The next chapter of One Piece 504 will not come next week as writer Eiichiro Oda takes a break for a week.

One Piece 505, however, is expected to talk about the aftermath of Luffy and Cracker's battle and how Sanji could escape from Big Mom and the Vinsmoke patriarch.

As a recap for One Piece 504, the eleven-hour-long battle of Luffy and Cracker has finally concluded. The battle has been going on for so long that fans were anxious about how Luffy could defeat such strong opponent. As things turn out, it was not what fans were expecting but did not also come as a surprise to fans considering their beloved Straw Hat pirate's upbeat character.

With the help of Nami who summoned artificial rain to soften up the army biscuits of Cracker, Luffy ate the biscuits all way through the end of the battle. Hilarious and rib-tickling the scenes may be, but Nami has been nothing but supportive to Luffy.

She even boasted to Cracker, "Luffy's the man who's gonna become Pirate King!!! In other words, his hunger is absolutely limitless!!"

Luckily for the teammate, Luffy's seemingly bottomless stomach and Nami's non-stop rain scared Cracker and his army of biscuits. Further inspired by the thought of saving Sanji from his arranged marriage, Luffy enthusiastically devoured the biscuits, to Cracker's exasperation.

Overwhelmed by how the table is turning out of his favor, Cracker planned to plunge holes into Luffy's stomach. As Cracker attacked, Luffy transformed into a full version of Tankman, his 4th gear. However, his large size resulting from eating too many biscuits, Luffy can barely move, allowing Cracker to resume his attacks. 

With Luffy's patience wearing thin, he finally gave Cracker a full-blast attack, "It's time you felt the power of my fullness!!"

One Piece 804 wrapped up the battle with Cracker seemingly flying off from Luffy's "Cannon Ball!"

Meanwhile, Chopper and Carrot are still trapped in Brulee's mirror. It remains to be seen whether the two could finally find their way out of the mirror during One Piece 505.

As for Sanji, he was shown heading to the Whole Cake Chateau with the Vinsmokes. It has been widely speculated, however, that either her soon-to-be wife Lady Pudding or her elder sister Reiju could aid the escape of Sanji. As per Ecumenical News, Lady Pudding was believed to come to realize that she has to help Sanji get away. It has also been noted that Reiju would defy the wills of the Vinsmoke patriarch and help Sanji escape. 

Fans are hopeful that if Reiju helps Sanji escape, she would eventually join the Straw Hat crew.

Stay tuned for more exciting updates!
