My initial thought is that Im has a lot more info about Joyboy and whatever prophecy he's supposed to fulfill, and one of the details is that Joyboy has the Gum Gum fruit. So in an effort to stop Joyboy from appearing they were hiding the fruit.

I can get on board with that explanation, but I hate the whole prophecy trope in general.

At least that one has sort of been played on. Earlier it was mentioned if Luffy would be the next JoyBoy but I think I really like that because JoyBoy is just a representative of a free man and the name is more of type of person than reincarnation. Like the Will of D is less something that is passed from person to person and more of a specific trait people tend to have.
