The recent flashback during the Elbaf Arc unveiled the significant sway of the World Government throughout history. It delved into past events, notably the God Valley Incident and the tragic fate of Harald. Despite his relentless efforts—sacrificing his friendship with Rocks and compromising his very essence—Harald struggled to unite Elbaf with the wider world.

Imu, a pivotal figure within the government, manipulated Harald, using him as a weapon to further their agenda. The chilling intention was to compel Harald to assemble a massive army for their purposes. Upon Harald’s refusal, the government seized control of his mind, leading to the demise of several giant beings.

Dubbed ‘Ragnir’, Chapter 1171 unveils the repercussions following Harald’s demise, concluding the flashback segment. Moving forward, the storyline shifts focus back to the Straw Hats as they embark on their adventures in Elbaf. The chapter’s cover page amusingly depicts Zoro balancing a cat on his head.

In the narrative aftermath of Harald’s tragic end, a significant reaction ensues from Imu, who faces adverse consequences. Consequently, they opt to refrain from deploying additional God’s Knights to Elbaf, revealing that the island’s association with the World Government is impossible due to its ties with the enigmatic “D” clan.

Returning to present events, Hajruddin, burdened by the truth of Harald’s fate, offers an apology to Loki, liberating him from confinement. Just then, a Draugr skeleton beast appears from the Underworld.

Loki asserts his ability to soar, advising his companions to advance while he confronts the creature alone. Nevertheless, Luffy chooses to remain and witness Loki’s prowess in action. The giant prince channels Ragnir to unleash a formidable move dubbed ‘Niflheim’, effectively immobilizing the beast. The chapter closes with Luffy expressing awe at Loki’s newfound strength.

As a side note, One Piece is set for a brief hiatus next week, resulting in a delay for the upcoming chapter.
