One Piece Episode 1072 spoilers

Here’s a teaser for One Piece Episode 1072

The conflict between Kaido and Luffy will continue in the following episode. Kaido notes Luffy’s success in reawakening his devil fruit. But rather than a Paramecia, his change denotes the emergence of a Zoan-style devil fruit. However, Luffy is too animated to engage Kaido in a meaningful discourse.

He soon launches an attack and outmuscles Kaido. Before fleeing, Luffy turns Kaido’s body into rubber and lets him devour him. Luffy will also appear in a huge size and use Kaido as a jump rope in One Piece Episode 1072. Kaido employs his Blast Breath, greatly infuriating Luffy.

The Emperor remark that Luffy’s behaviour is straight out of a comic book. Luffy rapidly hits his limit and turns terribly pale. He appears to be an old guy with wrinkles, even if just for a little period of time. But Luffy reverts to Gear 5 by synchronising his heartbeat with the beat of the Drums of Liberation.
