Ever since the news about One Piece entering the final arc, fans have been eagerly waiting for the day it will come to an end. However, did you know that Eiichiro Oda already hinted at the series’ conclusion years ago? According to a recent video uploaded by YouTube channel Anime Haki, Oda gave clues as to when One Piece will end in an interview back in 1998.
Oda stated that Shanks would appear more often in the story as the series approaches its conclusion. Looking back, we can see that Shanks has been making more appearances, especially in the recent chapters leading up to One Piece 1083. Additionally, with the news of Shanks joining the hunt for the One Piece treasure, the likelihood of a battle between him and Luffy grows ever more significant.
It’s no secret that Shanks is a beloved character, and fans have been curious about his role in the story since the beginning. One popular theory was that he is the world’s balance keeper, but that theory has been disproven recently with the news of his treasure hunt. With all that’s been happening, it’s safe to say that Shanks will continue to play a more prominent role in One Piece’s final arc.
The thought of One Piece coming to a close might be bittersweet, but knowing that Oda has planned the ending from the beginning makes it more exciting. Fans can look forward to following the clues that will lead to the discovery of the One Piece treasure and finding out who will emerge victorious.
In conclusion, with the hint given by Eiichiro Oda, we can safely say that One Piece’s conclusion is drawing near. As we approach the final arc, fans can expect to see more of Shanks and a possible clash between Luffy and his idol. All these and more are set to unfold in One Piece 1083 and beyond, leading to the eventual discovery of Laugh Tale.
