The manga confirmed his ulterior motives a while back, but they were lost in translation. Even though the layers of mysteries in One Piece are finally beginning to unravel in the Egghead Arc, there\u2019s still so much we don\u2019t know yet. This is especially true when it comes to Shanks, one of the most important characters in the series. Shanks was introduced in the East Blue Saga but rarely appears in the story. When we do see him, it\u2019s always a big moment. The legendary One Piece treasure is something the entire world wants, including Shanks, as confirmed in Chapter 1054. As soon as Shanks sees Luffy\u2019s new wanted poster, he tells Beck that it\u2019s about time they make their move and claim the One Piece. However, an important detail in this scene was lost in translation. What was Shanks implying in One Piece Chapter 1056? According to a Japanese native speaker on Twitter\/X, \u201cThe kanji in that scene is used for \u201ctake by force\u201d (\u596a\u3046), suggesting that Shanks plans to steal One Piece from its legitimate possessor. He likely knows who the true owner of One Piece is, which is why he chose this wording.\u201d The chapter also implies that Shanks had been waiting until Luffy awakened his devil fruit before actually making a move. He also met with Gorosei and talked about a certain pirate, which is even more bizarre considering he stole Luffy\u2019s devil fruit from them. This eventually leads Luffy to mistakenly eat the devil fruit and gain the same powers as Joyboy. As a Yonko, Shanks\u2019 appearance in a small village in East Blue was already out of the ordinary. However, things were meant to play out that way, regardless of whether that was intentional or not. Additionally, in Oden\u2019s flashback, Roger tells Shanks something that has yet to be revealed. Much about Shanks confirms that his goal has never been simple from day one. Furthermore, it\u2019s unclear whether his desire to take the treasure by force is selfish. Shanks has never shown any indications of being an evil character, but he\u2019s a pirate nonetheless. Oda\u2019s got room to put some real twists and turns into the story with Shanks\u2019 character. For more Straw Hats shenanigans, look at the One Piece Chapter 1117 release date and spoilers.
