## One Piece Chapter 1044, pages 3-3: Warrior of Liberation - Chapter: 1044 - Pages: 3-3 - Characters: Five Elders, Monkey D. Luffy, Kaido, CP0, Sun God Nika ### Summary Page 3: The scene shifts to the Holy Land Mary Geoise, inside Pangaea Castle's Hall of Power. The Five Elders question whether their priorities are straight after sacrificing one of their best agents and enraging Kaido, but they decide this may be better than the alternative because it was imperative to snuff out something problematic. They explain that, no matter the era, the World Government has always failed to acquire the Gomu-Gomu Fruit, even after 800 years of trying. One elder suggests it is almost as if the fruit itself is evading them. Another says all Zoan fruits have a will of their own and that this one carries the name of a god. They reveal that the Gomu-Gomu Fruit is actually the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan, Model: Nika.
