Explore the most anticipated Egghead moments in One Piece, including epic battles and thrilling surprises in the upcoming arc.
After six months of hiatus, the One Piece anime is returning, hyping up the fans. The Egghead Arc has quickly become one of the most exciting storylines in One Piece. As the anime gears up to adapt this saga, fans eagerly await some of the biggest battles to date. As this arc is the first story in the Final Saga, it not only brings amazing battles but also unravels past mysteries and reshapes the world’s balance of power.
From Luffy’s fight against Saturn to Zoro’s battle against Lucci, here are the eight most anticipated moments from the Egghead Arc that fans can’t wait to see animated!
1) Luffy’s Gear 5 in Action on Egghead
During the Wano arc, we got to witness one of the most groundbreaking moments in One Piece history when Luffy unlocked his Gear 5 to beat Kaidou. Egghead gives another chance to see it in action. Also, unlike his fight with Kaidou when he first discovered this power, Luffy is much better at using it again as he now has experience with using his awakened form.
Gear 5 is unique because of its cartoonish physics and creative combat style. When he would activate in Egghead’s high-tech environment, it creates the perfect scenario for a dynamic battle. Luffy faces strong enemies like Kizaru, the Seraphim, and Saturn, who push his powers to the limit once again. Fans are excited to see how Toei Animation delivers this visual after its debut in Wano. Watching Gear 5 in full force again is something no fan wants to miss!
2) Dr. Vegapunk’s Revelations About the Void Century
This is one of the most anticipated Egghead moments when Vegapunk broadcasts a message to the world. He tries to expose a major secret about the Void Century. This era of history holds information about the Ancient Kingdom, Joy Boy, and the origins of the World Government. The World Government has kept this a big hidden secret for the longest time. Now, we finally get a glimpse of it as they lose control. For years, fans have speculated about the Void Century, and Vegapunk’s knowledge will confirm some of these theories while also raising new questions.
Finally, when he attempts to expose the secrets hidden for the last 800 years, we learn that geography was different from the current situation, as an ancient weapon was used to cause this. Now, this arc gives him a role as significant as any major battle in the series. When the anime airs, it will be one of the most anticipated moments.
3) The Straw Hats vs. Seraphim Battles
Scientists genetically modified clones of former Warlords, giving them Lunarian traits. This was a huge advancement in the World Government’s military power. On Egghead, Straw Hat Pirates are forced to battle with these nearly invincible cyborgs. This leads to some intense fight scenes in the arc.
Each Seraphim has the strength of a Warlord and the durability of a Lunarian, making them one of the toughest opponents the Straw Hats have ever faced. Fans are especially excited to see the battles between Zoro vs. S-Hawk (Mihawk’s clone), Sanji vs. S-Shark (Jinbe’s clone), and Luffy vs. S-Bear (Kuma’s clone).
These battles reflect on how powerful these seraphim are as they push the Straw Hats to their limits. We also need to consider that the animators will bring these battles to life with high-quality choreography and effects, making them a major highlight of the Egghead arc.
4) Kizaru’s Arrival and the Admiral Showdown
In this arc, Admiral Kizaru is introduced as the man who nearly defeated the Straw Hat crew during the Sabaody Archipelago arc. Now, when he fights them again, it will be the first time Luffy has faced an Admiral since claiming the title of Yonko. Kizaru has always been a challenging opponent due to his light-speed ability. He has eaten the Pika Pika no Mi (Glint-Glint Fruit) devil fruit, a Logia type that grants the ability to create, control, and transform into light.
In Luffy vs. Kizaru, we will see how much Luffy has mastered his Haki and Gear 5 compared to last time. He now fights against one of the strongest Marines. Another important fact about the battle is that it has been a rematch in the making. Now, Luffy has a chance to prove himself as a captain by defeating the man responsible for almost destroying his crew. Kizaru and Luffy will deliver a fast-paced and visually stunning fight, ranking it among the best battles in One Piece history.
5) Saturn’s Mysterious Powers Unleashed
Since the show aired, Gorosei have remained a mystery, they are the most powerful figures in the World Government. In Egghead, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn finally steps onto the battlefield, revealing his monstrous true form and terrifying abilities. His demonic transformation, along with his active participation in battle, gives us an idea of the potential strength of the rest of the Gorosei.
Saturn has a terrifying ability to paralyze his opponents, regeneration powers, and sheer durability, making him an incredibly dangerous foe, even for someone like Luffy. This marks the first time Gorosei has personally entered a battle. This makes the stakes higher than ever as the story has entered the final saga. Seeing Saturn’s powers unleashed in animation is bound to be one of the most chilling and exciting moments of the arc.
6) Bonney’s Past and Kuma’s Tragic Backstory
One of the most anticipated Egghead Moments is the revelation of Jewelry Bonney’s past and her connection to Bartholomew Kuma. For years, Bonney has been a mysterious character, but this arc finally explores her origins. Additionally, we also get to know the heartbreaking truth behind her father’s suffering.
Kuma’s tragic backstory was heart-wrenching as the government transformed him from a revolutionary and king into a mindless weapon. His final goodbye to his daughter Bonney, and the loss of his free will add emotional weight to the arc.
Fans expect this moment to deliver some of the most powerful storytelling in the anime, much like Robin’s “I Want to Live” moment or Law’s backstory. They are prepared for an emotional rollercoaster when this episode airs.
7) Zoro vs. Lucci
Another fight that will cause hype among fans in the Egghead arc is Zoro vs. Rob Lucci. Lucci, a former CP9 assassin and now a member of CP0, is a bigger threat than before as he has awakened his Zoan abilities. Zoro, on the other hand, has also become stronger by gaining advanced Haki and a blackened Enma.
This fight will be interesting to watch as Zoro uses his Kingly Ambition (Conqueror’s Haki infusion) in battle, proving to be a league above Lucci. It is going to be an intense battle with amazing swordplay, and fans just love to watch Zoro actively fight, as it surely will be a visual treat.
8) The Aftermath: Egghead Incident’s Global Impact
The incidents that took place in Egghead are set to be one of the most world-shaking events in One Piece. The destruction of the island, the Gorosei’s direct involvement, and the revelations about the Void Century have changed everything. The consequences of all these events will make waves across their world.
We have finally reached the start of the endgame for the series. Fans are now eagerly waiting to see how the world reacts to these shocking events.
