Joy Boy

Joy Boy was a man from the surface world who left at the last island of the Grand Line the treasure of One Piece and played an important role in the history of Fish-Man Island. He was first mentioned on the Ryugu Poneglyph read by Nico Robin while at the Sea Forest. It has been implied that Joy Boy was an extremely relevant figure of the Void Century, with Gol D. Roger declaring that he wished the two could have lived during the same period upon learning the true history on Laugh Tale.

History


Around 900 years ago, at the beginning of the period known as the Void Century, the residents of Fish-Man Island made a promise to a great man known as Joy Boy. He attempted to raise Noah with Poseidon's aid, but he broke his promise to Fish-Man Island. However, Fish-Man Island promised that they would keep Noah safe until a certain day came. Joy Boy left a letter in the form of poneglyph to Poseidon, apologizing for breaking his end of the bargain.

Fish-Man Island's half of the promise was almost broken during the events of the Fish-Man Island Arc, when Monkey D. Luffy was asked to protect the island no matter what the cost, even if it meant that Noah had to be destroyed in the process.

Before Luffy could destroy the ship completely, Noah was stopped by a group of Sea Kings that were summoned unknowingly by Shirahoshi, thus saving Fish-Man Island and maintaining the nation's promise to Joy Boy. However, the ship was still heavily damaged. The Sea Kings then took the ship to the Sea Forest, where they planned to fix it.

At some point, Joy Boy came across an island, which would later be named Laugh Tale by Gol D. Roger, and left behind a treasure.
