One Piece is currently in the midst of one of its most captivating sequences of chapters, largely attributed to the unfolding events on Egghead Island within the final saga of the story. Eiichiro Oda has maintained a relentless narrative momentum since the commencement of this concluding saga. The previous chapter was undoubtedly a standout installment in the final saga, and fans hold high expectations for One Piece Chapter 1096, if not even greater ones.
One Piece Chapter 1096 is poised to pick up the narrative thread from the prior chapter, delving into the developments revolving around Kuma on God Valley. Following Kuma's escape from his captors, he was discovered by other slaves who sought to return him to the clutches of the Celestial Dragons. Their motives were self-preservation, as they wished to avoid the severe punishment and execution that awaited them. Coincidentally, this is when readers were introduced to a youthful Ivankov and, along with him, a new character named Ginny.
The significance of these two characters in this flashback is eagerly anticipated by fans, who foresee the emergence of a profound friendship between them. Throughout his life, Kuma has known no companionship beyond his parents, having spent the last nine years in captivity. In One Piece Chapter 1096, it is anticipated that Kuma will finally be given the opportunity to articulate his feelings, emotions, dreams, and desires.
Chances are high that Kuma, Ivankov, and Ginny will embark on an escape together, likely within the confines of God Valley. Consequently, the Navy will intensify its pursuit of these fugitive slaves, and as the harrowing hunt unfolds, these characters will be forced to contend with the oppressive Celestial Dragons.
Furthermore, One Piece Chapter 1096 is expected to lay the foundation for the inception of the Freedom Fighters. Currently, Ivankov is the only one who has revealed his aspirations, making it clear in the previous chapter that he is determined to survive at any cost. Ginny, although an enigmatic character thus far, probably harbors her own aspirations, which will likely be unveiled in the forthcoming chapters, possibly in Chapter 1096. As for Kuma, he likely possesses numerous dreams, with the foremost being the liberation of people and becoming a hero.
Kuma might express this ambition to Bonney, and readers could witness him articulating this concept for the first time in the next chapter. It's possible that Kuma will also share the legend of Nika with Ivankov and the others. The idea of liberating people and bringing joy to their lives could serve as the cornerstone for the formation of the Freedom Fighters. Fans are aware that the Freedom Fighters were a precursor to the Revolutionary Army, founded by Dragon. The seeds of the Freedom Fighters may very well be sown here on God Valley, 38 years in the past. There's also the tantalizing possibility that Dragon might make his inaugural appearance on this island, uniting forces with Ivankov, Kuma, and Ginny. If this comes to pass, the formation of the Freedom Fighters on this island is something that fans would greatly anticipate.
Of course, the ultimate decision rests with Oda, but the conditions appear ripe for this significant development, possibly commencing in One Piece Chapter 1096.
