“Wealth, fame, and power,” the opening monologue of the anime One Piece is still relevant today. Anyone who sets sail and pursues the legendary treasure One Piece is after those three things and the title of Pirate King.
This also includes Monkey D. Luffy, the main character of the story, who shares the same dream as countless other pirates. However, Luffy is one of the few who is very close to obtaining that treasure, as he already has copies of the three Road Poneglyphs.
Once Luffy meets the Man Marked by Flames and finds the fourth Road Poneglyph, he can set sail to the final island of Laugh Tale. However, that won't be the end of the story. In his message, Vegapunk says that whoever obtains One Piece will gain that “power.” But what power is the professor talking about?
One Piece Gives the Pirate King Control of the Ancient Weapons
A Japanese translator on Twitter/X said: “In Japanese, demonstrative pronouns like 'その – that' can be ambiguous and can refer to many things. In this case, it is possible that it refers to the power of the Ancient Weapon.”
In other words, the one who finds One Piece will also gain control of the Ancient Weapon. However, whether the editor's interpretation is correct or not remains to be seen.”
The three ancient weapons are invincible weapons that engulfed the world over 800 years ago. Vegapunk says that the Great War is not over yet and those powers will be used again. Now, the story has revealed about Poseidon and Pluton. However, the mermaid princess Shirahoshi cannot use her Poseidon power as she wishes. On the other hand, Pluton is hidden in Wano and no one knows how to use it.
Uraunus's form and powers are still unknown. It is also unclear whether Uranus is a living being like Poseidon or a man-made object like Pluton. Although the series has introduced the Ancient Weapon, no one has actually been able to control it.
It is believed that Laugh Tale holds the true secrets of the past. Therefore, it may hold the key for the finder of One Piece to use the Ancient Weapon. Luffy's true dream is something he can only achieve after becoming the Pirate King. Therefore, once he gains the “power” after finding One Piece, a war will begin that will shake the world to its core.
Where is One Piece?
The treasure of One Piece is located on Laugh Tale. This island at the end of the New World contains the wealth and power that the whole world dreams of having. The Roger Pirates are the only ones to find it in over 800 years. The last island that can be reached by following the Log Pose is Lodestar.
The only way to get there is to find four Road Poneglyphs. Each Poneglyph contains the coordinates of a location. By connecting the four locations on the map, the interactive point will reveal the location of Laugh Tale.
