There are high expectations for the coming "One Piece" Chapter 1055. As the final saga begins, a fan-favorite character may return and join the Straw Hat Pirates.
Though nothing solid is known about the upcoming "One Piece" Chapter 1055, famous leakers have been dropping hints on Twitter about what may happen next. So, who's the returning character they have been teasing? They say it's Carrot.
Carrot has been missing in action for quite a while, but if the leaks are true, fans will again see the rabbit mink back. Redon, who's one of the most trusted leakers in the community, dropped a hint that teases the return of a character or the beginning of a new fight, Sports Keeda noted.
Some allude it could be Kaido and Big Mom, but it's unlikely to happen. WorstGenHQ, another known leaker, predicts "something unexpected but not unpleasant" might happen in "One Piece" Chapter 1055.
These hints make fans think that Carrot will return and she may become the new member of the Straw Hat crew. This has been an ongoing theory about the character for years, with many strongly believing she will one day join Luffy and the rest of his group, considering her chemistry with them.
Whatever happens, the new chapter is expected to be a great one. The manga creator, Eiichiro Oda, said in a message in Shonen Jump Issue 33 that the real journey of the series had just begun.
He even assured fans that it was okay if they would only opt to read the manga today. Though his note resulted in a little controversy, it made fans more excited; knowing the real and final journey of "One Piece" had officially started.
Shanks even said it was the right time they joined the fight for "One Piece." By the looks of it, fans wanted to see more of Shanks in "One Piece" Chapter 1055, per OtakuKart News.
Though no one knows what will happen next, it's quite expected that Momonosuke, Yamato and the Red Scabbards will fight against Greenbul.
Momo even swore to fight him by himself, hinting that he might have something up his sleeve. It's also possible that readers will see Shanks going on his own journey as the manga neers its ending.
Fans are about to see these and more when "One Piece" Chapter 1055 drops on Sunday, July 31, in Shonen Jump's 35th issue.
