One Piece chapter #1135 is set to kick off 2025 with a bang, shedding new light on the mysterious characters introduced in the series.
The recent buzz surrounding “Shanks’ evil twin” theory has fans eagerly anticipating the upcoming chapter. Chapter #1134, which many expected to focus solely on the ongoing narrative in the enigmatic land of Elbaph, ended with a shocking twist. Observant fans quickly noted a key detail: the Shanks who appeared on Elbaph was missing his iconic scar, lending weight to the theory that this is indeed the speculated evil twin.
The upcoming chapter is expected to delve deeper into the latest twist, but chapter #1134 also included a subtle detail hinting at a different side of Loki. With the Straw Hats now entangled in Elbaph’s unfolding narrative and Louis Arnot’s ominous warning about the island, anticipation for the next chapter couldn’t be higher. However, fans will have to endure a longer wait, as the year draws to a close and Shonen Jump takes a break next week.

What Happened in One Piece Chapter #1134?
As the Straw Hats Continue To Explore Elbaph, the Mysterious Shanks’ Twin Makes an Appearance
One Piece chapter #1134, titled “The Owl Library,” continues with Robin’s heartfelt reunion with Saul, witnessed by the Straw Hats. Luffy thanks Saul for saving Robin, while Saul expresses his joy at seeing Robin surrounded by true friends. Vegapunk Lilith introduces herself as Vegapunk to Saul, revealing her ability to bring Vegapunk through the use of a perfect clone. She also assures Bonney that she will take care of Kuma once her new lab is established on Elbaph.
The Straw Hats, eager to explore Elbaph, are thrilled at the prospect of meeting the young giants destined to become warriors. However, in a surprising twist, a new giant named Ripley, a biology teacher at the Walrus School, reveals that Elbaph no longer teaches the way of the warrior. Respecting the wishes of the late King Harold, the younger generation is now taught the art of trade with other countries instead. As Ripley shows keen interest in Luffy’s Gear 5 form, the chapter shifts focus to Robin and Saul as they visit the Owl Library.
Saul reveals that all the books saved from Ohara during the Buster Call incident 22 years ago have been gathered in the Owl Library, thanks to the efforts of the New Giant Warrior Pirates. Meanwhile, the narrative shifts to the underworld, where Loki is shown speaking to someone via transponder snail, addressing them as a friend. As their conversation intensifies, Loki urges the other person to wreak havoc. In response, the person remarks that they sense a deeper kindness in Loki’s words, a claim Loki vehemently denies while biding his time for an escape.
As One Piece chapter #1134 concludes, a black lightning bolt strikes the castle in the Western Village of Elbaph. Within the same summoning circle used by the Five Elders to teleport, two figures emerge, with one of them bearing a striking resemblance to Shanks.
What Will Happen in One Piece Chapter #1135?
There is no doubt that One Piece chapter #1135 will delve into the mystery surrounding the two enigmatic figures introduced at the end of the previous chapter. It has become clear that the individual bearing a striking resemblance to Shanks is the same person who appeared before the Five Elders during the Levely arc. While many fans initially believed this person to be Shanks, it now seems evident that this is not him but someone with a similar face, or perhaps Shanks’ rumored evil twin.
The upcoming chapter is sure to shed light on this notion, though it’s likely that the new theory could be debunked, as Eiichiro Oda has a history of disproving fan speculations. Additionally, the chapter might delve deeper into the “kindness” hinted at in Loki, as suggested in the latest installment. One Piece Chapter #1135 is poised to expand on these intriguing narratives, further enriching the Elbaph storyline and delivering on the series’ promise of captivating storytelling for over two decades.
