There are some mysteries about Zunesha in One Piece that keep fans curious. For example in chapter 821, Nekomamushi once explained that a long time ago since ancient times the elephant committed a felony. From then on, the punishment was to always walk like that without doing anything else until ordered otherwise, not even resisting when attacked. The proof is that even in chapter 821, the elephant is in danger, but it needs an order from Momonosuke to attack again. And so far we still don’t know what wrong Zunisha did and how long she has to suffer.
So who is Zunesha in One Piece? One Piece chapter 1040 gave a hint to this.
1. Momonosuke has a surprising revelation in chapter 1040
At the end of One Piece chapter 1040, Yamato talked to Momonosuke. Momonosuke then told Yamato that Zunesha was nearby. Yamato recognizes Zunesha as the elephant that appeared in Oden’s diary. Momo then explains that Zunesha is Joy Boy’s comrade, and that he committed a felony 800 years ago. As it turns out, Zunesha is actually related to Joy Boy.
2. Zunesha was seen earlier in chapter 1037
Zunesha is actually getting closer to Wano in the last few chapters. In chapter 1037, we saw Zunesha appear behind the World Government ship. And this remains a question mark, whether World Government ships will attempt to attack Zunesha.
3. It’s interesting that Zunesha is approaching Wano
In chapter 972, Oden once said that Wano and the rest of the world are waiting for someone. When that character appeared after 800 years, Oden felt that Wano should be ready to welcome and cooperate with this character. In that chapter, Oden told Toki that 20 years later there will be a great war. The main characters of the great war will probably be the ones who will defeat Kaido. And that’s when the new Joy Boy appeared. We’ve clearly seen how much Oden anticipates the arrival of the new Joy Boy.
So it’s interesting that Zunesha is approaching Wano now, as the battle for Onigashima is coming to an end. Especially after it was revealed that it used to be Joy Boy’s teammate.
Will Zunesha’s arrival signal the arrival of a new Joy Boy? And will the new Joy Boy end Zunesha’s punishment?
