Latest spoilers confirm that there will not be a break after One Piece chapter 1158

One Piece fans received exciting news from the latest spoilers, including confirmation that after One Piece chapter 1158 is released, there will be no break. This is good news following August 2025, when the manga had a series of breaks that arguably started to create doubts about the story's pace and raised questions about Eiichiro Oda's health.

The confirmation that there will be no break means the ongoing story keeps momentum, allowing fans to follow the quickly developing flashback arc, which focuses on the legendary Rocks D. Xebec and many major characters like Harald.

One Piece chapter 1158, which will explore the God Valley incident and the complex relationships among Rocks, Harald, and the World Government in more detail, is officially set to release on September 1, 2025, in Japan and on August 31, 2025, for most international readers.

The next chapter, 1159, is scheduled for release on September 7, 2025. The absence of a break after chapter 1158 keeps the exciting story flowing and allows fans to remain fully immersed as the flashback arc nears its conclusion.

With the announcement that One Piece will continue without interruption after chapter 1158, fans can anticipate ongoing weekly chapters that will maintain excitement and ensure a smooth storytelling flow.
