This article contains spoilers from One Piece's Elbaf Arc.
The world of One Piece is filled to the brim with mysteries that Oda has yet to answer, despite the series being in the Final Saga. Despite all that, fans know very well that One Piece's Final Saga will bring a lot of answers to all the readers of the story as Oda solves all the mysteries one by one. Right now, one of the biggest mysteries that fans of One Piece have is concerning Joy Boy.
One Piece: Oda Officially Reveals The Most Legendary Family In The Story
The Monkey D. Are quite iconic in One Piece, but this family is even more legendary.
Having been introduced in the Post-Time Skip of One Piece, fans don't know much about it, not even his real name. Oda has certainly revealed bits of exciting information about him, such as his role in the Void Century war as well as his Devil Fruit powers, but he has yet to reveal personal details about himself, which is somewhat strange. Now, however, Oda might just have revealed the true name of Joy Boy, and it might just be Davy D. Jones.
Joy Boy's Real Name Might Be Davy D. Jones
Joy Boy Was The First Pirate
- Joy Boy Was Likely A Buccaneer
- The Davy Family Might Also Be Buccaneers
One Piece fans know very well that Davy Jones existed in the world long ago, during the Void Century. He was first introduced in the story during the Long Ring Long Land arc, but he only got more attention recently during the Elbaf arc of One Piece. Fans initially assumed that Davy Jones and Joy Boy are two different individuals, and that might still be the case. However, newer details that Oda has revealed now add a lot of excitement. Oda recently went on to reveal that the Davy Clan could potentially be a group of Buccaneers. This means that all the descendants of the Davy family might have Buccaneer blood, including Rocks and Teach.
Who are you Joy Boy? Who are you apologizing to? — Nico Robin
One Piece: Oda Has Already Revealed Davy D. Jones' Devil Fruit Ability
Davy D. Jones was a pirate on the level of Joy Boy, and he had a Devil Fruit just as overpowered in One Piece.
More than that, fans know very well that Joy Boy himself was most likely a Buccaneer as well. This is quite clear from his appearance, as his hat is way too big to belong to a human, but too small to belong to a Giant or Ancient Giant. He also wasn't born from a Giant nation. Clearly, Joy Boy being a Buccaneer, just like Davy D. Jones, a legendary pirate from the Void Century, raises a lot of questions.
Joy Boy Could Be The Ancestor Of Teach
Joy Boy Could've Been Misunderstood
It is highly likely that Joy Boy and Davy Jones are one and the same. The fact is that Joy Boy isn't a name, but a title. Right now, Luffy is Joy Boy, and Kaido also wanted to become Joy Boy. The previous Nika during the Void Century became Joy Boy, but he wasn't born with this name. His real name remains unknown to this day, which means that there is a high chance of Joy Boy's Real name being Davy D. Jones. Hopefully, Oda will shed some light on it soon enough, and fans will find out the answers to all the mysteries surrounding individuals such as Davy D. Jones and Joy Boy.
