If Elbaf goes for about 3-4 years, then the story will not end soon. Even assuming Luffy finds the final Road Poneglyph in this arc, and goes to claim it a piece Immediately after, there is the final battle to consider.

If there are more arcs between Elbaf and when Luffy becomes the Pirate King, then fans can rest assured. a piece There are about seven years left to give readers.
