In the latest One Piece Chapter 1085, fans were finally introduced to the leader of the Holy Knight Brigade, who happened to be none other than Shanks’ twin brother! Eiichiro Oda dropped some hints throughout the manga, which led fans to believe that there might be two Shanks in the story. However, it wasn’t until now that fans finally got to see his twin brother’s silhouette in the manga.
Fans have been speculating for a long time that the Holy Knight Brigade’s leader might be Shanks’ twin brother, and chapter 1085 confirmed this theory. Oda dropped several hints about his existence in the manga. For instance, when fans asked him about the presence of two Shanks, he dismissed their queries abruptly. Furthermore, when Shanks met with Whitebeard before the Marineford War, the latter claimed that every time he saw Shanks’ face, the wound he received from him would hurt again. This statement made it clear that his twin brother shared a striking resemblance to him.
Another hint that confirmed fans’ theories was when Shanks was shown meeting with the Gorosei. Oda only revealed the right side of Shanks’ body during their conversation, and fans noticed that he didn’t have the scar on his left eye. These hints indicate that there are two Shanks in the story, and one of them is the leader of the Holy Knight Brigade, as revealed in One Piece Chapter 1085.
Shanks and his twin brother are identical in terms of height and body posture. They both hold their swords in the same hand, indicating that his twin brother is also a swordsman with a dominant right hand. However, there are two notable differences between the two. Firstly, Shanks’ twin brother doesn’t have a scar on his left eye, and secondly, he still has his left arm intact.
In conclusion, One Piece Chapter 1085 shed some light on the mystery surrounding Shanks’ twin brother and revealed him as the leader of the Holy Knight Brigade. Fans were elated to finally see his silhouette and confirm their theories. With Oda’s exceptional storytelling skills, it will be interesting to see how this revelation will affect the rest of the story.
