Fans have the reason to celebrate as One Piece Chapter 1003 will come out on schedule this time. After a long wait for Chapter 1002, they will see what will happen next in the series in a week, and it involves all the characters.
There will be no manga delays or break next week, and Eiichiro Oda will now follow the weekly schedule. After the intense fight between the Yonko and Worst Generation, will it continue in One Piece Chapter 1003?
According to BlockToro, the new chapter's storyline may shift its focus and feature all the manga's characters instead. After putting everyone's attention on the Yonko and Worst Generation's fight, it will explore other sides of the story.
Fans may finally see how Nami or Robin will save Sanji, while the girls will face Black Maria. Knowing the cook can't fight women, someone else will handle the Beast Pirates' strongest six Shinichi for him.
If this happens, Sanji will fight others to help Luffy and the gang in One Piece Chapter 1003. It looks like the battle against Kaido and Big Mom are yet to end, so he may give his allies a hand.
In One Piece Chapter 1002, it mostly featured the fight between the Yonko and Worst Generation, Game n Guides noted. The two parties both countered each other's attack and no one wanted to be defeated.
Luffy, Kid, Law, and Killer managed to hit Kaido. Big Mom then warned Kaido of Zoro's upcoming attack, making Kaido steer clear of it and cutting Onigashima's horn instead.
The Big Mom Pirates' captain then hit back at Zoro, striking him with her lightning, which also hit Luffy. However, with his devil fruit's rubber ability, it didn't affect him, though it remained to be seen what happened to Zoro.
Kaido then attacked Luffy with fire, but that, too, did no harm. This made the two Yonkos surprised, and they couldn't help but asked Luffy what made him immune to their powers.
Luffy proudly revealed his guts kept him protected, and so he continuously attacked Kaido using Kong Gatling. As the battle was yet to end, One Piece Chapter 1003 might answer all the questions fans have—from Kaido's defeat to Zoro's condition after Big Mom's lightning attack.
Thankfully, fans only have to wait for seven days to see what will happen next. The new chapter will drop on Sunday, February 7, per OtakuKart News. It can be read on Viz Media and MangaPlus.
