One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers were expected to see the next fights against the Holy Knights begin with Nico Robin and Scopper Gaban heading to confront them. Unofficially leaked via reputable sources earlier this week, the latest spoilers allege the upcoming issue does exactly that with a focus on both Gaban and Robin.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers likewise continue the focus from the previous issue, which saw the Holy Knights officially state their demands to Elbaph’s Giants. The previous issue also updates the status of the Straw Hats who were previously confirmed as being captured by the Holy Knights.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers claim a Holy Knight suffers lasting damage for the first time
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers begin with the issue’s title, which is alleged to be “Ronia,” referencing the young Giant child of the same name who is one of the many kidnapped. The spoilers then address the issue’s cover story, which continues Yamato’s pilgrimage in Wano. They’re seen heading to meet with Kawamatsu in order to return a hat, with Page One and Ulti seen following them in the background.
Beginning the issue’s story content, Gunko is seen forcing the chapter’s titular child Ronia toward the edge of a cliff. While the other kids are nervous and telling her to come back, she remains calm and reassures them there’s nothing to worry about. Gunko then tells Sommer that the first child is ready to fall, prompting him to speak to Elbaph again. He tells the country that if they don’t make a decision in 30 seconds, Ronia will be dropped off the cliff.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers see him address Elder Jarul directly, demanding he order the teachers to burn the nation’s schools and libraries down. Some Giants call such action crazy for the fact that it would destroy texts and history which is thousands of years old. Others argue that the children’s lives are more important. Some are even saying that the problem isn’t the Holy Knights’ demands, but the act of surrendering to these foreign invaders.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers then shift focus back to Nico Robin, who tells Tony Tony Chopper to stay back and not fight. She, however, admits she can’t control herself anymore and intends to attack. Nami is heard saying that even the most fiendish enemies won’t take children hostage. Ripley, Franky, and several other Giants are then seen splitting off into groups to go save the children. Sommers then continues his speech, demanding that not a single book survive.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers see him clearly say that his intention is to erase Elbaph’s culture and history. Robin then attacks him with her Devil Fruit powers, slapping him and causing him to fall down. She then grabs his neck and breaks his back, causing him to cough up blood. However, Robin quickly realizes this is ineffective, and that he too is immortal like Gunko. Likewise, Sommers gets back up and heals his neck, saying that there are only 20 seconds left.
Usopp says that Sommers must be a zombie, as Robin grabs the Holy Knight with her body and jumps off a nearby cliff with him. He asks if she intends to take her own life, and that while her feelings move him he has no intention of dying with her. Robin says she knows he’s immortal, but is instead planning on moving the children out of his power’s effective range. If she’s able to do so, then the others can save the children without issue.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers see Sommers attack her while mocking her plan, revealing this Robin to be a clone. The real Robin then goes to rescue the Straw Hats, while Sommers says Jarul has 10 seconds left and demands an answer. He tells Gunko to let the children speak, with Ylva saying that she loves school, her friends there, the library, and the books within it. She also explains she was taught not to hurt others or do things they don’t like.
She likewise explains that if the school and library disappeared to save her life, it would hurt everyone, so she tells Jarul (who is her great-grandfather of several generations) not to worry. Ylva begins crying and trembling, but says she’s been lucky to live her life so far. Sommers then counts down from three to zero, with Jarul then giving in and ordering the school and library be burnt down.
One Piece chapter 1148 spoilers then see Sommers somehow return and capture the real Robin before she’s able to free the other Straw Hats. However, as he goes to reach for her, his hand has been cut off, and isn’t growing back. As Sommers reacts to this in shock, he says it’s been a long time since he and Gaba last met. The issue ended with an angry and resolute Gaban seen slashing Sommers across the chest, seemingly using Armament Haki.
