ONE PIECE Elbaf Arc Theories | Coby’s Decision to Stop Luffy’s Dream

Will the Strongest Enemy in the Elbaf Arc Be Coby? Will the Straw Hat Pirates Finally Clash Seriously with the Young Hero?

In ONE PIECE Chapter 1122, we saw a scene where it seemed that Coby had decided to stop Luffy’s dream after hearing about the ONE PIECE from Vegapunk…

In this article, I’d like to explore that topic in more detail!

Coby’s Decision to Stop Luffy’s Dream

Vegapunk mentioned that whoever obtains the ONE PIECE will hold the fate of the world in their hands…

While this is just Vegapunk’s personal view, and no one can truly confirm if it’s true, the fact that it comes from such an extraordinary genius who has been researching the Void Century makes it a theory worth considering seriously.

Given that, it’s only natural that Coby, upon hearing this, would realize that if Luffy is aiming to become the Pirate King, he’s also trying to obtain the ONE PIECE. As a Marine, it would be natural for Coby to feel it’s his duty to stop Luffy.

However, Coby knows what kind of person Luffy is. In fact, Coby admires and respects Luffy…
Even though he has no idea what the ONE PIECE truly is, if it does indeed hold the power to shape the world’s fate, Coby might think it’s better for Luffy to obtain it rather than any other pirate, knowing Luffy wouldn’t misuse it.

Yet, Coby shows a strong resolve to stop him…

Personally, I believe it’s because Coby feels that no single person should hold such immense power that it could determine the world’s fate.

Even if Luffy were to obtain the ONE PIECE and try to steer the world in a better direction, which might seem preferable to the current situation under the control of the Celestial Dragons, it’s still dangerous for one person to monopolize such power.

Coby probably understands that while Luffy becoming a Yonko hasn’t changed who he is at heart, he might also believe that, despite the flaws of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, the existence of the current system is necessary to maintain world peace.

Garp, Coby’s mentor, seems to believe in protecting the World Government itself, and Coby likely inherits that philosophy.

Therefore, even if it’s Luffy, a pirate’s power to control the fate of the world is something Coby feels must be prevented, and he has likely steeled himself to face Luffy in a serious clash!
