I think there will be 2 more arcs. Depending on how fast the events pick up now.

Predictions:

Marley Arc ends at 104

Next Arc: Begins at 102  and ends at 118

Last Arc: Begins at 119 and ends at 139

Just a prediction pulled out of my booty lol

But I can see the series ending at 150. It's not gonna be full action, there will be answers, wars, conferences, and flashbacks I could see it going up to approximately chapter 150, especially since a lot of these latest arcs have been made up of 20 chapters. Uprising went from 51-70. Return To Shiganshina went from 71-90. I can see Marley going from 91-110, and so on. That would make the manga officially end on February 2022.

I think the next arc will show us much more Zeke, including fights against him, particularly Eren vs Zeke and Levi vs Zeke. I think he'll be the primary "antagonist" of that arc, being protagonist Eren's dark foil and rival and all. Then the next arc can be Eldians and Paradis vs the rest of the world that hates and wants to completely wipe out all Eldians (which hopefully won't include Marley anymore), and by the time we're late in that arc, Eren and Zeke could be super close and fully working together (after much interation and relationship development between those 2 obviously), activating the full power of the Founding Titan and even sending out the titans inside the walls and everything. After the final battle is over, Zeke might fulfill his promise to "save" Eren, including freeing him (and hopefully also many others) from the Curse of Ymir by permanently extinguishing the titan powers (which would also leave the rest of the world with no further reason to fear and hunt down Eldians), making the ultimate final sacrifice with his (Zeke's) very own life in the process, the hardest sacrifice for Eren to accept and one that leaves him with a broken heart that takes a long time to heal.

It's also possible the arc after this current Marley arc will be much longer than any other arc before, being worth ~9-10 volumes, or ~36-40 chapters, effectively combining everything else remaining into one big arc.
