Based on this, it doesn't look like chapter 1000 is going to be anything special.
It's good that the Ace flashback didn't last more than a few panels.
I'd like to see Tama's reaction when she learned that Luffy and Ace were brothers. She was pretty mad at Luffy for saying Ace was dead.
So Big Mom is planning on using Robin to read the poneglyphs, Inu warned her about people going after her.
I hope there will more action in the next chapter and who knows maybe even more pages.
