The Egghead arc marked the beginning of the series’ final saga, and Eiichiro Oda has been on a roll with revelations. With the epic series almost nearing its end, fans have been coming up with wild theories about the stories and the events.

While some fan theories are quite old, other theories are relatively recent. One such fan theory is concerning the infamous Egghead Island. The Egghead Arc, also referred to as the Future Island Arc is the first story arc of the Final Saga and the ninth story arc of the second half of the series.
