This article contains spoilers from One Piece's Elbaf Arc.

Summary

  • Zoro and Sanji will fight Dorry and Brogy in Elbaf.
  • Dorry and Brogy are now under Imu's control.
  • Zoro and Sanji's bounties could reach over 2 billion berries.

One Piece's Elbaf arc has seen the likes of the Straw Hat Pirates take on their biggest challenge in the story yet — the Holy Knights and Imu. On their own, the Holy Knights are strong, but they're not invincible. However, when Imu is thrown into the mix, the equation changes. As fans know, the Straw Hat Pirates have to be at their absolute best to take on such massive threats, and other than Luffy, there are two main characters that everyone has their eyes on — Zoro and Sanji.

Known to be the Wings of the Pirate King, Zoro, and Sanji are immensely powerful pirates, but they're far from their peaks right now. Because of that, it is imperative that Oda gives them their next fights, and with that, new bounties as well. Fans are in for a ride in Elbaf, and hopefully, it'll get even better.

Zoro and Sanji Will fight Dorry And Brogy

  • Dorry and Brogy Parallel Zoro and Sanji
  • Dorry and Brogy Are Invincible

At this point in time, it is clear that Zoro and Sanji will fight against Dorry and Brogy later down the line in One Piece's Elbaf arc. As seen in the previous chapter, Dorry and Brogy have, sadly, turned into demons by Imu. Using a Devil contract, Imu was able to turn them to their side without much trouble at all. For one, this goes to show what Imu can do without even being in the country physically.

Secondly, this move has great implications for Dorry and Brogy. While they were Elbaf's two strongest until recently, as proven by the fact that they could hold their own against the Gorosei, they are always going to have a bigger combat-related role. Imu asked Dorry and Brogy to kill Jarul and become the King of the Country instead. This would essentially give Dorry and Brogy immense authority and they could even sell our Elbaf and hand them over to the World Government. They are completely under Imu's control, and someone has to take them down. It certainly cannot be Luffy, since he's going to go after Imu. There is also Loki, who will likely also follow Luffy and fight Imu.

Out of all the biggest fighters, this leaves Zoro and Sanji, who will most likely be the main enemies for Dorry and Brogy. This isn't simply strength-based. Dorry and Brogy are both parallels to Zoro and Sanji. They're rivals and have been fighting for 102 years to decide once and for all who the stronger of the two is. Unfortunately, this duel will never be settled. Similarly, Sanji and Zoro are rivals and this parallel with Zoro and Sanji is going to be absolutely essential to have them grow by defeating them.

Zoro and Sanji's Next Bounty Has To Be Around 2 Billion Berries At Least

Zoro and Sanji Will Be Equals

As for Zoro and Sanji's bounties, it is clear that they will gain a much higher bounty if they manage to win against the demons of Elbaf. For one, it must be remembered that Dorry and Brogy both have a 1.8 billion berry bounty. On top of that, they're now bigger and stronger than ever before and also immortal. By all means, Dorry and Brogy are on a completely different level right now.

As such, by beating Dorry and Brogy, Zoro and Sanji's bounty should logically go over 2 billion berries. At the very least, both of them should have a 2 billion bounty each, which would certainly give a massive boost to the name of the Straw Hat Yonko crew.

One Piece Chapter 1150 will be out in a week. As usual, One Piece is going to drop on Sunday. In Japan, One Piece drops at 12AM JST on Monday. However, the vast majority of international readers will see the chapter available on May 11. The official release date of One Piece Chapter 1150 is June 1, 2025.
