The good Valley incident happened 38 years ago, and the Rocks Pirates, Roger Pirates, Marines, The Holy Knights and A Godhead. With so many big names gathering in the same place, it is obvious that they would cause a massive incident. The stones Pirates went to God Valley to find the treasures in Celestial Dragons. Ginny leaked the information about the prices to everyone outside the island, which attracted the Pirates' interest from all over the world.

Rocks Pirates was looking to get stronger, and eating elite devil fruits was the easiest way to do it. Big MOM was the first member of the crew to reach the devil's fruits, but she could only save UO UO No MI, model: Seiryu, which was later given to Kaido. The news of Rock's Pirate's arrival is spread like wildfire, but it was not enough to attract Monkey D. Garp attention. In fact, Garp refused to take action until Kong told him that Roger was on the island.

Roger and Garp collaborated to beat The Rocks Pirates

Garp went to good Valley with the aim of fighting against Roger, but he had changed plans. Never in a million years would Garp dreamed that he would have to merge with his biggest rival to take down Rocks D. Xebec. Garp's alliance with Roger was solely to end Rock's dominance government, so it ended immediately after they performed the task.

After the rocks of Rocks Pirates, Garp's fame was spread around the world. The World Government covered Roger's commitment, which made Garp the hero of the entire incident. While Garps Heroic's deserved praise, there was another person whose actions went unnoticed.

Bartholomew Kuma was the hero in the good Valley incident

He saves countless lives with his power

Kuma saved over 500 lives with her devil fruit
He also went off the island successfully

Bartholomew Kuma was present at God Valley when Rocks Pirates attacked. He was there as a slave cum exchange for the domestic hunting competition. Kuma was intended to die on the island, but he still had some struggle left in him. He used his strength to escape his cell and almost left the island. Unfortunately, Kuma was abused by other slaves who wanted to live. Celestial Dragons fed them lies and made them think they would live if Kuma was brought back.

In all this chaos you saved over 500 lives. —Ivankov to Kuma

But Ivankov and Ginny told them that no one survived the hunting competition. Although the odds were stacked against them, Ivankov was hopeful that they could still come from the island. To improve their chances of survival, Ivankov knew that they had to find the devil. Kuma decided to try the plan and went with Ivankov to secure the devil's fruits. After searching for a while, they found Nikyu Nikyu No Mi and UO UO NO MI, Model: Seiryu. The latter was taken by Ivankov, while Kuma took Nikyu Nikyu No Mi.

Just as Ivankov was about to eat the devil fruit, Big Mom stopped him and took it from his hands. In fear that the big mom would steal Nikyu Nikyu No Mi as well, Ivankov told Kuma to run and eat the devil fruit. Kuma was guilty and got the power of the devil fruit. With Nikyu Nikyu No Mi, Kuma saved more than 500 people who were also in good Valley. If he had not used his newfound strength, they would probably have been killed by Celestial Dragons for their pleasure. It is unfortunate that most people in a bit world will never learn the truth about Kuma and how he alone saved so many lives.
