Creating a majestic world with over 11 different sagas, 1000+ characters, 1100+ chapters, and unlimited adventures is not everyone’s cup of tea. The only man capable of doing this is Eiichiro Oda, the creator ofOne Piece.Oda is deemed one of the greatest manga creators to have ever lived, and the biggest display of this isOne Piece.
The story ofOne Pieceis so intriguing and varied that it has a different plot with every arc, connecting it all to one central narrative. However, coming up with these varied ideas takes a lot of effort and stress, but Oda still managed to do it for almost 30 years. But working for so long has instilled fear in the minds of the fans about what would happen if Oda ran out of ideas.
While this is truly one of the biggest problems withOne Piece,Oda has already discussed it long ago. The mangaka once assured his fans that he would never run out of ideas and would make sure that the story ofOne Pieceremains at its peak till the end.
Eiichiro Oda’s Assurance ToOne PieceFans
In 2017, Oda released an official statement which was translated and shared by popularOne Piecefan account,@sandman_APon X. In his statement, Oda pointed out that he has the capability to come up with new and exciting ideas for his manga as long as it goes on. But still, there was one problem that he feared the most.

Oda stated:

According to the manga creator, while he is confident in coming up with good ideas forOne Piece’sstoryline, he fears that his life span might run out beforeOne Pieceends.
This is a legitimate fear as Oda has been working onOne Piecefor almost 30 years and he still has quite a few miles to go before he can reach the enticingconclusion of one of the biggest adventures.
