One Piece Chapter 1000 cover is now circulating online, teasing how special the milestone episode will be. Now that fans are waiting for the summary spoilers and raw scans' release, different theories and predictions are now surrounding this much-awaited chapter.

According to Block Toro, the One Piece Chapter 1000 cover is the second half of the double spread that features the franchise's characters, specially drawn by the best manga artists. The said cover only hinted that the physical manga copies are now printed.

So, it will only take a matter of time before the scan pages come out, by the looks of it. Surely, Eiichiro Oda will drop a big reveal to celebrate this massive milestone.

Epic Dope predicted fans might see "parallel storylines" instead of just one plot. The three-minute countdown that O-Tama told Hihimaru to hold off Page and Ulti in Chapter 996 might mean something.

She might drop a massive bombshell after the said time, and it might have something to do with the enemy ship that O-Tama boarded. In Chapter 999, Yamato was looking at Oden's Log Book when she said Luffy's middle initial, which might be connected to the Will of D.

In addition, Kaido used his devil fruit powers to bring Onigashima to the Flower Capital. This might result in a lot of casualties in Onigashima that would be an exciting sight to see, particularly on how the Straw Hats Pirates would face Kaido in One Piece Chapter 1000.

Lastly, O-Tama would have a huge role to play in the upcoming war. As her devil fruit lets her have full control of animals and Zoan devil fruit users that eat "Kibi Dango," she could have controlled Kaido's forces. She might turn them against him, along with Usopp's sniping skills.

In addition, on the manga's subreddit, International Business Times noted a reliable insider named Redon noticed One Piece Chapter 1000's title, "Straw Hat Luffy," was the same thing Oda used in Chapter 2. At the time, Luffy managed to bring Alvida down, the first villain in the series. Alvida also had the same spiked club that looked precisely like Kaido's.

Does it mean Luffy will defeat Kaido in One Piece Chapter 1000 or in the next chapters to come? Fans are quite sure that Luffy will win the fight. The only question is how he will do it.
