The Greatest Gorosei Theory Ever Made

The Hidden Island

452,912 views

The Gorosei have been some of the longest running villains in the One Piece story. But what is their story? Where did they come from? Who are the Gorosei really? And how did they get their powers?

And with Garling making a sinister entrance in recent chapters - let's theorize about what we can expect from the past, present, and future of these geriatric dictators.

The Celestial Dragons refute any claims made in this video. The individual know as Hidden Island is wanted, dead or alive, for a bounty of 2.5 billion Berry.

Also. The first Strawhat ship is a Lamb that dies to save the lives of the crew. Then new ship is a Lion. Jesus is refered to in the Bible as both the Lamb and the Lion.

Hey, so I clicked on this video and immediately got sent an image of a golden snail and a middle finger emoji from an unknown number. Am I cooked?

Your observations about Garling essentially becoming Imu's first mate and the closeness of the moon to the Earth are really refreshing. I've heard several theories saying that Garling is going to be the start of Imu's downfall, and that he'll even betray Imu.

It's insane how nearly EVERY one of your theories make perfect sense..

@lucasmansilha2541 2 years ago

One thought that makes sense is that Ju Peter was clearly worried with Jay Garcia's replacement because he fears that he'll be replaced too. After all, he's the Godhead of Agriculture and the Holy Land is crumbling to pieces due to the starving situation.

"Soon there won't be any guesing left to do" hits hard crying emoji

there's one more wrench in this theory: during the chapter where we learn about the gomu gomu no mi being a mythical zoan, we see Ju Peter asking the other gorosei about why the government hid the name of the fruit, implying that he's joined the gorosei more recently, despite his scar... evidenced also by his younger appearance compared to the rest

We had a couple of moments where the Gorosei implied they weren't around since the void century: they're only familiar with Emeth from 200 years ago, and their conversation during Luffy's gear 5th.

It seems that everyone have forgotten about the fact that prior the timeskip as Kuma separated the crew, Brook ended up with the “satanist” trying to summon the devil. I always thought that whatever circle they used back then , resembled those of the Gorosei when they got to egghead. You’re the first one finally mentioning it! Thank you !

Garling joining Gorosei signifies that we are heading towards the end of the story. It's in his design.. while looking at him in the eye straight onward, he look's like a star. Just like how the Gorosei are referred to the Five Elder Stars or Planets, so his apperance can be decieving. Initially looking like a star, but turning him and seeing his side profile, his appearance is a crested Moon. We know the importance of the moon within One Piece. The Moon signifies the dawn will come eventually. The light refracted to us signifies the Sun will come again. I think the Gorosei's ranks being infiltrated by a man with Moon symbolism seem's like an omen of how the Gorosei's status is breaking down, and the dawn is closest to the highest ranks of the World Government than ever.

Coming back after 1150... Truly demonic

Man, I’m so happy.
Just watched this weeks episode of One Piece.
Now Hidden drops this.
And I don’t have work tomorrow.

I don't think that the gorosei are original kings, at least not all of them. Saturn didn't know what Emet was when he discovered it 200 years ago, and was clearly quite amazed by the level of technology that Emet was made up of. This likely means Saturn wasn't fully aware of the technology that the ancient kingdom had and therefore was likely born after the void century.

The modified intro with Imu jumpscares was awesome

I have been saying for months that Nika is clearly a reference to the Greek verb νικάω (nikao) which we see rendered as Νικα (Nika) which means "he conquers." Glad somebody finally picked this up.
