One of the latest comes from the SBS section of Volume 113, where Oda indirectly confirmed something fans never expected — Queen is actually Franky’s father.

This revelation alone was enough to ignite a new wave of theories across the fandom. But with Franky’s father now identified, a bigger mystery takes the spotlight: who is his mother?

The “Gloriosa Connection” Theory

Among countless speculations online, one particular theory has gained traction — that Franky’s mother might be Gloriosa, the former Empress of Amazon Lily. As wild as this sounds, One Piece history has shown that Oda loves turning crazy theories into reality.

In the SBS for Volume 113, a fan asked Oda point-blank whether Queen and Franky are related. Oda gave a typically playful answer:

“Oh no… they’ve found out! They must’ve noticed that the year Queen’s child was born matches Franky’s birth year! And the year Queen abandoned his child matches the year Tom took Franky in! Readers knowing something characters don’t would be strange… I’ll just bluff my way out of this… N… Nyo they’re… nyot…!!!”

Fans immediately noticed Oda’s stuttering “nyot,” which sounds eerily similar to Gloriosa’s trademark “nyo.” Since Oda rarely includes such quirks without meaning, some believe it’s a deliberate hint toward Franky’s maternal lineage.
