One Piece 1159: Dragon’s Marine Days, Shanks’ Fate, and the True Story of Rocks
As anticipated when Shakuyaku became relevant again, she was kidnapped on Hachinosu by Wang Zhi, who was secretly working with the World Government. He not only abducted her but also killed Don Marlon. By the end of the chapter, during the start of the infamous God Valley Native Hunting Competition, it’s revealed that Shakuyaku herself is the ultimate prize.
Dragon’s Past Revealed
One Piece Chapter 1159 delivers a shocking revelation: Monkey D. Dragon was present at God Valley as a Marine soldier. This raises the possibility of a long-awaited power reveal for him.
With Kuma, Ivankov, and Ginny also at God Valley, readers may finally witness the early seeds of the Revolutionary Army. Meanwhile, a young Morgans appears, leaking sensitive details of the incident to the world—hinting at the origins of his journalistic empire.
Shanks, His Family, and the Garling Threat
In Chapter 1158, fans caught a glimpse of Shanks and Shamrock’s mother. Chapter 1159 escalates this subplot as Figarland Garling attacks her, seeking to return the twins to Mary Geoise. He is ruthless and unrelenting, willing to use force to achieve his goal.
However, once the hunting competition begins, Dragon encounters her. In desperation, she pleads with him to save her children, possibly tying Shanks’ fate even closer to Dragon’s choices.
The Truth About Rocks D. Xebec
Perhaps the most groundbreaking reveal in Chapter 1159 is the truth about Rocks D. Xebec. His real name is Davy D. Xebec, and his true purpose for coming to God Valley wasn’t chaos or Shakuyaku—it was to protect his family, as the island was his homeland.
Rocks believed God Valley to be safe, but the Celestial Dragons enslaved Teach and his mother. This revelation adds depth to his character, showing that he wasn’t driven solely by destruction. Even Harald, who opposes him, feels sympathy and abandons the fight after hearing the truth.
Theories and Speculation
Chapter 1159 raises intriguing questions for fans:
-
Did Dragon personally place Shanks aboard Roger’s ship?
-
Does this new perspective on Rocks D. Xebec change how we view him compared to Gol D. Roger?
