'One Piece' Chapter 974 Scans Reveal The Traitor’s Identity

"One Piece" Chapter 974 is just a few days away from its official release. The previous chapter of the manga revealed the true identities of Kyoshiro and Komurusaki. The latest set of leaked scans offers more revelations, including the traitor, whom Kaido mentioned in the previous chapters of the popular manga series

"One Piece" Chapter 974: More Revelations

Thanks to the most recent set of leaked images, fans now have an idea of what could happen in the upcoming chapter of the popular manga series. It looks like Oda has prepared a series of exciting revelations about key characters in "One Piece." In the upcoming episode, the leaks claim that Kanjuro would reveal his true identity.

For the uninitiated, Kanjuro is one of the Akazaya Nine and a trusted vassal of Oden. His appearance resembles that of a traditional Kabuki performer. He ate a paramecia type of Devil Fruit that allows him to transform anything that he draws into a 3D "real" object or thing by using his giant ink brush and by saying 'Appear.'

Fans have long doubted Kanjuro's silent personality, and much earlier claimed that he is the traitor. One of the leaked panels reveals that Kanjuro admitted that he is the traitor, which supports and confirms the theory.

It appears that his true name is Kanjuro Koruzumi, which obviously underlines his blood relation with the Shogun of the Wano country, Orochi Koruzumi. "I experienced joy and sorrow together with you all on a daily basis, obtained your absolute trust... didn't resent any of you, and I also intended to hurt any of you. The only thing I did was to continuously feed Master Orochi information," Kanjuro tells his fellow scabbards in one of the translated panels of "One Piece" Chapter 974.

"One Piece" Chapter 974: Denjiro Reveals Faking Komuruzaki's Fake Death

It was earlier predicted that "One Piece" Chapter 974 would show Kyoshiro (Denjiro), revealing how he faked the death of Komuruzaki. The previous "One Piece" chapter already unveiled that Hiyori, the daughter of Oden and Komuruzaki, the most beautiful and most popular Oiran of the Dayu rank., are one and the same.

"One Piece" Chapter 974 is scheduled to drop on Mar. 15, 2020. It is titled "Onward to Onigashima." Based on the raw scans, it looks like the manga is going back to the present timeline. It would also show Kanjuro's betrayal to the Kozuki clan, particularly to Momonusuke.
