This article contains spoilers from One Piece’s Elbaf Arc.

The “Elbaf” saga of the popular series “One Piece” has remarkably delved deep into the past of the world, roughly 50 years before the era of Roger. Prior to the time of Roger, the world was ruled by none other than Rocks, and Oda has provided fans with a fascinating glimpse into that period. Fans have eagerly anticipated getting a detailed look at Rocks D. Xebec since he was first introduced, and now, finally, Oda is fulfilling that anticipation.

The tale about the rocks is captivating, but what truly got fans buzzing was Oda unveiling intriguing tidbits regarding the ancient history of this world, dating back approximately 800 years. To top it off, Oda has also disclosed the two most powerful pirates from the Void Century – none other than Joy Boy and Davy D. Jones.

Joy Boy and Davy Jones Were The Strongest Pirates Of The Void Century

  • Joy Boy Was The First Pirate
  • Davy Jones Was Imu’s Enemy

Fans of One Piece are well-acquainted with Joy Boy, a legendary figure from ancient times. During the Egghead Arc, Oda highlighted Joy Boy extensively and even revealed that he was the first person to be called a pirate. Joy Boy lived during the Void Century and hailed from the Ancient Kingdom, which was once incredibly prosperous. He traversed the seas, but his ultimate goal was to unite the world’s people. In order to achieve this unity, Joy Boy faced off against 20 Kings who strongly opposed his idea, leading eventually to the Great War in the One Piece universe.

Simultaneously, Oda shared tidbits about the Davy Family with fans not long ago. It has been unveiled that in the One Piece world, there once lived a legendary pirate named Davy D. Jones, who is the forebearer of both Rocks D. Xebec and Marshall D. Teach. Davy D. Jones posed a significant threat to Imu, which is why Imu is aware of their existence. Moreover, it’s common knowledge among fans that Davy Jones’s legacy is being upheld by Teach.

Very Few Survivors Of The Davy Bloodline Exist

In the realm of One Piece, it’s uncertain how Davy Jones met his fate, but a common tale tells us that he was cursed by a deep-sea deity known as Imu. This curse has kept him at the ocean floor for eternity. Interestingly enough, rumors abound that Davy Jones is still alive, and he holds dominion over all submerged treasures and vessels worldwide.

Despite the fact that his true identity and lineage were wiped out centuries ago, Davy Jones remains such a revered figure among pirates that his name echoes across the seas. Many of his associates have been hunted down relentlessly, with God Valley even launching a specific manhunt for those affiliated with him. Teach is believed to be the last known member of this family who survived such persecution.
