Chapter 1,154: “I Can't Even Die”
🌀 My own detailed breakdown — 17 pages of lore, emotion, and legacy!
---
🔥 Golden Inari Pilgrimage & The Oni Plague (Vol. 38):
Yamato, Ulti, Page One, O-Chō, and Kikunojo visit a forgotten, ruined grave in Ringo — the resting place of a hero born in West Blue.
---
💥 Flashbacks & Elbaph's Collapse:
The chapter opens with a brief on Big Mom's tragic childhood. A deadly snowstorm devastates Elbaph — no food, no hunting, total famine.
👑 Prince Loki, still a child, returns to the castle… only to be violently rejected by Queen Estrid, his own mother.
> Estrid: “It’s all his fault! This country is doomed! Destroy his eyes! I never want to see this monster again!!”
Loki is dragged away, screaming in despair. Elbaph nears total ruin.
---
🛡️ The Return of King Harald:
Just as things spiral, King Harald arrives — defending Hajrudin and calling for unity.
> Harald: “Humans may be small, but they sent boats full of food without question. We eat with gratitude. When they need us, we will answer. We all share this small world!”
🌍 A powerful double spread shows human ships lined up on Elbaph’s shores, filled with supplies. An unforgettable act of solidarity.

⚰️ Farewells & New Beginnings:
Queen Estrid dies. Ida moves to the Underworld and opens the bar we know from Shanks’ storyline.
🛠️ Meanwhile, Loki is abused by Estrid’s younger brother — who later disappears, seemingly killed by Underworld creatures. Loki's eyes are hidden by bandages, blamed on an "eye disease".
---
🕰️ 56 Years Ago – The Truth About Galleyra:
Harald and Jarul discuss the Levely and a lost group of elite giant warriors: “Galleyra — Warriors of the Giant Hammers”.
> Jarul: “They were captured. Over 100 ancient giants... gone. Some say they're frozen somewhere to this day.”
👀 We glimpse frozen silhouettes — including giants Nami and Chopper once saw in Punk Hazard...
---
🕳️ 48 Years Ago – Loki’s Despair:
After chaos in the villages, Loki attempts to end his life by leaping from the "Solar World" to the "Underworld".
> Loki: “I can’t even die…”
Suddenly, a mountain splits open — and a new figure arrives...
---
⚓ The Arrival of Legends:
Shiki, Whitebeard, Buckingham Stussy… and one mystery man.
> “This kid has devil eyes,” Shiki laughs.
“He’s huge… and crying,” Whitebeard remarks.
Then it happens…
🔥 A DOUBLE-PAGE REVEAL: Rocks D. Xebec Appears!
Same eyes as Teach. Same nose. Same terrifying aura.
> Narrator: “Harald met this man at the Levely 8 years ago… the one who escaped after killing an Admiral. A living legend hunted by the World Government.”
Rocks D. Xebec:
> “Boy! Answer these two questions. Is this the land of giants — Elbaph!? And is HARALD here!?”
👑 Father of Blackbeard. Former Captain of the Rocks Pirates. The legend lives again.
