In the world ofOne Piece,it is always assumed that the crew of the Straw Hat Pirates is one of the strongest ones to ever exist, who can take down any tyrant or unjust ruler. However, they have forgotten that before the fan favorite even existed, there was a crew that consisted of some of the most notorious names in the franchise, all working under the same Jolly Roger.
The Rocks Pirates were one of the strongest pirate crews; though they are not active anymore, their name alone is enough to make one shiver in fear. The crew itself featured three out of four future Yonkos of the Sea, and their influence had greatly affected the oceans.
Interestingly, these three names have often been synonymous with traitors because it is heavily believed that these three names had betrayed Rocks D. Xebec at the God Valley. However, in a new theory, three new names have surfaced that are believed to be real culprits behind the fall of the pirate crew.
One PieceTheory Explains Why Kaido, Big Mom, and Whitebeard Were Loyal to The Rocks Pirates
InEiichiro Oda’sOne Piecebefore Monkey D. Luffy set sail into the ocean, there was a crew that heavily influenced the oceans but also the story of the manga as well. Rocks D. Xebec’s The Rocks Pirates comprised some of the strongest names of its generations that shattered the balance in theOPVerse.
The crew comprised 14 members who would not spare anyone interrupting their goals. To stop them,Monkey D. Garpand Gol D. Roger joined hands to stop the notorious crew members at the God Valley. However, the strongest crew in the world getting defeated by just two people sounds off.

As a result, a fan (@3SkullJoe) came up with their own theory, where they ruled out Kaido, Big Mom, and Whitebeard as the traitors in the crew. They stated that Edward Newgate could never be the traitor because his core values were“never betray or kill their crew mates.”
Likewise, Big Mom also has a strong sense of honor, despite being adamant about becoming the next Pirate King. Moreover, she saved Kaido after his defeat and was the only one to look after him when he was captured and imprisoned at Punk Hazard.

Since the King of the Beasts was imprisoned, he was automatically ruled out as the traitor. This brings us to the next intriguing part of the theory that states the three potential names, who sold out their nakamas to fuel their personal ambitions.

In the same theory, the fan emphasized that this brings the line of suspicion to“Stussy.”Assuming the real character had the same abilities as her, it is highly likely that she would sell out her crewmate.
Additionally, her Devil Fruit power explains how easily she could have incapacitated Kaido in stealth so that she could be a member of MADS. The fans continue to be Sherlock Holmes, as they mention the next hint, which points the fingers at Ochoku.
In chapter 987, Kaido’s words imply that some crew members fled“before the battle was over.”This can’t be a coincidence because not only did the pirate survive but also claimed the Pirate Island for himself. Lastly, the greed of one of the crew members of The Rocks Pirates compelled them to stab the crew members in the back.

The theory stated that long before fans learned that one of the members of the notorious crew possessed a“great treasure.”This puts Captain John on the list as well because it is likely that the treasures he boasts of were the ones he took from God Valley.
To further reinforce the idea, Buggy the Clown has been after this treasure for ages, and he believes that“it was located on an island shaped like a skull.” It can be assumed that the island could be Hachinosu, where he fled from the battle alongside his friend, Ochoku.

The fan concluded that, deducing from these hints in the series, it is very likely that these three pirates pulled the strings from behind the scenes to fulfill their ambitions and betray the crew that held the power to rule the world.
