One Piece Chapter 959 spoilers talk about Straw Hats' escape & Oden's past

This story is being continuously updated…. New updates are being added at the bottom…..

This One Piece article is based on spoilers. Only those interested in spoilers should take a read.

Original story (from Oct 17) follows:

After an excruciating day of waiting, spoilers of One Piece chapter 959 finally appear. No initial translations are leaked yet, but the raw scans from the manga hints the current condition of the Straw hats and their allies.

The title for this chapter is “Samurai”. The cover shows Bege and Chiffon in Dressrosa. A twitter post unveils raw scans with the Straw hats in samurai armors, an inconsolable Kinemon, and a silhouette of a samurai with two swords on his waist.

Straw Hats’ Surprise Attack?

The image with the Straw hats in samurai armors infers their safety and their battle readiness. It is difficult to conclude for now whether they are in Onigashima, the Flower Capital or somewhere else.

One thing’s for sure, the Straw hats and most probably including the 4,000 men are safe. There is no appearance from Law as of the moment, but we can still hope for it as more spoilers come to light.

Their safety suggests that they tricked Orochi into believing that they are dead. This would give them an advantage for the upcoming war.

More Details on the Straw hats

On Reddit, a post shares more details about the Straw hats. It turns out Inurashi gave the Straw hats their samurai armors. After a meeting with everyone, Usopp asked that the Sunny be taken to the port. Robin got an intel that the weather in Onigashima is winter.

Nami, Carrot and the samurai discuss what the date would be during full moon. Carrot and the other Minks may be planning to enter sulong mode when the situation calls for it.

Momo and the others are still clueless of what happened

The second image exhibits a similar scene with Momo’s party from the previous chapter. It seems like no one has shown up to give them good news so far. Or maybe in the first image the Straw hats revealed themselves to Momo and the others and that’s when they will be consoled.

A Mysterious Samurai

An earlier thread on twitter raised questions as to who the samurai in silhouette is? It certainly looks like Oden. The shape of Oden’s head accessory matches that of the mysterious samurai in the image. The image also has two katanas on his waist that looks similar to Enma and Ame no Habakiri.

A Reddit post suggests that it was a flashback of Oden. It makes sense, since Zoro already has the Enma and the Ame no Habakiri is in Tengu’s possession. We should expect updates and clarification on details about these spoilers and future spoilers.
