I am the sun god who will destroy the world! – Loki

The real reason why Loki claims to be the sun god is unknown, however, what fans do know is that Loki killed his own father, King Harald, a few years ago. And when he did that He ate a legendary devil fruit passed down from a royal family in Elbaf. What is this devil fruit and what does it do? It's not known for sure, but fans know for sure that Loki has his powers. As confirmed by the Giant himself. It was probably because of this Devil Fruit that Loki thought he was the Sun God and the Chosen One. Because this legendary Devil Fruit is extremely important.

There is a reason why this fruit was passed down from the royal family of Elbaf and why it has been preserved for centuries. The clear indication here is that this Devil Fruit was recorded for certain people to fulfill a centuries-old promise. which is very similar to Joy Boy and Sun God Nika's concept. Of course, the details of this entire ordeal are still unclear to fans, but One Piece will eventually reveal to fans everything related to Loki's claim in Being the Sun God and at the same time what Oda intended to do, what to do with this Devil Fruit?

Why did Shanks meet Loki in the past?

• Loki and Shanks may have a great history.
• Loki and Shanks met at Elbef recently.

Surprisingly, when people talk about the sun god Shanks came into the picture. Although Shanks' true motivations remain unknown at this point, what fans do know is that he's well aware of the legends surrounding the Sun God. And it is easy to connect with this person. First, fans know that about 12 years ago, Shanks stole the powerful Gomu Gomu no Mi, which, as is clear in the story, Also known as Hito Hito no Mi Model: Nika Recently, he was able to clearly remember Luffy's new form. And he didn't even look surprised at the pure white shadow that Luffy had penetrated. This is another indication of the fact that Shanks knows about Nica. Another interesting thing to keep in mind is Shanks. Even if they are strong enough to attempt to claim it. one piece from the beginning Choose to act only when Luffy awakens his devil fruit and approaches his level. Obviously, Shanks' connection to the sun god was very important. And he has a duty to fulfill.

By nature This means that when Loki consumed his devil fruit and began claiming to be the sun god. Shanks probably had more than one reason to visit him. Loki's power would clearly attract Shanks' attention, as the people of Elbaf believed that Loki had the power to destroy the country. And that seems consistent with being the sun god who will continue to destroy the world. Maybe Shanks wanted to measure Loki himself. and more than that It is possible that Shanks rejected Loki as a sun god. This may be one of the reasons why Loki hates Shanks and holds a grudge against him.

Loki believed himself to be the sun god. But Shanks, when measured in size It would be wise to tell him clearly that even though there were legendary Elbaf Devil Fruits, But he is not the sun god and he is not the person who will go on destroying the world. This is one of the reasons why Loki seems to have such a hostile relationship with people like Shanks.

Does Loki know about Luffy?

Loki had heard about Luffy from Shanks before.

It's possible that Loki already knew about Luffy before meeting him. one piece Chapter 1130 As fans know, Shanks is one of Luffy's biggest fans. And wherever he went he was talked about. This can be seen from Shanks talking about Luffy and Rayleigh. And it was one of the reasons why the Dark King was so excited to meet the Straw Hat Pirates in the first place when he visited the Sabaudi Archipelago. It's possible that Shanks will do just that wherever he goes. Another indication of this is the fact that Shanks mentions Luffy and Dracul. Mihawk when his new bounty poster comes out Not knowing that Mihawk had directly experienced Luffy's character.

No matter what It's entirely possible that when Shanks came to Elbeuf, He made it clear to Loki that he was not the sun god. Even if he can hold up his sleeves. and at the same time There are other people that he believes. He is the sun god and is more suitable for this position. Of course Shanks would name Luffy. This was one of the reasons why Loki was curious about the relationship the two shared in One Piece Chapter 1131. Obviously, when Shanks was mentioned, Loki could feel Luffy's proximity to him. Luffy also attacks Loki. which again clarified to him that they were close to each other. This bond with Loki is very interesting. And it's highly likely that Luffy was brought up in a conversation between Loki and Shanks a long time ago.
