IMU's forces and immortality of the elders and holy knights
A bit Elbaf Arc has revealed fans for a lot of exciting stories, most importantly some amazing forces as well, such as immortality in the holy knights.

A bit: Why Garling Figarland is not immortal, explained
All five older and sacred knights are immortal, except Garling Figarland. Here's why.
As I said, there are also things that ODA has already introduced in A bit It will have significance here again, and with the power of immortality at hand, such an ability will definitely be of much importance.

IMU can give immortality to anyone

The holy knights and the elders are immortal
Fans already know that the holy knights are the most important villains in the Elbaf arch in one piece and that their goals are total submission of the country. This means that the straw hat pirates will not be able to escape from the island this time, as they did with Egghead. A complete battle will be fought here, and there can only be one winner. Of course, the straw hats cannot lose, which simply means that the holy knights must be counteracted in one way or another. This means that ODA will also place a lot of emphasis on the immortality of the holy knights and the five elders.
It is worthless to fight them. They are immortal! – Luffy to Giants
The key to beating immortality has not been revealed yet, at least not completely. The only one that fans saw with the ability to counteract immortality is Emet, who had Joy Boy's Haki. There is a clear indication of the fact that Haki can counteract immortality, especially if it is to a large extent. However, there is more to beat immortality than just Haki, and the answer lies in a special devil fruit that fans have seen before, Soru Soru No Mi.
Why Soru Soru No Mi is the perfect counter to IMU's immortality
Soul damage can be the key to beating immortality
A bit Chapter 1147 gave the fans a completely massive clue about the weakness of the holy knights that do not consist of Haki. Of course, high -level conquerors should be able to beat immortality, but not all straw hats have it. In fact, those who have it are not even involved in the battle. As such, it is obvious that another way to harm the holy knights exists and which lies in soul damage. This is also perfect, given that IMU is the source of immortality and in Egghead his soul felt pain when Joy Boy's Haki was released.
She is a woman who can manipulate souls. – King Baum

May 11 will be a sad day for a piece of fans
May 11 will be an unfortunate day for all fans of ODA's work, one piece.
Comes back to A bit Chapter 1147's bug tips, fans also know that when Gunko hit Brook, she felt pain in her heart, which again means that she feels soul damage even if physical attacks do nothing.
In view of all things, it is obvious that the greatest natural weakness of the immortality of the five elders and the Holy Knights is Soru Soru No Mi, Big Mom's Devil Fruit.
Big mom can beat all holy knights
Great mother can directly influence the souls of different individuals in A bitAnd that's what makes her really dangerous. She can give or take souls and even take up souls herself. Big mother should also be able to deal with soul damage and through it, beat enemies like the holy knights and the elderly. This can also be another step at Big VAT's return to the story, and fans absolutely cannot wait to see it.
A piece of chapter 1148 will soon be out, in a week. As usual, a piece will sink on Sunday. In Japan, a piece of 12 o'clock on JST on Monday. However, the vast majority of international readers will see the chapter available on May 11. The official release date for a paragraph chapter 1148 is May 11, 2025. Fans can read the chapter for free at Manga Plus.
