What if Oda calling Davy a no good pirate is some 4d chess move where the government is the one propagating the idea that Davy was selfish but in reality he was a cool guy who just opposed them
Oda’s always been a fan of name schemes in his story so I’m guessing it’s 1. Monkey D.rum (Monkey Drum is a real type of Drum) 2. Gol D.rum (Gold drum or gold drum and bugle course) 3. Trafalgar D.rum water law (Trafalgar drummers during waterlew) 4. Marshall D.rum (Marshall Drum, like military/war drum music) 5. Rocks D.rum (rock drum) 6. Portgas D.rum (Portuguese drum adufe) 7. Nefertarti D.rum (Nefertiti drum album by miles Davis) 8. Jaguar D.rum ( Mayan jaguar drum) I’m guessing they were the drum pirates EDIT: my bad guys I meant to spell MARSHALL as MARTIAL DRUM (like military drum)
Thanks for giving some actual context and reasoning for your theory. I clicked this video thinking it would have that but it's just bait.

If we’re working with the hypothetical that Law is the traitor to the D. clan I feel like his name being *Law* is worth noting too, since in a sense laws and freedom don’t mix.
Davey jones theory connects perfectly with the theory of Blackbeard’s ability to have multiple DF by storing him in himself AKA Davey jones locker because he had Davey jones will.
Its just a sideways smiley face, joyboy is probably a dingy goofball like luffy and drew his own jolly roger but never changed it. All his crewmates were the "D" pirates and their descendants are "D" clan members. The traitor in the D clan must have been someone who betrayed joyboy and that is the ancestor of the blackbeards and rocks. Im guessing that is imu who betrayed joyboy, he wanted to take control of the whole world and succeeded. He is the secret king of the government, rocks wanted to rule the world just like imu, and it seems blackbeard wants to do the same. So im guessing imu is the great ancestor of rocks and blackbeard
Nice i was thinking more of a death or dust cause onepiece is a dust. Representing the grave which we all (usually) be at the end. Dust and bones. But i like yours so much :D
I admire the commitment of theorists to the reincorporation of the Davy Back fight. Seriously, the theories built around its reintroduction are wonderful and always worth a good laugh. That being said, I can't stress enough how little I want to read another Davy Back fight and pray that it was just a one-off after Skypiea. Still, if Oda cooks then I will eat.
Funny enough going along what you said at 24:00 that could also explain why Bonney can use a nika form maybe there’s multiple ways for joyboy to reincarnate so to say. In other words the Imu vs Joyboy fight is inevitable
I was legitimately thinking about this before I saw your videos, I love the connection towards the smile especially remembering Doflamingo’s jolly roger and how corazon jumped into action when Law stated his name with the initial D.
Davy Jones could be Joy Boy real name, before he was able to transforms into Nika. We know that Joy Boy is not Nika from Vegapunk, thefore, he probbaly had consumed the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, or got those powers in an unknown way, aditionally, Nika form is only mentioned as Joy Boy whenever Luffy enters gear 5. So i think it is safe to assume that Joy Boy had a non-Nika form. Also, the Davy Fight Back can be seen as stealing someone's crew, but it can also be seen as freeying someone from somenone's crew.
The past weeks I've been re reading the manga and came to the same conclusion it might be davy jones. I think another big hint is in the sbs of chapter 516, the reader asks if kuma is holding volume 12, or 13 of the manga. Oda his answer is that it might be 33 and he is reading the story of the davy back fight and laughing to himself. Or 25 in which he debuted. He finishes with saying he doesn't know lets all take a guess.
D is for Dawn, those that are destined to bring a new dawn to the world. Since Luffy has the sun god fruit that makes a lot more sense. The government didn't want a member of the clan of D. to get the nika fruit because it would mean that the new dawn would be inevitable. Maybe black beard has the will of dusk with his darkness fruit?
@jackkelley5975 there was a judas in joyboys crew which is why he might have lost the war that is why every generation of the D clan will have someone evil like Rocks and now Blackbeard
Honestly I think the D stand for Dawn. I know this has been tossed around multiple times but thinking about it more and more makes so much sense. First off, a new dawn is what Joyboy/Luffy is suppose to achieve at the end of the story almost freeing the world of its shackles by the WG we can all agree on that. But I think theres more too it. I think Joyboys pirate crew were named something like "The Dawn Pirates". Why? Well we know that Joyboy and Nika are two different people now. Nika freed people using his sun powers and lit up the sky like it was a new sun dawn. What if Joyboy knew about this and used his powers to do the same thing in the other 20 kingdoms where people were oppressed. This would mean the Void Century wasn't a perfect utopia but it makes so much sense why the WG would want to hide it because it started a revolution that showed the 20 kingdoms (now the WG) there true colours. So what Joyboys crew would do is basically what Luffy crew does which is freeing the oppressed. Almost making a new dawn for them like Nika. This would explain why people call it the Will Of D aka the Will of The Dawn Pirates which was to free the oppressed. Joyboy made all of his crewmates put the D intial in there name just like how the Strawhats and Vivi did in Alabasta to show who was on what side, like hiding in plain site to make the will live on so that 800 years from then the new Joyboy (aka Luffy) will know what to do, how to do it and who to help him along in that journey. I'm sure I'm probably missing something but I think this is a solid theory.
i think something that we need to take into account when discussing the will of D is that one piece is a japanese story, so we can't really automatically expect that the D will stand for something that starts with the letter D in english.
Just something random popes in my mind at 20:06 paused to type cause idk what you'll say but, I believe Lili may have transferred the poneglyphs not with a DF such as the paw paw but with the help of the island whales or the species laboon is.
Another thing involving the X/D and traitor idea. We have another meaning for X that actually starts with a D, in the story. That would be X aka Diez aka TEN Drake, who acted as an agent for Sword and was a traitor in the beast pirates when he asked Luffy aka joyboy to fight by his side directly. Coincidence?
Excelent, it really makes a lot of sense, and it has or gibes profund meaning to a lot of others things in the story, in fact, it ads to the whole macro context of the story, and it puts the subject of "nakamas" in the front and in the center of it all, just like Oda has hinted many times... saying that One Piece is storie about Nakamas.
I thought you were going to say since it’s Davy “Back” that Joy Boy went around challenging other groups for members, and all the fights were held on Davy’s back, if it does end up being an Island Whale . The only problem I could see with this is that if Joy Boy is the first pirate (I assume this means that he was the first one to ever fly a Jolly Roger and not literally the first ever criminal to own a boat) then the other “pirates” would have no obligation to honor the rules of a Davy Back Fight, or even accept one in the first place, since none of them would be bound by a Pirate’s Code (Guidelines)
The Will of D, means destined. Everyone who has the Will of D means that they are destined to do something great, whether it’s something good like Luffy or something bad like Rocks and BB. Every member of the D clan is destined for something great in their life time, EX Rocks was destined to have the strongest pirate crew, Roger to find the one piece, Law to have the power of immortality, and Luffy to save the world. That’s why the Imu and the 5 Elders are after anyone who have the will of D because they don’t know who is destined for what.
well, it makes sense but it doesn't add up. The issue is that some characters are destined to do something great but don't have the D. Otherwise, Newgate, Shanks, all emperors of the sea, Vegapunk... and other characters would also be a D. It is also very hard to determine wheter something is great of not, it is too abstract. Also, if they were destined to do something, they would be born with the D, but as we saw with Sabo, you can aquire the D
@@chic7489 but Vegapunk and Shanks and Newgate seems like they are all doing something great for someone in D Clan as well, Newgate to save Ace at marineford, Shanks to guide Luffy, and Vega punk to Learn about the history of joyboy and the void century.
I wrote this unhinged thing a little while back but I have a some experience with portugease and japanese culture and language and the portugease are the nation who ended japan's isolationism, the portgas, portugal, wano, japan, period of isolation, and protugal ending the isolation, are the hinge points of all this So this is not particularly related to this video at all however I think I might have stumbled upon the meaning of the will of D. So we start in Brazil- stay with me here. A land of heavy influence from Portugal that speaks Portuguese. Portugal was the country who Japan first traded with when they ended their centuries long isolation with. Portugal, is a very similar word to Portgas. Brazil is most known nowadays for the sport of Jiu-Jitsu. In fact Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was created by the followers of a man named Mitsuyo Maeda, who travelled the world with the goal of finding and fighting all of the strongest men in wrestling, easily overpowering people from many countries in a legendary fashion. Maeda was born at the very end of shogunate Japan before the government and landscape became imperial Japan. Maeda was like the last messenger to make it out of honest shogunate Japan and just explore the world. In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu any black belt from any country in the world knows the word fodase. It comes from the followers of Maeda and means essentially some conglomeration of all of this A warrior with a nonchalant fuck it attitude A happy warrior who smiles in the face of a "fuck it" situation Someone essentially will go into a match with a larger stronger opponent laughing and being like shit, here we go hahaha lets do it And Brazil is essentially was founded by runaway slaves and pirates mingling with the natives of south and central America and idk the fodase-maeda-japan-portugal-portugease ending japanese isolation. It definitely passes occams razor because all the elements required for it to be true are simply... pirates... people wanting freedom, slaves, a man leaving Japan to explore the world and fight all the strongest people, the portgas being son of roger and having the portugal connection, again the country that ended Japanese Isolationism... phew. Wow. It's just like there's not a piece that doesn't fit. Maeda left and Japan went full Imperial and shogunates were ended, and when Oden left, an oppressive regime steps in, and who stops it, the guy who inherited the will of Portgas, or the Japanese fusion in Brazil, who inherited the will of his dad Roger, WHO NEEDED ODEN TO UNLOCK THE SECRETS OF THE WORLD. Oden is Maeda, Roger is Portugal, Roger and Oden unlock the secrets of the world but ultimately One Piece is inspired by a Japanese view of the world and Oden is our perfect Maeda as far as being a man hellbound to leave Japa-wano and meet all the strongest people, and Maeda's will in real life was inherited by a family who became Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practictioners for the next several generations making the sport known to all across the world and the family who carried on Maeda's teaching always stressed this idea of Fodase and never doubting yourself and being a happy care free warrior who nonchalantly goes- this is probably won't end well but still jumps at the challenge with a smile and happy warrior energy also I should add ask anyone who is a legit Jiu-Jitsu practitioner what their lineage is, and they know what part of the Gracie family their sensei's sensei's sensei comes from, even the way we tie our belts is dependent on which side of the Gracie family your lineage is. And you're not legit if you weren't taught by someone, who was taught by someone, who was taught by a Gracie, the Gracie's inherited the will of Maeda, and anyone who is a legit Jiu Jitsu practitioner has heard the term fodase, unless its just like their first year or something
@@greybo4034 from a Japanese allegory perspective Oden is definitely the main character and obviously his kids who were pushed 20 years into the future
Great video Dak's, hey do you think during the Void Century we'll see races we never seen before? Also do you still think your Ancient Weapons being alive beings theory is still possible with the current info that just got reveled?
Here's a crazy theory about the identity of D.: It's Joyboy's ship. We know from the Going Merry that ships can be alive and have wills, and of course it would be appropriate for Joyboy to also have a ship with a klabautermann. Not only that, but calling something "the will of a ship" could also be a way of saying "the will of a crew", since the two things are often synonymous, a crew is nothing without its ship, and a ship is nothing without its crew. Thus, the Will of D. could be the collective will of Joyboy's crew, carried on through those who sailed on his ship and their descendants. Those who carry the D. belong on the D., the ship and crew of Joyboy, and that revelation could cause everyone with the D., except the potential traitor, to all come together in a way nobody would have ever expected such different people to otherwise. Hell, maybe the ship is still out there somewhere, and it will literally bring everyone together under the same sail, though that's a stretch on my part.
@@thakidd5299 I'm used to "Luffy" myself, but I understand it was only used in English translations because it just sounds better to those of us who are native English speakers. Ruffy (especially if pronounced more a Spanish "ru-") is honestly closer to the original Japanese ル and is also used in many official translations globally.
Interesting theory. Here's my question though...why exactly would Imu even agree to a Davy Back fight in the first place? "Well, I'm planning to obliterate your kingdom, wipe it from history, take over the world, and cause a massive flood killing millions..but before I commit genocide, let's have a Davy Back fight and try to steal each other's crew members".
I feel like he locked in after 800 years yk😭😭 bro was done being disrespected just started Alt deleting islands💀 maybe he was young and foolish back in the day, after 800 years you'd lose ur prime sooner or later
Bro geest vid but could you start the video with if there are going to be manga spoilers or not for anime only’s like myself. THANK YOU BRO! (Imma sub rn)
My only issue with "Davy" being the name is the fact that the tradition of "Davy Back Fights" COULDNT exist if it was part of the void century. Pirates or not, the name Davy simply living into the future goes against EVERYTHING the void century represents
Related to this I think the following: I don’t think the D has sth to do with blood related to begin with but it simply was the sign that u are part of the crew/ kingdom. I mean bloodrelated almost means nothing in one piece…it’s always about that “true family“ is the real family Lily originally infiltrated the D clan. She had a change of heart because she realized that joyboy is a good person and probably fell in love (romance Dawn…could be a nice Easter egg. Everything started because of a love story). She became a double agent because of it and imu till the end was not sure if she did a mistake or betrayed him. When he found out about the the letter signed as D he finally knew (as u said). I could think of a story where the traitor is revealed as lilys family and everybody thinks Vivi is a traitor except luffy. As some said I think D stand for Dawn or for a smile. I think we’ll only find out everything on laughtale (which is on or to be specific under Long Ring Long Land Island (thats my headcanon and nobody can convince me otherwise)
My theory is that Davey Jones was one of Joy Boys' crew mates, and he stole the one piece for himself, causing Joy Boy to lose against Imu. But hey, that's just a theory
What if ''D'' stand for ''Devil''? i mean if celestial dragons adding ''St'' which stands for ''Saint'' before their names then the same thing could be the case in D. clans example.
Shanks is the traitor, also the pluton is the laser thing which destroys islands. Lucci has a photographic memory. Back in Ennis lobby Franky flip through the blueprint pages before burning it and he was able to memorize it. That's why he went from cp-9 the lowest rank ops to cp-0.
the fact that anyone could have challenged the world government to a davy back fight and they would have to play by the rules is funny and plausible, specially considering imu hid themself so whoever could come up with this idea wouldnt be able to face their captain to challenge them in the first place, I think it makes sense
I am surprised that you did not mention shanks as a possible fake D, considering his friendship with the gorosei,his incredibile influence over the pirate world and the fact that he was in possession of the gomu gomu fruite.
There was a theory video of the one piece being on long ring long land (shaped like a crown), which would be revealed during aqua laguna when the waters recede. And then, i find it interesting that the Davey Back fight happened ON long ring long land, maybe foreshadowing the Will of D(avey) and his treasure
I know i'm so late to this video, but i've seen people speaking of a theory where Zunesha is the Chopper (if he took gumball-injection) of Joyboys pirate crew. Zunesha carries a bandage on one of his/hers front legs. Imagine if removed it revealed a "D" underneath.
A previous Ope Ope no mi user definitely helped out the WG since most of them are immortal(at least from aging.) Maybe they had multiple users. Having Law be a traitor in the end would suck but maybe its in theme.
hope this video ages well it very well could be shot down in like a few weeks edit: i should preface this by saying i haven’t watched the whole video yet
I feel like the D stands for the name of the planet. Which is still unknown. The will of D being the will of the planet, while the Ds are considered the enemy of the Gods that rule the planet. With Nika the Sun God being a member of the D clan, reincarnated into Luffy, whos biggest dream is to be free and explore the world to his hearts content. Granted im more than likely wrong, but its a fun hypothesis.
This would also explain why joyboy sent the apology to the fishmen, assuming joyboy is exactly like luffy then it would make no sense for joyboy to send an apology letter saying he can’t do something, luffy wouldn’t give up until he died, and joyboy was exactly the same, but if he was taken during a Davy back fight by imu then this would make perfect sense since if that happened then he’d essentially already lost, so he wouldn’t be able to fulfill his promises, hence the apology
I saw a theory relating the "D" to be related to Djinn, supernatural creatures of varied morals and powers including shapeshifting and manipulation of the elements. Jinn is the colloquial term. Curiously jinn also sound like "Gin".
I do love this idea, but the problem in my opinion is that a very big part is gambled on there being a davy back fight between the world government. I don't know if that is actually so likely
What if D is like a name for the true gods. Would be kinda funny if that Imu and Celestial dragons co-opted themselves as gods but they were the actual devils. Even Imu's arrow power is shaped like the devil's tail in cartoons.
My only thing with the Joyboy did the immortal surgery thing for Imu. Is if they swapped a preferable personality into their enemy's body and had the nika fruit under wraps. Why wouldn't they give that person the immortality surgery too, to prevent someone else getting their hands on the fruit. I refuse to believe this outcome happened and they didn't have a fruit nearby so they let the Op Op No Mi get away AND let the person swap into Joyboy die and that fruit got away as well.
After this chapter it’s pretty obvious that the will of D is someone’s haki that was passed down to a certain group of people. Same concept with the swords/special grade weapons.
wait now we know the gorosei actual height in their other forms then the chapter when they all tried to jump sabo must mean the room is hugeeee or the scaling in my head is fucked
they said that stealing the captain in a davy back fight is a “peanut” move, what if imu looks like a peanut and that comes from a luffy-style nickname

I think imu’s weakness is laughter or smiling. D’s die with a smile to defy Imu’s will till the end.
I love this video. Editing is so clean. Mad respect.
The Will of D, means destined. Everyone who has the Will of D means that they are destined to do something great, whether it’s something good like Luffy or something bad like Rocks and BB. Every member of the D clan is destined for something great in their life time, EX Rocks was destined to have the strongest pirate crew, Roger to find the one piece, Law to have the power of immortality, and Luffy to save the world.
That’s why the Imu and the 5 Elders are after anyone who have the will of D because they don’t know who is destined for what.
well, it makes sense but it doesn't add up. The issue is that some characters are destined to do something great but don't have the D. Otherwise, Newgate, Shanks, all emperors of the sea, Vegapunk... and other characters would also be a D. It is also very hard to determine wheter something is great of not, it is too abstract. Also, if they were destined to do something, they would be born with the D, but as we saw with Sabo, you can aquire the D
@@chic7489sengoku was talking about how all d clan members have lined up fates maybe to plan joyboy awakening
LMAOO
@@chic7489 but Vegapunk and Shanks and Newgate seems like they are all doing something great for someone in D Clan as well, Newgate to save Ace at marineford, Shanks to guide Luffy, and Vega punk to Learn about the history of joyboy and the void century.
The goat dropped a new vid 🔥🔥
My D has also his own will, that why i name it Willy.
Bon clay is the best boy never talk about bon chan in a negative light!!
That boy dak always cookin
This one really got oda nervous gotta be 99% right, nice video ❤
D stands for the name of the Ancient kingdom.......the will of Ohara
I wrote this unhinged thing a little while back but I have a some experience with portugease and japanese culture and language and the portugease are the nation who ended japan's isolationism, the portgas, portugal, wano, japan, period of isolation, and protugal ending the isolation, are the hinge points of all this
So this is not particularly related to this video at all however I think I might have stumbled upon the meaning of the will of D.
So we start in Brazil- stay with me here. A land of heavy influence from Portugal that speaks Portuguese. Portugal was the country who Japan first traded with when they ended their centuries long isolation with. Portugal, is a very similar word to Portgas.
Brazil is most known nowadays for the sport of Jiu-Jitsu. In fact Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was created by the followers of a man named Mitsuyo Maeda, who travelled the world with the goal of finding and fighting all of the strongest men in wrestling, easily overpowering people from many countries in a legendary fashion. Maeda was born at the very end of shogunate Japan before the government and landscape became imperial Japan. Maeda was like the last messenger to make it out of honest shogunate Japan and just explore the world.
In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu any black belt from any country in the world knows the word fodase. It comes from the followers of Maeda and means essentially some conglomeration of all of this
A warrior with a nonchalant fuck it attitude
A happy warrior who smiles in the face of a "fuck it" situation
Someone essentially will go into a match with a larger stronger opponent laughing and being like shit, here we go hahaha lets do it
And Brazil is essentially was founded by runaway slaves and pirates mingling with the natives of south and central America and idk the fodase-maeda-japan-portugal-portugease ending japanese isolation. It definitely passes occams razor because all the elements required for it to be true are simply... pirates... people wanting freedom, slaves, a man leaving Japan to explore the world and fight all the strongest people, the portgas being son of roger and having the portugal connection, again the country that ended Japanese Isolationism... phew. Wow. It's just like there's not a piece that doesn't fit. Maeda left and Japan went full Imperial and shogunates were ended, and when Oden left, an oppressive regime steps in, and who stops it, the guy who inherited the will of Portgas, or the Japanese fusion in Brazil, who inherited the will of his dad Roger, WHO NEEDED ODEN TO UNLOCK THE SECRETS OF THE WORLD. Oden is Maeda, Roger is Portugal, Roger and Oden unlock the secrets of the world but ultimately One Piece is inspired by a Japanese view of the world and Oden is our perfect Maeda as far as being a man hellbound to leave Japa-wano and meet all the strongest people, and Maeda's will in real life was inherited by a family who became Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practictioners for the next several generations making the sport known to all across the world and the family who carried on Maeda's teaching always stressed this idea of Fodase and never doubting yourself and being a happy care free warrior who nonchalantly goes- this is probably won't end well but still jumps at the challenge with a smile and happy warrior energy
also I should add ask anyone who is a legit Jiu-Jitsu practitioner what their lineage is, and they know what part of the Gracie family their sensei's sensei's sensei comes from, even the way we tie our belts is dependent on which side of the Gracie family your lineage is. And you're not legit if you weren't taught by someone, who was taught by someone, who was taught by a Gracie, the Gracie's inherited the will of Maeda, and anyone who is a legit Jiu Jitsu practitioner has heard the term fodase, unless its just like their first year or something
Make a vid yo😂 interesting but i could barely make it half way
someone cooked here
Particularly interesting idea considering Oda stated in an SBS that if Luffy was from the real world, he would've been born in Brazil.
@@qap7oden is the main guy in his story
@@greybo4034 from a Japanese allegory perspective Oden is definitely the main character and obviously his kids who were pushed 20 years into the future
3:21 Is the answer that D is just the second half of XD… like someone dying of laughter?
Great video Dak's, hey do you think during the Void Century we'll see races we never seen before? Also do you still think your Ancient Weapons being alive beings theory is still possible with the current info that just got reveled?
One piece fans singing the alphabet song: a b c D..........
Let's make an ABC of One Piece characters! I'll start:
A for Arlong
B for Bon Clay
C is chopper
D for Doflamingo
E is for Emeth
Here's a crazy theory about the identity of D.: It's Joyboy's ship. We know from the Going Merry that ships can be alive and have wills, and of course it would be appropriate for Joyboy to also have a ship with a klabautermann. Not only that, but calling something "the will of a ship" could also be a way of saying "the will of a crew", since the two things are often synonymous, a crew is nothing without its ship, and a ship is nothing without its crew. Thus, the Will of D. could be the collective will of Joyboy's crew, carried on through those who sailed on his ship and their descendants. Those who carry the D. belong on the D., the ship and crew of Joyboy, and that revelation could cause everyone with the D., except the potential traitor, to all come together in a way nobody would have ever expected such different people to otherwise. Hell, maybe the ship is still out there somewhere, and it will literally bring everyone together under the same sail, though that's a stretch on my part.
Oooo, okay, now this one I hella like ;O
Ruffy also mentions always how he is NO Hero, because he dont want to share his most valuable treasure, meat. xD
Stop with that Ruffy bullshit
@@thakidd5299 I'm used to "Luffy" myself, but I understand it was only used in English translations because it just sounds better to those of us who are native English speakers. Ruffy (especially if pronounced more a Spanish "ru-") is honestly closer to the original Japanese ル and is also used in many official translations globally.
@@lapanthanim oda literally said its supposed to be Luffy
@@Hoshi7763 Cool. Not doubting you, but can you point to the source?
@@thakidd5299 stop being soooo mad about something so unimportant xD
Every time you post, you cook up a storm. 👏 🔥
Bro be cooking again.
Dude, you have great logic
Interesting theory. Here's my question though...why exactly would Imu even agree to a Davy Back fight in the first place?
"Well, I'm planning to obliterate your kingdom, wipe it from history, take over the world, and cause a massive flood killing millions..but before I commit genocide, let's have a Davy Back fight and try to steal each other's crew members".
maybe it's how they first met and decided to end it like that.
I feel like he locked in after 800 years yk😭😭 bro was done being disrespected just started Alt deleting islands💀 maybe he was young and foolish back in the day, after 800 years you'd lose ur prime sooner or later
I dont understand davy back fights, pirates arent suppose to fight fair no?
: D
X2
Bro geest vid but could you start the video with if there are going to be manga spoilers or not for anime only’s like myself. THANK YOU BRO!
(Imma sub rn)
If the secret history of the world was that it's all a Davy back fight, that would certainly be a "Laugh Tale"
My only issue with "Davy" being the name is the fact that the tradition of "Davy Back Fights" COULDNT exist if it was part of the void century. Pirates or not, the name Davy simply living into the future goes against EVERYTHING the void century represents
It’s not Law or Black beard, the true trader to the D clan is Monkey D Garp, and Dragon by association until his back story gets revealed.
Related to this I think the following:
I don’t think the D has sth to do with blood related to begin with but it simply was the sign that u are part of the crew/ kingdom. I mean bloodrelated almost means nothing in one piece…it’s always about that “true family“ is the real family
Lily originally infiltrated the D clan. She had a change of heart because she realized that joyboy is a good person and probably fell in love (romance Dawn…could be a nice Easter egg. Everything started because of a love story). She became a double agent because of it and imu till the end was not sure if she did a mistake or betrayed him. When he found out about the the letter signed as D he finally knew (as u said). I could think of a story where the traitor is revealed as lilys family and everybody thinks Vivi is a traitor except luffy.
As some said I think D stand for Dawn or for a smile.
I think we’ll only find out everything on laughtale (which is on or to be specific under Long Ring Long Land Island (thats my headcanon and nobody can convince me otherwise)
My theory is that Davey Jones was one of Joy Boys' crew mates, and he stole the one piece for himself, causing Joy Boy to lose against Imu.
But hey, that's just a theory
Law was also the dude to bring up traitors and the Pirates backstab.
Oh D Ah
What if ''D'' stand for ''Devil''?
i mean if celestial dragons adding ''St'' which stands for ''Saint'' before their names then the same thing could be the case in D. clans example.
Shanks is the traitor, also the pluton is the laser thing which destroys islands. Lucci has a photographic memory. Back in Ennis lobby Franky flip through the blueprint pages before burning it and he was able to memorize it. That's why he went from cp-9 the lowest rank ops to cp-0.
@@coryshelton1574 cp9 is the second highest, js below cp0
Cp9 is the second highest
the fact that anyone could have challenged the world government to a davy back fight and they would have to play by the rules is funny and plausible, specially considering imu hid themself so whoever could come up with this idea wouldnt be able to face their captain to challenge them in the first place, I think it makes sense
I am surprised that you did not mention shanks as a possible fake D, considering his friendship with the gorosei,his incredibile influence over the pirate world and the fact that he was in possession of the gomu gomu fruite.
D stands for …
Deez NUTZ hah goteeem 😂
There was a theory video of the one piece being on long ring long land (shaped like a crown), which would be revealed during aqua laguna when the waters recede. And then, i find it interesting that the Davey Back fight happened ON long ring long land, maybe foreshadowing the Will of D(avey) and his treasure
I know i'm so late to this video, but i've seen people speaking of a theory where Zunesha is the Chopper (if he took gumball-injection) of Joyboys pirate crew. Zunesha carries a bandage on one of his/hers front legs. Imagine if removed it revealed a "D" underneath.
A previous Ope Ope no mi user definitely helped out the WG since most of them are immortal(at least from aging.) Maybe they had multiple users. Having Law be a traitor in the end would suck but maybe its in theme.
12:45 is diamond level editing.
I got goosebumps at all the potential vivi/ lili comparisons
I named my daughter Vivienne Davi 4.5 years ago, I think if it's true I need to get a haki big brain lifetime achievement award
hope this video ages well it very well could be shot down in like a few weeks
edit: i should preface this by saying i haven’t watched the whole video yet
The current chapter has a panel where the gear 5 of luffy in the newspaper has luffy with his X mark on it.
I feel like the D stands for the name of the planet. Which is still unknown.
The will of D being the will of the planet, while the Ds are considered the enemy of the Gods that rule the planet.
With Nika the Sun God being a member of the D clan, reincarnated into Luffy, whos biggest dream is to be free and explore the world to his hearts content.
Granted im more than likely wrong, but its a fun hypothesis.
This would also explain why joyboy sent the apology to the fishmen, assuming joyboy is exactly like luffy then it would make no sense for joyboy to send an apology letter saying he can’t do something, luffy wouldn’t give up until he died, and joyboy was exactly the same, but if he was taken during a Davy back fight by imu then this would make perfect sense since if that happened then he’d essentially already lost, so he wouldn’t be able to fulfill his promises, hence the apology
I've been saying this for a while now. That pact they made with Vivi is the same pact JoyBoy made with everyone else, and that is what the D clan is.
D stands for got that Dog in him.
Going around starting as many family's as possible. Hot dog !
I saw a theory relating the "D" to be related to Djinn, supernatural creatures of varied morals and powers including shapeshifting and manipulation of the elements. Jinn is the colloquial term. Curiously jinn also sound like "Gin".
I love this theory, soley because it finally makes THAT arc important 😂
I do love this idea, but the problem in my opinion is that a very big part is gambled on there being a davy back fight between the world government. I don't know if that is actually so likely
imagine the win condition to beat Imu is to make Imu smile
What if D is like a name for the true gods. Would be kinda funny if that Imu and Celestial dragons co-opted themselves as gods but they were the actual devils. Even Imu's arrow power is shaped like the devil's tail in cartoons.
The D stand's for someone's name if joy boy was the first pirate than maybe his real name was something that starts with D.
Oh shit so this is jumanji. Even down to the new players taking over. I kinda love that an 800 year old davy back fight hasnt finished
My only thing with the Joyboy did the immortal surgery thing for Imu. Is if they swapped a preferable personality into their enemy's body and had the nika fruit under wraps. Why wouldn't they give that person the immortality surgery too, to prevent someone else getting their hands on the fruit. I refuse to believe this outcome happened and they didn't have a fruit nearby so they let the Op Op No Mi get away AND let the person swap into Joyboy die and that fruit got away as well.
After this chapter it’s pretty obvious that the will of D is someone’s haki that was passed down to a certain group of people. Same concept with the swords/special grade weapons.
dude the more i listen the more all the things make sense
I'm pretty sure D doesn't have to be passed through lineage. It just looks that way because it's a very intimate bond
It would also foreshadow Robin saying pirate alliances end in betrayal with Trafalgar
wait now we know the gorosei actual height in their other forms then the chapter when they all tried to jump sabo must mean the room is hugeeee or the scaling in my head is fucked
Scaling in One Piece is kinda vague... there would be no reason why they couldnt have used a mixed form that is not as huge as their form on egg head.
7:18 Luffy just destroys the eternal logpost to laughtale like a Boss
they said that stealing the captain in a davy back fight is a “peanut” move, what if imu looks like a peanut and that comes from a luffy-style nickname
