One Piece is a Japanese manga series written and illustrated by Eiichiro Oda which has been translated into various languages and spawned a substantial media franchise, including animated and live action television series, films, video games, and associated music and merchandise. It follows the adventures of the teenaged boy and pirate captain Monkey D. Luffy, whose body gained the properties of rubber after he accidentally ate a supernatural fruit, as he travels the oceans in search of the series' titular treasure and organizes a diverse crew, named the Straw Hats.
In Japan, the series is published by Shueisha. Individual chapters have been published regularly in the shōnen manga anthology Weekly Shōnen Jump since July 22, 1997 and tankōbon format volumes (each collecting 10 to 12 chapters) have been published since December 24, 1997. [1] The series spans over 1000 chapters and, as of March 2024 [update] , has 108 tankōbon volumes, making One Piece the 22nd longest manga series by volume count.
The series has been translated and released in multiple countries. [2] [3] [4] English localization began in North America, where Viz Media currently serializes One Piece in the Shonen Jump digital vault simultaneously with Japan. It originally published its English language adaptation of the series in the now-defunct monthly print anthology Shonen Jump starting with the magazine's launch in November 2002. [5] It also publishes tankōbon format books since June 2003, [6] which have been collected into omnibus editions incorporating three tankōbon each since December 2009; [7] chapters and books also are published digitally through its website. [8] [9] [10] In the United Kingdom, the tankōbon were published by Gollancz Manga, starting March 2006, [11] until Viz Media took over after the fourteenth volume. [12] [13] In Australia and New Zealand, the English volumes have been distributed by Madman Entertainment since November 10, 2008. [14] By October 6, 2009, only 22 volumes had been released in English. [15] However, as announced in July 2009, Viz Media increased that number to 53 by June 2010, using an accelerated publishing schedule of five volumes per month during the first half of 2010.

Punk-01 explains the 20 kingdoms (which later formed the World Government) won a war with an advanced civilization during the mysterious Void Century; Ohara was destroyed after learning the Void Century events, and Vegapunk studied the events from Ohara's ruins, to his peril. The original Vegapunk (Stella/00) has an eidetic memory with the brain-brain fruit; since his head physically expands with more knowledge, he created an electronic memory storage, then built the six satellites using separate personality aspects: Shaka (01, Good), Lilith (02, Evil), Edison (03, Thinker), Pythagoras (04, Wise), Atlas (05, Violent), and York (06, Greedy). As CP0 (Lucci, Kaku, and Stussy) arrive, Stella/00 asks Luffy to help him escape because he knows the truth about the Void Century and the World Government sees him as a threat. At the Kamabakka Queendom, Kuma awakens and flees; at the Red Line, he climbs toward Marijoa. Lucci destroys Atlas/05 and Luffy fights him as Gear Five/Nika, enlisting Sentomaru's reluctant help. The Seraphim derive devil fruit powers from the Warlords: S-Bear (Kuma), S-Snake (Hancock), S-Shark (Jimbei), and S-Hawk (Mihawk); they help CP0 after Sentomaru is defeated. After CP0 arrive at the Labophase upper dome, Stussy betrays them, disabling Lucci and Kaku; Stella/00 commands the Seraphim to help. Garp arrives at Naval Base G-14 to rescue Koby from Blackbeard's headquarters, Fullalead Island. Stussy (CP0) is a clone of Buckingham Stussy of the Rocks Pirates, who claims to be the mother of Whitebeard's son, Edward Weevil; Weevil was abducted by Admiral Ryokugyu. Sentomaru deploys 50 Pacifista Mk IIIs to help Vegapunk's escape. Bonney abducts Stella/00 and finds Kuma's painful memories. As the other satellites search for Stella/00, S-Snake petrifies York/06, mystifying the satellites, as only Vegapunk (Stella/00 or the satellites) or the Five Elders could countermand their orders. Luffy and Zoro team up with Lucci and Kaku to fight S-Bear. On Elbaph, Dorry and Brogy have returned; Shanks prepares to battle Kid with their help. | |||||

Zoro and Kaku pursue S-Hawk while Luffy and Lucci continue to fight S-Bear. Shaka/01 finds Stella, but is shot by York/06, who has turned traitor in exchange for becoming a Celestial Dragon. After departing Wano, both Law and Kid are defeated by Emperors: Kid, by a single blow from Shanks on Elbaph; Law, by Blackbeard on Winner Island and their submarine, the Polar Tang, is sunk, but Bepo turns sulong and escapes. Buggy accidentally inspires his crew to join the race for the One Piece. Sabo returns to the Kamabakka Queendom and debriefs Iva and Dragon on the Reverie at Marijoa. Cobra inadvertently saw a shadowy figure named Imu ascend the Empty Throne, for which he was mortally wounded; Sabo attempted a rescue, but Cobra told him to flee and tell both Luffy and Vivi they share the Will of D. CP0 abducts Vivi and Wapol, but they flee with Morgans. Imu commands that Vegapunk's Mother Flame be used on Lulusia. On Fullalead, Koby frees himself and several Navy officers (Kujaku, Prince Grus, Hibari, and Garp) help him escape.

In a flashback starting 47 years ago, the last of the Buccaneer race, infant Kuma and his father Clapp are enslaved; Clapp promises liberation to Kuma, telling the legend of Nika, which Kuma passes in turn to Bonney. Nine years later, the Celestial Dragons hold a manhunt on God Valley; enslaved siblings Ginny and Ivankov reveal an escape plan: Ginny's call has attracted the Rocks and Roger pirates and Iva will steal the two devil fruits offered as prizes. Kuma volunteers to be their decoy. Iva and Kuma each seize a fruit but Linlin overpowers Iva and gives it to Kaido. Kuma eats the other, giving him the "Hands of Liberation" which he uses to save 500+, including Iva and Ginny, who vows to care for Kuma. At 25, after taking over his father's church, Kuma is jailed for protesting King Bekori's support of slavery, which ends after the Revolutionary Army liberates the island; both Kuma and Ginny join the RA. Eight years later, she is captured, then enslaved by a Celestial Dragon; after two years, Ginny contracts Sapphire Scales, a terminal illness which covered her skin in hard blue stones after being exposed to light. Her baby Bonney inherits both her appetite and disease; she already possesses age-age fruit powers. King Bekori returns, but is deposed by Kuma, who earns the unjust nickname "Tyrant"; declared a pirate after fighting the Navy, Kuma encounters Dragon, who says Vegapunk can cure Bonney. In exchange for stem cell therapy, Vegapunk clones Kuma into an army of Pacifista peacekeepers, but Saturn adds more conditions: Kuma joins the seven Warlords; then, after modification as the prototype PX-0 cyborg, has his free will removed. He gladly accepts for Bonney. Kuma and Bonney share six happy months together under Vegapunk's care, then are separated forever, as she is held hostage to ensure Kuma's loyalty until his development is finished. |
