One Piece Chapter 1177

Chapter 1177: “Anger”.

Reader request on the cover: “Robin planting flowers with moles”.

Chapter starts with Zoro and giants attacking domi reversed giants. Hajrudin uses “gungnir”, Dorry uses “ikoku sovereignty” and Stansein uses a new attack called “giant troma” (giant taikoi). The 3 attacks split some domi reversed giants’ bodies in half.

Zoro uses a new attack called “Santōryū: Akaoni Okomega” (Three Swords Style: Red Ogre Raging) that is similar to the “Rengoku Oni Giri” attack he used against King. The attack slices one of the Domi reversed giant’s head and body into pieces.

Cut to Chopper’s side, they are attacked by two Domi reversed giants. Chopper uses “Monster Point” and slaps one of the giants. The attack doesn’t damage the giant at first, but suddenly a shadow emerges from the giant’s body and he flips back to normal. Everyone is confused about how Chopper did it.

Cut to Sanji’s side. Nami is feeding Zeus with some “black balls” while someone is grabbing Killingham’s severed head (that is seriously injured). Then we discover that Sanji, Franky, and Jinbe defeated Killingham by separating his head, body, and legs, preventing him from fully regenerating (Jinbe is grabbing Killingham’s severed head, Franky is tying his legs, and Sanji is sitting on his body).

Franky: “If we put part of this in a box, he probably won’t be able to connect them back.”

Sanji: “I think there is a way to end them for good… Anyway, these are the so-called knights in charge of protecting the Holy Land?”

Franky: “We have become just that powerful, Sanji!! After all, Luffy himself is one of the Four Emperors!!”

Sanji: “I sure hope so, but it infuriates me that a small fry like him put Elbaph through such hardship!!”

Killingham: “Underestimate me while you can, insects…!!”

Jinbe: “There is still one of them left who hasn’t taken damage yet. Don’t let your guard down.”

Cut to Usopp’s side. Usopp runs to help Brook and faces Imu/Gunko (Usopp shouts at Imu/Gunko that he’s more angry than scared now). Usopp says that taking hostages or turning warriors against each other are cowardly tricks. Then Imu/Gunko hits Usopp severely and injures him.

Brook tries to help Usopp, but Imu/Gunko paralyzes Brook’s body from a distance. Usopp stands up and prepares to shoot Imu/Gunko with Kuro Kabuto.

Usopp: “Listen here!! Elbaph is a nation of warriors where they live by their swords and shields!!! If you want to conquer this place, then fight them head-on and fair and square, you wimp!!!”

Imu/Gunko: “A ruler… needs not dirty their own hands…”

Usopp shoots a “Skull Bombgrass,” but Imu/Gunko teleports in front of him, so the explosion covers them all. Usopp and Brook fall defeated while Imu/Gunko regenerates.

Cut to Luffy’s side. Nami is scolding Luffy and Loki while both (and Squirrel Ragnar) tremble with fear.

Nami: “How stupid can you two be?! You find yourself another weirdo of a friend!!”

“It is nice that you got rid of the monsters… but the fire he spit out made the wildfire even worse!”

“Isn’t it completely against our goal to help our enemies burn the land down like this?! Get a grip of yourselves!”

Ragnar tries to comfort Luffy by putting his hand on Luffy’s back (this panel is hilarious). But Luffy turns around and starts shouting angrily at Loki.

Luffy (very angry): “I got yelled at because of you, Loki!!”

Loki (very angry): “All I did was destroy the bastards who tarnished the land of Elbaph!!!”

“Why do I deserve to receive this scolding from your crewmate!?”

Then Loki shoots a huge lightning attack from his mouth at Luffy, but it doesn’t affect him (this scene is similar to when Enel used lightning attacks against Luffy, lol). Suddenly, Luffy and Loki sense an explosion.

In the epic final double-page spread of the chapter, Luffy, Loki, and Ragnar arrive at the site of the explosion and face Imu/Gunko. Luffy is shocked to see Usopp and Brook injured and unconscious on the ground.

Luffy: “Usopp!! Brook!!”

Loki: “Yes, this is the one…!! Whose ‘Haki’ reached all the way to the Underworld.”

Imu/Gunko: “…”

The chapter ends with Luffy very angry and glaring at Imu/Gunko…

Luffy: “Loki, I’m furious now.”

Loki: “And I never intended to go easy for this.”

Imu/Gunko: “Obey me… or die… Nika! Nidhogg! Our battle will divide this world!”

End of chapter, no break next week.
