The adventures of the Straw Hat Pirates continue with chapter 842 of "One Piece." Speculations suggest that the on-going fight between Luffy and Cracker will be postponed, with the intervention of Nami.

It has been revealed that Luffy and Cracker have been fighting non-stop for almost 11 hours, and both of them already came out with their best skills and techniques. However, with Cracker defending the Seducing Woods, and Luffy trying to rescue his friend Sanji, no one is likely to surrender. It is hinted that with both of the fighters already on the verge of exhaustion, the fight will be postponed for another time due to the intervention of Nami.

Nami is in possession of Big Mom's Vivre card. Big Mom is the head of the Big Mom Pirates and is also one of the Yonkou, the top pirates in the New World. She also happens to be Cracker's mother. It is rumored that as what Nami had done with the other inhabitants of Seducing Woods, she will use the Vivre card to convince Cracker to postpone the fight. This is highly possible, given that Luffy has resorted to eating Cracker's biscuit armor, meaning that his most powerful skill — Gear Fourth — is proving to be ineffective against Big Mom's son.

Meanwhile, as the fight reaches its "conclusion," it is also said that the chapter will continue with the background details on Sanji's condition. Previously, it was revealed that Sanji managed to escape his Vinsmoke family with the help of his sister. With Sanji becoming a "hostage" to his family now, he again expects to be helped by Reiju. It remains to be seen, though, if Reiju will help his brother escape once again. Sanji is being held captive by his family for an arranged marriage with Big Mom's daughter, Pudding.

"One Piece" chapter 842 is scheduled to be released later this week.
