One Piece Episode 1115 recap
One Piece Episode 1115 is titled ‘The Marines Surprised! Marine Headquarters' Former Admiral, Kuzan.’ The episode begins with a clash between Blackbeard and Kuzan. Initially, Blackbeard confronts Kuzan for attacking his territory, but the tension quickly dissolves as the two share drinks and discuss their pasts.
Kuzan reveals the details of his grueling battle against Sakazuki, where he lost his leg. They also touch upon the state of the Road Poneglyphs, with Kuzan mentioning the enigmatic pirate Hinokizu, rumored to possess one of these critical artifacts.
The atmosphere shifts when Laffitte suggests killing Kuzan to steal his Devil Fruit powers in One Piece Episode 1115. Kuzan, overhearing this, reacts with fury, freezing many in the bar. To calm the situation, Blackbeard extends an offer for Kuzan to join his crew.
After some initial reluctance, Kuzan accepts, aligning with Blackbeard due to their shared disdain for the Marines' sense of justice. In the present, Kuzan finishes recounting his tale, leading Garp to demand that he sever ties with Blackbeard and return to the Marines.
Their battle continues, with Kuzan freezing Garp in ice, only for Garp to break free and deliver a powerful blow with his Blue Hole technique, sending Kuzan crashing into the ground. Meanwhile, on Winner Island, Blackbeard prepares to kill Trafalgar Law in One Piece Episode 1115.
He has defeated the Heart Pirates and sunk their ship, the Polar Tang. Bepo, grievously injured, takes a desperate measure by consuming a drug from Chopper, transforming into his Sulong form. With this enhanced power, Bepo manages to overcome Blackbeard and Van Augur momentarily.
Though his Sulong form quickly dissipates, One Piece Episode 1115 ends as Bepo rescues the unconscious Law and swims away as Burgess hurls boulders at them.
