Spoiler One Piece Chapter 1007 Spoilers Discussion

[Zoroe]

Lol, probably won't until all the matchups are set.

A few of us are guessing the chapter counter are on purpose and Oda has been carefully "pacing" what he's been trying trying do this arc. Currently Act 3 is exactly 50 chapters, so some people think hes going for double per Act and then back down. For example:

- Act 1: 15 Chapters
- Act 2: 30 Chapters
- Act 3: 60 Chapters (rest of the calamity setup; matches)
- Act 4: 30 Chapters (Bulk of the real battles)
- Act 5: 15 Chapters (Arc closing)

If looked at this way, it can potentially make sense since there are going to be a decent number of chapters before Sanji, Chopper and maybe Yamato get their potential matchups, plus updates and skirmishes on the rest.

Then think about a 30 chapter Act 4. If Oda dedicates 1-2 true chapters per Strawhat battle (as hes done always on the past ala Sanji vs Jabra, Chopper vs Kumadori, Zoro vs Mr 1/Kaku/Ryuuma, pretty much every fight that's not Luffys), that's between 10-20 chapters for those fights. This gives the Yonko fight potentially another 10-20 chapters (somewhere on the middle) on its own because that's normally what Oda does, give Luffy's (and likely Zoro's now, but we'll see) fights a much longer space of time.

Just something to think about. If Act 3 ends in 10 chapters, then we know this is possible. If it ends sooner or longer, then anything is pretty much game.

- Franky
- Brook
- Jinbei
- Yamato
- Carrot
- Momo

Plot convenience my friend.....if Straw hats would have fought red hair pirates..........oda would introduce some rivalry between benn beckmen and yasopo and make them fight each other while straw hats are invading............

There should be a limit to how much Oda wants to Use PIS to make the Strawhats win

CP9 Being dumb as fuck was ridiculous but this is a whole new level of Dumbass behaviour.

Queen is wasting 33 years of Recruitment all because he can't control his mouth

11 chapters left? ~ That means by July we should Act 3 end..
Someone said we wouldn't see Kaido Hybrid in the next four months.
Guess they were right..

[draganax]

the person hawkins and x-drake were talking about him having a 1% chance of survival is osoba mask : vinsmoke sanji.
please oda make it happen.

 

[KenshiraSonata]

Momo ain't joining

And Carrot will? LOL

 

[Peroroncino]

Momo ain't joining

same for yamato and carrot

 

[DiscoZoro20]

One Piece’s writing hasn’t been good since Zou. I keep saying this but no one is listening lol.

If noone is listening then it is probably not true.

Sanji will be reborn from the ashes and become a fire bird, a Phoenix

 

[Roronoa-sama]

G4th has a 30 min timelimit; they were defeated before Luffy reached the roof, so your argument is invalid.

when g4 has had 30 min timelimit? But it isn't important if it has passed 10/30 min or 5 hours the real problem it's than kinemon and the others have been able to recover very quickle when kaido punched them till the dead. The problem is than oda doesn't want to someone will dead when this is a fucking war

 

[Blother Fertitta]

What a fucking joke One Piece is.., the scabbards was beaten to pulp by the world strongest creature, undoubtedly the hardest hitter there is..,
and suddenly someone tends their wounds and they're good to go again.., really..?
By this logic, they could go on forever.., what a masterpiece of writing Oda..., well done..

Yeah people really gon' ignore this and look at the shiny object thats Oden.

Yes...thats how it is.......the more powerful characters/groups Straw hats face the more PIS there will be............

Nah I still think we will see the battle shift to the roof and stuff before then. Truly if there are 11 chapters left, it's enough time to:

- Solidify ALL matchups (Sanji, Chopper and potentially Yamato included)
- Show all the hybrids for each matchup; continue each fight for a decent amount of time
- Show whats going on with the scabbards and "Oden"/1004 silhouette
- Reveal what Fukurokuju is up to; potentially Orochi's fakeout death; maybe Kanjuro is alive
- Potentially show whereabouts of Hiyori, Caribou, Tengu, Onimaru in this time frame too

I think it is certainly possible. At the same time, 10 more chapters for Act and 30 chapters for Act 4 might not be enough lmao. We still forget there is likely a Kaido/Yamato/Rocks flashback to address too, Zoro needs to know his past at Wano (though this could just be explained at the end of the arc), etc.

A ton of stuff. We are at 100 chapters next chapter, im starting to question if 150 chapters will be enough to neatly tie everything up this arc lol. If you told me 20 chapters ago that the matchups wouldn't have been fully set, I would have believed you because I've been telling people since Jinbe's return that it will take Oda like 30-40 chapters just to set the matchups, but also have to achieve every other "little" plotline this arc.

 

[MonsterKaido]

1101 we move to roof top mirroring chapter 1001 :cheers:

 

[ErionRoronoa]

i really don’t know why people think someone on the roof of dying. It’s obviously gonna be someone else like Marco. The 5 on the roof can’t die because they are the new generation.

People need to stop with this nonsense it’s just getting annoying. Law kidd and killer are not dying.

Being from the new generation doesn't mean shit. Ace was also a from the new generation.

How many fucking times do I have to remind people about Hawkins' prediction? They don't know how big this is!

- Zoro and Luffy have the plot armor armor no mi. Plus Hawkins already checked their survival rate at the beginning of this arc and I think it was 19 percent.
- The scabbards are pretty safe. If they survived the rooftop they will survive anything. Also, Hawkins has no interest in them.
- Marco didn't even show up when Hawkins was talking about that character.

- Hawkins is definitely talking about one of these three characters; Kid/ Killer or Law. Because Kid and Killer were his allies, and Law had the most confrontation/ encounter with him.
I think Law dying is too obvious and cliche. It can still happen but it wouldn't be a surprise since everyone is talking about it. That's why I think Oda will choose Killer or Kid to keep the element of surprise relevant and to introduce their tragic flashback, which makes it even sadder.

Two things:

1) One Piece has always been a bang average shonen in terms of consistency (power levels, sizes of characters etc.) and inner-manga logic. Its strengths are worldbuilding and the unique mix of goofiness, serious themes and adventure.

2) it is true that the pinacle of OP is behind us. The stretch from Jaya to Sabaody will always be peak One Piece. The slow decline started with Marineford (most overrated arc in manga history in my book) and then post-skip OP stabilized on a still solid level in terms of writing, but clearly below its former heights.

 

[Watakuri]

Hopefully the zoans go hybrid next chapter and their animalistic side takes over making them ruthless. Kaido won't be taking dumb attacks anymore and will instead be attacking with intent to kill. Same goes for dumb people like Queen who doesn't even feel like a commander.
Was hybrid ulti and pageone ruthless? If not I have no hope for tension in this arc and kaido hybrid form will be shit like his dragon form
