Shanks was not the one who stopped Kaido .?

When the battle to free Ace from the clutches of the Marines was going on between the Navy, the Whitebeard Pirates, and Luffy, there were reports of Kaido trying to reach Marineford to take on Whitebeard himself. Kaido wanted to battle and defeat Whitebeard, which is why he decided to take advantage of the situation of the Paramount War, but evidently, he had to face Shanks.It was revealed that Shanks fought against Kaido and King, one of the three All-Stars of the Beasts Pirates. The clash of the two Emperors of the Sea was certainly a big deal, but the even more shocking thing was how Shanks somehow managed to force the strongest creature in One Piece to drop his plan and go back to Wano.However, when Shanks made an appearance on Marineford to stop the war, the Navy was completely shocked as they couldn’t contemplate how Shanks managed to send Kaido back and reach in time to stop the Paramount War. Sadly, there was no explanation given by Eiichiro Oda, and it was tagged as another mystery about Shanks’ character ,the revelation of Shanks’ lookalike (twin brother) in One Piece Chapter 1134, the confusion about Shanks stopping Kaido and then reaching Marineford becomes a little clear.there is a possibility that Shanks was not the one to stop Kaido, but it was his “brother.”
The theory states that when the report about Shanks fighting Kaido was received by the Marines, it specifically stated that Kaido was actually battling Shanks and not the “Red-Haired Pirates.” Thus there is a possibility that Shanks’ brother was the one who took on Kaido under the command of the World Government, as they knew that if Kaido showed up at Marineford, the wreckage would be tenfold.While it has not been officially confirmed by Oda, it is the only explanation that makes sense out of the confusion about Shanks’ character in One Piece. Fans will have to wait till more details are revealed about Shanks’ twin to find out who he actually is and what his true goals are.

Shanks is now free of the allegations .

Shanks Has An Evil Twin.

Shanks's twin is most likely the child of Saint Garling Figarland and possibly the new leader of the God's Knights. As fans know, Shanks was separated from the Celestial Dragons on the day of the God Valley Incident. He ended up being accidentally looted by the Roger Pirates, and he was raised by Roger and Rayleigh on the Oro Jackson. It is likely that the other children, or potentially just a single child, were successfully saved by the World Government. This child was likely raised by Garling to stand as a powerful member of the God's Knights.
Now that Saint Garling has become a member of the Five Elders, this Shanks look-alike might have risen to the position of the Supreme Commander of the God's Knights. Given that this character sides with the World Government, it is highly likely that he is evil and works for the World Nobles. Fans don't know what relationship he shares with Shanks, but everything will be revealed in due time. At the very least, fans can now be sure of the fact that Shanks is not truly evil, and his family holds many intriguing secrets, some of which will be revealed to the fans soon enough. This character is going to be deeply involved in the Elbaf arc, and fans absolutely cannot wait to see his conversation with Luffy, and later, potentially even Shanks.

More details of the chapter Thanks to Redon. Chapter of 17 pages.

- Chapter 1,133: "Please praise me".

Ogre Child Yamato's Golden Harvest Surrogate Pilgrimage, Vol. 20: "Holdem appears and takes Tama hostage (Holdem looks the same as the last time we saw him in Wanoikuni). Speed is lying in the ground defeated and Yamato looks surprised".

Chapter starts with some parts of the end of Robin's flashback. We see the same events but from the point of view of different characters. We discover that Spandine was framing Robin for sinking the Marine battleships and also for destroying the evacuation ship (Spandine is talking with news reporters).

Then we see kid Robin running away through multiple places. For example, we see Robin looking at a manga book in a bookstore and secretly adding Ohara to the map. We see Robin eating food from the garbage next to a dog. And we see people reactions in the places where Robin was fleeing.

People: "She's already as smart as a scholar and she does not have human emotions!!" "Such a young age and so much money!! Take up your guns and shoot her!!" "An 8-year-old child sinking battleships all by herself!! She uses some unknown sorcery!!" "She is the devil of the sea!! She is an enemy of the world!!!"

Luffy: "Woahhh!!"

One day kid Robin was thinking of jumping from a cliff, but she stopped because she remembered Olvia and Professor Clover's words. Flashback ends with Robin running away trying to laugh "Dereshishishi" as we saw in the last pages of her arc.
Olvia: "Live, Robin!!!"

Clover: "You must survive, Robin!!"

Back to the present, the Great Erik ship docks at the village's pier. The pier is surrounded by sea clouds that look like water. Luffy's group also arrives at the village in a flying rowboat with island clouds attached to its oars (Gerd, Goldberg and the Thousand Sunny are in the ship too).
Luffy: "Woahhh!!!"

Usopp: "Look at THIS, is amazing------!!!"

Giants: "That's a 'Sval'!! (Kanjis mean "Mist Ship") This ship uses the buoyancy of island clouds to move forward."

Usopp: "Amazing!! This country keeps surprising us~~~~!!"

Lilith: "Current climate within Elbaph is perfect!! 'Island Cloud', 'Sea Cloud', 'Bubble', 'Rainbow', and 'Hover'!! All technology can coexist on this island!!"

Everyone gathers in the middle of the village. Nami notices that Robin changed her hairstyle, and Robin replies that Nami and the other have dressed up quite befitting for Elbaph.

Hajrudin meets "Straw Hat crew" (Luffy and all the crew are on top of the giants) and introduces them to the "New Giant Warrior Pirates" crew. We see that Road has been tied up with iron chains and crucified loool.

Luffy: "It's been a while Hajrudin!!"

Hajrudin: "I have heard all about your actions!! You are now one of the "Yonkou" now!! Way to go Big Boss!! Later I will give you a more formal introduction, but these 4 all belong to the "New Giant Warriors Pirates"!! One of your subordinate crews!!"

Gerd: "Nice to meet you♡"

Luffy: "I said I don't need subordinates."

Hajrudin: "That's fine, we are doing this because we want to!! Diggaa!!"

Hajrudin mentions that the news of Big Mom being defeated has reached Elbaph too. Gerd says it's a shame since the Elbaph line used to be so free but an Elbaph unit committed an unforgivable crime to Elbaph.

Robin asks more details about it at first but Gerd notices Robin that Saul has come to wait at the school "Warrior's Spring". Robin gets emotional and asks for Luffy and the others to go alone but all Straw Hat crew go along with them so they can search for that lost text for later.

Gerd takes them to the "Sval" and they fly to meet Saul. During the trip, Gerd explains that Saul teaches history to Elbaph children. Usopp is amazed to discover that warriors even work hard on learning.

Gerd: "Saul-sensei focuses mainly on the history lessons, he also lectures about various "books". We have arrived at the "Warrior's Spring" and nearby is the "Library of Owls"."

They arrive to a massive spring water, so large that it looks like a sea. Over the "Warrior's Spring" we can see a huge house on top of an enormous branch (there are some waterfalls falling from the branch to the spring). Nami is in shock.
Nami: "Spring!? That's a whole beach!!"

Gerd: "That's right! Parts of the tree have fossilized and weathered, creating the sand here. The tides don't rise and fall but we do have waves created by the waterfalls."

Nami: "It's basically a sea!!"

Luffy: "All right, let's go meet that guy!!"

Nami (grabbing Luffy's face): "Wait!! Robin's reunion comes first!!"

Robin: "Oh, my heart is racing..."

Suddenly a giant girl run at them shouting that Saul has fallen down and he's not moving, indicating that Saul is in the beach. All Straw Hat crew members are shocked, but as Robin sees what happened, she just laugh.
Robin: "How silly..."

Robin walks through the beach and we see that Saul is lying face-down on the beach. As Robin gets close to him and smiles, he raises his head and roars at her (it's exactly the same scene as their first meeting in chapter 392).
Robin: ...

Saul: "Rooaaahhhh!!! ... Dereshishishishi!!!"

Robin: "Your laugh is still weird!!"

Saul says he's too awkward and didn't know what kind of face to make, so he tried to play prank to surprise Robin. Then we have an emotional conversation between Robin and Saul. He says how much Robin looks like her mother, and that Vegapunk has relay the voice of Ohara people to the world.

After that we see a flashback panel where we see what happened to Saul after Ohara's incident. Saul explains that he woke up already in the sea, so he assumed the massive fire that destroyed Ohara melted too ice where he was imprisoned. Because of this, he suffered burning wounds all over his body (we see that Saul has some scars on his face and body).

Robin (that is on top of Saul's hand) stops Saul's speech.

Robin: "... I don't want to talk about depressing things anymore!! Saul... Please... PRAISE ME for being alive this long!"

Saul hugs Robin while he's laughing.
Saul: "Dereshishi. That's what she said! And OF COURSE I shall!! A child of that age!! Chased by the entire world!! You have done well enough to not only being alive but also surviving for the whole 22 years!! And coming all this way!!!"

We see another flashback panel with kid Robin crying under the rain while in the present Robin and Saul cry with emotion and joy.
Robin (flashback): "Why do I have to live!? Mommy!! Professor!! Saul!! I want to die already!! I don't want to live anymore!!"

Robin (present): "I missed you so much, Saul...!!"

Saul: "Dereshishi, me too------!!!"

Chapter ends with all Straw Hat crew crying with funny faces while they see Robin and Saul reunion (only Luffy, Zoro and Jinbe are not crying). In the last panel of the chapter we see Luffy smiling and very happy to Robin's happiness.
End of chapter.

BREAK next week. One Piece will return in Weekly Shonen Jump #04-05/2025 (on sale 23rd December).

One Piece Chapter 1132 Spoilers

Chapter 1,132: “Adventure in Elbaph”.

FULL SUMMARY BELOW

* Ogre Child Yamato's Golden Harvest Surrogate Pilgrimage, Vol. 19: "Yamato reaches Udon castle that is being rebuilt in the middle of the old prison mine".
* Chapter starts where last one ended, we see that Great Eirik ship is reaching Elbaph port. A kid comes out to greet the ship, he's the same kid who was in the bar with Shanks in chapter 1,076. Kid name is "Collon" (コロン in japanese).
* Collon shouts at Great Eirik ship asking them to stop by, but Dorry and Brogy say they will go directly to the upper world.
* Collon goes into the bar and tell the bar lady that he's following them up there because he wants to meet Luffy. Then we see a flashback panel of Shanks talking with Collon.

> Shanks: "Do not forget this name: "Straw Hat Luffy"!!"

* The bar lady gives Collon some food for him and for his dad. And she gives him some food too for someone called "Ripley" (7)-— in japanese). Then Collon leaves the bar.
* The Great Eirik ship approaches to a massive rainbow that connects the sea and 2nd level of Elbaph tree. Rainbow road was created by the giants on the ship, they painted the rainbow with "Painter" (Sun Stone).
* We see a BEAUTIFUL double page with Great Eirik ship going up rainbow road as Hajrudin smaller ship comes out to greet and join them (with Hajrudin and Stansen in the ship).
> Straw Hat crew: "We are really crossing on the rainbow~~~!!!"
> Brogy: "Gabababa. Great wind today, a good day for rainbow sailing!!"
> Jinbe: "Luffy and the others are going to be thrilled seeing this!!"
* Cut back to the bridge above the "Underworld”. Gerd and Goldberg are running and they suddenly see Luffy jumping up from the * "Underworld". Gerd loves smaller humans and thinks Luffy is very cute.
* Gerd and Goldberg greet Luffy and he jumps on Gerd hand. They ask Luffy what he's doing down there. Luffy thinks back to what Loki * said to him.
> Loki: "Do not tell anyone about the fact that you met me here!! And don't talk about our promise as well!!!"
* Luffy tries to lie in a very bad way. He sweats so much that Goldberg panics and stops asking, thinking panics and that Luffy must have had horrible experiences in the "Underworld" lol
* Nami's group has already crossed the bridge, they are now in a forest. We see that Road is almost catching them but suddenly he gets hit in the head by a giant tree that was cut down.
* We discover that it was a trap set by the Straw Hat crew to take out Road without attacking him directly. Gerd and Goldberg have crossed the bridge too, and catch the others.
> Sanji: "Alright!! Let's go then, I also can't wait to see this “Land of Giants"."
> Road: "Curse you... you... tiny... humans...!!"
> Gerd: "There he is!! And look!! The "Straw Hat crew" is with him too!!"
> Road: "This... this voice... Gerd-taso ♡ Could it be... that you have come to aid yours truly...!!"
* Gerd and Goldberg beat Road up with their weapons too. Gerd and Goldberg position attack is similar to Dorry and Brogy's when they use "Hakoku” attack (but Gerd and Goldberg use normal attacks).
> Gerd/Goldberg: "Stop right there Road!!! You weirdo!!!"
> Road: "Uaghh!!!"
* Then Luffy and Nami's group are reunited again. They are now on the 2nd level of Elbaph, so Luffy, Usopp and Chopper run ahead to see a massive village.
* The Great Eirik ship and Hajrudin ship are reaching too the village sailing in the rainbow road. Dorry and Brogy explain that Elbaph has 3 different levels.
> Level 3: "Heaven World" (R).
> Level 2: “Sun World" (B).
> Level 1: "Underworld" (E).
* All of them are now in the "Sun World" which has many villages and it's too vast that make it impossible
to see entire. The village they are approaching is the village of Dorry and Brogy.
* In a WONDERFUL double page, we have the reveal of Dorry and Brogy village. The village seems to be built on tree branches in the air with many island clouds nearby. Houses are the same we saw in other giant villages. And there is a castle too, similar to the one that Road built in his LEGO diorama.
> Giants: "Welcome to "Elbaph"!!!"
> Luffy: "Woooah!!!"
* Luffy and Usopp are extremely touched seeing the village (Usopp is crying with joy). We see a little flashback of Luffy and Usopp talking about Elbaph at the end of Little Garden arc (chapter 129).
> Usopp: "You guys!! Someday, I swear!! I will go to Elbaph!! To the village of warriors!!"
> Luffy: "All right, Usopp!! Let's do it!!"
* We see too everyone reactions when they see the village: Robin, Nami, Bonney and Lilith are smiling with joy, Zoro, Franky, Brook and Jinbe are amazed, Chopper has sparkle eyes and Sanji is leaning on Gerd's chest (loooool).
* At the same time we see all this, we can read some text boxes that will continue until the end of the chapter.
* Text box:
> [Great size... brings about sensation...】
> [No words would do this view justice.]
>【This is the "Kingdom of Warland" on Elbaph Island.)
>【It is a Kingdom of Giants that is commonly referred to as collectively "Elbaph"...]
* The Great Eirik ship and Hajrudin ship arrive at the village on the rainbow road, so finally everyone is reunited.
> Hajrudin: "Hey!! "Straw Hat"!!"
> Franky: "Ah!! Luffy!! So you are here too, we have been looking for you!!!"
> Luffy: "Huh!? You guys just arrived!? Ahahaha!! It's great that we are able to meet up!! Everything turns out alright!!"
* When Luffy, Usopp and Chopper discover that Franky group has been sailing in a rainbow, their faces change to "Sugar face" lol
> Luffy/Usopp/Chopper: "Ahh!? Are you guys riding on a rainbow right now!!? Let us on there too!!!"
* In the last page of the chapter, text boxes continues and we discover that is a narration from "Louis Arnote" the explorer that wrote about Little Garden in famous "Brag Men” book.
> Louis Arnot: [From the grasses or trees, vines to flowers and the insects, fishes or birds. Including all the animals.]
> [One can only gasps at the sheer size of everything.]
>【Fellow explorers, the time you spent here will not be fruitless.)
* In the last panels of the chapter we can see the silhouette of a person who is walking in the forest (a giant grizzly bear is looking at him in the background). We can't see who is that person yet but has long hair and wears a Wanokuni hat (probably is the person who was drinking with Crocus in chapter 631 cover).
* Louis Arnot narration concludes in the last panel of the chapter...
> Louis Arnot: 【However...]
> 【If I am to record only one thing about the mysterious land of "Elbaph", the place where everything is
huge...]
>【I wish for you to remember my words somewhere in the back of your mind.】 ["Do not prolong your stay in this land for too long." - Explorer Louis Arnot】
* End of the chapter. **NO break next week.
