The upcoming release of One Piece chapter 1113 on April 29, 2024, promises to be an exciting one for fans, with intriguing revelations from Vega punk’s livestream about the “truth of the world” and the unfolding despair of the Gorosei.
Since their introduction, the Gorosei have remained powerful figures, and speculation about their true powers and origins has only grown. Fans have been delving into the series for clues, particularly examining the connections between these grand figures and the levels of Impel Down.
Impel Down, the perilous prison located in the Calm Belt of the Grand Line, plays a significant role in this theory. Divided into six levels, it housed some of the world’s most dangerous criminals, including Portgas D. Ace, before his dramatic rescue by Monkey D. Luffy.
Each level of Impel Down
Each level of Impel Down presents unique challenges and horrors, from razor-sharp trees in the Crimson Hell of Level 1 to the Wild Beast Hell of Level 2, teeming with dangerous creatures like basilisks and sphinxes.
The Starvation Hell of Level 3, where water and food were scarce, and the Blazing Hell of Level 4, with its raging inferno, further showcased the prison’s brutality.
Fans have drawn intriguing parallels between the Gorosei and these levels. For instance, Saint Saturn, possibly the weakest of the Gorosei, could derive his powers from Level 1, associated with the Crimson Hell, known for its lesser sacrifices and dangers. Saint Marcus, with his devil form inspired by Itsumade, aligns with Level 2, abundant with beastly terrors.
The theories extend further, correlating Saint Ju Peter with the scarcity and desolation of Level 3 (Starvation Hell) and Saint Warcury, whose powers remain mysterious but possibly linked to extreme heat akin to Blazing Hell in Level 4.
Level 5, known as Freezing Hell, could connect to Saint Nusjuro’s powers, drawing from the icy torment of that level. Meanwhile, Level 6, Eternal Hell, shrouded in mystery and containing the most dangerous criminals, ties in intriguingly with the ruler of the World Government, Imu.
Imu’s true nature and association with the most extreme sacrifices suggest a level of power commensurate with the ruler of the world. The convergence of these elements paints a vivid picture of the intricate world-building and mythology within One Piece, grabbing fans with its depth and complexity.
As the story unfolds and Vegapunk’s revelations continue to rock the foundations of this expansive universe, fans eagerly await the next chapter to uncover more about the truth behind the Gorosei and their ominous connection to the levels of Impel Down.
