One Piece fans are eagerly waiting for Chapter 1143, and speculation is running wild about what could happen next. The Egghead Island arc has reached a critical moment, with major battles and shocking twists. Here’s a look at possible events that might unfold in the upcoming chapter.
One of the biggest fights in the current arc is between Luffy and Admiral Kizaru. In the last few chapters, Luffy has been using his Gear 5 form, but Kizaru has proven to be a tough opponent. Fans wonder if Luffy will finally defeat Kizaru in Chapter 1143 or if something unexpected will happen. Some theories suggest that Kizaru might not fight to the end and could retreat instead. Others believe that Luffy will land a decisive blow, forcing Kizaru out of the battle.
Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, one of the Gorosei, has shown his incredible power on Egghead Island. He has the ability to appear and disappear instantly, and his strange form hints at a dangerous Devil Fruit ability. Chapter 1143 might reveal more about his powers and his connection to Imu, the mysterious ruler of the world.

Many fans believe that Saturn has been holding back his true strength. If he decides to go all out, it could turn the tide of battle. Some even speculate that he might summon reinforcements from the World Government, making things even more difficult for Luffy and his allies.
Dr. Vegapunk has been at the center of this arc, and his knowledge is a major threat to the World Government. In the previous chapters, he was gravely injured, and his survival is uncertain. If he dies, the Straw Hats might lose their chance to learn important secrets about the Void Century and the mysterious One Piece treasure.
However, some fans think Vegapunk might have a backup plan. He could have hidden important information somewhere or entrusted it to someone like Robin or Franky. Chapter 1143 might give us a glimpse of what Vegapunk intended to do before the World Government tried to silence him.

Jewelry Bonney, the daughter of Bartholomew Kuma, has been playing a key role in the Egghead arc. She recently learned the truth about her father’s past, and this could push her to take revenge against the World Government. Some fans think she might unlock a hidden power related to her Devil Fruit.
Bonney could also team up with Luffy in a more active way, fighting against Saturn or helping the Straw Hats escape. Chapter 1143 might show how she plans to deal with the shocking truth she just learned.
The Straw Hats are in serious danger, with the Navy and the Gorosei closing in on them. Many fans believe that Chapter 1143 could set up their escape from Egghead Island. The arrival of the Blackbeard Pirates or another unexpected group might create an opportunity for them to flee.
No matter what happens, One Piece Chapter 1143 is expected to be full of action and surprises. Fans can’t wait to see how Oda continues to build the story and what shocking moments he has planned next.
