One Piece anime has finally made its comeback after a 6-month-long hiatus with episode 1125. During this break time, it seems like Toei Animation has worked a lot on its animation, which is looking sharper, more fluid, and more visually stunning than ever.

The episode ends with a clash between Luffy and Kizaru, marking the beginning of their long-awaited rematch. But don’t worry, as in this article, we’ve got you covered with the release date for Episode 1126 and what you can expect to see next.

One Piece Episode 1125 Recap

The episode, “A Clash of Two Men’s Determination! Kizaru and Sentomauru,” kicks off with a new opening, showing us some glimpses of what’s to come in the upcoming episodes. Viewers can skip the opening. Nothing to see here.
The episode starts with Luffy introducing himself on the call to the World Government. As soon as Saturn (one of the elders) hears this, he commands one of his soldiers to make sure the safety of York, Punk Records, and the powerplant of the Mother Flame.
The scene shifts to Egghead Island, where we see Kizaru attacking Sentomaru. The latter manages to hold his ground against him for a brief moment, but he is obviously no match for an Admiral.

In a flashback, we see Kizaru and Vegapunk meeting Sentomaru for the first time in a jungle. They were both shocked to see him beat off all the bears all by himself. Seeing his monstrous strength, Vegapunk hires him as a bodyguard, while Kizaru decides to guide him.
Moving to the current time, we see Kizaru striking Sentomaru with his lightning beam to take him down. Kizaru then borrows his control device to command the Pasaficta to strike down the sea monsters bothering the Marines’ navy ship.

Lucci then betrays the Straw Hats by attempting to assassinate Vegapunk using his Finger Pistol technique. However, Stussy steps in at the last moment and takes the hit, shielding Vegapunk from the attack. Zoro wastes no time and engages in a fight with him.

The scene changes to Kizaru, where he has pinpointed the location of Thousand Sunny. As soon as he finds it, He tries to strike it down with his lightning attack, but stops midway after seeing Luffy approach him.
He tries to greet Luffy, but remembering their encounter at Sabaody Archipelago, Luffy immediately gears up for battle, showing no intention of holding back against the Admiral.
