Here is everything you need to know about the One Piece Chapter 1183 release date and time, plus a breakdown of what to expect next regarding Zaza, Luffy, and the overarching lore of the series.
📅 One Piece Chapter 1183 Release Date and Time
If you were eagerly waiting to see Rain God Zaza’s destructive power in action this week, you will have to hold off just a little longer. The One Piece manga is currently on a one-week break.
Notably, this marks Eiichiro Oda’s 200th break throughout his legendary career! While many of his recent pauses during the Final Saga have been due to declining health, this specific break isn't for medical reasons. Instead, Oda is taking the time to meticulously polish the story, ensuring audiences get the best possible experience for Elbaph’s climax.
One Piece Chapter 1183 will officially release on Sunday, May 24, 2026, at 11:00 AM EST.
Fans can catch all the action including where Zoro and Sanji stand against the World Government's elite God's Knights for free on Viz Media, Manga Plus, and the Shonen Jump app.
🌧️ The Arrival of Rain God Zaza: A New Threat in Elbaph
Chapter 1182 threw a massive curveball into the battlefield with the introduction of a terrifying new deity: Rain God Zaza. Mentioned all the way back during the Skypiea arc alongside the Sun God, the Forest God, and the Earth God, holding such a divine status proves she is easily on par with Nika.
Taking this towering figure down won't be an easy feat for the Straw Hats. Here is what makes Zaza so dangerous:
A Tangible Threat: Killingham previously summoned an MMA (Manifested Mythological Avatar) of Nika through an Elbaph child's nightmare, but it was merely a silhouette that couldn't truly utilize the Sun God's abilities. Zaza’s design, on the other hand, is fully detailed and physically tangible.
Catastrophic Power: The moment she arrived, this Rain God MMA used her god-like power to instantly cause a massive, devastating flood across Elbaph.
The Nightmare Factor: It appears that when Killingham summons an MMA born directly from his own deepest fears and nightmares, it results in a far more powerful and dangerous monster than anything pulled from the minds of others.
☀️ Luffy vs. Imu: Unlocking Nika's True Elemental Power
Luffy is officially done watching from the sidelines and is now preparing to join Loki to take on Imu. Recognizing just how dangerous this hidden ruler of the world really is, the Straw Hat captain isn't just going to charge in blindly like he usually does.
Bypassing Immortality
Thanks to a massive revelation from Scopper Gaban, we know that the only way to bypass Imu's immortality is by overwhelming the target's body with immense Conqueror's Haki. To stand a chance in this battle, readers may soon witness a brand-new fighting style from Luffy, where the Emperor synchronizes his Gear 5 reality-bending powers with heavy bursts of advanced Conqueror's Haki.
Tapping into the Eternal Flame
Even with this advanced strategy, Luffy still needs a major new power-up to truly match the overwhelming strength of the King of the World. While Gear 5 currently gives him the freedom to turn his imagination into reality, Luffy remains largely unaware of the true limits of a "Sun God's" power.
After watching the newly introduced Rain God Zaza instantly call down a massive flood, it's abundantly clear that Luffy’s Devil Fruit must have a similar, opposing elemental ability tied directly to the "Sun." This concept completely backs up the huge lore drop Dr. Vegapunk provided on Egghead Island regarding a secret power source that fueled the highly advanced Ancient Kingdom an eternal flame that the World Government spent hundreds of years desperately trying to mimic.
Because the Iron Giant, Emet, only turned back on when it heard the beat of the Drums of Liberation, the ultimate power of Sun God Nika is proven to be much more than just cartoon rubber physics. The true ability of the Sun God may actually involve generating endless, life-giving energy. If Luffy can freely tap into this ancient power, he won't just stand a chance against Imu; he will effectively wield the limitless energy that once powered an entire nation.
