by

This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Elbaf arc.

Summary

  • One Piece 1146 delayed, Oda taking a break after 3 chapters.
  • Chapter 1146 releases on April 20, fans can read for free.
  • Expect a clash between Gunko and Straw Hat Pirates in the Elbaf arc.

The intensity of the Elbaf storyline in “One Piece” is reaching a boiling point as the long-awaited clash with the Holy Knights approaches. With Gunko now appearing before the Straw Hat Pirates on their flying ship, Svalr, it seems that Eiichiro Oda is ready to depict grand battles within the Elbaf arc.

Firstly, let me clarify that there’s a pause coming up in the storyline of One Piece. This isn’t unexpected news to its followers since it’s been confirmed that chapter 1146 will be postponed. The anticipation for this chapter is growing, but fans are aware that the creator, Oda, needs to prioritize his health above all else. Fortunately, a new release date for One Piece chapter 1146 has already been set, so there’s no need for excessive concern.

One Piece Chapter 1146 Release Date Is Pushed Back As Oda Takes A New Break In April

  • One Piece 1146 Will Drop In 2 Weeks
  • Oda Took The Usual Break After 3 Chapters

Fans usually anticipate reading One Piece chapter 1146 later this week; however, as mentioned in the note from the last chapter, there will be no new manga release this week due to a break. This shouldn’t come as a shock to fans since Oda seldom publishes more than three chapters consecutively.

Previously this year, an unexpected event took place as Oda released four consecutive chapters. This might have led some fans to anticipate a new chapter this week. However, for some time now, Oda has been following a pattern of publishing three chapters before taking a breather to recharge from the strain of producing weekly manga. Back then, Oda used to pause his work on One Piece after every six chapters, but over the years, the frequency of these breaks has decreased considerably.

In the Wano Country storyline, Oda used to release four chapters in a row before taking a break. Now, he pauses after every three or sometimes just two chapters. Fans must accept this pattern if they want him to maintain his well-being as well.

Get lost! I did not come all this way to talk to a snot-nosed brat like you. — Rocks to Loki

Fret not, One Piece fans! Contrary to any concerns about a lengthy break, One Piece is not taking an extended hiatus. Instead, prepare for the release of chapter 1146 next week, which has been scheduled for April 20, 2025, as confirmed by Manga Plus. You can enjoy this latest installment free of charge on Manga Plus, and your support for Oda will be greatly appreciated. In Japan, the manga is typically published at midnight JST on a Monday; however, most international readers will find it available on Sunday instead.

One Piece Chapter 1146 Predictions: Gunko and The Straw Hat Pirates Will Finally Clash

Readers are eagerly anticipating One Piece chapter 1146 as they believe it will significantly advance the Elbaf storyline. It’s evident that the Elbaf arc will soon feature Gunko in action. As a Holy Knight, Gunko is formidable, and though she has been watching the events unfold from the sidelines until now, it seems her time to act has come.

That’s surprising! So not every child was in the school. You’re a rowdy one too! — Gunko to Collun

Towards the close of the previous chapter, Gunko appeared at the Svalr of the Straw Hat Pirates, noticeably taken aback by Collun’s presence. It’s evident that Gunko intends to abduct Collun, and it seems likely that this will happen in One Piece chapter 1146. Despite the ship being manned by formidable fighters like Jinbe, Gunko is expected to be significantly more powerful, capable of overpowering Jinbe without breaking a sweat.

In One Piece chapter 1146, fans may witness an exhilarating battle between the Straw Hat Pirates and Gunko, potentially resulting in the apprehension of Collun. Simultaneously, viewers can anticipate Scopper Gaban making his move. Collun serves a crucial role here if Scopper Gaban is to be countered. Oda is seeking a way to weaken Gaban so he doesn’t overpower the Holy Knights, and Collun could provide just that plot twist.

Loki’s Past Continues To Be Fleshed Out

In the upcoming chapter 1146 of One Piece, it’s anticipated that Loki will continue his conversation with Luffy. Previously, Loki shared fragments of his story, but it seems he’ll soon disclose all about his past. As Loki gets better, readers can expect to uncover more pieces of his past, leading up to a full flashback about his character in future chapters by Oda. Fans can look forward to discovering more about Loki’s admiration for Rocks D. Xebec in One Piece chapter 1146.

One Piece Chapter 1146 will be published soon, specifically this coming Sunday for most readers around the world. In Japan, it’ll be released at midnight on Monday (Japan Standard Time). But for the majority of international fans, they can look forward to reading the chapter on April 20th. The official release date for One Piece Chapter 1146 is set for April 20, 2025. Excitingly, fans can access this chapter for free through Manga Plus!
