Intriguingly, Chapter 1158 returns us to God Valley, a trip taken a year before the notorious God Valley Incident and the Native Hunting Competition. This chapter offers some insight into Shamrock and Shanks’ mother, who possesses long red hair similar to her sons, suggesting they were both born on God Valley. Although viewers don’t see Shanks’ mother’s face because the twins are in a stroller and only a year old at this moment in time, it is probable that they grew up on God Valley from their very beginnings. Shamrock also mentions visiting God Valley exactly a year ago in the most recent chapter, suggesting that both Shanks and Shamrock spent their early years on God Valley with their mother. If true, this could be the key to understanding how the infants were present during the dangerous Native Hunting Competition and ultimately found themselves within the treasure chest that wound up on Roger’s ship.
