Lore & Background
Imu, the hidden ruler behind the World Government, holds an intense hatred for Joy Boy and for everyone who carries the 'Will of D'. On Fish-Man Island, the Poneglyph in the Sea Forest carries a letter of apology from a man of the surface known as Joy Boy. Emet, the legendary 'Iron Giant' robot on Egghead built 900 years ago, was Joy Boy's friend, and the elephant Zunesha was his companion. After the Egghead incident, Imu kills the elder Saturn for letting 'Joy Boy' escape.
