One Piece Chapter 1002: Release Date, Delay, Discussion, Read Online

The adventures of Monkey D. Luffy and his crew in search of the legendary treasure — One Piece, have been serializing chapters for over two decades.

This 1000+ chapter series is often regarded as the King of Manga because of it being the highest-grossing manga for a decade.

One Piece released chapter 1001 on Sunday, titled “Battle of Monsters on Onigashima.” So, it’s time to discuss the release date, scans, and other details for chapter 1002.

1. Chapter 1002 Raw Scans, Leaks & Spoilers

Raw scans for Chapter 1002 of the One Piece manga have been leaked. The title for chapter 1002 is “Yonkou Vs. New Generation.“

Chapter 1002 continues the 2v5 fight between the Yonkou and the Supernova. Kaido uses an attack called “Great Wind,” however Zoro counters it by using Enma. Luffy takes this opportunity to hit Kaido with his “Gomu Gomu no Kong Rifle.” Kid follows with “Slam Gibson,” and Law finally makes up for his horrible attack in the last chapter by using “Gamma Knife” on Kaido.

Killer goes in to attack Kaido with “Kamaa Sonic,” but Big Mom uses Zeus to attack Killer with “Indra” (lightning attack).

Luffy follows up his Kong Rifle with a “Gomu Gomu no Rhino Schneider” aimed at Kaido. Kaido uses “Boro Breath” to target Luffy, however, Zoro interceeds again and slices it up with Kinemon’s “Kitsunebiryuu: Homurasaki.”

Continuing the barrage of attacks, Zoro hits Kaido with the same Flying Dragon Flame technique he used against Ryuma. Kaido is reminded of Oden’s terrifying power when he looks at Zoro.

Big Mom uses a large scale lightning attack, which doesn’t work on Luffy because he is made of rubber! Luffy ends the chapter by attacking Kaido with a new attack called “Gomu Gomu no Kong Gatling.”

NO BREAK NEXT WEEK

2. Chapter 1002 Speculations/Predictions

Chapter 987 officially kicked off the war on Onigashima. With the declaration of an all out war against Kaido, Big Mom, and Orochi, Luffy drew a lot of attention to himself. Since there is a lot going on at the same time, it is more than likely that we will see parallel storylines instead of just one.

I. The Fight Begins

Luffy, Zoro, Kid, Killer, & Law arrived onto the rooftop of Onigashima epicly in chapter 1000. Facing off against the Yonko in front of them will not be an easy task, even though they outnumber their enemy.

This fight will be one for the history books and it officially began when Luffy made Kaido eat dirt with his Gear 3 – Red Roc! Buckle down, for the most awaited fight in Wano is in progress!

II. The Three Minute Countdown

Chapter 996 revealed that O-Tama hitched a ride on an enemy ship to travel to Onigashima. On the same page, she specifically asks Hihimaru to hold off Page One and Ulti for 3 minutes.

While this can be passed off as nothing, it is very likely that after these three minutes are up, an important reveal will be made. The reveal will probably be related to the enemy ship which Tama boarded.

III.  New Onigashima

Chapter 997 showed Kaido using his devil fruit ability to lift up Onigashima to ferry it into the Flower Capital. Since the Flower Capital is bursting with joy, if Kaido lands there with Onigashima, a lot of casualties will happen.

It will be interesting to see how the Straw Hats battle against Kaido with the lives of Wano citizens at stake.

IV. O-Tama’s Devil Fruit Prowess

While some people might have forgotten about her, O-Tama still has a big role to play in the upcoming war.

Her devil fruit allows her to have complete control over animals and Zoan devil fruit users who eat “Kibi Dango” made from her cheeks. Coupled with Usopp’s sniping skills, Tama may be able to control a huge chunk of Kaido’s forces against him.

It is more than likely that she was the looming figure behind Robin and Jinbei in chapter 979.

3. Chapter 1002 Release Date & Highlights

Chapter 1002 of the One Piece manga, titled “Yonkou Vs. New Generation”, has been released on Sunday, Jan 31, 2021 at 9:30 am PDT.

5. Chapter 1001 Plot

The chapter starts by showing Kaido’s shock at the fact that Luffy’s attack actually hurt him. This confirms that the Ryou he learned is effective against Kaido. As Kaidou looks at Luffy, he sees the shadows of Roger, Whitebeard, Oden, and Rocks behind him. Kaido goes in for an attack, but Luffy uses Future Sight Haki to dodge. However, Kaido is so fast that Luffy is partially hit regardless.

Big Mom tries to interfere with “Heavenly Fire,” but Zoro cuts Prometheus in half!!! Zoro can officially cut fire!!!

Kaido goes in for another attack, but Law pulls Luffy out using Shambles. After this, in a comedic moment, the three captains start competing against each other about who is a “lower-level” guy. They all get hit by Big Mom’s attack due to their antics.

Zoro puts on his bandana and a rivalry between him and Killer emerges. Together, they go in to attack Kaido and manage to wound him. Kaido smiles and compliments their power.

Luffy, Kid & Law are back on their feet and attack Kaido together. Kaido tells Big Mom to wait since he wants to see their peak power.

Luffy uses Gomu Gomu no Kong Gun, Law uses Takt to drop tons of rocks on Kaidou and Kid uses a new attack called “Punk Rotten: Punk Vise”, a giant robot with a skull face that crushes Kaido with both hands.

Kaido emerges from the rocks in dragon form. In a beautifully drawn double spread, Kaidou in dragon form and Big Mom with her flaming sword face the 5 Supernova.

The chapter ends as Kaido says that it would be such a waste to kill them all. But it can’t be helped.
Whoever wins this battle, will be only a few steps from becoming the Pirate King!!

6. Chapter 1001 Cover Page

Apart from the main storyline in the manga chapters, One Piece also advances the storyline by featuring scenes around the world in the form of cover stories.

Chapter 1001’s cover shows a Reader Request – “Jinbei Resting Luxuriously on A Jellyfish Bed.” This cover was requested by P.N. Toshikiya.

7. About One Piece

One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda. It has been serialized in Shueisha’s Weekly Shōnen Jump magazine since July 22, 1999, and has been collected into 96 tankōbon volumes.

The man who had acquired everything in this world, the Pirate King, is Gol D. Roger. The final words he said at the execution tower were “My treasures? If you want it, I’ll let you have it. Look for it; I left all of it at that place.” These words sent many to the seas, chasing their dreams, headed toward the Grand Line, in search of One Piece. Thus began a new age!

Seeking to be the greatest pirate in the world, young Monkey D. Luffy also heads toward the Grand Line in search of One Piece. With his diverse crew joining him along the way, consisting of a swordsman, marksman, navigator, cook, doctor, archaeologist, and cyborg-shipwright, this will be one memorable adventure.
