Among the questions he received, the producer was asked if he wouldn't like to expand the series through spin-offs. Eventually, he said he would love to explore that idea, making spin-off series about other characters besides the Straw Hat crew. However, he confessed that he would love to start with a series about Mihawk, telling the story of his youth.
“I would love for that to be the case! There are so many stories we still need to delve into. I would love to do a series about young Mihawk. To see his rise through the world, interacting with other prominent figures from the past.”
Synopsis:
The story revolves around Monkey D. Luffy, a young man who gained a body made of rubber after eating the magical Gomu Gomu no Mi (Rubber Fruit). Inspired by his childhood idol, the powerful pirate Shanks the Red-Haired, Luffy decided to become a pirate and sail the seas to find the mythical treasure, the One Piece, and proclaim himself the King of the Pirates.
Eiichiro Oda began serializing One Piece in Weekly Shonen Jump in 1997. Since then, his manga has grown in an astonishing way, becoming the resounding phenomenon it is today. As its story has expanded, the work has reached over 1000 chapters and 100 manga volumes published in 25 years. Even being such an extensive series, One Piece has become the best-selling manga in history.
