So Imu can force a demonic contract on someone that means Shanks might have had a contract contract forced on him and when he let the king of the sea his arm he escaped Imu

@thatandthis The Sea King or Sea Beast (since it was small and weak) in the East Blue which ate Shank's arm.
I think he means Shank's may have had a contract on him with Emu, but sacrificed his arm to the beast to remove that contract... Kinda out there but not that crazy...
Still if that was really the case... Pretty sure Shanks could have found a different way to remove it or at the very least removed it long before meeting Luffy?

@Lazarus Lucifer
Yeah but before meeting Luffy and before Luffy ate the "gomu gomu no mi" Shanks had no reason to remove the contract because Roger was dead, Roger's son Ace was hidden by Garp and Shanks knew there is gonna be a great flood that will engulf the world so he might've accepted Imu's "gift" of immortality and some extra power after all we know Shanks returned to the "Holy Land" in the past but chose to go back at sea.
When Luffy ate the devil fruit, Shanks saw how free spirited he is which it reminded him of Roger (plus the fact that Luffy is a member of the D "clan"), Shanks by his own words "put a bet" on the next generation.
The bet might have been on Luffy awakening the hito hito no mi model nika, that's why he have up the contract and hope that Luffy was the next comming of nika, he had to give up the contract to not be summoned by Imu and forced to kill Luffy once he awakened the devil fruit
@Shiro Kami Certainly plausible... lol it is sounding pretty interesting, though it really depends on the explaination of how G0d Knight and Imu's powers/abilities and such work.
@Shiro Kami I don't think shanks returned to the "holy land", cause if shanks went to meet the five elders, right, would the five elders rlly let shanks go bck unharmed eventhough he walked right into their lair? So i think that was shanks' brother instead. and also shanks' scar was missing
@kyjam read chapter 1138 I was talking about what Shank's brother, Shamrock said. Shanks once came back to the holy land but chose to stay a pirate because he fell in love with the normal world
