On Wednesday, February 8th, raw scans of One Piece chapter 1074 were made available, providing a tantalising glimpse at the rumoured forthcoming issue. As was to be expected, the purported raw scans confirm every detail of the early and full summary teasers that came out earlier in the week. One Piece chapter 1074 is notable for featuring Vivi Nefertari’s return to the series after an absence of over 200 issues. Even though it’s only fan speculation, many people seem to think that Vivi and the Straw Hats will get back together again sooner rather than later.
Raw scans of One Piece chapter 1074 show off the Mark III Pacifistas for the first time and lay the stage for some big revelations in the next chapter. As the raw scans for One Piece chapter 1074 open, we see Queen, Caesar Clown, and Vinsmoke Judge engaged in combat. After a brief introduction, the issue’s tale material begins as it transports readers to the Fabriophase of Egghead Island. This issue is titled “Mark III” because it depicts regular CP0 agents against the Mark III Pacifista. The Mark IIIs seem like Bartholomew Kumas, but they distinguish themselves from typical Pacifistas by donning sunglasses and unique attire. Spoilers for the complete report suggest that the gooey shield or weapon used by the Mark IIIs is the Bubble Shield. Here, its resilience is demonstrated by its ability to deflect a rocket-propelled explosion.
After establishing that the Mark III units easily dispatched the CP0 agents, we switch to Sentomaru’s point of view as he recovers from the wounds inflicted by Rob Lucci. Sentomaru had a momentary flashback to Luffy’s Gear 5th form before activating and giving commands of additional Mark III Pacifista with a Den Den Mushi. Raw scans from Chapter 1074 of One Piece show the CP0 elite fleeing the scene while more Mark III units come to battle. The issue then changes viewpoint to show Luffy and the rest of the Straw Hats and the Vegapunk Satellites in the Lab Stratum. Brook, Lucci, and Kaku are brought in by Stussy and Zoro, who shows up shortly after.
Panels later, it looks like the whole gang of Straw Hats and Vegapunks are gathered together, along with Stussy and Lucci and Kaku, who is still comatose. During this time, Shaka and Franky had a brief conversation with the others looking on. Following this, everyone else leaves save for Luffy and Zoro, most likely to go for Dr Vegapunk and Bonney as was previously revealed in the complete summary spoilers. From then, the raw scans of One Piece chapter 1074 segue to a focus on Jewelry Bonney, but not before showing a quick flashback panel of the baby-fied Dr Vegapunk. She appears to be in a vast field that is a manifestation of her memory world.
Her father, Bartholomew Kuma, appears right in front of her, disguised as a young child. The full summary spoilers state that the bullies that torment little Kuma are not Celestial Dragons. After a while, the crowd starts beating him up, and then Mariejois and the celestial dragons come into the background, in silhouette. With that, a sobbing Bonney seems to escape the Memory World and return to the laboratory, where her father’s memory ball is kept. Then, as Bonney starts to cry and seems to remember what her father had said to her, we see shots of Kuma continuing to ascend the Red Line. After this, raw scans of One Piece chapter 1074 show Vegapunk Pythagoras strolling through the Lab Stratum until suddenly turning around to investigate a noise behind him.
But as soon as he turns around, the place he is in is destroyed by an explosion. The raw pictures eventually pan to show the World Economy News Paper airship hovering above Egghead Island with Big News Morgans on board. After learning that Vivi Nefertari and Wapol are on his team, he turns away from Luffy’s wanted poster to speak with his staff. After what appears to be an argument between the three, the issue ends.
