Who is Shanks's true identity?

 Despite his infrequent appearances, each time Shanks shows up, we come to realize that he is a more remarkable figure than we had previously thought, leaving behind new mysteries.

In Episode 907, Shanks visits the Holy Land Mary Geoise and meets with the Five Elders in the "Room of Authority" within Pangaea Castle. No matter how powerful a pirate may be, this seems quite improbable. What could this possibly mean?

It's plausible to speculate that he is more than just a mere pirate; he might hold a position surpassing even that of a Celestial Dragon.

Anticipation builds for the day when Shanks' true identity will be revealed. However, the face of the person who met with the Five Elders was not clearly depicted in its entirety. As a result, there's a theory that the person might be someone other than Shanks."
