Speculations Technology dispute between Imu and Joyboy

[milluki]

In light of the new chapter, I want to bring attention to my theories in regard to the True History. In my video, from more than two months ago, I speculated that Imu ruled the advanced Ancient Kingdom together with Joyboy. That they became enemies due to a quarrel over the dangers of technology. Joyboy, carefree as Luffy, wanted unregulated technological progress. Imu saw that his collague was flying too close to the sun. In the current chapter Vegapunk said that about himself. The chapter is titled Wings of Icarus. I used a picture of the mythological Icarus in my video:

That's your channel?
Jesus, that explains... so much.

Makes sense. Someone who wants to use technology to annihilate countries, would be concerned about unregulated progress due to potential harm.

It's Laugh Tale, a matter of jest. The entire conflict is nothing more than an absurdity, a banality. No matter what it turns out to be, it won't be about justice or technological prowess. It'll be silly.
Like: Joy Boy wanted beetles to be the AK's symbol, while Imu preferred butterflies instead.
That sort of silly.
An entire empire was destroyed, people suffered for a millennium, and all of it because of two bugs*.

Spoiler

A matter which will aptly be solved by having another Buggy sit on the throne

I highly doubt that Imu ruled the Ancient Kingdom with Joyboy.
- Fate seems to have kept the Ancient Weapons and other forms of Ancient Technology out of Imu's hands as best it could. My feeling is that the Ancient Weapons and other forms of Ancient Technology actually present themselves to people if they are special. Imu isn't.

And the bugs turn out to be the ancestors of Buggy and Con D. Oriano ala Sasuke Naruto sage of 6 paths style

Imu is like those old people who avoid technology at all cost and say it destroy the world until they finally gave up and ask their grandson to teach them.

That's why no one in 800 years until Vegapunk came up was studying and replicating the technology contained at OHara books.
