Are you a fan of One Piece? Hold on tight because Eiichiro Oda just confirmed that the Final Saga of One Piece is about to start soon and it’s going to be epic, with 5 epic duels to begin with! The much-awaited saga will be initiated by Monkey D Luffy vs Shanks, followed by Roronoa Zoro vs Dracule Mihawk. As per the insider news, the Final Saga of One Piece will begin in 2023 while the manga version will end in just 3 years.
Monkey D Luffy’s adventures to become the Pirate King and finding the One Piece treasure will become more interesting as the Final Saga approaches. Especially the faceoff between Luffy and his mentor, Shanks is highly awaited by the fans. Another exciting duel that awaits us involves Zoro vs Mihawk, where the title of the strongest swordsman in the One Piece universe will be challenged and fought.
Apart from Luffy and Zoro, the series creator, Eiichiro Oda, will also showcase the action of Vinsmoke Sanji, who will go against Admiral Kizaru. This fight could potentially be one of the earliest battles and will undoubtedly be thrilling to watch. Even after the long and fierce struggle against Kaido and Big Mom, both Worst Generation and Straw Hats might have even more powerful characters to defeat before reaching the last island Laugh Tale.
No one knows for sure who will fight whom, but we have predicted the top 5 battles that will take place before the Final Saga of One Piece:
1. Luffy vs Shanks/Kurohige
2. Luffy vs Kurohige
3. Luffy vs Akainu
4. Zoro vs Mihawk
5. Sanji vs Kizaru
Luffy vs Shanks/Kurohige holds the topmost position on our list. Shanks is still a mysterious character whose appearance is yet to be discovered. The fight between Luffy and his mentor, Shanks, or against his biggest enemy, Kurohige, can be a deal-breaker in the story.
Luffy vs Akainu is another highly anticipated fight that the fans are looking forward to watching. After witnessing Akainu’s brutal killing of Ace, Luffy’s desire to avenge his brother is palpable. Even though Luffy was no match for him during the Marineford, the story is in its final stage now, and Luffy has grown immensely in strength and power. It’s safe to say that Luffy is more than capable of defeating Akainu with his Gear 5, Haki Conquerors’ advanced level attack, and more fighting experience.
Zoro vs Mihawk is a fight that cannot be missed. Zoro’s mentor and the strongest swordsman in the One Piece universe, with Zoro’s been close to Luffy in power, their face-off could happen much earlier than expected. It’ll be interesting to see how Zoro overcomes Mihawk’s sword fighting skills and earns the title of the strongest swordsman.
Sanji vs Kizaru could be the earliest fight of the Final Saga as it is teased as early as chapter 1070 upon Kizaru’s journey towards facing off with Vegapunk. Since Luffy, Zoro, and Sanji are often referred to as the monster trio, Fans are eagerly waiting to see Sanji’s fight against an admiral like Kizaru, known for his speed and kicks.
In conclusion, the Final Saga of One Piece is going to be nothing short of epic. We can expect the unexpected from Eiichiro Oda, and we’re sure he has a lot more surprises up his sleeve. With our list of top 5 duels, we can’t wait to see how the future of One Piece is going to pan out!
