One Piece Chapter 1159 dives deep into the long-awaited God Valley Incident, finally shedding light on the origins of several legendary figures.
After leaving the Kuja Pirates and moving to Hachinosu, Shakuyaku’s bar quickly became a pirate hotspot. Admirers ranged from Roger to Rocks D. Xebec himself. However, Xebec’s obsession eventually faded as he fell in love with an unknown woman—together, they had a child who would later become the fearsome Blackbeard.
But Xebec’s life was far from peaceful. His friendship with Harald ended in a bitter duel, while Garling chose God Valley as the site of the next World Government tournament—claiming he had discovered something of great interest to Imu.
What he found was a mysterious woman with twin children: Shamrock and Shanks. Their presence was the hidden trigger that set the stage for the infamous God Valley Incident.

One Piece Chapter 1159 Spoilers – “Island of Fate”
Cover Story
The cover page features Yamato making his return to the Flower Capital.
Shakuyaku’s Kidnapping & Garling’s Cruelty
The chapter reveals that 39 years ago, Shakuyaku was kidnapped from Hachinosu, an event that shook the world. A year later, Garling returned to God Valley, attacked the twins’ mother, and attempted to take Shanks and Shamrock to Marijoise.
At the same time, a young Marine soldier named Dragon was stationed on God Valley. As previously revealed in Kuma’s flashback, Ivankov, Ginny, and Kuma also arrived on the island as slaves during this period. Meanwhile, Morgans secretly leaked information about the island to Hachinosu.
Xebec’s Hidden Legacy – The Davy Clan
Elsewhere, Xebec raced toward God Valley. During a confrontation with Harald, he revealed his shocking past: his true name is Davy D. Xebec, a descendant of the mysterious Davy Clan, with none other than the infamous Davy Jones as his ancestor.
Fearing for his family’s safety due to the World Government’s immense bounty on him, Xebec sent his wife and son to God Valley—his homeland. Though Harald fought him again under the Gorosei’s orders, he deliberately lost this time, allowing his old comrade to push forward and save his family.
The Tournament Begins
The chapter concludes with the brutal start of the God Valley tournament. The locals, including young Teach and his mother, were enslaved as part of the deadly games. The ultimate prize for victory? None other than Shakuyaku herself.
