Imu’s THIRD FORM is Insaneee!! One Piece Chapter 1191 Full Spoilers!
Imu transforms once again, this time into a muscular power. Is this a Hybrid Zoan form or something else entirely?
In the previous One Piece chapter, Gaban, the Left Arm of the Pirate King, loses his left arm in the biggest Haki clash yet against the King of the World, St. Nerona Imu.
One Piece Chapter 1191 is titled, “There’s Still Loki”
This chapter has 17 pages.
Editor’s note: “Luffy, who was wounded in the fierce battle against Imu, is…”
The chapter begins with Luffy, bloodied all over, crawling towards Gaban.
Luffy chooses not to turn back to his regular form or it would end badly for him and retain his injuries.
Luffy thanks Gaban for shielding him, and Gaban says he lost an arm, and that he hasn’t given up on Luffy and that he fought for Elbaph.
Luffy looks so worn out and exhausted.
Imu falls hard in the Underworld.
Some of the beasts starts approaching him and growls at him.
Imu releases a wave of CoC Haki, instantly causing the beasts to fall unconscious.
Imu says that he never expected it to turn out like this, and that he (Gaban) is from the Pirate King’s crew.
Lamenting not having wiped out everything alongside Rocks D. Xebec on God Valley 38 years ago, Imu transforms, his hand turning dark.
The pose he takes resembles his image in the Harley Mural in Chapter 1138.
And in an epic panel, Imu transforms, gets larger, grows bigger horns on his forehead like Hellboy, and unleashes a massive wave of Haki.
–Sun Realm, The Owl Library – Back Entrance, Underground–
We get a panel of Biblo, Chopper, and Robin, and they are happy that all the books are safe.
This is just my assumption but, is there a possibility that Chopper can’t understand Biblo, hence the confused look?
Saul asks Chopper to talk to Biblo and says that he is trying to tell him something, and then Biblo says something to Chopper, which makes him quite horrified.
The scene then cuts back to Gaban and Luffy.
Imu is now back at their location, emitting large waves of CoC Haki.
He pushes an enormous part of a branch of the Treasure Tree Adam upward with one hand.
Everything is shaking as Imu’s Haki is overwhelming, we see Luffy and Gaban falling around.
Imu’s new form is epic as he is more muscular than before.
He has a tattoo on his left hand like Shanks had but this is the more elaborate Abyssal Covenant, it seems.
His arms and legs are darkened, with two eye rings hovering over his wrists and one covering his waist.
He still has his tail but the three horned skulls on his robe are now a necklace on his chest area.
Imu has a total of 4 horns, with two prominently larger ones that recently jutted out of his forehead and gigantic black wings.
He holds the Honebami Toshiro sword that he used last chapter.
It seems Imu works like Frieza, slowly transforming through multiple forms until we see his true form.
Imu uses a new attack which Gaban and Luffy barely dodge, and Luffy is shocked to see Imu’s new form.
Luffy is still down, not up. Gaban is trying to shield him from Imu’s bone sword attack,
Just when Imu is about to finish off Gaban and Luffy, Hajrudin arrives and uses an uppercut attack called Gungnir (英雄の槍 – Spear of the Hero) against Imu, knocking him away and slamming him into the Treasure Tree Adam.
This is the technique he used to defeat Machvise in Dressrosa.
However, before he collides with it, he fires Omen bombs at Hajrudin.
Hajrudin blocks the bombs with his shield, which shatters from the blast, and it is after this counter that Imu is then sent crashing into the Treasure Tree Adam.
Hajrudin sees the condition of Gaban and Luffy, shocked to see Ya-san’s arm cut off.
Gaban tells Luffy to run from Elbaph with his crew; Gaban is thinking that Elbaph is done for.
Gaban tells Hajrudin that Imu is immortal and so they need to let Luffy escape.
However, Luffy says he will never do something like that, like running away, and Gaban tells him that he is useless and as good as dead anyway.
Luffy is kinda regretting his weakness right now.
He takes out a ton of food and eats it as fast as he can.
As Luffy says this, he suddenly becomes fat, with his cheeks bloated just like they are after he eats a large amount of food.
Gaban is dumbfounded by the logic behind this.
Either this is a part of Luffy’s Gear 5 powers, or Luffy “unconsciously” used the “Life Return” (Seimei Kikan) technique—a technique that grants the user complete control over their body and bodily functions, especially since he did fight one of its users, Rob Lucci.
Maybe Luffy controlled his “healing functions” with Seimei Kikan!
Luffy was in his usual form at one moment, then suddenly became fat when he thought about the food he had eaten earlier.
Then, just before firing the combo technique with Loki and Hajrudin, he returned to his normal form again.
Once again, Omen bombs are fired at them.
Hajrudin scoops up Luffy and Gaban with his right arm and shields them from the Omen bombs, taking the brunt of the attack on his back instead.
Hajrudin sets Gaban and Luffy down, telling Gaban that Elbaph will never yield since a warrior must always be ready to die in battle.
Gaban calls Hajrudin a fool for risking his life like that but Hajrudin says that even if he dies, there is still Loki.
Loki reciprocates the sentiment
At this instant, Loki comes running toward their location.
Preparing to attack, Loki calls Hajrudin his brother, seemingly repairing the rift between them.
Note: How Loki uses the word “kyoudai” (brother) here is kind of like how Franky calls Señor Pink “kyoudai” (brother) in Dressrosa.
The same with how Zoro calls Dorry and Brogy. It’s not in a blood-related sense (although that’s just how I sense it), but still, it’s a good start for these two brothers!
Luffy is energetic again. It looks like his wounds have recovered, although he is still covered in blood.
Loki and Hajrudin assume the stance for firing a Sovereignty attack. Loki wields Ragnir, while Hajrudin wields his axe. Luffy joins in as well.
Hajrudin with Axe, Loki with Ragnir, and Luffy just with both arms with the stance for Gomu Gomu no Bazooka, all attack Imu, which Imu dodges but is blown away by the impact due to their Conqueror’s Haki, confirming that Hajrudin is another Conqueror, inheriting it from his father Harald, King of Elbaph.
Together, the three use Triple General Gokoku Sovereignty, representing three different kings coming up against the King of the World.
End Note: “Strike Back!!!”
