I don't know if you guys have heard this but in an interview Oda said, that in the end of OP there is going to be a war, so great that it would make the Marineford arc look like a small trailer! and the Strawhats will be on the center of this war! Of course.
thx for sharing
but its alright I mean it wouldn't be satisfiening if its just a sweet lovly happy end right. it have too go down with a actionful bloodshetting
fight ;D
seeing Oda-sensei talking about the ending like that makes me feel so excited about it
I know I have to wait for nearly 10 years but I think it's worth it
the story about this cancer boy is really touching
Oda is really a great person
I just hope the kid doesn't think about spoiling the ending anytime later
honestly,I think that article is fake,according to people that site is famous to spread fake infos.Plus if Oda truly did that it would be highly shared on Japanese news/forums/sites before reaching that site.

Now imagine how big will be One Piece on the future
That bit about the ending with a huge war is nothing new. He said that some time ago. I believe his exact words were that Marineford felt like a side trip compared to what he has in store for the final war arc. As a believer in the Inherited Will theory, I was quite sure that would be the case long before he made that interview so his statement just further reinforces my belief in that theory.
Kdramastars is not a valid source for anything. They frequently report groundless false rumors without providing adequate sources for their information and just about every time I hear a ridiculous rumor or "news" about something that I already know is false because it contradicts countless valid and reputable sources that state otherwise, it always comes from Kdramastars. I don't doubt that Oda is nice enough to do something like this, I'm just saying take any "news" coming from that site with a large mound of salt.
