The latest One Piece chapter, 1098, is really dark. It reveals more about the Celestial Dragons and their horrible actions, making it one of Eiichiro Oda’s most horrifying chapters.
The flashback mainly focuses on the lives of slaves, showcasing the depravity of these monsters in a more detailed way than ever before. Also, Kuma’s past gets darker with Ginny’s death. This makes One Piece much darker than fans thought it would be.
Unveiling the Tragic and Horrifying Life of Ginny in One Piece Chapter 1098
One Piece chapter 1098 is all about Ginny, Kuma, and Bonney. In the first half, Ginny takes the spotlight, and her story gets really dark. This chapter is probably the darkest Oda has ever drawn.
In the previous chapter, Ginny got kidnapped. Now, in chapter 1098, we find out she’s officially a slave again. It’s heartbreaking because she was a slave before, and now she’s back in that horrible situation.
Ginny went through a lot of suffering from the Celestial Dragons when she was 9 to 13 years old. She thought she was finally free and started living happily, eating and sleeping peacefully, and sharing love with others.
But that happiness didn’t last. Ginny became a slave again, and what’s even worse, she was forced to marry a Celestial Dragon. He made Ginny marry him and subjected her to abuse for two years.
Ginny’s Death Takes One Piece Into a Darker Narrative Turn Beyond Fan Expectations
Ginny suffered a lot in two years, as shown in One Piece chapter 1098. She endured physical and sexual abuse from her Celestial Dragon spouse and later got a deadly disease. Though the disease is unspecified, it led to her release, leaving her to die.
She wasn’t a slave anymore, but only because the Celestial Dragons had no more use for her. Expelled from Marijoa, she contacted Kuma one last time before dying.
It’s heartbreaking that Ginny, throughout her ordeal, was only thinking of Kuma, wanting to say goodbye. Kuma found her too late, and she had already suffered too much. Her life, freedom, and goals were crushed by the Celestial Dragons. Forced to bear a child by her Celestial Dragon spouse, that child turned out to be Bonney.
Ginny died in front of Kuma, who decided to raise Bonney as his own daughter. The story then focuses on Bonney, and more tragedies unfold for her and Kuma. One Piece chapter 1098 delves into dark themes, revealing the true evil of the Celestial Dragons.
However, this chapter only scratches the surface of the Celestial Dragons’ cruelty. They are human-shaped monsters that Dragon, the Revolutionary Army, and Luffy must utterly destroy. The fate of characters like Kuma remains uncertain, raising questions about how many lives can be saved.
