One Piece’sprevious chapter turned out to be monumental as Trafalgar Law and Eustass Kid finally managed to overcome the Yonko, Charlotte Linlin in their main fight on Onigashima. Making clever use of their Devil Fruit awakening abilities, Law and Kid were able to injure Big Mom to the point of breaking her bones and, more importantly, push her off the island for good, setting up incredible things forOne Piece 1041.
While Big Mom didn’t exactly get knocked out or lose the fight in the typicalOne Piecemanner, she’s out of the picture, for now, meaning a return for her anytime soon seems to be unlikely. With Big Mom out of the picture, there are only a few things in Onigashima that need the fans' attention and the biggest one of them is Luffy’s fight against Kaido. All that and more could be tackled inOne Piece chapter 1041.

What To Expect From One Piece 1041?
With Kid and Law’s victory now being made official, it is highly likely that all attention will be turned away from them for the time being. In typicalOne Piecefashion, the most important thing that Oda will likely do is resonate the news of Big Mom’s fall throughout the island. Looking at how he handled the previous fights, this one should be no different, meaningthe likes of CP0 will finally hearabout the fall of Yonko Big Mom from the heights of Onigashima.
While one CP0 member remains in their waiting room, the other two are currently engaging Izo in battle. It must be noted that Izo is quite injured already, meaning he can’t really fight for long. What’s more, the masked members of the CP0 are described to be the strongest of the lot, making things even worse for him. Thankfully, this is where Marco the Phoenix could come into play and help Izo hold back the CP0 elites while Brook and Robin make their escape from their grasps.

At the same time, Raizo’s fight looks to be ending now as the previous chapter saw Fukurokuju fall to the floor while Raizo stood resilient.One Piecechapter 1041 may see this fight come to an end meaning there is only one thing thatOda will focus on now – Luffy vs Kaido.
It is no surprise that this fight has been built up to the biggest of all in the entirety ofOne Pieceso far. Kaido is a Yonko of the Sea and Luffy is taking him on all alone, which is his biggest step up so far. While the fans have definitely seen quite a lot of their fight already, the real action only begins from the next chapter of the story. It must be noted that Luffy hasn’t gone all out yet. He isn’t in his Gear Fourth form and hasn’t received his big power-up likethe Straw Hat Pirates either. Without a doubt,One Piecechapter 1041 will take fans to the rooftop once again, amidst some more important stuff.
One Piece Chapter 1041: Joy Boy And Zunesha’s Connection
The previous chapter ofOne Piecehad some major reveals regarding Joy Boy and the One Piece itself. According to Yonko Big Mom, a part of the One Piece could actually be somewhere in Wano Country, which is jaw-dropping information, to say the least. How exactly this is possible isn’t known but given thatOda is focusing quite a lot on Joy Boy, fans will find out more about it in the upcoming chapters, possibly even inOne Piece 1041.

Momonosuke,the future Shogun of Wano country, also revealed that Zunesha is nearby and that in the past, Zunesha was Joy Boy’s companion, meaning there’s a lot of history there that the fans will eventually get to know. Oda has gradually brought Zunesha into the Wano Country arc and, more importantly, revealed important bits of information about his relationship with Joy Boy. In the previous chapter, Momonosuke started talking about Zunesha and it seems as if he has an idea to make use of Zunesha’s powers somehow.
We may hear a short version of his connection to Joy Boy from Momonosuke and even learn what crime he committed and why he’s kept walking for 800 years since. Fans will definitely see more of Momonosuke soon enough and a lot of Wano’s secrets, including a part of the One Piece that lies in Wano, will finally be revealed. Eiichiro Oda has previously stated that the Wano Country arc will be heavily related to the last chapter of the series, so whatever it is that Momonosuke has to say could be of Paramount importance and might just be revealed to the fans in the next chapter of the series.
When Will One Piece 1041 Release?
Unfortunately, One Piece will not be released in the next Jump Issue since Eiichiro Oda is taking his usual break that follows every three chapters. One Piece 1041 will release officially on Jul 20, 2025, according to the MangaPlus app. You can read the manga chapter for free on MangaPlus or the Shonen Jump app.
