One Piece episode 1127 began where the last installment left off, with Kizaru in Luffy’s gigantic clutches. He pulled the Marine Admiral out of the Labophase before winding up and throwing Kizaru away from Egghead through the sky.

Vegapunk Atlas then revealed her plan to go below to the Stratophase and stop the Mark III Pacifista units. Vegapunk Stella, or Dr. Vegapunk, also decided to go with her, with Vegapunk Edison staying behind to deactivate the Frontier Dome.

Focus then shifted to Zoro and Lucci, with the former avoiding a lethal attack as Luffy watched from afar and offered Zoro some help. He rejected this, telling him to focus on Kizaru, who had used his Devil Fruit powers to return to Egghead and split into multiple light clones of himself. Luffy battled the clones while looking for the real Kizaru, who took advantage of Luffy’s naivety and escaped back into the Labophase.

Stella, Atlas, and Sanji were then seen riding in the Vegatank, racing down to the Stratophase as Kizaru spotted and attacked them. However, Luffy intercepted and swallowed Kizaru’s attack, containing it within his rubbery body despite crying out in pain.

The Pacifista units then spotted and began targeting the Vegapunks, prompting Atlas to briefly exit and give them new orders. The episode ended with Saint Jaygarcia Saturn seemingly preparing to make his move.

One Piece episode 1128 what to expect (speculative)

One Piece episode 1128 should open up with a continued focus on Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, who’ll likely ask for a sitrep from his forces. After realizing that the Straw Hats and co are slowly turning the tide, he’ll likely begin heading towards the battlefield himself. His first move is likely to involve restraining or redirecting the Mark III Pacifista units in some way, shape, or form.

Episode 1128 should also see Luffy and the other strong Straw Hats, like Zoro, Sanji, and Jinbe, sense and comment on Saturn’s presence. As they do so, the Gorosei member is likely to reveal what Devil Fruit powers or other powers he has. The issue will likely end with Gear 5 Luffy being forced to confront Saturn as the threat he poses is made abundantly clear.
