The One Piece manga continues its flashback, with Chapter 1156 delivering some of the series’s most anticipated moments. As we dive deeper into the past, fans have been treated to a clash between two legends and the full scope of Rocks’s ambition. All signs point toward an epic confrontation at God Valley, and readers are eagerly awaiting One Piece Chapter 1157 to see the next reveal in a story that is shaping the present day world.
Chapter 1156 Recap: Idols, Icons and The Rocks Pirates
In One Piece Chapter 1156, titled “Idols” the legendary past came to life. We saw the Kuja Pirates led by their then Captain and her right hand, Gloriosa and Shakuyaku whose beauty captivated even the Roger Pirates. The chapter’s highlight was an epic clash between a young Gold D. Roger and Monkey D. Garp, showcasing their fierce rivalry and power. The flashback also revealed Loki’s backstory on Elbaf, detailing his admiration for Rocks D. Xebec. Finally the Rocks Pirates assembled on Hachinosu, with Rocks unveiling a sinister plan to overthrow the World Government using two Devil Fruits, the legendary Galilea Giants and the crucial assistance of King Harold.
What to Expect from One Piece Chapter 1157 (Predictions)
In One Piece Chapter 1157, the focus will likely shift to the aftermath of Rocks’s grand speech. With the Rocks Pirates fully assembled and their sinister plan revealed, the chapter is expected to follow their pursuit of the legendary Devil Fruits and the Galilea Giants or provide more details on the epic Roger and Garp clash.
Based on the clash in Chapter 1156, the next chapter is highly probable to expand on the legendary Roger vs. Garp battle, offering more detailed combat and insight into their rivalry. One Piece Chapter 1157 may also clarify the fate of the Kuja Pirates, particularly how Shakuyaku and Gloriosa escaped the chaos.
There is a possibility that the narrative will jump forward to the Rocks Pirates arrival on God Valley or the events leading up to it. The chapter may also return to Loki who is narrating this entire flashback to Hajrudin on Elbaf.
The flashback’s most thrilling mystery is the two Devil Fruits Rocks seeks. One is the legendary fruit on Elbaf, likely eaten by Loki. The second could be the Yami Yami no Mi or Gura Gura no Mi, connecting directly to Blackbeard’s future powers and hinting at the reasons behind Rock’s eventual downfall.
What are your theories? What were the two devil fruits that Rocks was seeking? And do you believe we will finally witness the full events of the God Valley incident in next chapter? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below!
