Oda’s Message About The Eyepatch Pirate That He Wants To Introduce in One Piece

  • Oda Wants To Introduce A Pirate With An Eyepatch
  • This Pirate Will Hold Legendary Status

Oda, the creator of One Piece, often sketches out plotlines and characters years before they appear in the narrative, a fact that fans have come to expect given his extensive planning. In fact, he has openly shared that he’s already decided on the final scene of One Piece and knows how it will conclude. Therefore, it’s no wonder that fans closely scrutinize every word he says.

Over time, Oda has made numerous intriguing remarks about various characters in the series, one of which concerns a unique pirate with an eye patch. Although this character hasn’t appeared yet, speculation is high that we’ll see him soon within the storyline. Here’s what Oda shared regarding the eyepatch-wearing pirate:

The creator of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda, announced in 2007 that a pirate character with an eye patch will make an appearance in the final phase of the series. Excited to bring this character to life through his art, Oda has never drawn any pirates with eye patches before, challenging his own artistic abilities. Despite the common perception that many pirates wear eye patches, it’s a unique twist for Eiichiro Oda in his work.

Why The Eyepatch Pirate Might Be Rocks D. Xebec

Rocks D. Xebec Was Just Introduced In Elbaf Again

In the popular series “One Piece,” the true nature of Rocks D. Xebec remains a mystery for now, but it’s possible that Oda may disclose all about him during this current arc. This is plausible given that Rocks D. Xebec once visited Elbaf and had numerous encounters with Loki. Intriguingly, Loki admires Rocks greatly, so a full flashback involving Loki could potentially reveal Rocks in the flesh. Such a revelation might not be too far off now.

I was simply born in the wrong era. — Loki, wanting to be a crewmate of Rocks.

Regarding the infamous eyepatch-wearing pirate in One Piece, it’s widely believed that this character could very well be Rocks D. Xebec. In the upcoming final saga, there are not many new pirates expected to appear. Among those who have yet to fully debut are Rocks D. Xebec, Joy Boy, and the Man with the Burn Scar. Given the scarcity of new pirate characters, it’s highly likely that the eyepatch pirate belongs to this trio.

Rocks presents a thrilling enigma as fans are aware that his complete appearance remains undisclosed even today. Despite Oda previously illustrating his outline without an eyepatch, he has a reputation for drawing inexact silhouettes, implying that Rocks could indeed be the pirate with the eye patch.

The Eyepatch Pirate Might Show Up In Loki’s Flashback

As a fervent fan, I can’t contain my excitement! Oda, our master storyteller, is about to unveil Loki’s captivating flashback, delving deep into the life of this enigmatic character – from his birth until he finds himself shackled in Elbaf. The Rocks Pirates crew will make their grand entrance in Elbaf, and we’ll finally get a glimpse of their motivations.

The flashback will offer an intimate perspective on Loki, allowing us to witness his encounter with the elusive Rocks. This meeting will shed light on Rocks’ character, revealing him as a source of inspiration for Loki. Over the years, Oda has skillfully kept Rocks hidden from our eyes, but that secret won’t last much longer!

The moment when Rocks’ full design is unveiled could be accompanied by the addition of an eye patch, increasing the mystery surrounding this captivating character even further. I can hardly wait to see what other secrets Oda has in store for us!

In just a few days, we’ll be getting our hands on One Piece Chapter 1146! Typically, it releases every Sunday. For those in Japan, the release is at 12AM JST on Monday. But don’t worry international readers, you can expect to read it on April 20, 2025. That’s right, mark your calendars for the official release date!
