As of this writing, chapter 1077 of One Piece is still over a week away, so readers are eager for any and every spoiler information they can acquire. Undoubtedly contributing to fans’ current desire for tale information are the last moments of Chapter 1076, in which Shanks & Eustass Kid appear to be preparing for war. As the show is on hiatus this week, spoilers for One Piece 1077 will have to wait. That is to say, no spoilers will be revealed to the public until the issue’s actual publication week. Although this is disappointing, there are still some key moments for readers to look forward to in this issue.
Major Spoilers for Chapter 1077
Although it’s disappointing for readers, it seems like the focus on Shanks and Kid at the end of the previous chapter won’t be carried over into the next one (One Piece 1077). Constant viewpoint changes have been a hallmark of Eiichiro Oda and Yukito Kishiro’s work on the Egghead Island arc so far, and it seems that trend will continue here. Because of this, readers may anticipate a return to Egghead Isle in the next edition. This is supported by chapter 1076, which focuses on the fact that more than a hundred Marine ships are going to Egghead Island to confront the Straw Hats. The identity of the Vegapunk traitor and Bonney’s investigation into her father’s past are only two of the many threads that have yet to be fully tied in Egghead.
Similar to how an emphasis on Jewelry Bonney is one of the most likely significant spoilers for fans to expect in One Piece chapter 1077. This seems like a good moment to revisit Bonney’s experience, given she hasn’t been seen since chapter 1074 and her final acts were to devote herself to reliving her father’s awful memories. If the issue continues in this vein, readers might expect to learn more about Bartholomew Kuma’s past. Oda, once he gets started, will want to devote a lot of time to his past because it’s the longest loose end he wants to tie up before leaving Egghead. One Piece chapter 1077 might go in a number of different directions, one of which would be to follow the various search groups on their quest to find Dr Vegapunk.
It’s also conceivable that this will tie in with the eventual exposure of the hidden Seraphim. As the Seraphim are modelled after and meant to replace the Shichibukai, many have speculated that there are just three remaining despite there being no official count. This would also explain why Zoro and Luffy heard Nami cry in chapter 1076 when they were battling with Rob Lucci and Kaku. Nami’s life is in jeopardy if her gang has encountered a Seraphim and they don’t have a suitable combatant among them. Fans are predicting that a Seraphim and the World Government would capture her, and they have good reason to believe it will happen because of the series’ history of foreshadowing.
Similarly, Vegapunk Lilith, Vegapunk Pythagoras, Vegapunk York, Franky, and Usopp might be the main characters in One Piece chapter 1077.
Given that S-Snake attacks them in chapter 1076 and has the capacity to turn York to stone with the Devil Fruit, this group is arguably in just as much danger as Nami’s party. This might be a setup for the disclosure that Pythagoras or Lilith is the traitor, who are the two characters most widely suspected by fans. In chapter 1076, Vegapunk Shaka stated that another Vegapunk ordered S-Bear and S-Hawk to attack since they did not follow his commands. Either Lilith or Pythagoras may be portrayed as traitors if they were shown to have control over S-Snake. Nevertheless, this is just conjecture, as there is currently no confirmed spoiler material for One Piece chapter 1077. Hence, readers should keep an open mind & take the above with a grain of salt until the official spoiler process for the issue begins.
