The Latest Update on One Piece Episode 1053: Alliance vs Kaido’s Forces on Onigashima
As One Piece anime reaches episode 1053, the story plots towards the peak of the fight on Onigashima. It is estimated that the battle between the Straw Hat alliance and Oden’s followers against Kaido will not last long. Kaido has reached his breaking point, while the Straw Hat alliance keeps pushing on to strengthen their defense.
Along with Luffy, who has regained his strength, Momonosuke, accompanied by Yamato, transformed into a dragon as big as Kaido. As Kaido weakens, he can no longer bind Onigashima as he did before. Therefore, Onigashima is threatened to fall and become a tragedy for the Flower Capital citizens who are celebrating the festival.
That’s why Momonosuke tries his best to release flames to rebind Onigashima as Kaido had done. Meanwhile, Sanji accidentally proves that he is a part of Germa 66. Queen should have killed Sanji or at least caused serious injuries. Episode 1053 tells the details of how the dinosaur version of Queen crushed Sanji’s body.
However, Sanji managed to survive with the power of Germa 66, which he unwittingly activated, although he did not want it at all. Sanji’s childhood memories suddenly surfaced where he remembered being the only failed product of Germa 66 and was thus banished.
He also recalled that he could recover quickly from his previous fight. He thought that the magical feeling he was experiencing now was Germa technology that he inadvertently activated. On the other hand, Zoro still has to face King, as explained in episode 1052. In that battle, Zoro managed to cut off the top of King’s mask, revealing a crescent moon symbol on King’s forehead. However, episode 1053 did not show the fight between King and Zoro.
Although Kaido has reached his breaking point, Sanji accidentally taps into a new energy within his body, and Momonosuke and Yamato are trying hard to protect the Flower Capital, there are still other threats waiting. The World Government troops seem to have approached Wano Country with the aim of taking over the nation. Besides, they plan to abduct Nico Robin, a member of the Straw Hat alliance, who is considered a key figure because she can read Poneglyph.
CP0 members also know the location of another dragon with Luffy. Although they are not yet sure that the dragon is Momonosuke, they know that the dragon is a Devil Fruit eater made by Vegapunk. The CP0 threat is very dangerous and real. This is because if the Straw Hat alliance wins against Kaido’s forces, they will have exhausted their energy while the World Government troops have not yet released theirs to fight at all.
