by

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

Last week’s release of *One Piece* chapter 1162 was postponed because the author, Eiichiro Oda, wasn’t feeling well, but he’s now recovered! That means the new chapter is coming very soon. The story is currently focused on the exciting God Valley Incident, and Oda is finally revealing the secrets of this island, which he first introduced six chapters ago. Chapter 1162 will be a huge one for God Valley, particularly now that the romantic side story has concluded. Get ready for major battles, with a spotlight on characters like Rocks D. Xebec, Garp, and Roger, as well as others like Garling.

Oda has already established a significant conflict between the Rocks Pirates and Roger’s crew, even calling Rocks Roger’s biggest rival. Now, it’s time for him to reveal the truth about what happened at God Valley – the details of the fight between these two groups, or whether the stories we’ve heard are just Marine exaggeration.

Rocks’s Fights Will Finally Begin In One Piece 1162

Rocks Will Come Across the World Government’s Strongest

  • Rocks D. Xebec Vs Holy Knights is a possibility
  • Rocks will defeat his enemies

Rocks D. Xebec is clearly the central figure in the God Valley Incident in *One Piece*. Fans are eagerly waiting to see his story unfold, and it’s time for the author, Oda, to fully reveal it. Now that the storyline about Rayleigh rescuing Shakky is complete, Oda can finally show us the details of the major battles that took place on that island, like the fight between Roger and Rocks. It’s also possible the official accounts of these battles aren’t entirely true and that the real story is different.

Chapter 1162 of *One Piece* will likely reveal a lot about Rocks D. Xebec. We’ll probably see him fighting, attempting to reach Eris and Blackbeard. If the major conflicts are about to begin, he’ll likely prioritize protecting his family, possibly even acting as a distraction to help them escape. This means he’ll be facing powerful enemies like the Holy Knights and the Marines. Expect a significant fight involving Rocks in this chapter, and it’s possible Oda will show a large-scale battle between him and the captain of the Holy Knights.

Imu Might Get Involved In God Valley

Gunko Is In God Valley Currently

Right now, everyone’s talking about the Rocks Pirates in God Valley, but Roger and Garp are also important characters to watch. Chapter 1162 of *One Piece* will likely move their stories forward, and fans are eager to see how they connect to the Rocks. Don’t forget that the Holy Knights, including Saturn, are also present on Egghead Island, which means Imu has someone who can take over if needed. It’s likely Imu will take control of Gunko in God Valley, given their strong connection. Many believe the biggest fight in the God Valley war will be between Imu and Rocks, and that this battle will finally explain how the Rocks Pirates were defeated. Fans are incredibly excited to see what happens next in this *One Piece* arc, but unfortunately, there’s a break coming up, so they’ll have to wait a bit longer to find out.

One Piece Chapter 1162 is scheduled for release this week, as usual on Sundays. While it becomes available in Japan at midnight on Monday (JST), most international fans will be able to read it on October 12th. The official release date is October 12, 2025, and the chapter will be available for free on Manga Plus.
