One Piece: Vegapunk Reveals Major Secrets From The Void Century

One piece chapter 1115 dropped recently and covered some of the most incredible secrets of the entire story. Fans knew that Oda was going to reveal massive secrets about the Void Century through Vegapunk in the Egghead Island arc, and that seems to have been the case.

Over the course of the last few chapters, Oda has been revealing bits about the Void Century, but no chapter has gone into as much detail about these events as One Piece chapter 1115. Thanks to Vegapunk’s study of the Poneglyphs, he has been able to decipher some of the most shocking truths of the One Piece world and now, he has finally made them public. Everything regarding individuals such as Joy Boy, the Void Century War, and the upcoming battle is greatly covered by Dr Vegapunk.

The Great War Fought 900 Years Ago

Vegapunk Revealed A Major War Was Fought In The Past

As mentioned by Vegapunk previously, in order to understand the current predicament of the world, one needs to go back into the distant past and understand the world back then. Vegapunk then touched upon the subject of Joy Boy, and he believed that this individual existed around 900 years ago. He was born with the power to stretch and shrink, just like the Sun God Nika from the tales of Elbaf. In One Piece chapter 1115, Vegapunk went on to mention that Joy Boy was at war during the Void Century. To take down Joy Boy and the Ancient Kingdom, 20 different kingdoms collaborated and created an allied force that stopped Joy Boy. It was not known as the World Government back then. They work together to oppose Joy Boy and according to them, this was the only way to take down the powerful group that Joy Boy was a part of. This confirms the fact that Joy Boy was not alone and had many powerful allies by his side.

I only have access to a handful of Poneglyphs, but their combined narrative clearly chronicles an unbelievable history of a great war in the distant past!

Vegapunk also mentioned that he does not know whether the cause the war was fought over was for the right or the wrong. He does go on to say that it was a split in opinion that caused this massive war and resulted in the world being engulfed in a 100-year battle. This war waged on, and Joy Boy fought valiantly. Fans even got to see a small panel of Joy Boy taking up arms against those of allied Kingdoms. According to Vegapunk, afterwards, these kingdoms came to be known as the World Government, and they are the current rulers of the world.

The Ancient Weapons Of The Long Gone Past

The Ancient Weapons Pose A Massive Threat To The One Piece World

Vegapunk also touched on the subject of the ancient weapons in this chapter. According to Vegapunk, the technology of the Ancient Kingdom was incredibly advanced. In fact, even a genius such as himself, who is said to have been 500 years ahead of the current humanity, pales in comparison to the incredible minds of those who existed long ago. Vegapunk’s mind cannot comprehend the technology that they possessed and fans know that for a fact. He was craving this technology that ancient weapons were created with long ago. These weapons hold the power to destroy the entire world and it is by using these weapons that the world can essentially be sunk.

These ancient weapons are what caused the problems long ago in the past, according to Vegapunk. How exactly these ancient weapons were created is not known. It isn’t even known if the people of the Ancient Kingdom intended to use them for the means of war. It could be possible that they wanted to use them just like Vegapunk did, which is as a source of power. However, what fans do know is that through one way or another, the ancient weapons were utilized during the Void Century and that became the major problem that caused the world to plunge into utter chaos long ago.

According to Vegapunk, at the end of this massive war, Joy Boy ended up being defeated. With his defeat, the war came to an end, and that is when the World Government was officially created. Of course, then, one would wonder as to where exactly happened to the world and the technology from the past. If a massive Kingdom existed, surely, erasing its records could not have been easier at all. However, when one takes into consideration the usage of Ancient Weapons, erasing the past of the world can then be understood easily.

The Aftermath of The Void Century War

The One Piece World Was Completely Flooded After The War

Even though Joy Boy was defeated, the world had already suffered quite a lot. The scars that this ancient War had left on the world were permanent and they would not heal. This is especially true because these scars were left behind by the Ancient Weapons. Vegapunk then went on to tackle the current geography of the One Piece world. He mentioned how traversing between islands is very difficult in the One Piece world. The world is absolutely massive, yet so few people get to see it in its entirety, and that is because the seas and the One Piece world are absolutely wild, and the vast majority of the people who do attempt to sail end up risking their lives for absolutely nothing.

The wake of that ancient conflict scarred the world, and those scars never truly healed!

However, Vegapunk believes that this was not the case long ago. A thousand years ago, the world of One Piece was very different. This is because they were massive continents in the One Piece world long ago and these continents allowed for one to travel to different places quite easily.

This was a shocking revelation made by Vegapunk in One Piece. However, it is also one that many fans had already predicted, especially after Vegapunk’s massive reveal of the world sinking. Vegapunk continued saying that a cataclysmic event occurred long ago in the past and this event caused all the continents of the world to sink. Whatever remnants exist right now are what is inhabited by the people of the world, which means that people only know a very small portion of the actual world that existed longer ago.

It might be hard for the people of the world to believe this, but there really was a massive continents that existed long ago in the One Piece world. These continents are now at the bottom of the ocean. Oda also showcased a proper glimpse of one of these sunken cities to the fans, and truly they were at the bottom of the sea, which is absolutely shocking to the fans and fascinating at the same time.

The usage of Ancient Weapons also goes on to explain how history was censored in the first place. Normally, censoring something as massive as 100 Year War would be impossible. However, when one considers the ancient weapons, using which the entire world was made to sink, then, there would be absolutely no proof left and the vast majority of people would have died. Whatever people were left would eventually have been cleansed by the government, rebirthing the world in a way where the truth was known to no one.

Vegapunk mentioned that all this was made possible because the water levels rose by a staggering 200 meters long ago. This is enough to sink entire mountains and just goes to show how massive the war that was fought long ago was. And, of course, this rise in water level was caused by the ancient weapons, which are now ready to beat once again.
