One Piece Episode 1126 Recap

The episode starts with Kuma’s arrival on the Redline. The holy knights tried to stop him with chains, but it wasn’t enough. Exhausted from climbing the Redline, Kuma sees Akainu approaching him. Akainu tries his best to stop him, but Kuma somehow manages to escape.
We then see a flashback to where Bonney got captured by Marines on a burning island, somewhere in the New World. Akainu tells her that Kuma’s sense of self will never return and that he volunteered to become the government’s weapon. But Bonney doesn’t believe him and says she will make them pay for what they have done to Kuma.
The scene changes to Egghead Island, where we see Luffy fighting Kizaru in Gear 4 form. Kizaru waits patiently for him to wear down, and when he does, he kicks with so force that it sends him flying across the Island.

He heads towards Franky’s team, whose robot was destroyed because Luffy crashed into it after Kizaru’s attack. Bonney tries to fight him, but she’s no match for him, as he also sends her flying to the ceiling of the barrier with his kick.
When Franky tries to attack him with his radical beam, Kizaru suddenly disappears. Lilith instantly realizes that Kizaru might have gone to Stella, so she tells Franky to call Ussop to inform him of it.

The scene shifts to Vegapunk’s headquarters, where we see Vegapunk celebrating since he figured out the deactivation code of the barrier of Egghead Island. When Ussop picked up the call, it was already too late since Kizaru had already arrived there.
However, when things weren’t looking good for them, Luffy arrived in Gear 5 to save them. The episode ends with Luffy grabbing Kizaru by hand after enlarging himself with the power of Gear 5.
