One Piece1109 is here, and we’re ready to talk about it on Rookie Pirate Radio, a podcast dedicated to the world of anime and manga. This week, Jon Negroni (me) and Travis Hymas discuss the latest chapter of the One Piece manga, titled “Interception.” But you don't have to wait 10 whole minutes to start listening because the episode is out right now! One Piece 1109 is currently available to read for free on Viz.

We want your feedback! If you have any questions, corrections, or your own theories and speculation, you can email us (rookipirateradio@gmail.com) and/or join our Discord! 

Discussion Points (Spoilers!):
The new cover story! Looks like it'll focus on Wano/Onigashima and tie up loose ends from the previous arc.
Vegapunk's message about the "truth of the world" is delayed (10 minutes or 10 CHAPTERS?!)
Luffy's attacks are ineffective against Saturn, indicating a potential power resistance or familiarity with Nika.
Kizaru's seems down for the count and his fate is uncertain, so Jon theorizes he may join the Cross Guild.
Vegapunk's upcoming speech indicates that this may be his last hurrah in the story.
The cover story suggests a connection between giants and Wano, adding to the world-building of the arc.
The skull/sword of Onigashima raises questions about the history and origins of the island and Kaidou's Oni race.
The artwork and dynamic action scenes in the chapter are a real high point since Oda's eye surgery.
We speculate on the communication abilities of the five elders and Jon theorizes Luffy's potential battle with them could lead to his possible capture and being summoned to Marijoa by Imu.
