With the latest developments in One Piece chapter 1037, it's evident that the battle in Wano is just getting started. The World Government, the forgotten legends, and the navy have all entered the scene.
Not long ago, the swift defeat of Kaido's top two executives, King Inferno and Queen Plague, despite their grand introduction and high bounties over 1 billion Beli, left many One Piece readers feeling uneasy. Some believe that Oda is rushing, instead of providing more development for the characters and creating more intense battles, Zoro and Sanji quickly take down their opponents. Combined with the rapid defeat of the Tobi Roppo earlier, this has caused disappointment among many fans. Opinions about Oda being in a hurry, shortening the content to conclude the story have been widely discussed.
However, some discerning readers still believe that the Wano battle is not just a clash between Luffy's alliance and the Beast Pirates but a conflict involving various forces. This has somewhat become a reality as the first chapter of 2022, One Piece chapter 1037, indicates that the World Government, the Five Elder Stars, forgotten legends, and possibly other forces are ready to join the battle in Wano. This means that the clash between Luffy's alliance and the Beast Pirates, especially King and Queen, needs to be resolved quickly to make way for a new, larger-scale battle. Kaido stands firm, Big Mom remains formidable, the World Government, a special Devil Fruit, and the forgotten legends' warships will be the next things to be enjoyed in Wano.
As Oda promised, Wano is indeed a battle with a much larger scale, nature, and major turning points compared to the overall navy battle. Currently, the highly anticipated information from One Piece chapter 1037 is still being continuously updated by us. The appearance of the forgotten legends, the secret Devil Fruit mentioned by the Five Elder Stars, is likely the next turning point to elevate the Wano battle, where the clash of monsters from pirates, navy, World Government, CP0, forgotten legends, and possibly other Yonko like Red-Haired Shanks and Blackbeard will take place.
Overall, witnessing the first information of One Piece chapter 1037, we somewhat understand why the battles between the Straw Hat Crew, between Zoro, Sanji, and King and Queen should end early to pave the way for a new epic clash, don't we? Perhaps we have misunderstood Oda; he is not rushing but is accelerating the pace of Wano, resolving minor issues to focus on a larger battle. What do you think about this?
