One Piece Episode 1098 English Sub
While Dr. Vegapunk reveals more about the ancient robot to Luffy’s group, explaining how it relates to why he wants them to take him away from Egghead. CP0 arrive at Egghead and, after being denied entry, prepare to invade. Meanwhile, Kuma escapes from the revolutionary army.
Long summary
Luffy’s group continues to question Vegapunk about the Iron Giant. According to legend, the robot climbed the red line and attacked the Mary Geois, but ran out of power and stopped working before it could do any damage. The inactive robot has been kept in a junkyard ever since, though the world government doesn’t know it’s there and tries to destroy it. Shaka, listening in on their conversation, adds that he based Vegaforce-01 on the Iron Giant, but was unable to replicate its power source, which remains unknown.
In the distance, a world government ship with CP0 agents is approaching Egghead. The ship’s commander, assassin Rob Lucci, demands entry to the ports, and when denied, orders his subordinates to fire the cannons on the Sea Beast Weapon guarding the ship. In response, Shaka prepares to fend off the assassins and deny them entry to Egghead. Lucci and Kaku attempt to convince Pythagoras to allow them to enter Egghead, but after Pythagoras repeatedly denies them, they resort to violence and attempt to force their way in.
Vegapunk then bemoans Bonney’s situation, but asks Luffy to take him away from Egghead. He also expresses his ambitions to make energy infinite and free worldwide and to stop international wars over limited energy resources. He discovers that the key to infinite energy is the ancient energy that powered the Iron Giant. However, since the robot was connected to the Void Century, Vegapunk’s studies made him an enemy of the World Government, who sent CP0 to assassinate him. Just as he speaks, an explosion from the forced invasion can be seen in the distance.
Meanwhile, Kuma, still under the control of the Marines, suddenly goes insane while undergoing repairs in the Kingdom of Kamabakka. Lindbergh, who was making repairs, tries to stop him, but Kuma breaks away from his pipes and machines. Despite being disabled and unable to function smoothly, he disappears from the island with his Devil Fruit ability and escapes Dragon and Ivankov’s pursuit.
