Following a week-long break, early story leaks for One Piece Chapter 1190 have surfaced across social media. Picking up after the cliffhanger in the previous chapter—where World Government leader Imu prepared to strike Luffy down with the Xingtian axe only to be intercepted by Scopper Gaban—here is a breakdown of what the latest leaks reveal.
Key Details from One Piece Chapter 1190
A summary of the leaked plot details for the upcoming chapter includes the following:
Gaban Teases Luffy
According to insider information shared on X (formerly Twitter) by Pew, the chapter is titled “The Person Whose Death Would Make People Happy.” The narrative opens with Gaban stepping in to protect Luffy, immediately giving the Straw Hat captain a hard time. Gaban remarks that it is quite pathetic for a battered veteran to have to step in and bail him out.
Challenging the Notion of the Pirate King
Gaban elaborates on his philosophy, stating that a true Pirate King is a figure whose passing brings celebration to their adversaries, given that everyone is vying for the ultimate seat of power. He bluntly advises Luffy that if he expects to claim the title without enduring brutal, life-or-death struggles, he might as well just pack up and go home.
Into the Depths with Imu
After delivering his reality check, Gaban tosses Luffy clear of the combat zone to face Imu solo. In response, Imu draws a traditional Japanese blade known as Honebami (the “Bone Eater”) to counter him. Gaban unleashes a powerful technique named Shinmon: Hassen – Fukushu, shattering the terrain beneath them and sending both fighters plunging into the underworld.
A Brutal Toll on Gaban
The chapter concludes on a grim note as Gaban sustains severe injuries. Leaks indicate he is left collapsed on the ground, having lost his left arm just below the elbow—a shocking sight that leaves Luffy horrified. Additionally, the leaks note that the manga will take another scheduled break next week.
