IMU domi reversi explanation

SpoilerTheory

Hi!

I have a theory of how IMU's ability or power works. The mark to become a God's knight or higher works as deal for the soul of the user like a deal with the devil that IMU puts in its book with the pentagram. The user seems to have "free will" or can think and act by himself but at the end once that IMU wants to hold the strings they are like puppets, they are conscious inside like we saw with Rocks but their soul is not really there. This is something we've all seen but I want to go a little bit deeper.

What happens with the soul of that person? here is when it gets interesting. Let's talk first about the ones with the Mark. The ones with the mark like what happened with Harald when he made the deal, it has to be done with will by both sides but it needs a final step or like a faith jump, to get into the pentagram to finally be bond with IMU at full link. When this happens, your soul gets trapped in a parallel world kind of like Stranger Things. IMU can come from a parallel world where all of us have a reverse of ourselves waiting to be awaken and ready to go to the other side.

What happens with a God's knight. I think God's knight at full potential can unleash that reversi at will to become more powerful and have a consciousness of their actions and use the reverse version of themselves to improve fighting, like a fruit awakening.

But what happens with a normal person like it happened with the giants? I think what happens is like if they are ever touched by some possessed that instantly unlock their reverse version but with no conscience at all. Just pure evil and following the desires of IMU, the king of that World. Their soul, the normal and the reverse just switch from one dimension to the other and to break that bond it needs a huge amount of Haki like Garp and Roger did, to be able to penetrate between dimensions and cut the bond.

I think that the true IMU is waiting inside that dimension and he only has a bond with Nerona king to be able to live in the normal dimension. To finally defeat IMU Rocks needed two Devil Fruits, The Yami Yami no mi of the Darkness so he can jump between dimensions at will with no need of mark or contract with IMU and the Hito Hito model Nika of the Sun or Iight in order to illuminate that dark dimension and fight the true being of IMU, only the Nike fruit will show the true identity of IMU once in the revere world. With both fruits he would be able to defeat him due to his Davy's blood power, the same a Teach but now Tech and Luffy will have to join forces to fight the true IMU in its dimension, the same where the Devil fruits also come, there they will find the reverse world and the reverse Adam tree in which all the devil fruits grow.

I don't know how possible is this and if it makes sense but I hope you enjoy and make you think. And any suggestions please comment.
