One Piece has dropped another bombshell of a chapter, and the creator is showing a behind the scenes look at how the cover art for Chapter 1113 of the manga came together! One Piece's manga is now in the midst of the manga's wildest turn of events yet as the Egghead Arc has reached a new turning point, but you would never know it seeing any of the arc's official cover pages. Like every other chapter in the past, series creator Eiichiro Oda either showcases what other characters are doing at the same time as the intense story is unfolding, or fulfills requests from fans. 

That was the case for the cover art for One Piece Chapter 1113 as Oda was given the request to illustrate all of the Straw Hats as chess pieces with Nico Robin serving as the player. It's here that Oda actually fulfilled that ask and showed off what a full One Piece chess set could look like. But in the behind the scenes look at what came about with the actual cover art for the chapter, it seems Oda went through a number of drafts before settling on the final design. Check it out in action below.
