The Secret Identity of Shanks in One Piece Finally Revealed
Eiichiro Oda, the creator of the manga series One Piece, has kept the identity of some of his characters a secret. One such character is Shanks, who is now a Yonkou pirate known for his extraordinary abilities. Although Oda has never revealed Shanks’ identity, he has given some clues that point to Shanks being a part of the Figarland family.
In chapter 1086 of One Piece, Oda confirmed that the leader of the Holy Knight is also from the Figarland family. This revelation suggests that there is a connection between the Figarland family and the government. As a result, Shanks has the privilege to enter and leave Mariejoa, which explains why he refused Buggy’s invitation to search for One Piece and continue the journey of his former captain, Roger.
Before Roger’s execution, he revealed Shanks’ true identity as a Figarland. Knowing that his family has ties to the government, Shanks decided not to search for One Piece. He believes that his actions would affect his family in the long run. Despite being powerful and capable of competing to find One Piece, he restrains himself for the sake of Figarland, who has served the government until now.
Finally, Oda’s fans have learned of Shanks’ secret identity, and it all makes sense. Shanks’ position and privilege in the story are now clear. As for what the future holds for Shanks and his connection to Figarland and the government, fans can only speculate until Oda unveils more surprises in One Piece.
