The latest installment of the “One Piece” manga contained major surprises, but one of its highlight moments has to be the unexpected “reunion” of Big Mom and Chopper. How the Yonko reacts to finding a Straw Hat would be a very interesting turn of events. Luckily, “One Piece” chapter 982 will be released without any break or delays.
‘One Piece’ chapter 982 predictions: What would Big Mom do to Chopper
Fans may recall that Charlotte Linlin’s first days in Wano was, absurdly, filled with adorable moments mostly shared with Tama and Chopper. She briefly lost her memories after falling when her crew first attempted to enter the country. Chopper then took care of her while making her go to Udon prison.
Fast forward to chapter 981, Big Mom and Chopper are reunited. But the Yonko is very unlikely to have any recollection of Chopper taking care of her, and it might mean trouble for the Straw Hat doctor in “One Piece” chapter 982.
Big Mom obviously has the capacity to attack and capture Chopper. However, the repercussions of this encounter could also affect the alliance’s entire plan. If she decided to capture Chopper in “One Piece” chapter 982, she could also immediately alert Kaido and Orochi and cause major issues in the alliance’s plan to remain mostly undetected until they are ready to attack.
‘One Piece’ chapter 982 spoilers: Izo returns home, reunites with his sister
As mentioned, chapter 981 was filled with big surprises, and those included Izo’s return to Wano with Nekomamushi and Marco the Phoenix. As for Izo, this is more than just joining the alliance.
Izo’s appearance also means a long-overdue homecoming and being reunited with his only family -- his sister Kiku. While the Wano arc is in the middle of a battle unfolding, it would not hurt to see brief and tender moments like a potential reunion of Kiku and Izo in “One Piece” chapter 982.
‘One Piece’ chapter 982 release date: Manga returns to the original schedule
The best news from the latest installment, however, has to be the release date of “One Piece” chapter 982. It is confirmed to arrive on Sunday, June 14, which means the manga will not have any break for the first time in the past couple of months.
