Title is "On Your Side" and it will contain chapters 1101 to 1110, ending with all the Elders showing up on Egghead and Dorry and Brogy reuniting with Luffy.
Honestly that would be such a troll thing to do. Have people who buy these from stores get really confused about why Krieg & Gin would suddenly be relevant to the story after Elders appearing. (Krieg will one shot Saturn)
It would be nice if Kizaru defects just so that he can protect the remaining satellites, Bonney and Kuma but it seems like they are heading to Elbaf so they will probably be safe there anyways.
I kinda wish he doesn't.
The dynamic of the 3 OG admirals is so good that I don't think they'll manage to "change", they're the previous generation, they already "failed". Akainu will keep trying to achieve justice brutally (and fail), Aokiji will keep trying to achieve his justice "indirectly" by infiltrating/helping BB (and will probably fail) and Kizaru will keep refusing to think for himself and indulge in his "cog" mentality until his inaction inevitably makes him lose everything (it already started with Kuma/VG dead & Sentomaru almost dead).
They're all 3 meant to be tragic and fail because their views were overly simplistic and flawed. While the newer generation of marines who grew with a less black/white vision of justice under Garp's guidance will finally come closer to any real justice.
I refuse to believe that he's not going to redeem himself in any way given that he did the nika dance, but after he literally killed vegapunk i think its clear it wont be a full switching sides lol
For real
People that refuse to recognize this is beyond my grasp.
For those people remind yourself this question:
When’s the last time you saw Akainu or Kuzan do the dance associated with the absolute worst fear of the world government: Nika, The Sun God?
The answer is never
But Kizaru does the dance in chapter and now on cover 109.
It's interesting how Gear 5th has already been featured on more volume covers than any other Gear, despite it only being in the story for a bit more than two years.
Magellans secret lineage reveal went hard as fuck can’t believe he turned impel down into a poison volcano, I wonder if that poison cloud is gonna head to Marie Jois!
... It's the most story significant gear. It's not just a mechanism for Luffy to succeed in a fight like 2, 3, and 4 were. It's something that has significance to the void century, to Kuma/Bonney's back story, and ultimately a big reason why Luffy will be public enemy number one for the world government.
Well, the flashback of Oden viewing the wonders of the world with Roger kinda was the same level of peak. A different one though, this is the best emotional flashback, while Oden was the best adventure flashback.
Definitely agree. Oden's flashback was top for me before Kuma's story dropped. I guess Kuma's story edges out for me because of we see another perspective of the Saboady incident coupled with a glimpse of the God valley incident along all the emotional story bits. If Kuma's story is 10/10 then Oden's would be 9.8/10.
The problem with ranking backstories is that there are literally too many high quality ones to rank without someone else being mad at your list. Like even if I put senor pinks backstory at 10, it doesn't mean I think it's bad at all, just that I personally like the others more. It all depends on the person.
The colors look different than usual but I'm not sure why. The base skin tones seem to be a bit darker than usual.
Love this cover, although the contrast between the cover and its contents is quite strong.
I think it’s because the light source is above, behind, and relatively far from them - because the light source is Luffy up at the top. So the other characters are more shaded. I think I it’s most apparent if you compare Kuma’s face with those beneath him.
Sight... And in Finland we are STILL stuck at vol 102 because the company who holds the rights in Japan hasn't granted them to our new Finnish publisher. I've heard they are really slow, but it has been over a year already... :(
Making me wonder, I’m assuming he didn’t know Nika was one of the things the government was hiding right? I’m assuming no one other than maybe the fleet admirals know about
Oda has been doing digitally coloring for like 6 or 7 years
They always post the creation of the cover in the Ipad (yes Oda uses a Ipad and not a digital drawing tablet with a computer)
Thank goodness that Oda made this volume cover more wholesome. I saw his process video and it was initially Kuma running, Bonney crying and Saturn lurking in the background.
Brilliant cover!! Maybe one of my favorites! Is the town name just above Kuma's head significant at all? It doesn't ring any bells but I am kinda dumb ngl
The Nika the worst thing that happened in the story by far. He appears everywhere and all the time. Everything else comes second. Everything is all about the bastard Nika. Not to mention that the lore and his introduction is as sloppy as fuck ...
Title is "On Your Side" and it will contain chapters 1101 to 1110, ending with all the Elders showing up on Egghead and Dorry and Brogy reuniting with Luffy.
shit the next volume cover would be rad af then
I'm betting it's the Elders.
Nah, I mean Krieg and Gin are back so it’s just obvious which characters are more important.
Honestly that would be such a troll thing to do. Have people who buy these from stores get really confused about why Krieg & Gin would suddenly be relevant to the story after Elders appearing. (Krieg will one shot Saturn)
I mean he is the strongest man ever so it would be logic
You think? I was thinking it’d be kaku and cracker
the real main characters of one piece
The 5 elders with Gear 5 Luffy, Dorry and Brogy. And in middle of the page is TV screen of Vegapunk telling his message.
Take my money
This sounds good to me.
Y E S
So we might be done with this arc even sooner than expected; figured Volume 110 is going to be the end.
Yeah, I'd say 110 is going to be the last full Egghead volume. It might spend the first few of 111 wrapping up, but that one should be mostly Elbaf.
yes like Wano with the 104th volume
> 1101 to 1101 Chapters 13 to 14? I thought we were further along than that.
01010100 01100001 01101011 01100101 00100000 01101101 01111001 00100000 01100100 01100001 01101101 01101110 00100000 01110101 01110000 01110110 01101111 01110100 01100101 00001010
Seeing Kizaru happily dancing seems so wholesome
It kinda hurts me, ngl. I want him to switch sides so bad.
It would be nice if Kizaru defects just so that he can protect the remaining satellites, Bonney and Kuma but it seems like they are heading to Elbaf so they will probably be safe there anyways.
I kinda wish he doesn't. The dynamic of the 3 OG admirals is so good that I don't think they'll manage to "change", they're the previous generation, they already "failed".

I've been hoping it's a Snape situation and he's a Revo plant. But we'll see.
Trust the plan
Him being part of the dance has some serious implications
For real People that refuse to recognize this is beyond my grasp. For those people remind yourself this question: When’s the last time you saw Akainu or Kuzan do the dance associated with the absolute worst fear of the world government: Nika, The Sun God? The answer is never But Kizaru does the dance in chapter and now on cover 109.
He also can literally be the "light" of luffy's "sun" and even has the title "yellow monkey"
It's interesting how Gear 5th has already been featured on more volume covers than any other Gear, despite it only being in the story for a bit more than two years.
Probably because it has more narative significance outside of being a power buff for Luffy
Wdym 2 years? Wano ended like, last month
It ended 10 years ago. Wake up, we're already 2032. The final arc is still ongoing with no end in sight.
I cried like hell at Explosive D. Iarrhea's backstory, Oda's still got it
Magellans secret lineage reveal went hard as fuck can’t believe he turned impel down into a poison volcano, I wonder if that poison cloud is gonna head to Marie Jois!
Wano ended 2022 in the manga. Also, Wano ended in December of last year in the anime. Time flies, doesn't it?
Twas a joke about how time seems to fly by
I’m sorry 2 YEARS!
What?! Time please staph, I need a break
Gear 1st got more
... It's the most story significant gear. It's not just a mechanism for Luffy to succeed in a fight like 2, 3, and 4 were. It's something that has significance to the void century, to Kuma/Bonney's back story, and ultimately a big reason why Luffy will be public enemy number one for the world government.
It makes you wanna smile.😆
Not gonna lie I smile right before reading your comment
Probably because it looks good unlike gear 4
Nah Snakeman is AWESOME
Awesome but ugly as hell
Straight lies, it looks awesome too
[average Gear 4 fan](https://petorugs.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Gear-4-Tankman-All-Of-Luffys-Gears-Ranked.jpg) vs [average Gear 5 enjoyer](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/1e/19/a6/1e19a6638b13bdf3315ab334c7e2a1b6.jpg)
I beg to [differ](https://pin.it/291joLr5H)
Love the shading. It's like Luffy legitimately is the sun shining down on all of them.
One of the best volume covers for one of the best flashbacks of the story.
>one of the best flashbacks of the story. The best flashback of the story.
Well, the flashback of Oden viewing the wonders of the world with Roger kinda was the same level of peak. A different one though, this is the best emotional flashback, while Oden was the best adventure flashback.
Definitely agree. Oden's flashback was top for me before Kuma's story dropped. I guess Kuma's story edges out for me because of we see another perspective of the Saboady incident coupled with a glimpse of the God valley incident along all the emotional story bits. If Kuma's story is 10/10 then Oden's would be 9.8/10.
Robin and Law enter
Law and Robin are next after Kuma and Oden for me. 1. Kuma 2. Oden 3. Law 4. Robin 5. Brook/Chopper 6. Doflamingo 7. Bigmom and so on.
you're right, Big mom ate the backstories of Zoro, Luffy, Sanji, Nami, Senor Pink, Fisher Tiger, Calgara and Montblanc Norland, Kyros
The problem with ranking backstories is that there are literally too many high quality ones to rank without someone else being mad at your list. Like even if I put senor pinks backstory at 10, it doesn't mean I think it's bad at all, just that I personally like the others more. It all depends on the person.
Yeah you're right I was just fooling around my bro I love you
I love the colors and despite the sad backstory, seeing this cover makes me feel happy. so far the egghead volume covers have been my favorites
Kizaru doing the Nika dance is so cool, I hope we get some info on his thoughts after things calm down a little
Smiling Kizaru feel weird. In a good sense, but still
The colors look different than usual but I'm not sure why. The base skin tones seem to be a bit darker than usual. Love this cover, although the contrast between the cover and its contents is quite strong.
I think it’s because the light source is above, behind, and relatively far from them - because the light source is Luffy up at the top. So the other characters are more shaded. I think I it’s most apparent if you compare Kuma’s face with those beneath him.
Awww, this volume must contain a wholesome family story where daddy and his girl live happily together :)
I really like that it looks like all of them are supporting each other’s arms just for the sake of supporting Bonney! It’s a very heart-warning cover.
Well that was fucking quick
Been liking Kizaru more and more, I'm really intrigued by what Odas has cooking for the admirals
Gorgeous. Love Kizaru doing the Nika dance (and his drip), makes everything that happens all the more tragic.
OMG KIZARU 😭😭😭
As beautiful as it is heart-breaking ;__;
Can I Cry ?
Kizaru dancing without a care hurts
Drums Of Liberation Ranked (best performers): 1. Kizaru 2. Vegapunk 3. Sentomaru 4. Luffy
Maybe in the cover, but my number 1 Nika dancing performer overall still "Skypea wolf n. 2"
Zuneshia: *I Can Hear The Drums Of Liberation!!!* The Wolf: ***But, Can You Dance Though?***
That is an amazing cover!!!
Has the land of Canagadi ever been mentioned before or is it a new location?
Simply a great cover, Kuma is our hero. Instead Saturn doesn't deserve a cover, not for the Kuma flashback.
Top 10 Cover
This is such a beautiful chapter cover.
Sight... And in Finland we are STILL stuck at vol 102 because the company who holds the rights in Japan hasn't granted them to our new Finnish publisher. I've heard they are really slow, but it has been over a year already... :(
Dondon to to dondon to to! Looking forward to Kizaru's change of heart 🥰🤣🫡✌️
Do it Kizaru, DO IT!
Surely nika-dance-kizaru can't remain an enemy for many more chapters right?
Why tf kizaru doing the nika dance ??? Is oda conforming that kizaru is gonna turn sides ?
He was doing the Nika dance in the flashback chapter
it is only confirming that he wants to. but will he actually do it ?
Making me wonder, I’m assuming he didn’t know Nika was one of the things the government was hiding right? I’m assuming no one other than maybe the fleet admirals know about
Some how knew who would Oneshot him in the future
this is magnificent. when will they publish it ?
July 4
Ok this is fucking beautiful
gonna cry
Is this digitally colored? The colors seem abnormally bright to me and Oda seems to have been experimenting more with digital coloring lately.
Oda has been doing digitally coloring for like 6 or 7 years They always post the creation of the cover in the Ipad (yes Oda uses a Ipad and not a digital drawing tablet with a computer)
No he didn't, he only decides the image and color compositions digitally. The actual drawing and coloring is done on paper.
Wonderful... Kumachiiiiiiiiiiiiii
So his right knee and arm are both up on the same side interesting
Kizaru doing joyboy pose lol
Everyone is Nika. Mfs are cooking Oda. 😅
Bout to be the "everyone gets a nine tails cloak" energy..
Art
Kizaru is doing the Nika dance…. That’s BIG NEWS! as we may see Kizaru switch sides or simply “let the straw hats go” or some other traitorous action.
Bro was doing it in the Kuma flashback when we got the chapter months ago lol
Yeah, it’s setting the trend and it’s not just a one off.
Crying already
Nice!
I need this as a wallpaper asap! It's marvellous!
I’m glad Stussy was included
no I don't like this succubus
Thank goodness that Oda made this volume cover more wholesome. I saw his process video and it was initially Kuma running, Bonney crying and Saturn lurking in the background.
Such a pleasure to see him smile 💙
Brilliant cover!! Maybe one of my favorites! Is the town name just above Kuma's head significant at all? It doesn't ring any bells but I am kinda dumb ngl
That's just part of the background map used in all the covers so far
ahhhh ty mate
The Gorosei acknowledging Kizaru doing the Nika dance is going to force him to swap sides or get executed
This might be my favorite so far I’m ngl
Vegapunk looks like he snorted 10.000 tonnes of cocaine 💀💀💀💀
this is a beautiful cover
This cover being unveiled simultaneously with Chapter 1118 is remarkable
Yall think bonny is related to shanks on hair color alone?
I'm sure she got her hair color from Ginny
Look at all those lovely smiles on everyone! Especially Kuma! You'd think he's living the life if you just looked at his face there!
This one will hurt like a motherfucker
I can't😭😭😭😭
What a wholesome cover. Of a volume that contains some of the most fucked up parts of the story to date.
Such and bright and colorful cover. So damn wholesome
Awesome cover
Shout out to everyone who's gonna get into this thinking it's a feel good volume
Perfect cover to show a OP fan from like even 10 years ago, "hey look at this!"
Pain
Oda cooking a Kizaru redemption arc... Kuzan here would make more sense?
Kuzan would feel pretty random. Kizaru actually did the dance with them in Kuma's flashback.
They all look so happy and free
stussy should get to dance to :(
Kumas eyes were glasses this whole time?
wow, what a wholesome looking book! im sure nothing bad will happen to any of these characters
Is this the final chapters of egghead?
This a wholesome cover, glad Oda didn't include saturn in this one for he would ruin the moment
What a wholesome cover You would never guess that it contains >!the end of Kuma's free will and Vega Punk's death!<
Beautiful
Stussy out here looking like a proud daughter
Thats just fucking wholesome.
Yo! This maybe one of my favorites straight up. I love everything about this cover!
Absolutely gorgeous cover, can't wait to add this to my collection in a year
I like the feels this volume gives out. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|heart_eyes)![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|hug)
Everyone's doing the nika pose except for the non humans
Lol kizaru up there pretending he didn't kill vegapunk . Folded sentomaru and attempted to kill bonney 😭
Great cover but seeing Kizaru dance still seems wrong
Salt in the wound to have Borsalino Nika dancing on the cover after he let us down
This bum Kizaru smh
The Nika the worst thing that happened in the story by far. He appears everywhere and all the time. Everything else comes second. Everything is all about the bastard Nika. Not to mention that the lore and his introduction is as sloppy as fuck ...
It’s actually not that bad
Anyone else see an almost swastika?
Yeah the Nika dance is a swastika.
Is that Connie in the back of Stussy?
Just random scientists from the island dancing; you can see another in the middle of the page behind Oda's name
