One Piece

Oda’s past interview could confirm the two Shanks theory

The latest episode of ‘One Piece’ leaves us very close to knowing the truth.

One Piece’ is living its best moment, it seems unbelievable but it is the reality and it is that week after week Eiichiro Oda’s work leaves us with great moments and his chapter 1134 was no less. It was an excellent chapter full of great moments, but with a groundbreaking ending that shocked all readers. Just like in Egghead, when the Gorosei appeared in full, a black bolt of lightning falls on Elbaph, specifically in what looks like the throne room, and after seeing a summoning circle like the Five Elders, two figures appear, and one of them is completely familiar to us: Shanks?

The face is instantly recognizable, Shanks, but what if it wasn’t? The strange image of the God’s Knights shown to us some time ago raised many doubts because of a recognizable silhouette, is Shanks a villain? His meeting with the Gorosei in chapter 907 made us doubt it, but now it seems that that scene from years ago was something that was always there, theorized about, but not believed possible: Shanks has a twin brother, and Oda showed us that some time ago, hiding the left side of his face, the scar Blackbeard gave him that clearly distinguishes them, and his left arm.

In 2019, Eiichiro Oda was interviewed by Fischer’s, a popular YouTube channel in Japan, and was asked if there were two different Shanks, and Oda declined to answer the question. Soon we will know much more, originally Shanks was a member of the Figarland family, the events of God Valley made his life take a very different course from that of his possible brother, a Tenryubito and a prominent part of one of the most important families of the World Government.

‘One Piece’ and secrets that are about to be revealed.

Who is the other person? A woman about whom absolutely nothing is known, who is presumed to be part of the God’s Knights, the order that works for the world government and that until recently had Saint Figarland Garling as its supreme commander. Beyond the theories, we know little, but who knows what surprise Oda will bring us, and if this character is connected to someone else, could it be Nami? Her origin is unknown beyond being a war orphan.

After this appearance, many are wondering, can this demonic summoning circle appear anywhere in the world? Or must there be special conditions for it to do so? This all seems to be the work of Imu, the secret leader of the World Government, so perhaps in the future we will learn more details about whether this is due to some sort of pact with his character, or whether he would be able to do this with anyone.
