One Piece Chapter 1162 Leaks & Spoilers: Verified Raw Scans and Release Schedule Details
The God Valley sequence does not exist in isolation. Oda uses these historical revelations to ground the present-day events unfolding in the land of Elbaf. As Luffy, Dorry, Brogy, and the Straw Hat crew uncover ancient giants' lore, the historical crimes of Saint Saturn, Figarland Garling, and the Holy Knights retroactively explain the geopolitical division of the modern seas.
The revelations in Chapter 1162 permanently reshape how readers interpret the Void Century and the Great Cleansing. By proving that Imu actively stepped onto the front lines to wipe out Rocks D. Xebec and eliminate an entire island from living memory, the manga raises the stakes for Luffy's Sun God Nika awakening. The final war will not simply be a battle for pirate supremacy, but a direct reckoning against an immortal tyrant who has crushed rebellion across centuries.
