Prince Loki is intricately linked to Lola, the daughter of Big Mom and sister of Chiffon. Initially captivated by Lola, Loki sought a political marriage to strengthen ties with the Giants, a plan enthusiastically supported by Big Mom. However, Lola rejected the proposal in pursuit of true love, a decision made more poignant by Loki’s lack of affection for her sister Chiffon, who bears a striking resemblance to Lola.

Loki: The Cursed Prince of Elbaf

Although a prince, Loki is often referred to as the “Cursed Prince”and the “Shame of Elbaf.”Born 63 years ago, his reputation contrasts starkly with that of his older brother, Hajrudin, who has positioned himself as a formidable ally in Luffy’s Straw Hat Grand Fleet. Loki’s dark past is marked by numerous heinous acts, culminating in a crime so grievous that he earned a sentence of crucifixion.

The Price of Power

Renowned in Elbaf for his immense strength, Loki’s powers surged after consuming a legendary devil fruit, a treasure typically passed down within the royal lineage. His path to power was stained with treachery, having murdered his father to claim the fruit. Six years ago, he faced a formidable challenge, requiring the might of Elbaf’s warriors to bring him down.

Chapter 1131: Loki’s Bounty Unveiled

Spoilers from Chapter 1131 indicate that the World Government previously imposed a 2.6 billion berry bounty on Loki, issued six years prior to his acquisition of the devil fruit and subsequent imprisonment. This suggests that his current strength and threat level far exceed that initial assessment.

Loki and His Connection to Shanks

Loki shares a complex history with Shanks, having experienced a falling-out before his crucifixion. Given that Elbaf falls under Shanks’ jurisdiction, he frequently visits the island. In a notable confrontation, Shanks demonstrated his prowess against Loki’s subordinates using haki, a move that raised eyebrows among Luffy and his crew. Intrigued by their dynamic, Luffy questions Loki about their history, but Loki cryptically agrees to divulge more only if Luffy assists in freeing him—leaving fans anxious to know the potential consequences of this agreement.

As the One Piece saga shifts away from the Egghead incident, the excitement surrounding the Elbaf Arc intensifies. Stay tuned for our updates, including insights into other riveting plot developments, such as Akainu’s daughter and Oda’s exploration of the Rocky Port Incident.
