Introduction

The recent developments in theONE PIECEseries have left fans buzzing with excitement and speculation. In chapter 1144, we are introduced to a mysterious scientific facility from 3,000 years ago, which seems to be the key reason behind the World Government’s desire to control Elbaf. But what exactly is the significance of this facility, and why is the World Government so eager to send the God Knights to Elbaf? Let’s dive into the details and uncover the layers of this intriguing plot.

Reasons for Dispatching the God Knights

In chapter 1143, a scene unfolds where Somars, a member of the God Knights, refers to the situation as a “soft game,” while Gunko warns him of impending troubles. The source of these troubles is none other than the Straw Hat Pirates, who are currently docked at the village of Seiun. This exchange reveals that the God Knights were unaware of the Straw Hats’ presence in Elbaf, indicating that their mission is not solely to eliminate them.

If the mission is not about the Straw Hats, then it seems that the World Government’s true objective lies elsewhere. The Holy Land Mariejois is currently facing a food crisis, and dealing with the Revolutionary Army is a pressing concern. So why send the God Knights to Elbaf? The invitation from Loki to the God Knights cannot be the sole reason, as it was merely a strategy to bring Elbaf under their control. When Loki refused, the plan shifted to taking hostages, which suggests a deeper motive.

The Importance of the 3,000-Year-Old Scientific Facility

So, what makes the World Government so interested in this ancient scientific facility? The answer lies in their acquisition of York (Dr. Vegapunk). With York in their possession, the World Government has recognized the potential of the 3,000-year-old facility located in Elbaf. They had previously ignored its existence, believing it to be useless in the hands of the giant race. However, with York’s capabilities, the narrative has changed.

The research facility on Egghead has a fusion reactor capable of creating the “Mother Flame,” but it remains incomplete. With York being only a fraction of Dr. Vegapunk, the timeline for completion is uncertain. The ancient facility in Elbaf could expedite this process, making it crucial for the World Government’s plans.

Scientific Facility and the “Divine Text”

What is the connection between the scientific facility and the “Divine Text” (Harey)? It is likely that this facility corresponds to either the “First World” or the “Second World” mentioned in the Divine Text. I believe it pertains to the “First World,” particularly the part about “touching the forbidden sun.” This suggests that the ancient energy (the sun) was harnessed at this facility.

Furthermore, the existence of the “slaves” mentioned in the text could relate to the emergence of the “Sun God.” If we assume that the “slaves” refer to the Baccania tribe, who are born as a slave race, the significance of the scientific facility becomes clearer. It may represent the interaction between the Moon people and the giant race.

Restoration of the Scientific Facility

In chapter 1144, a surprising revelation occurs with the mention of a creature called “Kaminari” nearby. This creature could potentially provide power to the scientific facility, similar to how Eneru supplied energy to the ancient city on the moon. However, given that 3,000 years have passed, the facility may no longer function.

In such a case, Bonny’s “Toshi Toshi no Mi” ability could come into play. Her power suggests that while life may not have eternal effects, it could have lasting effects on non-living entities. This raises the possibility that Bonny’s ability could restore the facility to its original state.

Conclusion

As we explore the implications of the World Government’s interest in Elbaf and the ancient scientific facility, it becomes clear that the completion of the “Mother Flame” is at the heart of their plans. With the potential revival of Dr. Vegapunk’s clones and the utilization of the facility, the future of Elbaf and its significance in the ongoing narrative is more crucial than ever. Fans are left to wonder how these developments will unfold in the upcoming chapters.
