One Piece’sWano Country arc was the first time that truly made the fans feel that the series was edging closer to its end. Before that, Oda mentioned on multiple occasions thatOne Piecewould end in a set number of years, but nothing truly ever materialized. However, things are different now. One Piece finally entered the Final Saga afterthe end of the Wano Country Arc, and while this Final Saga is certainly not a short one, it is bound to end the series sooner or later.
Most fans expectOne Pieceto go on for a while, but the latest decision taken by Oda seems to imply thatOne Piecewill be moving forward at a slightly rushed pace, which raises questions about when it’ll end.
As fans know,Luffy has had quite an adventureinOne Pieceand currently, after leaving Egghead, he’s in Elbaf. Luffy only cares about the adventure aspect of things, but he also knows that he needs to get the last Road Poneglyph. Surprisingly enough, the last Road Poneglyph might well be on Elbaf, and this is because Oda has heavily hinted at it.
Just one more, and we’ll finally be at the Final Island! — Franky
According to what’s been mentioned in the story so far, the last Road Poneglyph is with the Man with the Burn Scar, and this person seems to be none other than Scopper Gaban. If Gaban truly has the last Road Poneglyph, then it goes without saying that once the fighting ends in Elbaf, Luffy will have all the required Poneglyphs and will finally be within reach of theOne Piece.

One Piecefans know very well thatOda has always wanted to endthe manga on a great note. Oda stated himself that he wants to create a series where the last part is the biggest and the most exciting part of the story. As such, one can say with confidence that Oda won’t rush any out of the story. However, at the same time, indeed, Oda can easily cut out parts that he deems not important.
The mysteries of the world, I’ll draw them all. Just bear with me a little longer. — Eiichiro Oda
One Piece recently entered the Loki flashback and clearly, the pace of the flashback is much faster than what fans are used to. Based on that, and the fact that Luffy might haveall four Road Poneglyphsby the end of the arc,One Piecemight end sooner than fans think.
One Piece Could Enter The Great War Arc After Elbaf
In Elbaf, Oda specifically called the wara prelude to the Great War that will engulf the world. In other words, the Great War could begin shortly after, and this is where everything could be settled. By all means, One Piece might truly end in the next few years.
