Imu, the shadowy figure pulling the strings of the World Government in One Piece, raises countless questions. Who is she really? Why does she harbor such intense hatred for the descendants of Nefertari Lili? And what is her connection to the mysterious Devil Fruits?
Consider this: Imu might be much more than just an immortal sovereign. A captivating theory, inspired by mythological and religious narratives, suggests that she could be the equivalent of Lilith, the first wife of Adam in apocryphal texts. Joy Boy, in this context, would represent Adam, and the Ancient Kingdom, which Luffy and his allies seek to restore, would be a kind of lost Garden of Eden.
The Devil’s Pact and the Obsession with Power
In this perspective, Imu would have been the first to consume a Devil Fruit originating from an extraterrestrial tree, similar to the Divine Tree in Naruto. Two distinct trees would exist: the Tree of Knowledge, the source of ordinary Devil Fruits, and the Tree of Eternal Life, whose fruits grant immortality.
It’s fascinating to note that the consumption of this fruit would have corrupted Imu, making her crave absolute power and domination. Rejected by Joy Boy, horrified by her transformation, she would have vowed to destroy everything he cherished, thus triggering the Great War that obliterated the Ancient Kingdom.

The Gorosei: Immortal Geniuses in Imu’s Service
To establish her reign, Imu assembled an elite team: the Gorosei. Contrary to popular belief, they wouldn’t be the oldest survivors in history, but brilliant minds from different eras who made a pact with Imu. In exchange for immortality, they sacrificed their freedom and submitted to her will.
Saint-Je Garcia Saturn, Saint-Ethanbaron V. Nasujuro, and Saint-Topman Warcury are striking examples of this devil’s pact. Each, with their unique skills, contributes to maintaining the order established by Imu.
Saint Figarland Garling: The Morning Star and Imu’s Enforcer
Saint Figarland Garling, the Morning Star, deserves special attention. His appearance, shifting from the shape of a moon to that of a star, is not insignificant. It symbolizes Lucifer, the fallen angel.
Garling stands out from the other Gorosei by his raw power and unwavering loyalty. He is Imu’s enforcer, capable of annihilating any opposition. It is speculated that he consumed the Human-Human Fruit, Model: Nika, strengthening his connection to the symbol of the Morning Star and granting him near-divine powers.
Fate seems inevitable: Garling, who sacrificed his own son Shanks to prove his loyalty to Imu, will have to face him in a heartbreaking battle. Shanks, representing the archangel Gabriel, the opposite of Lucifer, will have to defeat his father who has become the embodiment of evil.
The Descendants of Nefertari Lili: A Threat to Imu’s Reign
Imu’s hatred towards the descendants of Nefertari Lili can be explained by a fascinating theory. Lili would have been Joy Boy’s second wife, a symbol of hope and rebirth after the fall of the Ancient Kingdom.
Imu, consumed by jealousy and resentment, sees in them Joy Boy’s betrayal and a direct threat to her power. The assassination of King Cobra during the Reverie is proof of this.

Devil Fruits: Symbols of a Fundamental Duality
Devil Fruits themselves seem to be linked to the duality between Imu and Joy Boy. The fruits of the Immortal Tree represent the source of evil, while Joy Boy’s Devil Fruit, now held by Luffy, embodies rebirth and light.
Luffy, as the bearer of this fruit and a descendant of Joy Boy, is not only destined to become the Pirate King. He is the one who must restore balance and defeat the forces of darkness embodied by Imu.
