Rocks Rocks pirate captain D. Xebec
Little is known about Rocks D. Xebec, from whom this fearsome group of pirates took its name. He is definitely ambitious as his dream is to overthrow the World Government and become King of the World. To achieve that, he will stop at nothing: he has no problem with killing innocent people or spreading destruction. Rocks is also interested in topics that the World Government tries to hide. According to his name, Rocks is also one of the heirs to “the will of D.”, with his middle initial making him a sworn enemy of the World Nobles and their government .
Rocks’ strength and power can only be inferred but he is on par with the strongest people in the world. He was able to command individuals such as Whitebeard, Big Mom, and Kaido, who would become the strongest pirates of their generation. Xebec is considered Pirate King Gol D. Roger’s most formidable opponent, and he is so powerful that both Roger and Monkey D. Garp had to team up to defeat him. Ultimately, Kaido places Rocks with a small group of five people who were able to injure him throughout his life, confirming Xebec’s fearsome power.
Emperors: Whitebeard, Big Mom and Kaido
The most prominent former members of the Rocks Pirates are the three former Emperors, Whitebeard, Big Mom and Kaido. Considering how heroic Whitebeard is portrayed, it’s surprising that he joined the Rocks Pirates, but it’s likely before he settled into his kinder personality. However, Big Mom and Kaido are exactly the types of people who could become Rocks Pirates, both because of their viciousness and because of how badly they work with others, and despite their established an alliance in the Wano arc, but nothing happened. that was thanks to their defeat at the hands of Luffy, Law and Kid.
Golden Lion Shiki
Another notable member of the Rocks Pirates is Shiki the Golden Lion. Shiki was once Roger’s rival, and the two of them along with Whitebeard were the rulers of the New World before Roger’s execution and the founding of the Four Emperors. Shiki is the main antagonist of One Piece Film: Strong World, making him one of the few movie characters to be canon in the series, and although he has been mentioned a few times in the manga , but his cameo in chapter #1096 is his first appearance in canon outside of the strong world in Volume 0.
Captain John
One of the more surprising members of the Rocks Pirates was the long-deceased Captain John. Captain John first appeared as a random member of Moria’s General Zombies, the only thing of note being that he had a penchant for alcohol and was killed by the crew for refusing to reveal it. location of his treasure, but Wano’s arc reveals that he is a former member of the Rocks Pirates. Moria may have turned him into a zombie because of his rivalry with Kaido, also a Rocks pirate, and Buggy’s knowledge of his treasure in the Impel Down arc may also have originated from Roger’s history with the Rocks Pirates.
Buckingham Stussy
One of the characters recently revealed to be a Rocks Pirate is Buckingham Stussy aka Miss Buckin. The Egghead arc confirms that it was during her and Whitebeard’s tenure in the Rocks Pirates that Buckin fell in love with Whitebeard; Buckin also claims that her son, Edward Weevil, is Whitebeard’s son, but Vegapunk is apparently the only one who can prove it. It is also revealed that she is a member of the MADS scientific research institute, although she is just a parasite, and through their research they created a clone of her who would eventually join CP0 as a double agent for Vegapunk.
sprinkle
Another recently revealed member of the Rocks Pirates is “Gourmet Knight” Streusen. After witnessing young Big Mom eating her family, Streusen manipulated her into becoming the tyrant she is today and currently holds the position of head chef of the Big Mom Pirates. Streusen made a brief appearance with the rest of the Rocks Pirates in chapter #1096 to confirm her membership and consider that Big Mom’s time in the Rocks Pirates was well before she became Emperor. So, it makes sense that Streusen, Big Mom’s closest confidant, would also be a member of the Rocks Pirates at that time.
glory
Another surprising member of the Rocks Pirates is former Amazon Queen Lily Gloriosa aka Elder Nyon. Despite being an ally of both Luffy and Hancock, chapter #1096 reveals that she was also once a member of the Rocks Pirates, making her and Whitebeard the only former members to become allies of Luffy. Chapter #1096 also implies that Gloriosa is in love with another member of the Rocks Pirates, possibly Whitebeard, so her tenure with the Rocks Pirates may have occurred when she fell victim to the Disease. love of the Kuja tribe and needing to leave Amazon Lily to be with her love.
Other members of The Rocks Pirates
Two other notable members of the Rocks Pirates are Wang Zhi and Silver Ax; While nothing is known about Silver Ax, Wang Zhi was once the ruler of Pirate Island until Blackbeard took control after the Rocky Harbor Incident. Interestingly, one of Moria’s General Zombies wears silver armor and wields an axe, and another zombie, Zombie #889, has similar characteristics to the Rocks Pirate who appeared in chapter #1096, so they could be easily Silver Ax and another member of the gang. crew. Rayleigh’s wife Shakky is also said to be a cast member in SBS episode #90, but that idea has yet to be explored.
The legacy of The Rocks pirates
The Rocks Pirates are so powerful and dangerous that the World Government feels directly threatened by them. Thirty-eight years before the current events in the manga, they attacked God Valley during the Native Hunting Contest to reclaim Pirate Island’s treasure and stole both the Fish-Fish Fruit and the Paw- Fruit. Paw, and while there, they also decided to attack the Heavenly Dragons and their slaves. Full details of the God Valley Incident have yet to be revealed, but Garp and Roger were forced to work together to defeat them, thus causing the gang to disintegrate and earning Garp the pejorative nickname “The Water Hero.” Marine Corps”.
Despite the importance of that event, the Rocks Pirates remained relatively unknown to the next generation. This is due to a combination of the former members not wanting to talk about it due to their internal disputes and the World Government covering up their exploits because of how dangerous the Rocks are. Anyway, Pirate rock remains one of the most mysterious and important organizations of all A piecebut as the series is slowly coming to an end, more information about them will surely be revealed, especially Rocks D. Xebec, specifically in the coming months.
