Bartholomew Kuma’s backstories are one of the most interesting aspects of One Piece at the moment. Fans have several questions about this character, and the story arc is seemingly packed with action, excitement, and earth-shattering revelations.
Several crucial questions regarding the character have been explained in depth. However, fans wonder why Kuma agreed to become a cyborg in alliance with the World Government. With how things have turned out regarding Bonney recently, it seems like Kuma might have found an opportunity to overturn his destiny.
Kuma sacrifices his own life for Jewelry Bonney in One Piece
Kuma sacrifices his life by joining the World Government to protect Bonney. He wished for the organization and Vegapunk to cure her disease. We have seen in the series that Vegapunk was the world’s greatest scientist. This meant it might have been possible for him to find a cure.
The entire ordeal involved Kuma donating his body for the Pacifista project and pledging allegiance to the World Nobles in a cruel twist of fate, where he had to give up his ideals to save his daughter’s life. However, since Bonney has escaped the World Government, they no longer have the upper hand on Kuma. They’re likely using her to keep the former Shichibukai in check. This appears to be the most likely scenario behind what happened to Kuma. He might have had an opportunity to alter his fate.
Jewelry Bonney, a wailing infant in One Piece
As he arrived in the Sorbet Kingdom, Kuma found Ginny to have fallen victim to the illness. He finds her lying dead on the floor of the church where they grew up together.
This is where Kuma pledged to raise the wailing infant beside Ginny as his own. He cared for Bonney to pay respect to Ginny’s memory. She had a striking resemblance to her mother while growing up with Kuma. Her appetite and adamant personality took after her mother. Her early years in the Sorbet Kingdom were quite peaceful. Kuma was mostly busy with critical missions of the Revolutionary Army, but Bonney used to meet with a doting father whenever he returned. Everything was apparently fine until Bonney started displaying initial symptoms of the disease, which struck her mother. The form of small blue stones on her skin resembled her mother’s.
