These details show just how much control they have over the world, making it clear that they are extremely powerful and influential.
Imu’s Command and Vegapunk’s Weapon
Imu, the mysterious leader, gives a terrifying order to use Vegapunk’s weapon called “Mother Flame” to destroy the Lulusia Kingdom. This shows how dangerous and powerful the World Government can be when dealing with those who oppose them. We also learn that Imu is very interested in capturing Vivi, which hints at her important role in the future.
Sabo’s Courage and Escape
Even though he’s hurt, Sabo doesn’t give up. He’s determined to share King Cobra’s message with everyone. By disguising himself as a guard, he manages to escape, showing how serious his mission is and how much danger he’s willing to face.
Vivi and Wapol’s Great Escape
Vivi and Wapol managed to escape from the main city of the World Government, Mary Geoise. The two snuck onto the ship headed for the Eigis Kingdom, escaping capture. Wapol went further to make a deal with Morgans, showing more angst in their story.
Themes and World-Building
This episode is full of themes about revolution, hidden power, and information control by the government. Ivankov’s idea that Imu might be immortal makes the plot even more mysterious. We can clearly see here how far the World Government goes in keeping its secrets and thus how far it is ready to go in order to stay in power.

But one of the most astonishing times is when we come across Saint Figarland Garling.
He is responsible for carrying out the execution of Mjosgard and has the title of Supreme Commander of the Holy Knights. That he had been a former champion of God Valley speaks not only to his power but also his experience in the field of battles. His brutal actions against Mjosgard, who had allied support with the Fish-men, speak volumes about just how cold-hearted and ruthless the World Government can be. A reason this could be a foreshadowing moment of the Figarland family’s further influence in the world of One Piece, making things even more thrilling.
Final remarks
Episode 1120 is really an excellent addition to the One Piece series; it just adds drama, political intrigue, and action when Saint Figarland Garling was introduced and exposed about the Five Elders. The story is getting even more heated, and the tension between the World Government and the Revolutionary Army is really piling up. This is one episode no true fan should miss!
