Chapter 989 spoilers (FULL SUMMARY and RAW CHAPTER)
Full summary

Chapter 989: "I don't feel like we are losing".

In the cover, Pound shows a locket that contains a photo with child Lola and Chiffon to prove he's their father. The photo was taken while Pound was kicked out of the room by Big Mom, so half the photo is Big Mom's feet.

Kaidou's subordinates are shocked and start running away since they know Big Mom is about to go crazy and they don't want to stay there.

Luffy starts climbing up to Onigashima's roof to fight Kaidou. Luffy tells Shinobu that Yamato is on their side. Yamato is blushing when she tells Momonosuke "Hi. I'm Oden and I will protect you". Momonosuke and Shinobu are shocked and run away from Yamato.

Big Mom gets up after Franky attack without wounds. The Yakuza bosses discuss that they should go fight Tobiroppo to buy more time instead of wasting time fighting lower-rank subordinates from Kaidou's crew. Franky introduces himself to Big Mom. Nami tells Franky to run, since he's up against one of the Yonkou.

Franky: "Why should we run just because she's a Yonkou? Do you still intend to make our captain Pirate King?"

Franky is about to shoot his beam at Big Mom but 3 Numbers appears. They are all drunk and look like onis (like Nangi in last chapter). Big Mom says they are the failed version of "Ancient Giants" (like Oars) that Kaidou bought from Punk Hazard.

One of the Numbers is holding the Brachio Tank with Usopp and Chopper. Franky shoots a beam in its face. Big Mom is about to attack Franky (she calls him "Iron Man") but Jinbe grabs Big Mom's arm from behind and throws her to the ground.

Robin springs tons of hands from the ground and roll Big Mom until she crashes into the other side of the room. Jinbe says Big Mom will soon be back angrier than ever. Franky announces it's time to assemble Franky Shougun.

Luffy climbs up to the stage and meets Zoro, who happens to appear at the door behind the stage. They decide to go up for Kaidou together, ignoring Queen. Zoro grabs Luffy then he uses "Gomu Gomu no Rocket" to fly up.

However Queen transforms into a dinosaur and grabs them with his mouth. Above Queen's head, we can see King and other flying Gifter that are waiting to block anyone that want to go for Kaidou. Sanji gets up from the rubbles, he's fine thanks to the suit that protected him.

Queen throws Luffy and Zoro back down on the floor. Hyogoro smiles and says that, although there are so many obstacles, it doesn't feel like they are losing at all. In the last double page, we can see Straw Hat Pirates standing together at last facing Numbers, Queen and King.

END. No break next week

Best part about this..."No break next week".
 
This is the first time we see "young adult" Big Mom showing her vicious side. The SBS drawings and the few official panels that showed her previously had her smiling. Too bad Pound didnt get the expression on her eyes as she kicked him out.
 
First off,

What exactly made you think she had any other side? She's smiling a lot in the present too.

I don't know if Oda is trying to make 1,000 the big Luffy/Kaido fight conclusion but it sure feels like he's skipping parts of the arc he would normally show in buildup or is taking the length of Dressrosa to heart. The only thing I can think is that Kaido won't be the actual final boss of this arc and maybe Big Mom is.

It sure feels like Orochi is dead dead and there won't be a demon fruit reveal with his powers.

I love how my girl Robin just drags Big Mom away like she's trash.

Sanji feels so downplayed here. He has this big power up in the Germa suit which he basically only uses to fight mooks, and then of top of that his place next to the captain has been taken by Jimbei.

This will not be anywhere close to finished by chapter 1000.

1000 is when the next big thing happens imo. Maybe the Navy makes its move on directions from X Drake - Ryokugyu appears. Maybe Luffy finally lands a punch on Kaido that hurts? Whatever it is, it's going to be exciting. It's the 1000th chapter, that's worth Oda doing something special/hype in the chapter to celebrate.

Chapter 1000 Front Page..Yamamoto and Robin colored page where they are both completely nude.

Nothing more epic.
 
Kinda expected Oars to be related to those Punk Hazard skulls, but if they're called "Ancient" giants instead of "Artificial" or "Punk" giants, are they implying these things are the precursors for regular giants and that all giants and possibly other races are just the result of genetic experiments? I hope that isn't the case as that would take out a lot of the already fading magic from the series.

Also for anyone interested in some further pronoun/gender sperg drama in OP communities:

Until the last chapter I would have agreed that He was the proper pronoun for Yamamoto, but after the whole "Momo is my son." I think She is a fine pronoun and it is just that Yamamoto is just an OdenWeeb.

We still got two more acts to go, and a tragedy or something to close out the third. This arc is gonna be a LOT longer than Dressrosa considering it has now reached 80 chapters and has as many threads being juggled. I'm also 100% convinced that Oda's estimate of finishing in 5 years isn't an estimate; it's the goal he's set for himself. I don't think he wants to drag this out into his 50s, what with him wanting to actually do shit outside of creating One Piece, like travel, learn English, or make up for lost time with his family (the pandemic might have helped this but knowing Oda and Japanese work culture...)

It took you that long to figure out Yamato is a dumb LARPer? Personally I think the joke is being waaaay overdone and should've been put on the backburner for a while after her argument with Luffy before Kaido's big announcement.
