ONE PIECE Chapter 1112 Spoilers Confirmed! | Luffy vs. Peter Saint & Valkyrie Saint
Luffy vs. Peter Saint & Valkyrie Saint
It seems Luffy is indeed fighting against the Five Elder Stars! He starts by battling Peter Saint, who can essentially burrow underground. Just as Peter Saint likely ambushed Luffy from below, Luffy, who has also gained the ability to burrow, might be engaging in a subterranean battle with him.
The Sandworm looks poisonous just by its appearance, and it’s immortal even when cut by Dorry and Brogy’s Sun-Slicing Swords. It’s a tough opponent to deal with. Luffy also attacks Valkyrie Saint, but it seems he suffers damage from the encounter.
Valkyrie Saint’s ability to nullify damage from ordinary weapons is likely tied to his monstrous nature. Although he doesn’t seem to have the power to reflect damage back to his opponent, I suspect his ability might be similar to Saturn Saint’s magic circle.
There’s no indication that Valkyrie has such an ability according to legend, but the Five Elder Stars’ powers might be linked to multiple Devil Fruit abilities or even some kind of ‘magic,’ as I’ve theorized before. The former could remind us of the Wara Wara no Mi’s abilities and Urouge’s powers.
If it’s the latter, it could imply that each of the Five Elder Stars possesses unique mystical abilities, possibly unrelated to Devil Fruits. Given that they call themselves gods, it wouldn’t be surprising if they had supernatural powers separate from Devil Fruits. If the Five Elder Stars have such abilities, it’s likely that Im-sama has even stronger abilities, and perhaps the Holy Knights do as well.
Personally, I suspect these mystical powers are still rooted in Haki. Meanwhile, what’s happening with Mars Saint in the Lab Phase?
