One Piece 1168 Spoilers
BREAK NEXT WEEK
SMALL TIME JUMP.
Chapter is leading toward why Loki killed Harald (not this chapter but leading towards it.)
Overall chapter is 8/10. Good build up, thats all.
We get more scenes from Loki in the underworld in Elbaph.
By underworld I mean the Forest where Luffy and Loki are, or where Loki’s mother threw him.
We finally get context on how the summoning circle appeared in the royal palace.
IDA is done. Loki is very angry.
We get narrator talk explaining how Imu’s plan worked and everything fall into place.
Loki is very angry at Harald for everything thats happened. Also the real flashback begins now.
On a sidenote, Shanks disappeared from Mariejois, he ran away.
BRIEF SUMMARY
~CHAPTER 1168: “ELBAPH’S SNOW’.
-IDA DIED IN A SNOWY DAY. HARALD AND HAJRUDIN CRIED FOR HER AND LOK! SUFFERED IN SILENCED WHILE HE WAS PRISONED.
-14 YEARS AGO, SHANKS WAS SUPPOSED TO GET THE DEEP SEA PACT BUT HE DIDNT APPEAR, INSTEAD THEY DECIDED HARALD WILL BE PROMOTED FOR DEEP SEA PACT AND BECAME A KNIGHT OF GOD.
-HARALD GAINED MORE POWER AND IMMORTALITY. IMU ORDERED HARALD TO CREATE THE ABYSS CIRCLE IN ELBAPH.
-AFTERWARDS, IMU ORDERED HIM TO CREATE A GIANT ARMY FOR THE GOVERNMENT. ~CHAPTER ENDS WITH LOKI AND JARUL ARRIVING TO THE CASTLE. ~BREAK NEXT WEEK
ADDITIONAL SPOILERS
The Gorosei introduce Harald to Imu. Imu gives Harald the Deep Sea Pact.
Which makes Harald (in his own words) stronger and, according to Imu, immortal.
Imu then orders Harald to transform his nation into a military power, one as strong as the navy.
Either Harald was defeated by Gaban+Shanks+Loki or he simply let Loki kill him.
No way that this powered up Harald lost alone to rookie Loki who didn’t had ragnir+his df, alone.
Because he made the Deep Sea Pact with Imu, Harald is powerless and is being used by Imu (Imu controls him).
Harald ordered his men to tie him to a pillar for restraint.
He then called Jarul and Loki to the castle for an urgent meeting(probably to stop him).
MORE SPOILERS
There are three stages of contracts or covenants with “God” (Imu):
-The first and initial stage is the Shallows Covenant, written in Kanji as 「浅海契約」 (senkai keiyaku), literally meaning “Shallow Sea Contract.” This covenant is granted by the Five Elders to the “Devoted Blades of God” (神の従刃, kami no jūjin).
-The second stage is the Depths Covenant, written in Kanji as 「深海契約」 (shinkai keiyaku), literally meaning “Deep Sea Contract.” It is granted directly by Imu (according to the latest spoilers).
-The third and highest stage is the Abyssal Covenant, written in Kanji as 「深々海契約」 (shin-shinkai keiyaku), literally meaning “Deep Deep Sea Contract.” It is safe to assume that this covenant is also granted directly by Imu.
In the previous chapter (Chapter 1167), V. Nusjuro said that the “Depths Covenant” and “Abyssal Covenant” are reserved for only “13 exclusive individuals,” making them the elite among the elite.
In each covenant, the Kanji for “sea” is written, which is 「海」 (umi). If you reverse the romaji spelling of umi, you get “IMU”
Shallow Sea mark: Normal contract, no connection to Imu, no powers. Deep Sea mark: Contract with Imu (he can control you), in return you become stronger, can teleport/create a magic circle, become immortal (probably meaning regeneration power).
Abyssal Sea Mark: Probably gives a Yokai power/even stronger boost (Imu CoC).
It seems like Sommer indeed has the Abyssal mark, maybe he also has a Yokai power which he didn´t used yet? I mean something special must given with the Abyssal seal because Deep Sea already gives almost all abilities we know from the Holy Knight.
ONE PIECE 1168 DETAILED SUMMARY
Short chapter of 15 pages, some of the pages are unfinished (like in chapter 1,098).
Chapter 1,168: “The snow of elbaph”.
Reader request in the cover: “Little sheeps are making gloves for Hachi”.
Chapter starts with narrator explaining that the image of giants improved all over the world thanks to trading with other countries, giant marines heroism and Harald diplomacy.
In Elbaph, Loki was sent to the “Detention center” in the underworld after destroying brewers village. Harald returned to Elbaph from his last mission and was taking care of Ida in her bar. Ida told Harald that his words made her feel better, and then she asked him if Elbaph will become one with the world soon.
Harald: “That’s right, ida!! Soon, we will be connected with the world!! Then it’ll be just like the old days!! We can go on adventures together again!!”
Ida: “Fantastic I can’t wait!!” Harald: “Neither can I!!”
Ida reached out her arm and grasped Harald’s hand, but as soon as their hands touched, Ida’s arm lost its strength and she died. It was snowing heavily in Elbaph the day Ida died. Harald and Hajrudin were crying at Ida’s bed while Loki sat in silent in jail.
14 years ago, Shanks disappeared just before he will be promoted to a “Knight of God”. So Harald, the next one in line, was offered the chance instead. Harald accompanied the Five Elders to the empty throne room.
Harald: “Once elbaph becomes a part of the “World government”…I’m planning to let go of my crown, and give it to someone young and pure…’ Imu: “That… Is something mu will decide.”
Harald was shocked to see there was someone sitting on the “Empty throne”.
Harald: “Why… Is someone on the “Empty throne”…?” Imu: “Come forth. I have been watching thee, Harald.”
- A huge scream resounded throughout the “Pangea castle”.
- Imu changed harald’s mark to “Depths covenant” mark (the same Killingham has in the present)
Harald: “Aaargh!!! I can feel it…!!! My “Power” is increasing… To an alarming level!!” Imu: “From this moment forth, thou art a “Knight of immortality”. A servant of mu…” Harald: “Immortality…. Still sounds like a dream to me…” Imu: “Craft an “Abyss” (pentagram) in elbaph for me, as a mark for the bond between us…!!And later, after the completion of mu’s final order… The fruition of thy hard work will be realized!! Elbaph shall be allowed to join the world government!!
- While Imu said that words, we see Harald returning to Elbaph in his ship.
- Then Harald created the “Abyss” in the throne room of the Aurust Castle.
- However, Imu’s next order for Harald was to turn Elbaph into a military nation with a fleet as great as the marines. Harald tried to resist but his body started moving on its own. The condition of “Depths covenant” was that he can never defy Imu’s orders.
- Harald ordered soldiers to tie him to a pillar and summon Jarul and his sons at once. Hajrudin was out at sea so only Loki and Jarul were summoned to the Aurust Castle.
【Detention Center in the Underworld】
Giant guard: “Loki come out!! You’re free!!” Loki: “Hmm?” Giant guard: “Head to aurust castle immediately!! The king demands your presence!!”
【Jarul’s House】
Jarul: “Emergency you said!? Wait, what happened exactly!?”
- Chapter ends with a panel of the famous portrait of King Harald (the one where he held a sword) while narrator speaks…
Narrator: [Now, back to the main story. On that day, a mass slaughter occurred at the castle. Leading the most beloved king of elbaph, the wise sovereign harald, to lose his life…!!!]
End of chapter. Break Next Week.

DETAILED SUMMARY
ONE PIECE CHAPTER 1169 FULL SPOILERS. More details of the chapter, thanks to redon from Arlong Park Forums. Chapter of 19 pages (2 color pages from Color Spread and 17 black and white normal pages). Chapter 1,169: “Have to die as soon as possible”.
Color Spread in chapter cover: “Rock Pirates wearing black suits”. 14 members of Rock Pirates appear in the cover: Rocks (stroking a tiger), Newgate, Linlin, Kaidou, Shiki, Stussy, Gloriosa, Streusen, John, Marlon, Ochoku, Ganzui, Barbet,
and Kyo. Gaban and Shanks were talking in Gaban’s house (it’s the continuation of the scene we saw in chapter 1,152). Gaban explained Shanks that he met Garp and
teamed from him that Roger had a son. And now Gaban passed on that information to Shanks. Shanks: “Ohhh, then captain’s son would be Like my younger brother!!” Gaban: “Yeah… Like you and Buggy are “our” sons.”
Cut to the Aurust Castle. Harald moved on his own and killed the giant guard who brought the chains to tie him to a pillar. Harald sensed that Imu’s control
isn’t only affecting his body, soon his mind and thoughts will also be changed ac- cording to Imu’s will. Harald ordered all giant guards to kill him, then Loki and Jarul entered in the
throne room as giant guards were stabbing Harald (same scene we saw in chapter 1,152). But Harald recovered and started to killing guards and releasing massive Haki.
Back to Gaban’s house. Shanks explained Gaban how “contracts” work while he showed Gaban the mark on his left arm.
Shanks: “Me and Harald formed a “Shallows Covenant” with an entity called the “Great One” in the Holy Land. But even with just this “Shallows Covenant”, if I’m within the distance of their
ability… It would be impossible to go against their orders…!!” Gaban: “What a queer power.” Shanks explained Gaban that he revealed his true self to Harald when they were
together away from Mary Geoise, so they become friends. We can see a panel of that moment with Harald saying to Shanks “l knew it!! You are from Red Haired Pirates, right!? Shanks said that Harald believed that if he joins the “Knights of God” Elbaph
will finally join the World Government too. But that also means Harald must sign a higher covenant. Gaban: “And is that trouble?” Shanks: “By forming that new covenant, the “Knights of God” gain “superhuman
strength” and “immortal body”. They are also given the power to generate an “Abyss” to transverse over great distances. In return, the Great One’s voice will follow them to world’s end.
No matter where they are, they won’t be able to go against their orders…!! Harald won’t be able to say no to them anymore!! And I sincerely doubt those greedy people will still keep their promises then…”
Suddenly, Shanks and Gaban sensed a terrifying Haki coming from the Aurust Castle.
In the throne room Loki and Jarul pinned Harald down on the floor. Harald confessed to Loki, Jarul and the giant guards that he has been doing dirty jobs for the World Government but now he has been fooled by Imu. Harald ordered Jarul to give Loki the “Legendary Akuma no Mi” since he thinks
that even Loki wouldn’t be able to defeat him after being given Imu’s power-up. Then Harald talked to his son while he was crying.
Harald: “I have to die as soon as possible!!! Do it and sit yourself on the “throne” Loki!! Then to the people what a fool of a King I was!! Use my death to build your reputation!!! I don’t give a damn what people are going to say about me after my death!!!
What matters the most is the future of you understand, don’t you!!?” Loki: “You… I’m speechless…!!” Harald: “l beg you, Loki!! You are the only one I can count on!!!” After entrusting everything to Loki, Imu’s influence increased and Harald’s mind
changed completely. Harald didn’t transform into a monster, Imu simply took total control of Harald’s body.
In an AMAZING double page Harald started killing all giant guards. Harald ordered the guards outside the throne room to seal all doors immediately because
there were criminals in the castle. One giant guard stabbed Harald’s neck but he recovered immediately.
Giant guard: “How dare you…!! You are not our King Harald anymore!!” Harald: “Don’t be ridiculous. I’m still Harald… but now I’m a loyal servant of the “Great One”…
None will survive…!! I won’t let a word of what’s happening in this castle get out!!”
Loki ran to the treasure room. Harald said he will be the one that will eat the “Legendary Akuma no Mi” and then he will give Elbaph to Imu. Jarul attacked Harald to stop him saying if Harald eats that Akuma no Mi, the world will end. That’s when Jarul got
stabbed in his head. Shanks and Gaban arrived to the Aurust Castle and attacked Harald. But once again, Harald recovered immediately.
Harald: “Shanks… This immortal body of mine… is fascinating!! I can feel my superiority as an organism…” Shanks: “Damn it… Is there no way to cancel the order…!?” Loki arrived the treasure room at the end of the chapter. He unlocked the chains and
opened the door. Inside Loki saw a treasure box containing the fruit and “Ragnir” hammer behinds it. But there’s something strange, because it looks Like “Ragnir” was moving a little… Loki: “This is the forbidden “Akuma no Mi” that is passed down in Elbaph!! Ehh?”
Chapter ends with “Ragnir” moving on its own and attacking Loki, who barely dodges the attack. Strange voice: “GeGeGeGel!” Loki: “Uwahh!! Who is this!!?”
End of the chapter.
BREAK next week for Japanese Christmas Holiday week (full Weekly Shonen Jump magazine will be on break). STAY TUNED FOR EARLY SPOILERS FOR ONE PIECE CHAPTER 1170.
2025 MAMA Awards: Saja Boys Collaboration Performance Officially Canceled Due to Tragedy The highly anticipated “ Saja Boys ” collaboration performance, which was scheduled to take place on Day 2 of the 2025 MAMA Awards, has been officially canceled.
This decision is part of broader scaling-back efforts by the awards show in light of a recent tragedy.
Reason for Cancellation: Hong Kong Fire Tragedy
The primary reason cited for the cancellation of the special stage, along with other changes to the awards ceremony, is the tragic fire that occurred in Hong Kong.
In response to this devastating event, the 2025 MAMA Awards decided to scale back the grand nature of the ceremony out of respect and in recognition of the somber atmosphere.
Previous changes due to the tragedy already included the cancellation of the red carpet event ahead of the show.
On November 29, 2025, the cancellation was confirmed via official announcements from the entertainment agencies managing the participating idols.
KOZ Entertainment released a statement, explaining that BOYNEXTDOOR would no longer participate in the performance “due to the scaling down of the 2025 MAMA Awards.”
Similarly, PLEDIS Entertainment announced that TWS would not be participating in the scheduled performance.
The Canceled “KPop Demon Hunters” Collaboration
The canceled stage was set to be a special performance titled “ KPop Demon Hunters ,” featuring the song “Your Idol” by the project group Saja Boys.
The collaboration was highly anticipated as it was scheduled to bring together members from several popular fourth and fifth-generation K-Pop boy groups.
The lineup for the now-canceled performance consisted of five rising male idols:
- Leehan of BOYNEXTDOOR
- Wonbin of RIIZE
- Shinyu of TWS
- Park Gun Wook of ZEROBASEONE
- Han Yu Jin of ZEROBASEONE
While both BOYNEXTDOOR and TWS had already participated in Day 1 of the 2025 MAMA Awards on November 28, the cancellation of this collaborative stage highlights the immediate and necessary adjustments made by the awards ceremony producers following the events in Hong Kong.
The official statements concluded by asking for fans’ understanding regarding the change and extending thoughts and prayers to everyone affected by the tragedy.
