🚨 A MEGA BLOCKBUSTER AFTER 28 YEARS: PART OF ONE PIECE HAS BEEN “DECODED” – NOT GOLD, SILVER, OR DEVIL FRUIT, BUT A “JOKE” ABOUT VOID CENTURY FROM JOY BOY?! šŸ˜±šŸ“œ

One Piece fans have been dying to find out about the One Piece treasure for a long time and Eiichiro Oda might have already hinted at it.

Eiichiro Oda’sĀ One PieceĀ has been going on for almost three decades, and the one question that has remained constant throughout the series is: What isĀ One Piece?Ā The treasure has been hinted at to turn the world upside down and bring the biggest shift within the story and within theĀ One PieceĀ world, but to this day, no one except the manga creator knows what it is.

However, according to a theory byĀ u/Fickle-Scar-3182 on Reddit, Oda might have hinted at the treasure, or at least a part of it, when he delivered the Gol D. Roger flashback of reaching Laugh Tale and finding out the treasure. The hint by the mangaka suggests thatĀ One PieceĀ is not a Devil Fruit or a weapon, but a story that recounts the events of the Void Century.

Did Roger’s Hidden Words Reveal the True One Piece?

AlthoughĀ Eiichiro OdaĀ has never clearly revealed what theĀ One PieceĀ treasure really is, Roger’s words when he first saw it give an important hint. In Chapter 967 ofĀ One Piece, when Roger and his crew landed on Laugh Tale and discovered the truth left behind by Joy Boy, he commented: ā€œThis is quite a treasure you left behind, a tale full of laughs.ā€ The word tale here grabs the attention, as even other translation mentions it being a story or a tale.

Not only that, when Oden wrote about their adventures in his notes, he mentioned that it was on that day they learned all the truths of the world. The only way they could have learned all the truths about theĀ One PieceĀ world is if they somehow got their hands on the written description of the mysteries of the world, including the Ancient Kingdom, Joy Boy, the establishment of the World Government, Ancient Weapons, etc.

Even though there are certain plot holes within this theory, it still sounds reasonable for Oda to include some kind of description ofĀ the past events with theĀ One PieceĀ treasure.Ā It is the only way that the pirate group that reaches Laught Tale in the future will be able to make sense out of it and place it accordingly in terms of the story and the fate of the world.

The Idea ofĀ One PieceĀ Being a Story Could Disappoint Some Fans

WhileĀ theĀ One PieceĀ treasure being a story or a description of the past events makes sense, a majority of fans won’t be excited about it at all. In fact, it might turn out to be a huge disappointment considering the hype that has been created around the treasure since the very beginning of the series. It is believed to be something that could change the fate of the world, and a tale describing the events of the past is simply not enough.

Another reason this idea could disappoint fans is the long-standing expectation thatĀ One PieceĀ is something real and extraordinary. For years, the story has built the treasure as a physical reward that pirates were willing to die for. Countless battles were fought, and entire crews risked everything to reach it. If the final answer turns out to be just a story or a record of past events, it would be heartbreaking.

While a story of the past of theĀ One PieceĀ world could still play an important role in revealing the truth, it risks falling short of the massive hype created over the decades. Many fans want a conclusion that feels powerful, emotional, and worth the long wait, and it can only be achieved when theĀ One PieceĀ treasure turns out to be something completely unexpected. What do you think theĀ One PieceĀ treasure is? Let us know below!
