After gaining Nika's power, Joy Boy gradually came to be worshipped as a god by the people of the seas.
Everyone knew that wherever the drums of revolution sounded, change would follow, and people would be able to smile because of it.
That man was like the sun itself, bringing light to the world and illuminating all darkness.
"Sun God."
Bright said calmly, "That was what people called him back then."
"The Sun God, Nika?"
Aokiji frowned deeply. "Now that you mention it, it feels like I've heard that name somewhere before."
"The World Government has always suppressed that name."
Zephyr spoke calmly at this moment. "Anyone who tried to investigate that name was executed."
"Is that so?"
Aokiji nodded lightly.
That was not surprising at all.
"However, while Joy Boy was bringing liberation to every corner of the world, the Lunarians did not stand still either."
Bright said, "They began using force to conquer the nations across the seas."
"And so, for the first time in history, the world gathered into two vast factions."
"Joy Boy and his companions, who wanted to liberate the entire world, fought a protracted war in that era against the Lunarians, who wanted to rule the entire world and call themselves gods."
"Even if Joy Boy and his companions possessed the power of Devil Fruits, that still shouldn't have been enough to stand against that thing, right?" Aokiji asked with a frown, clearly puzzled.
Having personally experienced the power of the weapon once wielded by the Lunarian Tribe, Aokiji did not believe their predecessors from eight hundred years ago had been vastly stronger than them.
"That was because the remaining scientists of Birka also created a superweapon for Joy Boy."
Bright said, "In Water 7, the scientists and shipwrights there built the strongest warship."
