Manga readers are waiting to read One Piece Chapter 1195 as Zoro is about to get his moment to shine. In the recent installment, we saw how he initially struggled with using Haki on his own terms. So the battle with Sommers is dicey, although one major mistake made by Sommers was to underestimate Zoro. Eiichiro Oda has taken a step back from the main battle to now focus on these other fights happening in Elbaph, and even they are as intense as the battle against Imu as Straw Hat crew members get their moment.

Recap for Chapter 1194

This week’s chapter was mostly focused on the battle between Zoro and Sommers. While this villain kept on regenerating, as Sommers has the ability to heal almost any attack, Zoro started to treat this fight as a training ground to gain control over Haki. He was not really struggling in this fight against a Holy Knight; it was most like an opportunity for this Straw Hat member to refine his technique.

It was also revealed that the essence of Conqueror’s Haki is how an individual has a strong sense of self. This gives readers more context on how and why Zoro is given such character development and how those with powerful will manifest Haki in different ways. In this chapter, Zoro put on his bandana, and by the end of it, he seems to have better control over Haki.

What to expect from One Piece Chapter 1195? (Speculative)

Looking at the ending of the recent chapter, here is what fans could expect from One Piece Chapter 1195:

• Zoro could finally defeat Saint Sommers: The most obvious possibility is that One Piece Chapter 1195continues directly from Zoro’s breakthrough. Fans have already pointed out that Zoro’s previous attacks were not necessarily enough to overcome Sommers’ unusual defenses. One Piece Chapter 1195 could therefore show what happens when Zoro uses his newly refined ability deliberately.

• Sanji’s Conqueror’s Haki could become the next major focus: One of the biggest fan theories followingOne Piece Chapter 1195concerns Sanji. Mihawk’s explanation about the connection between Conqueror’s Haki and one’s sense of self could be particularly important for Sanji because his story has repeatedly revolved around identity and accepting who he truly is.

• Zoro and Sanji could eventually join the Imu battle: Another popular theory is that Zoro and Sanji will finish their respective God Knight battles and later return to the main conflict involving Imu, Luffy, and Loki. The theory fits the recurring idea of Zoro and Sanji serving as the “wings” of the future Pirate King.

In the end, Zoro’s newfound control over Advanced Conqueror’s Haki is likely to remain the central focus in the upcoming installment. His fight with Sommers could finally reach its conclusion, while the story may begin shifting toward Sanji and his own potential power-up.
