Notice: One Piece manga chapter 1106 spoilers
The last chapter of the One Piece manga was truly crazy: while, on the one hand, we had the resurgence of Gear 5 in all its splendor, on the other, Eiichiro Oda once again welcomed two old friends from the Hats straw.
Dorry and Brogy made their notable appearance in the last panel of the chapter, confirming that the giants are very close and, above all, that they are on Luffy’s side. But there is something that goes beyond that: numerology. As Pewpiece recounts on Twitter, the first time we saw this pair of giants was in the chapter 116 .
Well, it turns out that his return seemed quite premeditated, since it took until chapter 1106 when they meet the Straw Hats again. That is to say, Oda waited for this succession of figures for the giants to return to the forefront, demonstrating once again that he had measured everything from the beginning.
The names of the chapters also stand out, but it is something much more interpretable: the name of chapter 116 is called « Giant », while chapter 1106 has the title « On your side »; If we join the two episodes together, we end up with something like « The giants will be on your side », leaving one more reason to connect the two chapters. Of course, the Japanese mangaka knew very well at that time the importance of these two giants, and he once again demonstrates that the most powerful ability of One piece It is undoubtedly the ability to make friends.
