The Egghead arc of the One Piece manga is reaching its finale, bringing an end to an extraordinary storyline. Here’s a comprehensive overview of the developments.
Fans have patiently awaited the Elbaf arc for more than two decades, and the confirmation finally arrived in Chapter 1090 (August 2020). The kingdom of Giants, initially introduced in the Little Garden arc of the Arabasta Saga, left a lasting impression as the Straw Hats encountered the honorable warriors, Dorry and Brogy. The prospect of an island inhabited by more giants fueled their imagination.
Despite the long wait, there were no indications of the highly-anticipated Elbaf arc until the ongoing Egghead arc. As Kizaru launches an assault on Egghead, the Straw Hats, Bonney, and Vegapunk make preparations to escape to a nearby island. Notably, the log pose is pointing towards the northeast, the location of Elbaf.
With the confirmation that the next arc will be Elbaf, the conclusion of the Egghead arc appears imminent in One Piece.
Everything We Know About the Egghead Arc Finale in One Piece?
A One Piece insider has hinted at a climactic moment in the Egghead arc for Chapter 1107. However, it’s essential to note that this information is unofficial, and the ongoing arc may take a few more chapters to reach its conclusion.
The compelling reason behind the belief that the Egghead arc in One Piece is approaching its finale is the unexpected arrival of Dorry and Brogy. The duo emerges just in time to thwart the Marine battleships and prevent the Buster Call. Their stated reason for intervening is Straw Hat Luffy, or more precisely, Sun God Nika.
The Straw Hats first encountered this giant pair during the Little Garden arc of the Arabasta Saga. Dorry and Brogy, former leaders of the Giant Warrior Pirates 102 years ago, disbanded after a prolonged argument. Despite being evenly matched, they engaged in a century-long battle, eventually forgetting the cause of their dispute.
Baroque Works’ interference led to Brogy’s victory, and the giants, currently residing in Elbaf, have resumed their pirate activities. Their appearance for Luffy indicates a likely intention to bring him to Elbaf.
Having believed in the Sun God Nika for centuries, the giants’ anticipation comes to fruition with Luffy’s devil fruit awakening. While more adventures await the Straw Hat Pirates, it’s noteworthy that Jaguar D. Saul, Robin’s close friend, is still alive. A heartfelt reunion between them is undoubtedly on the horizon.
As the Egghead arc concludes in upcoming One Piece chapters, the transition to the Elbaf arc may not commence immediately. Expect some filler chapters to bridge the gap between Egghead and the beginning of the Elbaf arc.
