Will Franky Survive The Final Saga?

Saturn returns to the battlefield following Kuma’s blow, teaming up with Kizaru to take their enemies off the board. Luckily, before the pair can eradicate Kuma, Franky and Sanji are able to make a much-needed rescue at the last minute. Unleashing a Radical Beam that blew a hole through Saturn, Franky is blown back by Kizaru’s power only to see Saturn quickly heal his wounds. Aiming to unleash a Buster Call upon Dr. Vegapunk’s island, Franky and the other Straw Hats have their work cut out for them.

For those hoping to see Franky in Netflix’s live-action adaptation, they might be waiting for some time. The upcoming second season will most likely stay true to the source material, meaning that the likes of Tony Tony Chopper and Nico Robin. Should One Piece’s new series be successful, we might just one day see the cyborg Straw Hat Pirate make an appearance.
