Chapter 1113 of the One Piece manga is truly massive in many ways, and the most important part of this chapter comes right at the end, when Vegapunk makes an important announcement.
This big announcement shocked the whole world, and the gist of it was that the entire world would sink to the bottom of the ocean. This announcement is absolutely pivotal to the story going forward in many ways. While this doesn't make any sense to fans right now, there is absolutely a way the world could sink to the bottom of the ocean.
Vegapunk's message has finally appeared after months of waiting
Vegapunk's important message was revealed a few chapters ago in One Piece. The opening of the message is what summoned all the Five Elder Stars to Egghead Island, thanks to Satan's power.
From that moment on, the elders decided to take action and try to subdue all threats on the island. For example, V. Nusjuro set out to take down the Pacifistas and make sure they were no longer active. At the same time, Ju Peter and Warcury focused on Luffy.
Marcus Mars went to Labophase to destroy Den Den Mushi, while Saturn performed the necessary operations. At first he focused on Luffy but now he has turned his attention to Nico Robin.
In any case, the appearance of the world's top five old men on Egghead Island only shows how pervasive Vegapunk's message is. In One Piece chapter 1113, fans finally learn what Vegapunk will say to the world. That is “Our world is about to sink into the sea!”
The first thing fans must remember is that the full message has not been released yet. There are many specifics that still need to be worked out. The context of so much remains unclear. However, the gist of the message is that the One Piece world will sink to the bottom of the ocean.
This is a huge message and will certainly shock the whole world. Fans have yet to see the world's appropriate response to this message. But the first thing fans may wonder when reading this message is how could the world sink to the bottom of the ocean?
After all, the world could be ravaged by war everywhere and still not sink. There must be something special that causes this phenomenon to happen. In fact, it's been in front of fans for quite some time, and there are many ways the world could actually sink to the bottom of the ocean.
Sea levels are rising, gradually increasing over the years in One Piece
Sea levels in the One Piece world have been rising for quite some time, and this is nothing new. In the Water 7 arc, Iceberg explicitly mentions that sea levels are getting higher over time. This sea level has caused the tides to rise and storms like Aqua Laguna to start becoming more dangerous.
Fans have seen before at Water 7 that the level used to be much lower than in previous years. However, over time, sea levels began to rise and submerged the old Water 7, requiring the construction of a new Water 7 above. It is clear that sea levels are constantly rising and will continue to rise further in the coming years. This is one of the reasons why Iceberg even wants to build a floating city, which is Water 7.
At the same time, rising sea levels are being accelerated even further by recent events in the One Piece world. The destruction of Lulusia saw water levels rise by up to 1 meter, leading to several islands being swallowed by the ocean. This is because the Mother Flame was used by Imu on Lulusia. Egghead Island now has the potential to create more of these Mother Flames, and if that were the case one could very well understand what could happen.
The Five Elder Stars have made it clear that their desire is to crush those who show signs of rebellion. So the use of Mother Flame that fans saw at the beginning of Egghead Island wasn't the first, and it certainly won't be the last. If this continues to happen, the sea level will certainly increase by several meters, and as a result, the entire world will be completely submerged.
The fate of the One Piece world is tied to ancient weapons
Essentially, the sinking of the world is deeply related to the use of Ancient Weapons. Ancient weapons were used by individuals in the past. They were built by the people of the Ancient Kingdom. However, two of them are actually harmless, at least for now.
Pluto is hidden in Wano, Poseidon is Luffy's biggest ally and will definitely never do anything to harm the world. However, Uranus is possessed by Imu and the Mother Flame may actually be what powers Uranus and allows it to unleash powerful shots capable of wiping out entire islands. With the power of Uranus, the world could truly sink.
If the truth about the world is exposed and the World Government finds itself cornered, then they will have no choice but to unleash the Mother Flame on the world. With this power, they could sink all the islands that rebelled against them and that would certainly cause sea levels to rise terribly. Therefore, the sinking of the world could be tied to the World Government eradicating signs of rebellion.
This is why there is a large hole under Enies Lobby, or why this island never sees night. Why this is so is unknown at this time, but it may be directly related to the fact that water levels are rising worldwide.
Another thing fans need to consider is that Pluton will be released at some point, and this powerful weapon is also capable of wiping out entire kingdoms with a single attack. Pluton could even destroy the Red Line, and if so, the destruction of the Red Line could also cause water levels to rise. The One Piece world will definitely sink and no one knows how to stop it.
