One Piece Chapter 1059 was supposed to be released on September 4, 2022. However, fans who follow the manga weekly must be patient for a little while longer. As Super Typhoon Hinnamnor looms over Japan, the difficulty in releasing One Piece chapter 1059 is rather understandable.
While the previous chapter of One Piece showcased the new bounties of the straw hat pirates, fans were also taken aback by the Cross Guild's advancement in the story. Viewers are expecting a lot more from One Piece chapter 1059, but the circumstances are dire and one must be patient as Japan will be going through some tough times.

Reason for delay
While the delay in the launch was announced three days ago, the reason for the same was not stated. Thus, fans came to the conclusion that Eiichiro Oda, the esteemed mangaka of One Piece, is probably taking another one of his creative breaks.

However, fans soon realized the real reason for the delay when thunderstorm alerts were issued in several parts of Japan. Super Typhoon Hinnamnor packs winds of up to 241 kilometers per hour (150 miles per hour) and is the strongest tropical cyclone of 2022.
Moreover, the warnings issued in Japan include extreme flooding which might threaten the lives of the country's citizens. Extremely powerful wind gusts and violent waves will also be witnessed. Meteorologists are referring to this typhoon as a textbook example of the strongest storms.
