a piece Currently in the Elbaf arc, and as this is part of the final saga, fans will inevitably get many exciting revelations about ancient history in this part of the story. Oda has already revealed the ancient mural of Elbaf that was carved into the Adam Tree earlier in the arc, and Loki flashback Fans have already been given a lot of big revelations about Emu, and even Legends like Joy Boy and Davy Jones. While much attention has been paid Davy Jones In this arc, fans should also note that Joy Boy remains more central to the story than ever before.
Even if it doesn't seem like it, Both Joy Boy and Davy Jones are central to the God Valley phenomenon Of Elbaf Flashback. Recently, Oda has revealed some important information about Davy's Will, but the Will of Joy boy, who was introduced much earlier in the story, remains with him as his bloodline. The fans know Luffy is the next Joy Boy Chosen by hereditary will. Luffy has Nika's powers And he also received the Joy Boy title from Junesha and Momonosuke.

Joy Boy had Nika's powers

Luffy is the current Nika
The idea of Joy Boy can be used in different ways by Oda. When it comes to someone who inherits Joy Boy's wish and goes on to fulfill it, no one needs to look past Luffy. Luffy has the same powers as Joy Boywas confirmed in the Egghead arc a pieceAnd he was confirmed to be Joy Boy by Emu himself. In almost every way, Luffy is another Joy boy of the present age.
I can hear it, the drums of salvation! After 800 years, Joy Boy is back! — Junesha in One Piece Chapter 1044
He is Nika, the warrior of liberation, and continues to liberate everywhere he goes. In the end, Luffy will wage war against the World Government and play an important role in eliminating Imu. As mentioned above, in terms of hereditary will and being the one who fulfills the old promise, Luffy will probably play the role of Joy Boy. But, there it is Another character that Oda can relate to is Joy Boy Also, and that's it Shanks.
Shanks may be a descendant of Joy Boy
He may carry the blood of Ananda Keta
While Luffy inherited Joy Boy's will, Shanks may be related to him by blood. This is not obvious at the surface level, however Shanks was born in Lord Ghatiwhere Emu himself said that the likes of Davey and Joy Boy would never come again.
The likes of Davey and Joy Boy will never come again, and Mu will make sure they do by killing you. – Emu to Rocks
conveniently, Two new bloodlines The rock that was saved here was a certain one The Secret Red Haired Woman About which the fans know nothing. God Valley itself is connected to D, as the Davy Clan lived here, and it was called the Island of Destiny. Shanks himself is a child of destiny.
Like Emu Davy and Joy wanted to delete the boyShanks and Blackbeard was rescued from God Valley. The two have always had similarities, and both are likely descendants of legendary figures from the Zero Century. To solidify the idea, one only needs to look at Joy Boy from Fishman Island, and it's clear that he looks exactly like Shanks, and the final cherry on top is the fact that. Oda directly compared Joy Boy's hockey to Shanks. Shanks wasn't the savior of the world or another Joy BoyBut he may still carry his blood and play a major role in bringing down the World Government.
