One Piece chapter 1136 is set to release on Monday, January 20, 2025 at 12AM JST according to the official MANGA Plus website. As “Shanks” and his coconspirator make their way through Aurust Castle, it seems likely that chapter 1136 will at least build toward Luffy clashing with them, if not actually begin the bout.
However, verifiable spoilers for the upcoming One Piece chapter 1136 are unfortunately unavailable as of this article’s writing. Although the series does have an active leaker community, these spoilers are typically released closer to the middle of the release week rather than early on.
What fans do have is reliable, official release information directly from the source via Shueisha’s official free-to-read MANGA Plus platform. In addition, there are a few major story beats and developments fans can most likely expect from One Piece chapter 1136 discussed below.

Where to read One Piece chapter 1136
There are three major official and legal ways of reading the upcoming installment, save for buying the corresponding compilation volume when it’s made available. Viz Media’s official website and Shueisha’s MANGA Plus service are both free, but only offer the first and latest three issues in a series. Shueisha’s Shonen Jump+ app gives full access to select titles (including One Piece), but via a monthly subscription service which is relatively inexpensive.
One Piece chapter 1135 recap
One Piece chapter 1135 began with Saul introducing the giant owl in the Owl Library as Biblo, its chief librarian. He also has the ability to enlarge the books that enter to Giant-appropriate sizes, which Lilith theorizes is due to the Grow-Grow Fruit. As Robin soaks in the nostalgia, focus shifts to Usopp and Luffy playing with some Giant children. However, they’re not as tough as the two wanted, which leaves them relatively disappointed.
However, at that moment, Luffy is suddenly attacked by someone, revealed to be Colon. He swings his sword thinking he has Luffy, but it breaks against the Yonko’s Advanced Conqueror’s Haki. Luffy then jumps above Colon and attacks him, which he dodges. Colon is thrilled to see how strong Luffy is as Ripley then scolds him for causing trouble, but compliments his swing. He then calls her his mother, which she confirms as true.
She says she’s informally married to his father, a human pirate, because he was too worried about being the only one aging to make it formal. Luffy and co then part ways with Robin and the others, as the Straw Hats missing Elbaphian outfits get them from Gerd. Meanwhile, “Shanks” and his ally attack some Giants and demand to know where Loki is. The issue ends with Jarul appearing at Luffy and co’s party, but with a sword inexplicably running through his head.
What to expect from One Piece chapter 1136 (speculative)
One Piece chapter 1136 should open up with a continued focus on Luffy and co at the feast considering both “Shanks” and his ally’s latest move, and Jarul’s arrival. The issue should begin building to these plotlines clashing, especially since the castle they arrived in is in the village where the feast is being held.
Chapter 1136 should also give additional focus to Elbaph’s apparent enemies as they move through the castle. This should reveal or at least tease some significant information on “Shanks” which should speak to who he is and his relation to the fan-favorite Yonko. The issue should end with Luffy sensing some strong presences as the invaders fight their way out of the castle.
