Chapter 1144 of One Piece opened with an unexpected twist as readers rejoiced at the return of Ripley and Franky. The last encounter we had with these two was when they learned about Elbaf’s vulnerabilities to fire and lightning, not long after Oda revealed the ancient mural etched into the Adam Tree by a child 800 years ago. In this new chapter, the excitement continued as Franky stumbled upon an enormous research facility hidden within the bark of the Adam Tree. According to Ripley’s explanation, this facility has been there for a considerable length of time, so long that even the Giants themselves are unsure about its origin. The mystery surrounding the facility remains a secret, not just to us, but to them as well.

Looking at this place, it’s got to be at least 3000 years old! — Lilith

This structure appears strikingly like an ancient Iron Giant, lending a sense of timelessness as if it’s resting rather than active. In numerous aspects, it mirrors the Iron Giant from Egghead, albeit being much more rudimentary in design and no longer operational.

Readers were treated to a glimpse of characters Vegapunk Lilith and Bonney in chapter 1144 of One Piece. It seems they’ve been investigating this location, and what lies within is proving to be more captivating than the exterior, despite it being believed to be approximately 3000 years old. This intriguing age only serves to heighten the fans’ curiosity even further. To add to the excitement, it’s also known that Franky will be venturing inside. What makes this even more intriguing is that Vegapunk has chosen to establish a camp here for now, with Bonney accompanying him temporarily.

The Worst Fears Of The Children Start Their Attack

The Fears Gather One By One

In chapter 1144 of One Piece, fans got a chilling preview of the deepest apprehensions of the children, as anticipated. At long last, they initiated their assault, and viewers witnessed simultaneous attacks on various Elbaf regions. Franky found himself under attack by a tempestuous cloud, while the Draugr targeted the Western Village in Elbaf. Simultaneously, Fenrir assaulted Saul near the Walrus School, and Nidhoggr, Ghost, and Loki were observed attacking Giant villages, even overpowering them. It’s clear that the power to materialize one’s fears is an intriguing ability capable of toppling entire nations, and this chapter underscored just how exceptional Saint Killingham truly is.

These are the beasts from the dreams of the children. How is this possible? — Giants

In chapter 1144 of One Piece, viewers got a peek at the Holy Knights, who watched the Giants grapple with their beasts. For the time being, these knights seem ready and poised to act, but they don’t appear to need to intervene just yet.

In a simpler and more conversational style: Chapter 1144 of One Piece was rather brief and primarily focused on the apprehensions causing the children to lash out at others. Despite the Elbaf Giants being overpowered by beasts, Dorry and Brogy eventually joined the fray, arriving aboard the Great Eirik, Svalr model.

They unleashed a formidable Hakoku Sovereignty, vanquishing Nidhoggr, Ghost, and Loki simultaneously, which undeniably portrays their immense power.

Concurrently, the enthusiasts observed Scopper Gaban, the Mountain Eater, aboard their vessel too. Upon catching a glimpse of Gaban, the giants burst into joy, declaring that with him on board, their triumph was virtually ensured.

Fortunately, there won’t be any pauses in the airing of One Piece from now on, so the upcoming battle promises to become even more thrilling next week. Fans are undeniably eager for this exciting turn of events.
