With Oda-sensei reportedly taking a break after this installment, the stakes are being raised to an absolute peak as the Straw Hats and the Giants launch their counter-attack against Imu’s terrifying "Demon Army."

Here is a breakdown of the major plot points and theories circulating for the upcoming chapter.

The Clash of the Titans: Dorry vs. Brogy

One of the most chaotic developments involves the legendary co-captains, Dorry and Brogy. In the previous chapter, Zoro’s quick thinking led to a startling accident: the two "Domi Reversi'd" giants inadvertently attacked one another.

FULL SUMMARY FOR 1174

MORE DETAILS OF THE CHAPTER, THANKS TO REDON FROM ARLONG PARK FORUMS. CHAPTER OF 17 PAGES.

• CHAPTER 1,174: “THE STRONGEST THING IN THE WORLD”.

• READER REQUEST IN THE COVER: “ROGER TAMING AND WALKING A T-REX LIKE IF IT’S A PUPPY”. ROGER IS GIVING A PIECE OF MEAT TO A T-REX THAT WEARS ROGER’S HAT (THE HAT WITH HIS JOLLY ROGER, NOT THE STRAW HAT HE GAVE TO SHANKS).

• CHAPTER STARTS WHERE LAST ONE ENDED. SOMMERS IS SHOCKED BECAUSE NIKA MMA MONSTER DESTROYED THE SHIP AND CREATED A HUGE HOLE IN THE SEA CLOUDS, SO NOW THEY CAN’T TAKE THE CHILDREN OFF THE ISLAND.

• SOMMERS TRIES TO STOP THE KIDS BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL WALKING TOWARD THE DOCK DUE TO GUNKO’S ARROW, BUT HE CAN’T STOP THEM. BUT SUDDENLY SOMMERS’ FACE CHANGES TO A MOCKING, SINISTER, AND DISGUSTING EXPRESSION (HE’S EVEN DROOLING WITH PLEASURE).

SOMMERS: “WHAT THE HELL… THIS WAY OF KILLING THEM IS DIVINE!!! THIS IS WORTH A SHOT!! BESIDES, IT WILL ALSO BE THE GREAT ONE’S MISTAKE!! SINCE TOOK OVER GUNKO’S BODY!! THE TEARS!!! THE CALLINGS FOR EACH OTHER!!! THIS LOVE BETWEEN A PARENT AND THEIR CHILD!!! NOW THIS… THIS IS “EMOTION”!!”

• THEN SOMMERS TALKS TO THE CHILDREN, SAYING THAT THEIR ORIGINAL PLAN WAS TO DELIVER THEM SAFELY TO THE HOLY LAND. BUT NOW THAT THE SHIP AND THE SEA CLOUDS ARE ALL GONE DUE TO AN UNFORTUNATE ACCIDENT, SO PLAN HAS CHANGED.

SOMMERS (EXCITED): “THAT MEANS YOU ALL WILL HAVE A HILARIU… I MEAN, A TERRIBLE DEATH CAUSED BY FALLING…!!”

• COLON CRIES SAYING HE WON’T DO ANY BAD THING ANYMORE. THEN WE SEE SMALL FLASHBACKS OF GIANT CHILDREN BEING SCOLDED BY THEIR PARENTS. FOR EXAMPLE, COLON WON A “DUEL” TO ANOTHER CHILD AND KEPT HIS TOY (A LITTLE ROBOT THAT LOOKS LIKE EMETH). RIPLEY SCOLDED COLON TELLING HIM THAT SINCE HE’S MUCH STRONGER THAN THE OTHER CHILDREN, HE SHOULD BE KIND TO THEM.

• WHEN COLON IS ABOUT TO REACH THE EDGE OF THE DOCK, RIPLEY APPEARS IN FRONT OF HIM AND HUGS HIM (INJURING HERSELF WITH THE THORNS).

COLON: “WAHHHHH!!! I DON’T WANT TO DIE!!! MOMMMMMY!!!”

RIPLEY: “COLON!! COME HERE…!! SORRY… I COULDN’T STOP THIS…”

COLON: “GET AWAY FROM ME, MOMMY!! YOU GONNA DIE!!!”

RIPLEY: “I DON’T CARE. I WON’T LET YOU DIE ALONE!!”

• THEN, IN A VERY SAD DOUBLE PAGE, WE SEE RIPLEY AND ALL OTHER RELATIVES (INCLUDING OIMO, ANGE AND ROAD) HUGGING THE CHILDREN AND FALLING DOWN ALL TOGETHER TO THE “UNDERWORLD”.

• BUT SUDDENLY, THE ENTIRE ELBAPH BEGINS TO TREMBLE AND SOMETHING COLOSSAL APPEARS. GIANT LUFFY GEAR 5 IS WITH THAT CREATURE AND SAVES THE CHILDREN AND THEIR RELATIVES. THE CREATURE IS LOKI TRANSFORMED INTO A DRAGON, AND THE CHILDREN AND RELATIVES FALL ALL ON HIS BACK.

• DRAGON LOKI IS A BLACK WESTERN DRAGON, A MIX BETWEEN A “GAME OF THRONES” DRAGON BUT WITH THE HEAD OF “SLEEPING BEAUTY” DRAGON (AND LOKI’S HORNS OF COURSE). LOKI’S EYES LOOK LIKE BIG MOM’S OR DOMI REVERSED CREATURES.

•After Loki's appearance, it begins to snow in Elbaph and lightning strikes all over the island. That's thanks to the powers of Loki's Devil Fruit (no Devil Fruit name in this chapter). • ⁠Dragon Loki gets the children and their relatives to safety and then he starts fighting the MMA monsters. At the same time, the sound of drums begins to be heard on the island. Giants are surprised to hear the drums, Sommers is furious, and Imu/Gunko observes what is happening in silence.

Giants: "What's this rhythm!? Elbaph itself is shaking!!"

• ⁠In ONE OF THE MOST EPIC last double pages in “One Piece”, we see dragon Loki destroying everything in his path and defeating many MMA monsters. Luffy Gear 5 and squirrel Ragnir are on top of Loki's head. Luffy is around 4 times bigger than squirrel Ragnir. But giant Luffy is just about a third of one of Loki's horns, so image how ENORMOUS is dragon Loki. • ⁠Chapter ends with some final words from Jarul...

Jarul: "On the day of a lightning “snow storm”...!! A “gigantic beast” appears, covering the sky... And along with the “Drum of Liberation”... the “Sun God” descends...!!!"

Luffy: "Ahhyahyahya!! This is so funny!! Look at how big you are!!!"

Fans expect Chapter 1174 to lean into this classic rivalry. If these two monsters become preoccupied with their age-old competition over who is stronger, it could inadvertently neutralize the biggest threat to Elbaf. This distraction would give Zoro the opening he needs to pursue the primary objective: rescuing Elder Jarul. It might also leave Zoro free to cross swords with Saint Killingham, whose MMA-style combat has already proven devastating.

Brook and the Mystery of Princess Shuri

Brook’s storyline is taking a surprisingly emotional turn. His encounter with Gunko revealed to be Princess Shuri is peeling back layers of a tragic past. We know Brook feels a deep debt to Shuri’s father, but the exact nature of their history remains shrouded in mystery.

In the upcoming chapter, we are likely to see Brook press Shuri further, attempting to break Imu’s psychological hold over her. There is heavy speculation that we might finally get a flashback explaining how Shuri was forced to kill her father under Imu's influence before assuming her identity in Marijoa. If Brook can successfully reach her, it could turn the tide for the resistance in Elbaf.

The Battle for the Owl’s Library

While the heavy hitters clash, the heart of Elbaf’s culture the Owl’s Library is under threat. With the library previously set ablaze, the Straw Hats are shifting into rescue mode. Jinbe’s mastery of water makes him the perfect candidate to douse the flames, while Sanji is expected to face off against Saint Sommers. The goal is clear: save the future of Elbaf by protecting its children and its knowledge, specifically freeing Nico Robin from her current constraints.

The Return of the King: Luffy and Loki

The most anticipated moment, however, is the return of Luffy and Loki from the Underworld. After Loki displayed the staggering power of his legendary hammer, Ragnir, it’s only a matter of time before these two "monsters" ascend to the Sun Realm.

Chapter 1174 could finally reveal the true nature of Loki’s Devil Fruit, which has only been teased in silhouette. More importantly, it sets the stage for the first real confrontation between Luffy the embodiment of the Sun God Nika and Imu. Given that Nika is Imu’s greatest fear, their eventual meeting is the spark that will likely ignite the final stages of the Elbaf war.

Release Date Reminder

One Piece Chapter 1174 Official is scheduled to officially drop on February 15, 2026 (available on Manga Plus and Shonen Jump). With a break expected the following week, expect Oda to leave us on a massive cliffhanger that will have the community theorizing for the next fortnight.

About

One Piece Manga Online
One Piece (Japanese: ワンピース Hepburn: Wan Pisu) is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It has been serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shonen Jump magazine since July 22, 1997, and has been collected into 94 tankobon volumes.

Enter Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year-old boy that defies your standard definition of a pirate. Rather than the popular persona of a wicked, hardened, toothless pirate who ransacks villages for fun, Luffy’s reason for being a pirate is one of pure wonder; the thought of an exciting adventure and meeting new and intriguing people, along with finding One Piece, are his reasons of becoming a pirate. Following in the footsteps of his childhood hero, Luffy and his crew travel across the Grand Line, experiencing crazy adventures, unveiling dark mysteries and battling strong enemies, all in order to reach One Piece. 

One Piece Chapter 1173: Everything You Need to Know Before It Drops

If you've been following the Elbaph arc even loosely, you already know things are about to get intense. The story has been building momentum for weeks now, and with One Piece Chapter 1173 on the horizon, it feels like Eiichiro Oda is finally ready to cash in on everything he's been setting up. No more slow burns, no more moving pieces around the board the battlefield is about to get loud.

Where We Left Off

Chapter 1172, titled "The Elbaph I Dreamed Of," was exactly the kind of dense, setup-heavy chapter that Oda specializes in. On the surface, it might have felt like a lot of exposition, but underneath all of it, something genuinely important shifted. Gabban laid bare the full scope of what the Knights of God are actually planning kidnapping ten giant children and dragging them off to Mary Geoise as leverage, essentially forcing Elbaph into becoming battle slaves for the World Government. It's the kind of cruelty that makes your skin crawl, and Oda made sure you felt every bit of it.

 

But the real gut punch of the chapter belonged to Jarul. Using a Den Den Mushi broadcast, he publicly called out the World Government's betrayal from fourteen years ago for the entire island to hear. Just like that, the secret was out. The weight Loki had been carrying silently, for over a decade finally came off his shoulders. And Jarul didn't just drop information. He reignited something in the people of Elbaph. His words ended with a declaration that, honestly, sent chills: Elbaph is ready to go to war.

Oh, and then the chapter closed with Zoro. Because of course it did. He showed up at the village alongside Hajrudin and Stansen, looked the situation dead in the eye, and confidently said he "has a plan." The fandom has been dissecting that line ever since, and for good reason  Zoro doesn't say things like that without meaning it.

When Does Chapter 1173 Come Out?

One Piece Chapter 1173 is set to release on February 8, 2026. If you want to read it the second it goes live, head over to either Manga Plus by Shueisha or Viz Media. Both platforms carry the latest chapters for free, and they drop them simultaneously with the Japanese release, so there's no reason to wait.

What Should We Expect?

Now here's where things get fun. Nothing about Chapter 1173 has been officially confirmed, but based on where Chapter 1172 left us, there's a lot to chew on.

Zoro's "plan" is probably the first thing we'll see. His track record with grand strategies is, to put it gently, a mixed bag but that's kind of why fans love it. The leading theory right now is that his plan involves reigniting the legendary rivalry between Dorry and Brogy, the two giant warriors who've been demonized and turned against the village. If Zoro can snap them out of it or even just stall them it buys the Straw Hats some desperately needed time without anyone having to throw a single punch at a demonized giant directly. It's the kind of clever, borderline ridiculous move that fits Zoro perfectly.

Sanji could be making his move soon, too. Chapter 1172 set up a situation near the Walrus School and Owl Library where some of the Straw Hat crew are still being held. And with the destruction of the library hitting Robin especially hard emotionally, it feels like Oda is priming that beat for a payoff. Sanji is perfectly positioned to be the one who makes it happen, and given how much ground the Straw Hats have to cover across the battlefield, his window of action might come sooner than expected.

Finally, the Knights of God might stop being background noise. Sommers and Killingham have been hovering over the arc like a storm cloud for chapters now, and the shift from setup to actual confrontation feels overdue. Chapter 1173 could very well be the point where Oda stops hinting and starts locking in fights real matchups, real stakes, no more positioning.

The Bigger Picture

What makes this particular moment in the Elbaph arc so compelling isn't just the action it's the fact that for the first time, the people of the island are actually fighting back. Jarul's broadcast didn't just expose the World Government. It united a nation of giants around a single cause. The story of Elbaph, for all its pain and grief, is no longer headed toward tragedy. It's headed toward something else entirely, and One Piece Chapter 1173 might just be the chapter where that becomes undeniable.

Whether you're caught up or finally deciding to dive back in, February 8th is a date worth marking.

The Trial Begins: Why Episode 4 of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms Changes Everything

A breakdown of the biggest episode yet and why Dunk's story just got a lot more complicated.

There's a moment in the new trailer for Episode 4 of Knight of the Seven Kingdoms that stopped me cold. It's not an action beat. It's not a dramatic reveal. It's simply the weight of what's about to happen settling in and if you've been following Dunk and Egg's story from the start, you already know this episode is going to hit different.

Episode 4 is where the season truly turns. Written by George R.R. Martin himself, it plants the show firmly at its midpoint and cranks the tension up to a level we haven't seen yet. And it does so through one of the most fascinating pieces of Westerosi lore to ever make it to the screen: the Trial of Seven.

So, What Exactly Is a Trial of Seven?

If you're not deep into the lore, don't worry the show does a great job of laying it out. A Trial of Seven is essentially trial by combat, but scaled up to something almost theatrical in its scope. When someone is accused of a crime serious enough to warrant it, the accused has to gather six other knights to fight alongside him. The accuser does the same. Seven against seven, blades drawn, and the side that wins or the side whose opponents yield determines guilt or innocence.

It sounds dramatic because it is. The whole concept is rooted in the Faith of the Seven and the traditions the Andals brought with them when they invaded Westeros long before the events of the show. The idea was that seven champions on each side would channel divine justice that the gods themselves would decide the outcome through combat. Whether you buy that or not, the ritual stuck, and it's been an incredibly rare and serious affair ever since.

How Did We Get Here?

It all comes back to Dunk and a puppet show, of all things.

After Prince Aerion Targaryen behaves himself in a way that can only be described as disgraceful toward a young girl named Tanzel during a traveling puppet show, Dunk steps in. He strikes Aerion. And in Westeros, laying hands on a prince of the ruling family isn't just rude — it's one of the most serious offenses imaginable. We're talking potential mutilation. We're talking the end of everything Dunk has ever dreamed of becoming.

So Aerion does what any smart but cowardly man in power would do. He calls for a Trial of Seven.

And here's the thing Aerion knows exactly what he's doing. A one-on-one duel with Dunk? He'd lose. Anyone watching the show has seen enough to know that. But a Trial of Seven gives him the political cover to make this less about raw combat and more about who Dunk can get to stand beside him. It's a power move disguised as justice, and it's one of the more chilling things the show has done so far.

The Real Challenge: Building a Team

If the trial itself is the climax, then the buildup Dunk scrambling to find six knights willing to fight for him is where Episode 4 really lives and breathes.

This isn't easy. Standing up for a common-born man against a Targaryen prince isn't just a personal risk. It's a political one. The memory of the Blackfyre Rebellion and the Dance of the Dragons still haunts Westeros, and nobody wants to be the lord who accidentally reignites that fire. So most nobles are keeping their heads down, and Dunk is left knocking on doors that nobody wants to open.

But a few do.

Raymun Fossaway, Dunk's closest friend and squire, is the obvious first pick and in a neat bit of storytelling, he gets knighted by Lionel Baratheon during the episode, making him eligible to fight. His cousin, Steffon Fossaway, is another likely champion. Lionel Baratheon himself, a powerful lord with no love for the Targaryens, steps up as well.

Then there are the wilder picks. Robin Rysling, who Egg cheerfully describes as a little bit crazy and absolutely eager for a fight. Humphrey Harding, a knight nursing a serious grudge after Aerion behaved dishonorably during a joust and left him injured. Both men have reasons to want Aerion to lose, and in a situation like this, a personal vendetta can be just as valuable as loyalty.

That leaves one spot open. The seventh knight. And the show is clearly saving that one for maximum impact either at the very end of Episode 4 or early in Episode 5. If there's one piece of this puzzle that's going to make people lose their minds online, it's that.

Egg's Quiet Sacrifice

For all the political maneuvering and sword-rattling, the emotional core of this episode belongs to Egg  or rather, Prince Aegon Targaryen, because that's who he actually is, and the show has made sure Dunk knows it now too.

The reveal of Egg's true identity hit hard when it first landed, and the fallout is still very much alive. There's a real sting of betrayal there, even though Egg's reasons for keeping quiet were never selfish. But what really gets you in Episode 4 is what Egg does next. He strips the Targaryen red from his armor. He chooses Dunk.

That's not a small thing. Egg isn't just standing beside his friend he's publicly distancing himself from his own family, from the most powerful dynasty in the realm, because he believes in the man he's been riding with. It's one of the show's most understated and genuinely moving beats, and it says more about who Egg is than any amount of dialogue could.

The Council, the Politics, and the Stakes

Overseeing all of this is a council that reads like a who's who of Westerosi power players. Baelor Targaryen, the Hand of the King, is there and he's sympathetic to Dunk, which matters more than it might seem at first. Maekar Targaryen, Aerion's father, is also present, though in a somewhat amusing twist, he apparently didn't even know the Trial of Seven was happening until it was already in motion. It's a choice the writers made deliberately it lets Baelor explain the trial's rules naturally to the audience without it feeling like a lecture.

And then there's Leo Longthorn Tyrell, who brings exactly the kind of cold, aristocratic antagonism you'd expect from that name. The political landscape around this trial is layered, and Episode 4 does a good job of making you feel just how dangerous it is for someone like Dunk to be standing in that room.

What Comes Next

The trial itself isn't happening in Episode 4 that's Episode 5's job, and it sounds like it's going to be something special. Episode 6, from what we can gather, will deal with the fallout and start laying the groundwork for whatever comes next in the series. With a six-episode season and a second season already planned, the pacing feels deliberate and tight.

Episode 4 is dropping early this weekend, timed to land alongside the Super Bowl, which should give fans plenty to chew on before the week starts.

But honestly? The wait for Episode 5 is going to feel longer than it should. Because Episode 4 isn't just setting up the trial it's setting up everything. Dunk's honor, Egg's loyalty, Aerion's cowardice, and a whole web of political tension that's been building since day one. The Trial of Seven isn't just a plot device. It's the moment this show has been building toward all season.

And when it finally arrives, Westeros is going to remember it for a long time.
