One Piece: Oda reveals the real reason Gol D. Roger never fought Imu
One Piece entered its Final Saga earlier this year, and fans have watched the greatest mysteries of the world unfold before them. After more than twenty years of hijinks galore, the narrative has moved on to the enigmatic leader of the World Government, Imu, and the long-concealed history of the Void Century. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now One question that's been gnawing at fans for ages is the reason Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King himself, didn't take a stand against Imu once he found out the truth. According to creator Eiichiro Oda, there's more than just an arbitrary need to have a classic final boss — and this is why Roger never fought Imu. In short, it's all about timing, prophecy and destiny. Spoilers ahead for recent chapters of the One Piece manga. Roger found the truth about the world 25 years ago Gol D. Roger and his fabled crew of the Roger Pirates made it to the last and final island, Laugh Tale, more than 25 years ago in story time. It's similar, in fact, to the journey of Gol D. Roger and his crew who sailed in search of and found the One Piece treasure. More interestingly, they learned the true history of the world. This included everything from the nature of the Void Century, the enigmatic nature of the 'D' clan, and the truth behind the Ancient Weapons. Roger dissolved his crew and surrendered himself to the World Government. One year later, he was executed, marking the beginning of the Great Pirate Era. So why did Roger not take all of this knowledge and apply it to the world? Oda confirms: Roger was too early to fight Imu As poorly retconned by Oda, the reason Roger didn't engage Imu was because the world was not prepared. When Roger got to Laugh Tale, one of the two 'sovereigns' required to bring down the Celestial Dragons hadn't even been born — Princess Shirahoshi, the Ancient Weapon Poseidon. 'We were too early! Someone will come and surpass us. I'm sure of it.' – Gol D. Roger Roger was the first to understand that he wasn't the chosen one to lead the final fight. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now That role was destined for another — for a person who could ascend when the moment called for it. Roger couldn't become Joy Boy or Nika Roger respected Joy Boy, this enigmatic figure from the past, and in fact laughed upon discovery of the prophecy. Roger understood that he himself couldn't have become Joy Boy. Not only was he too early, the legendary Devil Fruit connected to Joy Boy — the Gomu Gomu no Mi — hadn't chosen him. Instead, that fruit waited long centuries for someone like Monkey D. Luffy to inherit its power and awaken as Nika, the Warrior of Liberation. Roger was also dying from a disease Yet another even bigger reason Roger didn't go to war against Imu was his terminal illness. By the time he discovered the One Piece, Roger possessed just a few years to live. Even had he fought with all his might, he wouldn't have lived long enough to win the war. Instead of letting fate pass him by, Roger decided to inspire the next generation of pirates — trusting that one day someone would be strong enough to defeat Imu and free the world from tyranny. A new era has begun — And Imu's time is running out Now, 25 years later, Luffy is indeed doing just that, treading the same path created by Roger himself. Unlike Roger, Luffy is indeed not too early — he is the one of the prophecy. Shirahoshi is very much alive, the Ancient Weapons are beginning to make their presence felt and the Great War has just begun. Now that the Final Saga is well underway and secrets surrounding Imu are finally beginning to come to light, fans are more anxious than ever to see this epic confrontation. One Piece chapter 1151 release date and time One Piece Chapter 1151 will be officially available on June 8, 2025, but fans can read it for free on Manga Plus. In Japan, the new chapter is released at 12 AM JST on Monday, but most international readers (US and UK included) will be able to read it on the evening of Sunday, June 8. Roger's legacy lives on Roger probably didn't have to battle Imu, but his choice to wait for the right one revolutionized the world forever. Now, it's Luffy's turn to take on the World Government, learn the truth of the world, and maybe even become the next Joy Boy. The Final War is coming — and this time, Imu won't escape the storm.

One Piece Chapter 1151: Killingham's hybrid form finally revealed – Everything you need to know
One Piece Chapter 1151 has dropped, and it's a game-changer for fans of Eiichiro Oda's legendary manga. The spotlight shines on Killingham, whose long-awaited hybrid form is finally unveiled, sending shockwaves through the fandom. This article dives into the key moments of the chapter and explores Killingham's transformation. What Happens in One Piece Chapter 1151? Warning: Spoilers ahead for One Piece Chapter 1151. Killingham's Hybrid Form Revealed Saint Killingham, a member of the God's Knights and a major antagonist in the Elbaph Arc, unveils his Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Kirin hybrid form in Chapter 1151. Described as a centaur-like figure with the lower body of a qilin and a human upper body, Killingham's appearance includes short hair, long lower lashes, and sharp, spiky teeth, drawing comparisons to Fishman Hody Jones. He wields a horn to command his 'MMA' (nightmare creatures born from the dreams of Elbaph's children) and declares he will no longer hold back now that 'the Great One' (Imu) is present. This form is speculated to be his awakened state, enhancing his already formidable powers, which allow him to materialize elements from dreams into reality. Imu's Conquest and the Demon Army Imu, possessing Gunko's body, escalates the chaos in Elbaph's Sun World by unleashing a massive Conqueror's Haki attack, transforming more Giants into demonic monsters. These nightmare creatures, fueled by the fears of Elbaph's children, continue their rampage with the goal of breaking Elbaph's spirit. Imu's army, including demonized Giants like Dorry and Brogy, targets elder Giant Jarul, setting up a tense confrontation. Straw Hats Reunite and Luffy's Resolve Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji reunite with the rest of the Straw Hat crew, including Chopper, who saved Scopper Gaban using his Guard Point technique during a flashback. Gaban, revealed as a former member of Gol D. Roger's crew, humorously insists he was the second strongest (not third) after Roger, sparking comparisons to the Zoro-Sanji rivalry. Luffy senses Imu's powerful Haki and declares he 'understands now,' hinting at deeper insight into the situation, possibly related to the Voice of All Things (VOAT). Loki's Mysterious Role Loki, a key figure in the Elbaph Arc, is thanked by Mosa for an undisclosed action, suggesting his involvement in the unfolding events. He hints that his power will be crucial, potentially tied to the truth behind King Harald's death and Imu's control over Gunko. Loki's group, alongside Luffy and the Straw Hats, prepares to confront Imu's forces. One pieceOne Piece Chapter 1151 Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .

One Piece reveals Imu's terrifying powers: Here's everything we know so far
The mysterious big bad of the entire world finally takes center stage—and fans are shook. If you're not a diehard One Piece fan, you may be unfamiliar with Imu. In the fictional universe of this popular anime and manga series, Imu is the hooded person who runs the World Government from behind the scenes. Introduced during the Levely Arc, Imu has only just recently begun to display their true abilities and the current manga chapters are showing just how horrifying Imu can be. So, in Chapter 1150 of the One Piece manga, the creator Eiichiro Oda has finally been able to show us just how disturbing the powers of Imu truly are. Some of these powers are so unbelievably powerful, they can compare to the most powerful and infamous Devil Fruits known to exist. Whether you're a One Piece veteran or just getting your feet wet, here's an easily digestible, spoiler-free guide to every power Imu has displayed thus far. 1. Possession: Imu can take over other people's bodies Imu has the ability to completely take over the bodies of her followers, most notably the God's Knights. When she commandeers a knight named Gunko, she maneuvers the body like a puppet but much more thoroughly and terrifyingly than anything we've seen so far. This is a departure from Devil Fruits such as Doflamingo's, which control motion. Imu's control is absolute—mind, body, and soul. 2. Demon form: Imu transforms into a monster In an early scene, when Imu takes over a person's body, the victim's transformation is horrifying. Read on, and get your creative ideas boiling to include wings, tail, horns—the true demon aesthetic. Her devotees literally transform into these giant beastly shapes. Whether a part of this transformation suggests the legacy of an old race or lost force, like a Magellan-esque looking Magellan, the toxic jailer from the draw Impel Down arc. 3. Conqueror's haki so strong it crushes giants Haki is already one of the most powerful forces in the One Piece universe, but Imu raises the bar even higher. When she enters the battlefield, her Conqueror's Haki is described as so powerful that it automatically takes out Giant warriors. That even the very best of the best fighters, like Shanks, have never been shown doing it…until now. 4. Summoning weapons out of thin air Geared up, in the heat of battle, Imu conjures a giant gun and dagger out of thin air. This is deeper than Devil Fruits like Baby 5's, who turn her body into weapons. Imu doesn't change—she just makes sledgehammers and ice picks and fire hoses from thin air. 5. Instant teleportation using magic circles You don't often see teleportation in One Piece, but Imu just shifts through space without a care. It's one of the most incredible powers in a show filled with them. She can draw blazing magic circles in the air and magically teleport herself, her entire magical girl army, or even massive weapons, across enormous leaps. Unlike yet another charlatan who set up their plays in slow motion, she sets up her entire play mid-air and virtually instantaneously. She is faster than any God's Knight. 6. Demon contracts: Turning people into immortal monsters Remarkably, Imu is able to write contracts that transform individuals into monstrous, demon-like soldiers. These contracts don't require anyone's approval. She can impose them unilaterally on whomever she pleases. Once the agreement is reached, the individual turns into an unparalleled clearing-device of death, answering to Imu's every whim, similar to Sugar's doll slaves from Dressrosa. 7. Total mind control Arguably, one of the spookiest aspects of Imu's power is mind control. Once she has someone under her influence, they're not just physically altered—they're mentally controlled. This is even deeper than the deepest recorded Devil Fruit. It's even more impressive than Pudding's memory-altering powers or Breed's anime-only control collars. Is Imu the most powerful villain in One Piece? Fans are left wondering now, as the series continues to ramp up towards its conclusion, whether or not Imu is, in fact, the final boss of One Piece. Her powers aren't just physical—they're emotional, mental, and even magical. Whether her powers are attributed to a Devil Fruit, ancient technology, or something even older, it's obvious she's in a league of her own. As the One Piece manga heads into its last saga, look for Imu to get even more dangerous. We've just gotten a taste of her power and if that taste is this horrifying, the fully realized powers she could unleash would alter reality completely.
