In One Piece 1085, the life of Monkey D Luffy on Egghead Island is saved from Gorosei Saturn’s attack thanks to the arrival of Silver Rayleigh. As revealed in the Redit One Piece 1085 forum, the arrival of Gorosei Saturn and Admiral Kizaru on Egghead Island was warmly received by Luffy and Zoro. The top officials of the World Government eventually showed their power, and a duel ensued between Luffy and Gorosei Saturn.
Despite being a one-sided battle, Gorosei Saturn proved to be a formidable opponent, overpowering Monkey D Luffy. The revelation of Gorosei’s power as a devil fruit user with terrifying strength called Dewa Nika left Luffy helpless. The presence of Silver Rayleigh finally saved Luffy from Gorosei Saturn’s overpowered attack.
The battle continued with Dewa Nika’s power target being Gorosei Saturn. Although Luffy awakened his devil fruit power, it was in vain. Nonetheless, the arrival of Silver Rayleigh, who reunited Roger’s pirate crew, brought hope to Luffy.
Silver Rayleigh is a former vice-captain of the pirate king Gol D Roger. He was first seen during the Sabaody Archipelago incident when he helped the Straw Hat Pirates in the Auction House. Silver Rayleigh is well respected by pirates and feared by Yonko Kurohige. He even trained Monkey D Luffy to improve his Haki abilities.
Using his Busoshoku and Kenbunshoku Haki, Silver Rayleigh is capable of fighting against Logia users like Kizaru. With his two-directional sword, which is almost half his height, he can fight on equal footing with his opponents.
Overall, in One Piece 1085, Silver Rayleigh’s action reveals why he was called the Dark King. The episode ends with the tense anticipation of a fierce battle between Gorosei Saturn and Silver Rayleigh, leaving fans eager for the next chapter.
