The anime collaborations in Fortnite have grown over the past year as fans of the genre have seen their favorite characters enter the loop. Whether it is a long-running Dragon Ball Z collab in Chapter 3 or the latest My Hero Academia's Deku Smash Mythic still going strong in Chapter 4, the collabs always bring out excitement amongst fans of the franchise.

After a recent tweet by Epic's Chief Creative Officer and Fortnite loremaster Donald Mustard, players have started speculating about an upcoming collaboration with a major anime franchise. As always, Donald is known for sharing cryptic tweets for Fortnite players that hint at a potential future event or a collaboration in-game.

He recently changed his location online to "The Blue Ocean," while sharing a video of himself standing in front of the ocean where huge waves can be seen hitting several rocks on the shore.

As the cryptic tweet did not reveal anything directly, individuals are speculating that the next major anime collab will be with One Piece. The manga series' lore is set around the ocean with Luffy's Straw Hat Pirates.

It is always an exciting time for the Fortnite community whenever the game's loremaster Donald Mustard posts a cryptic tweet and lets players' imaginations run wild. This time around, he changed his Twitter bio location to "The Blue Ocean" and posted a video of his camera facing the ocean waves.

While it is still unclear what he is referring to as the current chapter isn't ocean-based, several players and leakers have started speculating that an upcoming collaboration with the famous anime series One Piece awaits them. The anime follows the protagonist Monkey D Luffy, the leader of the Ocean Pirates

Fans believe, as depicted in the anime, The Blue Ocean refers to the vibrant water shown in the anime as the ship Straw Hat Pirates cruises on in search of treasure. They also believe that the collab might finally bring their favorite characters to the game, something they have been waiting for for quite a long time.

The two characters that many players would especially like to see in the game are Monkey D Luffy and his right-hand man Roronoa Zoro, who wields the mighty Wado Ichimonji sword. The collab might soon bring their outfits and famous weapon pickaxes to Fortnite.

However, for the collaboration to take place, the game would require an area where the famous ship that the Straw Hat Pirates travel in, could be placed and become a potential loot landmark for players.

Another reason behind this speculation is that the teaser by Mustard comes right after the release of One Piece Odyssey. This is a brand new RPG developed by Bandai Namco that lets individuals play as Luffy and other pirates of his gang and gives them a brand new story to explore.
