One Piece 1086 Spoiler: Figarland Garling Is Shanks' Father?

Saint Figarland Garling is possibly the father of one of the strongest characters in the One Piece series, Shanks.

Various things related to past stories and other things in the Mary Geoise area slowly begin to unfold.

After previously Oda revealed about the figure of Nefertari Lily and clues about Poneglyph and Tekad D, now Oda presents other facts.

In One Piece manga chapter 1086 it is revealed that Im might come from one of the kingdoms that form the World Government organization. Im could use a great power that makes him immortal.

However, what is no less interesting is the appearance of Saint Figarland Garling.

There is an interesting theory or speculation that is developing among fans if he is the father of Shanks in the One Piece story.

Who is Saint Figarland Garling

The story about the Figarland family first appeared in One Piece Film: Red. In the film, the Gorosei had said that Uta might be a part of the Figarland family.

This is because of his connection with the figure of Shanks. This made the fans think that the Figarland family did have a connection with Shanks.

This clue made the fans also think that the Figarland family was a noble family or one of the 20 royal families that helped form the World Government.

The fans also believe that this is the answer to various mysteries about Shanks, where he is so respected by many people. In fact, the Gorosei themselves accepted the figure of Shanks during the Levely.

Oda Sensei then introduces a group called the Holy Knights, where this group operates under the orders of Im and the Gorosei.

The Holy Knights were assigned to investigate the assassination attempt on Saint Charlos and the role of Saint Mjosgard in that attempt.

So far there hasn't been much information about the Holy Knights.

However, what is certain, they have tremendous power and enormous influence. With the introduction of the Holy Knights, Oda also showed more and more the role of the Figarland family.

And Oda seems to be telling him that the Figarland family is canon for now.

In chapter 1086 it was revealed that the Figarland family is connected to the Holy Knights. As it turned out, the leader of the Holy Knights was someone named Saint Figarland Garling.

There are several interesting facts about Garling, where he turns out to be a former leader in the God Valley region.

He also appears to be quite evil, which hints that he may be one of the villains the Straw Hats will face in future stories.

And with regards to Figarland and Garling, there has been growing speculation among fans that Garling is the father of Shanks.

Garling is Shanks' father

Since he first appeared in the first chapter in 1997, fans have never known about Shanks' origins.

The figure of Shanks also rarely appears in the One Piece story.

Shanks just started to get involved in stories and major events after the Wano arc.

However, with the One Piece storyline coming to an end, Oda began to provide some information about Shanks' origins.

In the One Piece 4 Billion booklet, it is revealed that Shanks was indeed found by Roger when he was a baby.

Back then, Roger and his crew managed to get out of the God Valley region and seize various treasures.

In one of the boxes, it turns out that there is a baby in it who is none other than Shanks.

And since then, Shanks began to be a part of Roger.

The fact that Shanks is part of the Figarland family is considered one of the clues that Saint Figarland Garling is the father of Shanks.

The attitude that the Gorosei - and Sengoku - showed towards Shanks was also taken as another clue.

One thing that could also be a clue if Garling is Shanks' father in One Piece is Shanks' powerful level of strength.

Shanks and Garling are both sword users. And geeks, of course, have seen how powerful Shanks' strength was when he destroyed the Eustass Kid group in one strike.

Not to mention, Shanks also has the terrible power of Haki.

In the One Piece story itself, it is not uncommon for a character's strength level to be as strong as other family members.

For example the Monkey family are both strong.

This may also apply to the Figarland family, in this case Garling and Shanks.

Even though Shanks' sword skills and fighting techniques were the result of Roger and Rayleigh's upbringing, there is a possibility that the source of Shanks' powerful strength came from his father, Garling.

This explained why Garling could later become the leader of the Holy Knights.

Other Hints

What could also be a hint from the above is that Garling was a former leader of God's Valley.

As we also know, 38 years ago there was a historical incident in the area where the Rocks pirate group attacked the sky dragon. The incident was named the God Valley Incident.

Garp also tried to protect the sky dragon by facing Rocks with help from Roger.

After the incident the island was declared lost to history.

The theory also explains that Garling might have deliberately kept Shanks in the box when the moment of the fight took place.

Garling intends to protect his son from harm. However, what was unexpected was that Roger managed to steal the box because maybe he thought it contained treasure.

The moment of reunion between Shanks and Garling is of course one of the moments that fans have been waiting for. However, when that happens they might fight each other. Why?

Because, both of them now have different views and. Shanks himself is now a pirate with the Yonko title and Roger certainly has a lot of influence on Shanks' life.

Meanwhile, Garling is an evil figure who thinks like other celestial dragons. This is certainly different from Shanks' thoughts where the fight between the two might take place.

Let's just wait, the real facts about the figure of Saint Figarland Garling and his connection with the figure of Shanks.
