Chapter 1085: The Death of Nefertari Cobra. Franky stands on a beach holding a sign that says "Departures" while encouraging newly hatched turtles on their way to the sea. The printed caption reads: "Franky encouraging hatching turtles on their way to the sea." This is a reader-request cover illustration rather than a story page. Page 2: King Cobra stares at the Empty Throne in terror as Imu sits upon it, gasping that no one is ever supposed to sit there and calling Imu "the impossible ruler." Cobra says no individual should have the power to control the world. The Five Elders explain that Imu shall address two of the points being discussed, and that Cobra must answer a single question in return. Cobra coughs and asks, "Who are you...?" Imu's presence overturns the World Government's public myth of equal founders and an empty seat, revealing that the throne has a hidden sovereign after all. Page 3: Cobra says he has heard the name "Imu" before and that it could be a coincidence, but one of the First Twenty was also called that. Imu replies that such curiosity tilts on impertinence but will not be dignified with an answer. The ruler says the initial queries shall be addressed anyway: "D" is the moniker of their ancient enemy. Recently, the name has been appearing more frequently, though it is nothing but a faint echo, and those who carry the name no longer know its true meaning. Imu adds that this irritation endures because of Queen Lili's grave blunder 800 years ago, and the same can be said of the scholars investigating the so-called Void Century. Page 4: Imu explains that without Queen Lili's blunder, there would be no pirates chasing the Poneglyphs in pursuit of treasure, and those vexing relics would never have been scattered across the world. Cobra listens in shock as Imu says that the release of the Poneglyphs was the worst possible outcome for them. Imu wonders whether it was truly a mistake or actually part of a larger plan. The Five Elders begin to shift and prepare for violence, surrounding Cobra as the conversation turns deadly. The page links Lili's disappearance, the Poneglyphs, and the hidden history into a single forbidden truth. Page 5: Imu says the truth undoubtedly lies in the letter Lili left behind. Imu asks whether it was a deliberate choice to refer to her only as "Queen Lili of House Nefertari" and orders Cobra to divulge the full name written on her letter. Cobra realizes there is no chance he is leaving the room alive and accepts that the truth he has found is real. One of the Elders tells him there is no use telling lies, and another says that because Cobra saw the great Imu, his fate was decided the moment he entered. Cobra gathers himself, knowing that revealing Lili's full name will confirm the taboo that has doomed him. Page 6: Outside the throne chamber, Sabo senses that the atmosphere feels sinister. In the chamber, Cobra says the letter from Arabasta's ruler eight centuries ago was signed by Queen Nefertari: "D. Lili." Imu reacts instantly. Sabo bursts in with "Fire Fist!" and attacks the dark silhouettes around Cobra, while a note compares the moment to chess, where the king is checked by a knight while surrounded by his own pieces. Imu and the Elders retaliate with strange shadowy forms; one attack spears Cobra, and Sabo leaps into the middle of the danger. The page marks the moment Cobra's revelation of "D. Lili" triggers the murder attempt and Sabo's intervention. Page 7: Sabo stands alone against the monstrous silhouettes of Imu and the Five Elders. He had hoped to take them all out in one move, but realizes there was no way he could have known Hell was located at the very top of the world. Cobra, gravely wounded, recognizes him as Luffy's brother. Sabo asks if Cobra knows Luffy somehow. Cobra says their cause is more concerned with the monsters who sit above the kings and queens of the world, and asks why Sabo, a Revolutionary, still stepped in to save him. Sabo says Cobra sounds like Luffy and that Cobra once saved him too. When Cobra tells him to escape alone, Sabo refuses, saying he needs Cobra to deliver a message to Luffy-kun and Vivi. Page 8: Cobra tells Sabo to deliver his message. He says, "We share the moniker 'D.'!!" and explains that he finally understands the path Arabasta must follow. A memory shows Ace, Luffy, and Sabo as children discussing names: Ace asks whether Sabo wants a D in his name, and Sabo says who cares...
