One Piece theories
show their evidence.

Every argument here carries the chapter it was read off. Readers rate how strongly each one proves the claim, and the theory's number follows the evidence — not the loudest thread.

Argument against · canon ×1.0

Rayleigh stated in chapter 507, that when they reach Laughtale, they might come to a different conclusion than the roger pirates. If it was merely the arrival of the people of the ancient kingdom, then there would be no conclusion to draw. Roger was dying and couldnt have waited. Rayleigh saying they reached a conclusion implies that they DID have an option they couldve taken at that point.

Ch. 507

Argument for · canon ×1.0

Oden knows that the person who beats Kaido will have to arrive in 20 years because he knows that that is when the people are expected to arrive.

Chapter 1191 — LOKI IS HERE

The landscape shifts to a glowing mountainous realm as the creature recalls past events. Elsewhere at the Owl Library, the Straw Hat crew reacts to an approaching threat.

Canon outweighs speculation

A rating is multiplied by the weight One Piece gives that source type, so a theory built on guesses never catches one built on chapters.
