Unveiling The Mysteries: The Hidden Secrets Behind One Piece's Ocean-Covered World

The world of One Piece has always fascinated and puzzled readers throughout the years. One of the long-standing enigmas of the series is the explanation behind the world being predominantly covered in oceans and scattered with islands. It is a world that starkly differs from our own, boasting extraordinary landscapes and a perplexing logic that challenges the very rules we are accustomed to.

However, in chapter #1060, Imu's utilization of a specific cataclysmic weapon might finally unveil the solution to this ancient riddle. Furthermore, this revelation could shed light on the existence of the mysterious hole at Enies Lobby, among other perplexing phenomena in the One Piece universe.

The catastrophic consequences of the destruction of Lulusia in chapter #1060 had a profound impact on the entire globe. This included devastating earthquakes, destructive tsunamis, and, most significantly, a significant rise in sea levels worldwide. In chapter #1089, it is mentioned that the sea levels rose by one meter across all four seas, resulting in the flooding of numerous islands and the subsequent displacement of many individuals. The revelation in chapter #1085, through Cobra's hint, that Imu could potentially be one of the original twenty rulers who established the World Government raises the possibility that the weapon utilized to obliterate Lulusia may have been an Ancient Weapon. Considering the immense destructive power of this weapon, it is reasonable to speculate that the world depicted in One Piece could have been shaped by extensive usage of similar weapons during the enigmatic Void Century, leading to the exponential rise in sea levels.

The Sea Levels in One Piece Could Be a Byproduct of Warfare

The rising sea levels could have caused numerous islands, such as Water 7, to gradually sink or become completely submerged, similar to the ancient Wano Country. The discovery of a colossal robot on Egghead Island further supports the possibility of technologically advanced weaponry existing during the Void Century, utilizing highly efficient fuel alternatives instead of Imu's Mother Flame. This advanced weaponry could also offer an explanation for the presence of the oceanic hole at Enies Lobby. The resemblance between the circular waterfalls found where Lulusia once stood and the one at Enies Lobby is striking. Although the destination of the water at the base of these waterfalls remains uncertain, a plausible hypothesis suggests that the hole is, in fact, a void, resulting in the displacement of all the previous water and consequently causing the rising sea levels.

Enies Lobby Could Have Been Created During the Void Century Using an Ancient Weapon

It is highly likely that the immense hole found at Enies Lobby was created during the mysterious Void Century, utilizing the very same weapon employed on Lulusia. The relentless usage of this formidable weapon during that extensive conflict may have resulted in such a drastic rise in sea levels that the majority of the world's landmass has become submerged, leaving only the elevated Red Line intact. This Red Line, often described as the dwelling place of the "gods," was presumably situated at one of the highest elevations worldwide. This revelation could shed light on why the Celestial Dragons forcefully removed and persecuted the original inhabitants of the Red Line, the Lunarians. Undoubtedly, fans would be left astounded if the world of One Piece holds its current appearance because Imu and the World Government utilized a destructive weapon in the past, ultimately molding the world according to their desires.
