Chapter 1152: Revelations and a Dark Past
Previously, spoilers for Chapter 1152 took the story through three distinct timelines. The Straw Hats and the Giants, trapped in the Underworld, decided to ascend to the Sun World to learn how to defeat the Knights of God.
Meanwhile, Gaban revealed that Conqueror's Haki is the key to defeating them — and, surprisingly, stated that Zoro possesses this ability, though he has not yet fully mastered it.
Soon after, Luffy attempted to recruit Loki into his crew, but faced resistance. Gaban then intervened and revealed that he and Shanks were close to Elbaph when King Harald died. According to him, a strange Haki emanated from Aurust Castle at that tragic moment.

The narrative flashed forward 14 years, when Loki and Jarul were summoned to Harald's castle. There, they witnessed a coup: the king was assassinated by his own men. Nearby, Shanks spoke with Gaban, revealing a past connection with the king of Elbaph.
However, the One Piece manga delved even further into the past—exactly 109 years earlier . In this second flashback, we see young Harald attacking a castle while laughing maniacally, demanding to know who the "god" of the gifts was. In this chaotic scenario, someone stole Elbaph's forbidden Devil Fruit , deepening the mystery.
