The wait for the One Piece Chapter 1174 raw scans is finally over for fans across the globe, and the latest spoilers confirm that Eiichiro Oda has delivered one of the most visually stunning and lore-heavy chapters in the entire Elbaf arc. The full detailed summaries, originally translated by TalkOP, have flooded social media, revealing the massive team-up between Gear 5 Luffy and the newly transformed Dragon Loki against Imu’s demon army. The chapter, titled “The strongest thing in the world”, officially arrives on Sunday, February 15, 2026, via Manga Plus and Shonen Jump apps, but the raw scans and spoilers are already making rounds across forums and fan communities .
The leaked information paints a picture of absolute chaos in Elbaf. The stakes have never been higher, with giant children falling toward the Underworld and the legendary Drums of Liberation echoing across the land of warriors for the first time since the battle against Kaido. This is not just another fight; this is the prophecy of Sun God Nika finally colliding with the god-slaying prince of Elbaf, Loki.
One Piece 1174 Release Schedule: When and Where to Read the Full Chapter

The chapter will be free to read on both official platforms, though Oda is taking a break next week following this massive release .
The raw scans and image leaks typically surface 48 to 72 hours before the official launch, meaning the full visual spoilers are circulating now. However, only the detailed text summaries provided by trusted leakers like Redon have been fully verified as of February 12, 2026 .
Dragon Loki’s Terrifying Debut: A Black Western Dragon That Dwarfs Gear 5
The biggest takeaway from the One Piece Chapter 1174 raw scans is the full-body reveal of Loki’s Devil Fruit transformation. Speculation is finally over. Loki is not a mythical zoan user like Kaido or Yamato; his dragon form is distinctly different. Described as a massive black Western dragon, Loki’s design takes visual cues from the dragons in Game of Thrones mixed with the classic head shape of the dragon from Sleeping Beauty. His signature horns remain, but his eyes resemble the hollow, corrupted look of Big Mom during her rampage or the Domi Reversed giants under Imu’s control .
The scale is what shocks readers the most. Giant Gear 5 Luffy, who is already several times larger than a normal human, stands on Loki’s head next to Ragnir, the squirrel who wields the legendary hammer. Luffy is four times larger than Ragnir, yet Luffy himself is only one-third the size of one of Loki’s horns. This size comparison solidifies Loki as potentially the largest living creature shown in the series so far, surpassing even the ancient giants Oars and Little Oars Jr. .
Loki’s abilities extend beyond raw strength. When he appears, the weather of Elbaf changes instantly. Snow begins to fall, and lightning strikes across the entire island. This is not a coincidence or a side effect of the environment; the spoilers confirm that Loki’s Devil Fruit grants him dominion over storms and ice. Although the name of the fruit is not revealed in Chapter 1174, fans are already speculating that it could be a legendary mythical zoan tied to Norse mythology, possibly the Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Nidhogg or something connected to Fenrir .
The Rescue of Elbaf’s Children: A Tearful Family Reunion
Before the arrival of the two monsters, One Piece 1174 focuses heavily on the emotional weight of the giant families. Sommers, one of the God’s Knights, is thrilled when the MMA monster destroys the transport ship. The children, still under the control of Gunko’s arrows, march toward the edge of the dock, preparing to fall into the Underworld. Sommers’ reaction is disturbing; he drools with excitement, calling the mass death a “divine” outcome and blaming the “Great One” (Imu) for possessing Gunko’s body .
Colon, the son of Ripley and Dorry, breaks down, crying that he will never be bad again. A short flashback shows Ripley scolding Colon for taking a toy robot (which looks like Emeth) from another child after winning a duel. Ripley teaches him that because he is stronger than others, he must be kind. As Colon reaches the edge, Ripley hugs him, injuring herself on the thorns. She refuses to let him die alone. In a double-page spread that fans are calling incredibly sad, all the giant parents, including Oimo, Ange, and Road, embrace their children and fall together into the abyss .
This is the moment Gear 5 Luffy and Dragon Loki intervene. The children and parents land safely on Loki’s back, and he carries them to higher ground before turning his attention to the MMA monsters .
Gear 5 and the Drums of Liberation Echo Across Elbaf
The Drums of Liberation make their long-awaited return in One Piece Chapter 1174. As Loki engages the demon army and Luffy laughs atop his head, a distinct rhythm begins to shake the entire island of Elbaf. The giants, who have lived for centuries, recognize the sound as something ancient and powerful. Sommers is furious, while Imu, still looking through Gunko’s eyes, watches in complete silence .
Jarul, the oldest giant in Elbaf, delivers the final words of the chapter. He speaks of the day of the lightning snow storm, when a gigantic beast covers the sky, and with the Drum of Liberation, the Sun God descends. This is the first time in the story where a character explicitly connects the sound of Luffy’s heartbeat to an ancient prophecy about Elbaf’s liberation. The chapter ends with Luffy laughing, clearly having the time of his life riding the enormous dragon .
The return of the drums is significant. In the past, Zunesha identified this rhythm when Luffy first awakened his powers in Wano. Now, the giants of Elbaf hear it too. This confirms that Joy Boy’s return is not just a vague promise; it is an observable event that affects the entire world .
Loki’s Rampage: The God-Slayer Takes on Imu’s Army
Dragon Loki does not hold back. The spoilers describe a final double-page spread that rivals the most epic moments in the series. Loki destroys everything in his path, crushing multiple MMA monsters effortlessly. His power is described as raw and destructive, lacking the finesse of Kaido’s flame clouds but making up for it with sheer mass and environmental destruction. The lightning and snow serve as his weapons, turning the battlefield into a frozen wasteland .
Luffy, still in Gear 5, stands on Loki’s head alongside Ragnir. The squirrel, who was previously seen wielding the hammer, now appears to be fighting alongside the prince. While Luffy is not the one directly defeating the monsters in this panel, his presence alongside Loki signals a temporary alliance. This is a major shift considering Loki was introduced as a prisoner who wanted to destroy the world .
Fans are debating whether Loki is actually in control of himself. His eyes resemble the Domi Reversed giants, leading some to believe he is still under some form of influence or that his Devil Fruit has a mind of its own. However, his actions—saving the children and fighting the God’s Knights—suggest he is acting with clear intent, at least for now .

Fan Reactions to the Loki and Luffy Team-Up
Social media erupted following the release of the One Piece 1174 raw scans. On forums like WorstGen and Reddit, the initial reaction to “another dragon” was mixed, with some users expressing fatigue over mythical zoan transformations. However, once the full context of the size comparison and the visual design leaked, the tone shifted to excitement. One user noted that Kaido’s dragon form now looks small compared to the sheer scale of Loki’s black dragon .
“Jesus Christ. Someone. Give me something. I’m not asking for the whole chapter. I just wanna see Loki’s design. Please.” — Fan reaction on WorstGen forums prior to the scan release .
After the design was revealed, the same thread filled with comparisons to Game of Thrones and praise for Oda’s ability to make a western dragon feel fresh within the One Piece world. The phrase “Game of Thrones” trended briefly among the anime community on Twitter/X .
Many fans also connected the chapter title, “The strongest thing in the world”, to previous titles like “The World’s Strongest Man” (Whitebeard) and “The World’s Strongest Creature” (Kaido). The speculation is that Loki, or perhaps the combination of Luffy and Loki, now represents a new tier of power that surpasses the old emperors .
