Actually, we should review where each member of the Roger pirates are because I suspect they all did something 😊

[@thebladerunner5226]

I have a theory that Imu could be Saint Imu ,but in Nefertari D Lili's body which he stole via Law's devil fruit and that's the reason why she never returned to Alabasta and her sword is missing in front of the " Empty throne".

[@TheChickenWasStillWarm]

Solid theory wonder who was the user of the laws fruit at the time

[@hydromisk9014]

probably used Law devil fruit to grant him Immortality as well

[@sims2lovealot]

That would check out because at the very least Law's immortality ability is definitely going to come up again at some point and that would be the most fitting way for it to become relevant

[@Leonkennedy19992]

Thats a good theory. Especially since oda keeps hiding imu alot. He usually does that when we know that character already or are a different gender than expected. Like how yamato was called kaidos son and she jad a mask to hide it, but later turned out to be a woman

[@justDavidThanks]

Solid theory

[@thereal.0055]

I think the ancient weapons is build to destroy the red line but people use it to destroy islands and kills life

[@travisgames6608]

Well.. There is one other reason the Roger Pirates didn't do anything. Remember that Roger said, "They were too soon." Meaning, even if they wanted to do something, there was also a time limit or something they had to wait for that could only be attained later.

[@agdevoq]

Poseidon wasn't born yet. She's somehow needed to save the day.

[@FruggyWuggy]

Agreed. That also would help to make sense of why Shanks put so much faith in Luffy as to give an arm for him and also why he didn't go on the move for the one piece until they saw that Luffy had awakened his friut.

[@FruggyWuggy]

​@@agdevoqIt's all connected. It's no coincidence that Poseidon is born, Luffy is chosen by his fruit, and Vivi having been born looking just like Lili, all within the same generation. The question is, why now?

[@pikazilla6405]

The ancient kingdom using the weapons makes a lot of sense really. For one thing the weapons are named the ancient weapons for a reason and for another one kingdom having these ancient weapons definitely explains the power gap that necessitated 20 other kingdoms to band together and fight them

[@phoenixfirebird4221]

Here's the thing, Vegapunk learned of the secrets he knows now 3 years after Roger and his crew learned EVERYTHING. Heck, I don't think even they know everything considering there's other hidden poneglyphs around the world. Still, he is right, they knew it before him, so why didn't they take action?

Well, at the end of the day, Roger’s crew know what vegapunk doesn’t know and it seems that what Vegapunk is missing to know is what kept Roger’s crew silenced.

You talk about Roger's crew just deciding not to save the world but we know Luffy would do the same. He doesn't want to be a hero (because heroes share their meat) and it would take a hero to save the world. It is going to take some external force to push Luffy to act.

They couldn't have gotten away with that, especially after Morgan's showed what most people would assume was his dead body in the paper.

I think there was something Roger did. They were too early, but, recall that Roger whispered something to kid Shanks, something that caused Shanks to pause his own goals. And Shanks later went to find the Gun-Gum Fruit. Roger probably tasked him with finding the reincarnation of Joy Boy.

[@maxon7628]

Ppl are forgetting that the Poseidon wasn’t born yet which means that even if they tried to stop the world government, they would have been defeated. I think to stand chance against the world government you will probably need at least two ancient weapons

[@dragonturtle2703]

Vegapunk had a good reason for waiting though: as soon as he started, they’d kill him. He couldn’t learn more about this. He couldn’t invent more. He couldn’t work with the revolutionary army any more. Etc.

[@jamesvach6698]

True, and he likely knew that there would be other consequences for spilling this information. Rodger told pirates about the One Piece and Whitebeard confirmed that it existed. Both were done at the moment of their deaths because they knew that they wouldn't have to worry about what would happen next. I am sure Vegapunk knows full well that his revelations are going to be earth-shattering and there is going to be chaos. At least by waiting until he is dead to reveal this, he doesn't have to live with more guilt especially since he seems to live with enough of it already.

[@dragonturtle2703]

@@jamesvach6698 Well that, but if he is as principled as he sounds like, he'd probably have to live with the guilt of keeping it form everyone. I think it's more that he'd be delaying telling everyone because there is more that he could do. After all, he didn't even have his theories confirmed until recently with the firing of the ancient weapon. If he blew the lid earlier, he wouldn't be able to reveal that. Let alone any inventions, or aid to the Revolutionary Army, that he could still give during that time. He might even be able to find a way to reveal it without dying. And now that I think about it, if he knew about Ohara, then he might not have done this if he didn't think the World Government might be ending the world anyway, because this definitely risked triggering it.

[@jamesvach6698]

@@dragonturtle2703 Fair enough, just considering all the possibilities. Some people are reluctant to open Pandora's Box if they think that they will have to suffer the blowback from it.

[@dragonturtle2703]

@@jamesvach6698 Good point. And that is possible. Just sounds like, I wouldn't say moral, because it sounds like Vegapunk believes more in moral greys, but it sounds like he's principled enough that he'd take the blow back if he thought it was the right thing to do. So just a question of if the people had a right to know, or from a consequentialist perspective, if the harm was less than what would happen if he didn't.

[@jamesvach6698]

@@dragonturtle2703 True, he does seem like he would take the blowback if necessary. You did state earlier that he didn't know if his theories were correct or not and that could have also played a part as you noted. He did say that if his prediction of the earthquakes and the sea levels was wrong that his audience could feel free to ignore the rest of what he was saying. It is possible that he was hoping to at least get confirmation before surprising and scaring the world with what could have been an entirely mistaken theory. Some part of him might well have been hoping that his theory was wrong when he recorded this. At the same time while he does operate in morally grey areas, he seems to withhold passing judgement to some degree in his announcements. He noted early on that he wouldn't presume to make moral judgements on whoever killed him to make this announcement happen. In this chapter and the last few ones, he also states that he cannot determine who was more morally correct in the war between the twenty kingdoms and the opposition with Joy Boy in it. Granted his knowledge is incomplete and to an extent war in general doesn't usually determine right and wrong by itself only who is alive and who is dead when it is over. Perhaps part of his morally grey mindset is because he is aware that while there are widely accepted views of good and evil, there is always going to be a degree of subjectivity between individuals and groups. Clearly the Five Elder Stars either do not think of themselves and Im as evil or do not care and for all intents and purposes they determine what is seen as good and evil in the world for the most part. Yet if you asked a good number of people in the One Piece world then I imagine their opinions of the Elder Stars and Im would be quite different. There is a reason that the world government has a graveyard of skeletons in their closet.

It's insane how far the story has come with crocodile seeing how the ancient weapons can work since he wanted one back in alabasta. York is honestly kinda baka brain for not realizing the other vegapunk can withhold information too. Guess the Roger pirates are going to start moving again since vegapunk is putting them on blast so they will be hunted down like weevil did to the whitebeard commanders I feel the stussy world perspective could have been done better.

Minus all the corrupt island nation leaders. Fishman Island, Zou, Wano already don't trust the WG. Fusha village's mayor, Woopslap, and Water 7's Mayor, Iceburg, might not trust the WG.

Not sure if this is a formal theory yet but, if the ancient kingdom was very technological advanced and were able to make the ancient weapons, and there is the panel of enel visiting the moon about an ancient civilization who had the ancient weapons, doesnt that mean that the ancient kingdom were the moon immigrants? They went to earth after destroying their own planet and came wanting peace, but the world united to abolish the "invading aliens" (which we know have been on earth since at least 1100 years ago according to what robin read about the golden city) and vegapunk also said a milenia civilization. Also the lunarians are probably man made like the seraphims: Strong, tall warriors with the mother flame on their backs, who also have wings (like all the other 3 moon races) but doesn't have any record on the moon? Also we already know they were able to create clones (the ones enel met). Idk, its like they built the lunarians like pacifistas with the sole purpose of helping joyboy (which is what king has been told all his life). But with all this philosophy on egghead i would expect the remaining lunarians helping luffy because they want and not because thats what they are supposed to do. I also expect them to be the ones that created devil fruits, maybe to preserve the animals (zoans), the materials (logias), and the ideas/art of the people (paramesia) through the history.

I got the feeling that Sakazuki just didnt know any of this stuff. so he feels kinda betrayed a bit because you are basically pointing a lot of fingers at the world government and he had no idea. I get the feeling that he just naturally wanted absolute justice, that is his own driving force. So him getting mad, makes it seem like he wants Vegapunk to spill everything to him in person. Like he doesnt even know Vegapunk is technically dead right now. so all this stuff is happening over his head as fleet admiral. I would not be surprised if Sakazuki just goes straight nuclear after this, and just goes off on his own for answers

One thing that really got me thinking was the little chapter closing teaser "Those who knew the truth just laughed..." I originally though that whatever they had found on Laugh Tale was what made them laugh, but this implies that what they *learned* there is what they laughed at. They learned the truth, laughed, and told noone, and were apparently 20 years too early. This is so much information that I feel on the verge of a revelation, but just enough is held back to not quite get there.

[@VenomBGR]

It's not Uranus, dude, Momonosuke was about to say something like "So, Pluton was stolen" and got interrupted. I kept telling people that the Ancient weapon used was Pluton and not Uranus, since Pluton was described as being able to one-shot an island and i doubt that 2 ancient weapons would have the exact same power. No one believed me, they all thought it was Uranus...
