One Piece is surrounded by numerous theories regarding various plot points. Recently, a user on X, named @3SkullJoe, proposed a theory about Luffy’s role as the Warrior of Liberation and how it may have been affected by the Nika Fruit and Dr. Vegapunk’s message. It has been confirmed that Vegapunk shared the story of Joy Boy with the public, but the way it was presented could have portrayed him as a villain to the general population.
In the past, a similar situation occurred in the world of One Piece involving Noland The Liar and his journey to the ‘Golden City of Shandora’. As a result, it is plausible that Vegapunk, possibly without his knowledge, concluded that Joy Boy was the antagonist defeated by the World Government, creating a complex situation for Luffy and his companions.
Please note: This article may reveal key plot points for the series.
Dr. Vegapunk’s Impact on Luffy’s Character in One Piece
Dr. Vegapunk’s recent statement regarding the World Government and the potential threat of land sinkings shed light on various aspects of current events. However, his interpretation of Joy Boy’s role may have negatively impacted Luffy’s reputation, as explained in the popular theory on X. While fans of the series are aware that the Nika Fruit belongs to the Warrior of Liberation, who seeks to liberate innocent individuals, this information may not be common knowledge among the general public.
In Vegapunk’s message, he portrays Joy Boy, the former wielder of the Nika Fruit, as a morally ambiguous figure instead of the freedom fighter he was. This revelation could potentially sway public opinion in favor of the World Government, similar to what happened with the character Noland who was labeled a “liar”due to the events surrounding the Golden City of Shandora.
Morgan’s intention to stoke people’s fears through Big News could have a significant impact, especially since there are groups like the Buccaneers and the Giants who idolize Nika. This could lead to many using Vegapunk’s message to discredit the Warrior of Liberation, creating a more complex predicament for the protagonist.
The role of Joy Boy and Nika in the story
Despite the lack of information about them, it is undeniable that Nika and Joy Boy hold significant roles in the One Piece universe. In fact, their limited history has caused confusion among fans, leading many to believe they were the same character. Nika possesses the power of a Devil Fruit while Joy Boy was the initial user of this power, earning him the title of “the first pirate”given by Vegapunk.
While there are still many unanswered questions about how Joy Boy was defeated by Imu during the Void Century and the subsequent rise of the World Government, these two figures play crucial roles in these historical events. It is likely that author Eiichiro Oda will eventually address this mystery in the manga.
Concluding Remarks
It is highly likely that the message from Dr. Vegapunk will show Luffy as a villain in the eyes of the One Piece universe. However, this is currently just speculation and has not yet been depicted in the manga.
