The Revelation of Shank's Family Name!!
• The Revelation of Shan...

Can't wait for Shanks' brother Shunks to be introduced
You know we're gonna be in the one piece end game when his cousin Shucks shows up
What about his uncle St.Spanks the Great
Yea stabs will just as crazy as shanks
And his Uncle Shrenk
@@Rhodes09 idk I hear stabs is quite the poet
It's a nice parallel if Godknight Figarland is Shanks' dad. Last chapter he said "those who protect scum are worse than the scum they protect" while serving a power he believes higher than himself (Imu). Meanwhile we see Shanks protects crews weaker than himself since they are his underlings and Shanks will always protect his friends from anyone.
He's the grandfather. Shanks' father is the silhouette we see.
So what I'm curious about, does shanks have a young brother or cousin, because I'm wondering if shanks knows he's a figarland and that's why he visited the gorosei, or if it's a relative who is most likely a gods knight too and wants shanks to be killed as he's considered a disgrace of the family for being a pirate and protects those weaker
It's crazy how Oda can hide an entire different side of a character by just omitting their last name for the majority of the story. First Sanji and now Shanks?
Sanji family ain't that hype
@@davidortiz3094 Sure, its not that we almost had a literal war becase of them or nothing and then learned that not only is cloning a thing...but open genetic manipulation.
@@davidortiz3094 noone claimed they were hype
@@davidortiz3094 not the point lol its still a HUGE new side to Sanji's character
We already knew something was weird with Shanks the moment the Gorosei actually took the time to meet with him.
How much of Shanks protecting weak pirate crews comes from the goodness in his heart, and how much of it comes from the well of 'screw you dad!' energy that i'm sure we're going to get to see.
Nono, his way of saying "screw you dad" IS being a good hearted dude lol
How familiar with Garling is Shanks actually likely to be? Garling might more or less be a total stranger to Shanks for all that we know.
@@kura4674 yeah I think that too, im sure he knows about it but doesnt have to care at all honestly
How would Shanks even know his father? He was found in a treasure chest when he was still a baby and he was raised by Roger.
@@monkeydgarp9663 We don't know how Shanks knows, but we can surmise that he does know. At the very least the Gorosei are shown being aware of Shanks' status as a Figarland in Film Red and we can assume Shanks is aware of it himself since he requested a meeting with the Gorosei.
I think Garling is Shanks' uncle. I think his parents were the compassionate ones who were focused on saving their child, while Garling was the arrogant ruler charging into battle with Rocks.
Or! Shanks' mother was one of Garling's slave wives and hid him in the treasure chest. She might have originally been from West Blue.
@@cooperalt7980 tbf god valley could’ve been in the west blue
My head canon until we get more info is that Garling's daughter had an affair on her husband with Rocks, what was suppose to be a one time thing turned into a pregnancy. She told her husband who decided to raise the kid anyways but Garling overheard it somehow, he clearly doesn't like helping other below him so a half blooded pirate disgusts him. I think he kills the husband to make an example and put his daughter in her place, Rocks shows up blah blah, Garling goes to battle before dealing with baby Shanks and she puts him in a chest, hoping a pirate life is better than death. Either way it turns out though I'll be excited to finally learn it.
Why would they be compassionate ones?
@@totallynottwo5727then one piece will go down as the greatest story with cuck dads☠️.
Whitebeard didn't have his scars yet during the Oden flashback so unless Oda messed up and forgot to draw them, he didn't get them from the god valley incident which happened before his encounter with Oden
Could be a "found family" type situation with the West Blue thing. Shanks just decided he really liked an island/town in the west and wanted to call it his home.
23:25 Your hometown doesn't need to be the place where you were born. Nami's hometown is definitely Cocoyashi Village, for example. Let's say Shanks was born in God's Valley. When he is about 1 Roger gets his gacha chest with Baby Shanks and says "hey, we cannot keep a baby here, it's fucking dangerous. Let's leave him with my friends in the West Blue for the time being, we'll pick him back up when he can fend for himself a little better"
ehh, for me at least it seemed like shanks was always on that ship but idk
@@rakionyellowmind2293 Maybe, but that's not shown. There's no evidence neither saying he was nor saying he wasn't. The youngest we see Shanks is when he is reading a paper with Buggy on the same chapter Oden's boards Whitebeard's ship, and they are 9 at the point, but it states it's "In another sea", so one could easily argue that it's the West Blue and Roger just picked Shanks back up, or Paradise, and they just picked up Buggy while returning from the West
@@AnyMEmdq really? I didn’t know he said that, if he did it’s really likely they did what you said.
@@rakionyellowmind2293 Say what? "in another sea"? Let's say the narrator says it. It appears in a box, last page of... 964, I believe. It's the chapter that introduces Toki, so if you check her first appearance in the wiki you'll get the exact number
Tenryubito are actually quite strong based on what we have seen in the story. Fighter types ranked amongs the strongest and even Non-fighters like Charlos have insane durability.
Yep. Any normal person attacked by a serious punch from Luffy would be obliterated even if it was a weaker version of himself 😂
If Garling indeed hid Shanks away during the God Valley Incident, it could be that Roger "heard" Shanks' cries or something of the sort, we know he possesses the "Voice of All Things", it would make sense he literally heard Shanks and took him in as his real father
Observation Haki would cover this.
@@radaro.9682 I guess... But what I had in mind, is if there was a Palace of some sort for the royalty, Garling would have hid Shanks in there. However the Battle of God Valley would obviously take place in some sort of battlefield, away or nearby to the castle. In this instance, at the end of the battle, or in-between, Roger could have been hearing Shanks' voice and went in there to retrieve the Treasure Chest because he could hear it, in which case he would later find it to have Shanks inside
@@lucasakira9962 i don't think voice of all things works that way, it is simple as it is someone stole or found a treasure chest brought it to the ship and they get a suprise.
Day 81 of asking for a discussion video on Vice Admiral Tsuru he did one for Garp and Sengoku let the Marine Trio finnaly be completed
you missed one day. #fakefan
#fakefan
That video would be pointless. We know minimal information about her, and he's talked about fruit in depth multiple times.
Your asking for a 30 min video on a character we literally know nothing about.
@@dkdadon9863 there are already videos like that on the channel lol. TBONE recently for example
One simple Note i have to add:
Oda already revealed who scarred Whitebeard, in Databook Yellow (page 170 in the english version ) he says „That scars are evidence of Whitebeards battles with Roger and a Memory“ ( Not a Word to Word translation) and in the Databook it also shows the Panel from Chapter 434 where Shanks and Whitebeard talk about the Scar.
Listen dude Oda contradict even vivre card which he was involved more to make do you think he won't change things from databooks if he has interesting idea for main story
@@DaityaGod Yes Oda did redcon somethings he said in Databooks ( cant think of an example in the vivre cards ) . but as long Oda doesnt contradict it in the manga itself its still canon. (since oda even referenced the databook in an sbs multiple times ). Still yeah if he would write a chapter explaining how the judge godknight scared whitebeard that would be canon , but right now the only canon statement we have on those scars is that roger made them.
@@DaityaGod If you don't trust the word of the guy who made the damn manga, whose word do you trust? Oda could change the story later on, sure, but as of now the one explanation given was that it was Roger.
5:10 since chopper is related to kureha, I think this nominates chopper as a potential conqueror hakis user and as shank's nephew
This guy is like a best friend whos never met me
Figarland means land of the Fig. Fig trees have a lot of religious (Christianity, Judiaism, and Islam) significance. Notably, in the Garden of Eden, after Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, it was used to cover their naked bodies. This could tie into Devil Fruit's origins, somehow. Also, in Judiaism it is more or less a symbol that represents the rejection of the messiah. In one piece it could mean that the Figarland family could have been those who rejected the Sun God and sided with the world nobles.
Thank you for the video! I always enjoy watching your videos!
Rogers Sword is called Ace and is one of the 12 Supreme Grade Swords
Shanks for the video Tekking , as fun as always.
Yay tekking upload
hey Tekking I think you are my favourtite youtuber of all time. Thank you and have a good day sir
Im a huge fan of the idea of Garling Figarland but the design, I see it and all I can see is Mac Tonight
He's either Shank's father or his uncle. I could see Shank's father dying at God Valley and his brother becoming the family head.
Strong Lion King vibes in this theory but there could be something to it.
@@Tharsix36 It doesn't even need to be foul play, The Rocks Pirates are a menace. Dying to that collection of monsters isn't shameful in the least. In fact it might be a point of contention that Shanks father died, because he was strong enough to be seen as a threat and maybe his younger brother wasn't.
I really like how Shanks is the anthesis to what a Celestial Dragon is despite by all means being a “god”. He’s willing to get humiliated and laughed at (i.e. Higuma spills booze on him) whereas the Celestial Dragons are all about pride, looking down on others, and projecting an image of being “gods”. He also uses his overwhelming strength to protect those that cannot defend themselves (i.e. his fleet) instead of sitting at the top of the world and watching others suffer. He also views himself as equal to most people and would happily sit in a tiny bar in the East Blue and drink cheap booze with his mates and a village boy rather than living in luxury atop the Red Line.
He is one of the most human characters despite being a “god” by virtue of his birth, which means that he becomes living evidence that Celestial Dragons are as human as the rest of us. It really shows what impact Roger had on him and how nurture trumps nature, and he’s an example of how the Celestial Dragons could choose to be good people if given the right upbringing.
I really hope that he doesn’t turn out to be evil since that would undo all of his and circle back to the whole thing of “blood is everything” where if you are born to be evil, you’ll always remain that way, no matter who you’re raised by and what values you are taught. Thankfully most evidence seems to contradict this since he protected Luffy after Wano rather than killing him (like the Gorosei would have wanted), and because of the fact that he gave a member of the enemy of the Celestial Dragons (the D family) the key to defeating them (the Gomu Gomu No Mi).
@Great Peace Are you serious?
@Great Peace I'm obviously talking about it from an in-universe perspective. Like how if I discuss haki, I don't actually believe that human beings in our universe are able to shoot laser beams and see into the future.
I think Garling is his Grandfather, he looks as old as Kureha, I think his daughter was Shanks' mother and that Garling executed his own daughter for having a child with none other than Rocks D. Xebec. It was similar to the paramount war in that Rocks went to try to stop her execution. That was the ultimate taboo that he broke. Garling doesn't seem like the type to spare his own kin if he feels they have betrayed him or the Celestial Dragons as a whole in some way.
Whitebeard didnt have any scar through the whole Oden flashback, so it didnt happen at God's Valley.
Right now Roger is still the safect option.
Wonder what we'd be thinking if Film RED didn't have that random Figarland line
I would love if Kureha was somehow the previous ope ope fruit user but using the fruit doesn't actually kill the user but somehow removes the fruit from the user while granting them immortality as well (2 for the price of 1). I know it's laughably unlikely, but I'd be so happy because her phrase "wanna know the secret of my eternal beauty?" would have been crazy foreshadowing
Maybe she discovered the procedure and is a skilled enough doctor to be able to perform it without the ope ope fruit
Tekking using berserk references in one piece vids is something I never thought I needed until today
Love the video and keep up the great work tekking
Tekking should do a fan fiction short story competition during this break
They probably also are keeping Garp around because he's likely favored by some celestial dragons he saved at God Valley. Crack theory: maybe one of the celestial dragons he saved found out he had a son and wanted to set Dragon up with their daughter? An arranged marriage would've been a good instigator for Dragon turning away from his dad early on.
You had me cracking up at "Hanks"
I just interpreted shanks home in the west was where he lived between rogers execution and starting his crew
Tekking, that image of baby shanks from god valley is fan made. In the Volume 4 Billion booklet when Oda drew the Roger Pirates finding Shanks, he just drew a rough sketch. A fan made the version you show in the video haha
So ideas for videos while on chapter breaks, how about about mother flame, the future for the revolutionary army, as well as for vivi, predictions on when we get back to egghead Island, info videos on each of the individual gorosei!
When Sengoku was born Kureha was 62
Maybe, God Valley was in West Blue. And Garling may had another hairstyle, and red hair, 38 years ago.
Well for the the whole ‘Shanks coming from the West Blue’ thing, it could be that, like Tekking said in a previous video, Roger and Releigh found him in a chest and then sent him to be raised in an island in the West Blue before he joined up as an apprentice later. It could be that Shanks calls this island his hometown because this was the place where he grew up before his time on the Oro Jackson.
For me my "Hometown" is where I grow up not where I was born.
Given how Garling is moon shaped I think Garling could have the blood logia because of the lunar event known as blood moon or the fear paramecia because of Mars's moon Phobos which means fear
I like Tekkings theories because they often times have some kind of information I qoildnt otherwise know or think of that could be true or ends up becoming true.
God Valley may have been in The West Blue.... it would be the easiest solution between "Shanks is from the West Blue" and "Shanks is from God Valley". I don't remember if it was specified that it was in the Grand Line.
Every time Tekking says ‘Ara Ara’ it triggers my fight or flight response
I had just watched Artur's video about Chapter 1,086 upon starting to watch this vid. He theorized that Figarland's Moon-like haircut may actually be a reference to the Moon like the Five Elder Planets.
Kureha has the same cool shades as Garling as well 😮
How do we know God Valley wasn't in west blue and sake from there is rare and costly precisely because the island disappeared?
3:24 He puts his legs on like shanks put his arm on at times lmaooo
The meeting that Shanks had with the gorosei I bet that had something to do with Garling
If your talking about how he got into Mariejoise then yeah but Shanks came to "talk about a certain pirate."
@Haywood Lunsford Fair enough but if Garling & Shanks are relatives than that's probably got a lot to do with how he managed to enter Marie jois
@@pflynn12 yeah thats what I said. I think the certain pirate Shanks wanted to talk about was himself. I guess Shanks wanted to find out more about himself.
I’m I firm believer in the theory that the person in chapter 907 talking to the gorosei wasn’t Shanks but his twin brother who’s a god knight. It sounds outta left field but it kinda can’t be denounced at this point. Firstly, shanks has 2 very character specific features, his scars and missing arm, neither of which we seen in chapter 907, go check for yourself. Secondly, when they spoke they never once called him Shanks. Maybe that was just to keep the suspense for the last panel but still, it was never said. Plus their familiarity and casualness is a bit odd giving their standings, unless Shanks isn’t who we thought we were which is entirely possible. Lastly, I just realized myself that the new chapter 1086 surprisingly gives a bit more evidence. It shows us that the god knights (or at least just garland) wear a cloak similar to the one “shanks” wore in 907. So then I think that certain he wanted to talk about literally was shanks so it’s like a crazy plot twist. Idk as out there as it sounds the evidence got me hooked😂😂
A nice parallel that might be true as the Figarland family representing the moon might be that it starks as a contrast to the Kozuki. Both are symbolic to the moon while the Figarland are the dark side (standing with Nerona Imu) and Kozuki the lighted part (standing with Joyboy). Maybe they're destined to clash?
Ohara had a theory that all of the gods knights are from the Figarland family. That’s their role among the Celestial Dragons. I agree but I also think that Garling is the supreme commander because he is the patriarch. The other 8 knights are his wife, younger siblings, children, and niblings. Im also still in the camp that Shanks has a twin brother. I looked it up and Garling is German. It goes back to Charlemagne. So I think that Shanks’ real name is Figarland Charlemagne and his twin is Figarland Wayland (Wayland being Wayland the Smith, who was essentially Charlemagne’s right hand man.)
I don't know about the connection to Charlemagne but "Garling" is the low german (plattdeutsch) version of "Gerling".
"Ger-" is old high german (althochdeutsch) meaning "(throwing-) spear" while "-ling" is a suffix that means "the decendant / son / sucessor of", making Gerling "The decendant of the spear".
Some other names with the same scheme that came to my mind are:
Gerald = Ger- + waltan / waldan - old saxon (altsächsich) for "to administrate or to rule" - "The spear bearing ruler"
Gerhard / Gerhart = Ger- + harti - old saxon (altsächsich) for "hard / strong / powerful" - "The strong / powerful spear bearer / wielder".
if shank's mom would be sun and his dad moon shanks hair makes sense, like its the red of the sunset, the moment between sun and moon
The sword confirmed to be a Saijō Ō Wazamono wasn’t Gryphon, it was Ace, Roger’s Sword.
As for the God Valley thing, God Valley was never confirmed to be in the Grand Line. It could have been a place in the West Blue, which would be an interesting idea.
Whitbeard wouldnt care who Shanks family is because just like he told Ace, everyone is a children of the sea.
1:46 and The WG Commander-In-Chief Kong :D
Yo tekking can you remind me to buy one of shirts in your next video? I've been watching for years and never got around to it.
Devil's Luck Pirates week! You have your own characters with backstory and LORE! We need DnD OP videos for the crew for a whole week. How's that for video ideas!?
Shanks’ long lost brother, Stabs
Saint garling is what I wanted vegapunk to look like a badass old dude
Some of the discussions about the translations about Shanks in the treasure chest I've read implied, that the treasure Roger Crew got was the treasure the Rocks Pirates have stolen from the Celestial Dragons, before Garp and Roger arrived and that Shanks was intentionally kidnapped by Rocks Group. If that would be true, than Whitebeard would have known which child they kidnapped and thus who Shanks parents are.
Hometown doesn't nessesarily need to mean it's the town where you are born, but maybe the town you grew close to and you cherish. So, maybe that's how Shanks told Withebeard that they carry relativly same values and tried to build a connection threw this. Withebeard himself cared for Sphinx, although he grew up at that Island as comparison to Shanks, but Shanks saying "hometown" may aslo mean that although both know he is a born Celestrial Dragon, he choose to be a "normal" person in a normal town (as normal as a pirate might be)
Buggy’s love interest HAS to be Shanks’ sister 😂
Shanks being a celestial dragon or at least related to one makes sense as to why he could visit the gorosei without a problem
13:21 He could’ve just got it from Roger and he was saying that seeing Shanks reminds him of the old days, or even that Shanks in some ways reminds him of Roger so seeing him makes him think of him
Crescent moon beard and hair styled is to be considered a "punk" style like mohawks and liberty spikes
I think the silhouette from a few chapters ago of the holy knights could be Garling but what he looked like back during the God Valley incident. Maybe Shanks will also get really into moons and hair spray when he's older.
Should do a video on garps career/reception just his effect
We gotta remember that time shanks went to talk to the gorosei, i pretty sure that no pirate without connections to the celestial dragons would be "welcomed" at the room of authority
I personally like the idea that Shanks wasn't lying to Whitebeard, but that the island in the West Blue is his adoptive hometown for some reason. I think it really ties in well with the idea of inherited will in the story. As for the similarity to "that man", it could be something like a similar presence, or similar eyes or something that Whitebeard was picking up from Shanks.
What if god valley is in the west blue
@@GabrielPerk1ns Huh, hadn't thought of that. Not sure if it was ever directly stated anywhere that God Valley was in the New World!
@@couchpotato8729 also the west and north blue are on the new world side of the grand line so it would be technically easier for all those big name pirates to get to the west, especially when the rocks pirates had shiki who could theoretically float the ship over the calm belt to the west where I believe God valley is.
I enjoy how with Garling's design, now that his hair is white it looks like a regular cresent moon, but in the past it probably looked like a blood moon
If Shanks was born on God Valley, and grew up on Roger's ship. So when Shanks brings the Sake to Whitebeard, you could say, he lived there between his time of Roger's death and his time with this own crew. So maybe his hometown wasn't necessarily a lie however, Shanks making up a story to win over Whitebeard makes more sense
It's even weirder now that shanks can get a meeting with the five elder stars. You would assume he uses his father's/his own last name for that, but why would his father let him? Shanks is a pirate now and a yonko at that. You'd figure he be disowned or something
This assumes they are actually working together in some way already.
You really think they'd let an unaffiliated Yonkou that close to the rules of the world? Nah, he *has* to be working with them in some way.
As for the foreshadowing, we can say it started when we got to know Garp was known as "the Hero" and it had nothing to do with Roger. We got to know there was a story there, when we got to know it was God Valley, where him, fighting alongside Roger, saved the Celestial Dragons, so there are Celestial Dragons that used to live in God's Valley and not in Marie Geoise, so we knew immediately there's a different story there. Even if you don't include what we learn on Film Red about Shanks and Uta being basically part of a Pirate Gacha game where you find treasure chests with babies, and what baby you get is totally random, so if you cannot tie Shanks to these people, you know there's a story to be told, there, and we've known that since before Wano. Common sense also dictates, given how big assholes Charlos and his family can be, how big of an asshole Mjosgard himself was before going to Fishman Island, and how much of an asshole was whoever ordered the Tequila Wolf bridge to be build hundreds of years ago, that there needs to be someone to mediate in their internal disputes. It cannot be someone below them, because they are above everyone, so there needs to be a group formed from within their own ranks, like the Gorosei, that can exert authority. Yeah, nothing points at them being incredibly badass, sure, they could just be a bunch of "lawyers", but we don't need that to be foreshadowed.
Shanks probably has many hometowns in each ocean, even if they don't fly his flag
Kureha being connected to the celestial dragons makes sense because 1. She knows what the will of D is and 2. She was able to be at the reverie for some reason. Plus her castle parallels Pangea Castle. It makes a ton of sense.
She was at the reverie as company of dalton, part of the representatives of drum island. If I’m not mistaken
We all know conquerors haki could be passed down throughout the family, so if this guy related to Shanks his conquerors haki has to be crazy. I'm also sure that the sword is just not for looks. Figarland was also the king to God valley so he laid witness to his country being under siege by Rocks, he might have been the one to also call a buster call on his own country to have it destroyed, what if the Figarland family has protected the celestials since the beginning, something passed down from birth and only why he still on command is because shanks got taken away and raised as a pirate, plus in film red the gorosei didn't seem to want to anger that family, which goes to show that family power is very influential and could be one of the 19 he ascended to God hood
Maybe it's similar to how Fukurokuju served Wano, he served Wano the ruler did not matter. That's something a royal guard does with a royal bloodline. So maybe they always served house Nerona. The other option i can think of is that the Figarland family always served the royal house of the ancient kingdom and Imu married into it becoming the queen. I think Imu orchastrated a coupe so a royal guard turning on the king would be a perfect mirror to house Nefeltari and house Riku with there steadfast loyal royal guards.
@@w.8372 I'm just hoping they aren't trash like the tobi ropo, don't bring in new characters to be trash.
When shanks was born his father looked at him with Observation Haki with crazy future sight:"really a sea king? you go in a box for that"
Just throwing out the idea that Roger had Shanks raised in the west until he was old enough to join his crew. Wasn't that were Ace's mom was at? Maybe she raised Shanks and later they decided to have a child of their own.
25:35 I don't think Shanks made up a story. Yeah he was probably born on god's valley, but does that make it his hometown?
Luffy was probably not born in the Goa Kingdom, but foosha village is still his hometown. Maybe Shanks just settled down for a while in the West and chose this one village as his hometown.
Or Roger dropped him off there because he couldn't take care of an infant. Years later, when Roger checked up on the village, Shanks wanted to come along, paralleling Luffy. Only difference: Roger said yes.
This break is gonna be the death of me😭
in one piece scars or bodily injury might be genetic (or preordained based on lineage factor) in that garp, dragon, and luffy all have facial scars on left side of their face
I always read that scene between Shanks and Whitebeard as referring to Roger.
Shanks was on Roger's crew. And even Buggy thought that Shanks would follow in their captains shoes. Whitebeard could just saying that he sees the similarity between Shanks and Roger.
Whitebeard- Shanks are you related to Garling Figarland?
Shanks- how do you figar that?
Bro i cant wait to see shanks cousins franks, cranks, granks, dranks, lanks, and pranks. Pranks is the funny one btw
20:45 i would love this lmao
I'm almost certain the "Hometown" bit was a nod/wink to Whitebeard, and him not knowing who Shanks is would be a bit strange, given context. It's also a subtle enough diversion that the people nearby who don't know wouldn't pick up on the lie.
7:19 tbh every shonen manga does this, you had goku fighting a carrot man who was causing trouble in a small village and then 10 years later he’s fighting a space emperor with the power to destroy planets. Shonen is crazy
One Piece really respects the rule of "Fear the old man in a career where men die young" and military is certainly that kind of career so I expect Garling to be a monster.
I’ve always thought that whitebeard was referring to Roger and said that looking at shanks cuz shanks was on the crew and probably reminded him of Roger since they are alike
Ayo “Shanks has a wicked hot sister, who is a twin sister“ 😂😂
I hope St. Garling Figarland has Conquerors Haki, and that he can do some Divine Departures or something
I now think God Valley was the island where the Gods knights were raised and trained that’s why it was a target for the Rocks pirates
Matt is like, the official news anchor for One Piece in the west. And I wouldn't have it any other way.
Ok the main chapter is out and all the Elder Star have St. in front of their names. So the early release just didn't add it before. So all are Saint. So we have the Family of Nefertari, Donquixote, Nerona, Figarloand, Jaygarcia, Marcus, Topman, Ethanbaron, and Shephard. That right there 9 out of the 20 original Family named now.
If Shanks and Garland are both missing arms, that'd be very Star Wars. That'd be a neat parallel to Darth Vadar and Luke Skywalker.
Hanks be like: I Sell Kitchen Accessories
The only thing I can think about with Garling is that he looks like Mac Tonight
So why is everyone jumping to the conclusion that whitebeards scar was caused by shank's dad or someone related to him? Why couldnt he be referring to Roger when he's talking about the scar? Shanks is an adult at this point so it would be well known that Shanks was on Rogers crew. I'm not saying it isn't someone related to shanks but I've always been under the impression that he was talking about Roger there? Maybe it's been said somewhere that it wasn't Roger and I somehow missed it. Definitely lmk if it has. But for that interaction there I just feel like it was more of a Shanks/ Roger hype comment than foreshadowing.
14:00 Not necessarily someoe that "looks like", but someone Whitebeard can relate to Shanks, like Roger, for example, which would make more than perfect sense
Anyone else remember shanks meeting with the gorosei during reverie. And they said normally we wouldn't even entain the idea but since it's you. No just me.
A bit random but I was thinking about the Five Elder Stars devil fruits and when you said Bull Frog just maybe...could their Zoans be a Combo of two animals fused together creating a New Type called Chimera Zoans? 🤔
