One Piece is currently in its Elbaf Arc, and fans know that this particular story arc is getting more exciting with each passing chapter.

What they did not know, however, was how massive the scale of this arc is going to be, and at the same time, how intense it will turn out to be. In general, the Final Saga of One Piece has picked up the pace massively, and things are moving faster than ever before. That is why fans are desperate for the plot to progress further, and right now, all eyes are on One Piece chapter 1134.

After a heartfelt reunion that was delivered in the previous chapter of One Piece, fans know that the upcoming chapter is going to be sensational, to say the least. Unfortunately, it has now officially been announced that One Piece chapter 1134 is facing a delay, and the chapter is not going to be released for quite some time.

One Piece Chapter 1134 Release Is Delayed

One Piece Has Just Returned From Break

Oda Has Officially Taken Another Break

One Piece fans have endured quite a horrific break schedule over the course of the last month or so. At first, it was announced by Oda that he was going on a 2-week break, which meant that fans had to wait 3 weeks for a One Piece chapter and this was largely down to his trip to South Africa, where the second season of One Piece Live Action is being shot. Oda visiting South Africa simply meant that he needed to put a break on his own story and help out with the live action in whichever way he could.

Having endured the 3-week wait, fans were hoping for some consistency in regards to how One Piece would continue from here onwards. Unfortunately, Oda’s health took a massive hit immediately after, and fans were extremely worried due to reports of him having been hospitalized. This meant that One Piece was going on another 2-week break, and, once again, readers had to wait 3 weeks for another chapter to drop. Thankfully, it was made clear immediately that Oda recovered quickly and that One Piece was going to return. Fans got two chapters in succession following this event, and now, it has officially been announced that One Piece is going on yet another break. As to why Oda is taking a break right now, the cause remains unknown.

Fans need to be considerate of the fact that Oda was recently hospitalized and that he isn’t going to be able to drop multiple chapters in a single go. Furthermore, fans should also make peace with the fact that they will get less One Piece moving forward. Oda has been putting out One Piece for 25 years now and this work would often see him sleep only 3 hours a day and not eat for multiple days in a row at the same time, takes its toll on him. It is no surprise to hear that mangaka suffer from chronic health conditions, because this lifestyle is incredibly stress-inducing and exhausting. Oda needs to prioritize his health, and even though he does everything he can do, it would bode well for him if he took more breaks and fans need to make their peace with that.

In fact, One Piece taking more breaks is actually good for the fans, if anything. This ensures that One Piece actually lasts even longer and that Oda is healthy as well, which in turn means that he can deliver chapters of the highest quality.

As far as One Piece chapter 1134’s release goes, fans know that they have a 2-week wait ahead of themselves. While One Piece would have returned originally on December 15th, now, the next chapter is expected to drop on December 22, 2024.

What Could Happen In One Piece 1134?

The Exploration Of Elbaf Library Begins

One Piece chapter 1134, which will hit in 2 weeks’ time, is going to be absolutely incredible, to say the least. The previous chapter of the story gave fans a touching reunion between Nico Robin and Saul. It was incredible and it certainly elevated Nico Robin’s flashback to the next level.

In a year that was packed with incredible chapters by Oda, this chapter is quite easily the best for the vast majority of the fandom, and that just goes to show how great One Piece has been in 2024.

As far as One Piece chapter 1134 goes, fans know that they have a lot of exciting stuff to look forward to. Following this heartfelt reunion, fans could see major revelations being made by Saul pertaining to the Void Century. These revelations are going to affect the plot of One Piece in massive ways and potentially even set up the next bad guy in Elbaf. Furthermore, secrets about the Void Century could mean that the World Government starts moving into action sooner rather than later, and that certainly has fans excited.

Furthermore, One Piece chapter 1134 could also focus on the mystery man in Elbaf whose importance appears to be paramount, but the identity of whom remains unknown at this point in time. Fans could also see the other major players who are gunning for the One Piece make a major move, and, as has been made clear by Oda in the past, the Final Saga is where the story focuses on multiple players and not just the straw hat Pirates. All things taken into consideration, the next few chapters of One Piece are going to be sensational, and hopefully, the series also enjoys a bit of consistency moving forward.

One Piece Fans Brace For A Tough Release Schedule

Unfortunately, One Piece chapter 1134 is going to be followed by yet another break. This is because the holiday period is almost upon the fans, and usually, this is the most exhausting break period for the readers because all manga go on break often. Fans will likely see another break following the release of One Piece chapter 1134, and then another break following the release of One Piece chapter 1135. It is only after One Piece after 1135 that fans will say some consistency from the series, which means that a difficult wait lies ahead of them. But, depending on how massive the upcoming chapters are going to be, fans are excited nonetheless. Hopefully, Oda will use this time to rest properly and recharge himself, and, at the same time, deliver some of the most phenomenal content, marking the end of 2024 and the beginning of 2025 In some style.

With Elbaf far from its peak, fans know that more exciting events are going to follow soon in the story, and that what they have seen up until now in this country is only the tip of the iceberg. Hopefully, One Piece’s next few chapters are going to live up to the expectations of the fans, which Oda often surpasses.
