The 797^th chapter of the popular Japanese manga  "One Piece" is set to hit book shelves on Aug. 24, in the 39^th issue of WSJ. Its imminent arrival means that rumors about what the Straw Pirates will be up to will undoubtedly increase.

A lot of fans believe that the Straw Hat Pirates will receive a big boost in prize after the events of the last chapter. "Black Leg" Sanji will allegedly get the peak prize of about 30 million with his fight with the "Demon Bamboo" Vergo."

Another "One Piece" rumor that's been swirling around is the presumed fight that will happen between either Monkey D. Luffy or  Zoro and the task force of Admiral Fujitora. Fans will remember that in Chapter 795, Fujitora finally took on the pirates, putting him at a disadvantage against Luffy.

There are also rumors about Luffy's fighting skills being at par with Don Quixote Doflamingo's prowess, so this might mean he'll end up as a contender. However, there's also the chance that he might just forego the fight in order to inform Rebecca about her father.

There's a big possibility that Luffy and the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates will be Dressrosa. If this does happen, then Dressrosa will end up under the hands of Pirates or the Marines will capture King's Palace and enforce their own set of rules.

But readers should not forget Sengoku, which is one the crucial aspects in the "One Piece" tale. Sengoku might sway the balance between the how the World Government will look at its relationship with Doflamingo and Dressrosa.

The excitement surrounding the upcoming chapter of "One Piece" is understandable. But fans' enthusiasm was deflated a bit when it was announced that the next chapter will be delayed for a week due to the Oban Holidays.
