Is the world aware though? VP did not actually say who destroyed lulusia, only that it was an ancient weapon that did it. He also said that it was the WG's enemy, the pirate joyboy, who wanted to preserve the ancient weapons.

At this stage, it’s probably better for the WG to admit to it. They can just cast off the facade and still rule the world by fear.

If the WG plays dumb, their authority will vanish when the people believe that a party out there possesses nukes and the WG can do nothing to stop it.

Essentially, It’s between two choices: (1) appear incompetent, weak and no longer the top dog because someone else has nukes, or (2) just become the tyrant that they have always been.

It’s your bet on which choice the WG will go along with.

That or lie to the entire world again and say Joy Boy was behind the world destruction.

 For the Marines and many ignorant masses, Joy Boy was the original pirate and the Gorosei would have it easy to trick them by saying he was the cause behind the cataclysm from 900 years ago. By doing this, they would install fear in peoples heart and rally the ignorant masses against a common fake enemy.

Not Joy Boy. There's an even more convienient scapegoat. One of the people who were on Roger's ship, has been targeting government assets, and is currently one of the most infamous pirates in the world. An Emperor, in fact.

That's right, the man who destroyed Lulusia was none other than Buggy D. Clown.
