Spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1121 Strengthen the Shanks Twin Brother Hypothesis

Oda sensei's hinting to a fresh mystery in the plot always prompts the One Piece fandom to churn forth tried and true hypotheses. You must be familiar with the Shanks twin brother hypothesis if, like me, you have been reading these theories for years. After One Piece chapter 1083 originally alluded to this hypothesis being true, chapter 1121 has now given this crazy speculation more gasoline by teasing yet another new character in the last panel.

First established in Chapter 1054, the Holy Knights, often known as the God's Knights, are those with a higher rank than the Marines (learn more about the Marine ranking system here). Subsequently, after around thirty chapters, Oda made the decision to tease the fans with a picture of the Holy Knights in silhouette as Monkey D. Dragon was discussing how their fight with them will soon begin.

The figure in the middle of the silhouette, who bore an eerie similarity to everyone's favorite pirate Akagami Shanks, drew everyone's attention despite the presence of multiple knights. The One Piece community is now delirious as a result of this. Let's investigate the Shanks twin idea in more detail.

If you don't know the story of Shanks, Roger discovered him in a treasure box during the historic God Valley incident. Most people seem to forget this shanks reality.

Moreover, this evidence suggested that Shanks was a figarland family member since St. Figarland Garling, who is regarded as God Valley's champion, was there at the scene. There is conjecture that he was also Shanks' long-term relative.

Fans began conjecturing that Shanks is the twin sibling who was lost and discovered by Roger when we were able to piece two and two together. The second twin was brought up as a Celestial Dragon, so to speak. Garling, his father or grandfather, was the Supreme Commander, hence it is likely that he received training to become a member of the Holy Knights.

Consider the occasion when Shanks went to the Five Elders; if it was his evil twin, then everything would make perfect sense.

The stars, the front-runners in the quest to claim the fabled One Piece treasure, were revealed in the thrilling double spread finale of One Piece Chapter 1121.Among them was the well-known silhouette of a man brandishing a sword that matched Shanks' Gryphon weapon. This stoked the notion that Shanks had a twin sibling by sending the fan base into a frenzy. Having said that, nothing has been verified by Oda sensei as of yet.Another possibility is the guy Oda has previously described, the man marked by flames or the man with the pirate eyepatch. But until we learn who this individual is, we will have to wait. Nevertheless, who do you suppose this figure is? Tell us in the comments section below.
