Imu and Joy Boy Not Davy Jones Pets

The claim

Reasoning

This is the forward-routed remainder of the “Imu Is a Parrot” Gauntlet verdict (see Imu Is a Parrot). The verdict’s central avian claim is refuted by present pages, but the wave’s newest extension — the “Davy’s-pets composite” — makes an origin claim that no published chapter can settle today, so it is filed here rather than scored.

The prediction is high-confidence because the composite’s own premises already run against present canon. The composite needs Davy Jones to be a pet-owner and Imu / Joy Boy to be his two animals; the pages instead frame Davy as a wronged founding king locked in a grievance with the Mu-entity, and Joy Boy as a named human Void-Century protagonist. The mechanism (two pets ate the first Hito-Hito fruits, cleaving the world into birds and mammals) has no on-page or vault footing.

Resolution

Once new info arrives, update status, resolved_date, resolved_chapter and write a one-paragraph postmortem here describing what happened and what reasoning was right or wrong.

Supporting evidence

• Ch. 1164 — The Mu-entity names “Davy D. Jones was once the King of the World,” fears a hereditary “Davy blood” / “Davy’s will” that might be “passed down… to fulfill the promise,” and frames a “grievance between Mu and Davy,” with Davy set apart from Joy Boy (“Or Joy-Boy?!! Davy D. Jones?!!”). Davy reads as a founding king Imu overthrew, not a pet-owner.
• Ch. 1114 — Vegapunk canonizes Joy Boy as “a man” born into the advanced ancient kingdom 900 years ago, “the very first man on this sea to be called a pirate,” and the Nika-bodied Void-Century protagonist — a person, not a monkey pet.
• Ch. 1179 — Imu’s true-form reveal is a horned, white-haired, winged humanoid with no beak or feathers, leaving the “Imu was a parrot” half of the composite without any avian anchor.
• Imu Identity — the tracked leading origin theories are possessed-Lily demon, prototype / root Devil-Fruit user, Lunarian / sky-being, and place-bound spirit; a literal pet parrot of Davy Jones is in none of them.

What would refute this

Be specific — the cleaner the falsifier, the more honest the prediction:

• A Void-Century / Great-Kingdom flashback that shows Davy Jones owning Imu and Joy Boy as pet animals (a parrot and a monkey).
• A reveal that the first Hito Hito no Mi (Human-Human Fruits) were eaten by Davy Jones’s two pets, or any on-page “Birds versus Mammals” world-split framing of Devil-Fruit origins.
• A chapter or SBS that redraws or names Imu as an actual parrot / bird, or Joy Boy as an actual monkey rather than the human first pirate.
