What Happens in One Piece Chapter 1163?
Chapter 1163 picks up in the middle of the battle, with Imu, possessing Saint Saturn’s body, launching indiscriminate attacks on both Marines and pirates. Even Garp’s forces are confused as to whose side to take as chaos takes over the island.
Meanwhile, Rocks confronts Imu directly, who calls him Davy Jones, revealing a mysterious connection to the long-rumored Davy clan. He denies it but hints at an old “promise” they both know must be fulfilled.

An all-out war follows, with Captain John of the Rocks Pirates using the Jiki Jiki no Mi, the very same magnetic Devil Fruit eaten by Kid, to pull in treasure across the island. Ganzui takes him down using Bomu Bomu no Mi’s abilities after realizing Captain John had no intention of splitting the treasure with the rest of the crew.
Elsewhere, Dragon gets knocked out and separated from Shanks, who takes cover inside a treasure chest as chaos erupts. It is worth noting that Shanks, even as a child, was unfazed by Imu’s Supreme King Haki.
The Greatest Alliance in One Piece History
The highlight of the chapter comes when legendary names in the history of the pirate era join forces against Imu. Garp, Roger, Rocks, Whitebeard, Big Mom, and Kaido unleash their ultimate moves: Galaxy Impact, Kamusari, Pandæmonium, Hakua, Ikoku Sovereignty, and Dragon Bolo Breath in one of the most jaw-dropping panels ever.
It ends up destroying Imu’s body entirely, but proves to be useless, as Imu regenerates instantly and unleashes an overwhelming wave of Conqueror’s Haki that wipes nearly everyone nearby.

After hearing Imu talk about his family running across the island forest, Rocks slices him apart, but even that proves futile. Imu’s body reforms, and he taunts Rocks cruelly that he would kill his own family for him.
Using his terrifying ability called Domi Reversi, Imu pierces Rocks with black tentacles and turns him into a demon, commanding him to kill his family. The chapter ends with Rocks beginning to transform into a demon, his fangs growing as his wife Eris and young Teach (Blackbeard) flee through the forest. This brings us almost to the end of the God Valley flashback, with all that is left to watch is Rocks’ fall at the hands of Roger and Garp.
