One Piece: Oda Has Revealed A Secret Member Of The Davy Clan, And It’s Not Blackbeard

This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Elbaf Arc.

The Elbaf arc of *One Piece* has delivered some amazing surprises, and one of the most thrilling is the introduction of the Davy Clan. Fans have known for years about a legendary pirate named Davy Jones, and now we know he actually existed within the world of *One Piece*. While he may be gone, it’s clear he has living descendants, which is incredibly exciting for what’s to come.

Something really interesting came to light during the Elbaf arc: Rocks D. Xebec, a major figure from the past, was actually a descendant of Davy Jones! It turns out Rocks even concealed his full name – it was Davy D. Xebec – likely to stay hidden. And it wasn’t just Rocks; there were other descendants of Davy Jones out there. We already knew Blackbeard was one, carrying on his father’s legacy. But it seems Oda might have hinted at another character with Davy Jones’s bloodline – Buggy the Clown! After becoming one of the Four Emperors in *One Piece*, it’s becoming clear Buggy may be more connected to the past than we thought.

Buggy Could Be A Hidden Member Of The Davy Clan

The Davy Clan Was Hunted By The World Government

  • Buggy Was On Roger’s Ship
  • He Could Be Connected To Rocks

While many fans initially doubted a link between Buggy and the Rocks Pirates, Od has consistently pointed out compelling evidence. Buggy’s childhood connection to Shanks, who was raised in God Valley, suggests Buggy himself has ties to that place. It’s probable Buggy was saved from God Valley, and it’s already known that the island was home to many people descended from the Davy Clan.

Fans have also noticed a striking resemblance between Buggy and Rocks. From Rocks’ initial appearance, it was clear the two characters looked remarkably alike. Oda even emphasized this similarity in their wanted posters. This uncanny resemblance, combined with the fact that Buggy’s age aligns with the timeline of the God Valley Incident, makes the connection even more plausible.

Fans have long suspected Buggy isn’t who he seems, and evidence is mounting to support this. A promotional advertisement for *One Piece* revealed clues about his hidden family history, connecting him to the Davy Clan. Most notably, the author, Oda, has confirmed that Buggy’s nose is actually a prosthetic, used to conceal his true lineage. With each new reveal, the possibility of Buggy being a member of the Davy Clan seems increasingly likely.

Buggy’s Real Name Could Be Davy D. Buggy

He Will Play A Huge Role In The Final Saga

While it hasn’t been officially revealed, strong evidence suggests that Buggy is part of the Davy Clan, potentially making his full name Davy D. Buggy. He might even be the second son of Rocks D. Xebec, a fact he may have learned during the events at God Valley. Buggy and Blackbeard share many similarities, and if they are brothers, they could be incredibly important players in the final arc of *One Piece*. We’ve even previously suggested they might team up against the Navy. No matter how the story unfolds, Buggy is likely to be a key figure in the concluding saga of *One Piece*.

The newest chapter of *One Piece*, Chapter 1161, will be released this week, as usual on Sundays. While it becomes available in Japan at midnight on Monday (JST), most fans around the world will be able to read it on September 28, 2025. You can read the chapter for free on Manga Plus.
