• Luffy and Loki will soon join the fight against Immu.

In the final chapter of One Piece, fans saw the conclusion of the story Loki told the group in the underworld of Elbaf. now, Everyone knows how much Loki sacrificed for his father and country.And at least for him, things going forward will go smoothly.

You can go on. I will fly to the realm of the sun. — Loki to the New Giant Warrior Pirates

However, Elbaf is in considerable danger, and all current fighters in the Underworld are aware of this. This is why everyone wants to head to the solar world as quickly as possible. The New Giant Warrior Pirates have already begun returning their ships to the Sun Kingdom, and the Straw Hat Pirates are doing the same.

meantime, Loki and Luffy plan to fly to the solar system on their own after dealing with the Drogar that fell into the Underworld.. One Piece Chapter 1172 will most definitely show all these fighters returning to the solar realm.

before that happens, Oda will probably give you a glimpse into the appearance of Imu and the development process of the central region.. It is likely that Imu has enslaved more people to the devil and that Elbaf is on the verge of destruction. It is at this point that fans should expect Luffy and Loki's intervention in One Piece Chapter 1172. Things will get even more exciting as these two heroes approach Immu for the first time.

Luffy and Loki VS Imu and the Demon Army Begin

one piece Chapter 1172 very clearly marks the beginning of the Battle of Elbaf against Imu and his demon army. This fight has been hyped for months now, and now it's time for Oda to finally get the win.

With the new Giant Warrior Pirates already leading the way with Wings of the Pirate King, Scopper, Gaban, and Chopper, fans know there will be plenty of interesting matchups over the next few chapters. At the same time, all attention will be on Luffy and Loki, who will immediately begin fighting against the demon army..

Allow Mu to show you the power of God! — Immu of Elbaf

Fans have missed Luffy's Gear 5 transformation immensely.Because it certainly took a lot for the Loki flashbacks to fully flesh out the events that happened 14 years ago. Now it's time for Loki and Luffy to show off all they have, and they might as well attack Imu in the next chapter of the manga.

Loki's Devil Fruit may be revealed in OP 1172.

• Loki's Devil Fruit has legendary powers.

• Even Imu is wary of Loki's power.

One of the most anticipated reveals one piece Chapter 1172 is related to Loki's devil fruit abilities.. As fans may remember, his Devil Fruit was first teased in episode 1170, and in episode 1171, he showed fans the power of his beloved weapon, Ragnir. in other words, Loki's greatest source of power is not Ragnir.

Fans are well aware of the fact that he wields the power of Elbaf's legendary Devil Fruit.It hasn't been revealed in the story yet.

Only after he started fighting against Imu and his army. Loki will unleash the full power of his devil fruitAnd that might happen in One Piece 1172. Fans are eagerly waiting for Loki to reach the solar realm to properly show off his powers and give fans an idea of ​​what his Devil Fruit is all about.

Come on, Loki! Show what that legendary power can do! — Harold to Loki

For the longest time, Fans are debating whether Loki has the powers of Fenrir or the dragon Nidhogg.. Currently, the answer to Loki's Devil Fruit appears to be the latter. This is because Loki clearly stated in the previous chapter that he can fly with his own abilities.. One Piece Chapter 1172 may solve this mystery once and for all and reveal Loki's great power. One more time for the fans. Things are only going to get more interesting from now on, as Loki will truly show what he can do in battle as he fights alongside the sun god Nika.

The Holy Knights will rush from Elbaf.

It goes without saying that Oda will focus a lot on the characters of Luffy and Loki in One Piece 1172, but the Holy Knights can never be forgotten either. Elbaf currently has two Paladins active in Killingham and Sommers. Both of these characters are incredibly powerful, and fans will get to see them wreak a lot of havoc, especially on Elbaf, who is currently fighting on Imu's side. Due to the presence of the Sovereign of the World, they may even become stronger than before, which really makes things very interesting.

until now, The Paladins were greatly disappointed.Except for a select few individuals like Gunko and Shamrock. Sommers and Killingham need to do a lot more to truly make it happen, and One Piece 1172 could give them the chance to do just that.

It should also be noted that the upcoming chapter of the manga will definitely not be the most intense chapter. Considering that the flashback just ended, Oda will slowly build up to the main battle, meaning at least a few build-up chapters should be expected.. Nonetheless, this chapter should have some exciting reveals and fans will have plenty to find interesting.

at the same time, one piece I think I'll probably just keep running from here. The past few weeks have been plagued with all kinds of disruptions, and now is the time for comics to build some consistency. At the very least, fans will get to see the manga continue for another three weeks before it takes a break again, which is enough time for Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates to excite all readers once again.
