Was Joy Boy the Man Who Could Not Become King!? Who Was the King of the Ancient Kingdom?
Who Was the King of the Ancient Kingdom?
Regarding the idea that Joy Boy was the man who could not become king, there is a possibility that he wasn’t the king of the ancient kingdom. In that case, who was the king? It makes one wonder…
There’s also a possibility that there was no king, and the place was simply called a kingdom for lack of a better term. In Wano Country, they have a shogun instead of a king, and the leader of the ancient kingdom might have been a president or prime minister, leading to differences in how countries perceive governance, which could have led others to mistakenly call it a kingdom…
If the kingdom’s name is revealed, it might become clearer. While it’s possible that there was no king, it seems more likely that there was one, given that it’s called a kingdom. So, who was the king?
Personally, I think the ancient kingdom might have been a country of the Buccaneers. The word “buccaneer” means pirate, and as I’ve written before, if the Buccaneers were a seafaring people without a homeland, then their territory would be the sea. If that were the case, the kingdom would be enormous, justifying the term “ancient kingdom.”
Moreover, this could explain why the World Government, which deemed them a slave class by birth, would have led them to extinction due to such severe persecution. The Buccaneers are described as a species with strength surpassing humans and are a rare breed. The Lunarians and the Three-Eyed Tribe, as well as other rare species, might have formed a union that started the ancient kingdom, which expanded by including human nations that resonated with their ideology.
If the Buccaneers sailed the world, connecting people yearning for change, and founded a nation, it wouldn’t be surprising if the king or head of state was a Buccaneer. As the Sun God Nika and a pirate, Joy Boy might have become the ally of those seeking change and liberation, destined to become the “king of the land.” The “two kings” might be more accurately described as true gods, and perhaps Imu tried to become one?
