Many people have slept on Stussy, thinkingof her as an irrelevant minor character, but what if I told you she’s actually far moreimportant to the story than anyone ever thought, being an undercover triple agent working forthe Revolutionary Army, a former member of the Rocks Pirates, and the user of the mythologicaldevil fruit Bat Bat Fruit, Model: Succubus. And beyond that what if I told you that thereare other clones of former Rocks Pirates, including Jewelry Bonney being the clone ofBig Mom that Kuma adopted? Welcome to Chapter Secrets, where we breakdown all the details in every One Piece chapter. Let’s begin! Now, we find ourselves in a really peculiarsituation in Egghead, as on one side we have.
A traitor among our midst of those found atthe Labophase who disabled the shield of the Frontier Dome, but on the other hand therealso seems to be a traitor amongst the enemies, as Vegapunk claims to have another ally onthe island. Now for the traitor on our side, given howit can’t be either the Straw Hats or Bonney, it would have to be one of the Vegapunks. And while there’s several possible options,the simplest answer could actually be Caribou. Caribou is desperately trying to escape eversince Zoro dumped him off the island, so it makes sense he would’ve tried to disablethe Frontier Dome to try and desperately escape. It’s possible that rather than disable itmanually through the control center he might’ve.
Tried to just jam the machine with his fruitor something, causing the systems to briefly go down. However, on the opposite end is what interestsus a lot more, being the ally on the other side. So basically, in order to escape Egghead,Vegapunk Pythagoras mentioned how technically they now have an ally on Egghead who couldassist with their getaway. Edison however brought this into question,claiming that their ally would lose their cover and cause them to be persecuted by theGovernment, but Stella simply gave up and called the ally to ask for help.
But who is this ally? Well, as absurd as it sounded at first, Ithink it’s actually Stussy, and the newest chapter seems to support this claim. Now I’ve been saying this online ever sinceChapter 1071 was out, but once you start thinking about it, Stussy makes a lot of sense to bethis mysterious ally. For starters, there’s really not that manyother characters who are on the island who could serve as allies, as not counting theStraw Hats, Bonney, and the Punks, we only have Sentomaru, who is kinda busy taking anap, Caribou, and CP0. And considering that Lucci and Kaku are mostcertainly not the ally, that makes Stussy.
The perfect candidate. There’s also an important detail that easilygets lost in translation, being that in Japanese the ally speaks in very polite language, somethingthat wouldn’t fit many other characters who speak more crassly (sorry Scopper Gabanfans), but would perfectly align with someone more refined like Stussy. Beyond that though, it’s Stussy’s deepconnection with Vegapunk that makes this allegiance all the more evident. You see it’s become evident that Stussyhas some familiarity with Vegapunk, as she mentioned how Egghead was nostalgic to her,meaning she was there long ago, and she seemed.
To be familiar with a lot of the island’stechnology and systems, showing a great deal of technical knowledge. This connection runs deeper in the fact thatshe was very well acquainted with Du Feld, the funder of MADS back in the day as revealedin the cover story. The two of them seemed fairly acquainted witheach other, but specifically when Stussy commented on how Pudding reminds her of her youngerself, Du Feld commented that being decades ago; this not only indicates that Stussy isa lot older than she appears to be, with even her Vivre Card databook entry listing herage simply as “SECRET”, but also that Du Feld knew her decades ago.
Considering that the MADS were active duringa time from around 25 to 35 years ago, it would make sense if they knew each other fromback then. Particularly since the latest cover storyshowed the original five members of MADS, including a woman with short blonde hair andstockings just like Stussy. And if she was Vegapunk’s ally today, thenit makes sense Oda is keeping her identity covered in this cover page to not give toomany clues. And furthermore, her suspicion makes a lotof sense because if you remove the t from Stussy’s name her name becomes “sussy”…okay maybe not that last one. But yeah, if Stussy was a member of MADS thatlater when absorbed into the Government decided.
To become a CP0 agent, it would make senseif she actually maintained her allegiance to Vegapunk and infiltrated as a Cipher Policeagent. In fact it’s possible that given how Vegapunkis secretly working for Dragon and the Revolutionary Army, that similarly Stussy is also actingas a sleeper agent for the Revolutionary Army. This would be a very fitting plot twist, becauseStussy was introduced as an Underworld Emperor, being known as the Queen of the Pleasure District,but was revealed to actually be a double agent working as a CP0 member, something I alsopredicted back in the day actually. So it would be fitting if all along she wasactually a triple agent working for the Revolutionaries, bringing her story all around.
This would explain why she kept allowing Kakuto fall into the traps, as well as why she also pressured Lucci to wait on orders fromthe Marines before going after Vegapunk. This might even explain why she was the onewho tipped Morgans about Luffy being the mastermind of Whole Cake Island since he is Dragon’sson. She’s been undercover for a long time feedinginfo from within the Government’s most secret services to Vegapunk and Dragon, which iswhy Edison suggested to not blow her cover that easily, but now she’s switching sidesback again when Stella requested her help to escape. And through the newest chapter, we can alsoget an idea of what Stussy’s connection.
To MADS is, being in reality a clone of MissBuckingham Stussy. Miss Buckingham Stussy, now more commonlyknown as Miss Buckin, is the mother of former Shichibukai Edward Weevil, and self-proclaimedlover of Whitebeard, claiming Weevil to be their child. It’s of course brought into question onif the two actually had Weevil together, given how she seems to be taking advantage of herkid, but I wouldn’t be surprised if Weevil is the legitimate son of Whitebeard, justnot her own. But beyond that she is also a former memberof the Rocks, as Marco confirmed in Chapter 909 that around 40 years ago Miss Buckin wason the same crew as Whitebeard, which would’ve.
Been the Rocks back then, which indicatesthat at least in her prime she was likely very powerful to be on that crew. This would explain why she was able to defeatan awakened Kaku so easily, which by the way would be a really cute detail since in thechapter when Stussy first debuted, she had a drink from a screaming giraffe. This isn’t all however, as to top all thisoff Stussy can be seen with bat-like wings, which makes me believe that she actually haseaten a Mythological type Zoan, the Batto Batto no Mi, or Bat Bat Fruit, Model: Succubus. I don’t think that she’s eaten a vampirefruit, since that’s already been eaten by.
A non-canon character and Oda usually likesto name canon and non-canon fruits that have the same ability with different names forthe sake of continuity, but in this case a succubus is also more fitting for Stussy. The succubus is a demon of folklore who isusually depicted in its modern form as a seductive woman with bat-like wings that seduces mento devour their blood. This blood allows a succubus to always remainwith a young appearance, which allows her to keep seducing men even after long years. This may actually be the secret behind Stussy’sown incredibly youthful age. After all Du Feld already suggested she’slived for several decades, which she must.
Have if she was a member of MADS, but if sheis a clone of Buckin then she would have to be around 76 years old like she is right now. But the reason she manages to look this youngis because of her Succubus fruit, which being a mythological fruit it would have specialproperties, in this case granting Stussy perennial youth (though not immortality, as she likelycan still die, just not of old age), as well as allowing her to suck blood out of her enemies,causing them to faint. This would also likely explain the name Buckingham,as it’s likely a reference of Buckingham Palace, the seat of British royalty, withStussy possibly referencing Queen Elizabeth II and how she was famously known to havelived a very long time, having had one of.
The longest rules of a queen in history andoften joked of being perennial youthful. However, if that’s the case then it wouldsuggest that Miss Buckin does not have the fruit, and that it wasn’t inherited withthe clone and its bloodline elements, as otherwise Miss Buckin would also look fairly young now,unless the young age is caused by something else instead. Meaning that the Stussy clone was likely fedthe fruit after she was born. Much like Stussy we’ve seen in several instancesnow that living beings can be cloned, what with the Kuma clones, the Germa army, theSeraphim, or someone like Stussy being the first in this long line.
The fact that she is referred to as the No.1clone that MADS created makes me wonder if more exist out there among all the characterswe know, particularly other clones of the ROCKS pirates. A likely chance could be Edward Weevil, whomaybe is a partially failed clone of Whitebeard rather than his kid, who maybe Miss Buckinmanaged to get in exchange for providing her own clone to MADS. But on the other, there’s a certain characterwho comes to mind, someone who is on Egghead right now and very relevant to the currentplot… Jewelry Bonney.
You see, if you’ve been in the fandom longenough, you may recall that the fandom has had a big obsession with the theory that Bonneyis actually Big Mom’s daughter for a very long time. This is because the two look quite alike,have the same hair color, and even similar traits such as their obsession with food. However, this theory lost a lot of popularityonce it was revealed that Big Mom has like a gajillion children, which wouldn’t reallymake Bonney being a Yonko’s kid quite that important anymore. But what if we had it wrong the whole timeand Bonney wasn’t the kid of Big Mom….
But her clone? After all the two behave in very similar ways,both wanting to eat all the time, and both being easily prone to getting angry and beingoverly emotional. The two also practically look identical, wedon’t have a 22 year old Big Mom to use for reference, but she hardly looks much differentfrom a 28 year old Big Mom. Unfortunately the only caveat in this theoryis that Bonney actually has purple eyes, and since Big Mom has orange-brown eyes, thenthe two can’t possibly be clones of each other… or does she? Because actually this was an anime-only changeand in the original manga designs by Oda Bonney.
Actually has the exact same eye color as Linlin,making her look practically biologically identical to Big Mom. You might bring into question how older Bonneylooked fairly different from Big Mom, but as this chapter clarified, Bonney’s powerallows someone to age into different potential futures of their older selves, which is whyLuffy aged as his future where things went wrong, or Bonney aged herself into a futurewhere she is really buff. Plus, her fruit might also explain why shealways looks so slim despite always eating so much, which would make her slimmer thanBig Mom looked. And you have to keep in mind that althoughBonney looks around the age of 22, Oda clarified.
In the SBS that’s only the appearance sheis usually seen in and that her real age might be very different. So much like Stussy, she is likely older thanthat, and may have very similarly been born as a clone of Big Mom shortly after the GodValley incident during the period of MADS. Which would explain why Akainu consideredBonney such a threat, which wouldn’t make quite as much sense if she’s just Kuma’sdaughter. The girl that Vegapunk speaks of at the startof the chapter could potentially maybe not even just be referring to Stussy, but maybeBonney as well. After her birth as a clone, Kuma may havegrown attached to her and decided to take.
Her in and raise her as his own daughter,which is why she considers herself as such. This would explain the discrepancy that Kumais said to be from a special race, but Bonney instead seems to be a full-blooded human. Which by the way likely has to do with thefact that this chapter confirmed Kuma does actually have bear-like ears! And that could explain why Vegapunk promisedto Kuma that he would never divulge the secrets of his past to Bonney. As we find out in this chapter, Vegapunk broughtup how a certain doctor in the West Blue believed that people’s souls are lost after death,which given his age, location, and research.
Into the dead, this certain doctor may verywell be Dr. Hogback. So as many suspected, Kuma’s consciousness,what some would call the “soul”, has been preserved thanks to the use of his powers,meaning that despite Kuma being just an empty dead robot right now, he could possibly comeback if those memories are re-implanted into him. And as we see in this chapter too, Vegapunktried to stop Bonney from accessing her father’s memories at all costs, because he promisedKuma that he would not let her know the truth of Kuma’s past. And it would make a lot of sense if that truthis that Bonney was a lab experiment, a clone.
Of Big Mom, because Kuma wanted to spare Bonneyfrom the truth of having an existencial crisis of just being a clone of someone else. Still, this is just a potential theory, asat the same time there’s some aspects that still need more clarification, but there’salso the chance that Kuma also hides some dark truths in his past, and that there mayhave been very real reasons as to why he was called “Tyrant” back in his youth thatBonney may struggle to accept, seen as how she claimed that there is no way her fathercould have committed any crimes. But furthermore, this makes me wonder if itreally is just the same process behind how Kaido’s fruit was cloned.
Especially as Vegapunk describes Stussy’sbirth as “being born upon this world”, similar wording to how “all things thatare dreamed of are born upon this world”, which referred to devil fruits. As after all, Zoan fruits are said to possessa will of their own, meaning that by all means, they are actually living creatures. This may be why they are able to be cloned,whereas Paramecia require copying and replicating the mechanics of each fruit’s respectivebloodline element effect through the Green Blood, and Logia are too hard to clone. But since Zoan fruits are actually alive,then that’s the reason why they too can.
Be cloned a lot more easily. Not only do they carry the wills of livinganimals within them but some, like the Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika even carry the willof a god within… but I’m sure we’ll find out more secrets about the truth of devilfruits soon enough.
Sussy 😂😂😂
The Stussy who was once in MADS would possibly per chance well well without danger honest be the same one that’s now Buckingham. The clone doesn't would possibly per chance well well mute be 70+ years aged, it would without danger be the first a success clone and mute be 40 or something.I love the concept that Weevil is a failed clone of Whitebeard who was once taken away by the exact Stussy and raised as if it had been her's and WB's organic son.
Now that we have clones, every person will recognize all over clones of someone from the past. I truly hope Oda wont everuse that, but making clones exact, he sail in a thin ice already.
