No Oda said the new world saga WILL BE THE LAST. Since there are like maximum four arcs per saga it means that it is nearing the end. In retrospect there were like six arc in the East Blue Saga, then you had the Barougue Works, Skypiea, Water Seven and White Beard War Arcs, this is the last sage which mean these upcoming arcs are the last ones
