The recent release of One Piece 1085 has brought back a fan-favorite character, Nefetari Vivi. Vivi first appeared in the Alabasta arc as the royal princess of the Alabasta kingdom and was a descendant of the Nefetari family, one of the twenty kingdoms that formed the World Government.
In chapter 1084, it was revealed that the Alabasta queen at that time, Lily, who was also a member of the Nefetari family, declined an invitation to become a Tenryuubito. Following her refusal, she disappeared without a trace, and her body was never found. Fast forward to chapter 1085, and Lily’s body has been discovered in the Pangea Mariejoa palace, indicating that the Nefetari family has a more significant role to play in the story.
Additionally, the chapter hints at the existence of Cobra, the late king of Alabasta, and Vivi’s father. After the Reverie, Cobra searched for his late grandmother, Lily. Upon his arrival, he was surprised by the appearance of a figure who occupied the empty throne believed to be Im Sama. He died on the spot, and his body was presumably buried alongside Lily in the Pangea Mariejoa palace.
Vivi is seen grieving hysterically upon learning about her father’s death in chapter 1085. Meanwhile, her safety is threatened as she is currently being pursued by the World Government. The only safe places for her are Morgan’s office and the Straw Hat Pirates’ Sunny Go pirate ship.
In conclusion, One Piece 1085 hints at an upcoming arc that will revolve around the Nefetari family and their connection to the World Government. The appearance of Cobra and the discovery of Lily’s body provide an intriguing teaser for what’s to come. Fans are excited to see how Oda will further develop the story and the characters in this epic manga series.
