This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Final Saga.
Summary
- Luffy’s body is stressed beyond belief, shortening his lifespan significantly.
- Luffy’s life is running short due to his previous battles and techniques.
- Oda hints at Luffy potentially dying in One Piece, but it is unlikely due to storyline implications.
Currently, the epic tale of “One Piece” is unfolding in its Final Arc, signifying that the narrative is drawing towards a conclusion. It’s not surprising news that “One Piece” is expected to wrap up within the next few years, implying that Luffy will soon engage in his most significant battles according to the storyline. Simultaneously, this also means that Luffy will come closer than ever before to discovering the One Piece and ultimately claiming it as his own.
As Luffy moves forward in his adventure, fans are eagerly anticipating the grand conflict known as the Great War, which promises to conclude the storyline. This climactic event is expected to liberate the world from the oppressive rule of the Celestial Dragons. One question that has been on everyone’s mind is what will become of Luffy in the end. Could it be that he meets a fate similar to the previous Pirate King, implying a possible death? The manga creator, Oda, has subtly hinted at this possibility through his writing.
Why Luffy Could Potentially Die At The End
- Luffy’s Body Is Stressed Beyond Belief
- His Life Span Must’ve Taken A Massive Hit
Luffy demonstrates an incredible amount of strength that leaves no room for argument. A significant portion of this power lies in his unwavering determination. Time and again, Luffy refuses to quit, frequently surpassing all expectations just to come out victorious in fights. Numerous instances have shown him doing this, such as against Crocodile, Lucci, Moria, and once more on Sabaody. The battles at Marineford and Impel Down left his body in a state of destruction, indicating that he’s been through a lot over the years.
You’re shortening your life by doing this. — Lucci
Luffy’s Life Is Running Short
After repeatedly utilizing Gear 2 against Lucci, Luffy recognized that he was essentially decreasing his own lifespan with this method. Likewise, when Luffy combined Gears 2 and 3 against Moria, the Straw Hats grew concerned as they believed he was sacrificing his life in the process. In a similar vein, Luffy forfeited five years of his life to recover from Magellan’s poison, and later endured more attacks from Ivankov during the war, amplifying his abilities at the expense of his lifespan.
Despite mastering the use of Gear 2, 3, and 4 without exhaustion, Gear 5 presents a unique challenge for Luffy. In the Wano region, when Luffy felt compelled to activate Gear 5 during his battle with Kaido, Kaido warned him that excessive use could lead to death. Luffy’s response was to joke that they would all turn into bones regardless.
You’re gonna kill yourself if you keep this up! — Kaido
Will Luffy Die In One Piece?
In the captivating world of One Piece, there’s been a hint from author Oda suggesting that Luffy might face a life-threatening situation due to his deteriorating health. However, it seems unlikely that Luffy will perish. If such an event were to occur, it would be a significant setback for Chopper, who aspires to eradicate all diseases in the world. Given that Luffy is bound to get sick at some point, this could be Chopper’s opportunity to prove his worth and save his friend. Moreover, given Oda’s plan to conclude One Piece with a grand celebration, it’s hard to imagine such an event taking place without Luffy around.
Eiichiro Oda has already determined the final panel and closing chapter of the story, with a focus not just on the Straw Hats but also on global events. However, he’s unsure about the timeline for when the final saga will commence.
In exactly two weeks from now, we’ll be getting our hands on the next thrilling chapter of One Piece, which will be released as scheduled on a Sunday. For our Japanese readers, that means the chapter will come out at 12AM Japan Standard Time on Monday. However, for most international fans, you can expect to read One Piece Chapter 1152 on June 22.
