Theory Imu's True Plan for Vivi

#1
First of all, I want to clarify that Imu is a male, not a female. This was confirmed in chapter 1086; he is called Imu-sei (イム聖) in this chapter, not Imu-Gu (イム宮) like Shalria, Charlos' sister.



We are going to start with the simplest act: when Imu carried four pictures of Luffy, Shirahoshi, Teatch, and Vivi, he cut them all apart, except for Vivi, who was shown as safe. It means that he does not hold a grudge against her, despite what she did.



There are many flowers in his room. He takes care of it. Its name, Calla Lily, has several deep meanings, including symbolizing lovers and weddings.



Perhaps even the sword that he cut Shirahoshi's image with. belongs to Lili, who still has not put down her sword.



What a coincidence! The butterfly passed by Vivi before Lucci kidnapped her. Isn’t this a hint that the one who had the idea to kidnap Vivi was the same person who owned that butterfly?



In Chapter 1086, when he said that he wanted Vivi, his goal did not include enmity or killing her. This is the second time he insists on bringing her to him after his first attempt failed.



Here, we will talk about the foreshadowing developed by Oda, which is the representation of Imu’s desires through King Stelly. For example, in this chapter, Stelly desperately wanted to sit on the empty throne despite the consequences, and in another chapter, Imu fulfilled that desire and sat on it.

Oda used the same foreshadowing technique again, where Stelly liked Vivi’s beauty. Then, in the same chapter, Imu asked the Gorosei if he wanted Vivi. These are examples of foreshadowing, representing a personal desire in a second character. Both Imu and Stelly find her cute.



Now let's talk about some hints in Vivi’s covers. For example, this cover hinted at the death of Cobra before his death, and the flower there symbolizes Queen Lili, etc.



Let's explain some of the covers in which Oda hints at Vivi's relationships with marriage and various romantic hints. This cover is Nefertari Vivi undergoing wedding training, and it says “Wedding Training” on that sign.



In this cover, "Vivi turns 18 and becomes an adult." We see a group carrying red apples for her. The apple has always been considered a symbol of desire, passion, and love. Does this mean that an entity desires her emotionally after she has become an adult?



Here, the eel tries to attract Vivian with a red rose, which is often presented as a symbol of love and affection. As for the red necktie, it symbolizes power, high status, and authority. This means that this eel is a powerful entity that expresses his love for her, trying to marry her. Who is this royal entity that is proposing marriage?



Vivi is wearing a wedding dress, and she has a wooden form opposite her wearing the same dress; the wood in One Piece is linked to spirits. The opposite is her likeness, Lili. They are both on opposite sides of the same coin and are wearing the same wedding clothes. Does this mean that it is Vivi's turn next, as it was Lili's before from the same person?



Oda not only hinted in the covers; he even hinted in the chapters about her father asking her to get married and that she was greatly wanted by the suitors, but she refused. This part was not that important for Oda to spare an entire page unless he wanted to reach a future mysterious goal of her being forced to get married.



Mr. Im put his position at risk just to ask about Lili, even though the other 18 Kings called her a traitor. He still believes in Lili, even if it was just 1%. He called this "a mistake," but when he confirmed that it was planned He didn't accept her betrayal, so he sent his tail and killed Cobra. Some Japanese people said that when Imu heard that Lili was "D," his features and the way the words were worded were sad and heartbreaking.



Now this is what I think about the fact that he chose the Lulusia Kingdom. Was it only because it was close like he claims? Or was there another reason, but he didn't tell the Gorosei?



Before Imu called and specified the kingdom, Oda showed us in the frame that Sabo boarded Lulucia's ship. After that, Imu called Gorosei and said he wanted to use weapons. Then he chose the same kingdom that Sabo would reach under the pretext that it was close, and this is not a coincidence because Oda does not use coincidences. As for the question of how he knew Sabo’s exact destination, I don't know because his ability is still unknown, but I assure you that he knew Sabo’s destination, unlike the Gorosi, who learned of his location days after his arrival.

"D" are Imu's enemies; this means that Vivi will become his enemy if she knows her truth; he doesn't want to lose her like he lost Lili before. That's why, when he heard Cobra say to Sabo, “Tell Vivi we are also from D,” Imu got so angry that he sent his tail to kill them both, but Sabo succeeded in escaping.



Sabo became a source of nuisance to him, so that's why he chose Lulusia. It's because he doesn't want Vivi to know about her truth and wants to keep her for him. So if Sabo told her, he would spoil Imu's plan, which he was about to implement, and we saw how he tried to implement that plan before by kidnapping her, but he didn't succeed. The Gorosei don't know the truth about his choice of Lulusia, but rather believe that it is because the people revolted against the WG.

What do you think?

Yeah, he probably was in love with Lily and now is obsessed with her look a like daughter.

This also gives me much hope for my Luvi ship. Luffy is Im's biggest threat, and in the end Luffy will take his dream girl. :sweat:
