The adventures on Egghead Island will soon continue with the upcoming release of One Piece chapter 1063. Despite the delay that occurred with the Weekly Shonen Jump last week, this new chapter will be released as per schedule, and features Luffy and his friends returning with more information about the enigmatic Vegapunk.

In the last chapter, fans saw the Straw Hat crew face one of six different Vegapunks that inhabit Egghead Island, Lilith. On another part of the island, Luffy, Bonney, Jinbe, and Chopper, found another version of the scientist, Atlas. One Piece chapter 1063 is almost certain to continue this storyline and elaborate upon the mysteries revolving around Vegapunk.

During chapter 1062, fans got a first glimpse of Vegapunk’s Satellites’ personalities and motivations. Lilith is moved by money, as the World Government does not give them enough funds for their research. Atlas loves fighting and reacts violently when someone contradicts her. However, neither the rest of the Satellites nor the original doctor have been revealed as yet.

One Piece chapter 1063 may be the one to introduce the rest of the Vegapunk family, although it is unlikely that we will meet the original scientist until later in the arc. We may have the opportunity to learn more about the origins of the alternate versions of the doctor. Fans could also be informed as to why Vegapunk Shaka is interested in the Straw Hats.

Another possibility is that One Piece chapter 1063 will delve deeper into the motives behind the World Government’s mission to kill Vegapunk. The scientist has been one of the best assets for the World Nobles for years, meaning that he could have possibly betrayed them. Zoro also seemed interested in talking to the doctor, and his motives could be revealed in this upcoming chapter.

One Piece chapter 1062 began with the Straw Hat crew talking to Vegapunk Lilith. The woman revealed to them that she was not the original scientist, just one of the Satellites created to keep Egghead Island safe. Lilith tried to rob the Straw Hats but was stopped by another Vegapunk, Shaka, who told her to be careful around Zoro and Robin.

On another part of the island, Bonney revealed to Luffy’s team that Vegapunk turned her father into the android Kuma. The group eventually emerged from the sewers and was fascinated by everything they saw. They encountered another Vegapunk, Atlas, who was extremely violent.

Far from there, the members of the CP0 were seen talking about a mission to kill Vegapunk.

Don't miss out on chapter 1063, dropping on October 17, 2022.
