One Piece is a series that is known for a lot of things, and one of them is the fandom, which comes up with a lot of different theories to explain certain plot points that are currently unresolved. In that regard, there have been several far-fetched theories over the years, but now there is one explaining how the series' logo could explain the path to reach Laugh Tale.
This theory explains that the One Piece logo is the path to the Laugh Tale island where the title treasure lies and is actually author Eiichiro Oda's way of having the answers right in front of people's faces. While this is definitely a very far-fetched explanation and is very unlikely to be the case, it does bring up some interesting elements that need to be taken into account.

The One Piece logo could be the road to reach Laugh Tale, according to a new theory
This theory starts by stating that the upper and lower lines form the Calm Belt and the text represents the Grand Line, with the red Luffy as the "I" being the Red Line. The rope comes from the anchor and goes down and around the bottom of the line. This could represent the deep sea current, which has an entrance where the poneglyphs point to, thus explaining why no one has found the treasure before Roger: it's not something that can be reached without knowing the exact location.
It wraps around and underneath the calm belt, all the way back to the start. The "X" of the Jolly Roger is the location of the treasure, which may or may not be in a cavern underground but is most definitely located at the beginning of the journey, which would be enough to make an entire pirate crew laugh aloud, this being or perhaps not being Reverse Mountain.
Now the focus should be on the anchor rope, which is in the mouth of the jolly roger. However, the theory suggests that is actually the whale Laboon and is holding the anchor rope in his mouth. Therefore, it is assumed that Laboon will take the Straw Hats to the Laugh Tale.
What could the treasure be
There have been a lot of theories regarding what the One Piece is, with a lot of people speculating based on Gol D. Roger's reaction in the flashback. Roger laughed when he saw the treasure, which is something that has led people to have a lot of different perspectives, especially when it comes to the reasons why he left it there in Laugh Tale.
It has been stated in the manga that Roger and his crew arrived "too early" to take the treasure, which means that timing is necessary for this object. Furthermore, there are speculations that this treasure actually has a specific use or is connected to greater concepts in the story, such as the events of the Void Century, the Will of D, and the nature of Nika.
Final thoughts
The idea that the One Piece logo is the path to Laugh Tale is something extremely ironic and entertaining to think about. However, it is worth pointing out that this is mere fan speculation at the moment, and nothing in the story seems to suggest that.
