One Piece 2025: All Your Top Fan Searches on Gear 5, Imu Sama & More—Answered by Jagansid
Hey Nakama! If you've ever found yourself deep in a 3
a.m. theory spiral about Joy Boy or wondered why Shanks gives off those “final
boss in disguise” vibes—this one’s for you. Let's sail through the ten hottest
questions One Piece fans are asking in 2025 and unpack what they truly mean.
1.
What is Luffy’s Gear 5, really?

Forget everything you know about power-ups. Gear 5 is
the awakened form of the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika, a Mythical
Zoan Devil Fruit. Luffy doesn’t just get stronger—he becomes the embodiment
of freedom itself. His rubber body stretches the laws of reality, allowing him
to bend lightning, manipulate his surroundings like a living cartoon, and fight
with pure creativity. This transformation is not just physical—it's
philosophical, a direct callback to Joy Boy and the spirit of liberation.
2. How did Luffy defeat Kaido?
It wasn’t brute force alone that brought the Yonko down.
Luffy, after pushing past his limits again and again, finally unlocked Gear 5
and used the Bajrung Gun, a fist so massive it dwarfed Onigashima. This
final blow wasn’t just a battle-winner—it symbolized the fall of tyranny and
the rise of a new era. Kaido’s defeat marked the end of an oppressive chapter
for Wano and the start of something freer, wilder, and unpredictable.
3. What is the Egghead Arc about?
The Egghead Island Arc dives headfirst into the
science-fiction heart of the One Piece world. Set on an island brimming with
futuristic tech and Vegapunk’s bizarre creations, it unravels truths
about Devil Fruits, the Void Century, and the ancient kingdom
that once rivaled the World Government. This arc has been pivotal in
transitioning the story into its final saga—revealing hidden players, secret
powers, and long-suppressed knowledge that changes everything we thought we
knew.
4. Who is Imu Sama?

Imu, the shadow monarch of the world, is the greatest
enigma One Piece has ever introduced. Sitting atop the Empty Throne,
which was believed to symbolize equality among nations, Imu’s mere existence
proves the entire world order is a lie. Recently identified as Saint Nerona
Imu, this figure may be immortal, possibly connected to the original
twenty royal families, and commands the fearsome Gorosei. Their motives
are hidden, their power terrifying—and they may just be the key to unlocking
the true history of the world.
5. Who was Joy Boy?
Joy Boy was a figure of the Void Century, a
liberator who opposed the oppressive forces that eventually became the World
Government. He was the first to possess the power of the Nika Fruit,
symbolizing joy and freedom. His failed promise to the people of Fish-Man
Island left a lingering sadness, but his legacy lives on through Luffy. Joy
Boy is not just a name—he’s a mantle passed down to those destined to break the
chains of oppression.
6. What is the Will of D.?
The "Will of D." is the heartbeat of rebellion in
the One Piece world. Carried by individuals like Gol D. Roger, Monkey
D. Luffy, and Trafalgar D. Water Law, it signifies an inherited will
that stands against tyranny and fate itself. These “D.”-bearers often change
the course of history, seemingly guided by a destiny that transcends logic or
lineage. As the story approaches its climax, the Will of D. may be revealed as
the ancient force that once rivaled—and may yet destroy—the current world
order.
7. What are the Ancient Weapons?
The Ancient Weapons are remnants of a civilization so
powerful, their tools could shape—or shatter—the world:
- Pluton:
A colossal battleship said to be buried beneath Wano, capable of
obliterating entire islands.
- Poseidon:
Not a weapon, but a person—Shirahoshi, who can command the Sea
Kings and potentially sink entire fleets.
- Uranus:
Still unknown, but heavily speculated to be tied to celestial forces or
sky-based destruction.
Together, they form a trinity of power capable of toppling
the World Government—and perhaps restoring balance.
8. How does Blackbeard wield two Devil Fruits?
No one else has done it—and lived. Marshall D. Teach
(Blackbeard) broke the fundamental law of Devil Fruits by consuming both the Yami
Yami no Mi (Darkness) and Gura Gura no Mi (Earthquake). Some say
it’s due to his unique physiology—hinted at by Marco and others—while others
theorize he performed some forbidden ritual. His body might be abnormal,
perhaps containing multiple souls or organs. Whatever the truth, he’s a walking
apocalypse—powerful enough to challenge anyone in the New World.
9. What is Shanks’ true power?

Despite being one of the most influential characters, Shanks
remains largely a mystery. We’ve seen only glimpses—like when his mere presence
made an Admiral back down. His Conqueror’s Haki is so advanced it can
disable an opponent’s ability to predict the future. Some believe Shanks is
connected to the Celestial Dragons or holds some ancient power kept
secret to maintain balance. Whatever he's hiding, Shanks is a force waiting to
be fully unleashed.
10. Who are the Gorosei really?
These aren’t just five old advisors. Each Gorosei is
named after a planet—Saturn, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Mercury—and they've
been shown to possess Mythical Zoan Devil Fruits. They serve Imu
directly and may be immortal entities who have lived since the Void
Century. Their monstrous forms, revealed in the Egghead Arc, suggest
they’re more than political leaders—they are ancient guardians of a corrupted
system built on secrecy and blood.
Final Thoughts
As we enter the climax of One Piece’s Final Saga,
these questions aren't just fan debates—they're the framework of the story’s
end. Whether you're a veteran from the East Blue days or a new recruit on the
Grand Line, one thing’s for sure: the best (and wildest) is yet to come.
