i think the world government did a great cleansing worldwide and got rid of everyone, it was mentioned in the past! then no one knew of nika etc. , truly evil stuff, much like people feel tartaria was replaced in real life by mud floods and that the land was built over the previous one, i feel the world government did something similar, thanks for the video morj!

​@ShadowCave590Not really. The character motivations are so different.

One thing I’ve been thinking about. Toki could have sent momo and crew to further into the future when it would have been “safe” after the incoming dawn for seen in 20 years. But both Toki and Oden wanted their people and children to witness and HELP liberate the world. They could have taken the easy way out but instead felt they needed to be there by his side to help out. The fact that the Nika supporters don’t just sit aside and wait for their savior they HELP and work towards achieving those dreams. JoyBoy isn’t there to save them single-handedly. They walk that path with him.

[@elmine7707]

I think it's even that JoyBoy CAN'T single handedly save the world. Time and again in One Piece Luffy NEEDS help from others to achieve his goals, Impel Down is a good example, but there are many more

How tf do Imu and the Gorosei single-handle all these races? 😂 Another mysterious race is the Oni (we only get a glimpse in Yamato and Kaido's fight) with horn and a power of tanky build, I suppose? Other extra organ races (long legs, hands, neck, head, nose 😂) seem like minor races, and I don't think they will play a major role in the series.

Drums of Liberation is a specific rhythm that a professional musician like Brook can use and even enhance with his Devil Fruit. Considering that Kumar might have told her countless stories and prophecies about Nika while she was growing up, she could give the needed hints at what is the most important about the Drums of Liberation and what it will do to the people of the world.

[@Scarftail]

I agree that most people who have used Nika's name in the story so far make sense to know it and that his existence was foreshadowed more subtly through broader sun/dawn/Joy Boy-based legends. I think what I'm mainly puzzled about is the timing; how the last two arcs were the first to feature several characters who fully knew of the legend. It kinda just feels like a necessary consequence of trying to surprise the reader, reminiscent of the numerous story coincidences the Straw Hats found themselves in like stumbling across Momonosuke and Kin'emon or meeting Vegapunk right when he's set to be executed.

[@derrickmiles5240]

I'm thinking the Ancient Kingdom wasn't all sunshine and roses. The Fishmen have a history of slavery, but the troubles with fishmen started only 200 years ago? That's far from their entire history. So we're left to wonder "who's who?". Was the Ancient Kingdom truly who Joyboy fought to liberate? Or did Joyboy fight to end human and Buccaneer slavery at the hands of the stronger races? If he did, then perhaps his crime was going against calls for punitive slavery that came from his own side. He and his Buccaneer kin were enslaved for the stand they took to prevent the cycle of hatred from continuing. They fought their own side and lost. I think Joyboy was too early. Those old wounds had to heal before the dawn could come. I think the fishmen gained immunity by continuing the slave trade under the WG. Jinbe acknowledged the violence of fishmen at Marineford, but we all thought he was referring to Arlong. What if it's not so simple? I believe that 200 years ago, the fishmen broke the deal, releasing the Buccaneers and causing the Iron giant incident. Their knowledge of Joyboy is second hand. They gained that knowledge indirectly though the slaves they oversaw, explaining their vague awareness of a Sun God. The Buccaneers, once freed by the fishmen, located Joyboy's Iron Giant that he had used first to fight the Ancient Kingdom, and second to fight his own side. They began to play the drums of liberation, it then came to life and promptly assaulted Marie Jois. The fishmen freeing the Buccaneers is symbolic of those old wounds healing, setting the stage for the new dawn.

[@GRIM-CYCLONE]

Well, Kaido also knew about Sun God Nika and he was of Oni race. So there's some chances that the Onis also knew about Nika. Kaido and Yamato are the only two onis we have seen. Therefore, we can conclude that the Onis were also erased by the World Government since they knew about the Sun God. Okay guys, some corrections - Kaido didn't know about Nika but Joyboy. They are not the only Onis we have seen. Magellan was also a potential Oni, and there is a potential Oni in BB's crew too. Forgot his name.

No oni joyboy candidate kaido or ancient giant Oars with strawhats an luffy possessed with joyboy nika moves

[@AksharaAbigail-hh1yr]

Every race's connection to 'Nika' 💀

[@lebronwade4181]

In NIKA we trust 2024 😂🤑

[@Quavon9786]

The only thing that confuses me about Nika is that nobody at all said his name in the impel down arc. Just the whisper back then would’ve had the fanbase dying for years

[@RelajacionBoriquen]

Reality = Fiction Fiction = Reality

[@pitoseavy4523]

Kuma is the only one to say everything about nika even about him giving freedom/liberation etc...even rubber powers/can do anything he imagine etc...even said he believes luffy is the one so i doubt oda will have another race know that much about nika outside the gorosei if someone knows i hope it's about joyboy like the fisherman/minks/wano/lunarians etc....only the buccaneers/giants ever said sun god

[@johnmurphy2125]

Not sure how many people share this opinion already, but I believe that Pudding’s fruit was likely used to erase people’s memory of the sun god Nika

[@ajaystephen869]

Saturn’s raid is gonna fail

[@wompus_king]

The WG just said “nuh-uh” a lot until people stopped believing in Nika.

[@KaiTheCheetah]

Why do you keep deleting ur chapter videos 😔😭

[@nikolasmoret1884]

Bc it was fucking retconned it wasnt foreshadowed it was shoehorned into the story

[@clarkkentwithglasses4759]

Personally speaking..a savior..one "true" lord narrative is something of a pass for me.I do think the story will diverge.If not,i think the story turned out to be something i wasn't expecting.A bunch of rag tag group of guys on an adventure with a purpose emerging. It also reduces the people who came before and other devil fruits.from whitebeard literally destroying marine head quarters to whales that kept banging on the walls with their heads.

[@Sernival]

Whitebeard gave a 2nd wind to the great pirate era, all these guys have sacrificed to preserve their hope that they'll be ready to overthrow the gov't, like Kuma and Dragon.

[@andretraore1934]

It’s true that Jim didn’t react to Lupe’s gear five but I think the freshman might know something about nika because when who’s who brought it up in their fight Jimbei got extremely angry and beat the shit out of bro low-key😭

[@therealhydropx]

Luffy doesn't want to be a hero. What makes anyone think he wants to be a God?

[@RaffDGoat]

No one is saying Luffy wants to be a God

[@therealhydropx]

@@RaffDGoat " no one" because two giants didnt come for their god.

[@PhilippeSaner]

I don't think he gets a choice. Look at how the Grand Fleet joined him.

[@immersion6105]

sure, he doesn't want to be a hero but the fact of the matter is that he always ends up being one for every island he visits

[@prof1185]

What Luffy wants or doesnt want is completely irrelevant, he is sun God Nika, wether he likes it or not

[@FencingMessiah]

Morj is odas hardest working lawyer trying to justify badly written retcons

[@TheLegend-hf7pc]

The true mystery is the prisoner who told whos who about nika, who are they? How do they know about nika?

[@omanjackson17]

What about Kaido race?

[@bachenzo421]

Luffy x Nami at the end GGWP :)

[@508ctk]

One Piece is beautiful.

[@mssa1912]

Did Roger even know Nika?
