Luffy’s expedition to find the acclaimed treasure One Piece hidden by Gol D Roger started in 1998, and now, in 2024, we are very close to Luffy achieving his dream of becoming the king of pirates and seeing what One Piece is. The story is in its final saga, and it keeps getting more intense with each passing chapter.
As revealed in recent chapters, Garp became a victim of Blackbeard pirates, who defeated him and took him hostage. Many fan theories and predictions point out Oda sensei recreating God Valley 2.0 with Garp getting executed. This action can also lead to Luffy going berserk and causing havoc.
Garp’s execution can lead to God Valley 2.0 in One Piece
One Piece manga is on a frantic run, with each chapter getting more complicated and many significant events rapidly unfolding, leaving the readers unable to grasp in which direction the series is heading.
During the abduction attempt of Kuja pirates by none other than Blackbeard and his crew, Koby tried to intervene, and although he managed to do his job, he was caught and taken to Hachinosu. Upon hearing this news, Garp wasted no time and went in to rescue his beneficiary.
After entering the island, Garp inflicted heavy damage on his adversaries. Still, due to Koby’s novice mistake of falling into a trap, Garp had to jump and take the hit, which left him fatally impaired. However, this was enough for Koby to escape along with the Marines.
One Piece chapter 1088 ended with Monkey D. Garp’s status being changed to ‘Unknown.’ With no updates on Garp’s current situation, fans are in a dilemma about what Oda sensei plans to do with this plot point, with all possible indications pointed towards God Valley 2.0 coming very soon.
According to possible theories, Garp will be used as bait to lure out Luffy by none other than Blackbeard, who wants to take down Luffy. When Luffy hears about Garp’s absconding, he will go straight for Blackbeard due to his love for Garp.
Many believe that Garp’s arc as a character is about to conclude, and he will be executed in front of Luffy, which will cause him to lose all common sense, go berserk, and commence the battle between Blackbeard and Strawhats.
Koby will not sit back and observe, and we can expect a collaboration between Luffy and Koby as they will go for Blackbeard and do everything in their power to get Garp out of there. It would be exciting to see how this story turns out, as it could lead to dramatic changes in the storyline
Which is going to be the next arc after Egghead?
With the Egghead arc rapidly approaching its conclusion, many fans are wondering what could be the next possible destination for Luffy and his crew. According to speculation, it will be Elbaf Island, the country of giants.
In chapter 1106 of One Piece, Dorry and Brogy arrive at the island to rescue Luffy and take his friends to Elbaf Island. They will most likely take them to their hometown, which the audience was first briefed on in Chapter 865.
Elbaf could be the arc that lays the foundation for the war arc destined to happen in One Piece, and it would be the greatest arc ever. With the series edging close to its end, Oda sensei is going all in for the story.
