Spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1168 have finally surfaced, and Eiichiro Oda once again delivers an emotional blow to the story. Last week’s chapter centered around Harald, Ida, Loki, and the people of Elbaf, highlighting Ida’s tragic fate as she lay poisoned by her own people for refusing to become queen. Her life was already hanging by a thin thread, and fans feared the inevitable.
To make things even more unfortunate, the chapter ends with news of a break next week. After the God Valley Incident finally wrapped up, the story has now fully returned to Elbaf lore — and now more than ever, the ending of One Piece is starting to feel very close.
