'One Piece' chapter 848 spoilers: Lola's backstory revealed

A lot sure happened in chapter 847 of "One Piece." It was revealed that Big Mom could have become the Pirate King (Queen) if Lola hadn't run away from a political marriage. Big Mom could have held the title that Luffy has been coveting for so long if her scheme worked out. She was that close. So, what is going to happen in "One Piece" chapter 848?

Sources say the next chapter is going to feature Lola's backstory and how she refused to go through with her wedding. A lot of fans believe Lola was supposed to marry a giant king or prince before she left to find a husband of her own. That would explain why Big Mom becomes enraged at the mere mention of giants. Or maybe she just hates her ex-husband, Pound, so much because he does look like a giant if his head is the only part of his body seen.

While Big Mom failed in her attempt to consolidate power by using Lola, reports say she's going to succeed in getting Sanji to marry Pudding in chapter 848. Sanji is still worried that his friends are in danger, but some fans say he is going break the deal with Big Mom and escape with Luffy and Nami. Well, Big Mom already broke her deal with Sanji by taking his friends captive.

Meanwhile, sources believe Pedro and Brook are going to cause a commotion in their quest to steal the Road Poneglyph. Luffy and Nami are allegedly going to slip out of their jail and look for Sanji while all of this is happening.

Fans also believe that Chopper is going to save Carrot from Brûlée, and the two will escape the mirror world to help Luffy and others rescue Sanji.

"One Piece" chapter 848 will come out sometime next week. In the meantime, readers are advised to take everything with a grain of salt because details for the next chapter have yet to be revealed.
