Big Mom was definitely very lucky, because Loki, Prince of Elbaf, fell in love with Lola. A marriage was soon announced, but Lola wanted to marry someone of her choosing and not under her mother's control. This is why she left Totland and sought her own husband. Lola then stubbornly pursues certain men, such as Absalom, which is an exciting addition to the story.

Either way, for Big Mom, it was devastating. His alliance with the giants fell apart, and even though he tried to push Chiffon as Lola's replacement, things didn't work out for him. Big Mom and the Giants have seen an even more sour relationship since then, and at the same time, as far as Loki was concerned, fans never heard from him again, until the Elbaf arc.

In One Piece chapter 1130, Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates set foot on the real Elbaf for the first time. After leaving Block City, Luffy and his Eastern Blue recruits, along with Chopper, find Elbaf's base and decide to go up. However, Luffy immediately sensed the presence of a strong person nearby.

Luffy can help free Loki in One Piece 1131

Fans got a lot of exciting information about Loki in Episode 1130. It was revealed by the giants that Loki was called the Cursed Prince and the Shame of Elbaf. This may come as a surprise to some fans, as many expected him to be on the good side, but it makes sense. Loki is inspired by a god of deceit and evil, after all. As for Loki of One Piece, fans know that he was born evil and committed all kinds of heinous acts. Eventually, his actions piled up so much that he was sentenced to crucifixion a few years ago. It is not clear what action led to his crucifixion order, but it is most likely that it happened after Loki set his sights on Elbaf's legendary Devil Fruit and plotted the assassination of King Harald. Loki managed to kill him and he also successfully completed the task of consuming the Devil Fruit.

Interestingly, this Devil Fruit is known to be legendary in nature, but Oda has yet to reveal what powers it possesses. As far as Loki goes, he was opposed by all of Elbaf, and eventually suppressed.

He is now chained to a base in the mountainous region of Elbaf, and the people of Elbaf believe that when Loki is free again, he will destroy the entire world.

Who will free Loki?

The question arises as to how Loki will escape in the first place. While this is certainly an interesting question, the answer lies ahead of the fans. The person responsible for freeing Loki is going to be none other than Luffy. He had already seen her in the previous chapter, and even though he sensed her presence, he was quite surprised. Even after seeing Loki's nature firsthand, Luffy didn't seem wary or wary of him. He is very confident and smiles at Loki. He sees no reason not to free Loki, and it is very likely that he will be the one to remove his chains for him.

How can Loki be freed?

As for how Luffy does this, fans should note that Luffy is a user of Advanced Haki. He can channel Armament and Conqueror's Hawkeye into things and destroy them from the inside. If he manages to do so, the chains can potentially be destroyed, and Loki can be freed.

What happens when Loki is freed?

Loki will immediately unleash his powers

Eventually, one way or another, Loki is going to break free inside a piece. Elbaf's giants believe that the world will end when Loki is freed. However, things could be different as Loki doesn't seem to be set up as a major villain. It is possible that Loki will fight against Luffy at first. After all, Oda has certainly given him a very bad reputation. He has to live it up for fans to see why he's so feared in Elbaf. But Loki also seems wrong in a way. He considers himself the Sun God and at the same time claims that the Sun God will destroy the world.

One way or another, Loki will have to realize that he is not the Sun God and that Luffy is the person he believes himself to be. If this is indeed the case, Loki could very well cooperate with the real Sun God, who is Luffy. It should be remembered that the giants of Elbaf worship the Sun God after all, and Loki certainly wouldn't go against that. Besides, there will certainly be bigger enemies for everyone to face in Elbaf, and it may come in the form of a world government, especially Emu, the sovereign of the entire world. Along with the big fish fry, Loki must eventually side with the Straw Hat Pirates and search with them.
