ONE PIECE once again highlights the powers of its characters, and this time, Shanks becomes one of the figures that draws attention. The latest chapter signals that there may be other individuals who could surpass his strength. This revelation comes alongside a glimpse into Shanks' past that is finally shown.

Shanks is known to have ties to the Figarland family, which holds a high position in the Holy Land. This family is depicted as a group with the highest status, and Shanks' father has been confirmed as one of the Five Elders. This suggests that Shanks' potential is strongly rooted in his lineage.

Quoting from Comic Book, this information then leads to the possibility that his twin brother, Shamrock, possesses abilities that may even exceed Shanks'. ONE PIECE Chapter 1167 titled IDA'S SONS begins to show Shanks' youth while in the Holy Land. This section highlights Shanks' objective of infiltrating and gathering information.

2. Shamrock is Described as a Figure that Surpasses Shanks

The comments made by Figarland in that chapter hint that Shamrock is at a higher level of power. The revelation that Shamrock is Shanks' twin brother also corrects the assumption that Shanks is an evil figure. This explanation confirms that the cruel actions allegedly committed by Shanks actually originated from Shamrock.

Shamrock was previously shown almost defeating Loki, one of the strongest giants still alive. Even though Loki was chained at the time, Shamrock's achievement still demonstrates his superior strength. Chapter 1167 also adds that Shanks can reach the same level if he makes an advanced contract with Imu known as the Depths Covenant.

In that flashback, it is evident that Shamrock is already above Shanks, and his power is likely continuing to increase. Meanwhile, Shanks, who has lost his left arm, may have experienced a decline in his swordsmanship abilities.

With Shamrock being prepared as one of the final villains, he is shaped as a figure that surpasses the hero. This makes their clash feel increasingly inevitable. Who among these siblings has superior power will only be answered when they finally fight directly in the future.
