As was the case with his death, many who bore witness were inspired by Roger and aspired to become great Pirates or Navy Solders. It only took him a few years […] More
Is Figarland Garling the one who gave Whitebeard the scar? Since his introduction, Saint Figarland Garling has been associated with Shanks. Many have also theorized that Figarland is the one who scarred Whitebeard. In Chapter 434 when we see Shanks meet Whitebeard for the first time, Whitebeard says “When I look at your face, it makes […] More
Akainu vs Dragon is Imminent Some may have already picked up on this, but it seems that this arc has set up the Original Admirals Trio vs the Monkey D. Trio. Firstly, we had Aokiji (and part of the Blackbeard Pirates) against Garp and the new age marines. Then we have Kizaru attempting to assassinate […] More
What Does the “D” Stand for in One Piece? The “Will of D.” is a mystery surrounding some people who have the initial “D.” in their names. Let’s see the possible meanings of D.: 1 – Dawn It’s the most obvious one, a lot of people already thought about it since the first chapter of […] More
The first time Whitebeard was introduced in the story, he was an old man attended by nurses and attached to medical support. We immediately get told he is sick, considering Shanks says he brought healing water as a gift to their meeting, but at first we think it’s just his old age making him weak. […] More
This is what Oda has set up since the start. On the last page spread, it seems it’s set up who will be in the final fight. Also interesting that Luffy and Blackbeard are next to each other. Any bets on alliances? Surely they won’t go free-for-all, but there are also so many of them […] More
Who is the shaded character in the final spread? And can any parallels/connections that can be drawn between mirrored characters be treated as intentional? THE FIGUREAs others have pointed out, the figure’s sword is very similar to Shanks’ Gryphon. Further than that though, it is one of a very short list of swords that appears […] More
There has been a long-standing theory that Shanks has a twin. To recap. In this 2019 interview, Oda was asked about there being “two of Shanks”. He could have said no… but instead he left it up to interpretation. Question: “You might’ve been asked this thousands of times already, not sure, but is Shanks two […] More
Imu’s Devil Fruit Can Nullify the Power Of All Devil Fruits In this theory you will see how we ultimately conclude what Devil Fruit (yes, devil fruit) does Imu possess. The Arrow In the page where Cobra mentions Nefertari Lili’s full name we can see that an arrow shoots through the room, going through Cobra […] More
The Reason why Shanks announced it’s time to claim the ONE PIECE There is a lot of mystery surrounding Shanks’ character and he has way too less screen time for anyone to predict something like this. Right? However, there have been a lot of subtle hints surrounding him which made me think in this direction. […] More
I am seeing this common misconception show up again now that Kid vs. Shanks has been animated. I see a lot of people saying “Kid had no option but to attack the Red Hair Pirates as Shanks was not letting him go without handing over his Poneglyph rubbings” or “Shanks never intended to let Kid […] More
Is Red Haired Shanks Evil or Good? Take a look at what Shanks does right before he destroys Kid. 1 – He tells the fleet to withdraw to protect them (and Elbaf). 2 – He asks, ‘Has he had enough time to heal since Wano?’ which indicates, not only does he know what went down, […] More
