One Piece Chapter 1131: Loki Vs Luffy

With the Elbaf Arc officially underway and the Straw Hat Pirates finally stepping onto the land of the Giants, anticipation for One Piece chapter 1131 is at an all-time high. Fans are eager to witness the thrilling events that will unfold in this legendary realm, as well as potential developments from across the world.

In this chapter, Luffy, who embodies the sun god Nika, is set to confront Loki, a formidable giant from Elbaf. The stage is being set for an epic clash, and the stakes couldn't be higher.

While the wait for chapter 1131 may feel lengthy, this break offers fans a chance to speculate on the exciting possibilities surrounding Elbaf and to gain insight into Oda's narrative direction. As the Elbaf Arc gains momentum, chapter 1131 promises to be a pivotal moment in the saga.

Loki vs. Luffy: The Setup in One Piece 1131

Loki's character has finally been revealed in One Piece, and the prospect of a showdown with Luffy looms large. Some fans might question how such a confrontation could occur, but the answer lies in Loki's current predicament—he is in chains. This revelation came to light in the previous chapter when Luffy sought him out. Although Luffy senses Loki's immense power, he does not appear to harbor hostility toward him.

Known as the Disgraced Prince of Elbaf, Loki's introduction has sparked intrigue. Despite the tension, their interaction suggests a complex relationship. Loki's declaration of being the Sun God and his intention to bring destruction adds layers to his character and the potential conflict with Luffy.

Oda's decision to have Luffy encounter Loki early in the arc hints at a significant development: Luffy may be the key to freeing him from his chains. As a Yonko, Luffy possesses the strength to break Loki's restraints, likely crafted from Sea Prism Stone due to his Devil Fruit abilities. However, this will require considerable effort on Luffy's part.

If Luffy succeeds in liberating Loki, it could lead to an intense battle in chapter 1131. Fans may wonder why Luffy would choose to free Loki. Perhaps Loki has something to offer in return, or Luffy, sensing no malice from him, believes he can handle any potential threat.

This situation mirrors Luffy's previous attempts to free Kaku and Lucci on Egghead, where he felt confident in his ability to manage the outcome. A similar dynamic may unfold in chapter 1131, and should Loki regain his powers, he will undoubtedly demonstrate that he is a force to be reckoned with.

Fun Loki Trivia

Did you know that Loki's character is inspired by Norse mythology? In those tales, Loki is known as a trickster god, often causing chaos but also playing a crucial role in the events leading to Ragnarok, the end of the world. This mythological background adds an intriguing layer to his character in One Piece, where he is portrayed as a complex figure with the potential for both destruction and redemption.

Final version in this week Color Spread is: "Straw Hat crew wearing wizard costumes (like Hogwarts' uniforms) are riding brooms in the sky together with a massive dragon".
- Chapter starts in "Bigstein Castle". Sanji carries Nami and jumps down from the castle with Luffy, Zoro and Usopp. They arrive to the land below and we can see that the entire kingdom is made of LEGO pieces with huge Yggdrasil tree in the middle.
- Zoro explains that he woke up at the other side of town and then he followed the noise to find Luffy defeating giant rabbit.
- Luffy says Usopp that he should be able to defeat that lion on his own. Usopp replies he was in a panic since he woke up while being eaten by the cat.
- Usopp says this kingdom is not Elbaf since their giant warrior outfits are normal size. So Staw Hat crew decides to go to the giant town to ask people what is happening.
- On the way to the town, they encounter a normal size bearded guy (wearing giant outfits) riding a giant grasshopper.

Bearded guy: "Oh, you guys are new here right? This is the "Land of Gods"!!"
- Bearded guy explains that this is a country ruled by "Gods": the "Ear God" (rabbit), the "Spike God" (hedgehog) and "Iskat" (17) the cat the rules the castle.
Bearded guy: "Recently, there's also the incident of "Ear God" that being burned to death outside of town..." Luffy: "Ah!! My bad, that~~~ uhbuh!!
- Usopp covers Luffy's mouth before Luffy talks too much, while Zoro, Nami and Sanji are whistling and looking the other way to hide that they killed the rabbit loool
Bearded guy: "If you are hungry, you can just come by our town to get some "rations".
But you can't go to the other side of the castle!!"
Luffy: "Huh? Why?"
Bearded guy: "The "Sun God's Temple" is there and it's guarded by ferocious guardians!!! NO ONE has ever approached the temple and RETURN to tell the tale!!"
Nami: "Wait... Don't phrase it like that, or he will..."
Luffy: "Hmmmm..."
- When Luffy hears bearded guy words his face changes to a very funny facial expression and runs right to the "Sun God's Temple". Zoro got interested when he hears there are guardian beasts and run after Luffy. Sanji scolds Zoro for always going with Luffy's flow lol
- As Luffy is running he wonders why the road seems so long and the entire kingdom looks so wide, but suddenly he hits something invisible and breaks it.
- It is revealed to be a giant mirror, the sky and wide scenery they see are all mirror reflection. The people in LEGO town are shocked to see the sky cracks above them. Luffy crosses that mirror and falls to the floor.
- After the mirror is broken, it's reveal that the entire LEGO kingdom is a model/diorama placed in a giant's room. The diorama is inside a huge cage covered with glass. From inside the glasses are mirrors but from outside look like a fish-tank (we can see the inside from the outside). The cage takes up a large part of the room (from top to bottom of the room) and the front part of the cage has a huge grille with a door (with the size for a giant).
- In the room there are some furniture too, like a giant wood table. And on top of the table there are fabrics, threads and a giant sewing machine. We can see a lot of LEGO pieces disperse in the floor of the room (where Luffy fell). Straw Hat crew is in shock.
Nami: "What is going on??"
Sanji: "If there are giants living on this side... it would be as if we are some pets being given an elaborated cage...!!"
Nami: "It can't be!!"
Mysterious person: "He~~~ey!! What was that noise? Are you on my side~~? Help me~~~"
Nami: "Eh!!?"
-
- That mysterious voice is Chopper, that is captive outside the cage (in the giant wood table). Zoro releases him and Chopper crying hugs Nami.
Chopper: "Waaaaaa~~~h!!! Everyone~~~!!! I'm so glad you guys found me~~~"
Nami: "Chopper you poor thing, it's alright now ♡"
Chopper: "My collar was so hard I couldn't get it off. I really thought this is the end for me~~~!!"
Nami: "Now you owe me one."
Chopper: "Huh...!?"
Usopp: "Nami, you were crying yourself not so long ago!!"
Usopp and Zoro examine all the stuff in the table. Luffy does the same in the floor.
Zoro: "A room built for giants... but with human size clothing..!! I suppose it's like changing clothes for dolls, huh?"
Usopp: "Makes me wonder if that "Sun God" is a really delicate person..."
Luffy: "This room is full of that blocks!!"
Sanji: "Yeah, this land is full of them.
The reason the smell was unbearable when we roasted the rabbit, was due to all the synthetic resin burning with it."
- Straw Hat crew look around and Sanji assumes that giant room is the "Sun God's Temple". Zoro says people in costume that live in diorama town are like pet for "Sun God" to observe them via glass.
- Suddenly 2 new giant animal appear in the giant room: "Hilmungandr" (a giant snake, its name is based
on the World Serpent "Jörmungandr" in Norse mythology) and "Muginn" (a giant raven with a skull on its head, its name is a mix of "Muninn" and "Huginn", Odin's ravens in Norse mythology).
- Luffy and the other fight against them, wrecking stuff of the room and making room catch fire.
- Cut to the outside the room, we see that "Sun God" is walking down a corridor towards the room (room door has a "Z" symbol).
- "Sun God" is a giant far larger than any normal giant we saw so far (except Oars) but we can't see yet if "Sun God" is a man or a woman. "Sun God" is a slim giant that wears a black long tunic and a deer skull (with big antlers and mane) that covers his/her face. And "Sun God" has a staff and a shield with Sun symbol.
- "Sun God" notices that smoke and noise are coming from the room, so "Sun God" enters the room and is shocked to see Luffy destroying it while they are fighting the animals.
- Luffy is using Gear 5 and laughing in the middle of fire that is burning the room. Then he uses "Gomu Gomu no Dawn Pistol" to defeat the giant snake. On the other hand, Zoro defeats giant crow.
- Then Straw Hat crew enters into the diorama to evade "Sun God" and they encounter again "Iskat" (giant cat they defeated in the castle). Iskat is very angry but they hit Iskat's head and get on it while Nami shows them a map she found.
Chopper: "The cat said "I will remember this!!"."
Nami: "Okay!! But more importantly, look.
We didn't get what we were looking for... but we did find the blueprint of this land of blocks!!"
Sanji: "In other words... a map!?"
Zoro: "He's coming!!!"
- In the AMAZING final double page of the chapter, we see Straw Hat crew riding Iskat through the diorama town with "Sun God" chasing them. Town people are in shock when they see enraged "Sun God"...
Sun God: "How dare you~~~!!!"
Nami: "Guys get ready!! If we run at a straight line there's another mirror ahead!!
If we destroy it along with the wall, we will be "outside"!!!"
Luffy: "Yes!! Let get out of here!!!"
Town people: "What~~~!? The "Sun God" is furious!!"
Sun God: "You won't get away...!!!"
End of the chapter. NO break next week.

Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest Chapter 168

Great Power Pierces Stone is the 168th chapter of Fairy Tail: 100 Years Quest by Hiro Mashima and Atsuo Ueda, a sequel to Fairy Tail. Brandish saves Lucy from being devoured by Mercphobia, and the two ladies concentrate on a way to destroy the Dragonization Lacrima affecting the Water Dragon God and the citizens of Ermina Town, and also encasing Aquarius's key. 

I’m not sure what everyone is thinking, but all Giant Lucy did was use Mercuphobia's body to break the Lacrima and revert everyone back to normal. She didn’t actually defeat him, and honestly, I doubt she could have taken him down in a one-on-one fight. Remember how Makarov held back Acnologia? I love Lucy, but what on earth just happened in this chapter? It’s so disappointing! I guess I’ll have to wait for more information and see what new demons and enemies show up, but this whole Aquarius situation feels so random. She just appeared out of nowhere, and the Lacrima keeps getting bigger—it doesn’t make any sense. I need more details because this feels so haphazard, ugh. Why didn’t Mashima introduce any new Star Dress combinations or something cool like the Celestial Spirit King? It’s really frustrating. If Lucy’s fight was this underwhelming, I can’t even imagine how a future Erza fight will turn out. She’ll probably just take down a dragon with a single hit again. The main issue is that Mercuphobia’s full-powered attacks were just minor annoyances for Lucy. Plus, she was able to physically overpower him quite easily. The damage he took was from being thrown into the Lacrima, not from the Lacrima itself. Honestly, I think the biggest problem with this fight was the execution rather than the outcome. We could have had an epic water battle between Giant Lucy and Mercuphobia. And they could have used Aquarius to wrap up that boring plotline. Lucy still has a contract with Aquarius, which is why she was able to summon her during the Elentir arc. She doesn’t need to physically touch Aquarius’s key to summon her; it just has to be nearby. Overall, I feel like the fight was a missed opportunity. A team-up between Brandish and Lucy could have been way more exciting than what we actually got.
