ONE PIECE Chapter 1121 Latest Analysis | Are the Commoners Unnecessary?
Are the Commoners Unnecessary?
If the Five Elders recognize Shanks as a Figarland, it’s hard to believe Saint Garling wouldn’t know. Even if he thought Shanks had died at God Valley, if he knew his son was alive and well, one would think he’d want to reclaim him. However, if Shanks’ mother was from the lower classes, and given that his son was raised by pirates, he might consider him “trash” and a “worm” and discard him as “unnecessary.”
Perhaps because he raised one twin as a Celestial Dragon and heir, he wanted to avoid any internal disputes and saw it as a pragmatic decision. With Saint Garling introduced as the Supreme Commander of the Holy Knights, it’s likely the other twin became the captain or No. 2 of the Holy Knights. Personally, I think the other twin might be the “Man with the Burn Scar.”
The Holy Knights are likely stronger than even the Emperors, and if the World Government possesses the last Road Poneglyph, having the Holy Knights protect it would be the safest option. This could mean Shanks might end up fighting his twin brother to reach the ONE PIECE.
Shanks was likely born under a peculiar star but probably doesn’t care about such things… However, if Shanks knows about his lineage, he might feel it’s his duty, as someone with Celestial Dragon blood, to seize the ONE PIECE himself rather than leave it to Luffy. He might believe it’s his role to pull the Celestial Dragons from power.
Shanks seems to have a strong protective instinct, as shown by his actions toward young Luffy, and he likely possesses a strong sense of self-sacrifice… I sense that he is trying to atone for the Celestial Dragons’ accumulated sins… That concludes the introduction in this article. Thank you very much for reading through to the end!
