We know at some point Harald decided to cut off his horns, which apparently was an action to symbolize his rejection of the violent and warrior driven history of his people and his dream to create a more peaceful Elbaf.....

But looking at the flashback it seems like he's been doing this for a while and people in Elbaf don't really seem to be against that the flashback is also going pretty damn fast we basically speed ran 20 years i thought he would've started with that but i don't see that there's a situation in Elbaf where people are rejecting his actions and as an extreme symbol he decided to do that.....

Now maybe we haven't reached that point in the flashback yet but what if as a requirement to join the WG he was requested to cut off his horns ? Maybe Imu knows the prophecy / murales we saw in Elbaf and if he had to ally with Elbaf's warriors he wanted to be sure the current ruler didn't have horns you know " just in case "

I think so,nobody cares to mention them when visited all the islands for close ties though so it was odd.So as to why he removed them it’s unknown possibly he visited some islands that where afraid of the horns that Oda didn’t show onscreen,but I would think imu would approve of the horns and snake eyes of Loki and Harald and such considering she herself looks demonic lol.

I don't think he necessarily asked him to take them off, I think it was more a sign of Haralds resolve that he won't work for imu and he won't allow Elbaf to become war mongers like they where in the past so he ripped his own horns out as a sign of defiance and to show he's serious about rehabilitation of Elbafs public image,

Imu didn't appreciate that and domi reversi him forcing the guards to attempt to kill him which they failed to do and then Loki came and was able to finish the job

But to save Haralds legacy Loki and Jarule agreed it would be best for Loki to take the fall

Thus when the smoke cleared Harald and a bunch of guards where dead, Jarule had a sword in his head and Loki looked like the bad guy

Loki would run away with that blame not realizing Shanks was on the island

Fast forward few years late, Shanks meets Loki on the high seas defeats him and takes him back to Elbaf

Where he laid chained to a tree since
