Spoiler One Piece Spoiler Hints Discussion

I don't believe that God Valley was a trap, since it's only thanks to Ginny's tip-off that the pirates find out about the competition.

And from the way Kong talks to Garp about it, it doesn't seem like it was intentional.

 

[baditz]

Yes.

She was an expert at it, and if this was a trap it would have been too just Rocks but Roger also showed up and Garp only came after he found out about that.
And in Kuma's flashback the WG all seems surprised.

Plus I doubt the CDs would be there otherwise besides the HK's or the Gorosei for that matter since they like to avoid getting their hands dirty as much as possible.

Yes, they plan to kill Rocks, at that time they only care about Rocks,,
Like u say they dont diety their hand, but why Saturn in GV doubt he want go there just to enjoying the sight, all GV must be big trap for Rocks, n using CD in festival n jewel crew as a bait.

Rocks came there for his "treasure" and the DF that's all. The CDs wouldn't have been required for bait.

Didn't think he'd pop up here lol.

Yes the prize are the bait but They need the "event", its the set up, how can they set a big trap with top guard to lure if there no event?

Wow you're really reach with that.
Rocks would have come no matter what. There be no need for the CD to be set up.
And if the CD just being that expendable then Imu would not have needed them around that long.

Anyway that's just agree to disagree and move on.

 

[Epic_Rider]

I just don't want it to be Simp Piece...

You're about a thousand chapters too late...

What if Shakky is actually Teach’s mother? That would give Xebec a real motive.

We know where Teach was born and it's not Hachinosu, so that's out.

They could just fake the event, why bring any actual CD's there then.

Yeah u rigth they will, its my personal theory anyway, we will found out soon, either in this chap or next chap.

We haven't seen much of Moria for awhile honestly, not since Kuma's flashback, but I'm not sure what relevance he'd have here. At this point, he'd be a kid.

--- Double Post Merged, Aug 25, 2025 ---

The idea of God Valley being just a trap for Rocks doesn’t really add up. Why waste the triennial Hunting Competition for that and put Celestials in danger?
So if they really did kidnap Shakky as bait to lure Xebec in, just so Harald could take him out, then it's obviously somewhere else and that suggests there’s a lot more to the story.

And honestly, I’m convinced there was a traitor among the Rocks Pirates.

If that were the case, it would have been mentioned when Blackbeard invaded Amazon Lily while Shakky was there, but neither of them mention this.

Could be we'll see kid Moria. It'd be interesting if he too was a God Valley survivor, which is how he ends up with Thriller bark later.

 

[john ellis]

Maybe we’re touching into cross guild

This would explain how he got some of the bodies like Captain John. He'd know GV and probably know where the bodies are.

[ShinobiWrath]

Does this have to do with the cover page?

[Trip_LLL]

No actual battle scenes?

So, I'm gonna guess care bears is just the buckle up idea. I think we've seen him use this one before. Also, I think it's funny that Redon, somewhere on his computer, has a folder of Care Bears gifs.

A character fluffing their hair. It must be a character literally doing that. Maybe there's someone with a character tick who does that. Maybe Shakky does it as her gimmick thing.

Conqueror's haki. Probably legit a shot of haki bursting forth from an island type shot


No fighting could be something that the Rocks crew or Rocks has to tell themselves.

I'm not really sure what to make of the Oden speaking and Moria shot. Moria and the Gecko pirates must be one of the crews coming to the island.

I'm not even going to try with the Worstgen ones XD

Why would Oden be involved in this if he hadn’t joined Roger yet

 

[Federicoxxx]

It is interesting.. all of the Moria Hints... seems to be his Young version. .... so by godvalley he had... 12 since he born 50 years ago...¿ Wonder what the hell is he doing on this chap ? at that age?

[baditz]

So xebec are the lurking legend?
If he is a "lurking", its not mean he still alive in current timeline?

Since the moment he dropped his “I‘ll be back“ right in Imu‘s face I suspect him to still be around. So I think it‘s possible. I just hope he wasn’t turned into a slave or somehow absorbed by Imu. But since he is from a D. family I still think he should be/ should have been immune to Imu’s mind control spells.

I wouldn't recommend just taking Rocks as the lurking legend. Given the timing of the interview where the term came out and the translation of that interview, it could just as easily be Imu or Nika the mythological figure. (Edit: Not Nika. Just reread.)


EDit: More context.
Jump Festa 2018, so it came out in Dec 2017.
( By the end of next year, I'll be introducing one of the legends lurking in the world of ONE PIECE to you. It's going to be the biggest enemy Luffy and his friends have ever had, and it's going to be the one that will stand in front of us. Whitebeard may be involved. Oh, I've talked too much. )

So... the whitebeard part implies Rocks. Without the whitebeard part, you could more think it's Imu. The timing lends a bit more to Imu. But that may just be because Oda didn't predict himself right.

I would rule out Imu, too. Since Imu is keeping their very existence a secret from practically everybody.
