The Concept of Haki Existed During the Void Century | The Meaning of “Knotting” Haki
The Meaning of “Knotting” Haki
Joy Boy mentioned to Emet that he had “knotted” his greatest Haki within Emet’s body. The phrase “knotting Haki” is unprecedented and raises questions about its meaning.
When Emet released Joy Boy’s Haki, a string-like object was attached to Emet’s body, and when it snapped, the Haki was unleashed. Did Joy Boy somehow weave his Haki into this string?
It’s hard to believe that even the strongest Haki could remain embedded in an object for nearly a thousand years. This suggests that there was some advanced technique for manipulating Haki that modern users haven’t reached yet, or perhaps Haki can even be materialized.
Alternatively, Joy Boy might have used the power of Nika to achieve this. Luffy, using Nika’s power, created goggles from his hair. Perhaps objects created with Nika’s power naturally retain Haki more effectively.
Joy Boy might have used Nika’s power to infuse his hair with his strongest Haki, then created the string to give to Emet. The image of a string connecting two things could symbolize the bond between Joy Boy and his comrades, suggesting that Joy Boy might have given strings to other allies as well.
I also wonder if Luffy is somehow connected to Joy Boy through such a string. It seems too coincidental that Luffy ate the Devil Fruit that harbors Nika’s power. Perhaps the fruit was drawn to Luffy through Joy Boy’s string.
I’ve speculated that the string might be a product of Nika’s power, but I believe it holds deeper significance. Joy Boy may have predicted the arrival of his successor because he was already connected to Luffy in the future through this string.
This could mean that the string is also closely tied to the Will of D.
This concludes the article. Thank you very much for reading it to the end!
