Although, no official announcement has been made by the mangaka Eiichiro Oda or Shonen Jump magazine about the update on One Piece Ending. At the JUMP Festa Super State 2023, Oda talked about the ending of the anime. He had initially stated that the manga would come to an end soon.
However, he stated that he had exaggerated this. Oda also said that eventually, the manga will come to an end in a few years as he is planning on finishing it. He also said it won’t be rushed as he will take his time to address all the plot points and stories to address and give the manga a satisfying ending.

Still, he also tells Aoyama his personal goal would be for the series to end in a total of 3 years.

Hence, for a manga like One Piece, which has been ongoing for 26 years, a good and satisfying ending is the only way forward. Therefore, if the author decided to take a few more years to do so, fans might as well enjoy the ride hoping for a good ending.
One Piece's ending will literally affect the manga world like Roger's execution.

Thread on the r/OnePiece subreddit
The series has started its final arcs, but there are still many wars to be fought for Luffy and his Straw hat pirate buddies. The main question is who the final villain will be. The Reddit post discussion was about a poll on who the final villain of the manga would be. The options were
- Akainu
- Blackbeard
- Imu
- Shanks
- Other
Many Redditors commented on either Blackbeard or Imu. They are two of the strongest characters to be introduced in the manga so far.
Marshall D. Teach is the admiral of the Blackbeard pirate squad and is commonly called the Blackbeard. He is also one of the four emperors. He is one of Luffy’s archenemies, but what makes this character so strong? Blackbeard is the only known person in One
Piece history to wield the power of two devil fruits. Yami Yami no Mi is a devil fruit that allows the consumer to control and create darkness at will. Gura Gura no Mi is a devil fruit that allows the consumer to create earthquakes at will. Blackbeard has consumed both these fruits making him both a Darkness Human and a Tremor Human.
Another major villain that the commenters were stating is called Im or Imu. They are the secret monarch sitting on the Empty Throne at Mary Geoise of the One Piece universe. They are the highest sovereign of the government and the five elders bow down to him.
The only glimpse of the character that we get is a silhouette. They have been kept a secret from everyone else in the government and the rest of the world. Very little is known about this person, their abilities and the power that they possess. However, it has been insinuated that this person is very strong and powerful.
The commenters are sceptical if both these supervillains are going to team up or if Luffy will join Blackbeard to defeat Im Sama. The final battle will mostly take place between the former comrades later on when they find the final treasure, One Piece in the island of Laugh Tale.
While some believe that Shanks or Zoro might end up being the final villain in One Piece Ending.
While many are skeptical about who the final villain will be, Many seem to agree that it should be either Blackbeard or Im Sama. Either way, all we can do is wait and watch how the mangaka will finally end the manga. Fans can be sure that with so much effort put into the series so far, we can expect a satisfying ending.Read the latest chapter and the upcoming ones on Viz Media.
