In every corner of One Piece there is a mystery. Eiichiro Oda created his magnum opus in such a way that fans get lost in the mysteries. He also reveals them when the time is right. But there are still some mysteries that often make fans question the whole plot. One of these questions is if Red Haired Shanks stole Gomu Gomu no Mi for Monkey D. Luffy or if there was another pirate who would become Sun God Nika.
Although it seems like a mind boggling question, several theories believe that Gol D. Roger's son, Portgas D. Ace, was meant to eat Gomu Gomu no Mi. But thanks to Eiichiro Oda, Monkey D. Luffy came out of nowhere to consume the fruit. Unknowingly, it was JoyBoy's Devil Fruit, Hito Hito no Mi, Model: Nika.
According to the latest One Piece fan theory, Shanks was supposed to deliver the Gomu Gomu no Mi to Portgas D. Ace. After Gol D. Roger reached Laugh Tale, he learned that he arrived years before JoyBoy's reincarnation. He said he still had time to have a son. Although Shanks was not present at the Laugh Tale, he learned of his captain's wish.
