Fans have been wondering about Elbaf ever since the giants Dorry and Brogy mentioned it in Little Garden. Based on how tightly Usopp clings to the idea of the island, fans anticipate that visiting it will be an important part of his character development.

This wouldn’t be so bad if the current stakes of the Egghead siege weren’t too high. In the previous chapter, Luffy and the Straw Hats surpassed every other pirate in history by forcing the Navy to deploy the largest fleet in history, with 30,000 Marines ready to attack Egghead. If that wasn’t enough, one of the Gorosei, Jay Garcia Saturn, made the move personally, again for the first time in the series.
