One Piece Chapter 1115 We Get A First Look At Joy Boy

Joy Boy Resembles Our Beloved Pirate Luffy

As Vegapunk continued to broadcast his message to the world in chapter 1115 of One Piece, a panel featuring the silhouette of Joy Boy was shown in the manga.
As the scientist revealed in his broadcast, there was a war ongoing between Joy Boy, the first pirate in One Piece, and the alliance of kingdoms. This panel showed Joy Boy in his Gear 5 form up in the air against people who are likely wearing a crown.
In the previous chapters, it was mentioned that Joy Boy battled against his enemies using Nika’s abilities, making him the former owner of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika (Luffy’s devil fruit, as explained in our Luffy’s gears guide). Now, Joy Boy’s silhouette exactly matches the appearance of Luffy in Gear 5 form. As per One Piece chapter 115 spoilers, you can see a big cloud hovering above his neck, which makes me believe Joy Boy’s Gear 5 also has a white motif. From the day we saw the big Straw Hat in the possession of Imu, we have been leaning towards the opinion of Joy Boy being a giant. Now that Joy Boy is confirmed to have been revered in the fable of the Giants, I feel that this theory could become a reality. Furthermore, the day Zunesha announced that Joy Boy had returned when Luffy unlocked Gear 5, we knew that this day would come when we would meet a person very similar to Luffy.
Last year, Oda teased us with the silhouettes of the Five Elders in their devil forms, and later on, the devil forms were unveiled this year. Thus, with Joy Boy’s tale being shared with everyone I think we would get to see the complete appearance of the first pirate in the manga soon.
That said, what do you think about Joy Boy’s silhouette in chapter 1115 of One Piece? Let us know in the comments below.
