One Piece Chapter 1162 Reveals Eris’s Past as a Pirate

Rocks D. Xebec stands at the heart of this chapter’s chaos. With Teach and Eris on his back, he runs through the burning island, with Garling and a demon turned Davy Clan member, including his own father and grandmother, pursuing him.
Eris, knowing her odds, asks Rocks to let her go. Her moving monologue confirms that she was once a pirate before moving to God Valley. She assures him that she can take care of their son on her own. And even if they were to get captured, she would kill their son and herself. Rocks has no choice but to leave her, promising they will meet again in Lulusia.
Rocks vs. Garling and the Demonic Army

In one of the most shocking scenes in years, Big Mom plans to give Azure Dragon Fruit (Fish-Fish Model) to Katakuri, hoping to strengthen her future crew. But Kaido ambushes her, knocking her over with his kanabo and devouring the fruit himself. In seconds, Kaido transforms into a dragon and flees from there.
At the same time, Rocks D. Xebec stands against Garling and his demonic army of Davy Clan in a gruesome, high-stakes fight. Despite being outnumbered, Rocks totally dominates the battlefield. His attacks even disrupt their regeneration, suggesting there might be a way to kill seemingly immortal beings like the Gorosei.

His adaptability in the middle of battle proves he’s not just about brute strength; he’s got brains too, making him the perfect balance of both.
What Makes Imu’s Gyuuki Form So Terrifying in One Piece 1162?

Just when it seems things could not get any worse, Imu arrives, not in person, but through Saturn’s monstrous “Gyuuki” spider form. The sight alone terrifies everyone, including Roger and Garp, who can barely comprehend what they’re witnessing.
Saturn’s body twists into something demonic as Imu’s shadowy silhouette towers above, eyes glowing in the dark. The imagery is chilling, with many fans speculating that Oda may be drawing parallels to ancient myths like the Egyptian serpent Apep, the destroyer of light.
Whitebeard and Kaido Join Rocks for the Final Showdown

Even after Rocks warns that there’s nothing to gain from fighting Imu, Whitebeard laughs it off and stands beside him, showing his pride and loyalty. Then, flying through the air, Kaido descends in his dragon form, ready to try out his new power.
The final double-page spread is legendary: Rocks, Whitebeard, and Kaido stand side by side, facing Imu-Saturn as chaos engulfs God Valley. From a distance, Roger watches with a grin while Garp looks on in horror at the scale of destruction.
The chapter concludes with Rocks answering to Whitebeard that they are looking at “the world” itself. A statement that may hint at Imu’s true nature as a force of chaos, the embodiment of the world’s hidden evil.
