One Piece Chapter 1139 surprised fans by setting the stage for the clash between Scopper Gaban and Monkey D. Luffy . Now, Chapter 1140 promises to be even more thrilling, with the otaku community eager to see how this legendary duel unfolds. Although there are disagreements about the outcome, one thing is certain: this fight will be the highlight of the next installment.
However, since official spoilers haven't been released yet, fans will have to wait a little longer to find out the details. Leaks usually start appearing halfway through the release week, so patience will be essential.
That said, some expectations can already be drawn based on what the Elbaph Arc has been presenting. The fight between Luffy and Gaban will certainly begin in Chapter 1140, but it may not conclude immediately, as other important events are underway.
The beginning of the confrontation between Gaban and Luffy
The chapter should open with Luffy questioning Gaban's motives for confronting him. As Gaban explains, Luffy will likely make some humorous comment about not wanting to fight someone Silvers Rayleigh's age. This, of course, will anger Gaban, who will respond with a powerful attack to show he's still in top form. Zoro's reaction, whether through words or expressions, will be crucial in highlighting the seriousness of the moment.
Realizing Gaban's strength, Luffy will jump into the spirit and activate his Gear 5 , leaving Gaban surprised by the transformation. A brief flashback to what Roger and his crew discovered in Laugh Tale could appear here, adding layers to the narrative before we return to the battle.
The fight promises to be evenly matched, with Gaban demonstrating all the experience of a veteran warrior, while Luffy relies on his inexhaustible energy and creativity. Both should express joy at facing a worthy opponent, despite their respective disadvantages.
Meanwhile, elsewhere on Elbaph, Sanji and other crew members will notice the intensity of the confrontation, especially if Haki and Gear 5 are involved. One of the Giants will explain Gaban's power to Sanji, while the cook will acknowledge Luffy's presence, heightening the tension.
One Piece Chapter 1140 Conclusion
The chapter should end with a focus on Figarland Shamrock and Gunko , who are likely arriving at their destination or plotting their next steps. A dialogue between them should reveal more about their objectives and set the stage for the introduction of the Holy Knight they requested as reinforcements.
One Piece Chapter 1140 will officially premiere on Monday, February 23, 2025, at midnight JST. However, fans will be able to watch the chapter for free on the Viz Media and Manga Plus .
