One Piece Chapter 1131: Loki of the Realm of the Dead

Luffy bursts forward with arms raised, shouting ALL RIGHT!! FINALLY AT ELBAF!! with massive sound effects. The crew reacts in awe at the enormous tree and landscape. Speech bubbles read: I KNEW THIS WAS ELBAF!! WE'VE WANTED TO COME HERE FOR AGES!! EVERYTHING'S SO BIG!! I WONDER IF USOPP KNOWS YET!! SAY, IS THERE ANYTHING AT THE TOP OF THIS TREE. YOU DON'T SAY! GOOD FOR YOU, NOW... THE STRONGEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD AND BIRTHPLACE OF WAR, HUHI! FOR REALI! HEY... A voice asks HEY... GUESS IT MAKES SENSE THAT YOU GUYS WOULD BE THE STRONGEST!! IT'S THE FIRST TIME I SAW A BUNCH OF GIANTS IN ONE PLACE! Luffy grins and says BEING ON OLD MAN DORRY AND BROGY'S SHIP EARLIER WAS CRAZY...

Explosive impact and smoke fill the upper panels as someone yells LISTEN WHEN I'M TALKING TO YOU!! HEY!!! with large SFX. A fox-like creature growls GRRRRR. In the lower panel a massive chained figure labeled THE ACCURSED PRINCE OF ELBAF LOKI SPECIAL BOUNTY 2.6 BILLION looms. Loki declares I'M THE "SUN GOD" FROM ALL THE LEGENDS WE PASS DOWN ON THIS ISLAND!! DON'T SPEAK UNLESS I SAY SO, HUMAN. A small figure stands before him as Loki asks TELL ME... WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY PREDICAMENTI

A bandaged face speaks from the shadows: "THEY WANTED TO SWEEP ME UNDER THE RUG! I'VE BEEN PRAYING FOR RELEASE EVER SINCE. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT'S BEEN SIX YEARSI HOW SHREWD OF YOU. THEIR INTENT WASN'T TO MERELY CATCH ME THOUGH." Luffy stares in shock, sweat flying, as the voice continues, "...YOU GOT CAUGHT. IT LOOKS LIKE..." The scene widens to reveal a massive ruined landscape dominated by the towering Treasure Tree Adam. The chained figure declares, "BUT THESE CHAINS ARE MADE OF SEA STONE, I CAN'T UNLEASH MY POWER. I'M BOUND HERE IN WARLAND TO 'TREASURE TREE ADAM'!" Explosions and impact lines erupt as the giant looms over a tiny Luffy. With a wide grin the prisoner offers, "YOU WANNA MAKE A DEAL, LUFFYI SO, I HAVE A PROPOSAL FOR YOU, LOPPY!!" Luffy cries out, "LUFFY!!"

The giant continues his offer while chained to the ground: "IN RETURN, I'LL WIPE OUT ANY PIRATE CREW YOU WANT. I'LL MAKE SURE TO NOT LEAVE A TRACE. SOUNDS GOOD, RIGHTI THE KEY IS SOMEWHERE IN THE VILLAGE." Luffy, still bound, reacts with surprise, "HMI" The giant smiles and adds, "YOU'RE A PIRATE, RIGHTI I WANT YOU TO UNDO MY CHAINS BY DAWN. I CAN'T FORCE YOU MYSELF, BUT..." The view shifts to a dark pit filled with flames and skeletal remains. The giant explains, "CRIMINALS AND THE CONDEMNED ARE DROPPED DOWN HERE. IT'S A PRISON AND AN EXECUTION GROUND!! IT'S A PLACE NO ONE DARES TO APPROACH. THIS IS THE REALM OF THE DEAD, YOU SEE. THE LOWEST LAYER OF ELBAF. AH! I ALMOST FORGOT TO SAY!"

Massive beasts with horns and fur surround the giant, who explains, "THEY OFTEN COME UP HERE TO SEE THEIR MASTER... IT'S BECAUSE I BEFRIENDED THEM WHEN I WAS A KID. BUT YOU SHOULD WATCH YOUR STEP AROUND THESE BEASTS. I DON'T KNOW WHAT BROUGHT YOU TO THIS FORSAKEN MOUNTAIN." The giant warns, "AND THIS WORLD OF THE DEAD BELONGS TO THE SUN, YOU FOOLISH HUMAN!! YOU'LL FIND THE BONES OF COUNTLESS HUMANS AND GIANTS. IF YOU DIG UP THE SNOW AROUND HERE..." Luffy watches in awe as the creatures rampage. The giant declares, "THESE THINGS HAVE LIVED ON THIS MOUNTAIN FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS. IN OUR LEGENDS, THEY ALSO CALL THIS... THE 'FIRST WORLD'!!" Luffy grins excitedly, "NOW, IF YOU CROSS ME, THESE GUYS WON'T TAKE THAT LIGHTLY...!! THIS SURE IS NOSTALGIC! WOW!"

The giant's beasts react wildly as a familiar silhouette appears. Luffy shouts, "...SHANKSI!" The chained figure stares in disbelief, "YES, BUT... THIS CAN'T BE!!" Shanks grins broadly and speaks, "YOUR ONLY SALVATION FROM BEING DEVOURED IS TO DRESS YOURSELF IN PUTRID SMELLING CLOTHES!! THE SAME FATE IS IN STORE FOR ANY PUNY HUMAN WHO DARES TO DEFY ELBAF." Onlookers whisper, "WHO IS THIS GUYI IS IT OKAY IF WE LET HIM GET TORN APARTI DOES HE HAVE ANYTHING GOOD ON HIMI! MASTER! THAT'S A LITTLE HARSH..." Reactions spread: "SHANKS CAME HEREI WHATI! WHO THE HELL IS THIS LITTLE GUYI! HOW CAN HE HAVE TAMED THE MOUNTAIN BEASTSI! THAT EMPEROR... RED-HAIRED SHANKS!!" Shanks addresses the giant, "DID YOU SAY... WHATI!"

A helmeted giant roars with fury, eyes bulging and teeth bared as impact lines explode around him. Nearby, a wild-haired figure with a massive grin growls "GRRRR" while a swirling fist attack smashes forward. The giant's horned head thrashes violently, sending debris and chains flying as a massive impact erupts with "BWAHH!" Luffy tumbles through the air, limbs flailing. In the lower panels a panicked voice cries "I WAS JUST KIDDING!" while another desperately shouts "WAIT!! HOLD YOUR HORSES!!" A final scream rings out: "G'YAAAAH!!! LORD LOKI!!!"

Loki's massive form looms as Luffy is hurled backward amid swirling clouds and debris. A voice snaps "...TO JOKE ABOUT!!" while Luffy shouts "THAT'S NOT SOMETHING..." From the giant's side come the threats "DON'T TALK BACK TO HIM, YOU FOOL!" and "NEXT TIME YOU SAY SOMETHING LIKE THAT, I'LL BURY YOU IN THAT TREE!" "I DON'T CARE IF YOU CAN'T MOVE, DON'T PISS ME OFF." Luffy struggles on the ground, thinking "I CAN'T EVEN MOVE RIGHT NOW!!" and noting "THIS GUY... IF HE GETS THESE SHACKLES OFF, I'LL GIVE HIM A QUICK DEATH!!" A close-up shows the giant's grinning face as he says "...THAT'S NOT SOMETHING I CAN JUST TELL YOU." Luffy stares upward in shock, thinking "NO WAY WAS HE JUST RUNNING AN ERRAND!! IS HE STILL ON ELBAFI!" and asking "WHY DID SHANKS COME ALL THE WAY OUT HEREI"

The ground shakes violently around a distant castle as characters cry "WE'RE GONNA DIE!!" and "IT'S SHAKING LIKE CRAZY NOW!!" Lightning-like impacts strike with "GYAAH!!" A masked giant with goggles and a fur-collared coat lands heavily, declaring "I KNEW IT!!" and "IT'S GOTTA BE THAT SUN GOD GUY WITHOUT THE MASK!!" Observers react in panic: "HE LOOKS LIKE HE WAS JUST STRUCK BY LIGHTNING!" "NO WAY!" and "DOES THAT MEAN...I!" A final voice yells "SOMEONE'S COMING!! I DON'T KNOW WHO IT IS!!"

The Thousand Sunny sails through stormy skies as crew members shout "THEY MIGHT KNOW THE MASTERS!!" "WE HAVE TO THINK THIS THROUGH!" "HOLD ON!!" and "GUESS I'VE GOT NO CHOICE BUT TO CUT 'EM UP..." A voice exclaims "THE SUNNYI THIS IS UNREAL!" while another warns "THEY'VE GOT THE SUNNY TOO!!" and notes "LOOKS LIKE THAT WOMAN AND THE BIG GUY ARE CHASING AFTER HIM!" Below, a horned warrior charges forward yelling "I BET THERE'S A VILLAGE OR SOMETHING UP HERE!" and "WE'VE JUST GOTTA BOOK IT!! FULL SPEED AHEAD!!" A final urgent cry warns "IF THEY CATCH US, IT'S ALL OVER!"

The New Giant Pirates row with all their might, shouting "HEAVE HO!" as they surge forward. Hajrudin roars triumphantly, "I'M GLAD WE MADE IT IN TIME!" while another crewmate yells, "ALL RIGHT! I CAUGHT A MOOSE!" and "DIGA GA GA!!" A sign reads "WARLAND - REALM OF THE DEAD." On Elbaf, the giants battle a massive serpent. "ON ELBAF HAS TO NO ONE... FEAR!! ♪" one sings. "NO ONE... THAT'S IT! WE GOT IT!" The New Giant Pirates banner declares their self-proclaimed alliance with the Straw Hat Fleet. Their five-member crew is shown: Captain Hajrudin, Cook Goldberg, Ship Doctor Gerd, Shipwright Stansen, and Navigator Rodo. A flashback panel recounts Hajrudin's rescue by the Straw Hats on Dressrosa and his rise among the Grand Fleet. Hajrudin declares, "THEIR MEAT IS TO DIE FOR! I'M SURE IT'LL PLEASE THE STRAW HATS!!" as the crew hauls the giant catch. A note reads, "A REFRESHER ON HAJRUDIN." The giants cheer, "DON'T EMBARRASS ME. WE'LL MANAGE. THIS MEAT IS FOR OUR SAVIORS!" and "IT'S SNOWING, SO THERE'S NO SUN STONE PINDERS."

Aboard the ship sailing the seas around Elbaf, a nervous voice exclaims, "I WAS NERVOUS!! I HAVE NO EXPERIENCE CUTTING WOMEN'S HAIR..." Brook adds, "MY CHEST IS BEATING LIKE A DRUM, EVEN THOUGH I DON'T HAVE A HEART! YOHO HO HO!" Robin asks from the crow's nest, "H-H-HOW IS IT, ROBIN-SAN!I" The crew reacts with delight. Franky says, "IT REALLY SUITS HER. GOOD JOB, BROOK." Brook replies, "THAT LOOK REALLY TAKES ME BACK." Usopp cheers, "IT'S SUPER CUTE, ROBIN!" while Brook jokes, "KYA HA HA! YOU DON'T HAVE A HEART!I THAT GOES AGAINST SCIENCE! SKULL JOKE!!" Robin smiles warmly and says, "THANKS, BROOK!" Brook answers, "YOHO HO HO! YOU'RE WELCOME!" as Robin admires her new haircut, declaring, "IT'S PERFECT!"

Robin smiles as the crew reunites with emotion. Franky says, "YOU HAD THAT STYLE WHEN YOU MET US TOO, ROBIN!" Brook cries, "AW MAN, REUNIONS ALWAYS MAKE ME CRY!" Usopp adds, "I'M SURE HE'LL RECOGNIZE IT AND BE THRILLED!" Franky continues, "I SEE, SO YOUR HAIR WAS LIKE THIS BACK WHEN YOU FIRST MET SAUL!!" The Thousand Sunny sails through clearing fog toward a massive island. A voice shouts, "LAND HO! THE FOG IS CLEAR AND IT'S SMOOTH SAILING!" The crew stares in awe: "IT'S HUGE!! EVEN THE ISLAND IS A GIANT!!" and "LET'S DOCK AND HAVE OURSELVES A GOOD DRINK!" Cheers erupt, "WOOOO OOOO!!" Suddenly, something happens to Saul. Luffy appears in a small panel looking shocked. The page ends with "ONE PIECE...CH.1131 /END" and a note about Elbaf.
