Kouzuki Toki

What happens to toki’s devil fruit after she died..??

Let me preface this post with this: I personally don't believe that when Luffy and co get to Laugh Tale, it's going to be one massive info dump. Rather, I think Oda is leaving breadcrumbs and puzzle pieces for the readers that will come together in our heads when they reach Laugh Tale and we'll be like "OH MY GOD! THAT'S IT!" Otherwise, the final island is just gonna be exposition for however many chapters it is.

Now with that being said, I have a feeling that one of the breadcrumbs Oda will drop before Laugh Tale will be the name of the ancient kingdom and it will happen during Wano. Why do I think that? Well, Wano is the convergence point for some of the oldest things in the world of One Piece. We have Zunesha, Toki, the Poneglyphs, the Ancient Weapons and Wano itself which has all but been stated to have been a major player during the Void Century.

Zunesha

Zunesha is the oldest living creature in the world of One Piece. We know it's sentient and therefore, it must know things, specifically, everything that has happened in the 1000 years it's been alive. In chapter 1040, we learn that Zunesha was a companion or nakama (depending on the translation?) of Joyboy's. This makes Zunesha easily the most concrete proof besides the Poneglyphs of what happened during the Void Century and since he is capable of speaking to people, the greatest source of lore I think we've gotten in the story.

If Zunesha is telling Momo that he was a companion of Joyboy and Joyboy is closely associated to the Ancient Kingdom, I don't see how Zunesha doesn't know its name. It's entirely possible then that Momo has already learned it from their conversation in 1040 or even their conversation back during the Zou Arc.

Toki

Now according to the story, Toki was born around 830 years ago (during the Void Century) and was part of the Amatsuki daimyo family of Wano BUT she had never been to her homeland. Hence, why she was curious about it when she first met Oden and why she was traveling through time to get there. So what does this mean? It means that during the Void Century, Toki was somewhere else besides Wano. Where was that somewhere else? Likely, the ancient kingdom.

830 years ago was right at the tail-end of the Void Century which means that the great war that established the World Government was either ongoing, about to begin OR finishing up right before Toki went forward in time. Now we can assume she wasn't an ally of the WG because why would she travel in time if her side won? So it's highly likely that she was an ally of the Ancient Kingdom and therefore, knows its name.

I think it's possible Toki told Oden the name of the Ancient Kingdom and it may even be in his logbook.

Poneglyphs

Wano is the homeland of the Kozuki Clan, the inventors of the Poneglyphs and we know that there are at least 3 there. The Road Poneglyph that Kaido possesses, the blue one in the Skull Dome that Law found and the blue one in Orochi's castle that Brook found. Considering Wano and the Kozuki are so closely tied with the Void Century, I figure the two blue Poneglyphs have some major lore written on them and so far, the only person capable of reading them hasn't gotten to take a look at them yet. Which leads to my next point...

Robin

This is also why I think think the capture of Robin has been played up so much during the Wano Arc. As far as we know, Robin doesn't know the Ancient Kingdom's real name but we know she was a scholar of Ohara. We also know that the WG was so scared of letting someone even speak the name that they silenced Prof Clover on the spot.

I speculate that the WG wants Robin so badly, not only because of the Ancient Weapons but because if she learns the name of the Ancient Kingdom, with her Oharan knowledge, she is going to be able to put some pieces together relatively quickly. After the raid is said and done, Robin will get a chance to look at those Poneglyphs and maybe even solve a big piece of the True History puzzle.

Conclusion

So Oda has written in three ways for the SHs (and us) to learn the name of the Ancient Kingdom during Wano: Through Zunesha, through Toki mostly by way of Oden's logbook and the Poneglyphs on Wano when Robin gets a chance to read them. The last one is especially important since based on how Luffy behaved on Sabaody, I don't know if he'd want to learn anything from Zunesha or Oden's logbook. If the SHs find out the name of the Ancient Kingdom in Wano, then it will be once Robin gets a chance to look at those Poneglyphs.....

So far we haven't seen a lot of details about the time devil fruit but holy shit does it have the powers to break the world.

Sending people ahead in time is okay and all but what happens if a devil fruit user is sent ahead in time, like a century or whatever, will their devil fruit be missing for the entire century then? Will it respawn? I don't know if it can send someone back in time but what if you send a devil fruit user to the past, when someone else was the user of the devil fruit? Will two fruits exist at the same time? If the time traveller dies, will their devil fruit spawn in the future or in the past? If it respawns in the time they were originally from, is it possible that if kinemon dies now, the fruit will go back 20 years in time and there will be 2 users in the current timeline? So many questions.

I think maybe the fruit only allows you to go ahead in time, and the fruit will only reappear in the future the user dies in, being completely gone during the time between the time leap. Maybe this was the method used to steal the gomu gomu no mi from the world government? Cuz obv the wouldn't just walk around the world with a fruit as important as that.

Remember how it is pointed out a few times in One Piece that Joyboy shall return (Fishman Island: The Promised Ship, and Oden's past: Voice of the Sea Kings)?

What do think about this theory: Joyboy lived about 800 years ago, in the blank century... We'll, so did Toki (Oden's wife) and she travelled to the future.

Could it be possible that Joyboy came with her in the future and might be hiding somewhere waiting for the right time to appear?

I'm open to suggestions on this theory, any comments are appreciated.

Thank you.

In manga latest chapter, oden show off! I doubt oda making like time travel scene.

Maybe toki will be there anyhow and perhaps some dead character will appear! idk but oda been doing that somehow...
