The long-awaited spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1116 have been released, shedding light on the enigmatic relationship between Imu and Lily.
As the ending of One Piece approaches at a slow and steady pace, a multitude of mysteries within the story are starting to unravel. The Egghead Arc is shedding light on various plot points, such as Joyboy’s past and the secrets of the Void Century, that have been shrouded in mystery throughout the manga.
Despite ongoing efforts, the identity of Imu, a shadowy figure who holds ultimate power as the secret leader of the World Government, remains unsolved. Throughout the story, Imu has been depicted as a mysterious and elusive character, making it nearly impossible to uncover their true identity.
Despite Imu’s true identity still being shrouded in mystery, One Piece does offer readers small pieces of information about them. In the past, it was disclosed that there was a Nerona Imu who served as one of the First Twenty Rulers, leading to speculation that the two Imus could potentially be the same individual. Additionally, there have been subtle clues hinting that Imu may have been alive since the time of the first rulers, as they appear to have a personal connection with Nefertari D. Lily, who was also among the first rulers.
In the latest chapter, One Piece Chapter 1116, a new hint is revealed about the potential connection between Imu and Lily. At the end of the chapter, Imu is shown studying a photograph of a woman who bears a striking resemblance to Vivi. It is widely speculated that Vivi, being a descendant of Lily, shares a similar appearance to her ancestor based on Lily’s silhouette. Therefore, it is highly likely that the woman in the photograph is Lily and Imu is studying her image.
After Vegapunk’s message, the scene shifts to the revelation of the truth about the war that occurred 800 years ago and the impending sinking of the world. This war was between Joyboy and the Ancient Kingdom against the First Twenty Rulers.
Keeping a picture of Lily and reacting to her name whenever she is mentioned, Imu hints at a strong bond between them. This further strengthens the possibility of Imu being one of the earliest rulers. It is also plausible that Imu played a role in Lily’s enigmatic vanishing, as she had rejected staying at Mary Geoise.
The future of One Piece will unveil more about the relationship between Imu and Lily, which is already evident to have a significant impact on the plot. This connection also suggests that Vivi will have a pivotal role in the Final Saga.
The release of One Piece Chapter 1116 on June 2, 2024 will be followed by another period of hiatus. However, there is plenty of content about our beloved pirates to keep you entertained during this time.
