Here’s what fans might expect in One Piece Chapter 1163, based on the threads left hanging in the previous installment:
After decades of mystery, this chapter could finally reveal how Rocks met his end. His refusal to flee and his stand against Imu may redefine him — not merely as a tyrant, but as a man who challenged the very order of the world. Whether his defeat comes through Imu’s divine might or betrayal from within his crew remains uncertain.
Whitebeard’s loyalty to his captain showed his moral depth, hinting at his later devotion to family over ambition. For Kaidou, this first fight in dragon form might explain his obsession with strength and the despair that shaped his rule in Wano.
Chapter 1162 laid the groundwork for Garp’s moral awakening. One Piece Chapter 1163 could show his first act of defiance against Marine orders — saving civilians despite direct commands. This could mark the start of his lifelong distrust toward the World Government.
For the first time, Imu might enter direct combat. The grotesque fusion with Saturn hints at a power that transcends Devil Fruits — possibly connected to the Mother Flame or ancient Haki techniques from the Void Century. This could also clarify why Imu fears the return of “chaos.”
Eris’s promise to reunite with Rocks in Lulusia — a kingdom later erased by Imu — suggests a tragic destiny. Whether she survives or not, her fate may deeply influence Blackbeard’s future and his mysterious heritage.
