One Pieceis full of mysteries, lore, and unexpected plot twists. Kaido, one of the overarching antagonists in the series, knew about the existence of Joyboy, or the Sun God. But how is that possible?
A fan theory suggests Kaido’s unexpected connection to Elbaph and how he learned about the existence of Joyboy. It is also possible that despite the villain being likely dead, his values might return in another form.
Kaido wanted to be Nika or summon Nika inOne Piece
An interestingfan theorypoints out that Kaido might have visited Elbaph when he was younger. One of his attacks is called Three Realms: Ragnarok, which might be a reference to the three realms of Elbaph and the legend of Ragnarok.
Most people visit Elbaph only to enter the Underworld part of the island without ever making it to the Sun Realm. However, Kaido is one of the few characters who can make it to the Sun Realm without getting scared away by the criminals and beasts of the Underworld.

It is there that Kaido must have learned of Nika, the Sun God. The giants are always talking about the Sun God every chance they get. The Harley texts that have been passed down for generations have countless interpretations of the Sun God.
According to Jarul, all that they know for sure is that Nika heralds great change, which is why the rulers tend to fear his return. His appearance means that the world order is about to change.
On one hand, he has been referred to as the savior of worlds and on the other, as the great destroyer. The theory claims that Kaido himself wanted to become Nika at first, but when he couldn’t, he wanted to create a Joyboy.
This is why he dominated and exploited Wano to speed up the arrival of Nika, who would inevitably clash with Kaido, the ruling power. When he asks Luffy what kind of world he wants to create, he realizes that Luffy is Joyboy and that Nika has returned.

Kaido wanted to be the dark version of Nika, who would change the world. However,now that he is most likely dead, who can end up being the dark version of Nika? The one who can be seen causing destruction in Elbaph and laughing uncontrollably is Loki, the despised prince. He himselfclaims to be the Sun Godwho will bring about the end of the world or Ragnarok.
Luffy has already identifiedLoki to be a good person. The Straw Hat might be tone-deaf, childish, and a lot of other things, but he is a good judge of character. Mosa/Shaggy has already stated that Loki uses harsh words to hide the kindness inside of him.

Thus, Loki will attempt to be the dark version of Nika. However, he might become Luffy’s ally in the long run. Since he is actually a good person who seems to be wronged, he might support Luffy’s aim of changing the world. This topping of the pre-existing rulers might be the actual Ragnarok.
