The production team behind One Piece has released the first footage from Episode 1,168, promising to delve deeper into the series' rich lore. Titled “Ancient History! The Harley Passed Down From Generation to Generation in Elbaf!”, the episode is scheduled to premiere next Sunday.
Void Century Revelations in One Piece
In the new stills, the highlight is Franky, who stumbles upon ancient inscriptions and paintings on the walls of the giants' island. These records date back to the mysterious Void Century and are expected to touch upon the narrative of three distinct worlds, as well as bring new details about the legendary figure of Nika, the Sun God.
The official stream will take place on Crunchyroll on June 28, starting at 1:00 PM (BRT), offering original audio with Portuguese subtitles. For Netflix subscribers, the content is expected to become available the following weekend, maintaining the current release window.
This episode also marks an important moment for the weekly broadcast, being the last one before a brief break in the main storyline. On the following Sunday, the anime will give way to the spin-off special One Piece: Heroines, later returning with its seasonal release format adopted by Toei Animation.
