Summary
One Piecehas inadvertently confirmed that oneStraw Hat has known about Luffy ’s biggest secretall along . The existence of Sun God Nika is a secret hold back under smashed wrap by the World Government . Despite witnessingLuffy ’s Gear Five transformation in Wano , many of the Straw Hats only seemed to learn the truth about Nika at Egghead . However , the latest episode suggests Jinbe may be an exclusion , hinting at a connective between the Sun Pirates and Nika .
Episode # 1100 of One Piece register Luffy transforming into Gear Five on Egghead to battle Lucci . This scene was originally not included in the manga , which cut now to an already transformed Luffy wreaking havoc in the background as Jinbe and Chopper operate aside with Bonney and Atlas . The anime , however , shows Jinbe and Chopper ’s reaction to the transformation , andJinbe oddly recognizes Luffy as the Warrior of Liberation despite being his first time seeing Gear Five .
Jinbe could not have link the dit so quickly based on the minuscule that Who ’s Who told him about Nika , which intimate that Jinbe may have already lie with about the fable of Sun God Nika , his appearing , and his abilities from the very offset . As Jinbe did not see Luffy in action at law on Onigashima , finallyseeing Gear Five on Egghead may have led to him making the connection much like Vegapunk did .
One Piece reveals one unexpected character reference may have bed Luffy was Nika long before Luffy discovered his Gear 5 .
One Piece Confirms Jinbe Knew About Sun God Nika Before Wano
Episode #1100, “Powers on a Different Level! Luffy vs. Lucci!”
Until now the coarse intellect was that Jinbe had first learned of Nika ’s existence from Who ’s Who in chapter # 1018 . However , Who ’s Who simply put forward that Nika was a warrior who release slave . Though reader are demo a silhouette of Nika , Jinbe is n’t severalize much else about the fabled build , what he looks like , how he fights or even anything about his powers , as Who ’s Who himself does not own this information .
Hence , it is unusual that Jinbe would take one look at Gear Five ’s coming into court and straight off make the connection toSun God Nika . Luffy himself is blissfully unaware of the truth about his devil yield , or the existence of Nika , much less what the word Nika even have in mind , as seen in the in style chapters . Hence , logic dictate thatJinbe already bang much more about Nika long before Wano .
This could also explain why Who ’s Who approach Jinbe about it in the first place , shedding new brightness level on their conversation . In chapter # 1018 , Jinbe even ask Who ’s Who why he would need him of all multitude about Nika . Who ’s Who claims this is because Jinbe led the Sun Pirates , a crew made up of former fishman slaves who may have a hard connection to Nika in retrospect .
The Sun Pirates May Have Been Inspired by Sun God Nika
Chapter # 1018 tease this connective between the Sun Pirates and Nika through the careful use of bluff text during the dialogue between Jinbe and Who ’s Who . Jinbe even gets visibly enraged during the conversation and while it seems that he is put off by Who ’s Who ’s remarks on the fishmen ’s account of slavery , it is possible his response could also be colligate to the reference of Nika .
Episode # 1040 , which adapts Jinbe ’s fight against Who ’s Who , is even titled " The Enraged Jinbe " highlight the Straw Hat ’s uncharacteristic anger .
Jinbe appear to be plenty angry even before Who ’s Who bring up anything about the fishmen or the Sun Pirates andnever instantaneously denies not jazz anything about Nika . Instead , Jinbe simply arrogate he has nothing to say to the likes of Who ’s Who and defeats him , warn him against poking into chronicle without being prepared to face the consequences of doing so . Jinbe ’s words could imply he recognize some part of Sung God Nika ’s history as well .
pay that the Sun Pirates were made up entirely of slaves freed by Fisher Tiger and that their entire purpose revolved around freedom , it is possible that Fisher Tiger , who started the crew , could have been inspired by the Legend of Nika . Fisher Tiger emulate the legendary Warrior of Liberationin freeing the slaves at Mariejois , and it can not be a coincidence that he take the sun as the symbol of his plagiarist grouping .
More significantly , Fisher Tiger was once a slave to the World Nobles himself . Hecould have heard of Nika from the other slave in Mariejoismuch like Who ’s Who did from a guard while in poky . Bartholomew Kuma ’s flashbackraises the interesting possible action that Kuma ’s parent may have spread the legend of Nika among the slaves at Mariejois , which was then go by down among the slaves in the Holy Land over the years , finally reaching Fisher Tiger and even Jinbe .
Overall , though they may be Luffy ’s bounteous confidant , the Straw Hats knew picayune about the significance of Gear Five or even Sun God Nika until the Egghead Arc , makingJinbe the first to know Luffy ’s biggest mystery . Although the panorama is nowhere to be meet in the manga , it does excuse many mystery story , particularly Jinbe ’s leftover attitude against Who ’s Who . The revealing also strengthens the link between Nika and the legendary Sun Pirates , who could end up being more significant asOne Pieceprogresses .
