The latest hints

The first confirmed hint for One Piece chapter 1078 was revealed on Sunday, March 12, 2023, by DrumzTV and Pewpiece. The Twitter account ONE PIECE Spoilers retweeted the leak, while also commenting that leakers have revealed hints pretty early, with a week remaining until episode 1078's release.

The leak in question is a panel from a previous One Piece chapter, featuring Ace's Hat. The panel discusses the aftermath of Ace and Blackbeard's duel on Banaro Island, mentioning that it would later be identified as a trigger for major events to happen in the future.

The major event referred to in this panel is the Marineford War, which transpired between the Whitebeard Pirates and the entire navy.

In context to chapter 1078, this panel is hinting towards a battle that will take place at Egghead, one that will have major consequences in the upcoming story.

ONE PIECE Spoilers Twitter account further elaborated on the hint with the above tweet, confirming that chapter 1078 will take place on Egghead Island and that we will get to witness Sanji fighting. If we take into account the events of the previous chapter, it is most likely that Sanji will fight against the Seraphims in chapter 1078.

On Twitter, fans are hyping that the entire spoiler cycle for the new chapter 1078 has started earlier than expected. The spoilers give fans new content to obsess over and to discuss within the fandom, increasing hype for the upcoming chapter.

Here are a few fan reactions to chapter 1078 hints about the story continuing on on Egghead Island and about Sanji fighting.

The reaction of fans to the hints has been unanimously positive, with most Sanji fans rejoicing at the prospect of their favorite character being involved in a fight in the upcoming chapter. The general reaction on Twitter conveys that most fans believe that Sanji will once again fight S-Shark in chapter 1078 and completely annihilate him.

This is not an unfair assumption to make seeing how in the previous chapter Sanji almost knocked out S-Shark with a single kick. Fans will be hoping for the release of new spoilers over the next few days, giving them more information about new developments that will happen in chapter 1078.
