Chapter 1089 recap
One Piece chapter 1089 began with a focus on the series’ world, showing different islands and people reacting to the news about Luffy and Garp, as well as a massive earthquake. Fans were then shown that the area where Lulusia Kingdom once was is now just a massive hole in the sea, eerily similar to what was once seen at Enies Lobby.
The chapter then shifted focus to Egghead Island, where the Marine forces were broken down. Apparently, over 100 ships (including 20 massive battleships), 30,000 Marine soldiers, 9 Vice Admirals, Admiral Kizaru, and Saint Jaygarcia Saturn are spearheading the Egghead assault.
Kizaru was seen speaking with Sentomaru, essentially telling him that there’s nothing he can do to protect Vegapunk and Sentomaru from their Void Century research crimes.
Saint Jaygarcia Saturn was then given a rundown of the current situation before Vegapunk York contacted the other Gorosei at Mariejois. Kizaru and Saturn listened in as a new deal was struck between York and the Gorosei, with the former providing Mother Flame weapons in exchange for the latter protecting her and making her a Celestial Dragon.
The issue ended by revealing that she was forced to make the call by the reunited and ready-to-escape Straw Hats.
What to expect (speculative)
One Piece chapter 1090 is expected to pick up with a continued focus on the Straw Hats, outlining what their escape plan is. While a short flashback explaining how they all reunited is possible, it’s somewhat unlikely, considering that their escape attempt is now set to start. If such a flashback is shown, it’ll likely be very brief and summative rather than going into the details of each Straw Hat’s actions.
One Piece chapter 1090 will also likely see the Straw Hats prepare to begin their escape plan. While some sort of hiccup is likely to occur in the early stages, fans likely won’t see that in the upcoming issue due to their plan likely not actually starting immediately.
