This will also be a great way to produce different work that caters to western audiences. 

World Piece will be making its debut this June, established by the publishing company Viz Media. The American manga is authored by Josh Tierney and illustrated by Agroshka

Viz has produced many popular titles like Dragon Ball, One Piece, Inuyasha, Bleach, Naruto. So we should look forward to this upcoming release being another masterpiece.
