One Piece’s New Whitebeard is A Hero No One Would Expect After Big Twist

Warning! Contains spoilers for One Piece Chapter #1088!The latest arc of One Piece is setting up one unexpected character as the manga’s new Whitebeard, with potentially tragic consequences. The long-running series by Eiichiro Oda has typically shied away from showing death in the past, but Whitebeard was one of the few exceptions to this rule. Now that the manga is in its Final Saga, it seems Oda has relaxed this rule somewhat, opening the series up to another major death just like Newgate’s.
