Speculation surrounding the unprecedented hiatus
Oda's decision to take such a prolonged break has left many fans surprised, as the mangaka typically only takes shorter breaks or hiatuses under extraordinary circumstances. The hiatus, which will begin after the release of Chapter 1111 later this week in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #17, means fans will have to endure an almost month-long wait for the next installment, with One Piece Chapter 1112 set to be released on April 21, 2024.
While the reason behind Oda's extended break remains undisclosed, speculation among fans and industry insiders has run rampant. Some speculate that Oda may be experiencing health issues, citing past instances where he took breaks to undergo surgery or recover from health concerns. Others believe that the hiatus could be related to the need for Oda to plan out the final stages of the storyline, ensuring a satisfying conclusion to the epic tale of One Piece.

Interestingly, Eiichiro Oda's decision to go on hiatus during this period mirrors past occurrences. In both 2022 and 2023, Oda took breaks around the same time, coinciding with significant developments in the story or personal health reasons. These breaks, while undoubtedly frustrating for fans eager for new content, serve as a reminder of the demanding nature of creating a weekly manga series, especially one as beloved and expansive as One Piece.

One Piece manga: impact on the story and break schedule
The timing of Oda's hiatus adds an air of suspense to the current arc, with Chapter 1111 expected to deliver groundbreaking events before the break. The collaboration between Luffy and the Giants to confront the Five Elders, or the Gorosei, will lead to intense action, and Dr. Vegapunk’s message will reveal some vital information about the world of One Piece. Fans are left to wonder what cliffhangers or revelations await them in the final chapter before the hiatus.
The aforementioned hiatus will commence after the release of Chapter 1111, which is set to hit shelves on March 24th. There will be no new chapters for three consecutive weeks following this, starting from March 31st with Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #18, and extending through to April 14th. The series is expected to resume with One Piece Chapter 1112 on April 21st in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue #21. However, it's important to note that there will be no One Piece release on May 5th due to a double Jump issue the preceding week.
