Yeah, I still think it could be a shorter arc. I'm going with 21-35 chapters-ish.

Depending on what the Gods Knights are here to do, this could be a really sudden and brutal ending. Maybe with Luffy freeing Loki just to get some backup against these guys.

I could see it going longer, but part of me feels like Oda added the whole "Don't linger here too long" thing on purpose. I think he's ready to move on to other things, too.

Part of me is wondering if Oda's using the "Elbaph Silhouette" guy as a sort of "progress marker" for the arc? When we first saw this guy in Chapter 1124 he was on the left side of the page. And the next time we see him in Chapter 1132, he's around the 1/3rd mark on the right... more or less in the "center" of the page. I just wonder if Oda is using that to indicate that we're actually between a third and halfway through this arc already? So, it's possible that this guy will finally slowly make his way into the story sometime around Chapter 1140 or 1148 or so, just in time to essentially end the arc. But, I'll admit this is stretch. Still, I think this guy getting revealed will probably signal the end of the arc, more or less.. We started by teasing this guy, we'll probably end Elbaph by revealing who this guy is.

I will admit, I'm less sure than I was at the start of this arc. But, I'm still leaning towards this being a shorter arc.
There Isn't a single hint of this arc being short.

Never was tbh, the opposite, and especially not now.

I don't know where this compulsion of Erbaf being short came from when we are literally talking about one of the most ancient "promised" arcs.

What main point?
Oda barely presented the characters.

By the same standard DR should have eneded in 20.

Really, sometimes I don't know if It's wishful thinking or just being unable to accept the L, if this can even be called an L.
I was just doing a comparison with egghead since saturn "the main villain" appears at middle near end of the arc and it seems those guys seems to be the villains any plot that I think are loki and that other guy from the hat if frauda don't waste time and get to the point then yes

Saturn showed himself mid arc (even though we knew about him), but EH was a strange arc because there was a lot of "outside" the Island stuff.
If you count only EH (Island) chapters, Saturn was there quite early.

Also, we had plenty of villains who showed themselves early and still the arc was incredibly long: Doflamingo Is the first that comes to mind. CC and Hody too were there basically from the beginning and still their arc was a ~ 50 chapters arc.

More so, I think Loki Will clearly be a villian and he Isn't even free as of now.
Shanks 2.0. and the girl will have a role, but won't be defeated here imho.

Futhemore, I think we are going to see out of the Island chapters, with at least BBP vs RHP.

Also sure, if Oda was totally focused on not wasting any time maybe, but we know how he Is.

As I said in the post before "it seems " but in depends on frauda writting
About loki I can not really see him as a villain and the killing father thing most likely a misunderstunding
However is true he could do like egghead and we can see outside events
But frauda don't have the balls to kill his auto-self insert + Teach target is seems to be marijois

Remember the declaration he made at the Jump festa: we are going to "finally" see a fight between two characters for the OP.

And Is either BB vs Shanks or Luffy vs Shanks I would say.

Reminder that dessarosa happened in a day
And still Oda managed to make It several years and 100 chapters lol.

Jump festa 2024?
I think you mean this long spread from 1121

Characters who will/play a role in the final war
Yeah, jump festa 2024:




So, in 2024 there should have been a battle between two people about the OP, and a long waited one.

Obv. Oda took plenty of breaks for reasons and didn't happen (for now). Happened the same in Wano with the "Shanks' move" and was postoponed the year after when Wano actually happened. Oda has aleays been incapable of guessing timeframes.

However, the words are quite cleat and excluding BB vs Luffy because it's too soo, BB vs Shanks or Shanks vs Luffy are the only two that fits.

I still think it is going to be short compared to most post-ts arcs, but with the introduction of Danks and the mystery girl on Elbaph it will probably be longer than I originally expected.
 
#37
The only chance for a short arc will be raftel
I imagine they get there, celebrate and you see the treasure and a flashback and it will lead to the final war but other than that there will never be any arc less than 50 chapters at the least.
The blackbeard arc will be 80+ chapters
Final saga will be like 150 chapters
Oda's gonna do this until he's a grandpa.
 
#39
This will be another long arc
I have no idea how people expect this to end in a few chapters when egghead which would be your best bet for a short arc took so long
This is a 70 chapter arc minimum
I can definitely see that. Two God's Knight have appeared, though they could be this arc's CP0; York may have told the Five Elders that Vegapunk learned of the Void Century from Ohara's recovered books on Elbaph. There's the whole thing of Elbaph not having a king, Hajrudin being a second son and the favorite, while Loki might break out of his chains and he might even have been framed.

There is this silhouette guy whether it's Gaban or whoever
Some kid and Shanks stuff can happen
I think Loki was framed so there could be some big bad with his boys that gives us a few fights for this arc
We might even get some bigmom stuff
I don't see this arc being short at all
