The massive fight between Luffy and Kaido is almost here!
One Piece has reached a new milestone, and an important storyline as well. We are now close to the big battle between Luffy and Kaido and their teams. The event will unfold in the anime’s 1000th episode, and a new poster was released in celebration.
The poster was unveiled onTwitter, courtesy of the One Piece team. We see a slew of good and evil in the art, also the contestants in the next battle. Luffy and Kaido are dead at the center as they charge towards each other. The Straw Hat crew are on the side of Luffy while the Beasts Pirates are behind Kaido.
Current arc
We are now at the Wano Country Arc, or Wano Kuni Hen. It’s the thirty-first story arc in the series and the fourth in the Four Emperors Saga of One Piece. It picks up after the Levely arc.
The story begins after the Ninja-Pirate-Mink-Samurai Alliance gather in Wano Country and prepare for the battle against the Beasts Pirates. We get to see the history of Kozuki Oden and his connection to Wano Country, Whitebeard, and Gol D. Roger. Then we see the Alliance’s battle against Onigashima to take down the joint forces of Kaidou and Big Mom. However, the world has vastly changed after the events at Levely.
The two teams
In the Straw Hat crew, we have Nami, Chopper, Jinbei and even Robin, who doesn’t usually join the fights. So we know that the stakes are bigger this time. When it comes to firepower, there is Trafalgar Law and Eustass Kid in team Luffy. He also has the recently-introduced Yamato, for extra backup.
And on team Kaido, we have Queen, Black Maria, and Ulti. Not to mention the massive amounts of foot soldiers. The upper echelon of his gang is hard to beat, even for our heroes. The World Government doesn’t call Kaido and his crew one of the strongest in history for no reason.
How hyped are you for episode 1000?
