Rocks D. Xebec's audacious plan in One Piece 1156
| One Piece Chapter 1156 | Events from 44 years ago |
| Rocks D. Xebec | Teams will be bigger and stronger |
At the heart of the plot, we see the advancement of Rocks D. Xebec's plan to seize Pirate Island. Formerly used as a prison for exiles, the island has transformed into a fortress for criminals after a treasure of gold was discovered beneath it. Now, even the World Government struggles to regain control of the region. Still, Rocks desires something greater: to use the Government's money as bait, then betray them and dominate everything for himself.
Therefore, their attack promises intense battles against the pirates who currently dominate the island, most notably the emergence of a permanent pirate base—a significant turning point in the series' overall narrative.
Loki's flashback and the preparation for God Valley
Meanwhile, Prince Loki's flashback continues. Grown and inspired by Rocks, he begins to nurture the ambition to become the strongest. Thus, his desire to roam the world may be explored in this chapter, revealing more of Elbaf's past.
Everything indicates that chapter 1156 will accelerate time and take us to the events preceding the God Valley Incident, possibly including Gol D. Roger's entry into the story.
