One Piecechapter 1149 dropped recently, and if there’s one thing that it confirmed to the fans, it is that the Final Saga will be more intense than ever before, and that Imu is going to be the ultimate villain of the series. As things stand, Imu is in Elbaf, and they achieve thisby taking control of Gunko’s body, as seen in the previous chapter.
Imu is dead set on showing the people of Elbaf what the strength of a God looks like, and it is clear that things are going to be inevitably chaotic here moving forward. Imu’s powers will be put on full display, at least as much as he can use through Gunko. But, the powers themselves shouldn’t come as a big surprise to the fans as Oda has already revealed what Imu truly is long ago.
Imu Is In Elbaf Already In One Piece
InOne Piecechapter 1149, Imu revealed very key information to the fans. For one,it is now confirmed that the Holy Land of Marijoa is under attack. This also means that there is an absolute need for military strength for those of the World Government. If the Marines aren’t enough, the Imu has an absolute goal here and they absolutely cannot fail.
Mu will show thee the true dominance of God! — Imu
More than that,One Piecechapter 1149 also revealed that Imu will show the power of a God to those in Elbaf. This means a big chunk of Imu’s powers will be revealed here. It must be kept in mind that Imu is in Gunko’s body, which means that they cannot channel their full power here. At the same time, this display of strength should still be very powerful.
Imu also already revealed two powers inOne Piecechapter 1149. One of them is the power to possess anyone, or at least those with a special bloodline, and the second is Conqueror’s Haki. Imu being a conqueror doesn’t come as a surprise to anyone, and it is quite clear that their strength is out of the world.
Imu Is A Demon God, As Confirmed By The Harley
Imu Is Likely The Earth God Of The One Piece
Fans might be wondering what Imu really is, but the answer has already been revealed by Oda. Imu, I’m their essence, is the Demon God, just as Nika is the Sun God.Imu is the flip side of Nikaand his arch-enemy. The Harley gave the fans their first look at Imu. As fans know, the Earth God is mentioned in the First World, and this god eventually destroyed the world. Now that it is clear that Imu can use the power of possession, there is absolutely nothing that denies that the Earth God wasn’t alive in the Second World through possession as well.
The Earth God raged, and together with the Serpent of Hellfire, shrouded the world in death and darkness. — Harley
The fact is that in the mural, the Earth God is clearly shown destroying the world with the Serpent of Hellfire. Here, the Earth God is in a fully transformed state. In the Third World, however, the same dragon god is fighting against Nika, Loki, and many others together, and this time, in the hybrid state,and the Motherflame at their disposal.
In other words, Imu is the Earth God, who is most likely demonic in nature. Imu is also most likely the demon from hell. For one, Sabo compared Imu’s presence to hell itself, and on top of that, Imu can make use of magic. The summoning circles of the Abyss that the Five Elders and the Holy Knights use are clearly magic.
Imu can also give it take abilities such as the Yokai powers, and even immortality. In other words, Imu makes deals with their underlings in exchange for their lives, and this makes them a Demonic God. This is just a fraction of the power of the Earth God, and fans will definitely see more of itin the upcoming chapters in Elbaf.
