Speculations Shanks is Rocks son

#1
I think Roger took him on his ship because he felt sorry over killing his father. We don’t know anything about Shanks past other than his time on Roger’s ship.

Also we don’t know Shanks full name.
Whitebeard said to Shanks when they met ”Seeing your face makes the wound given by that bastard ache”, he’s probably talking about Rocks and not Roger because he spoke about him normally afterwards and he was on good terms with Roger.

Rocks discovered alot of dirt on the WG and Shanks is probably using that against the WG, like when he stopped the war and being able to speak to the Gorosei.

He has something on the government that forces them to obey Shanks and he got that from Rocks.

It doesn't seem like Shanks is a D and his last name is Akagami. Even if he was given a name switcharoo like Ace he would still retain the D in his name. Portgas/Gol D Ace. Akagami/Xebec D Shanks. It doesn't seem likely that he is Rock's son to me. Still think he's probably some Celestial Dragon gone rogue.

A pretty common theory I guess. I saw people after this chapter leaning more towards Dragon being his son because of hair:milaugh:
Blackbeard could be his son too.

Akagami means red hair, that’s not his last name.

Everyone is Rocks's sons. They just don't know about it yet.
Read your post again, Dragon is Garp’s son lmao, people are tripping.

Blackbeard’s ship is called Saber of Xebec and he’s on the island Xebec’s crew used to be at so he might be related to Xebec somehow. Either him or Shanks is his son imo.

Blackbeard doesn't need to be his son just because of this. He could be just a child that picked his interest in Xebec and decided to pay a tribute to him I guess.

Blackbeard is too big of a character to be like Bartolomeo, he also doesn’t give a shit about anyone, he was on WB’s ship for decades and never cared about them. He must be related somehow.

Well there's not much of Canon to determine that but speculations are always nice to look at from a Fan perspective.

I hope that Shanks was just a common guy who built himself via hardwork and his descendancy were humble.
That’s almost never the case in shonen, even Luffy who I personally wanted to just be a normal guy who built himself up turned out to have alot of things going for him outside of hard work.

Perhaps, that would be crazy but I think he’s actually Garps son because otherwise Luffy wouldn’t be Garp’s grandson and adult Luffy resembles Garp alot.
Yep, im just trowing that out because idk, Dragon kinda looks like Rock's....But then again, Luffy dont look nothing like his dad lol.

Plus i dont see garp as a family man, show us Luffy's grandma, Oda, goddamit!
:zorothink:
