With the initial steps into Elbaf on the horizon,One PieceChapter #1130 could finally see the Straw Hat Pirates fully enter the legendary land of giants. With Luffy shattering the walls of the mysterious land, the stage seems set for their long-anticipated arrival. The latest chapter introduces a major revelation surrounding the “Sun God” figure—revealing it to be none other than a giant named Road, a character subtly teased years ago as the navigator of the New Giant Warrior Pirates. The chapter hints that Road created this strange island for his own entertainment.

The playful nature of Road, combined with the dynamic interactions of the Straw Hats suggests that Oda might be having some fun before diving into the grand adventure awaiting in Elbaf. This introduction to Elbaf has been refreshing, possiblyinspired by elementsOne Piecehasn’t explored. However, this detour now seems over, as the crew discovers a way out. Beyond the walls of this giant’s chamber might be the legendary land fans have waited for. Thankfully, the next chapter will be released in the upcoming issue ofWeekly Shōnen Jumpwithout breaks and will confirm if Elbaf truly lies ahead.

“Sun God’s” True Identity Revealed as the Straw Hats Find a Way Out

One PieceChapter #1129, titled"Livedolls,“continues with the “Sun God” chasing the Straw Hats as they race to find a way out of the city. Riding atop the gigantic cat “Iscat,” the crew charges through the streets, demolishing buildings in their path, further enraging the Sun God. Nami reveals that she has studied the schematics of this mysterious land and instructs the crew to head straight for the mirror wall. The Sun God confidently claims the Straw Hats won’t escape, even with their newfound knowledge of the city’s layout.

To stop them, he traps the crew in a net of metal wires, but Zoro and Sanji effortlessly tear through it, continuing their escape. The Sun God warns that even if they break free, they will soon be devoured by the “Ear God.” However, the townsfolk announce that Rabbit was already defeated, prompting the Sun God to praise the Straw Hats for their rebellion. Now, he eagerly waits to see what the crew will do next. As they approach the mirror wall, Usopp attempts to break through but only shatters the mirrors, realizing the barrier is stronger than expected.

One Piece’s New Arc Is Drawing From Something the Series Never Touched Before, & It’s Amazing

The Straw Hats' latest adventure takes inspiration from something the series never looked at before: tabletop role-playing games.

Luffy steps up,partially channeling Gear 4 into his hand, determined to smash the wall. A flashback reveals that the Sun God is Road, the New Giant Warrior Pirates' navigator, who lured the Straw Hats into his domain after they passed through the sleeping mist. Road sees no potential in the Straw Hats and schemes to capture them, just as he did with other humans. Back in the present, Road watches, curious about the crew’s next move, only to be struck by Nami’s lightning. The chapter ends with Luffy shattering the mirror wall, excited to see what lies beyond.

What Will Happen InOne PieceChapter #1130?

One PieceChapter #1130 will undoubtedly reveal what lies beyond Road’s miniature world. Given that Road was born on Elbaf, both his home and this miniature city are likely connected to the land of giants. As the Straw Hats and fans have long anticipated, the world beyond Road’s chamber couldvery well beOne Piece’slegendary Elbaf. If that is the case, the crew will likely focus on reuniting with their scattered companions and preparing for what awaits them. But there is still a chance that Road will pursue the Straw Hats, intrigued by their journey.

Alternatively, what lies beyond the wall may not be Elbaf but instead Road’s home on a deserted island. His behavior in the latest chapter, acting as the land’s master and assuming the role of the “Sun God” worshipped by giants, implies that he may have been exiled from his homeland. In response, he likely created this miniature world to rule over as its god, filling the void left by his banishment. It’s clear that Road’s role is far from over, andOne PieceChapter #1130 will reveal more about his true motives while escalating the excitement of the Elbaf arc.
