Chapter 1 had Roger’s introduction in the first page.
Chapter 50 had Mihawk’s reveal.
Chapter 100 had Dragon’s introduction in the first page.
Chapter 500 had Rayleigh’s introduction in the last page, he barely managed to get it in.
We can assume we will get a similar thing in Chapter 1000, a new character with some sort of connection to Roger like Rocks (in a flashback). That’s probably why Oda has been offscreening many things. My guess is that Chapter 1000 will have Scopper Gaban’s introduction in the current story.
Maybe we have already seen Scopper Gaban on the cover page of Chapter 631. Here we see Crocus and Laboon for the first time after the timeskip. Crocus is drinking with an unknown person wearing a Samurai or Japanese clothes which it seems related to Wano Kingdom.
Some speculated the man drinking with Crocus is Shiki the Golden Lion but looking closely at the image you can see that hair doesn’t match.
Also, Shiki has no relation to Crocus. And why would Crocus be happy to see Shiki?
so, what if the mysterious man is instead Scopper Gaban? The hair matches.
You might say the hair color doesn’t match but there could easily be a coloring error. The mysterious man’s hair could be white and not blond.
It’s a matter of fact that Scopper Gaban has aged and therefore his hair may have turned white.
Furthermore Scopper Gaban is Crocus’ ex crewmate so it makes totally sense.
So what do you think?
