One Piece Chapter 1158: Realm of the Dead, Elbaf

The Oro Jackson sails through rough seas as the Roger Pirates react to shocking news. A large panel shows the ship with the text "GOL-D-ROGER" and a box stating "A CERTAIN SEA – ROGER'S SHIP, THE ORO JACKSON". Crew members shout: "CAPTAIN!! CAPTAIN ROGER!!" and "I HEARD SHAKKY OPENED UP A PLACE ON PIRATE ISLAND! THEY SAY IT'S UNBELIEVABLE!" Roger stands on deck with arms crossed, looking serious. Speech bubbles continue: "DOESN'T ROCKS CONTROL PIRATE ISLANDI!" "BUT NOW WE KNOW WHERE SHE IS, LET'S GO!" "WE WORRIED WE'D NEVER SEE HER AGAIN WHEN SHE QUIT BEING EMPRESS..." Below deck, Rayleigh and another crew member discuss: "...OR HAS ROGER BEEN IN A BAD MOOD EVER SINCE YOU TWO SPOKE IN HIS QUARTERSI" "SAY, RAYLEIGH, IS IT JUST ME..." "ERR..."

Inside the ship, the crew continues discussing Shakuyaku's sudden departure. Roger recalls: "WAS THIS DURING OUR LAST FIGHT WITH THE KUIJA PIRATES, JUST BEFORE SHE QUITI" "I FIGURED I SHOULD TALK TO YOU ONE ON ONE, ROGER..." "I WASN'T GONNA SAY ANYTHING TO THE CREW, BUT..." A crewmate asks, "WHAT DID YOU DISCUSSI" Roger shouts, "NOTHING!!" Another replies, "BUT YOU'RE TELLING ME SHE GAVE YOU THIS DURING THAT BATTLEI!" Roger explains, "YEAH, I WAS SPEECHLESS... I WORRIED SHE STEPPED DOWN BECAUSE OF HER HEALTH. SHAKUYAKU DID SEEM OFF BACK THEN... LIKE SHE WAS SICK OR SOMETHING." The scene reveals a handwritten letter: "COME AND MAKE ME YOURS. -SHAKUYAKU". The crew reacts in shock: "I'D BE LYING IF I SAID THAT; I JUST DON'T WANNA BE TIED DOWN..." "AND YOU'RE NOT INTERESTEDI!" "THIS CAN ONLY BE DESCRIBED AS A 'LOVE LETTER'!!" "WELL, I DO!!!"

Roger stands tall and declares with fierce determination: "'TIL THE PRIZE IS CLAIMED! AIN'T THAT RIGHT, FELLASI!" "PIRATES LIVE TO PLUNDER! AND WE DON'T STOP..." The crew cheers wildly. One shouts, "HUHI YOU'RE ENERGETIC ALL OF A SUDDEN, ROGER!" Roger replies, "I AIN'T GIVING UP!" and "C'MON, MEN!!" The Oro Jackson races across the waves toward an island. Crew members yell: "IT'S ALREADY DONE, DIG IN!" "MARX! I'M HUNGRY! MAKE FOOD!" "LET'S GO AND GET HER!" "EVERYONE'S GOT AN EQUAL CHANCE!" "GOTTA BE! WHY ELSE WOULD WE GO TO ROCKS' ISLAND OF ALL PLACESI!" "IS HE STILL TALKING ABOUT SHAKKYI!" Laughter and excitement fill the air as the ship approaches its destination.

Some time later at the Holy Land of Mary Geoise, a massive ornate palace rises under the clouds. A voice states, "THE PREVIOUS COMPETITION JUST ENDED." Another replies, "YOU'RE IMPATIENT, GARLING." Saint Garling stands in full regal attire with his massive sword, his expression stern. He answers, "I'M AWARE... BUT WHILE WE WERE COMPLETING ANOTHER ASSIGNMENT... WE BRIEFLY STOPPED AT THAT ISLAND. WE JUST MADE AN OUTRAGEOUS DISCOVERY. WHILE THEIR ABUNDANT RESOURCES WOULD CERTAINLY PROVE VALUABLE FOR US... BUT THEY DECLINED... IT'S A NON-AFFILIATED STATE, BUT IT HAS A UNIQUE CULTURE. WE TRIED OFFERING THEM MEMBERSHIP IN THE WORLD GOVERNMENT... IT WAS A COMPLETELY UNEXPECTED FIND." In the background, silhouettes react with "!I" and "...". Garling continues, "IN TWO YEARS TIME, I STRONGLY URGE YOU TO HOLD THE NEXT HUNT AT GOD VALLEY!! AND THE GREAT ONE WILL SURELY BE PLEASED WITH IT." A scarred man with intense eyes glares upward in the foreground. A sign reads "GOD'S KNIGHT FIGARLAND FAMILY SAINT GARLING (FUTURE ELDER)".

At Shakky's Rip-off Bar on Pirate Island, a lively crowd gathers outside the bustling multi-tiered town. A voice yells, "WHAT!I IT'S THAT MUCH!I I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF MONEY!!!" Another shouts, "COME TO THE BACK. YOU CAN WORK IT OFF WITH 2 YEARS OF UNPAID LABOR." A surprised patron blurts, "HUH!I" Inside the crowded bar, Shakky, wearing an apron labeled "SHAKKY", pours drinks with a cigarette in her mouth. A customer protests, "BUT... I'M NOT GONNA PERSONALLY COOK FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU." Shakky smiles and replies, "AND THAT SHAKKY MAKES A MEAN STEW!" A grinning pirate adds, "I CAME ALL THE WAY FROM THE NORTH BLUE! I HEAR YOU SERVE SOME GREAT WHISKY!" Another patron cries, "SHAKKY-SAN!! MY SPECIAL BEAN STEW IS READY, BUT WE'RE OUT OF WHISKY!" Shakky answers, "USE THE CHEAP RUM INSTEAD." Hearts float as patrons cheer, "SHE'S JUST HOW I DREAMED! I'M SO HAPPY!" and "A CUTE COMPLIMENT LIKE THAT MAKES ME SMILE!" The crowd raises glasses, "THREE CHEERS FOR OUR HOST'S POOR SERVICE!!! ANYWAY! HERE'S YOUR TOP QUALITY WHISKY!"

Chaos erupts inside Shakky's Rip-off Bar. A pirate demands, "WHAT'S GOING ONI" Shakky snaps, "SHUT UP! I SAID IT'S NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS." Another voice mocks, "SEE! A WOMAN'S INTUITION IS A SCARY THING, HMPH!" A large figure laughs, "MAMA MAMAMA!!" Shakky sighs, "I'M KIND OF SAD THAT SATISFIED GRIN ISN'T FOR ME ANYMORE. WHAT HAPPENED, ROCKSI" A patron notes, "IT HAS TO BE A WOMAN... THE GUY'S GRINNING LIKE HE'S EXPECTING A KID." Suddenly the doors burst open as a wild-haired man with a wide grin throws his arms up shouting, "IT'S ME!!" The crowd panics, "UWAAH!! IT'S THE ROGER PIRATES!!! GET A PIC! GET A PIC!" Roger yells, "SHAKKY, I'VE COME FOR YOU!!" Others cry, "SHAKKY-CHAAANN!!" Shakky reacts with "HMP!I" while a scarred pirate growls, "DIDN'T YOU HEARI FIGHTING AT SHAKKY'S IS FORBIDDEN! SO STUFF IT, YOU PORCUPINE!!" Roger presses, "ROGER!! HOW MANY TIMES... DO I GOTTA TELL YOU THAT THIS IS MY ISLANDI!" Shakky mutters, "OH, ROGER..."

The bar brawl intensifies. A patron complains, "I CAN'T STAND THOSE GUYS... THEY'RE SO NOISY." Roger shouts, "DRINK UP, EVERYBODY!" Someone yells, "THERE WAS A LINE! I HARDLY NOTICED!" Another asks, "DID YOU WAIT IN IT!I" A voice outside gripes, "ISN'T THERE A HUGE LINE OUT THERE!! HOW'D YOU GET IN HERE!I" Roger retorts, "NAH LEAVE IT ON ROCKS!!" while a figure is thrown, "PUT IT ON NEWGATE'S TAB!" Outside, a massive brawl sends bodies flying past the "SHAKKY'S RIP OFF BAR" sign. Inside, Roger grabs at Shakky, "KYAAH! IS THAT YOU, ROGERI I'VE WANTED TO SEE YOU AGAIN SO BADLY! NOW LET ME ON YOUR SHIP! GUWAH!! GLORIOSA!!" Shakky pushes back, "WHERE'S RAY-SANI ROGER!!" A furious man roars, "I TOLD YOU NO! I'M NOT INTO LOVEY-DOVEY WOMEN WHO THROW THEMSELVES AT ME!" Shakky explains, "I TOLD HIM TO COME, BUT HE SAID HE WASN'T FEELING WELL, SO HE'S NAPPING ON THE SHIP." Another pirate yells, "THAT MAKES NO SENSE!!"

In a bustling bar filled with floating hearts, a dark-haired woman exhales smoke and replies coolly, "I'LL PASS..." Nearby voices shout in surprise: "HE LEFT!! MAAMA MA!" and "YO ISN'T NEWGATE STILL HEREI! I WANNA DRINK WITH HIM!!" A frustrated patron yells, "DAMN IT, RAYLEIGH... WHY DIDN'T YOU COMEI!" while another figure clutches his head. The scene shifts to a grand building where pirates cry out, "I WANNA TAKE CARE OF HER! LEMME HELP!!" and "EMPRESS SHAKKY!!!" as Shakky faints with a loud "THUMP". A ship sails away with the declaration, "WE'LL DELIVER DINKS' SAKE!!!" Narration boxes explain: "EVEN THE FIERCEST OF PIRATES... WOULD KEEP THE PEACE IF THEY CROSSED PATHS. COMING TO THE ISLAND TO VISIT HER ESTABLISHMENT WOULD BE GRANTED SAFE PASSAGE!! SHAKUYAKU'S RULES ENSURED THAT ANYONE..." The page ends on two menacing close-ups of scarred, angry men, with the caption "BUT BACK AT SEA, ALL BETS WERE OFF."

In a violent flashback, two giant warriors clash furiously. One roars at the other, "HARALD, THE GOVERNMENT'S REALLY GOT YA WRAPPED AROUND THEIR FINGER!!" The second giant replies, "I WAS TORN..." A third voice questions, "IS THIS REALLY SOMETHIN' WORTH KILLIN' YOUR FRIEND OVERI!" while another yells, "DUMBASS! YOU'RE BEIN' THEIR TOOL! AND IN THE END, YA JUST BOWED DOWN TO THEMI!" Massive impacts erupt with giant SFX "ドン!!" and "ビキバキ!!" as bodies crash through structures. A ship labeled "REALM OF THE DEAD, ELBAF" appears amid the chaos. Warriors tumble with cries of "OOPH!", "UWAAH!", "GROAN!!", and "ROAARR!!" The brutal melee continues across multiple panels with heavy motion lines and debris.

The fight rages on as one giant taunts, "THAT KIND OF FEAR DOESN'T FADE SO EASILY..." Another recalls, "A LONG TIME AGO, THIS COUNTRY WAS ATTACKED BY GIANTS." Harald presses, "YOU SEEM TO HAVE A GOOD HEART, HARALD, BUT... THEY SEE YOU GIANTS AS NOTHIN' BUT A MILITARY ASSET!! YOU'LL ALL BE ENSLAVED AS SOLDIERS!!" The opponent snaps back, "STOP IT!!" and "IS THIS THEIR ANSWERI!" while warning, "THEY STILL HAVE THE INFLUENCE IN THE WORLD TO BRING ELBAF INTO THE LOOP!" A massive slash strikes with "SLASH" and "ガキン!!" as the attacker screams, "YOU COWARDLY RAT!!!" and "QUIT TALKING LIKE YOU KNOW EVERYTHING!!" The defender retorts, "WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR WARRIOR'S PRIDEI DON'TCHA HAVE YOUR OWN WILLI" Narration adds, "ELBAF IS SHACKLED BY IT! HELD BACK FROM ACHIEVING TRUE PEACE! OUR WARRIORS CREATED A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE..."

Harald bellows, "I CAN'T THROW AWAY MY PEOPLE'S LIVES BY FOLLOWING A VILLAIN LIKE YOU INTO A LOSING BATTLE!" Loki roars back, "I'M A KING!! YA WON'T BE GETTIN' ANOTHER INVITE FROM ME AGAIN!! CONSIDER OUR BUSINESS CLOSED!!" Narration states, "THE TWO WOULD NOT MEET AGAIN FOR SOME TIME... THIS UNORTHODOX FRIENDSHIP HAD COME TO AN END. THERE WAS NO TRUE CONCLUSION, BUT..." The scene shifts to a quiet village where a small horned figure asks, "WOULD YOU LIKE SOME JUICEI" only to be told, "SHUT UP, YOU LYING HAG!! HE ISN'T COMING BACK, LOKI..." A bird-like creature flips with "FLIP" as narration concludes, "NOT UNTIL THE DAY OF A CERTAIN INCIDENT." The final panel shows a distant view with the note "MORE NEWS ABOUT ROCKS..."

Thirty-nine years ago in West Blue at God Valley, two newborn twin boys wail loudly amid rocky cliffs as a crowd gathers. "WAAH!! WAAH!!" A woman exclaims, "AWW, TWO TWIN BOYS!! ♥" Villagers pitch in to help the mother. "Thank you, mister. Don't worry, we'll pitch in since their daddy is away!!" "I hope that they grow up to be as bright as you." "MHM." "And they've got your red hair! They're so cute... ♥" Someone asks, "Have you settled on names for themI" In a close-up of the swaddled infants, the mother names them: "...AND SHAMROCK. SHANKS..." The babies react with wide eyes and waving hands as bold text declares "A TWIN BIRTH!!" with dramatic sound effects.
