Are you a true One Piece fan? Do you know who Joy Boy is? Joy Boy is known to be one of the most important and mysterious characters in the history of One Piece. He is the only character who has ever had a one-on-one encounter with Im Sama. Although Joy Boy is a significant figure, the creator of One Piece, Eiichiro Oda, never gave much information about him. But, recently Oda sensei revealed an interesting fact about his bounty in the One Piece universe.
According to Oda, Joy Boy’s bounty is worth 12.946.770.000 Belly, which is equivalent to the combined bounty of 4 Yonkou in One Piece. This is a significant amount, which even surpasses the individual bounties of Yonko, such as Shanks, Buggy, Luffy, and Kurohige. Surprising, isn’t it?
But why does Joy Boy have such a high bounty, even higher than some of the most dangerous pirates in One Piece? According to the fans’ assumptions, Gol D Roger had the highest bounty of 5.564.800.000 Belly because he managed to reach Laugh Tale, which is Gold Roger’s goal. On the other hand, both Kaido and Big Mom’s bounties are worth 4 billion Belly.
Even Shirohige could have achieved the same level as Roger, but maybe his bounty is the same as Roger’s as he knew about the world’s secrets and possessed the strongest devil fruit, Gura Gura no Mi. Therefore, when we see Joy Boy’s bounty, there are a few significant factors to consider. He had a substantial impact on the Ancient Kingdom, and the power he possessed with his devil fruit made him a severe threat to the World Government.
Moreover, Joy Boy is the only person to have had a face-to-face confrontation with Im Sama. Although he lost the duel, he still has more value than some of the notorious pirates in One Piece. Hence, it is not surprising that his bounty is worth more than the likes of Yonko.
In conclusion, Eiichiro Oda finally broke his silence about the mystery of Joy Boy in One Piece. Even though Joy Boy is no longer alive, he still holds great significance in the One Piece universe. His impact on the Ancient Kingdom and his story’s relevance to the present-day events in One Piece make him an iconic figure. The fans are hoping to see more about Joy Boy’s backstory in the upcoming episodes of One Piece.
