Things are becoming even more exciting and action-packed for "One Piece" as it is said that the upcoming chapter of the manga will feature the return of Jinbe into the scene as he helps Luffy and Nami escape. 

According to reports, "One Piece's" current story arc, "Whole Cake Island," is tapering toward its end , and the upcoming chapter 852 will possibly feature the return of Jinbe into the picture. Allegedly, Jinbe will be instrumental in freeing Luffy and Nami, who were imprisoned by Big Mom some chapters ago.

It is also suspected that, once Luffy and Nami escape, it will be easier for them to save Sanji from his wedding with Pudding, who, in the current chapter, is revealed to be a wolf in sheep's clothing. After readers thought that Pudding was sweet and innocent, chapter 851 reveals that she has actually been aware of Big Mom's plan all along, revealing to Reiju, Sanji's sister, that she will kill the entire Vinsmoke family during the wedding.

On the other hand, while it's possible for Luffy and Nami to escape from Big Mom's prison in the upcoming chapter 852 of "One Piece," the same thing cannot be said about Brook, who is still imprisoned in Big Mom's Treasure Room. However, it is also speculated that, if Luffy and Nami cannot come to the rescue of Brook, there is a possibility that it will be Carrot and Chopper who will help him as, after all, it has been revealed in the past that the two can easily find their friends by accessing the mirrors in the Mirror World. Hence, Carrot and Chopper my find themselves in Big Mom's Treasure Room to help Brook.

In the event that Brook will be freed, indeed, it is suspected that he and Big Mom will come face to face for a showdown of force, much more that the former has the same ability with the latter: manipulating souls. While it's true that Big Mom has the upper hand if she and Brook will really battle, it is said that Brook's determination should not be underestimated as he is bent on getting the Road Poneglyph.

"One Piece" chapter 852 is expected to arrive tomorrow, Jan. 5.
