One Pieceis full of exciting characters. Each has a story that engulfs the entire fandom. Eiichiro Oda’s storytelling and character designs are the second best thing about him. The first is the mysteries. Even after running for more than two decades,One Piece’s popularity is still on the rise. The main reason for this is the mysteries. While the mangaka takes his time to reveal the answers, fans often spin new theories.
The biggest secret is One Piece’s true nature. But recently, another mystery seems to headline the news. The last panel ofOne Piecechapter 1121 saw all the potential participants in the upcoming war. While most of them were known faces, there was a shadowy figure among them. The fans could not decipher who it was, but their sword looked like Gryphon. With that information in mind, the fans are speculating that it could be Shanks’ twin brother.
Shanks Is Eiichiro Oda’s Next Target InOne Piece
Eiichiro Oda takes up one character at a time and reveals all their secrets. The Egghead Island arc saw Bartholomew Kuma’s entire past. Now, it might be Shanks’ turn.One PieceChapter 1121officially confirmed the participants of the final war. Luffy, Blackbeard, Shanks, Sabo, etc., were present. But there was also a shadowy figure on the bottom right side. They were carrying a sword that matched Shanks’ Gryphon.

A YouTube channel, Ohara, speculated that it might be Shanks’ twin brother. He said,“Is he Shanks’ twin brother. It’s possible. Or he just looks a lot like him and is actually his older brother.”It also matches Figarland Garling’s sword’s hilt. Since Shanks is Figarland Garling’s son, it points strongly toward the shadowy figure being his brother.
On top of that, he also mentioned that it might have been the mystery person who visited the Gorosei in Mariejois. Since it was pretty odd to see the Gorosei clearing their schedule to meet an infamous pirate. He also talked about Oda sensei’s foreshadowing skills. Figarland Garling and the mystery figure have specific panel placement, with Shanks being on the mystery figure’s side.
The one who met the Gorosei also did not possess the scar. Moreover, he might be the one to lead the God Knights since Figarland Garling is pretty old. The latter might have a similar role to a Fleet Admiral, to oversee things from a distance. For now, all these are speculations. But if the mysterious figure is indeed Shanks’ brother, it would be one of the best revelations ever.
The Race To Laugh Tale Is On
Dr. Vegapunk’s announcement has officially rang the bell for the final battle.Eiichiro Odahas also revealed the participants. While the Egghead Island is still ongoing, Monkey D. Luffy is more than likely to come out victorious against the Gorosei. The final battle will choose the first one to reach Laugh Tale. It will be the most important arc in the anime’s history.

Fans can slowly feel that One Piece is heading towards its end. Thelast Road Poneglyphis also missing. Several things need to be answered.
