| And here I thought Garling couldn't look worse. He had to pull up with the homies to finish off 0.1HP Rock's. That's the champion of God Valley. Oda definitely managed to make him despicable, yet not necessarily all in a good way. Now I understand why Whitebeard, Linlin and Kaido were written dense enough to leave. If they stayed they would've packed the Holy Bums. And it definitely leaves a bad taste when Roger and Garp put in all the work to defeat a goated character like Rock's. This makes his death even sadder. RIP legend. This character was a blast similar to Oden. And he died smiling like the others. Shanks vs Blackbeard would be lole the opposite. Cause in all fairness, based on current feats Blackbeard ain't winning against Blackbeard head on. It's even a bad match up for Teach since his Yami Yami no Mi works best against Devil Fruit users. God Valley as a whole had it's hype, even tho it could've been so much more. This genuinely had the potenial to be an entire arc. With the limited amount of chapters it sadly felt rushed. As a aforementioned I wasn't a fan of Whitebeard abandoning Xebec so easily when he was ready to fight at his side against Imu. Everyone with eyes in their head saw that something was wrong with him. First ever interaction between Garp and Dragon on screen. Garp redeemed himself. I still think that his reaction in the Kuzan flashback really doesn't match with how he was portrayed here. In this chapter he seems somewhat ashamed and understanding of Dragon. Rightfully after witnessing what the WG is like. When hearing about his son becoming a revolutionary he was so pissed, tho. This should've been handled better. The Garp and Sengoku conversation was so much better on the other hand. There's still the issue with Garp while saving Ace apparently didn't do anything to help the several pregnant women, mothers and innocent children who got killed π Harald is suffering from the same "fool" syndrome Oden did. He wants to atone and give his people a chance. He means well, but he's also being too naive and clueless about who he's dealing with there. Should've joined Xebec. |

One Piece episode 914 & 915 & 1027 were a mistake and 957 brought the salvation - FMmatron |
| Yeah Garling and the God Knights generally are such losers tbh. Introduced to be a troop of dishonorable punch bags. I alrdy thought that Harald would remove his horns for joining the World Gouverment, but hoped that he'll do that in rage of Xebecs death. After the legendary Xebec Arc i hope we will get fast through the 3min how you killed Harald Loki Flashback to see the present and hopefully the Strawhat Crew who wipes the floor with this God Knights. Edit after reading full chap: I hoped to see the marines reaction how Gaban safed Garp haha too bad. That Harald cried for Rocks also a good point for his character in summary, that removes imo the reservations against him, that he's a Gouverment Dog. |

| Interesting to see how Garp easily accepted Dragon leaving the Marines, I never pictured it going that way but it makes sense with how things went And after a tremendous detour, we're finally back to the focus of this flashback! |
| When your teammates do 99% of the damage but you steal the kill. That's Garling in a nutshell. Rocks was only around for like, 10 chapters but has already earned himself a place amongst my One Piece GOATs. RIP to that legend. I didn't expect the full God Valley Incident to be embedded within this Harald flashback but it sure did deliver. Showcased a goated character and gave us some of the series' best chapters. Man I feel bad for Harald. And now here he is prostrating himself in front of the government, all for that to lead to what we know will eventually happen to him. Oh yeah I almost forgot, that Garp/Sengoku conversation showed that the whole "Garp is a fraud" agenda should be directed at Sengoku instead. Despite the corruption, Garp stays in the Marines with good intentions, literally calling himself a "guard dog," meanwhile Sengoku straight up admits "yeah if the top dogs get a little too corrupt I'm just gonna put my head down and let it slide" π Garp calling him a promotion-chaser was the cherry on top. Oda is literally beating us over the head to debunk the anti-Garp fraud agenda but I'm sure there are people who will still completely miss the point and keep sounding dumb π |

| People on MAL refuse to actually enjoy watching anime. Your taste in anime isn't a personality trait. Take me back to the days before MAL became infested with Twitter's favorite buzzwords. |
| Rocks was such an awesome character and the Knights are such pushovers (pretty in line with the pettiness of the tenryubito). Nice to see that Garp did a couple of good things. |
 |
| garland a bum sengoku all talk. go do another buster call on ohara... i like garp letting dragon go. pretty cool |
 |
| Damn, Harald's determination is really fascinating thing to behold. Next level commitment. Garp's and Dragon's conversation, while somewhat underwhelming, was also hilarious. π |
| Oda really off-screened Roger's 2nd and 3rd in command vs God Knights? But... that ending was so good, I hope we can get some more of Harald. |
 |
| Garp and Sengoku bickering, I know a lot of agenda pushers are not gonna like that panel lol. |
| Harald really shoulda just joined rocks.. also this flashback is gonna go to 2026 at this point.. |
| Penguins are funny |
| Who would have ever thought that there would be a time where One Piece fans would be cheering Blackbeard's father while thinking of Shanks' father as the lowest of the lowest scum. |
 |
| You know just now realized how it's weird that Harald was (according to Rocks) very important but still Rocks never explained to him everything about Imu, D and Davy clan, etc. If Rocks told him about Imu maybe Harald would join him and fixed the world. |

| @Za_Panda Ahh man sorry for reply (not a big fan of as long as not necessary) but i never thougth about this omg such a good point. After these two decades already for (as me) taking Shanks above Blackbeard (obviously i guess) in who's cooler etc. we got respectively the vice versa for their Father's haha. |

Get on the Blackbeard train unc  |
| color page was a cute one. god valley incident ending man you hate to see it. tbf i was starting to think we'd never even get it so i'm glad we did. i can't help but feel bad for loki. dragon and garp interaction wow but he never expected dragon to go and start his own organization lmao. that garp and sengoku interaction was interesting as well, especially their dog analogy. harald means well but he's definitely a little lost in his ways. |
 |
| Either those Holy Knights are insanely a joke or their enemies (pirates) are just godly epically strong. |
 |
| peak chapter alala that's why Harald was saying no... |
| if you hated this episode/chapter, just watch/read something else... 100k on IG (https://www.instagram.com/otakuweek?igsh=em5kY3Q4NTVtNXlh) Discord (https://discord.gg/vbZrk64uH7) for anime links / news / recom etc |
| Harald always barked up the wrong tree. He was trying to raise the next generation of Giant kids as people who wouldn't harm anyone but little did he know about the plans that Emu had in store for Elbalf and the things that are currently unfolding in Elbalf.. ππ |

Shanks vs Blackbeard would be lole the opposite. Cause in all fairness, based on current feats Blackbeard ain't winning against Blackbeard head on. It's even a bad match up for Teach since his Yami Yami no Mi works best against Devil Fruit users.
God Valley as a whole had it's hype, even tho it could've been so much more. This genuinely had the potenial to be an entire arc. With the limited amount of chapters it sadly felt rushed. As a aforementioned I wasn't a fan of Whitebeard abandoning Xebec so easily when he was ready to fight at his side against Imu. Everyone with eyes in their head saw that something was wrong with him.
First ever interaction between Garp and Dragon on screen. Garp redeemed himself. I still think that his reaction in the Kuzan flashback really doesn't match with how he was portrayed here. In this chapter he seems somewhat ashamed and understanding of Dragon. Rightfully after witnessing what the WG is like. When hearing about his son becoming a revolutionary he was so pissed, tho. This should've been handled better.
The Garp and Sengoku conversation was so much better on the other hand. There's still the issue with Garp while saving Ace apparently didn't do anything to help the several pregnant women, mothers and innocent children who got killed π
Harald is suffering from the same "fool" syndrome Oden did. He wants to atone and give his people a chance. He means well, but he's also being too naive and clueless about who he's dealing with there. Should've joined Xebec.

| @Niwaka-Samurai This scene here is implying that Garp himself is ashamed to be part of the WG. He can't disagree with Dragon in this chapter because he knows Dragon is right. Between Dragon leaving the Navy and becomig a Revo he was also a Freedom Fighter. My point is that when Garp knows how wicked the WG is based on his first hand experience and doesn't disagree with Dragon hating him for still being part of the Navy, then he he shouldn't get pissed at him for becoming a Revo, lol. Doesn't make sense for him to react like that when he's supposedly aware of how problematic the current regime is and that he's somewhat feeling guilty about that. If anything he should be approving that course of action in secret since his son is fighting for a better world. |

| Man, it was a good decision to binge read the last 17 chapters. The flashback had such a smooth flow, it was painful to wait every week. |

Garp wanted to change the Navy and the world government by being within or at least try to be there for the few good people in them. But as you said, Dragon had a different view and Garp should respect that. Even Luffy's. |
| Garp's giving him the keys to leave like nothing is honestly hilarious Harald :(( WE NEED LOKI TO JOIN THE STRAWHATS. PLEASE ODA. |
 |
| RIP goat, it was sad to see Harald's reaction |
| "Is there light at the end of this tunnel?" Not with Imu around... |
| Dragon left and became the biggest threat. Now will we see how Harald die next? |
 |
| RIP xebec you were great, and what garling did was very dirty how he killed xebec considering he was defendless in his state. This god valley incident shows how very immoral and mad world goverment is and seeing garp perspective on god valley how even though he disagrees with world goverment he still stayed as a marine to protect marines and civilians while also understanding dragon perspective why he wants to leave thus allowing him to escape. So that's how they met shanks, stealing chest unaware that shanks is inside this chestπ€£ Also seeing harald grief after wanting to save xebec but he could not due to wg pressauring him to then harald ripping his horns off the skull in marijoa determined to redeem past elbaph actions anf trying making elbaph open to the rest of the wold was very emotional k owing what will happen to him later based on the begining of this flashback. |
