One Piece Episode 1140: Bonney Witnesses the Sun God Nika

One Piece once again delivered a peak moment in Episode 1140 when Luffy transformed into Gear 5, unleashing his awakened powers that turned the entire Egghead Island into rubber. Thanks to this overwhelming ability, Kuma, Atlas, and Franky were saved. As the Drums of Liberation echoed across the battlefield, Bonney finally witnessed the legendary Sun God Nika right before her eyes.
Her emotions were a mix of joy and disbelief—she couldn’t believe that the mythical figure she had only heard about was standing in front of her in the form of Straw Hat Luffy. At that moment, Vegapunk revealed the truth:
“I couldn’t be certain either until I saw it for myself. The very Straw Hat Luffy who Kuma had placed his hopes on… he was the Sun God Nika.”
This revelation, paired with Bonney seeing Luffy in his awakened form, was nothing short of pure goosebumps. She realized her father Kuma had always been right—that the hero of liberation wasn’t just a story, but real. The way Bonney looked at Kuma’s memory in that instant felt deeply personal. It was as if her soul connected with her father’s lifelong belief.
“His actions move my soul.”- Kuma
Indeed, Kuma always believed that when the Sun God appeared, he would bring hope to everyone. Knowing that Luffy was alive and had achieved Gear 5 meant safety, freedom, and a light for all those oppressed by the World Government. As Vegapunk himself declared, “The Buster Call is futile, because people all over the world have been waiting for him for centuries.” Hearing those words brought tears to Bonney’s eyes, cementing this episode as one of the most emotional highlights of the Egghead Arc.
The Arrival of the Elbaf Warriors: Dorry and Brogy

Just when the battle on Egghead was heating up, the scene shifted to one of the most epic entrances in recent memory. The legendary Elbaf warriors Dorry and Brogy arrived on Egghead Island, shaking the entire battlefield. Without hesitation, they launched a fierce attack on the Marines, who desperately questioned why the giant warriors had come all the way to Egghead.
Their answer was simple yet powerful: “We came here for the Sun God.”
The Marines unleashed a relentless barrage of cannon fire, but Dorry and Brogy’s colossal ship stood unshaken—proving the true might of Elbaf’s heroes. Their overwhelming presence crushed Marine ships and scattered soldiers like ants, marking their return as one of the most shocking and hype-inducing moments of the arc.
Luffy’s Punch on Kizaru Shakes the Entire Egghead

After regaining his strength, Luffy once again transformed into his full Gear 5 power. The Marines desperately tried to capture him, but his awakened ability turned the entire Egghead into rubber once again. Watching him in this form, the Marines trembled in fear as if they were staring at the devil himself.
Luffy’s iconic laughter echoed across the island, and the ground itself jiggled under the force of his aura. For nearly seven minutes straight, his laughter dominated the episode—an absolute peak moment that showcased his overwhelming presence.
Meanwhile, Sanji proved to be the MVP of the episode. Not only did he hold back one of the Five Elders, but he also fought against Admiral Kizaru while simultaneously protecting Bonney. His determination and strength made it clear that Sanji is truly the GOAT and someone who should never be underestimated.
Just as Saturn ordered Kizaru to finish off Bonney and Kuma, Kizaru prepared to strike. But before he could deliver the blow, Luffy landed a devastating punch on Kizaru, sending shockwaves through the battlefield. This was the second time Kizaru had tasted Luffy’s fist, and even though he stood against him, a part of Kizaru seemed to acknowledge that the Sun God had finally arrived.
Saturn Kills Dr. Vegapunk as Pacifistas Obey Bonney

In a shocking twist, Saturn commanded the Pacifistas—machines built in Kuma’s image—to eliminate Bonney and Kuma themselves. The sheer cruelty of this order stunned everyone. But Dr. Vegapunk, being the genius he was, had already anticipated such a possibility. He secretly reprogrammed the Pacifistas to follow Bonney’s command instead of the Five Elders.
When Bonney issued her order, the Pacifistas turned against the Marines and launched a full-scale attack. This was one of the smartest and most emotional turns in the entire Egghead Arc. However, this act enraged Saturn, who mercilessly killed Dr. Vegapunk on the spot.
The death of Vegapunk shocked everyone, leaving Sanji especially devastated. He had promised to protect the doctor but failed to fully keep his word. This moment left both the Straw Hats and fans across the world in emotional turmoil.
The Awakening of the Giant Robot Emeth

Another jaw-dropping scene came when Luffy’s Gear 5 transformation and the echoing Drums of Liberation triggered something deep beneath Egghead. The ancient Giant Robot- Emeth, finally awakened. Emerging through the flames caused by the Buster Call, Emeth’s colossal figure walked toward the battlefield, setting the stage for a new chapter of chaos and mystery.
This awakening has been teased for a long time, and now the time has finally come. While Episode 1140 ended with Emeth’s revival, the true extent of his powers will likely be revealed in the upcoming episodes.
