Oda-sensei delivers masterful visual storytelling:

📌 Page 12-13 Double Spread: Luffy's golden fist colliding with Kizaru's light sword creates dazzling contrast (sun vs. star motifs)
📌 Vegapunk's Flashback Sequence: Monochrome panels showing young Vegapunk meeting Dragon – hints at Revolutionary Army origins
📌 Final Page Composition: Saint Figarland's silhouette framed by menacing new Pacifistas – chilling cliffhanger

Theories & Predictions for Chapter 1128

Will Vegapunk actually die, or will his consciousness transfer to York's body?
Blackflame Pacifistas may have ancient weapon connections (Uranium power source?)
Potential arrival of Revolutionary Army as wildcard interveners

Chapter Rating

★★★★☆ (4.5/5)

Why? Pacing issues in early fight scenes balanced by emotional payoff and world-changing revelations. Figarland's entrance elevates stakes exponentially.
