the Finale of Chapter 1043 of ONE PIECE it’s definitely a hoot. Eiichiro Oda made a special decision that will affect the rest of the manga. The final scene with Luffy, which some fans also published in color, is now circulating on the web and inevitably there have been comparisons and theories about this situation.
Especially on the ONE PIECE subreddit, everyone is in turmoil, formulating hypotheses and comparisons of all kinds, pondering present and past in minute detail. In this context, a ONE PIECE enthusiast made a comparison with a past situation.
the Awakening of Joy Boy, which could be related to Nika given Luffy’s laughter on the last page, could mean a new freedom. Zunisha listens to the sound of the “freedom drums”, suggesting that Joy Boy was a liberating figure, just like Nika freed the slaves. Luffy could be her incarnation, or at least an heir to her will.
In this context, the comparison between past and present is clear as Kaido has enslaved Wano through Orochi and his plan is to make everyone even more trapped and without freedom once the war is over. A Reign of the slaves that will end with the return of Joy Boy, also known as Luffy. After all, according to this fan, Kaido would have done anything to release the new Joy Boy at Wano. Do you agree with this vision?
