This also means the legendary God Valley Incident will be shown by Oda in its entirety.
Oda Has Decided To Incorporate God Valley Into Elbaf
The God Valley Incident was first mentioned inOne Piecechapter 957, where Sengoku elaborated upon the incredible clash that took place in the West Blue long ago and was later covered up by the Government. To put it simply, a legendary individual, known bythe name of Rocks D. Xebec, had opened hostilities against the World Government and it all culminated in a massive clash that ensued on the island of God Valley 38 years ago.

Rocks D. Xebec attacked the World Government and the Celestial Dragons for something that was stolen from him, and when he went to retrieve it, he faced resistance in the form of Roger Pirates and the Navy, along with the Holy Knights. A massive war took place on the island of God Valley, and eventually, Rocks was beaten. Fans don’t know exactly how he was beaten. Some say Rocks was taken down by the Government, while others say it was a collaborative effort of Garp and Roger who took him down. Regardless, all the secrets of this day will finally be revealed soon.

One Piecefans know very well that the Pirate Island is an incredibly important place in the world ofOne Piece. It is quite literally an island that can be considered a Pirate Paradise, and it was created bynone other than Rocks D. Xebec. InOne Piecechapter 1155, Rocks revealed that he intended to take down every gang active on the island in exchange for huge sums of moneyfrom the World Government.
