Future Events The Final Saga

[kekaro]

Yeah they do combine PH arc and DR arc into DR saga in the wiki. You can see the connection though. I personally think that the Final Saga/Stretch is as some members have previously stated like the Yonko saga which started in FMI. We got introduced to BM, setting up the conflict followed by Kaido in PH and this culminated in Wano where both got defeated. So a total of around 450 chapters for the Yonko saga. But the rate at which the story is progressing with Imu joining the battlefield (even through proxy) it means the end is nearer than our previous estimates.
I think there are three arcs left after Elbaf at most. We already got two of the most anticipated things out of the way from early OP times, VegaPunk and Elbaf. Now we have meeting with Shanks and Dragon left. The islands remaining are MG (not exactly the island), LT and Lodestar (if required) from main points. On villains side we have Imu, BB and Akainu (not a big fan of Admirals as main arc villains theory though).

Eh i see the point but like my first stated, oda has quite the go and he wants the "most hypest" shounen final arc since he dreamed off as a child, i think this is gonna be substionally longer than any recorded fighting shounen before which alone would make it in a 250+ chapter length at minimum if we would start the final arc right now
Enemy are non issue imo even with imu proxy there depending if luffy loses here, oda litterarly spawned 2 extra shanks in less than 100 chapters

LOL at 2 extra Shanks.
I would love a battle royal type of final war stretching over 100s of chapters with even the crew probably split up, a final war befitting the length of OP and the world building Oda has done. All Yonkos with their own agendas (Shanks and Luffy maybe aligned), WG, RA, Marines. But I hope it doesnt get dragged out unnecessarily and end up becoming a burden.

200-250 chapter at least till the end.

Oda needs about 100 chapters just for Shanks, BB, Dragon, VC/Imu (and whoever else) flashback and for SHs dreams / epilogue.

I think you underestimate Oda ability to rush thru plotholes and unresolved character arcs

Shanks and BB conflict already sprinkled here and there in the story. He only needs 3-4 ch worth of material to reveal the beef between them and then it ends either with BB murdering Shanks or Shanks sacrificing himself for new gen like the martyr he acts to be

SH dreams/epilogue shouldnt take more than 4-5 ch. There’s not much meat left to milk there. We dont need a wholeass ch dedicated to each SH, half a ch is the standard for side characters in shonen epilogues

Dragon might be longer bc not a lot of stuff on him. We know he was in Navy. We saw him in skme flashbacks but no real fights. Maybe 7-10 ch at most

Imu and Joyboy and end of world will be focus of final war so easily 60-70 ch overall. BB and Rocks role will be intertwined in there somewhere

Rest is running around, scattered battles, some dialogue and comedy, and massive unnecessary exposition on new character # 91757056

It will feel rushed no matter what. Or Oda will give editors a deadline like he will wrap up everything in 20 chapters while in the middle of final war. That how these logistics tend to go out

 

[BoaHancocksHusband]

In my opinion 500 to 700

thats too much

 

[MonsterKaido]

Which means the arc that most people here said would be a filler arc with alot of stuff still off screened (like bb law and major parts of garp vs hachinosu) was almost half as long as wano, one piece longest arc
Meanwhile im reading "less than 200 chapters"
Either math weaknness or some people believe one piece will be concluded in less than 3 eggheads from now on for real

I will bet it won't be anything less than 350 chapters imo. Too many things to wrap up.

Tried to tell them this and they never listened lol

 

[Welkin]

200-250 chapters left is my guess

Elbaf will likely be wrapped and done within 25-30 (maybe less depending on how the Imu debacle goes)

We’ll likely get 1-2 arcs (Cross Guild, race for the One Piece, Laugh Tale) before the actual Final War

The Final War itself in typical shonen fashion will probably be absurdly long. I think it’ll be 100+ chapters on its own to wrap everything up

 

[Kōri no kokyū]

In my opinion 500 to 700

That's like entire Pre time skip + Fishmen Island.

 

[ShinichiMugi]

Very good observation.
Final island arc, MarieJois arc (Imu needs help), Shanks vs Blackbeard (Crippled man needs help at laugh tale), The Finale (Final battle, aftermath, the dawn of new world). So about 300 chapters at least.

What should they do at Marejois if the Final Battle for you its a different arc?
I dont know if the Final Battle will be held in Marejois,but,if the Strawhats would go there,it would be only for that reason

 

[NotTommy]

I used to think it would finish on the 30th anniversary in 2027, but probably won't even be done in 2030. I think the final war will be the longest arc (Oda can't help himself, even if there won't be civillians on an island, it's a multi-faction clash with tons of characters, fights and reveals). Egghead was one of the longest arcs somehow (+60 chapters), Elbaph won't end for a bit, won't be shocked if we have a few arcs (maybe just like 2) between Elbaph and the final war. I'm expecting like 300 chapters to go but maybe less.

detective conan will endingg before
ippo will end before

 

[NotTommy]

ippo will end before

You sure? Morikawa ain't afraid to take breaks too, but I do think if certain things fall into place Ippo could be on its last stretch and wrap up before OP.

 

[Cherry Hilk]

250 to 300 chapters left. For those who think it’s too much, I’m going just to say that this is the mere lenght of Zou + WCI + Wano

 

[Nineking99]

I dont know if the Final Battle will be held in Marejois,but,if the Strawhats would go there,it would be only for that reason

I imagine it will be the same like any other arc like the histories, secrets, inhabitants, and enemies. I don't know where the Final Battle will be, but I think it will be something shown in the mural where they all sail to a place created by the final villain. It's a new place than what we already know or maybe the Ancient Kingdom.
