The day of the disaster. One Piece fans are looking back with a flashback to see one of the most important adventure events. Gol D. Roger is gathering the Poneglyphs and on his way he meets up with Neptune who tells him about the prophecy of Shirley, a Nodachi mermaid who lives on Gyojin Island. According to this prophecy, King Neptune will have a daughter in 10 years That will be the weapon that will destroy everything. And not only this, but in that chapter the pirate finds the One Piece and baptizes the island that nobody has reached in 800 years.
There they discover the true story of the Empty Century, the meaning of the name D. and other One Piece theories that are unanswered. But also in the last chapter we talk about successor of Gol D. Roger. In the depths the reunion between the two kings, mentioning the King of the Pirates and the King of the Seas. While Roger warns that «There are 10 years left before he is born and another 15 years to get older». And for a moment he jokes about the possibility of his son being the next Pirate King. "Those voices … Surely they were telling the truth, someone is going to be born and will surpass us all!", he claimed.
It is clear that whoever it is, he will meet Poseidon when he is born. And by the words of Gol D. Roger it seems that this will not happen in 25 years at least. Given that Luffy is currently 19 years old, the rubber boy fits as the possible successor and the series would end in 5 years as Eiichiro Oda wants. Do you think all the clues point to Luffy as King of the Pirates?
