One Piece: Exploring Queen as the ‘potential’ father of Franky

The most recent One Piece Vivre card revealed details about Scien (also known as Queen), one of the All-Stars of the Beast Pirates. The information pertained to the Beast Pirates’ voyage through the Grand Line.

The Vivre Card reveals that 39 years ago, Scien was a member of MADS, an illegal organization that consisted of the most intelligent individuals from the Grand Line. Notable figures such as Dr Vegapunk, Ceaser Clown, Vinsmoke Judge, and others were among its members.

After three additional years, Scien was chosen by Kaidou for a position, but was not given full membership due to his affiliation with MADS. Four years later, Scien decided to depart from MADS, despite having been recruited by Kaido.

Three years after Scien’s departure from MADS, the World Government discovered the illegal research being conducted at the facility and apprehended its members. As a result, the project was shut down. Around the same time, the Vivre card revealed that Scien had abandoned his son and joined the Beast Pirates, becoming one of their All-Stars under the new name ‘Queen.’

According to the Vivre Card, Queen was born 36 years ago, which coincided with the birth of Franky, the shipwright of the Straw Hat Pirates. However, at the age of ten, Franky’s parents abandoned him by throwing him into the sea. Fortunately, he was rescued by the renowned shipwright Tom.

Similarly, it is worth noting that Queen’s son was also abandoned 10 years after his birth, coinciding with the timeline of Franky’s own abandonment. This evidence, as revealed in the latest One Piece Vivre card, suggests that Franky may indeed be Queen’s biological child.

Final thoughts

Although the online storm insists that Franky is Queen’s son, there are strong reasons to believe that Edward Weevil could actually be her son. Firstly, he bears a striking resemblance to Queen, with similar hair color and appearance.

Furthermore, Queen encountered Buckingham Stussy, the mother of Edward Weevil, while working on the MADS project. As a result, it is possible that Edward Weevil may be a more suitable candidate as Queen’s son compared to Franky. However, it is important to consider this information with caution.
