One Piece Creator Eiichiro Oda Confirms The Introduction Of A New Legendary Pirate After Elbaph

The current battle, which seems to be a showdown between powerful figures, will likely wrap up this storyline. This is because the creator of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda, has announced plans for a new story arc to begin in 2026. This new arc will introduce a highly anticipated character known as the Man With the Burn Scar, or Hinokizu – a figure first hinted at in chapter 1056 of the manga back in August 2022. After four years, Oda intends to fully reveal this legendary character and his story.
