The main character of One Piece, Monkey D Luffy, faces a severe battle against Gorosei Saturn after being crippled. Even though Luffy is in Sun God Nika mode, it seems to be inadequate. In One Piece 1085, Eiichiro Oda exposes Gorosei’s power that equals the Gods. According to the spoilers of One Piece 1085 released on Reddit, Luffy fights one of the members of Gorosei using his Sun God Nika mode.
Unfortunately, Gorosei can still overpower Luffy even when he is in Sun God Nika mode. What is the real power of Gorosei that can defeat Luffy in his Sun God Nika mode? Here is the explanation of One Piece 1085 spoiler:
Previously, fans were surprised by the appearance of an unexpected character. Gorosei, who usually only gives orders from his room, is now jumping into the fray to confront Luffy. Gorosei with dreadlocks and a wound on his face is on Kizaru’s ship, heading to Egghead Island. Eiichiro Oda has revealed his name as Saint Jay Garcia Saturn. Therefore, it can be confirmed that a battle between Luffy and Gorosei will soon take place. Moreover, as known, Gorosei has been targeting the Nika devil fruit for hundreds of years. They also know that the fruit is currently eaten by Luffy. From the circulating spoilers’ images, Luffy will fight Gorosei with his Sun God Nika mode on Egghead Island. Unfortunately, even in this mode, Luffy appears to be badly injured. Even the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates is defeated by Gorosei. It is mentioned in the spoiler that there are two reasons why Gorosei can bring down Luffy in his Sun God Nika mode. First, Gorosei is not an ordinary elderly person; they are strong characters. This is evidenced by one of Gorosei who has a Shodai Kitetsu sword, which is included in Saijo O Wazamono or the 12 best swords in the world. Anyone who has this sword has already been confirmed to have terrifying strength like Mihawk, Roger, and Shirohige. Therefore, it is reasonable for other Gorosei to also have similar strength as the swordfighter. The second reason is that Luffy has not fully mastered the power of Sun God Nika. Gorosei did expect the user of the Nika devil fruit’s power because it is incomprehensibly strong. However, Gorosei fought vigorously against the previous user who had fully mastered the devil fruit’s power. Meanwhile, Luffy has not yet been able to maximize the potential of his Sun God Nika mode. So, his fight against Gorosei will be a way for Luffy to maximize his devil fruit’s power.
In the latest chapter of One Piece, with the appearance of Gorosei Jegarcia Saturn, fans question how powerful the Gorosei really are. They are known as the Five Elders and play a vital role in the overarching One Piece plot. Until now, they have not directly participated in the events taking place in the One Piece world. Most of what they have done is delivering exposition about something being handled by the story at that time, such as when Luffy awakened Nika power or when Wano Island was annexed. Gorosei is now moving. One of them, named Jegarcia Saturn, is seen on Admiral Kizaru’s ship heading to Egghead Island, where Monkey D. Luffy, along with Dr. Vegapunk and other members of the Straw Hat Pirates, including Jewelry Bonney, is currently located. The placement of Gorosei Saturn in the chapter means One Piece will really handle the final events of the story. It is the first time that one of the Gorosei has decided to leave Pangea Castle in Mariejois, which shows the importance of the tasks at hand. Allegedly, fans know little about whether Gorosei can fight or not. However, with a few clues in the story, it can be concluded that they are powerful characters.
The first clue that fans need to see about Gorosei and their fighting abilities is the spread of Gorosei Saturn in One Piece’s latest chapter. The Gorosei is a very important character and must be protected at all costs. They have the highest authority worldwide and even among Sky Dragons. Basically, all the power in the world is in their hands, or so the world believes because they are not aware of the existence of Im Sama, who is above them. Therefore, it is unreasonable to send someone as important as Gorosei Saturn to fight Yonko if he does not have fighting abilities. On the ship with Kizaru, fans saw someone testing their food for poison. This is just to show that Gorosei Saturn is immune to such things.
