Spoilers and what to expect from One Piece Episode 1016

Luffy has finally reached the top of the skull dome with team member Roronoa Zoro and worst generation pirates Trafalgar Law and Eustass Kid. After watching a wounded Yamato on the battlefield, the mugiwara boy loses his calm and delivers a massive punch on Yonkou Kaido. The emperor of the sea, who did not accept a thunderous blow coming from Luffy, almost gets knocked out by the disastrous blow. After watching Kaido crumble to the ground, an agitated Big Mom asks Kaido to regain his composure.

The intensified battle between Luffy and Kaido also named as 'Roof piece' by fans is all set to begin. However, the next episode is going to be a special one dedicated to Straw Hat members Roronoa Zoro and Vinsmoke Sanji. As teased by the makers, it will be based on the duo's exploits at Barto's secret room. Seemingly, the anime fans might have to wait a bit longer to watch Luffy and Kaido unleash their power as they aim to demolish each other.
