"One Piece" Chapter 986 Theories

On Reddit, a user named Doom_shoot shared his theory about the upcoming chapter. He claimed that after Kiku killed Kanjuro, the scabbards learned that he is not a traitor but a good guy. Kanjuro allegedly faked his relationship with Orochi so he could earn Kaido's trust.

The Reddit user also believes that the Momonosuke suffering right now is just one of Kanjuro's masterpieces. It can be recalled that Kanjuro can draw things and make them alive. Kanjuro started to have a meaningful life once again when he joined the scabbards, the Reddit user speculated.

Another Reddit user named mashy787 said that the only thing that could hurt him is if the Manga would reveal that Sabo, Luffy's brother, is dead. Other fans dissed the editor's statement and believed that he is just hyping the upcoming chapter. "One Piece" is nearing its 1000th chapter with The Land Of Wano arc.
