Luffy and Loki vs Imu! The Battle of THREE GODS! One Piece Chapter 1175 Spoilers!

In the previous One Piece chapter, Loki in his Nidhogg Dragon form rescues the falling children and families of Elbaph.

One Piece Chapter 1175 is titled, “Nidhogg” 

This chapter has 17 pages.

The Japanese title is “Nīzu Hogg” in Japanese; the kanji 雷竜 mean “Thunder Dragon”.

Again, this is connected to the nightmares from the Giant children in Chapter 1142: “What I’m Afraid Of”, which identify Nidhogg as a thunder dragon.

The Reader Request in the cover: “Sabo being surrounded by baby koalas.” 

Koala is having tea and eucalyptus leaves with an adult koala while Sabo looks after the baby koalas.

This is clearly a pun on Koala’s name.

Luffy vs Sommers

The chapter starts with Sanji releasing Robin from Sommers’ vines with “Diable Jambe” to destroy the vines.

Loki and Luffy (who still wears his original Elbaph clothes, not Oda’s mistake in the last chapter, which will definitely be fixed in the upcoming Volume 115) take the children and their relatives to the western village near where Jarul is.

Sommers is furious because the plan has gone awry, so he decides to shoot thorns at the children’s relatives, who are still injured from trying to save the children a little while earlier. But the children decide to line up in front of their relatives to stop the thorns the same way the older folk tried to protect them as they were falling.
Fortunately, Zoro arrives just in the nick of time and blocks all the Thorns, earning praise from Luffy as he tells Sommers not to forget Zoro’s name.
Luffy grabs a lightning bolt from a cloud with his left hand and uses his right hand as a telescopic sight to keep his eyes on Sommers to create a new technique called “Gomu Gomu no Dawn Thor Rifle!”

This giant lightning-infused punch savagely hits Sommers’ body and electrocutes him at the same time. 

This attack is so powerful that Sommers’ body breaks into pieces, such that Sommers loses his teeth as his face splits into several parts.

But that’s not where Sommers’ suffering ends as in another double-page spread, Loki, yes in his world’s largest dragon form, stomps on Sommers like a bug!

So now where do the Holy Knights scale?

It seems like Luffy had a harde time handling Kizaru than any of the Holy Knights but Kizaru’s Logia and Sommers’ regeneration were different and it seems like Kizaru did not panic as much.

Then again, he was near an Elder and he did not really want to kill his best friend Vegapunk but was pushing himself to do so.

Nidhogg and the God Fruits

Then, in a brief flashback, Jarul remembers what happened when Loki left the “Aurust Castle” after he killed Harald. 

Jarul explains what fruit Loki ate to Gaban and Shanks.

It is the “Ryu Ryu no Mi” (Dragon-Dragon Fruit), Mythical Zoan, Model Nidhogg. 

Whoever eats it will obtain the form of the world’s largest dragon. 

However, the limit to how large one can get while wielding its power is dependent on the user’s original size. 

And so, compared to a human, a giant can draw out more of the fruit’s potential… and an Ancient Giant can draw out even more than a giant. 

At its largest, this thunder-breathing pitch-black dragon is said to be able to turn day into night when it takes flight.

It is forbidden not because of its power but because of its guardian, Ragnir or Ratatoskr the ICe Squirrel, which transferred into the legendary ancient hammer Ragnir used by the War God who was the original Nidhogg.

The transfer of the spirit sounds more like the process of a weapon eating a Devil Fruit, which explains why modern Ragnir looks different from the original Ice Squirrel.

By the way, when Jarul talks about the legend of Elbaph’s warrior deity, we see an image of that battle.

On one side, the warrior deity of Elbaph (who is a very muscular giant with a white beard and mustache and a horned helmet) is holding the hammer “Ragnir” in his hands.

Next to him is Ratatoskr, the “Ice Squirrel,” who looks slightly different from the present-day Ragnir squirrel, since Ratatoskr has pointy ears and the markings on its fur are a bit different.

Then we see the “Sun God,” who looks very similar to the image we saw of him in Chapter 1136: “The Land that Awaits the Sun” (with the sword, shield, loincloth, and hair like Luffy’s Gear 5).

However, the image shown in the chapter doesn’t look like an illustration taken from a book or something like that—it looks like a real scene of the two of them fighting. 

And the “Sun God” could easily pass for Luffy as they look almost identical.

The Battle of Gods!

Facing off against the MMAs in the final double-spread of the chapter, Loki shoots a massive lightning attack from his mouth called “Thor Heim” (雷界 in Japanese; the kanji mean “Thunder World”). 

That is two Thor-related attacks already and this one causes a huge explosion with normal and black lightning to destroy most of the MMA monsters.

The black lightning could be Conqueror’s Haki, which would nullify a fruit’s effects.

The chapter ends with Imu/Gunko looking at Loki, Luffy, and Ragnir as the MMA monsters vanish. 

Then there is a change of scene to Mary Geoise. The real Imu is standing in the “Room of Flowers,” and we see Imu’s furious eyes realizing that another old enemy, Nidhogg, was confirmed to be in Elbaph all along.

Weekly Shonen Jump cover for One Piece and a color spread in Chapter 1176, likely to hype up the battle of the gods!

There will be NO BREAK NEXT WEEK

One Piece Chapter 1176 will be released on March 9, 2026.
