In this theory i won’t tell you who exactly Luffy’s mother is, but i’ll try to bring out her personality. First, let’s see “how’s family works in One Piece”. Vinsmoke Family So, Vinsmoke Judge wants to create a strong army using his own children and Judge had removed all of…
The will of D. was revealed before the Grand Line! – Theory
This theory is so simple that you probably get mad and won’t even entertain it for a second. But I really urge you to try to be open about it and of course excuse my english. I am obviously not from an english speaking country. Most people have an idea that Enel comes back from the moon and tells us what the secrets of the world are and how the ancient kingdom came from the moon and what not. None of that will happen in this theory. So if you are someone who is fixed on that idea you will probably won’t like this. I can imagine most people will hate this theory because it truly is obvious. Maybe it sounds arrogant and it just might be, but I had this idea for like 10 years and still have not heard anybody talk about it. OK, enough for an introduction. You want to know what the will of D. is, right?
Most people would agree we should start where the story kicks off.
With Gol D. Roger. He is the answer to everything. But can it be that easy? Can it be
conceivable that Gol D. Roger told us everything we need to know to solve this puzzle in the few sentences that where shown to us? I think so.
First of all he confirms within the dialogue with WB that he knows the meaning of the initial D.
Now let us come to the monologue which I think is misunderstood by most people. Because they think this is a seperate thing. This seems like the theme of the series and not having any connection with the will of D. .
“That which cannot be stopped:
1. Inherited will,
2. a man’s dream,
3. and the flow of time
As long as man continues to seek out the answer to freedom, these things shall never be stopped.”
THIS is the will of D. .
I know most people will be disappointed now. There thought a big reveal happens, but it was so simple that most people thought it was something different.
Not only does the meaning PERFECTLY fits what the will of D. is and is reflected in EVERY character with the initial D.
There is also some coding possible.
Now what does D mean? Do you see it when you look at all 3 points he mentioned? Look closer. One word for every line and its so obvious. I think you see it now. WILL OF DREAMS!
One way to decode is to look at the 2,3&4 word of the 3 sentences. I would be very interested how the japanese version shows it. It might be even the same word in every line. For example every 1st/2nd/3rd word might make the “will of dreams”.
Lets cognitive dissonance kick in and cloud our judgement here. I know you most likely have all these ideas about the devil and the enemy of god. We come to it later(maybe not today), I promise.
Now how does this exactly explain every character that has the initial d.?
Let me be clear, EVERY character follows this way of life. All of them, ESPECIALLY Blackbeard. Some people say he doesn’t have the will of dreams. If anything he personalizes it the MOST.
Look at this panel. Here Blackbeard tells us what the will of D. is AGAIN.
HE DIRECTLY paraphrases Roger? Did he know Roger? Probably not. But he still carries the will of D. . Fullfilling your dreams and not playing by societies rules if they come in your way. Dragon, Rogue, Roger, Saul, Luffy, Ace, Law, Blackbeard and even Garp where and are all people who will no matter what follow their dream. If they follow the way of “righteousness” they won’t cause conflict because it is in his interest. But if society doesn’t allow it they still follow their dream. They all seek their own answer to freedom and the tools by which they use it are the 3 stated. By having a dream is the most obvious one. The inherited will is a theme throughout the entire episode. This is true for Luffy and for everyone. This might be the line that throws people off the most. Because it applies to pretty much every strawhat, but is this the reason why Luffy could gather his crew? That he as a D. can lead people who inherited wills on their own. Are these people attracted to him. If one D. couldn’t lead them how could it elsewise prevent people from pursuing the meaning of freedom? And of course the flow of time. Is this a reference to the void century? Maybe. But maybe its just that the D. keep on contuining as long as people pursue the meaning of freedom. Once people stop the name of D. will die. But as long as a D. lives he can keep the dream on living. For that a will has to be inherited. And for that time has to pass or the times have to change. If the times are stagnant change can’t occure. This is a little philosophical and it might just be the case that its on point. But I would even simplify it more. The only point that really matters is the 2nd one. To pursue your dream you have to be free. The will of D. was introduced pretty much directly after the quote from Gol. D. Roger so its not something that was thought up later (Dr. Kuleha mentioned Gol D. Rogers real name and the will of D. in Drum Island, which was pretty much 2 short arcs away from Whiskey Peak ~30 chapters from the quote to drum island). There is a good possibility that he just wanted to enter 2 sentences that have “will” and “of” in it. If you think of “will” a sentence like the “inherited” just might pop into your head. Right? And if you think of “of” and you have to choose something that is in pursuit of freedom a mind like Oda just come up with “and the flow of time”. Sounds random? Its not, thats exactly how these things are created. You start with a premise like the “will of D.” and throw a riddle in there that exactly explains it if you can solve it. And you throw hints throughout the story to solve that puzzle. This is a basic way of creating a mystery.
I have more angles and proof but I think this is something the community has to think about. I could go on how every D. personifies it within the story but most of you can come up with that on your own. This community produced some great theories that in the end just came true.
You can see this as a first step into a bigger step. The next thing that I am aiming for is to connect this to the void century and end it by explaining what df’s really are and of course what the legendary weapons are. And why sea stone drains the power of df users? Is that a hint of what grants them their power?
If you read up until this point thanks for your attention and I hope I gave you an angle that you didn’t thought about before. Hell, maybe this theory is very common and I just haven’t seen it yet and I am making a buffoon of myself.
Well, take care!

Old Shichibukai as kids
D: Odacchi sensei!! Hear me out!! Please draw the 7 Shichibukai who made Luffy and Whitebeard suffer two years ago in the battle at Marineford as kids!! P.N. Harada Yutaka
O: Yeah. Sure-. Now I wonder how they look two years later~~. These are the ones that were in the Shichibukai at the time before the war actually began.
(From left to right, top to bottom. Row One: Jinbe, Dracule Mihawk, Gekko Moriah. Row Two: Boa Hancock, Sir Crocodile (former Shichibukai), Bartholomew Kuma. Row Three: Donquixote Doflamingo, Marshall D. Teach.)
Did you know how Portgas D. Ace ate Mera Mera no Mi? And how Spade Pirates was formed?
As we all know, Oda just released One Piece 20th Anniversary Special Articles: Portgas D. Ace Episode 1. Right now, only those who purchased the comic in Japan can enjoy the content. So let’s share the information from this Episode 1.
There is a beautiful island in East Blue, and there is a special island with unique ocean current. This ocean current flow in such a way that people can only to go in and unable to go out. The island is surrounded by full of dead bodies…In this island, Ace meets with another guy. Due to Ace’s boat damaged, he already drifted here for 6 days while the other guy was here for 3 days.
This guy felt extreme anxiety and started to talk with the skulls. On the other hands, Ace was planning to build a raft to leave this island but he kept failing. Ace recommended the guy to build a raft together, but that guy rejected the suggestion.
The guy has a dream of writing an adventure novel, he planned to use Ace’s name to write that novel, but Ace rejected. It is because Ace’s dream is much bigger than his dream of writing a novel. The guy always wears a mask, so Ace called it as Masked Deuce.
The guy doesn’t really like those people who always sailing in the ocean for pursuing their dream. Both of them kept chatting until late night. Masked Deuce is a medical student who was abandoned by his parent since he was young, so there are no places for him to go. The moment he left his own town, he gave up his name away too. Ace said that although he doesn’t have a parent, he got a lovely brother. His mother passes away after giving birth of him and his father is a highly wanted criminal. Masked Deuce said, “Highly wanted criminal? Hahaha! Can your father be the Pirates King?”
Ace didn’t respond but his facial expression was gloomy. Masked Deuce realized that it might be the truth…
On the second day, both of them still work on themselves separately. Ace continues on building raft while Masked Deuce was looking for food. He couldn’t find any food and decided to go for Ace, who has a lot of fruits on his hands. He was super hungry and decided to find some weapons to attacked Ace, so he can rob some of his fruits from him. However, Ace discovered that Masked Deuce is behind him due to the sound coming from his stomach. Surprisingly, Ace offers him some fruits to eat.
Until evening, Masked Deuce found out that there is some fire on Ace’s body. 1 of the fruits eaten by Ace was the “Flame-Flame Devil Fruit“. Ace worried that he will not be able to swim, which will be tougher for him to escape this island. Nevertheless, Masked Deuce saw a glimmer of hope.
After 1 day, both of them begin to train on fire, and the training was great.
Finally, it comes to the date when both of them want to leave. They’ve prepared all the things and Ace used his fire to push the raft away from the island successfully.
Ace: Do you want to take an adventurous journey with me?
Masked Deuce: I am sure I can write a good novel if I following you.
Both of them shake hand and Spade Pirates was formed.

Straw Hats: Who can cook?
D: In the Straw Hat Crew, Sanji is obviously the one who is the best at cooking, but who else is good at cooking? What is everyone’s speciality dish?
P.N. I created the praying mantis rooster.
O: Well then, I’ll be presenting to you what each member is best at making.
Luffy: Raw Meat on a Plate,
Zoro: Sashimi,
Nami: Roasted Duck with Orange Sauce,
Usopp: Fish & Chips,
Chopper: Mixed Juice,
Robin: Boiled Paella,
Franky: Barbecue,
Brook: Churrasco
Sanji is the best at cooking seafood, but he is overall good at making just about anything. Also, this has to do with how these characters grew up, but generally the ones other than Sanji who can actually do some decent cooking would be narrowed down to pretty much Nami, Usopp, and Robin.
Kozuki Momonosuke Powers
Momonosuke has the ability to communicate with the giant elephant Zunisha, being capable of seeing through its eyes and giving it orders, which is the only way it can do anything but walk.
Should Momonosuke order it to attack, he is in command of a powerful weapon capable of wiping out fleets in a single blow. Like his father, Momonosuke also has the ability to hear the “Voice of All Things”.
Momonosuke ate Vegapunk’s man-made Zoan-type Devil Fruit that was considered a failure.
It transformed him into a serpentine dragon which allows him to seemingly fly, when in actuality he somehow produced clouds that he was able to grab onto and climbed up that way.
However, as he has only eaten this fruit recently, he does not seem to have much control over it yet, and in fact transformed unwillingly into his full animal form shortly after consuming the fruit. He did not know that he could produce and climb clouds, as he told Luffy he was stuck in the garbage dump when they met there.
When he was frightened by a hunger-induced hallucination, he unconsciously used his cloud ability to escape with Luffy clinging to him.
He also did not know he could switch forms until Luffy told him. It is also possible, though, that he has no conscious control over his power because the fruit was artificial and a failure. He showed the ability to revert back to his human form when he reunited with Kin’emon. However, Momonosuke is shown to switch forms from time to time.
One Piece manga schedule – how it works
D: How is a volume of comics created? Like, where exactly does the “name” get decided, and everything? Please tell me.
O: The “name”. Ah yes. I do the “Great Name Introduction” in these books sometimes. I’ll give a full explanation of the order it goes in. The entire schedule we go through to get this book into your hands.
Step 1: Space Out
Space out dejectedly.
Step 2: Meeting
Talk to the people at Jump about what will be in the next chapter.
Step 3: Planning
Think about what will actually go in the chapter.
Step 4: Name
Write a “name” on a blank piece of paper.
Step 5: Show the Name
Fax the name to the boss. If he doesn’t like it, we fight, or I rename it.
Step 6: Master Copy
Call the assistants over to my house, and we go nuts for 2 or 3 days. We draw the master copy.
Step 7: Jump goes on Sale
Jump goes on sale around the country.
Step 8: Meeting
Now I talk with the high-tech boss Y-san about the cover of the book and how to color it.
Step 9: Make the Extras
Draw the cover pages and make the SBS.
Step 10: Book goes on Sale
It’s already complete a full month before it’s available in stores. The end.
So this is basically how it works. Well, this is my schedule, but all artists have their own pace. Just consider trying to draw before coming up with a name for your master copy is like manga artists’ block.
DISSECTING DEVIL FRUITS BROOK: THE DEVILS IMPLOSION
This is a dissection of the Yomi Yomi no Mi. The point of this dissection is to theorize a possible awakening, or power up for Brooks DF.
I believe that upon awakening Brook will unlock the “Master Exploder” technique.
Or more accurately a DF implosion technique…
The Yomi Yomi no Mi is different than all other shown DF on OP. It’s the only known DF that has a timing restraint. Meaning after eating it, it only made the user experience DF weaknesses, but didn’t grant the user any powers until they died.
Upon dying the user is reborn in a FREE moving spirit form. Untill it finds its original body (or another host presumably). The tragedy of Brook was he lost his original body and by the time he found it, it was just bones. Hence the sentient skeleton.
Aside from the skeletal body, the DF has granted brook other abilities such as, musical soul manipulation or hypnosis. Access to sword abilities that create cold as a byproduct of the underworld. And a soul form for recon.
The soul form and original stipulation of the DF will be the basis of this awakening speculation…
When Brook currently uses his soul form, he is always shown being tethered to his corporeal body.
It’s my belief that upon awakening or mastering this technique, he will be able to break this tether, and exist entirety In a soul form. Just like after Brook died and he was held in spirit form till he found his body (or any host assuambly)
I also believe that Brook will gain the ability to posses other people, creature, or objects. By forcing his soul into the object or person. Like he did on his body…
So how does this technique grant a power up, or make him the “Master Exploder”?
Well it’s simple. Unlike most popular assumption that DF abilities reside in the heart of the user. (BB ate WB heart, BM consumed Carmel’s heart or body whole) umm.. Brook has no heart.. So that theory kinda debunked…
And when his soul leaves his bones, the body drops lifeless. Meaning Brooks ability, personality, and DF are all stored in his soul. (presumably the same with all DF users)
This gives us two big power up potential for Brook;
1. The Devils implosion- if Brook was able to sever the tether to his body, and posses other people or object like he did the first time he died. And the fact that Brooks DF resides in his soul (as do all). If Brook forced his soul into a current DF user, like Doffy for arguments sake… Regaurdles of the victims power, Doffys body would explode because no person can have two fruits inside their body.
Brook woukd just reform in his logia esq soul body, and go back to his bones after.
2. Devils body and mind- because Brooks soul (DF container woukd no longer be attached to his body) it would be a fair assessment to view Brooks body, or bones as more of a vehicle or weapon, and not a part of Brooks DF… If this was the case, Brook’s bones could have a zoan of other DF put into them like funkfreid or alpacacino. And this shouldn’t conflict the rule of two, and give Brook access too some really cool techniques… On the downside he wouldn’t nessicarily be in control of the body anymore. Theoretically Brook could have DF implanted into each bone individually, or like just his hands and feet to house 3-4 DF… Think of it as taking Brooks arm off, inserting a DF then we attaching it.
What do you think?
*Theory by Portgas D. Xatch
ROGER’S OTHER SON THEORY
This is going to be unexpected.
Lots of pirates would have bastard sons back in the day, and leave them. So I am thinking, what about Gol. D Roger had a son before Ace?
The very man himself, Marshall D. Teach or also as known as: Blackbeard.
It’d be perfect since Roger would’ve been thirty-seven when he would have Teach. Source: http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/World_Timeline. I had it all checked out before writing up this theory.
I’m not going to dwell in who was the wife, because that’s useless to us. I want to explain why first. So, remember what happened in the Marineford arc? Whitebeard turned to Blackbeard and said: “You’re not the one Roger’s waiting for”, why did he say that to only Teach? He wasn’t the only pirate on the island, there was Buggy, Moriah, Crocodile or Luffy. It was a direct message to Blackbeard after he given it some thought too. He even specified that Teach was not one of those who properly carried the will of Gol. D Roger.
It was to tell Blackbeard “Just because you’re a legacy, do not feel as if you’re definitely the one.”
(I personally think it was a good personification when Whitebeard had said that their bloodline had been “extinguished” relating to Ace’s Mera Mera no mi)
In these few panels, Whitebeard claims that Blackbeard is not someone who carried the “Will of D” and disowns him from being one just like he disowned him from being his son.
You probably think that Roger and Teach look nothing a like, but when I look over the images Teach just looks like a fat roger with missing teeth and curly hair.
Relationship with Ace?
I think they both have a Ying-Yang relationship. Ace represents light, and Teach represents darkness. To completely diverse people, who are related by blood. It’s complicated to explain the Yin Yang between them. Though I think Oda showed this metaphorically between their battle:

LUFFY INSIDE AN EYE
D: Odacchi, greetings! I’ve been harboring some doubts lately. In Chapter 277 of Volume 30, when Luffy is trying to escape from the giant anaconda, he opens up the snake’s eyelids, but how can he do that when he’s inside the eye? Please ask Luffy how he did that!!
O: Yeah I know, that didn’t make any sense. Luffy! Come here!!
Luffy: What? What’s the problem? There’s nothing wrong about this.
O: Yes there is! How do you raise the eyelid from inside the eyeball? And while we’re on that subject, how can you be INSIDE the eyeball in the first place?!
Luffy: It’s all right, don’t worry about it. Wasn’t it funny?
O: Yeah, I guess it was! That’s the key.
Luffy: Yep yep, ahahaha.
O: Ahahahahaha…
