⚠️ #ONEPIECE1188 DETAILED SPOILERS ⚠️
Imu stabs Luffy with the NIHIL SWORD / SWORD OF NIHILITY / SWORD OF NOTHINGNESS
----------------------------------
*The Straw Hats sees Luffy fighting Imu*
Nami: Huh?! Luffy?! He's fighting that guy from before!
Usopp: Is he gonna be alright?! Seriously, who the heck is that guy?!
*Brook ponders about the World Government for a bit in front of the ice that was encasing Gunko*
Franky: Hey, Brook! We can pull her out now!!!
Brook: Ah... Princess Shuri!! What should we do?! What do you do for someone who's been frozen?!
Usopp: Let's see... When Robin and Luffy got frozen...
Brook: They've been frozen before?!
(😂😂😂)
*Imu sees the commotion*
Imu: Gunko... So that "ice" wasn't destroyed...
Luffy: Gomu Gomu no...!
Imu: He called Gunko "Princess Shuri"... That man with the afro... Don't tell me...
Luffy: "You're Wide Open"* Bullet!!!
*Gear 5 Genie Luffy punches Imu with a fist coated in Armament and Conqueror's Haki, but Imu easily blocks it with one hand. The attack Luffy uses in Japanese is called "SUKIARI BULLET." The term "sukiari!" is used when you spot an opening or when your opponent lets their guard down, making it the perfect moment for a surprise attack. In this case, Luffy named this attack accordingly because Imu was somewhat lost in thought. LOL*
Imu: Weren't thou watching... to what happened to the massive Loki...?
*Luffy's beard in his genie form is burning, LOL. Imu prepares another "Omen" attack.*
Imu: STIGMA
*Luffy dodges out of the way.*
Luffy: Woah!
*Imu fires another barrage of Omen firebombs at Luffy, and they home in on him. Luffy runs away in classic Gear 5 fashion, LOL. Imu then twirls his glaive, transforming it back into an Omen flame. He pulls a sword engulfed in black flames from the Black Flame Ring (hagoromo) with eyes behind his back.*
Imu: "NIHIL SWORD" (or SWORD OF NOTHINGNESS)
(The kanji "虚無剣" is read as "kyomuken")
*Imu's Nihil Sword causes everything around it to wither. The surrounding trees begin to decay, their leaves falling as the blade's presence drains the life from them.*
*Imu prepares to strike.*
Luffy: Hm?! The forest... it's withering!
Imu: The view is magnificent!!!
*Imu stabs Luffy with the sword*
Imu: I understand... that you're not Joyboy... Even I know that much...
Luffy: WAAAHHH!!!
Imu: Because Joyboy... would never be this weak!!
End Note: The "King of the World"... Strong... Majestic...!!

Zoro refers to Sanji as "douryou" 同僚 and not the usual "nakama".
He's just repeating what Sommers said (Sommers called Killingham 同僚 too), but it's interesting since the term doesn't just mean "colleague", it also carries a sense of "equal role or status".
