That would be interesting. Another fallen Tenryuubito like Doffy.

Maybe Roger took a baby Shanks with him in the aftermath of this incident, then allowing him on his ship as cabin boy once he was old enough? :hee

Baby Shanks' first scream was a full-power CoC and it impressed Roger so much he decided to take him along. Maybe. Something like that.

Who knows? Zehahahah! Perhaps there is a connexion between him and me and God's Valley!

I don't think so, because Shanks says he was born on an island in West Blue.

Yes and that's the flaw in that theory.
I still believe it to be a good theory, I do think Shanks being a CD is the most plausible cause of his appearance in Mary Geoise, just...

Maybe Shanks isn't a legal child. Typically Pirates have no parents...

But I also don't think it necessarily has to do anything with the Rocks Era being 38 years ago.

Rather I think "saving the CDs relates to whatever conclusions can be taken from lost history. Think about it, the Riu Poneglyph won't just be: “The CDs did bad stuff, they are evil". We already know that, no one needs to find out. There is going to be a twist, something that throws you off your chair, something that needs "a conclusion", something that has possibly to do with "the right time".

I think Xebec might have actually found One Piece or an Ancient Weapon, drawn the wrong conclusion, and thus needed to be stopped. Having Kaido, Linlin, Newgate, Shiki and other famous Pirates under his wing, Xebec already is a proto-pirate king, meta-wise.
Think about it, why do Linlin and Kaido know about Road Poneglyphs despite being unable to read them? Linlin had hers before Roger...
And why did Roger even search for it in the first place, where did he get the idea of One Piece from, if everyone now got this idea from Roger?
Would explain why God Valley has disappeared, it was destroyed because Xebec left his secret there.
If Xebec is Blackbeard's role model that would explain the weird archaelogy hobby.
Blackbeard tries to find something because Xebec found something.

Wasnt one piece specifically rogers treasure that he left on a certain place ?

I originally thought it means jewels, gold and so maybe cause in the opening they show a pile of it when one piece is mentioned. Certainly many pirates at least think so when they want it so bad.

What if that egg in rogers ship have something to do whats in raftel ?
I highly would debate that it's just treasure as what we consider treasure, but also stuff on the Void Century and stuff. Rayleigh said by the time they learned everything, it was too late for them.

But Shanks could be a Tenryuubito, but also if he was, why is he free? Wouldn't Tenryuubito be against piracy and stuff, unless Shanks has blackmail stuff on them? I think Shanks is probably just highly respected, especially since he seems to be a peaceful person?

This part. Great idea though. The thing is, rare shit happens over and over again in OP. Even the voice of all things >.>
I never liked this criticism. The setting dictates what "rare" thing is "common". The entire beginning of the story was in East Blue, where DF were nearly considered myths. Cut to Paradise, and they're a bit less rare. Cut to the New World, and everyone and their mother has one (sometimes literally). CoC and VoAT have had similar arcs of commonality- the story has had nearly a thousand chapters to get to the point where the story revolves around these high-level powers, Oda's earned it.

Maybe God's Valley was in West Blue? Or did they say otherwise? :blink

And if Shanks knows the Truth of the Void Century, +power to avoid getting Shigan'd, then that alone would secure him whatever position he really wants, bar living in Marijois.

To me, Shanks as a CD just seems like a rehash of Doflamingo. There can be that narrative where Shanks met Roger and hence his life turned while Mingo's didnt, but i am not sure if sympathy towards CD is a good idea.
Furthermore, it kinda suggests that the only reason Gorosei respected Shanks is because he is a celestial dragon.

I like the theory of it, but i doubt it.

I kinda don't want Shanks or Buggy to have a special backstory. They were just dumb kids that got swept up in piracy out of the sheer romance of freedom, like Luffy. For that matter I kinda don't like Luffy having a super-special backstory with excellent genes- it sorta detracts from the romance.

I kinda hate this trope in manga and anime. Why can't you just be someone normal. Kinda like in real life, where people become famous/wealthy etc. without necessarily having any special backstory or anything.

Same for Teach, I'll like him to be a calculator and no a gene from Xebec. Shanks for me, he is just working with the Gov.

I'd be totally fine with Teach just being a huge fanboy of Xebec. Ever since Whitebeard told him he "wasn't the one Roger is waiting for", maybe he turned his interest from Roger toward Xebec.

Wait, what if Teach is one of the rescuees from God VAlley? He's 40 years old so if any theory about Shanks can hold, it can apply to him too

We know he lived his life in poverty just like Mingo did. Shanks was speaking about him to the gorosei as well...
