What happened in the last episode?
One Piece Special Episode 4 was a retelling of the most iconic moments Shanks has been a part of in the franchise, as told by Koby and Makino. Koby remembered the time Shanks saved him from Akainu during the Marineford war, as well as how he single-handedly ended the conflict. The pink-haired man lamented that he would one day have to fight Luffy and Shanks, as this is his duty.
While Koby remembered the war, Makino was reminiscing about Shanks’ influence on Luffy and the Foosha Village. The young mother remembered the time when the Red Hair Pirates fought a group of bandits to save Luffy. She also recalled how Shanks lost his arm to rescue Luffy from the Lord of the Coast.
What to expect from One Piece Episode 1031?
Kaido and Big Mom are angrier than ever after being outsmarted and overpowered by the Worst Generation. Luffy finally has access to his Advanced Conqueror Haki, which means Kaido is starting to feel the Straw Hat Captain’s attacks. Their real battle is just about to commence, as it seems Kaido is finally starting to see Luffy as a threat.
However, fans have to remember that Big Mom is also a participant in this battle, and she is livid due to Kid and Killer’s actions. She almost drowned after being pushed off Onigashima’s roof, so Big Mom's not pulling her punches anymore, no matter who her opponent is.
Sadly, Nami and her group will be the ones unfortunate enough to encounter the Yonko this time around. However, not everything is lost, as the fight could mean Nami will finally obtain one of her biggest powerups in the franchise. Fans of the manga have been waiting to see this moment be animated for a while, and One Piece Episode 1031 may finally bring it to life.
The preview of One Piece Episode 1031 also shows Kanjuro running around the castle. Many people will remember that he is still searching for Momonosuke to finally end the Kozuki bloodline before his death. Regardless of what happens in this upcoming episode, fans of the series are happy that One Piece is finally returning to the Land of Wano.
