The wait for the next chapter of Eiichiro Oda’s monumental flashback continues. One Piece Chapter 1163 is shaping up to be one of the most pivotal and emotionally charged entries in the God Valley Incident saga. Following the explosive events of Chapter 1162, titled “God Valley Battle Royale,” the story now stands at the brink of its long-awaited climax.
According to the official Weekly Shonen Jump release schedule, One Piece Chapter 1163 will be available on Sunday, October 19, 2025, through Viz Media and MANGA Plus.
The previous chapter delivered one of the most chaotic and cinematic sequences in recent memory. While Silvers Rayleigh and Shakuyaku managed to escape, the island descended into a frenzy of blood, betrayal, and divine power. The pirates of the Rocks era turned against each other, the World Government’s God’s Knights arrived to exterminate the survivors, and amidst it all, Rocks D. Xebec stood defiant.
In a shocking twist, Imu made a dramatic descent onto the battlefield—possessing Saint Saturn’s body and fusing with the monstrous Gyuki form. The sight left even Rocks speechless as he muttered, “This is the World itself.” Oda’s storytelling here blended tragedy and grandeur: Rocks facing his own corrupted family, the Davy bloodline, while Big Mom and Kaidou severed their uneasy alliance after Kaidou consumed the stolen Uo Uo no Mi, Model: Seiryu.
Meanwhile, Kuma and Ivankov risked everything to save civilians and slaves, signaling the first steps of Kuma’s heroic journey. On another front, Garp witnessed the cruel “Native Hunting Competition” led by the Celestial Dragons—an awakening that would define his moral struggle against the World Government for decades to come.
