Even though Chapter 1071 has yet to be released, fans of “One Piece” are anxiously anticipating the release of Chapter 1072. Readers can’t help but speculate about what may happen next in the “Egghead Island” arc, thanks to the series’ numerous surprising twists and turns. So, here are five potential plot points that fans of “One Piece” hope to see in Chapter 1072. There are a number of twists more to come, including the identity of Vegapunk’s enigmatic buddy and the arrival of Elbaf.
A Mysterious Supporter of Vegapunk
Topping SportsKeeda’s list of the future chapter reveals is the debut of Vegapunk’s unknown buddy in Chapter 1072. There may be a lot of speculation about this anonymous person on the internet right now, but no hard evidence has yet surfaced to reveal they’re true identity.
Confronting the Real Bartholomew Kuma
The genuine Bartholomew Kuma may show himself in “One Piece” Chapter 1072, proving that he is still alive and has not yet been totally transformed into a cyborg. Some speculate that Vegapunk provides the Celestial Dragons with a genuine Pacifista model, concealing Kuma away on Egghead Island, and emerging at the appropriate time.
How Garp Is Going to Kill Blackbeard
As a result, Garp is likely plotting an attack on Blackbeard in an attempt to rescue Koby. It’s true, as evidenced by Chapter 1071’s spoilers, and it might start in Chapter 1072.
Insights from SWORD’s Supreme Leader
The actual SWORD leader and its hierarchy may also be revealed in “One Piece” Chapter 1072. Koby and Helmeppo have been identified as group members, lending credence to speculation that Garp serves in a leadership capacity.
Elbaf’s Debut
Supporters may get to meet Elbaf soon. In Chapter 1071, when Kid finally makes it to the island, he will be the first major series character ever to set foot there. However, the publishing dates for the manga in January have been announced. It’s unfortunate that this month’s release will be limited to just two chapters. New chapters may be delayed if creator Eiichiro Oda takes time off for personal reasons in addition to the usual holiday vacations. On January 7, after a delay of two weeks, the release of “One Piece” Chapter 1071 will occur.
The next chapter of “One Piece,” number 1072, will be released on Sunday, January 22, 2019, after another one-week hiatus. This schedule, however, is subject to change at any time and without warning. It’s also possible that “One Piece” Chapter 1073 will be released in the same month because the schedule isn’t set in stone and might still require some tweaking.
