These new spoilers are absolutely insane, as it seems we might surprisingly be meeting Shanks's brother! For those who are hardcore fans, this theory may not be new, but for casual readers, this revelation is a huge shock. Let me explain how this all works, along with some other exciting details.
Chapter Highlights
Chapter 1134 is set to be a thrilling conclusion to the year. In this chapter, we see the Owl Library, where Luffy expresses his gratitude to Saul for saving Robin's life. This follows their emotional reunion in the previous chapter.
Lilith also makes an appearance, revealing that she has a clone of Vegapunk named Stella. She has plans for Elbaf, but the implications of bringing back a clone of Vegapunk are intriguing. If he can provide substantial secrets about the world's history, then great; otherwise, it might be better to keep him out of the story.
The Owl Library is a fascinating place where regular-sized books are enlarged for Giants to read, which is quite a funny concept. This brings to mind a theory I discussed with Saigh, suggesting that staying in Elbaf long enough might actually turn you into a Giant. It's an interesting possibility!

Underworld Developments
The scene shifts to the underworld, where Loki is chatting with someone named Mosa. I'm curious to see where this conversation leads, but we'll have to wait for the full summary to understand more about this character and their significance.
The Magic Circle and Shanks's Brother
As the chapter progresses, we transition to the Heaven World, the highest branch of Elbaf located in a castle. Suddenly, a magic circle appears, and two figures emerge from it, one of whom resembles Shanks. Before diving into this massive revelation, let’s clarify a correction regarding the spoilers from Scotch Informer: the two characters do not appear in a celestial world; instead, they emerge from a magic circle within the castle in the Giant Village.
Theories and Speculations
Before we delve into the theory of Shanks having a brother, it’s worth noting that the magical circle resembles the one used by the Gorosei back on Egghead, which is implied to be linked to Emu's abilities. Given that two people emerge, one is likely Garling or another Gorosei member, possibly accompanying Shanks's brother.
This theory has been discussed for a couple of years now—Garling is speculated to be Shanks's father. When Dragon mentioned the Holy Knights to another revolutionary commander, it was the first time they were mentioned in the series, and the silhouette of one of them resembled Shanks.
The recent spoilers suggest that the character who looks like Shanks may actually be his brother, which adds a new twist to the ongoing narrative. The iconic scar on Shanks's face, received from Blackbeard, is not visible on this character, suggesting a clever move by Oda to introduce Shanks's brother subtly.
Conclusion
If this theory holds true, it would explain the Gorosei's treatment of Shanks's brother, indicating his significance in the political landscape. Additionally, Pew Piece pointed out a past comment from Oda regarding Shanks being drawn without his scar, which adds another layer of intrigue to this theory.
