What to Expect from One Piece Episode 1129?

The previous episode ended with Bonney attacking the Elder unexpectedly. The upcoming episode will focus on their conflict first and learn more about Saturn’s powers in One Piece. As the episode title suggests, the episode will move on to showcase the complete backstory of Bartholomew Kuma and Bonney. As a manga reader, I can only say this is going to be the most tragic backstory we have witnessed in One Piece
