One Piece Chapter 1183 Preview: The Wings Of The Pirate King Rise

by

Following a slow start to May because of Golden Week and a break taken by creator Eiichiro Oda, new One Piece chapters will begin releasing again on May 24, 2026, in issue #26 of Weekly Shonen Jump. Chapter 1183 will kick off a three-week run of new content from Oda, and fans are eagerly anticipating its arrival.

Chapter 1183 of One Piece continues the story from last week, and finally introduces Rain God Zaza – a character fans have anticipated since the Skypiea arc over 20 years ago! The new chapter will mainly focus on the Wings of the Pirate King as they begin their fight to save Warland, along with other exciting developments.

One Piece Chapter 1183 Will Put Focus On Luffy’s Wings As They Take on Super Sommers And Super Killingham

One Piece chapter 1183, coming out on May 24th, 2026, will mainly focus on Zoro and Sanji. Both are now actively heading towards their key fights in this part of the story. As two of the strongest fighters on Elbaf – after Luffy and Loki – they need to deal with a new threat. While Luffy prepares to fight the Accursed Prince (who is currently battling Nerona Imu), Zoro and Sanji will be tasked with stopping the enhanced Holy Knights, Saint Killingham and Saint Sommers.

In One Piece Chapter 1180, Nerona Imu greatly strengthened Killingham and Sommers by granting them the Omen ability. These enhanced versions of the characters will now confront the Wings of the Pirate King, setting the stage for a long-awaited battle that fans have anticipated since the start of the Elbaf Arc.

Zoro: Hey, finish the job right!

Sanji: Right back at you!!

— Zoro and Sanji exchange in One Piece Chapter #1182

The confrontation between Zoro and Sommers is happening soon, likely in the next few chapters of One Piece. Zoro is traveling towards Elbaf’s Western Port, where Sommers is located, hoping to defeat the Holy Knight before things escalate. At the same time, Sanji is heading to Killingham, aware of the plan to kidnap children, as revealed in chapter 1182. These events suggest the major battles of Elbaf are about to begin. Fans have been anticipating this showdown ever since Sommers and Killingham were first introduced back in chapter 1140 (February 24, 2025), and now it seems the wait is almost over. We’re finally going to see Luffy’s Wings in action against the Holy Knights, and potentially witness them gain new abilities.

Why Sanji Vs Rain God Zaza Will Define Elbaph’s Ending

Everyone’s hyped about Zoro versus Saint Sommers, and it’s going to be a great fight, no doubt. But honestly, I’m much more focused on what’s happening with Sanji and Saint Killingham. Killingham’s gotten a serious power-up, and now he fully controls Rain God Zaza – a new fighting style he officially introduced in chapter 1182. It’s interesting because Rain God Zaza was originally mentioned way back in chapter 287, and now it’s actually here. However, Killingham admitted he wasn’t sure if he could fully control it, which makes me think we might see him lose control at some point – that could be a huge turning point in the fight.

As the pleas for rain echoed, the Rain God, Zaza, arrived! — Saint Killingham, One Piece Chapter 1182

Sanji is moving towards Killingham and Zaza. Because Zaza is a woman, and Sanji is a chivalrous character, their encounter will be particularly noteworthy. He won’t be able to bring himself to harm her, but based on his past experiences with characters like Pudding and Viola, he’ll likely manage to win Zaza over. This could free Zaza from Killingham’s control and lead to an alliance between her, the Giants, and Elbaf, all against the Celestial Dragons – who are essentially Zaza’s sworn enemies.

Sanji has the potential to be the most valuable player in the upcoming Elbaf Arc, potentially leading the Straw Hat Pirates and the Giants to victory against the Holy Knights and the World Government’s King. This storyline could start developing as early as chapter 1183, and fans are hoping Sanji will finally get the spotlight he deserves.

Imu Could Finally Defeat Loki In One Piece Chapter 1183

The upcoming manga chapter will likely center on the Wings of the Pirate Kings, but the more significant conflict involves Loki, the Accursed Prince of Elbaf. Recent chapters have highlighted Loki’s fierce fighting, though it’s becoming increasingly clear he won’t be able to hold out much longer, as he’s steadily losing ground.

“Nidhoggr… I never thought I’d face you again, you traitor!” – Nerona Imu speaking to Loki in One Piece chapter 1182.

Chapter 1183 of One Piece could show Imu finally defeating Loki, who fought bravely against the World King and even managed to injure him. While Loki has been a huge help in this battle, it’s becoming clear that Luffy will ultimately be the one to defeat the World King. To make that happen, Loki will likely be defeated soon, and Chapter 1183 will probably begin to set that up.

Luffy’s Arrival On The Battlefield Edges Closer In This Week’s Chapter

Over the past few chapters, we’ve seen Luffy eat a massive amount of food and get ready to fight Imu. We think Chapter 1183 of One Piece will finally show him heading to the battle. He’s likely finished eating and eager to return to the fight. This timing also fits with Loki steadily losing his power. If Loki is defeated in this chapter, Luffy arriving at the very end would create a huge moment for fans.

“I need to eat more! This feeling is completely new to me! It’s incredibly powerful and overwhelming! What is this person’s Haki?” — Monkey D. Luffy, One Piece chapter 1181

Considering how amazing the recent chapters of One Piece have been, chapter 1183 is shaping up to be incredible. Fans have been eagerly waiting for two weeks, so expectations are very high. It’s likely Oda will deliver another fantastic chapter this week as Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates continue their journey to become the strongest pirates.
