The initial raw scan of One Piece chapter 1123 that was leaked featured a panel of Luffy, no longer in his Gear 5 form and looking aged again, resting on Nami’s lap. However, as the brief spoilers that were released recently have revealed, this chapter mainly consists of flashbacks. The raw scans have also confirmed that there will be no hiatus next week.

Vegapunk’s Preparations for His Death: One Piece Chapter 1123 Raw Scans and His Final Words to Sanji

The One Piece 1123 raw scans open with a cover page featuring Yamato and Denjiro sharing a meal and connecting with the children who had previously hurled rocks at Yamato.

The chapter opens with the aftermath of Joy Boy’s Haki, which results in all the Marines aboard Egghead being knocked out. The sole exception is S-Snake, who finds himself trapped in a bubble and desperately attempting to wake his comrades.

Dorry, using binoculars to survey the island from the Giant Warrior Pirates’ ship, informs both Broggy and Luffy of the news. The two of them appear content with the information. Luffy calls out to Emeth, but receives no response. As they get ready to set sail for their next destination, everyone seems content and contented.

As Bonney reverts back to her child form and peacefully dozes off, Luffy, now appearing disheveled with his tongue sticking out, takes a moment to rest on Nami’s lap. Meanwhile, Sanji stands before Vegapunk’s lifeless body, his face contorted with a grim expression.

The flashback in One Piece chapter 1123 begins with Vegapunk, Shaka, and Pythagorus having an intense discussion in the laboratory. Vegapunk appears visibly stressed. This is followed by a brief conversation between Vegapunk and York in front of the iron giant, and then a series of discussions between Vegapunk, Shaka, and Pythagorus.

Based on the spoilers for One Piece chapter 1123, it was uncovered that the incident occurred two weeks prior when an abnormality was discovered in the power station. This led to the suspicion that someone had interfered with the Mother Flame in order to steal a significant amount of its energy. While Vegapunk initially suspected Lilith, Shaka noted that anyone in the lab could have been responsible. In light of this, they made the decision to keep their discovery and memories of it from being uploaded to the records.

A week later, Pythagorus uncovered that York was responsible for manipulating the surveillance snails and falsifying memories. It was also revealed that she had deployed the Sea Beasts without permission and utilized a white jamming transponder snail. Upon examining York’s call records, Vegapunk discovered that she had contacted Mary Geoise to report that he was conducting research on the Void Century.

Six days prior, following the destruction of Lulusia, Vegapunk grew suspicious of the World Government possessing an Ancient Weapon that had been powered by the stolen portion of the Mother Flame, which had been delivered to them by the Sea Beast.

Despite the situation, Vegapunk saw little purpose in either evading or capturing York. Instead, he focused on finding solutions to lessen the impact. One of his suggestions was to protect the island’s cloud-making machine, which could potentially aid in rescuing humanity as sea levels continue to rise.

According to the latest raw scans of One Piece chapter 1123, Vegapunk was busy preparing for his broadcast when York approached him and inquired about his plans. He revealed his intention to perfect the Mother Flame and use it to power the iron giant robot, but secretly hoped that this plan would never come to fruition.

Two days prior, Vegapunk had recorded a message and concealed it within Emeth. As a precaution, they chose to wipe their memories to avoid behaving suspiciously and exposing themselves. Despite the potential consequences, this also meant they would have to relive the shock of uncovering York’s betrayal and the terror of realizing their lives were at risk.

Vegapunk discovered a message he had written to himself after his memories were erased. The message revealed that the World Government had uncovered their research, but reassured him that they had taken all necessary precautions. It urged him to have faith and be ready to sacrifice his life. Additionally, the message informed him that the Straw Hats and Bonney were present on the island, and that Cipher Pol and an armada led by Admiral Kizaru, accompanied by Saturn, were en route.

The recently released raw scans for One Piece chapter 1123 also feature a crucial scene where Sanji, Vegapunk, Atlas, and Franky are shown inside the Vegatank. According to the leaked information, Vegapunk expresses his desire to pass away on the island, believing that this would lead to a significant occurrence. Above all, he expresses his belief that the Straw Hats will ultimately be the ones to uncover the One Piece.

The final moments of One Piece chapter 1123 show the Giants, Usopp, and Luffy celebrating their upcoming journey to Elbaf in the present. However, Luffy is not in a state to join in the festivities. This is the island that Usopp has always dreamed of.
