Prince Loki’s Past with Rocks D. Xebec Finally Revealed

The world of One Piece continues to deepen with shocking revelations about Prince Loki of Elbaf and his surprising connection to the legendary pirate Rocks D. Xebec. Between emotional flashbacks, high-stakes confrontations, and unexpected alliances, fans are finally learning the truth behind Loki’s mysterious past.

A Glimpse into Peace Before Chaos

Before the intensity kicks in, a new color spread showcases the Straw Hat Pirates relaxing in a tech-filled room, enjoying the latest episodes from the Egghead arc. It’s a brief but welcome moment of calm — a visual nod to fans and the return of the anime.

Beast Pirates Show Their Humanity

In a touching side story, Ulti hugs Page One after being saved by Yamato. This unexpected emotional scene offers a new look at the Beast Pirates, typically portrayed as ruthless. Even the fiercest pirates have a human side.

Sanji vs. Groggysaurus – A Battle for the Feast

On Mingjie Island, Zoro, Sanji, and Goldberg go on a meat-hunting mission and encounter a massive dinosaur named Groggysaurus. After a heated fight, Sanji prepares an exquisite dish from the beast, but the moment quickly turns into something more…

Luffy Confronts Prince Loki

During the feast, Luffy forces Loki to eat burning-hot meat and demands information about Shanks. Loki remains silent, stating that Luffy hasn’t earned that knowledge yet. This standoff reveals the tension between royalty and pirate, and sets the stage for something greater.

Elbaf Royals Under Threat

Loki then reveals a chilling truth: he is being targeted by the Holy Knights, showing that even Elbaf’s royal bloodlines aren’t immune to the influence and danger of the World Government. Power offers no protection when divine justice descends.

Flashback: Loki’s Encounter with Rocks D. Xebec

A flashback takes us into the darkest chapter of Loki’s youth, when he tried to join Rocks D. Xebec’s crew — one of the most dangerous in history. Xebec’s face remains hidden, but his cruelty is clear. Loki’s ambition nearly costs him his life until Whitebeard steps in and stops the carnage.

This painful moment opens Loki’s eyes. He realizes that true strength isn’t about domination, and compares his misguided quest for power to Luffy’s admiration of Shanks — a realization that may redefine his future.

Gaban’s Warning from the Underworld

In a parallel scene, Gaban, a former Roger Pirate, is seen battling illusions on Great Eirik Island, including one resembling Loki. After the fight, he says ominously:

“If even Elbaf isn’t safe anymore… this world is doomed.”

His words suggest an impending war that could shake the entire New World.

Jinbe Unleashes New Power

As fire rages in the forest, Jinbe arrives riding a river of sky clouds and uses a powerful new Fishman Karate technique to extinguish the flames. It’s a jaw-dropping display of raw strength and quick thinking that reminds everyone why he’s a core Straw Hat.

Who Is Gunko?

Just as the Straw Hats regroup aboard the Sval, a mysterious figure named Gunko appears at the ship’s bow. His sudden arrival stuns Nami, Usopp, Brook, and Jinbe, introducing a new layer of mystery. Is he friend or foe?

What’s Next for Loki and the Giants?

As Loki’s past with Rocks D. Xebec comes to light and threats from the Holy Knights loom large, one thing is clear — Elbaf’s fate is tied to the future of the world. The seeds of war are being planted, and a confrontation between gods and pirates seems inevitable.
