🔥 One Piece Chapter 1162 is almost here! The God Valley flashback has quickly become one of the most pivotal storylines in One Piece, offering long-awaited answers about the past while setting up emotional and action-packed moments that could reshape the series’ future. With Chapter 1162 on the horizon, fan speculation is at an all-time high. From tragic character fates to high-stakes confrontations and game-changing lore reveals, the next installment promises to be a major turning point in Eiichiro Oda’s epic saga. A major focus of upcoming events is expected to center on Saint Garling Figarland, the enigmatic leader of the God Knights. Since last appearing to rally his forces, Garling has been notably absent amid the ongoing chaos. Fans believe Chapter 1162 will finally reveal his next move possibly continuing his hunt for high-value targets or pursuing a more personal objective that could redefine his character and motives. His actions could also serve as a catalyst for several key plot developments still to come. One of the most anticipated moments involves Rocks D. Xebec and his long-lost wife, Aerys. Given how quickly Ifley was able to locate Shaki, it seems inevitable that Rocks will find Aerys in the heat of battle. However, their reunion may not lead to a happy ending. Many fan theories suggest that Aerys will not survive the God Valley conflict, with her death potentially serving as the emotional spark behind Rocks’ violent rampage. Such a moment could be among the flashback’s most heartbreaking scenes, potentially rivaling some of One Piece’s most memorable tragedies. Another prediction revolves around Gol D. Roger and Monkey D. Garp, two figures whose legendary rivalry has shaped much of the series’ history. While canon confirms Roger’s involvement at God Valley, many theorists believe Garp will actively force Roger to stay and fight rather than leave the battlefield. This confrontation could offer a deeper look into their relationship, showcasing their clashing ideals and mutual respect in a way that enriches their shared legacy. Smer, previously believed to be out of commission due to severe injuries, may also return to the fray. His comeback, even in a weakened state, could shed light on the God Knights’ mysterious regenerative powers and hint that Conqueror’s Haki might be the key to overcoming them. This revelation could significantly influence battle strategies not just in the flashback, but potentially in the present-day storyline as well. Another intriguing theory suggests that more repeated Devil Fruits could emerge as the arc progresses. Following Captain John’s fruit reveal, fans suspect that characters like Barbell or other God Knights might wield familiar abilities, supporting the idea that Devil Fruits reincarnate after their users die. This cyclical nature of powers already exemplified by Ace inheriting the Flame-Flame Fruit adds a compelling layer to the series’ lore and could tie directly into the long-teased treasure chests at God Valley. Many expect those chests to finally be opened in Chapter 1162, possibly granting new powers to unexpected characters. A clash between Garling and Whitebeard is also one of the most highly anticipated possibilities. With Whitebeard no longer engaged in battle against Roger, Garling appears to be the most likely opponent. Such a fight would not only elevate Garling’s status as a major threat but also provide a deeper look into the God Knights’ true strength. Some fans even speculate that Garling’s striking resemblance to Shanks may hint at a deeper connection that could be explored through this confrontation. While the death of a God Knight seems inevitable, many believe it may still be too soon for such a development. Their regenerative powers make them difficult to kill, but the groundwork is being laid for at least one to fall before the arc concludes. This eventual loss could mark a turning point in the balance of power, signaling the decline of the once-unstoppable God Knights. Overall, the predictions for Chapter 1162 suggest a story that blends high-stakes action with emotional weight and deep world-building. Garling’s next move could reshape the conflict, Rocks and Aerys’ storyline may deliver a devastating emotional blow, and the long-awaited reveal of the Devil Fruit treasure chests could redefine the mechanics of power in One Piece. The God Valley flashback continues to answer long-standing mysteries while raising new questions about the series’ history and Chapter 1162 may be the chapter that changes everything.

Aki Hayakawa

Aki Hayakawa was a Public Safety Devil Hunter, working under Makima's special squad. He had contracts with the Curse Devil and Future Devil, and a former contract with the Fox Devil. He was killed and possessed by 20% of the Gun Devil, thus becoming the host of the Gun Fiend. He was a deuteragonist of the Public Safety Saga. ki generally appears to be a very stoic person. He acts mature and sometimes blunt to the point of rudeness when he is with his fellow Devil Hunters, but he is actually fairly softhearted. He has a tendency to get attached to others easily, and hates to see people get hurt, especially his close friends. Unlike many of his associates, he is described by Himeno as being a "normal person", in the sense that he still grieves for those lost and has not become jaded enough to close his feelings off. Despite this, he is very determined and his primary motivation for killing the Gun Devil is revenge for his family.

 

Aki Hayakawa

He is, however, entirely willing to put his own life on the line to save other people despite his own fear of death and even at risk to his ultimate goal. He doesn't like people who does not take their job as Devil Hunters seriously or fight for a superficial and material goal like money or, in Denji's case, to be able to touch some boobs, being this one the primary reason he and Denji, initially, didn't get along. Aki is also ruthless, stating that he always makes sure the devils he kills suffer in order to give them a slow and painful death. He can become intimidating with those he still doesn't trust enough, like when he threatened Denji by telling him that if he either betrays them or side with other devils, he would kill him without any hesitation. His air of cold detachment is a facade, and he has been seen to cry over the deaths of his comrades such as Himeno, and he grew to care for Denji and Power enough to try and forfeit his revenge goal in order to keep them safe. Aki also is capable of being afraid to lose those he deeply cares about. He told Kishibe that reason of why he wanted to leave the mission of killing the Gun Devil is because the future he saw with the power of the Future Devil, with Denji and Power suffering a painful and terrible death, and he was scared of that future. At first, Aki is seen to despise devils equally, not caring if they are hybrids, fiends or if they are evil by nature, to him all devils are the same. He sees them as nothing more than tools they can replace at any time. However over the course of the story Aki slowly begins to bond with some of his partners, best example (outside of Denji and Power) is his relationship with the Angel Devil.

Devil Contracts

    Curse Devil Contract: Aki has a contract with the Curse Devil which grants him a nail-like sword. In order for the contract to work properly, Aki must point the nail anywhere on his target's body; then saying the word "fire", the hand of the curse devil will appear and flicks the back end of the nail to inflict damage. By stabbing his enemy three times with the nail, Aki can summon the Curse Devil to seize the enemy and inflict massive damage upon them, potentially killing them in the process. In order to use it, Aki's life would be significantly shortened.


    Fox Devil Contract: Aki Hayakawa had a contract with the Fox Devil. In exchange for feeding him a part of his body, Aki could enlist his power in combat. In exchange for feeding him part of his body, Aki could use his power in combat by raising a hand and saying the word "Kon" (コン?), causing the Fox Devil's head to appear to instantly bite down on the target's body, swallowing him whole or tearing him apart. Aki lost the ability to summon him after he used the Fox Devil recklessly against the Katana Man.

        Precognition: Aki has the ability to see a few seconds into the future. He uses this to predict his opponent's oncoming attacks and plan accordingly.


        Summoning: Due to his contract, Aki can summon Future Devil by calling him. While the devil says that Aki must say "The Future Rules" to make him come, this is not an actual requirement.

Even after giving up his dream of killing the Gun Devil to protect his friends, he was still more than willing to make any contract to protect them.
