Whenever Eiichiro Oda picks up his pen, the fans can smell a mystery cooking. In the last two decades, there have been several mysteries that have got theOne Piecefans scratching their heads. The first one is whatOne Pieceis. But the second one seems to have grabbed everyone’s attention recently.
During the mid-2000s, Oda mentioned that a certain pirate with an eye patch would appear before the end ofOne Piece. With the anime close to its end, the fans believe he might finally reveal the mysterious character. The character may have abilities beyond anyone’s imagination.
The Eye-Patched Pirate Is Eiichiro Oda’s Answer To Every Mystery
It has been long since Eiichiro Oda mentioned the eye-patched pirate, but the fans never stopped theorizing. They believe that the pirate could dramatically shake up the entire plot. Whenever someone imagines a pirate, the first thought that comes to their mind is someone with an eye patch and a wooden leg. Oda might be trying to visualize that belief. The mysterious figure might be the true embodiment of a pirate and have unimaginable powers.
Oda (2007): A pirate with an eye-patch will appear in the final phase of One Piece. I’m itching to draw that character as soon as possible.😍 Maybe people have a preconception that many pirates wear eye patches, but actually I’ve never drawn any pirates with eye patches.pic.twitter.com/RsA5jxOh6n
The best guess would be Rocks D. Xebec since his face has not been revealed. Another possibility is that it could be JoyBoy, the first pirate ever to sail the seas. The mangaka mentioned that he had never drawn such a character before and wanted to draw him. Apart from his identity, many believe him asOne Piece‘s protector. The character might reveal every mystery there ever was.
Apart from the eye-patch pirate, there is also an individual with a burnt scar. They both could be the same person. The scar could be why he lost his eye and is wearing an eye patch. The burnt scar individual is said to have the last Road Poneglyph. It is something that Monkey D. Luffy would need to reach Laugh Tale. He could guide the Straw Hat Pirates to the final island.

Withvarious theories on the last Road Poneglyph, the individual would have to be a superhuman to protect it. Fans are not discarding the entire superhuman idea sinceEiichiro Odacan do anything. Moreover, the mystery keepers are often the most powerful individuals.
The Final Saga Will Reveal Every One Piece Mystery
Eiichiro Oda has a habit of foreshadowing situations. He has done it multiple times in the past. A common perception is that pirates will have an eye patch, a wooden leg, a hook for a hand, and a parrot on their shoulder. The wooden leg was introduced through Red-Leg Zeff, the hook hand through Sir Crocodile, and the Rob Lucci had a parrot.
