  • According to the tip from Redon, Oda will be taking a break after chapter 1088 which might be around for a duration of one week followed by the next chapter, Chapter 1089.
  • The break after Chapter 1089 is a break for the entire Weekly Shonen Jump Magazine because of Summer Vacation in Japan and not Oda’s break.

While most of the fans are sceptical about the break, especially since Oda took a month-long break especially, the other half think that it’s a well-deserved break and Oda will be back to work like he always has before too.

What to Expect from Chapter 1088

The title of One Piece Chapter 1088 is “Last Lesson”. According to the spoilers, the chapter will pick up where the previous chapter left off, with Koby and Helmeppo fighting against the World Nobles. Koby will use a new attack called “Honesty Impact”, which will apparently be very powerful. The chapter is also said to feature a flashback of Koby’s training with Garp.

Here are some brief highlights of the chapter-

  1. Koby uses a new attack called the “Honesty Impact”.
  2. Kuzan creates an Ice Blade and pierces Garp while he’s surrounded by Blackbeard pirates.
  3. Garp is laughing while the ice starts to freeze (like Saul in Ohara).
  4. Narrator Takeover: “Legendary Hero Garp” disappeared at Hachinosu (“Pirate Island”). Fate: Unknown.
  5. On the last page of the chapter, the Marines arrive at Egghead Island.

While the spoilers don’t expletively mention it, it can be presumed that Kuzan is also using the Ice Time Capsule, effectively defeating Garp but not killing him as seen with Saul’s survival of the attack.

Another interesting fact is that the narrator says that Garp’s ultimate fate is “unknown,” rather than saying he’s dead outright, which defies Oda’s way of typically handling death or disappearances in the anime so the fans are perplexed as to what it could mean.

Here’s a more detailed version of the spoilers, summarized by Redon himself.

The Spoilers for Chapter 1090 will be released “very” early. The same goes for its Scanlation (TCB Scans/OPScans), which means the Spoilers for Chapter 1090 will be released as early as August 10 or 11, instead of August 14 or 15, so keep your Twitter notifications on for a happy surprise.
