One Piece Chapter 1145 is set for release, but fans should prepare for a break immediately afterward. According to reliable leaks, Eiichiro Oda will be following his usual pattern of publishing three consecutive chapters before taking a planned break. This means that after Chapter 1145’s release, the manga will not appear in the April 14 issue of Weekly Shonen Jump.
This follows the same pattern as previous breaks, with Oda taking one week off after every three chapters. The last break occurred between Chapters 1142 and 1143, making it unsurprising that another one is scheduled. With this in mind, fans can expect the manga to resume normal publication shortly after the upcoming break.
One Piece’s April Release Schedule
Oda’s consistent three-on-one-off schedule suggests that One Piece Chapter 1146 will be released on April 21, followed by Chapter 1147 on April 28. However, the release schedule beyond this point is uncertain due to Japan’s Golden Week, which starts on April 29.

Golden Week is a national holiday period, during which Weekly Shonen Jump usually takes a publication break. If that happens, Chapter 1148 may be delayed until mid-May. Official announcements regarding this schedule are expected soon.
The Future of One Piece in 2025
One Piece has been serialized in Weekly Shonen Jump since July 1997 and continues to be one of the most popular manga worldwide. Toei Animation’s anime adaptation, which started in October 1999, is also returning from a six-month hiatus on April 5 with improved production quality.
Additionally, Netflix is working on both a live-action adaptation and an anime reboot produced by Wit Studio. With these developments, the One Piece franchise remains as strong as ever, even as Oda carefully manages his workload with scheduled breaks.
For now, fans can look forward to Chapter 1145 before the series takes its brief pause, ensuring that Oda maintains his health while delivering the best possible story.
