What Happened in Episode #1080 of One Piece?
Episode #1080 marked the continuation of the Fire Festival as the Straw Hats enthusiastically participated in the lively event. However, Robin veered from the festivities and dedicated her time to uncovering the Poneglyph in Wano. It was during this quest that Tenguyama unexpectedly unveiled himself as Oden's father. To everyone's astonishment, the enigmatic elder disclosed the hidden location of the Ancient Weapon Pluton beneath Wano. Moreover, with the triumph over Big Mom and Kaido, both Luffy and Buggy ascended to the positions of the new Yonko. In the meantime, Admiral Ryokugyu made a formidable entrance into Wano and engaged in intense battles against King, Queen, and the remaining members of the Beast Pirates. Displaying his dominant prowess, he effortlessly vanquished them all, proving himself to be a significant menace.
One Piece Episode #1081 Will See The Straw Hats Fight Ryokugyu
After dealing with the Beast Pirates, Ryokugyu is now making his way towards a direct showdown with the Straw Hat Pirates. This will mark the first encounter for the Straw Hats with an Admiral since their clash with Fujitora on Dressrosa. As the Admirals are among the World Government's strongest warriors, this presents a valuable opportunity to witness the Straw Hats' capabilities against such a formidable force. Furthermore, Ryokugyu's own prowess is incredibly terrifying, as demonstrated in episode #1080. Although King and Queen prove to be formidable adversaries, he effortlessly overpowered them in stark contrast to the Straw Hats' struggles.
In a fight involving Ryokugyu, the Straw Hats, and their allies on Wano, the newest Admiral in One Piece faces a significant numerical disadvantage. This could potentially reduce the level of danger in the battle. Nevertheless, the Navy's increasing aggression towards Luffy is anticipated to persist in upcoming story arcs, making Episode #1081 of One Piece a valuable indicator of the series' changed dynamics. Don't miss the release of Episode #1081 on October 28, 2023, exclusively on Crunchyroll.
