One Piece Chapter 1125, however, has something more shocking to offer. Titled ‘How to define Death’, the chapter picks up on the island where Saturn is left behind by his fellowGoroseimembers.

Following this, black flames begin to emit from Saturn’s body, aging him rapidly until only his skeleton is left. He begs mercy from Imu but gets nothing but a painful death. Now that there’s a new fifth member, Imu and theWorld Governmentdon’t need him anymore.

This is a shocking and bleak turn of events, especially since One Piece rarelykills its characters, let alone in such a gruesome way. But the death of a Gorosei indicates that things are going to be much darker than we’re accustomed to from the manga.

Fans are also surprised by Saturn’s death in One Piece Chapter 1125, but everyone agrees that he’s had it coming. One X userposted, “REST IN HELL, JAYGARCIA SATURN.”
