Luffy and his crew continue their quest to save Sanji in the upcoming episode of "One Piece."

In the last episode, Luffy and his friends were last seen leaving Cacao Island. With still one day before they arrive at Whole Cake Island, the group decided to take a short break from their journey. They were at Chocolat Town when they crossed paths with a business owner named Pudding, who was kind enough to cover up for Luffy and Chopper after they ate her edible café.

Pudding was shocked when Luffy introduced himself, and Nami immediately became suspicious of her surprised reaction. The Straw Hats were unaware that they were already talking to Sanji's fiancée, who apparently knew about their ties to her husband-to-be.

A new trailer for the episode titled "The Emperor's Daughter! Sanji's Fiancée – Pudding!" has been recently released and it hints that more truths will be unraveled. Although the Straw Hats are initially anxious and worried about Pudding's real intentions, it appears that she will use her charm to get their loyalty. Pudding will use her genuine affections for Sanji to win the pirates over. In addition, the teaser hints that Big Mom's daughter will be making a bold move that will catch the group off guard. Whether she will become an ally or adversary for Luffy and his friends remains to be seen.

In other related news, the immensely popular "One Piece" manga series was recently delayed, leaving many anticipating fans confused. Manga creator Eiichiro Oda has taken numerous breaks in the middle of the series, but he usually alerts fans prior to the brief hiatus. While many believe that the break was just due to the long Golden Week Holiday, recent rumors claim that it could be related to the complicated storyline.

The next episode of "One Piece" airs Sunday, May 7, at 9:30 a.m. JST on Fuji TV.
