The Mystery of Ancient Weapons and Poneglyphs
In the world of ONE PIECE, the ancient weapons known as Pluton, Poseidon, and Uranus are shrouded in mystery. Each of these weapons is linked to Poneglyphs, which provide clues about their existence and locations. Traditionally, the Poneglyphs that describe these ancient weapons appear first, with the actual locations revealed later on different islands. However, the case of Uranus seems to deviate from this pattern.
Pluton and Its Poneglyph
- The Poneglyph describing Pluton was found in the Alabasta Kingdom, safeguarded by the Nefertari family for generations.
- Pluton was constructed in Water 7, known as the city of shipwrights, where its blueprints were passed down among shipbuilders.
Interestingly, while the Poneglyph in Alabasta only mentioned Pluton, the detailed discussions about it occurred in Water 7, highlighting a significant connection between these two locations.
Poseidon and Its Poneglyph
- The Poneglyph detailing Poseidon was discovered on Skypiea, at an altitude of 10,000 meters.
- Poseidon, the mermaid princess who can communicate with Sea Kings, is said to reside at Fish-Man Island, located 10,000 meters beneath the sea.
This contrast between the locations of the Poneglyphs and the ancient weapons suggests a recurring pattern, where the places mentioned in the Poneglyphs and the actual locations of the weapons are in direct opposition.
The Rule of Ancient Weapons and Poneglyphs
It appears that there is a rule governing the relationship between the Poneglyphs and the ancient weapons. Two of the three ancient weapons follow this pattern, leading to speculation that the third, Uranus, may also adhere to this rule.
Uranus: The Identity and Location
In Chapter 1086, Sabo witnessed a dark object above the Lulusia Kingdom, which he believes to be Uranus, the ancient weapon responsible for the kingdom’s destruction. If Im is indeed immortal and has lived since ancient times, it is plausible that he possesses this ancient weapon.
The Connection to the Nefertari Family
Im’s connection to the Nefertari family, particularly through the character of Nefertari D. Lily, raises questions about the ancient weapon’s origins. The Poneglyphs created by the Kozuki family in Wano may have been influenced by the actions of Lily, who is believed to have made a significant mistake that led to the scattering of Poneglyphs across the world.
Speculations on Im’s Identity
Im’s name being known to Cobra suggests that he was once a king of the Goa Kingdom, which aligns with the theory that he is one of the original twenty kings who established the World Government. This would make Im a unique figure, having transitioned from a king to a dictator, ruling from the shadows.
Conclusion
As the story unfolds, the connections between Im, the ancient weapons, and the Poneglyphs will likely become clearer. The implications of Im’s identity as a former king of the Goa Kingdom could reshape our understanding of the world of ONE PIECE and its history.
