Epic Animation Brings Garp vs. Kuzan to Life in One Piece: Watch Now

One Piece has reached a new phase of the Egghead Arc, showcasing an intense battle between Garp and Kuzan. One Piece: Egghead Arc has temporarily shifted its focus away from the Straw Hats, now struggling on Dr. Vegapunk’s future island laboratory, and instead brings updates from the rest of the open seas. Koby, previously captured by Blackbeard and held captive on Beehive, is the center of Garp’s full rescue attempt.

The recent episodes of One Piece have highlighted Koby’s connections to the Navy, with Monkey D. Garp unleashing the full extent of his abilities to combat the pirates. The narrative took a significant turn when Garp faced off against Kuzan, a former Navy Admiral turned pirate. The latest episode of the anime displayed their intense battle, showcasing both characters’ strengths against each other. Crunchyroll provided a first look at this showdown.

In One Piece Episode 1115, Kuzan introduces himself to Garp as a member of Blackbeard’s crew. A flashback reveals that following his defeat by Akainu, Kuzan was directionless after quitting the Navy. A meeting with Blackbeard, who attempted to seize Kuzan’s power, led to an invitation to join Blackbeard’s crew. This pivotal moment explains Kuzan’s current stance with Blackbeard’s men.

In the present day, Kuzan confronts Garp, utilizing the full extent of his icy abilities. However, Garp, empowered by his Haki, proves to be a formidable opponent. Despite Kuzan’s strength, Garp powers through each of his attacks with ease. The battle is swift, ending with Garp’s clear victory over Kuzan, emphasizing his superior combat skills.

Although Kuzan is a former student of Garp, Garp’s primary focus remains the rescue mission for Koby. He initially tries to persuade Kuzan to rejoin the Navy but stands firm in his mission. This battle is likely not the last time viewers will witness Garp’s powerful combat skills in action.
