[@primesonic4459]

She never ever mentions it. Not even once. She openly admits shes a time traveler so why hide she has the Nika fruit

[@anjarsinatra]

Ngl that's the best theory

[@LathropLdST]

​@@primesonic4459why do you base your argument on such a weak premise? One thing is to travel, another is to bring a fruit that has the potential to turn the world upside down. Oden knew not to open the country yet, and about the 20 years too early. Both were transparent yo a fault, but it's not a stretch that she told him something we are not privy about.

[@brond.8009]

One thing in the series that always made me laugh was how stupid coincidences just happen to work out for the best. Kinemon getting the signal wrong saved the raid on onigashima. What if the laugh tale of joyboy is a coincidence or a series of unfortunate events that get interpreted wrong, luke God Ussopp or Buggy falling into success

[@86Fallowcp]

I hope so, both of those example are genuinely hilarious and could make some sense later down the line, I also had a similar theory not long ago

[@eanternet]

Maybe that's why it's called the Laugh Tale

[@Lykon]

funny how Artur refused to accept that Nika and Joyboy were different entities for years (despite everyone telling him) and now "let me explain how they are 2 separate entities because it's complicated". Spoiler: it's not complicated. Joyboy was exactly like Luffy: a person who ate the Gomu Gomu.

[@nathleflutiste]

Well, I wonder if the devil fruit weren't created during the void century.

[@Lok_N]

So Nika was part of a super hero team, sun god, rain god, forest god n earth god.... I wonder what the name of their story was....

[@Seawalls]

I think the original door to Wano is underwater. Zuneshas part in “opening the borders of Wano” is to suck the water out to expose the door. There’s a wall around Wano after all and that seems to be the least destructive option

[@Raja-bz4yw]

I think franky still knows how to make pluton. He more than likely studied the blueprints n remembered it.

My theory is that someone used the co-op fruit to make lilly immortal. They must have loved her to make her immortal. Emu stole her immortal body

[@kitruck2]

Genial vídeo, Artur, pero se te han olvidado varios que me gustaría recordarte: - El primero lo mencionas de pasada, Law, sabemos que es un D, por lo tanto una de las familias debería ser la familia Trafalgar/Water. Y luego tres más que son importantísimos e imprescindibles para la trama, los 4 dioses de One Piece (Skypiea). Sabemos que el primero es el Sol, es decir, Nika/Luffy, y nos faltan por saber quienes son los dioses de: la lluvia, el bosque y la tierra. - La lluvia creo que lo lógico es pensar que es Dragon, porque en las apariciones que le hemos visto parecía controlar el clima de alguna manera, generando viento, lluvia, etc. - El bosque la única conexión posible que tenemos hasta ahora es Ryokugyu, pero no tengo ni idea de por donde enlazar su fruta para que encaje. - Y la tierra podría ser cualquiera entre Barbanegra e Imu. No sabemos nada del segundo, pero gobierna sobre el trozo de roca (seguramente artificial) más grande del mundo. Y del primero qué decir, la fruta de los terremotos (tierra) y de los agujeros negros (gravedad, planetas). O incluso tener alguna relación la fruta Zushi Zushi de Issho. Un saludo crack.

[@ChildrenOfBodom813]

I think one of the greatest things about this series is that even people who don’t know anything about it, when the One Piece is revealed; so many people will hear and learn about it. In the anime and in real life if you think about it.

[@mathieuleader8601]

I think Saturn knowing that Teach's bloodline is special I believe that Blackbeard's ancestor is St. Donquixote as his shadowy figure and Marshall do look alike.

[@laurentbergeronmusic]

Nika is unlikely to be a void century character. He likely predates it by quite a while.

[@SurgeonOfDepth]

the void centaury flashback is going to be a soap opera

[@justinokoniewski2672]

The iron gaint came to life because they had the next Nika fruit user and they fought and the nika fruit user was knocked out they thought they won. then he was awakened and instantly in danger of life-threatening situation and his heart beat called the iron gaint but they killed him first instead of him winning the fight and going back to base form. So then the drums where gone. The gaint stoped. Hints the apologizes

[@alexandrumoldovan813]

Vander Decken must have also lived during the void century, right? Taking into account that who we saw was Vander Decken IX, the years fit, Oda even told us a little about his story

[@TheLibraryofOhara]

I was considering adding Vander Decken I, but given how he went to Fishman Island by a time Poseidon already became legend, I assumed he may have come sometime after the Void Century. Assuming that Vander Decken did have 8 descendants specifically (unless he had several descendants who didn't take the name), 800 years really wouldn't be enough to fit eight generations. Still possible though, by all means!

[@LawOfOne_Elris]

next arc after egghead is elbaf (blackbeard will be one of the stars in this one). after that is the joyboy flashback arc. then we end one piece with its final arc of ragnarok where the straw hat brigade win against Imu, tear down the red line, abolishes world government, unfloods the planet, unites the seas, rid the ocean of the devil fruit drowning curse imposed by Imu (luffy does this through nika powers), and luffy officially becomes pirate king, or really, a buddha--a true solar deity in human form, metaphorically. epilogue is happily ever after and the strawhats marry and have children. if joyboy arc doesnt happen, then oda may do an entire new series after concluding one piece following joyboy. but thats just a theory...a 1p theory~!

[@kerwe3447]

Ryuma being from the Void century still makes little sense to me given the stories and knowledge about him and where he was buried, which is the new Wano at the top and specifically in Ringo which is said to be his home region, because that's where Moria got his corpse from. During the Void century that Ringo didn't exist yet though. Sukiyaki talks about the under water Wano being from 800 years ago which is already towards the end of the Void century, so for Ryuma to be buried at the top he'd have to be around exactly at the time that change happened. He was only in his 40s when he died, so he would have lived towards the very end of the void century and as there are plenty stories about him it makes little sense that reshaping and rebuilding the country wouldn't be something included in those stories as it would be a fundamental event for Wano. Even the fact that there are plenty of legends about him that are known in the present, would make it odd that he is from the Void century if otherwise information about it is erased. Even the people in Wano know essentially nothing about the Void century but Ryuma is a figure with plenty strories about him.

[@bryannkam]

I’m still convinced that the D clan are in actuality members of Joyboy’s crew, and that the D. initial is just their way of signifying their connection to one another. Much like the X marks of the Strawhats from the Alabasta arc. But we won’t know for certain until we see Joyboy and it’s revealed that among his (at least immediate) crew were a Monkey, a Gol, a Jaguar, a Portgas, a Rocks, etc.

[@jabs0907]

I really hope they do a flash back series of this void century it's desperately needed

[@planwithisaac]

wow so engaging and detailed!!

[@brg2376]

i wouldnt be suprised that joyboy is just a nickname same as strawhat, and joyboy being also from the same monkey d bloodline

[@1TakoyakiStore]

I find it intriguing that around the same time Ryuma successfully repelled an invasion by the WG of Wano that Norland was leading the world towards rediscovering itself. I interpret this as after the WG was successfully repelled that Imu decided to change the strategy. They would need help if they were to successfully take Wano and so allowed the world to rediscover forgotten lands in hopes of adding to their ranks. The Gorosei seem to view human numbers as the ultimate advantage of the species. Ryuma likely instilled this idea in them. The strategy changed again 200 years ago when the Iron Giant attacked. This is still all just speculation on my part. But I'm most curious to find out just how Joyboy was defeated yet the Strawhats will win. I suspect it was because Ryuma's will and Joyboy's will did not exist at the same time. Why though I have no idea as it seems weird for good to almost succeed multiple times at various points in history when someone like Luffy shows up and starts hitting home runs every time all of a sudden. Maybe the necessay amount of inherited will needed to be accumulated?

[@FalseDwightScrute]

On laugh tale: there’s a movie theater just like Vegapunks island but way fancier, where you watch a short message from joyboy titled “one piece” showing the adventures of the first pirate, and why freedom brings happiness and oppression brings sadness, all while making us laugh because that’s what nika nika user does, they win your conviction with humor!

Pls. Can you look into Jim Button from the Author Michael Ende? Especially both adaptations from the "Augsburger Puppenkiste". Maybe i want it too much but i see so many paralels to One Piece and no one wants to look into it. Why i think Oda could be influenced by this: German fairy tales were popular when Oda was young. And Jim Button actually got an anime Adaptation around the time Oda was born and aired at the same time as Wickie (another german story that got an anime and btw a heavy influence for the Elbaf giants and Shanks... and somewhat Kaido and his crew design). Also Michael Enda was a popular Author in japan at that time (to be fair... not this work of his because the protagonist is black while the book is not about him being black. It only got more popular with the anime where the protagonist wasn't black anymore)
