The battle between Luffy and Cracker will conclude with the latter being defeated by the Strawhat Pirate despite using his devil fruit. After Cracker gets back up from the attack unleashed by Luffy, Big Mom's son will still come overpowered by Luffy's assault.
The last chapter left off where both Luffy and Cracker brought heavy damage to each other. Speculations suggests now that the match will come to an end with Cracker being defeated by Luffy. In a forum posted at Oro Jackson, "One Piece" fans casted their theories and predictions for the upcoming chapter.
According to Le-Sanna, Cracker will try to belittle Luffy's attacks, but the latter's second form of G4 gatling gun will finish him off. User Shanks D Roger casted the same speculation and added that Pound will be helping Luffy and Nami get out of the seducing woods. The trio moves ahead while Big Mom's former husband reveals them several secret paths to the Whole Cake Island.
Big Mom will get news from Brulee that Cracker has been defeated. Meanwhile, a scene being hoped by fans for a long time now was predicted by Mr D G. According to the user, as soon as Luffy and company arrives at the Whole Cake Island chateau, they will be meeting Sanji at the entrance. Ecstatic by the encounter, the Straw Hat pirates will tell Sanji they came to rescue him, but the Vinsmoke will tell them he still needs to attend the tea party.
Despite the predictions made at Oro Jackson, a "One Piece" fan at Manga Drone posted in a blog saying it would be tragic for Cracker to get defeated by Luffy's G4 Gatling Gun. He noted that the speculation that Luffy will out power Cracker may not be logical as it will put the Strawhat pirate above other top-level pirates.
He also recalled when Luffy fought with Doffy, who is weaker than Cracker, he had almost exhausted himself just to get with his opponent. Knowing the Cracker is way stronger than Doffy, it may be impossible for Luffy to finish the Yonkou Commander.
