The chapter begins with an unexpected emotional moment — Rocks D. Xebec helps both Eris and an elder version of Teach (possibly a Blackbeard ancestor) escape from the battlefield. This act of compassion contrasts sharply with Rocks’ infamous image as a merciless tyrant.
Before departing, Eris leaves a cryptic message for Rocks: “Meet me in Lulusia.” Considering the island’s later destruction, this single line has ignited speculation among fans about ancient connections between Rocks’ bloodline and the mysteries surrounding Lulusia and the Void Century.
