One Piece chapter 1104 sees Luffy unexpectedly and inexplicably disappear from the battlefield

Full summary spoilers

One Piece chapter 1104’s full summary spoilers claim the upcoming issue begins immediately where the previous one ended, seeing Saint Jaygarcia Saturn shocked that Kuma is still moving. It’s then revealed that Saturn had already pressed Bartholomew Kuma’s self-destruct switch a few days after the Revolutionary Army rescued him from Mariejois.

Likewise, Saturn is completely awestruck that Kuma is still able to move, while Dr. Vegapunk thinks to himself that there’s no scientific explanation for this. Vegapunk also adds that there’s no scientific explanation for how he knew his daughter, Jewelry Bonney, was on Egghead Island.

In any case, One Piece chapter 1104’s full summary spoilers then show Sanji, Franky, and Vegapunk Atlas all being shocked at Kuma’s sudden arrival. Just as Kuma’s punch is about to hit Saturn, he’s shown remembering some parts of his life, but it’s emphasized that nothing new is seen.

Kuma’s punch then crushes Saturn’s face, but the Gorosei member is still conscious and is seen looking at Kuma very angrily. Saturn is then sent flying across the island by Kuma’s attack, colliding with some buildings which then fall on top of and flatten him. The Marines are all shocked by the fact that a slave punched a Gorosei member, as Dr. Vegapunk, Sanji, Franky, and Atlas all realize they can move again.

One Piece chapter 1104 then allegedly sees Dr. Vegapunk order everyone to bring Bonney back to the Labo-Phase so they can escape. He then realizes that Kuma’s self-destruct switch doesn’t literally destroy his body, also commenting on how he knows it can be weaponized. Dr. Vegapunk then explains he followed Saturn’s orders by creating a mechanism that can effectively “turn off” Kuma.

Once the switch is activated, he shouldn’t be able to move or take any orders in theory. Dr. Vegapunk then speculates on “the Buccaneer’s special ability” not being superhuman strength, but something else. However, he trails off before finishing, as the chapter shows Bonney thanking Kuma for what she saw in his memories.

One Piece chapter 1104 then sees Kuma hug Bonney and stop moving, while the Marines are shown discussing how they can’t find Luffy anywhere and he has seemingly disappeared. It’s then specified that no other update is given in the issue on the other Straw Hats, Rob Lucci, Kaku, or any of the other Vegapunk Satellites besides Atlas.

The spoilers then specify that Saturn emerges from the rubble at this point, having lost his right arm and his left horn, and having his body badly damaged. He then uses his powers to recover, with black flames seemingly appearing and regenerating 100% of his right arm and left horn which was destroyed.

One Piece chapter 1104 then sees Saturn ask Dr. Vegapunk how this could be happening, to which he responds that they can just say it’s because of love. Saturn then tries to attack Kuma, but Sanji deflects the attack. Dr. Vegapunk then orders Atlas to carry Kuma up to the Labo-Phase, while Franky prepares to fire a Radical Beam at Saturn.

The attack pierces Saturn’s body, but he easily recovers. However, Admiral Kizaru then appears, kicking Franky away. Dr. Vegapunk then tells off Kizaru, prodding him about how his heart can’t stand doing this much longer and calling him a sad man. Seemingly about to tear up, Kizaru simply responds by saying that he should have brought darker sunglasses.

One Piece chapter 1104 then allegedly ends with Saturn ordering the start of a Buster Call on Egghead Island. The Marine ships surrounding the island are seen preparing to start the attack in the final panels of the issue. Excitingly, however, it is confirmed that there will be no break for the series next week.
