Bartholomew Kuma’s sudden appearance on Egghead Island and his apparent intention to confront Saint Jaygarcia Saturn in the previous issue have left One Piece fans eagerly anticipating One Piece Chapter 1104. Devoted readers of Eiichiro Oda’s renowned manga series are scouring online sources for any credible spoilers about the upcoming release.
Regrettably, due to the Weekly Shonen Jump magazine being on hiatus this week, there are no confirmed spoilers available as of now. While leaks might emerge later in the hiatus rather than during the week of the One Piece Chapter 1104 release, this remains uncertain.
Nevertheless, certain anticipated elements and plot developments within One Piece Chapter 1104 are expected, albeit without verified spoilers. However, these anticipated events might not align with fans’ expectations, especially concerning the imminent clash between Kuma and Saturn.
One Piece Chapter 1104 Spoilers
Kuma Vs Saturn
In the upcoming One Piece Chapter 1104, the focus is expected to center on the intense confrontation between Kuma and Saturn. In the previous chapter, Saturn’s attempt to harm Bonney, even though she’s a child and possibly his daughter, led to Kuma’s swift intervention on Egghead Island. He shielded Bonney from Saturn’s intended execution, taking the blow upon himself and then directed his wrath towards Saturn, charging up a powerful Haki-coated punch.
It’s highly anticipated that this powerful punch will land in the forthcoming One Piece Chapter 1104. Kuma’s protective love for Bonney is profound, and anyone daring to harm her won’t escape his fury. He’s poised to confront Saturn and deliver a resounding beating. However, while fans might relish seeing Kuma take down Saturn, it’s crucial to remember that Saturn outmatches Kuma in strength and could easily overpower him if he chooses.
While witnessing Kuma’s attempt to defeat Saturn will be thrilling for fans, it’s essential to understand that Kuma isn’t equipped to be Saturn’s ultimate adversary. In the broader context, Saturn might cause further harm to Kuma, possibly leaving him critically injured or at the brink of death.
Kuma’s Willpower
In One Piece Chapter 1104, there’s a possibility that the storyline will delve into Kuma’s current mobility and what enables him to act. Some speculations suggest that Kuma might possess Vegapunk’s invented circuit for personality switching within him. However, this theory, while plausible, might not align with Oda’s narrative choices. This concept raises questions about Kuma’s past actions, such as why he didn’t use it earlier and how he remained a lifeless cyborg even after being rescued by the Revolutionary Army. Therefore, it’s unlikely that Kuma harbors such a circuit within him. His presence on Egghead Island likely stems from his profound love for his daughter, rather than any manipulation of his personality.
Despite having his willpower erased, Kuma’s immense affection for Bonney supersedes all. This echoes a previous incident in the story where Victoria Cindry, under Moria’s control through his Devil Fruit power, broke free from manipulation and displayed genuine emotions despite being deceased. Although Kuma is perceived as deceased, his resilient willpower persists and can overpower Vegapunk’s attempted erasure. Essentially, Kuma is essentially alive again, all due to the intense love he holds for his daughter. This aspect of the story might receive further exploration in One Piece Chapter 1104.
Luffy’s Gear 5 Transformation
One Piece Chapter 1104 is expected to shed light on Luffy’s situation. In the previous chapter, Luffy found himself immobilized after pushing his limits by using Gear 5 extensively. His need for sustenance to replenish his stamina was evident, but unexpectedly, an unknown benefactor appeared, offering him food. This mysterious figure might take center stage in One Piece 1104.
Speculation surrounds the identity of this savior, with two potential candidates—Kizaru, the Marine Admiral, known for his soft spot for individuals like Bonney and Sentomaru, or Caribou, who’s been absent for a while. Kizaru stands out as a potential helper due to his preference for minimal harm. Despite his interest in taking down Vegapunk, he might aid Luffy to ensure the safety of Bonney and Sentomaru.
Conversely, Caribou could be the one providing aid, driven by his desire to survive on the island and his impending role in this arc. Regardless of the benefactor’s identity, fans anticipate Luffy’s recovery and his entry into the battle against Saturn.
Upon recuperation, Luffy is anticipated to utilize the powers of Nika and join the confrontation. The clash between Luffy and Saturn is poised to be the arc’s pinnacle, eagerly awaited by fans. Luffy’s revival is expected by the chapter’s conclusion. Kuma, lacking the strength to defeat Saturn, might find himself in danger, prompting Luffy to intervene, potentially saving Kuma, Bonney, and launching the ultimate battle of the Egghead Island arc—a spectacle that fans eagerly anticipate.
As the Warrior of Liberation, Luffy faces an imperative test, as failure could result in the island’s demise. Defeating one of the Five Elders becomes pivotal to his cause, a defining moment in opposing the Celestial Dragons’ oppression.
However, fans will have to wait for the story’s progression due to an extended break for the New Year holidays. The next One Piece Chapter 1104 will not be available for three weeks. One Piece enthusiasts can access the series officially and for free through Viz Media, the Shonen Jump app, and Manga Plus. One Piece Chapter 1104 is scheduled for release on January 21, 2024.
