Chapter 1159 of One Piece drops several confirmed plot details. Most notably, it reveals Rocks’ full name and connects multiple key characters to the God Valley incident. Below I’ll list the facts the chapter makes clear, and then break them down by topic.
- Rocks’ true name and lineage
- The Davy clan and the “Super Rare Rabbits”
- Who was at God Valley
- Blackbeard’s childhood link
- What happened in the God Valley incident
Rocks’ true name and lineage
The chapter confirms that Rocks’ full name is Davy D. Xebec. It also states that he is a descendant of the pirate known as Davy Jones. The reveal is explicit in the manga text and panels.
The Davy clan and the “Super Rare Rabbits”
Chapter 1159 shows that members of the Davy bloodline have been persecuted by the World Government. It also reveals that Davy descendants reappear after a long absence; specifically, the chapter says the Davy clan last appeared 800 years ago.
In the same chapter, young Teech and his mother are identified as two of thirteen “Super Rare Rabbits”. That phrasing is used directly in the chapter.
Who was at God Valley
The chapter places a number of important figures at God Valley during the incident. Confirmed attendees include King Harald of Elbaph, members of Rocks’ crew, and a Marine ship in the area. It also shows Buccaneer Kuma crossing paths with Ginny and Ivankov there.
Additionally, the chapter indicates Monkey D. Dragon was stationed at God Valley as a Marine at the time. The text and panels make this connection clear.
Blackbeard’s childhood link
Chapter 1159 depicts that Blackbeard spent part of his childhood on the island tied to the God Valley events. The chapter ties his early life to the same island where Shanks and his brother Shamrock were born, and it shows Teech and his mother suffering persecution by the Celestial Dragons and the World Government while on that island.
What happened in the God Valley incident
The chapter presents several concrete events from the God Valley incident. Rocks is shown prioritizing a personal mission to rescue his wife and son, whom he had sent away for protection. Meanwhile, a Celestial Dragon-led native-hunting tournament had targeted God Valley.
During the incident, King Harald drinks sake with Rocks in a scene of mutual respect, rather than immediate combat. The chapter also shows Garling killing the mother of his children shortly after meeting them.
Finally, the chapter confirms the long-established outcome: Rocks was defeated at God Valley by Gol D. Roger and Monkey D. Garp.
Other on-page details
The chapter displays a number of rare Devil Fruit prizes present at God Valley, and it links that location to later distribution of those prizes to figures who appear in the present timeline. The manga specifically connects some of those Devil Fruit prizes to users who exist later in the story, including Kaido.
Those are the concrete, text-and-panel-confirmed facts from chapter 1159. If you want to read the chapter yourself, check official releases for the full context and artwork.
