One Piece Confirms The True Power And Purpose Of Its Most Dangerous Weapon

Summary Uranus could have been used in the past to flood the world of One Piece, shaping it into its current form.

The weapon raises the sea level and causes massive destruction, altering landscapes.

Vegapunk's warning of impending sea level rise hints at Uranus being powered up for catastrophic use.

The Ancient Weapon Uranus has been one of One Piece’s biggest mysteries for many years. Yet, chapter #1113 may have given fans a few hints at the purpose of this weapon, as well as what the consequences of its use are. The brilliant scientist Vegapunk claimed that the series’ world will soon be completely covered in water, something that had already been hinted at after the destruction of the Lulusia Kingdom.

When Im seemingly used the Mother Flame to destroy Lulusia, the ocean’s level was raised by one meter, a concerning amount that caused floods and earthquakes around the world. A previous incident in the series could imply that this energy source is simply powering up Uranus. Using the Mother Flame as fuel, the Ancient Weapon can destroy entire Kingdoms in seconds.

Vegapunk's message is the final piece of the puzzle. If everything turns out to be as it's implied, it will be soon revealed that the Ancient Weapon Uranus was used in the past, possibly by Imu and the progenitors of the World Government, to flood the world and turn it into its current shape, where oceans are prevalent and landmasses are rare.

Uranus Could Destroy The World Of One Piece

One of the most iconic islands in the One Piece manga has to be Enies Lobby. What distinguishes this portion of the world is that it is currently floating over a gigantic sea opening, which never seems to be filled with water. When this island was first introduced, the hole underneath it never raised too much attention among fans. Nonetheless, the events of chapter #1086 completely changed the perception of Enies Lobby. After the destruction of the Lulusia Kingdom, an opening similar to the one under the Judicial Island was formed.

This heavily implies that the weapon used to destroy Lulusia was utilized in the past to obliterate an island located where Enies Lobby is now. Only a weapon of mass destruction could be capable of causing this much damage. It's possible that the World Government has lost access to Uranus' energy source until Vegapunk developed the Mother Flame that is now the fuel being used to power up the weapon, which is why the World Government wants the secret to its creation so badly.

The Most Dangerous Weapon Ever Created

The creation of massive craters in a zone destroyed by Uranus heavily implies that this weapon is by far the most dangerous in the world. Besides the instant destruction and death caused by the attack, the weapon also causes the sea level to rise each time it is used. Vegapunk's warning that the entire world is going to sink could imply that Imu plans to use Uranus again, this time to flood the islands of the world of One Piece completely. The World Government desperately wants to prevent this message from spreading, as it would cause the public to turn against them.

It is highly possible that, during the war between the founding members of the World Government and the mysterious Great Kingdom that took place during the Void Century, the use of Uranus caused the sea level to rise significantly, shaping the world of One Piece as fans have seen it at the start of the series. This would explain why countries like the Land Of Wano began flooding, as the weapon is capable of altering the entire world in a single attack.

It is almost certain that Eiichiro Oda, the creator of One Piece, intended for Uranus to play a major role in the final saga of his story. The Egghead Island arc may just be the beginning of the fight for control over this powerful and terrifying weapon. Even more interestingly, however, is that Uranus could be the key to finally understanding the mysterious origins of the world of One Piece.
