In addition to the Spoiler information that has been revealed before, the following are the detailed developments appearing in the manga One Piece chapter 1048.
New chapter title: “20 years”.
In the cover, Brulee is telling Cracker that the people on Chocolate Island could be Ichiji and Reiju. Momonosuke was still trying to tell Luffy to stop punching. Momo now recalled Toki’s words from the previous chapter that he would restore the Kozuki clan in 20 years. He shouted loudly and tried to push Onigashima out of range of the punch.
Kaido is now looking towards Luffy’s giant punch. Kaido started spewing fire from his mouth, flames from Kaido’s mouth enveloped him, his dragon form was also bigger than before. While in this form, Kaido melted the horn of the island’s skull.
Kaido: “Fire Dragon”
Luffy let go of the arm holding Kaido and was about to punch him. Kaido concentrated the heat in his mouth and directed it towards Luffy.
Kaido: “Long Khoi!”
Luffy recalls Hyogoro’s words about Ryuo.
Luffy: “The old man showed me how to attack without touching you! This blow will send you straight to hell!”
Luffy punches Kaido.
Luffy: “Bajrang Gun”
Kaido grabbed Luffy’s punch with his mouth: “Fire Eight Trigrams”
Both attacks didn’t touch each other, black lightning bolts and a huge explosion appeared in mid-air. Luffy used his left hand to block the wind pressure in front of him. The story frame zooms in closer and you can see that the two attacks have yet to touch each other.
The scene changes to the inside of the castle, apparently because of Zunesha’s flood causing Usopp to be separated from Kinemon and Kiku. By this time, Usopp had found Kinemon and Kiku.
Usopp called Kinemon and tried to check on him. The Samurai now looked up at the sky, where Luffy and Kaido’s fight took place, all started cheering for Luffy.
Kawamatsu began to remember the time 20 years ago, when Oden was executed and Jiu Hong Bao ran away from the execution platform. That was also the time when Cuu Hong Bao was being hunted down. The entire Nine Hong Bao cried as they tried to run towards Oden castle.
Orochi said to Kaido: “The Samurai can only go to Kuri!”
Kaido was thinking about the reason when Orochi continued: “Heir! They’re trying to protect that brat Momonosuke!”
Kaido: “So he’s got a kid… I’ll take care of this!”
The people of Wano stood in the way of Kaido, he attacked the people and headed towards the castle.
The castle was on fire and everything happened as we saw in chapter 973.
Orochi now orders to attack anyone who dares to oppose the Shogun. Orochi asked about Toki’s situation. Kaido’s soldiers confirm that Toki died in Bakura town and that she was the only one who escaped from the castle. After Oden’s death, the lords regrouped and fought against Kaido. Consists of Shimotsuki Yasuie, Shimotsuki Ushimaru, Uzuki Tempura and Fugetsu Omusubi.
Kaido and Orochi stood before them and said, “Lords, choose! Goods or anti? Make Wano better or choose death?”
The Samurai finished all at once, Kaido transformed into his dragon form and the battle began. But then the results were quickly decided. Orochi looked at the defeated Samurai and began to laugh at them. Kaido’s subordinates began to force the healthy villagers to make weapons for them. The people of Wano cried out as their loved one was taken away.
Then they realized the river was polluted and undrinkable. Without water they could not grow crops or have food, so they were forced to work for Kaido. The Samurai advised each other to wait patiently and believe what Toki said about the future 20 years later. After some time Orochi started to throw the spoiled Smile fruit into the town of Ebisu.
Returning to the present, Orochi, whose body was on fire, approached Hiyori.
Denjiro appeared to cover Hiyori and cut off Orochi’s head with his sword.
At this time in Hoa Do the sky lanterns are being released high. Wishes like “Orochi disappear” and “I want to get out of this hell” are written on them. Up in the sky, Kaido and Luffy’s attack still hadn’t stopped, the lightning bolts and explosions were still there.
End of chapter, next week still has a new chapter.
