Hello!
Pirates are currently fighting for the “Four Poneglyphs,” red stones that are said to indicate the whereabouts of the One Piece.
Hinokizu" is said to have one of the poneglyphs.
However, at this point, we do not know the details of who he is.
Who is this “Hinokizu”? Let’s find out!
To be honest, I think it might be a new character with an eye patch, or it might be a dragon or Sauro, but I think you will be disappointed if I write such an article, so I will try to give you the most interesting discussion I can think of.
Hinokizu Clues
There are two major places where the word “Hinokizu” appears, so let’s check them out.
First of all, here is what Kid said after receiving a copy of Poneglyph from Law in episode 1056, at the port near the departure from Wanokuni.
Killer says, “We need to get serious.” Kid replies, “You want me to find Hinokizu? You’re asking me to find Hinokizu! Kid says, “You want me to look for Hinokizu?
The word “Hinokizu” appeared here for the first time.
Then, in Episode 1081, it appears in a conversation between Blackbeard Pirates and Kuzan.
Jesus Burgess puts it this way.
“There are four important red Poneglyphs in the world.
Two of them are said to be in the possession of Kaidou and Big Mamu, but I can’t find the other two.
One of them is said to be in Hinokizu’s possession.”
At this time, the only information we have on “Hinokizu” is the description given in this scene.
There is abnormally little information on this pirate despite the fact that he is currently alive.
Hinokizu’s Conditions
As we have shown, there were several clues.
I will go on to summarize this and introduce the five conditions that I have found.
Must be a man.
From the words of Lafitte in Blackbeard Pirates, it is very likely that he is a man.
It is possible that the gender of the character is changed by Emporio Ivankov’s “Horu Horu no Mi” or Doc Q’s “Shiku Shiku no Mi” ability, but if these are excluded, the character is a male.
The information seems to be broad in scope and quite important.
This narrows it down to about half of the total population.
I have Poneglyph.
It is believed that they have the stone itself, not a copy.
This Poneglyph was found when Roger’s pirates went to Fish-Men Island in Oden’s past edition.
At the time, it was placed alongside a stone with an apology from Joy Boy.
But when Robin visits again, there is only a stone with an apology from Joy Boy, and Poneglyph has disappeared without a trace.
It is very likely that Hinokizu took it away in some way.
Also, although the cover illustration is not directly related to the main story, it shows Zimbabwe carrying the poneglyph itself in volume 78, episode 778.
This means that it is not impossible for the Fish-Men tribe, the Giant Tribe, or someone with comparable arm strength to carry it.
The power to create a giant vortex
Lafite said that he could be a “Devil Fruit”, but another example is Hinokizu’s ability to create a whirlpool directly in the ocean.
Or it is possible that they are using marine creatures such as giant monstrous marine animals like kraken to escort the ship.
The ship is pitch black.
The fact that the entire ship is completely black, not just parts of it, is a significant feature.
Wind Granma of the Revolutionary Armed Forces is the only one that falls under this category so far in the work.
Name
The word “Hinokizu” can be used in various ways.
In the Japanese version, everything was in katakana.
In Japanese manga, it is very strange that the word “Hinokizu” does not use Kanji, and it seems to have a meaning!
What is Hinokizu?
Sorry for the wait. Here is the most interesting answer I came up with.
My guess is that Hinokizu is really “Captain Yorki”.
Who is it? If you are wondering, please read this article first.
The captain of the Rumba-pirates, where Brook was, is alive.
He is the captain of Rumbar Pirates, the ship that Brooke was on once before his death.
His name is Yorki and he is commonly known as Calico’s Yorki.
The Lumber pirates were involved in a dispute with other pirates in the Florian Triangle, and the Lumber pirates were wiped out before Brook’s eyes.
However, my expectation was that Captain Cara this Yorki would be alive.
I think this Captain Yorki is “Hinokizu”.
Reasons to believe it is Captain Yorki
There are several reasons to believe that “Hinokizu” is Captain Yorki.
An important point is that it is believed to be modeled after the Disney movie “Pirates of the Caribbean.
The author, Mr. Oda, is a fan of Disney movies, and many of the stories and characters in One Piece are modeled after “Pirates of the Caribbean.
The model for the black ship is the Black Pearl.
The black ship that “Hinokizu” is supposed to be on is a pirate ship.
One thing to consider here is that Captain Jack Sparrow’s ship, synonymous with pirates, was also pitch black.
The Black Pearl.
Hinokizu and the pirates of the Caribbean must have some kind of relationship.
The relationship between Jack and Captain Yorki of Calico
In my previous article, I explained that “Captain Yorki of Calico” was modeled after “Jack of Calico,” who was active in the Caribbean in the 18th century.
His name is “Jack”.
It is also said that “Jack Sparrow,” the captain of the Black Pearl, was modeled after “Calico’s Jack.
The Giant Vortex
Lafite explained that Hinokizu was attacking with a giant vortex.
Here we will consider this giant vortex for a moment.
First of all, I conclude that the huge vortex is caused by the “Fish-Men”.
Again, “Pirates of the Caribbean” is relevant here. The “Flying Dutchman” ghost ship that appeared in “Pirates of the Caribbean” is said to have been handed down to a real-life “Vander Decken” in the mid-18th century.
In fact, there is a character of the same name as “Vander Decken” in One Piece.
Here it is.
This character is Fish-Men, a catshark, captain of the Flying Pirates.
The word “flying” and the fact that they are “Fish-Men” suggest that “Vander Decken” may be related to Hinokizu in some way.
Also, there is a description like this in volume 9.
This is a scene of Fish-Men’s Hachi diving underwater and moving the reef to create a whirlpool.
When the reef hit the middle of a strong tidal current, an eddy suddenly appeared.
This seems to be a real phenomenon, but it tells the reader that “the power of Fish-Men can generate a vortex.
This leads us to believe that the black boat has Fish-Men on board, and it makes sense that the last Poneglyph was from Fish-Men Island.
The secret behind the “Hinokizu
Here is a little explanation in Japanese.
In Japanese, the word “fire” can be written as follows.
I know it’s difficult with letters from other countries, but please remember a few of these letters!
When we think of “fire scars,” we tend to think of “burns” and other injuries.
But maybe not.
Finally, take a look at the face of Captain Yorki of Calico, whom I have described so far.
You have a “fire scar”! But it doesn’t look like a burn.
