One Piece Chapter 1198 Spoilers: Full Summary & Leaks

Show spoilers: One Piece Chapter 1198 Spoilers: Luffy’s New Form, Imu’s Third Form & More

Spoiler warning: this article reveals what happens in One Piece Chapter 1198. These are unconfirmed leaks posted before the official release. They usually turn out right, but details can change until the chapter is out on Sunday, November 8, 2026 at 15:00 UTC (release times for every country).

The spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1198, titled “The Island of Monsters”, came out on November 3. Three big things happen on Elbaph: Sanji wins his fight with Killingham, Imu takes a third, monster-like form and beats Loki in one blow, and Luffy shows up in a strange new form that nobody recognises.

One Piece Chapter 1198 spoilers: quick summary

  • Title: “The Island of Monsters”.
  • Cover page: Pudding wearing glasses with three lenses, one for each of her three eyes.
  • Sanji vs. Killingham ends: Sanji breaks Killingham’s armor with his Conqueror’s Haki kicks, and Killingham runs away in fear.
  • The children are saved: the Rain God Zaza cuts off her own arm and throws the kidnapped children onto the ship.
  • Imu’s third form: a huge creature with a long body, a long neck and massive horns.
  • Loki falls: Loki fights Imu in his hybrid Zoan form and is beaten with a single blow.
  • Luffy’s new form: black hair, a big ape-like nose, a tail and fangs. He bites Zaza and she explodes.
  • Break: there is no chapter the week after.

Sanji beats Killingham

One Piece Chapter 1198 picks up right where Chapter 1197 stopped, with Sanji’s newly awakened Conqueror’s Haki. Sanji shatters the Omen armor that only Conqueror’s Haki can break and sends Killingham flying. The immortal Holy Knight does not keep fighting: he flees in fear, the same way Sommers ran from Zoro.

That is close to what we expected in our Chapter 1198 predictions: Sanji won with Conqueror’s Haki in his legs. The surprise is that Killingham is not destroyed, he escapes. As he runs, he senses Imu’s Haki.

Zaza lets the children go

Zaza, the giant Rain God that Killingham created with his Devil Fruit, stretches toward the ship, cuts off one of her own arms and throws the kidnapped children of Elbaph on board. The children are safe, but Zaza is still on the island.

Imu’s third form and Loki’s defeat

Elsewhere, Imu transforms again, into a third form: an enormous creature with an elongated torso, a long neck and huge horns. Leakers say it looks the most like the devil painted on the Harley mural of any form so far, but the leaks only describe its outline.

Loki finally fights in his full hybrid Zoan form. Imu asks him about Elbaph’s ancient technology; Loki says he knows nothing about it. Imu admits Loki is strong, then beats him with one powerful blow.

Loki also says he never expected Luffy to run away in the middle of the fight. Imu then says he has to go back to Mary Geoise soon, or his life will be in danger, and turns his attention to Luffy.

Luffy’s new form explained

So where did Luffy go? In the giants’ village, Gaban and Usopp wonder why he suddenly ran off. Gaban says: “That kid… he’s a Zoan-type.”

Then Luffy appears on a rooftop, watching Zaza, in a form never seen before:

  • black hair;
  • a large, ape-like nose;
  • a tail;
  • fangs.

He jumps onto Zaza, grabs her and bites her water body, which explodes. The giants watching shout: “Who the hell is that?!” According to the leaks, Luffy only makes animal-like noises in this form and does not speak.

What is it? The chapter does not name the form. Luffy’s fruit, the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, is a Mythical Zoan, and Gaban’s line points to a Zoan transformation. One well-known leaker reads it as an “incomplete” version of the fruit’s power, but that is an interpretation, not something the chapter says. On Reddit, fans have already nicknamed it “Gear Death”, a joke, not an official name.

Is there a break after One Piece Chapter 1198?

Yes. The leaks say One Piece Chapter 1198 is followed by a break week, so there will be no new chapter the week after. We will add the exact date of Chapter 1199 as soon as Shonen Jump confirms it.

Where the Chapter 1198 spoilers come from

The text summary was first posted on X by the account PewPiece on November 3, 2026, and the leaker Redon added details about Luffy’s form and Imu’s design. Reddit’s r/OnePiece then shared the first images. We have not seen the full chapter: everything here is unconfirmed until the official release. We will replace this with a full recap once the chapter is out.
