One Piece Chapter 1152 delivers big developments in the Final Saga. Zoro’s Conqueror’s Haki is finally confirmed, and Gaban steps in with an urgent warning for Luffy. He tells Luffy that the God’s Knights can be taken down, but only if Luffy pushes his Conqueror’s Haki to the next level. The chapter, titled “Terrible Day,” will officially release on Monday, June 23, 2025.
A flashback reveals that Loki may not be the villain many believed him to be. As the truth behind King Harald’s death begins to surface, a mysterious theft shakes Elbaph’s future.

Zoro Has Conqueror’s Haki
The chapter kicks off with Gaban telling Luffy he needs to improve his Conqueror’s Haki to take on the God’s Knights. But the real surprise comes when Gaban mentions that more than one Straw Hat can use it.
Sanji immediately thinks Gaban meant him, but he is actually talking to Zoro. Luffy already knew, which means the reveal isn’t news to the crew, just to the readers. This moment officially puts Zoro on another level, reinforcing what fans have speculated since his battle with King in Wano.
Luffy Tries Recruiting Loki
Hajrudin refuses to release Loki, but Luffy throws out one of his classic ideas. Just add Loki to the Straw Hat crew. That way, Hajrudin would have no choice but to let him go.
Nobody agrees with the plan. Not Loki, not Hajrudin, not even Zoro or Sanji. Still, it shows Luffy’s instinct to unite people under his banner, no matter how insane the situation.
Gaban and Shanks Were There During the “Terrible Day”
Things shift when Gaban reveals to Luffy, Loki, and Hajrudin that he and Shanks were both in Elbaph during the events of that terrible day. We enter a flashback set 14 years ago. A younger Loki confronts his father, King Harald, at the castle. He demands to know why the king aligned with the World Government—the same group that killed Rocks D. Xebec.
But when Loki arrives, it’s already too late. His father has been betrayed and pierced by his guards. The coup is already in motion, and Loki is framed for the murder. The fallout leads to his imprisonment and the collapse of Elbaph’s royal line.
A Legendary Fruit Was Stolen That Day
Meanwhile, in the same flashback, Shanks tells Gaban that he once bonded with King Harald and wanted to see him again. But chaos strikes, and in the middle of it all, a mysterious figure steals a legendary Devil Fruit present in Elbaph.
We still don’t know who this person is, but they could be Imu or a traitor secretly working for the World Government. The fruit might be connected to the Void Century, or something even more ancient. Some believe Loki may have eaten it, which could explain why the World Government is so eager to capture or recruit him.
Harald’s Rampage from 109 Years Ago
As the chapter ends, a second flashback begins. This one goes back 109 years and shows a much younger Harald rampaging through a human kingdom.
The implication is clear. Elbaph used to be feared and dominant. This past might be the reason the World Government kept close ties with the island and why King Harald eventually made a deal with them.
