As a long-time fan of One Piece with over a decade of investment in this captivating world, I can’t help but feel both exhilarated and apprehensive as we approach the next phase of the Final Saga. The Egghead Arc has been nothing short of a rollercoaster ride, filled with groundbreaking revelations and unexpected twists that have forever altered the balance of power within the One Piece universe.

After two years since its initial release and over 60 chapters published, the Egghead Arc of “One Piece” continues to surpass expectations as an engaging prelude to the Final Saga. Throughout its serialization, this arc has been filled with groundbreaking twists and turns, demonstrating Eiichiro Oda at his creative best. He has provided fans with exhilarating battles and surprising revelations in quick succession.

As the Straw Hat Pirates and their allies fight against the World Government’s invasion of Egghead Island, it seems that the main conflict of the “One Piece” Egghead Arc may be coming to an end. This could mean that we are on the verge of beginning a new story arc in “One Piece.”

How Long Has The Egghead Arc Been?

In the current progression of “One Piece,” the Egghead Arc and Arabasta Arc share the fifth-longest spot with a combined 63 chapters. With more chapters expected to be added, there’s a strong possibility that this arc could surpass Skypiea’s 66 chapters if the story doesn’t conclude soon. Regardless of its length, the significant global events occurring within this arc are impressive and numerous.

Following the appearance of the seven Vegapunks and the Seraphim, the Egghead Arc focused on happenings around the One Piece world. Initially, it provided updates on the outcomes of the other Supernovas who teamed up with Luffy: Eustass Kid and Trafalgar Law. Kid encountered defeat at the hands of Shanks close to Elbaf’s shores, whereas Law’s crew clashed with Blackbeard, and he barely survived the encounter.

After that, the story moves on to Garp attempting a rescue of Koby from the Blackbeard Pirates on Hachinosu. During this mission, he comes across his former pupil Kuzan, who used to go by the name Admiral Aokiji in the Marines. At the same time, Sabo shares details about his adventures at Levely with his Revolutionary Army leaders. This portion of the story offers significant clues regarding the power held by the Five Elders and Imu, laying the groundwork for future developments.

In summary, the attack on Egghead Island and the clash between the Straw Hat Pirates and Admiral Kizaru alongside the Five Elders brought some of the most exhilarating battles in “One Piece” yet. Notable encounters long anticipated by fans did not fail to impress. Furthermore, a heart-rending flashback revealed key aspects of Bartholomew Kuma’s past and his connection with Bonney. The arc concluded chaotically, adding to the intrigue, with Dr. Vegapunk disclosing disturbing revelations about the “One Piece” universe.

The Ramifications Of All Events So Far

In simple terms, the occurrences in the Egghead Arc have caused significant waves throughout the One Piece universe. These events have shifted the power dynamics in the New World and weakened the World Government’s control. Much of this change can be linked to Vegapunk’s announcement, which revealed why information about the Void Century was hidden for so long. At the same time, developments in the Ne World involving the Worst Generation, the Four Emperors, and the Marines have led multiple factions to actively pursue the One Piece as the story nears its conclusion.

The Egghead Saga has not only uncovered locations for the upcoming chapters of the Final Saga, but has also brought to light Jaguar D. Saul’s hideout and salvaged texts from Ohara’s Library. These texts detail scholars’ studies about the Void Century. Moreover, the emergence of the Five Elders on Egghead Island and their disclosed demonic powers and self-healing abilities have foreshadowed formidable adversaries that Luffy will encounter in the future.

The Straw Hats Finally Begin Their Escape

Currently, most of Vegapunk’s satellites, including his flagship Stella, have been destroyed, leaving only two remaining: York, who supports the Five Elders, and Lilith, Vegapunk’s first introduction and now in the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates. Furthermore, the appearance of the Giant Warrior Pirates on Egghead island suggests that it’s time to leave this futuristic island behind.

In Chapter 1120, most of the Straw Hats have embarked on their getaway ships – the Thousand Sunny and the Giant Warrior Pirates’ vessel. However, they must confront a few more battles before they can completely depart from the island. Initially, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn joining the Giant Warrior Pirates will delay Luffy and the giants, as they need to either fight him off or render him unconscious prior to their permanent departure.

Simultaneously, the enigmatic Iron Giant from the Void Century, identified as Emet, conceals a secret weapon bestowed upon him by Joy Boy. Meanwhile, Vegapunk’s communication comes to an end, revealing that they have arrived at the same discovery as the Roger Pirates regarding their findings on Laugh Tale.

In total, every indication suggests that the “Egghead Arc” in the One Piece manga may be wrapping up soon, following almost two years filled with astonishing progressions and disclosures. Moving forward, it’s clear that the Straw Hat Pirates are on the verge of making a journey to the land of the giants.

When Will The Crew Reach Elbaf’s Shores?

If the number of fights left between the Straw Hats and Giant Warrior Pirates is not extensive, then only a few more chapters remain until “One Piece” shifts its focus to Elbaf island. The anticipation for this upcoming arc is immense given the significant events on Egghead, which could potentially bring about the long-awaited reunions between Luffy and Shanks, as well as Nico Robin and Jaguar D. Saul. Therefore, unless an unexpected twist occurs, the crew is likely to reach Elbaf within the next few months of “One Piece’s” publication.

One Piece is available to stream on Crunchyroll.
