Last week's chapter for hit pirate manga "One Piece" drew to an interesting close, as it hints on an upcoming fight between Sanji and Luffy.

However, although Sanji is trying to get rid of Luffy and his group for their own sake, the fight may well become a smokescreen for Sanji's rescue. It is already expected that Luffy will not fight Sanji as the Straw Hat Pirates captain doesn't have the habit of fighting his friends. In addition, Luffy has just concluded a long fight with Big Mom's son, Charlotte Cracker. Understandably, his stamina is already spent as his previous fight was serious enough for him to go all-out with his Gear Fourth skill.

Meanwhile, it is said that the fight between the two will cascade into more events unfolding in Whole Cake Island. The fight will reportedly drag on and will lead to Big Mom wondering where the Vinsmokes are, as the convoy is supposedly on its way for a pre-wedding banquet. The delay will likely lead to Big Mom throwing another tantrum and adding another layer of chaos.

In the midst of the chaos, it is said that Chopper and Carrot will play a big part in Sanji's rescue. The duo is still trapped in the Mirror World. However, one advantage for the two is that they can travel to any mirror on the island. This is said to lead to interesting events, such as Chopper and Carrot communicating with either Pudding or Reiju, and soliciting their help in rescuing Sanji.

In addition, the added distraction of Luffy and Sanji's fight will also be an advantage to Pedro and Brooke. It can be recalled that when the group reached Big Mom's territory, the two have gone off on their own, trying to stealthily infiltrate Big Mom's castle and run away with the Road Poneglyph. The artifact is needed to reach Raftel, home of the One Piece.
