The God Valley incident is the only incident fans wanted to learn about more than the Void Century or the Joy Boy flashback in One Piece. Fortunately, the past few chapters of the Elbaf arc heavily hinted that all the roads lead to the God Valley incident. This flashback may have started as Loki’s backstory, but somehow, we ended up on the God Valley island at last, after eagerly waiting for years. In the latest One Piece chapter 1160, Oda reintroduces the legends who participated in the God Valley incident and forever changed the course of history that day.

The Rocks Pirates and Roger Pirates Arrive on God Valley Island
During Kuma’s tragic flashback in the Eggheard arc, we were finally offered a glimpse of the God Valley incident, where Oda introduced the number of legends who were present during this infamous incident in chapter 1096. Now, 64 chapters later, Oda finally realized this is the right time to reveal the complete picture of the God Valley incident in the One Piece manga.
With the Native Hunting Competition beginning, the Celestial Dragons, including the Holy Knights, were busy hunting the super-rare Davy Clan members and a Buccaneer. In the meantime, the Roger Pirates and Rocks Pirates learned the location of Shakky, thanks to the leak from Ginny and Morgan. One by one, the pieces began falling into place, which would become the most notorious incident in history.
The first to respond were the Rocks Pirates, who arrived not just to save Shakky but also to plunder the treasures of the World Nobles. However, their captain, Davy D. Xebec, came to rescue his wife and kid, who had been hiding in his hometown, in addition to Shakky. For the first time, Rocks remarked to his crew to let go of their rivalries and split the treasure fairly.
Shortly after the Rocks Pirates’ arrival, the Roger Pirates set foot on the island. Their primary goal was to save Shakky and the crew members, even to the extreme lengths of trampling over their captain to become the first one to rescue her.
With the legendary pirates making their entrances, Figarland Garling realized that this game is done and dusted, and the World Nobles’ lives are in danger. Therefore, he called up his fellow knights and assembled the God’s Knights in one place to protect the Celestial Dragons.
As we know already, Garp learned from Sengoku that Roger was sailing to the God Valley. Therefore, the Vice Admiral jumped onto the island following the Rocks and Roger Pirates’ arrival. While the Marines were paralyzed by fear after watching two legendary pirate crews in one place, their hopes and faith were restored the moment Garp showed up.
These are the key players in the God Valley incident, and they have all been assembled one by one in the latest chapter by Oda. Apart from the legends, Ginny, Ivankov, and Kuma were carrying out their escape plan. On the other hand, the young Monkey D. Dragon was risking his life to save the Figarland twins.
With the stage set and all the legends assembled under one place, Oda is about to unleash their full powers in the upcoming chapters. Until then, what do you think about the way Oda reintroduced the legends of God Valley in One Piece chapter 1160? Let us know in the comments below.
