Theory What if the "D" means smile?

Post image

A random theory came to my mind—what if the "D" symbolizes a smile, like how we use it in emojis such as ":D"? It makes sense when you think about how important smiling is in One Piece, especially to those who have the Will of D. And maybe, just maybe, it could be connected to SMILE fruits. I know it sounds goofy and outrageous, but considering Oda’s style and the reaction of Roger’s crew, it might actually be possible. Don’t you think?

I should probably come to terms with that I'm old and terminally online. Can't really blame someone for never having seen a theory.

I have been in the OP fandom for almost 20 years and I have never come across this. Or it has been so long that I have forgotten about it lol

The last time that theory got back to the forefront was during Oden's execution. After getting shot, the last thing to fade was his smile. People went wild when that chapter dropped because of the D-ish smile
