  One Piece Chapter 1160: The God Valley Incident Begins

  Yamato’s Cover Story

  Blackbeard’s Buccaneer Heritage

  Chapter 1160 confirms that the Davy family are Buccaneers, the same race as Bartholomew Kuma. This suggests that Marshall D. Teach (Blackbeard) may be the last surviving Buccaneer—assuming Kuma is effectively “gone.”

• Saturn’s comment on Egghead Island about Blackbeard’s “special bloodline” ties directly to this revelation.

• For the first time, we also catch a glimpse of Blackbeard’s mother, depicted as disheveled yet elegant.

  Dragon’s Role in the Native Hunting Competition

  The scene shifts to the Celestial Dragons’ bloodsport, where slaves are forced to wear targets on their backs and hunted for points by both Celestial Dragons and the God Knights.

• When a Celestial Dragon attempts to shoot Kuma, Dragon kills him first, intervening in the brutal game.

• This moment ties back to the cliffhanger from Chapter 1159, where Shanks’ mother pleaded with Dragon to protect her children’s future. Her face remains unrevealed.

• Dragon’s actions suggest he was en route to save Shanks and Shamrock when he encountered Kuma.

  Legendary Clashes on the Horizon

  Flashbacks to Chapter 1096 remind us of the epic arrival of the Rocks Pirates, Roger Pirates, and Garp at God Valley. With this setup, we are closer than ever to seeing the legendary showdown: Garp and Roger vs. Rocks.

  The God Knights Appear

  Chapter 1160 introduces the God Knights in full for the first time. Among them is a mysterious warrior resembling a horned Yeti. The total number of members remains undisclosed for now, keeping fans on edge.

  Chapter Ending and Break Notice

  The chapter concludes with Dragon successfully saving Shanks and Shamrock, marking a turning point in the flashback. However, One Piece will be on break next week.

  Final Thoughts on Chapter 1160

  One Piece Chapter 1160 raises more questions than it answers. Blackbeard’s Buccaneer heritage finally explains his “strange body,” but the mystery deepens around Dragon’s interventions and Shanks’ origins.

  The God Valley flashback has only just begun, and with the appearance of the God Knights and the looming clash between Roger, Garp, and Rocks, the hype for the upcoming chapters is higher than ever. The hype for Chapter 1161 has never been higher.
