"One Piece" Chapter 1072 will answer fans' questions that the previous chapter left off. From the arrival of the real Kuma to the mysterious person who will help Vegapunk, the upcoming installment has a lot to reveal.

The title "In This Turbulent World, Where Will the Straw Hats Venture Next?!" hints at what will happen in "One Piece" Chapter 1071. Does this mean the Straw Hats will successfully escape Egghead Island?

The new chapter's official spoilers are yet to be out, but it's not shy of several fan-made theories. One of the revelations fans may see is the mysterious person who will help Vegapunk and the Straw Hats to escape.

Den Den Muschi Vegapunk often communicates with this individual. He also frequently mimics the facial attributes of the person he's talking to, so it may be someone fans have already seen.

The real Kuma is alive and will arrive on Egghead to reunite with his daughter, Bonney, in "One Piece" Chapter 1072. But there are theories Vegapunk will give the Celestial Dragon a Pacifista model and hide the real Kuma until later.

In addition, fan theories assume Garp will die if he attacks Blackbeard to rescue Koby. From there, an all-out war may ensue between Blackbeard, Luffy, and Koby. Garp may also be revealed to be the SWORD leader, hinted by his interest in saving Koby.

Zoro fans are also enjoying the new chapters with the return of their favorite character into the fighting scenes. He has now awakened from his nap and confronted Kaku. However, the fight was cut short after the manga shifted its focus, though there may be a lot of action between the two in "One Piece" Chapter 1072.

Kizaru may also show up with the Marine warships he has gathered. He once promised that he had something in store for the Straw Hats that would make their escape difficult.

Meanwhile, "One Piece" Chapter 1071 saw Kuma frightening everyone when he collided with the Red Line. The Straw Hats, alternatively, were preparing to leave.

Vegapunks asked for help from a mysterious person, though the Marine would surely hunt this individual. The CP0 infiltrated Vegapunk's lab and met Zoro.

Kaku and Zoro then started to fight after the former failed to destroy the Thousand Sunny. Elsewhere, the Kid Pirates were near Elbaf, though it wasn't part of their plan.

However, Kid looked excited to land on the island of the giants. Lastly, Garp argued with Doll about helping Kizaru. He then led a rescue mission to save Koby from Blackbeard.

"One Piece" Chapter 1072 will be out on Sunday, January 23, after the one-week break.
