Character Discussion Shamrock was clearly the guy visiting gorosei

[LokiDragon]

We knew for 4 years now ever since Movie red confirmed shanks is from a CD family and the gorosei never mentiond "shanks ", " yonkous", "pirate", "red hair".
They only said " a man of your stature".

You really think after marineford war, gorosei would welcome on Marijois some yonkous and sit for a cup of tea


You really need sbs to confirm it 4 years later it's not shanks??

More like 8 years later bruh. Reverie happened in 2018....

That said, it can be excused that people didnt want to believe in twin shit for 7 of those years. Im fine with it now, its played out okay, but there was a point where the idea of it seemed really bad and Shanks was doing and saying things that made him seem off at the time. It was clearly an intentional red herring by Oda.

So yeah, its understandable why people assumed it was him if you arent Japanese. It was only guessed properly by Japanese readers who realized that in Japanese, Shanks does not speak nearly as proper as Shamrock does in that scene. Its lost in translation entirely.

Easy to claim hindsight bias now that its said and done lol

This has been painfully obvious for a long time now, and anyone who disagrees won’t be swayed until Oda explicitly states it.

A very lame reveal

Oda explicitly stated in the recent SBS

This was the last chance for Shanks to be a good character
