Welcome to our in-depth analysis of One Piece Chapter 1140, where we explore the intricate details and thrilling developments in this beloved manga series. As we dive into the events of this chapter, we will uncover the motivations of key characters and the implications of their actions. Join us on this exciting journey through the world of One Piece!

Overview of the Chapter

The title of this chapter is “Scopper Gaban”! As we explore the events, we find that Luffy activates Gear 5 and transforms into “Nika, the Sun God,” while Zoro draws his sword to join the fight. However, Yaa-san surprisingly surrenders without much resistance. What was Gaban’s true intention?

Gaban’s Purpose in Surrendering

Gaban’s main goal was to assess whether Luffy could be trusted. He was not measuring Luffy’s strength; rather, he was testing his character. Gaban provocatively challenges Luffy, questioning if he can take the key and mocking Shanks. Despite this, Luffy focuses on retrieving the key without attacking Gaban, demonstrating his trustworthiness. Gaban likely concluded that Luffy could be trusted to release Loki if he handed over the key.

The Power of the “Pentagram (Abyss)”

The chapter introduces a magical circle that allows for spatial movement, referred to as the “Pentagram (Abyss).” This power is created by Gunko, who previously mentioned calling Shamrock. Initially thought to be a power of the Gorosei, it seems to be granted by Imu. This suggests that only one person can use the “Pentagram” at a time, which explains why only Saturn could use it during the Egghead incident.

Somers and Gillingham Saints

Two members of the God Knights, Somers and Gillingham, are summoned. Both have “Saint” in their names, unlike Shamrock. Somers is likely a descendant of the Shepherd family, while Gillingham may possess the abilities of a mythical beast, possibly related to the Uma Uma no Mi.

Shamrock’s Return to the Holy Land

Shamrock’s return to Mariejois indicates a serious food crisis that needs addressing. This suggests that Shamrock may confront the Revolutionary Army, and it seems unlikely that he will meet Luffy.

The Meaning of the “Game”

The God Knights aim to abduct children from “Walrus School,” but it appears they cannot use the “Pentagram” without a mark. Shamrock proposes a “game” to achieve their goals, which may involve a competition similar to the “Indigenous Elimination Tournament” held 38 years ago.
