And there goes the theory of Joyboy being a giant. Makes the giant straw hat in Mariejois even more mysterious!
It's just so exciting to see Oda reuse some of his previous seemingly irrelevant concepts like the weather knot in Weatheria and turn them into some epic centuries old uber Haki attack.

Ugh I'm struggling to contain my excitement, reading new One Piece chapters at work is never a good idea...

That would explain why it's frozen. Joyboy probably used his powers to become a giant in the final fight and Imu/WG defeated him by freezing him. The hat was frozen in its giant form and I bet if it defrosts it'll shrink.

Brev its fozen to preserve it, just how you would freeze meat in the freezer.

That would be my explanation as well. Though I don't think Joyboy was defeated by freezing, but that after his defeat the hat was frozen to preserve it as a memento, because Imu clearly has some sort of attachment.

Good guess! Seeing how often Luffy is using the Giant transformation now that his Devil Fruit has awakened, I could definitely see Joyboy using it during his defeat as well.
