This article contains spoilers from One Piece‘s Elbaf Arc.
Summary
- Imu Can Turn His Enemies Into Allies.
- The Entirety Of Elbaf Is On Imu’s Side.
- Luffy Vs Imu Is A Game Of Reversi.
The ongoing tale of “One Piece” currently unfolds in the Elbaf arc, and it’s been nothing short of extraordinary thus far. It’s already evident that Elbaf could be one of the most significant arcs in the entire series, given that Luffy and his Straw Hat Pirates are set to encounter their largest adversary yet – Imu.
Given that Imu has taken control in Elbaf, it’s only a question of when Luffy will confront them. However, it won’t be simple, as Imu commands an army, while Luffy currently doesn’t have one. Still, the anticipation builds as fans eagerly wait to see if Luffy will gather his own troops soon.
Imu Just Showed The Power Of Domi Reversi
- Imu Can Turn His Enemies Into Allies
- The Entirety Of Elbaf Is On Imu’s Side
Fans recognize that Imu is one of the most powerful characters in “One Piece,” and a mere glimpse of their abilities is enough to confirm this. In a flash, Imu defeated Dorry and Brogy, not only vanquishing them but also converting them into his own allies. Furthermore, Imu has transformed numerous Giants into demons, a feat accomplished through the power of Domi Reversi. This ability allows Imu to perform miraculous acts such as bestowing immortality and immense strength upon someone, albeit at the cost of a tiny slice of their lifespan. Essentially, this is the epitome of corruption.
Mu shall give thee an undying body, and prodigious strength! — Imu
Although Imu’s Domi Revechi is powerful, eventually, Elbaf needs to be rescued, suggesting that Imu may encounter an equally formidable opponent in response. Given the current situation, Luffy seems to be at a disadvantage, but he can turn things around by gaining allies, much like Imu has done.
Luffy Could Replicate It Himself
Luffy Vs Imu Is A Game Of Reversi
Over the past couple of instances I’ve witnessed, it appears Imu isn’t just converting individuals into allies. Instead, it seems like he’s orchestrating everything through a gameboard, manipulating others by turning them upside-down on this board and switching their allegiance from white to black – symbolizing their transformation into the demon side. Interestingly, if one piece is sandwiched between two black pieces, it too gets flipped, creating a domino effect. The ultimate goal seems to be filling the entire board with one color, signaling the end of the game.
He possesses the ability to transform adversaries into allies, making him wield one of the most threatening powers globally. (Dracule Mihawk)
It’s highly probable that Luffy will participate in the upcoming match against Imu, and instead of fighting foes, he might convert them into allies using his Gear 5 abilities. Spectators won’t be shocked if Luffy manages to transform some adversaries into followers of Nika during this game, symbolizing a shift towards the white team.
Can Luffy Give A Nika Boost To Everyone?
Luffy has the capability and it’s reasonable to expect him to transform others into Nika. Firstly, he possesses the power to accomplish anything he envisions, so if he witnesses Imu transforming people into demons, his imagination might lead him to transform them into Nika instead. Secondly, we’ve observed that he can bestow abilities onto his surroundings, implying theoretically, he could also transfer this ability.
Ultimately, what the Giants yearn for is to embody Nika in some fashion. If Luffy manages to transform others into Nika, he would be making their dreams come true.
