Warning: This article contains major spoilers for the manga.


Nika is a very important figure in One piece history

Joyboy, Nika, Noah, Pluton, Poseidon, Uranus, Void Century, World Government, Gods, Sworn Enemies of the Gods, Great Cleansing, Ragnarok (Final War)… One Piece has prepared everything to carry out the greatest fiction and incomparable. war of our time 😭 Oda please drive us crazy πŸ˜­πŸ˜­πŸ™πŸΌ https://t.co/LSMDmlJ1Lf

The Sun God is not explicitly mentioned in the story until Wano Country. Even then, very little is known about this particular figure. This article will cover critically important events from the later chapters.


This is what is currently known

Who’s Who was subtly portrayed as the leader of Tobi Roppo for most of Onigashima, it was his fight with Jinbei that made him seem weak, but in reality Who’s Who wasn’t weak at all, Jinbei was too strong! Who’s who was next in line to be the “Jack” of the beast pirates. πŸ’― https://t.co/3tJ6Pxp5kX

Who’s Who is a former member of CP9 and an escaped convict, currently serving the Beasts Pirates. During his fight with Jinbei in the Onigashima attack, Who’s Who briefly discusses the legend of the Sun God.

13 years ago, Who’s Who failed to protect the Gomu Gomu no Mi and was sent to prison. He sought refuge with Nika the Sun God, who was considered a savior figure by the slave population. The guard who told him about this was eventually eliminated by the World Government.

Who’s Who asked Jinbei if the fish-men had any relationship with Nika. Jinbei was very offended by the implications of slavery, so he decided to knock out the former CP9 agent. It is unknown if Jinbei is actually aware of the Sun God, given that his former pirate crew made heavy use of the sun motif.


It turns out that Luffy has become the Sun God himself.

#ONEPIECE1044So you’re telling me that Luffy’s fruit was really a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit – “Nika” Model all this time!!! Now we know why they say that Zoan Mythic Devil Fruits are even rarer than Logias. Those fruits are absolutely hax. https://t.co/2JqiIuOjuY

One piece Chapter 1044 dropped the most shocking reveal in manga history. All this time, Luffy didn’t have the Gomu Gomu no Mi. Instead, he ate the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika.

It is the same Devil Fruit that the World Government wanted to erase from history. The Mythical Zoan fruit has now been fully awakened by Luffy himself. He is currently entering the final stages of his battle with Kaido. Interestingly, the Straw Hat refers to her awakening as Gear Fifth.

This completely redefines what fans knew about the series.


Is Nika supposed to be Joy Boy?

In the last chapter, Zunesha announced that Joy Boy had returned. More than 800 years have passed since his last appearance. This also coincides with the World Government’s attempt to search for Luffy’s Devil Fruit in that same time frame.

Given the facts of One piece Chapter 1044, Nika is most likely supposed to be Joy Boy. This could have major implications as the latter is very relevant to the Void Century. If that’s the case, perhaps Nika is the real name, while Joy Boy is simply the title he went by.
