What to expect (speculation)

As mentioned above, no veritable leaks or spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1054 have been released as of writing this article. However, there are some key plot points that fans can expect based on events and revelations in previous issues, beginning with the presence of Admiral Ryokugyu on Wano.

Ryokugyu’s presence seems to be something which the Straw Hats will inevitably come in contact with, given his approach to the Flower Capital as of last issue’s end. His presence also seems to be something of a double-edged sword, as it will restore life to the barren land of Wano while also going for the head of the country’s true savior.

His intentions are clear; he wants to kill Luffy and take his head back to Fleet Admiral Sakazuki (formerly Admiral Akainu) so he can be praised, despite not being ordered to do so. This seems to be an inverse of Fujitora in Dressrosa, who very much didn’t want to fight Luffy, but was forced to in order to save his career as an Admiral.

The conflict between the two parties will likely begin or come close to beginning in the upcoming, highly-anticipated issue. An issue that is likely to be addressed is the discussion between Nico Robin and Kozuki Sukiyaki, the latter of whom has said that he knows where the Ancient Weapon, Pluton, can be found.

Pluton has been a key part of Robin’s character since her time as Miss All Sunday, when she discovered its location on Alabasta’s Poneglyph. She chose to hide it from Shichibukai Crocodile, who desired to use the weapon to take over the world, as he did with Alabasta.

This led to her eventually joining the Straw Hats, making the weapon a key part of her development thus far. If not continued in the upcoming One Piece Chapter 1054, the topic will no doubt be addressed in the issues immediately thereafter, considering the importance of the discussion.

Finally, fans can expect to see the fallout amongst Luffy, Kid, and Law in the wake of Luffy and Buggy being announced as the new Yonko. This may also parlay into a scene where fans get updated on Buggy’s status, showing us exactly how he fell upwards into the Yonko position after being dismissed as a Shichibukai and hunted as a normal pirate.

Regardless of exactly what happens in One Piece Chapter 1054, fans can no doubt expect all of these plot points to be addressed in the final issues of the Wano arc. Whatever does happen will no doubt be exciting, interesting, and incredibly engaging.
