One Piece Chapter 1166: Release date and everything we need to know

Fans who wanted to know what was going to happen in One Piece Chapter 1166 had to wait for a while as the manga was on a short break. But now the break week is over, and we might finally get to see how Eiichiro Oda decided to end the iconic God Valley Incident plotline. Since this story started, readers have gone through a series of emotions as a lot of lore has finally been revealed.

Now with Rock's fate hanging by a thread, fans believe that One Piece Chapter 1166 is shaping up to be one of the last huge peaks of the flashback. According to the official sources, it is confirmed that One Piece Chapter 1166 is going to be released on November 23, 2025. Those who want to read the manga can get access to it on digital platforms like Shueisha Manga Plus and Viz Media.

Recap of Chapter 1165

The title of this chapter was Reverberations, and it was praised by fans because of how Eiichiro Oda captured raw emotions and delivered a big twist in the end. In this chapter, the focus was on Garp, Roger fighting against Rocks. As we knew that Rocks D. Xebec was under Imu's Domi Reversal, the only way to stop this demonically transformed character, who has almost no control over himself, was to be killed. While he went on a crazy rampage, we would see that Rocks had a tearful expression. This one panel made it clear that he does not want this to happen.

Meanwhile, Imu had taken over Saturn's body and given an order to erase the whole God Valley Island altogether. Fans absolutely loved the panels where the fight between Roger and Garp versus Rocks took place. Both of these legends are shown to unleash their Superme King Haki, and that allowed them to go head to head with their opponent. Anyone else would have had no chance against the demonized Rocks. Even after unleashing such strong attacks, Rocks matched them with his own Conqueror’s Haki coating, canceling out their blows and pushing the island to total collapse. Meanwhile, the chaotic fallout around God Valley intensified:

• The Rocks Pirates disbanded on the spot, with Shiki and others fleeing.
• Linlin and Kaido split, cementing the first sparks of their lifelong rivalry.
• Whitebeard met Polo Gram, heavily implied to be Marco’s father.
• Young Dragon went rogue, threatening to execute his own Marines unless they rescued civilians.
• Imu ordered CP6 and G-11 to erase all records of God Valley, effectively wiping the island from history.

This chapter came to an end when Roger and Garp are getting ready to launch an attack while acknowledging they couldn’t beat Rocks in a war of attrition.

What to expect from One Piece Chapter 1166? (Speculative)

Trending

Based on how the previous chapter ended, it seems like One Piece Chapter 1166 will almost certainly show the end of the Rocks D. Xebec era, and possibly the conclusion of the God Valley flashback. The combined Conqueror’s attack from Garp and Roger seemingly blew Rocks apart. This means that One Piece Chapter 1166 may confirm whether he dies here and, fittingly for a man with a “D,” fans believe he’ll die with a smile. If Oda follows the classic D-symbolism, this prediction feels extremely likely.

For now, the biggest unanswered question is whether Uranus destroys God Valley, or whether the government simply erases all records. One Piece Chapter 1166 could finally answer why the island vanished from maps and why even Sengoku thought it had been wiped out. In the end, whether Rocks truly dies, whether God Valley is destroyed, and how the survivors escape, all eyes are on this chapter.
