Summary

One PieceEpisode 1124 was rather interesting. It marked the end of the Straw Hats' chase after the renegade who betrayed Vegapunk and everyone else on the island. From the looks of it, Robin and Atlas were successful in locating York and capturing her before things could become any worse.

The Straw Hats were relieved to find the scientist unharmed and alive. They knew if they hadn’t reached him on time, the scientist might not have lived to see another day. As the episode continued, the Marines could be seen arriving near the waters of Egghead Island.

What Will The Straw Hats Do Next?

After rescuing Dr. Vegapunk, the Straw Hats need to move quickly and leave the island. The scientist has already stated that he has no desire to stay on the island, as the World Government is actively hunting him down. If he lingers for too long on the island, it could end up costing his life. As previously stated,the Marines led by Kizaru have alreadyarrived near Egghead Island, and they will finish the job that CP0 failed to do.

Unfortunately for the pirates, Kizaru isn’t the only notable Marine on the ships. There are more than five Vice Admirals who are accompanying Kizaru, and they will join the fight as well. The Straw Hats have many powerful fighters in their ranks, but they won’t be able to stop the Marinesand the CP0 agents.So, their best chance of survival is escaping from Egghead Island.

One Piece Episode 1125 Release Date

One Piece Episode 1125 is going to be released on July 21, 2025. The episode is titled “A Clash of Two Men’s Determination! Kizaru and Sentomaru.” As the name suggests, the episode will focus on Sentomaru and Kizaru. In the previous episode, there was a short flashback where a young Sentomaru could be seen walking with Kizaru, suggesting that the two have known each other for a long time. The upcoming episode will not only show how the fight plays out, but it will also shed some light on the past of Sentomaru and Kizaru.

Coming to the fight itself, fans can expect quality animation and the scenes to be extended.Toei Animation has developed a penchant forimproving on the fights in the manga by extending them ever so slightly. The pacing of the episode won’t be too slow either, so it should cover an entire manga chapter.

Can Sentomaru Stop Kizaru?

The question on everyone’s mind will be whether Sentomaru can stop Kizaru’s advance, and the short answer is no. Sentomaru is not a pushover, but Kizaru is in a league of his own. The Admiral has the power of the Pika Pika no Mi, a Logia-type Devil Fruit that allows its user to manipulate light at will. A kick powered by the Devil Fruit can cause serious injuries to a person. Additionally, it allows Kizaru to move at incredibly fast speeds, making it nearly impossible to stop the attack.

However, an excellent user of Observation Haki can avoid strikes.Sentomaru has access to Armament andObservation Haki, but he specializes in the former. He can emit Haki, which only the best Armament users can do. Unfortunately, Kizaru can also utilize Armament Haki Emission, and he likely has greater control over it. Keeping in mind their respective skills, it is safe to say that Kizaru will emerge triumphant.

Luffy Will Face Kizaru Next

Once Kizaru beats Sentomaru, fans can expect to see Luffy fight the Admiral. The two met in Sabaody and Marineford, and both times Kizaru had the advantage, but things won’t be the same this time around. Since their last encounter, Luffy has learned to use all three types of Haki, and he has mastered the use of his Devil Fruit.

Luffy’s biggest weapon in thefight will be Advanced Conqueror’s Haki.It is the strongest type of Haki, and it increases the efficacy of attacks. However, Kizaru does have more experience, and he will be looking forward to putting it to good use.
