The God Valley Incident is one of the most important events in One Piece history. It occurred 38 years prior to the current timeline, and it involved some of the biggest names. Eiichiro Oda mentioned the God Valley Incident a long time ago, but he did not disclose all the details.

The author waited until the Elbaf arc to fully reveal what went down in God Valley. Recently, fans got to know that the big prize of the Hunting Competition was Shakuyaku, the former captain of the Kuja Pirates.

Recently, One Piece fans got to know that the God Valley Incident happened because of Shakuyaku. The former Empress of Amazon Lily was residing on Hachinosu, but she was kidnapped and taken hostage by the World Government. Saint. Figarland Garling had already set his eyes on Shakky and wanted her for himself. However, he did not expect that his plans would be foiled by pirates.

When news of Shakky's disappearance went viral, all the pirates around the world flocked to the location. The Rocks Pirates were among the first to arrive on the island, and their landfall caused a great deal of ruckus. The Marines, the Celestial Dragons, and the Holy Knights were all in disarray. The Celestial Dragons were upset that their competition was interrupted, and some of them even insisted on continuing.

But they weren't aware that the situation was about to get a lot worse because the Roger Pirates also made their way to the island. It has already been revealed that Roger had his eye on Shakky, so it wasn't surprising to see him on God Valley. Like most pirates on the island, Roger's plan was to save Shakky and win her over. However, his dream and that of most pirates were crushed by Silvers Rayleigh. He reached the location where Shakky was being kept and immediately dispatched Sommers, thus saving the former Kuja Pirate. Rayleigh and Shakky shared a beautiful moment, and it officially marked the beginning of their relationship.

Since the God Valley Incident is still being covered in the manga, there is plenty more information coming fans' way. One of the most eagerly anticipated events from the entire incident is the fight between Davy D. Xebec and two of the greatest characters of all time. According to the available information, Roger and Garp decided to team up because Xebec was too strong for them. However, the battle has yet to take place on screen, so there are many gaps to fill.

It will be interesting to learn the reason behind Roger and Garp teaming up, especially since they were rivals. Unless Xebec actively threatened them, the two would never have decided to gang up on him. It's also possible that the World Government manipulated the facts and that a part of Sengoku's statement was untrue.

While Xebec's defeat may be the highlight of the God Valley Incident, there are still other details that fans need to know. For starters, they want to know how Garling learned about the members of the Davy clan. Oda also needs to reveal why the Davy clan was nearly annihilated and who Davy D. Jones was. It is highly probable that Davy D. Jones and the entire Davy clan fought against the World Government many centuries ago. Since the World Government won the war, the Davy clan and its allies were hunted down.

Once the flashback ends, the story will return to Elbaf, where Imu has taken over Gunko's body and is running amok. They have already used magic to turn Dorry and Brogy into demons. The two were originally fighting against the Holy Knights, but now they're completely loyal to Imu. The situation in Elbaf is dire, so Luffy and his allies need to put their foot on the gas and start helping the residents. If they don't, then Elbaf will be destroyed.
