The God’s Knight

In the recent Manga Chapter 1054, there have been some shadowy figures known as God’s Knight. They are affiliated with the Gorosei and the World Government in some form or shape.

In the image, we can see 9 God’s Knights and the front one looks quite similar to Shanks. It could be that he is a member or it could also be that it is a clone or a twin.

So, this quite makes a lot of sense that Shanks is a member of the World Government or Marine in a hidden form or shape.
