Welcome to the fascinating world of Elbaf, a kingdom shrouded in mystery and rich in lore. As we delve into the intricacies of this land, we will uncover the secrets that lie within its borders and the potential challenges that await our beloved Straw Hat crew. Join us on this thrilling journey as we explore the Kingdom of Elbaf and the enigmatic figure of Mother Carmel.

The Kingdom of Elbaf: Walrand

After 37 years of establishing the“House of Sheep”in Elbaf, something significant must have happened to Mother Carmel, who had been residing there for a long time…

Advice from Louis Arnaud

• InONE PIECE Chapter 1132, explorer Louis Arnaud warns adventurers about the mysterious land of Elbaf, stating,“Do not linger in this land.”He also mentions,“Do not regret the time lost that cannot be returned.”This cryptic message seems directed at the Straw Hat crew, Bonnie, and Lilith (Dr. Vegapunk), suggesting that Luffy and his friends might end up staying longer than intended.

It is unclear how long this“lingering”period refers to, but it is likely that Luffy and his crew will not be able to leave without encountering some trouble. The duration of their stay could be around two weeks, especially considering the upcoming“Winter Solstice Festival,”which involves a 12-day fasting tradition leading up to the event. This festival, said to celebrate the“death and resurrection of the sun,”may play a crucial role in the story.

Mother Carmel and Elbaf

Many theories surround Louis Arnaud’s warning, particularly regarding what might happen to those who stay too long. However, there seems to be no visible change in Mother Carmel, who spent 37 years in Elbaf before leaving due to the chaos caused by Big Mom. Despite her long stay, she does not appear to have aged significantly or experienced any physical changes, suggesting that the time flow in Elbaf may differ from the outside world.

Reasons Not to Linger

As we analyze the situation, it becomes evident that staying in Elbaf for an extended period does not seem to affect humans like it does for the giants. Big Mom’s personality was already established before her time in Elbaf, and it is unlikely that her stay contributed to the“Mother Carmel Disappearance Incident.”Louis Arnaud’s warning about not lingering in Elbaf raises questions about the nature of time in this land.

Conclusion

In summary, the Kingdom of Elbaf, known as Walrand, holds many mysteries and potential dangers for Luffy and his crew. As they navigate this land, they must heed the warnings of Louis Arnaud and be cautious of the time they spend there. The upcoming events, including the Winter Solstice Festival, promise to be pivotal in their adventure.
