Charlotte Katakuri’s battle with Monkey D. Luffy was one of the finest in One Piece, and we can only affirm that Luffy won, leaving Katakuri gravely injured and presumably dead. Nonetheless, Charlotte Brûlée came to his assistance and treated his wounds, which is why he was able to wake up and be shown alive in subsequent chapters of the manga.

The rest of this article will go into Charlotte Katakuri’s fate after his epic battle with Monkey D. Luffy.

However, be cautious since the post will include a lot of spoilers, so if you don’t know all the specifics, proceed with caution.

Is Charlotte Katakuri dead and what happened to him in One Piece?

Charlotte Katakuri is Big Mom’s second kid and one of the three Sweets Generals; a reward of 1,057,000,000 Berries hanging over her head. Brûlée claims that he has never been vanquished and has never even been knocked down. Cold and isolated, he exhibits a very calm and polished demeanor in public, but in private he exposes himself as greedy without any constraint as much as Big Mom; despite this, he has a strong sense of devotion and honor for opponents he considers worthy of praise.

He was a formidable opponent in the pirate world until his confrontation with Luffy, which lost him his reputation and maybe his life. In this post, we will give you a summary of the combat, the outcome of which will determine Katakuri’s destiny, i.e., whether he is still alive or dead in One Piece.

After their initial short clash, Katakuri is prepared to have his daily snack in a shrine constructed of mochi, but Luffy surprises him as he gorges himself, and the two continue fighting. Katakuri loses focus and is unable to foresee the moves of his opponent, who strikes him with many attacks in Gear Fourth.

After calming himself, Katakuri begins utilizing Observation Haki, which allows him to avoid the opponent’s attacks. Then utilize his talents to make Armament Haki-coated arms to attack Luffy hard. When his opponent attempts to flee, Katakuri pursues him, but Straw Hat unintentionally discovers Brûlée, which he uses to go through a mirror and out of that reality.

Katakuri is therefore left to wait for developments, receiving transmissions that disclose pirate sightings in different towns around the archipelago. He subsequently watches Luffy return to the mirror world and restarts the combat, blocking him from striking with the Observation Haki and repeatedly knocking the opponent to the ground. However, he suspects that his opponent is attempting to take advantage of his ability to anticipate the future.

He subsequently admits that the Big Mom Pirates are aware of his crew’s intention to rejoin in Cacao, where several of his brothers are presently residing. The duel continues, but Katakuri understands that if he keeps going at his current pace, the opponent will master the Observation Haki just as well as he has. He stabs him with his trident as punishment. However, he notices that Luffy is no longer battling like he used to, but he refuses to tell why since he was going to accept the honor.

He witnesses his sister Flambé trying to attack him with a needle launched from his blowgun after striking him multiple times. He approaches her for this, and his sister rushes to meet him, thinking he wants to thank her, but Katakuri pierces her with his trident and, after displaying her his mouth, scolds her for interfering in his combat, claiming she has harmed his dignity as a warrior.

Flambé then rebukes him by instructing his servants to snap photographs of Katakuri in order to exhibit the look of Katakuri to all the people of Toto Land. However, Katakuri and Luffy use the Conqueror’s Haki to knock everyone out. The conflict continues unabated, with frequent strikes being exchanged. Katakuri seems to have the upper hand, yet each time he knocks his opponent to the ground, he gets back up.

Straw Hat employs a Gear Fourth version, the Snakeman, after the two warriors are exhausted. Katakuri is troubled by the quickness of the latter’s blows, as he gets struck many times. At that moment, the general smashes him by drastically expanding his arm, forming gigantic needles coated with the Armament Haki with which he crushes the opponent to the ground for the first time, then spins him in the air, only to knock him to the ground again.

Luffy, on the other hand, manages to rise up, and the two collide, causing a huge impact force. Following another exchange of punches, Katakuri slams the opponent to the ground with such power that a crater in the floor is created, knocking him unconscious. The sweets general, on the other hand, falls to the ground.

Ten minutes later, Luffy is back on his feet, but Katakuri also stands up. The latter so asks the adversary whether he plans to return to Toto Land one day to fight Big Mom; once Straw Hat affirms it, underlining his goal to become pirate king, Katakuri falls backward, unconscious.

Brûlée joins Katakuri and starts medicating him when he wakes. He asks whether he landed on his back on purpose, but the pirate is unable to respond. Thus, his sister explains to him that she is aware that the image of the ideal guy he built was established just for the purpose of protecting all members of his family. She then claims that Luffy has escaped from Toto Land, which she believes is what would have made him happy. She goes on to explain that she will never forgive him.

To establish that Kaktakuri survived his battle with Luffy, we can only state that he was briefly seen during the Wano Country Arc, when he and Oven assaulted the Vinsmokes who came to release Niji and Yonji from the laboratory on Whole Cake Island. They were unsuccessful, however, since Caesar Clown launched a special gas, causing Katakuri and Oven to hallucinate and attack one other. In One Piece Film: Red, he is also seen briefly attending Uta’s performance.
