One Piece Chapter 1043 Release Date, Time, & Spoilers

One Piece Chapter 1043 is close to its official release, and here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming manga chapter.

One Piece is finally back to Luffy and Kaido’s fight, but things aren’t going how fans expected. In the previous chapter, we saw the CP0 boss distracting Luffy from the battle. As a result, Kaido lands a powerful attack on the Straw Hat Pirate captain. After that, we see Luffy on the ground, whereas Kaido is heartbroken with the recent circumstances, especially how Luffy’s expressions were similar to Oden’s.

Now, every One Piece fan wants to know how Luffy would get back to his feet to fight Kaido. Well, we’d have to wait until next week for the answer, but some leaks tease some significant events for the next chapter.

One Piece Chapter 1043 Spoilers

According to the latest leaks, Chapter 1043 of One Piece is titled “We will die together.” The early spoilers suggest that the chapter’s cover features Oven arriving at Whole Cake Island.

Shockingly, the spoilers state that Kaido declares himself as the winner in his fight against Luffy. Kid and Law step up to fight, and Kaido asks Momo to give up. Momo also thinks of giving up, but Yamato asks him to keep fighting, stating that they should all die together.

Luffy Might Truly be Joy Boy

After that, we cut back to Zunisha and Momo’s conversation. Zunisha says to Momo that he heard the “drums of liberation” after 800 years. Zunisha then says that “Joy Boy has come back.”

Finally, we see Luffy’s body melting, and the bubble near him says, “Nika,” implying to the Sun God. It’s evident that Zunisha here is talking about Luffy, meaning our beloved straw hat pirate captain is the reincarnation of Joy Boy.

It’s important to note that these are the early spoilers, and we’ll learn more about the events when the official chapter comes out this weekend.
