The recent flashback revealed Rocks D. Xebec to be a truly legendary pirate, but it also showed him in a new light – not just as a villain, but as a passionate and ambitious leader, similar to other pirates of his time. However, his ambitions were far grander than anyone had ever seen, ultimately leading to his downfall. The flashback really showcased the Rocks Pirates, presenting them as a realistic and compelling group of notorious pirates. Now that the story of God Valley is complete, Eiichiro Oda has emphasized the impact of the Rocks Pirates with a special illustration in the latest chapter of One Piece.
