You can update right to iOS 27 without first installing iOS 26.7. iOS 26.7 is for people who are not ready to move to iOS 27 yet. iOS 26.7 installs a plethora of security fixes that are also fixed in iOS 27.
Your choice, If you want iOS 27 go right ahead and install it.

You can update directly no matter even if you are on iOS 18 or below. It will show the nearest update. Don’t get trapped, scroll down and see an option “Also Available: Upgrade to iOS 27”.
