Forum:The Void Century (etc.)

'''Hello! I just wanted to say this one thing. Well... these many things. Lately, I've been searching through and through the anime and manga, and I think I have a general idea of the ending and of the basics of their world. If you don't want to know about the ending or the constructs of their world, do not read what I will put below and do not reply. (Please don't, if you don't want to know. I would also prefer that NO ONE reads this because I don't really think Odacchi-sensei wants anyone to know yet, but... if you're curious, then here you go. DON'T TELL ANYONE; IF YOU READ THIS, DON'T TELL ANYONE ABOUT THIS!!!) '''When I am done with my story, I would love to hear what you think is wrong or right about it. :) Also, it's such a long story, that it might take me a while to complete; so, be prepared for it not all the way being finished. Let's continue:

' WARNING: The following story will be very long and might'' freak some readers out (It's not some haunted, scary story; it's about Science and Life and people's emotions and the world changing... you know... it's about a book :I ). ''YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!! '

______________________________________________________________________________________________

''First, we will talk about their world. No, their Universe'':

Now, there are different types of planets with different types of gravity levels. There can be planets with low levels of gravity: on this planet, there are mostly lakes and rivers, and in this planet it doesn't really have a sea. Almost all of the animals on this planet are built to fly like birds because it would be hard to walk on a planet with not enough gravity, wouldn't it? It is small and can be as small as a moon. Planets with high levels of gravity usually are large, usually as large as Uranus or Neptune in our Solar System. These planets don't have continets, just small islands. Almost all of the animals on this planet swim, though the fish on these islands seem to be bigger than our everyday fish, making it so that they can be close to the earth's surface (even below the water's surface) due to the high levels of gravity. The One Piece World is a planet with high levels of gravity, causing the appearance of their world and the cause of the Sea Kings and Fishmen.

Let's now talk about the orbits of their moons (go to Chapter 392, and look to the bottom of page 3). They have six moons with a moon that has it's very own moon! What a crazy planet, now don't you think? Yes, the weirdest thing about these moons is: One, one planetoid has it's very own moon; now that's a little weird, don't you think? Two, the orbits are very crazy! What if... the One Piece Universe had two suns? This is completely possible! Now... I heard something before about a "Blue Star". Yes. This "Blue Star" is their other "sun". It more of just a giant star floating throughout their whole universe. There was once a civilization on a certain small planet...

It was sort of cold there with low levels of gravity. On this planet lived a civilized people as we call them: the Ancient Moon People (the cover page of Chapter 470). These ancient peoples were masters at adapting, inventing, and were adapted for any temperature they faced. They had kind royals (the man in the middle with the bigger wings and fancier clothing), inventors (the man with a wrench in his hand wearing tribal warrior clothing), and commonwealth (that last man walking with the Ancient Spaceys). They were so kind that they didn't want regular people getting hurt by making them into warriors, so they made robots that could have hearts and feelings. They wanted robots who could laugh and cry with them and not be emotionless and dull. And so, the Ancient Moon People created Pacifistas.

One day, the the Ancient Moon People's planet got caught in the large area of gravity that one high-gravity-level planet had. How did this happen? Let me explain: the Blue Star got stuck in their planet's original orbit, the closer the star got, the more the planet went downwards, away from the star. Although... the planet was still very close to the star, and because of this, everything was burned up. Because of this, the people didn't have any food, nor did they have any water! So, they dug underground to where it was cold, and made a civilization named 'Birka'. Here, they had water, and, because they were genious people, they made their own fruit! As their planet grew closer and closer to the star, the planet started to go upward, where it got stuck in the orbit of the One Piece World. Many, many years (or decades or centuries) after, they felt that it was not so hot anymore; so, they went above the ground to see that everything was changed. All they could see was black, a few moons, and a gigantic, blue orb. Since the last thing they had ever seen before they went underground was a giant, glowing orb, they though that this planet in front of them was the same culprit whom shifted their planet's orbit to another's. And so, the Ancient Moon People built a massive arc that could fly them to this world, and they brought everyone to this Blue Planet.When they got there, they created a civilized kingdom in the deepest depths of a dangerous jungle (to see their kingdom, go to Chapter 290, page 6). Here, they were happy; they had water and food.

Before they left, a royal child was born. His name was Uranus. But, Uranus wasn't ordinary. Uranus could make the clouds rain and the sun shine; it was always windy and stormy wherever he was. Uranus was The Sky. '''Although... 'Uranus' wasn't his real name. His real name was 'Gol'.''' After the civilization was built, Gol had a child. His child's name was Pluton, and he could do literally everything. He could be anything, do anything, control anything, and see anything. Pluton was so handsome that he could make even the most beautiful woman in the world turn to stone; he was so strong, he could break the air with his fists; he had an eye so pure, he could see through anything, even look into your mind; he was so smart, that it would take a normal man about (or more than) 800 years to reach his level in genius; he could make any part of his body bloom anywhere or make them come off; he could be made of rubber, fire, smoke, poison, you name it! He was The Earth, he was Life. '''Pluton's name I'm not precisely sure about... I know that it started with a "D", but that's all I know for now. What I do know -- or more like, think -- is that he had a nickname. As a child, he must have liked adventures and would spring and leap all over the place. Thus, the people nicknamed him "Monkey". He liked this name, so he kept it.'''

Everyone loved their king and their prince. Although Gol was also kind, but Monkey, in a way, was much kinder. The best part about him, yet, his biggest flaw, was that he could not say "no" to a request he was capable of achieving. One day, Monkey looked out his window and thought to himself, "The smiles on the people's faces is not real! They look so happy, and yet... they still fight with one another! It must be because of the laws...! We're not free! Even if laws keep us safe, it does not mean that it makes us happy. The people of the world smile, and yet... they thieve! Even a thieving man can smile, but is that smile real? Is this man truly happy? These people, they are not happy. So, I must make them happy! I will make everyone in the world free!" And so, the kind prince set off to conquer the world and become King of the World, so that he may get rid of all of the laws in the world. People loved him, and he had a sort of... charm to him. He quickly became King of the World and his entire civilization spread across the world. That had been his dream. To make people free and happy.

When he became King of the World, people started to ask their kind king questions and for favors. Since he had traveled through every section of the world, he knew almost more about the world than any other man. And then one day, a man asked him for one of his great powers. Of course, he could not say 'no' and created a fruit that held the power the man had asked for. This was the first Devil's Fruit (the reason for the name will be explained later). People were astonished when they realized that he would actually give them his powers. The reason? It was simple! After traveling the world, Monkey realized that he was utterly and wholly in love with every single person in the whole world. Just like a person in love, he would do anything, literally anything for them, for he believed that the world and he were the best of friends. If there was one thing Monkey didn't want, it was that he didn't want to lose a friend. People traveled from far across the world just to ask for his power, due to their greed of being something better and more powerful than they were. But because of his huge love of the people in the world, he gave them everything, including his strength (Gura Gura no Mi). Soon, he had nothing left, not even his strength!

Before that had happened, Pluton had gained a friend from below the great kingdom Ryugu. Her name was Poseidon. Poseidon was a beautiful mermaid princess with the power to control the sea kings and anything involving the sea. She was The Sea. She called Pluton "Joy Boy" because he brought her much joy, more than anyone else ever had. They were very good friends and he told her stories of the sky and what it looked like. When she asked him if he would one day bring her there, he gladly agreed and, together, they built a giant ship able to carry them to the sky (and maybe... even beyond that...?) (to see the ship, go to Chapter 637, page 8).

One day, the 20 kings from the 170 countries decided that they were angry at Monkey. They didn't want a young man ruling over them, they wanted to rule over themselves! And then, a man from the Ancient Kingdom came to them and said that he knew exactly how to get rid of Monkey. This man's name was Marhsall. 19 of the kings agreed in excitement and went to Pluton, saying to him: "Hello, Great King of the World. We are here to plead for help! There is a powerful man whom wants to kill us all! Please, we beg of you! Make us two weapons that could destroy this man for us!" Monkey hesitated before answering 'yes'. The 20 kings became overjoyed but then said, "When you deliver these weapons to us, make sure to bring to bring your whole family! We must celebrate on taking out this young man." And so, he built "two", giant weapons named after his father, Uranus, and his friend, Poseidon.  When he was done, Monkey sailed to the 20 kings with all of the royals of Shandora to deliver the three gifts. He delivered the weapons and showed them how the two weapons worked, but did not explain one important detail. One of the 20 kings set off one of the weapons that could dig into the earth's surface, creating a giant, indestructable wall to block out even the strongest enemies. Monkey became angry at the king because he just changed and destroyed his own world. But the 20 king just set off the weapon became disgusted that he would dare to talk back to him and shot him. Monkey fell to the ground, hurt, helpless, and dying. When the giant wall was forming, it was sending up a giant wave as it came out of the sea. This created a giant tsunami. As both boats were tilted upwards as they rode the wave of the tsunami, Monkey tumbled off the side of the ship and into the sea, crushing him as his and millions of other's world changed.

After the tsunami, more than two fourths of the Shandorian royals did not survive. Gol was devasted and enraged by the death of his son. He and a few others stood on the shore of the island known as Raftel, trapped because of the giant, indestrucible barrier (made of mineral ore) towering over them. This barrier is now known as the Red Line. The 'King of the Sky', Gol, stood in pain, sadness, and rage; suddenly, he let out a scream that echoed around the world and back in one line, messing up the weather through of that line. (This line is known as the Grand Line; I know, what I just said might not make any sense and that you must be thinking: "That's not... Logically...!  POSSIBLE !!!", but that's my only explantation for why the weather is messed up in the Grand Line.)

Let's continue with the story! :)

The sea did not like this giant barrier in it's way of doing it's normal thing (...floating). So, it tried to destory the Red Line. On each of the blues (North, South, West, and East), it built up a huge current, slamming against one side of the Red Line. The Red Line was too strong, thus, the current slipped up the mountain, and when the four currents met, they collided and fell down the mountain. The process of this happening over and over again created five canals, four for the four currents from the Blues and one from the Blue's current crashing together and falling down into the Grand Line.

Now, let's go back to Monkey. He had become best friends with two countries: Ryugu and Alabasta. Alabasta's king was one of the 20 kings, albeit he was the kindest of them all. He disagreed with what the others were doing and when Monkey died, he rescued him from the bottom of the sea. Although, it was already too late and the poor prince had died from being drowned and shot by the bullet of the gun. And so, the king made him a wonderful, royal tomb in his kingdom (Chapter 202, top of page 6 and 8). This is where 'Pluton' still lays, thus starting the rumor that the weapon was in Alabasta.

Back to Gol and the survivors of the giant tsunami: Gol only wanted his son back. That, and revenge on what happened to his people. He was betrayed. And by his own friends! How awful...! But, before Monkey died, he had fallen in love. He had a son named Gol D., in honor of his father, whom he loved very much. A few years later, after Monkey had died and the survivors of the Ancient Kingdom made a secret kingdom on Raftel, another child of Monkey was born. In tribute to their late prince, they called the child Monkey D.

One day, while they were hiding on Raftel, the people there realized that the 20 kings had made an orginization called the 'World Goverment' and had found out that they were hiding on Raftel. In fear of being found and killed, they made Poneglyphs out of mineral ore, writing about all of the awful things that happened in their lives, past and present. Finally, they made one person from each family go out of the city and put each Poneglyph somewhere throughout the world. The families are Monkey, Gol, Portgas, Marshall, Jaguar, etc. Although, that was the only thing they wanted out of their ancestors: to put the Poneglyphs around the world. What would they do afterwards? Hide. The D's finally 'realized' something, though they always had a small hope in them that their theory wasn't true, so they said deep quotes about it: "Freedom can't be found. No matter how hard you try, you'll never accomplish your dream and one day, if you do accomplish your dream, the world will smack you in the face and take your dream and freedom away."

How I figured that last sentence out: Remember the Shandorian's quote? "Keep thy motives in heart, with closed mouth. We are the ones who will weave history with the ringing of the great belfry." That quote is also on the Poneplyphs, except it doesn't talk about the belfry. Let's break this quote down: Keep thy motives in heart, with closed mouth. = don't do anything. We are the ones who will weave history = we are the ones who create history. This must mean that they had something to do with the Void Century, but don't you dare do anything about it. Even if you feel it's the right thing to do, it isn't.

Why would they not want anyone to help them; they're not free, right? Why not just follow by what Luffy believes: "If you life is awful, go out and make it better! Waiting for it to get better won't do anything!" Yet, the D's seem to think that if you wait for your life to get better, it will. Think of what Jaguar D. Saul said something like, "If you keep on smiling, that smile will become real." Although, he never did say to go out and make your smile real, did he? You see, the D's already went out and tried to make their lives better. More than once, too. The first time was when they went underground to hide from the heat of the Blue Star. The second time was when they ran out of resources underground and were forced to go to the Blue Planet to find help. The third time was when a kind, innocent man just wanted to bring a little light into everyone's lives. But each time, the world seemed to have disagreed with them and shoved them into the darkness over and over and over again, no matter how many times they got back up and dusted themselves off. What was the point in making a story when it never ended in a happy ending, but with death, dispair and loneliness. The D's don't seem to want help, instead they run away and hide, hoping that the world will just leave them alone. It also seems as though just dying would go against all that they believe in.

Luffy is the only man that doesn't like that idea. Luffy doesn't care if people laugh at him, or if the world pushes him farther and farther away from his dream. This is why Luffy is my favorite character. Luffy's childhood was awful! He was thrown into a dangerous jungle by his abusive grandfather where rude, stupid mountain bandits took care of him. And for that whole time, Luffy could have been sad and lonely. If he didn't keep pushing himself back up. Ace was rude and cruel to him, trying to kill him, but every single morning Luffy woke up with a huge smile on his face and followed Ace as if he had never done anything awful to him. Because Ace was told that he had no meaning in life, he saw the world as an awful, cold, dark place. Yet, here was Luffy, a cowardly, little 7 year old kid that had a lonely, awful childhood smiling his head off as if the world was just perfect. Luffy didn't see the world as Ace did, he saw it as beautiful. He is the only D. that thinks that there isn't such a thing as 'greener grass', but more of that every single blade of grass is just the same no matter if it's yellow or green. (Going off the phrase 'the grass is always greener in another man's yard'.)

Now we go all the way into the future to Gol D. Roger's era. The time for Gol and Monkey's soul to go into one Monkey D. or Gol D. has arrived. There are some limits to becoming either. When they finally reach the age of 20, they must already have certain things in their lives to become the rencarnation of one of these anceint men. To become Uranus, the man must not eat a Devil Fruit for his entire life and he must be serious about war and about... almost everything. Dragon is like this, thus... Monkey D. Dragon is Uranus. (Monkey D. Dragon being Uranus means that he has the power to control every element concerning sky at will.) To be Pluton, the person must be kind, caring, have an open -- sometimes gullible -- mind, and must eat some sort of Devil Fruit before the age of 20. To awaken Pluton's power, the person must also know about their and their ancestor's past (the Void Century) before or when the man is exactly 20 years old. To awaken it faster, the person must eat another Devil Fruit after their first. Gol D. Roger knew about the past, but he hadn't eaten a Devil Fruit.

About 22 years after Gol D. Roger's death, the world was still waiting for their Pluton; and then, a little boy at the age of 7 ate a Devil Fruit. His name is Monkey D. Luffy. Ever since that day, his chances became very, very high on becoming the next Pluton. '''Luffy is on his way to becoming the next Pluton. He has the power living within him, but it is not yet awaken. '''Luffy being Pluton means that he can eat any Devil Fruit on the Blue Planet without using SAD and not die.

Let's talk about Monkey D. Garp, shall we? Now, I don't think that Garp is as stupid as he leads us to believe, just like Luffy. Luffy is not stupid, you can tell that when he becomes insanely, inhumanely genius when he starts fighting. Garp is the same exact way. He's a D. Who, here, reading this, thinks that the D's are born just loving the World Goverment? What in the world would make Garp like the World Goverment? What if he doesn't...? All of the Navy soldiers respect and honor the 5 Elders and would never doubt them for a second -- except for two. Sengoku and Garp. It's as if they're the only ones in the World Goverment that aren't blind. It seemed as though Sengoku finally had enough of the Navy and just quit, leaving Aojiki and Akainu to fight an awful, bloody war. At this point, Garp says that he's quit being the Vice Admiral. And then... Garp stays...? No! Sengoku stays, too! How strange... Sengoku didn't want to lead because he had had enough, but then... he stays...? A little odd, don't you agree? Let's order it all together: ​A little odd, this situation is, isn't it? Yes... quite... Why would Sengoku come back when Garp says that he also quits...? What if Garp is doing something in the Navy? Something that only Sengoku knows about? What if they're... guarding the Rio Poneglyph? It does need a guard; after all, don't the 5 Elders not want anyone to know about the history in the Void Century? If this was found and read and actually understood, someone would tell the whole world what they Goverment has done! Why not just destroy it?
 * 1) The World Goverment kills off Whitebeard. (Rest in Peace, Edward Newgate...)
 * 2) Sengoku tries his best to handle the outcome.
 * 3) He does not succeed. When this happens, he quits, telling Aojiki to take over.
 * 4) Almost no one wants Aojiki to lead, but the high-ranking officals want Akainu to lead instead.
 * 5) The two Admirals fight; Akainu wins and Aojiki quits and sleeps on the sea (literally), traveling place to place.
 * 6) Garp doesn't want to work for Akainu, so he quits.
 * 7) Sengoku comes back, and tells the Goverment that they (Garp and Sengoku) will teach the new soldiers together.
 * 8) Garp quickly agrees and then they teach newcomers, replying that they can only teach the newcomers at the new spot for the Marine Headquarters that is near Raftel. (Or something like that, they wanted to stay where they were at the island closest to Raftel.)

Also, I think that Garp has been keeping track of time. Remember where Luffy's flashback of when he first met Ace started? It started where Garp was yelling at Luffy. By the looks of the tuxedo he's wearing, it looks like he had just immeaditally come back from the Headquarters, since he's not in his relaxing clothing (Hawaiian shirt and shorts). And he yells at him for eating the Devil Fruit, saying that it was a complete mistake to leave him in such a place as 'Fuschia Village'. He then blackmails Dadan in order to make her take him in. He's pretty desperate, now, isn't he? After Luffy ate the Devil Fruit, it was if Garp felt as though he turned into someone completely different -- different enough to throw him in a very, very dangerous jungle full of animals that could kill a normal boy. And all of this he did to make him become... stronger? Well, that sure is what he said, now, isn't it? Sure, maybe that was one of his reasons, but it definintely wasn't his only reason. If he wanted Luffy to become stronger, wasn't he already doing it? He could have done training with Luffy when he came back from the Headquarters like he used to do! At first, Garp thought that he was doing just fine -- fine enough to only do training when he visited. What had changed about Luffy that made it so that he had the need to throw him in a dangerous jungle to train. Nothing, you see. Garp wasn't merely training Luffy to become a strong marine in that forest; he was doing the same exact thing that he had done to Ace. He was hiding Luffy. Garp probably knew, of course, that leaving Luffy and Ace with a bunch of mountain bandits whom were afraid of him, so afraid of him, that they did anything he said if he merely gave them a glare. (Besides, Garp trusted Dadan, for they were friends.) This is my only conclusion to all of this: Garp knows about the One Piece, he knows what happened in the Void Century, he knows what's on Raftel, he knows who his son is (Uranus), and he also knows who his grandson can become (Pluton).

There's also another thing to this: Garp is not against the D's. Garp wanted to stay right next to Raftel. What if Garp is also making sure that a certain person (or peoples) goes to Raftel? He told Luffy right after he ate the Devil Fruit that he had to become a strong marine and join him. It was as if Garp wanted Luffy closer to Raftel. And we have no proof that Garp was bothering Luffy about being a strong marine before he ate the Devil Fruit; the only times we've seen Garp bothering Luffy about it was when he had his scar.

I would like to add this strange thing: Monkey is the first D. Because his name started with the letter "D". In tribute to Monkey, they named all of their children "D". Over time, I think the World Goverment thought that letter stood for "Devil" or "Demon". Thus calling the Devil Fruit's the Devil Fruits. This is what I think is weird: the D's are modeled off of the Ancient Mayans. I've been researching so much about the Mayans to confirm my theory. I've found a lot of proof, too. Such as that their language was very complex, having about 800 letters in their alphabet. And for ever word, they had about three other ways of spelling and pronouncing it, including with having slang (it's like the normal way of saying it, the formal way, and then slang). The royals were the only educated people, it wasn't acceptable to be a royal without being educated, the royals were also not allowed to use slang. They were the only ones in the whole kingdom that knew how to write, too. Also, a lot of people think that rubber was first invented in Connecticut, until archeoligsts found a rubber ball in the Mayan temples (it was made from combining the rubber tree and the morning glory flower). But the thing that most intrigues me is... if I have so much proof about that the D's are based off of the Mayans, then there is something very, very strange about that... even though they having 800 letters there is one letter that they do not and will never have whatsoever: the letter D. No matter how you translate their language, you can never put a D in it. (After learning about the Mayans, I'm completely fanatic about Aztec, Inca, and Mayan history! :))

Now... since Garp and Dragon are both holders of the name "D", it is highly possible that their lovers are also D's, just like Gol D. Roger's lover, Portgas D. Rouge. If we look at Gol D. Roger's personality, we can see that he is much like Luffy in every single way. Luffy seems to be totally asexual, so how is it that Gol D. Roger fell in love and had a child? We can see that the both of them were in love: Roger telling Garp to protect his child and Rouge, and Rouge crying after learning that Roger had died, and Rouge saying that Ace's name would be "Gol D. Ace", naming her child the name her lover would have wanted and naming her son after him. So maybe... D's can only fall in love with other D's. This would also explain why Luffy seems to have no intrest whatsoever to the women in the One Piece world. Besides, if I'm right about where his ancestors came from, then it would be kind of like someone falling in love with a cow (Minotaur; that would be awful if that happened in real life, wouldn't it?). Now, if the D's can't fall in love with humans, why can the humans fall in love with the D's? Well, it's probably because deep somewhere inside the D's brains, they still have the knowledge of not being like the humans on the Blue Planet. I doubt that the humans know of any such thing. The Ancient Moon People knew that they came from a moon, but all the humans know is that they found them deep inside a jungle; the humans don't know where they came from except from that city.

I also know what it means when a D smiles at death. If you notice, D's aren't the only ones to smile at death. For instance, take Queen Otohime; she died with a smile. This means that it's not only a common D thing, anyone can smile at death. Also, at Luffy's execution -- that didn't turn out so well for Buggy and Alvida -- in Lougetown, Luffy was extremely afraid of death and was screaming for someone to save him (in the end, Luffy did smile), and in Marineford, when Edward Newgate was going to kill Marshall D. Teach, Teach was screaming and crying in fear, begging for mercy. Those points prove that it is not that D's do not fear death, it's something else. In Lougetown, Luffy smiled at Zoro and Sanji saying, "Sorry. But, I'm dead!" Now, why would he say such a thing? It was as if... he was trying to comfort them. Also, Ace died with a smile after hugging his brother and saying 'Thank you' to all of the people whom loved him. We can check if these reasons are correct by seeing what Otohime was doing before death. She was trying to comfort her children, telling them not to fear the person whom killed their mother. And she died, smiling. Yes, this is probably the answer. The D's, and sometimes other people, smile at death to tell their friends and family 'It's O.K." They probably smile because, have you noticed that whenever someone smiles a giant, happy grin, you can't but smile back? It works, doesn't it? Kind of sad, no?

Now... the World Goverment doesn't seem too pleased with the Poneglyphs, now do they? No. Don't you think that they would try and destroy them? What if they can't. It seems as though they would have to have some sort of guardian, huh? Well, they do! Each D family has their very own poneglyph they have to protect. The Gol's and the Monkey's are the strongest D's, so they protect the most important Poneglyphs. The Poneglyph that the Gol's are meant to protect is either the one in Alabasta or on Skypeia. The Monkey's are the strongest out of all of the D's, even the Gol's, so they have to protect the most important Poneglyph: the Rio Poneglyph. Think back to what I had said eariler: What if Garp is guarding the Rio Poneglyph? This could also explain why Garp wanted Luffy to become a marine, so that when Garp gets too old to protect the Rio Poneglyph, Luffy can take over. So... truthfully, Garp is kind of taking advantage of the Navy to get close to Raftel and make it so that whatever he does, it will be overlooked because he's a high-ranking Vice Adrmiral, a.k.a. "Hero of the Navy".

Alright, everyone! The moment you (probably) have been waiting for! I will now explain what Pluton and the other weapons are. Well, sort of... Before we begin, I need to talk about one thing: you know in alot of myths where it says that in the beginning there was the Sky and the Sea, and then the Sky and the Sea had a child, creating Earth? Precisely! Remember that as I explain this. Also, I'm not trying to change your opinion about anything about the ending, what you think will happen is completely fine, and I'm not trying to change your opinion; I'm merely stating mine. :) Now, we can begin...

The blueprints for Pluton showed a ship, right? That is what everyone said they saw. Now, what I was wondering is this: Pluton = Earth; Poseidon = Sea. Now, why would Pluton -- which represents the Earth -- be a ship? Usually, when I think about a ship, I think about the sea, don't you? This seems a little odd, doesn't it? So, I've heard that the weapon, Uranus, is a cannon. Cannons shoot through the air. When it's planeted on the ground does not count, probably. The action it preforms would count, though. In this case, the action is flying. Cannons shoot things through the air, it's gravity that makes them hit the ground, not the weapon itself. So, if I'm right about what I said above about how Uranus shot through the air and sank below the sea where it dug through the under-water volcanos, making the volcanos erupt, creating a thick, natural barrier of hardened volcanic rock spliting the world into two sections. If this happened, then it would be like putting your hand into a full glass of water, making each side of the water spread away from each other, doubling the size of how much water is in each side of the glass; surely, if this would happen to a world, it would change the tides of this world's sea, making it so that the islands would sink a little into the sea.

What I said wasn't answering anything, yet. Yes, I think Pluton was a ship, but I don't think it was only a ship. In Greek mythology: Uranus is a titan; he's very strong, ableit, he's not as important as other gods. Poseidon is God of the Sea; he's strong, and yet, the Sea is a minor level of strength compared to Death. In Roman mythology, Pluto was King of the Underworld and Death. Since he was Ruler of Death, which this must mean that he had the power to control whom is or isn't dead, right? Meaning, in a way, he is also -- slightly -- the King of Life, as well. And doesn't Pluto live in the Earth -- kind of, he lives in a very hot version of Earth. Death is very powerful, even more powerful than the sea. Of course, we can presume that the weapon Pluton was stronger than any of the other two weapons. But we have imformation telling us that Uranus was a giant powerful cannon, Poseidon was a great weapon having the power to sink all of the world's islands into the sea, and Pluton was a ship where the rest of it's power is unknown, it is said that whomever posses this power could have the power to destory the whole entire world. Now, think back to what I said above about the Sea God and the Sky God. If the weapon ,Uranus, equals the Sky, and the other weapon, Poseidon, equals the Sea, then what would happen if these two weapons were put together? Wouldn't this create it's "child"? Wouldn't this create the Earth, or Pluton, or... Life? This would create a very, very powerful weapon, that would, potentially, be enough to destory the world. But, you see... with every flower that dies, a seed will always bloom. After the Bubonic Plague, there came Art. When Death comes, Life will come again. For Life can never die, now, can it? :)

I must say, though... It's strange... Uranus is the Greek Titan of the Sky, Poseidon is the Greek god of the Sea, yet Pluto(n) is the Roman god of the underworld. They have two Greek gods and then they have a Roman god? A little strange, huh? Unless... he's also Greek...? His name is Pluton, right? Yet, isn't it Pluto that's the name of the Roman god? Yes. You see, in Greek mythology, there is a god named Pluton. Pluton was the minor god of wealth and riches. Yet, I'm wondering what wealth and riches has anything to do with weapons... Uranus and Poseidon make sense because then they could be weapons involving the sky and/or the sea. Yet, how could a weapon have anything to do with wealth? I'm not quite sure... I have an idea, but why don't you think about that? ;) I want to know what you guys think...!

'I might decide to add more to this; but, for now, it's finished! :)'

'I hope you enjoyed it! I tried to make it as enjoyable as possible for those whom decided to read it! :)'

'If you choose to leave any comments, please be kind, and if you leave any questions, I will surely answer them -- if you want me to, that is! :)'

'Also, this is NOT A SPOILER. IT NEVER HAPPENED. I was just listing my theory.'

'Thanks for reading and (hopefully) enjoying! :)'

Hello~! This is the author! I just wanted to say that if you don't believe in what I've just put is true and want to figure the ending out on your own, here are some things you should try or be able to answer/think about:

' What do you'' think happened in the Void Century? ''' This is one of the most important questions! To know the ending, you should probably think about what happened in this time period. I think that you shouldn't just believe anything one person tells you. Think about it! Think about if there theory is incorrect! You can't think something without having any proof about something, no? If you would like, you can save this question for last, like another question that I think that you should think about. In creating you theory about the Void century, you should possibly try to include statements about the Red Line, Grand Line, and Calm Belt, the Fishmen and the Sky People. The World Government, the 20 Kings, and, of course, the Ancient Kingdom.

''' What does 'D' stand for/mean? ''' This is a major question. We all already know that the D's play a major role in the story, yes? It could mean many things. To figure this out, you should probably research thoroughly through the comic to find out this information. Looking through real-life possiblities might help as well. You might have to research things in science, compare things in history, etc. It might help by plugging the D's into specific races/people/orginizations to find out if they would fit in. If this doesn't work... think about what would work. :)

' What events happened that maybe led up to'' the events of the Void Century? ''' It's also important to see what events would have happened to lead up to the events that happen in the Void Century (your theory version). Things that might be important might possibly by Ohara and the Tree of Knowledge, Alabasta and why they have the poneglyph stating where Pluton can be found, or Fishman Island and what the reason would be to make them hate the humans in the first place. When you've created this, you should probably look at the One Piece Timeline to see if all of the things you thought about link up well with the timeline of the One Piece World's history.

 Gol D. Roger's Quote  This is something important you should think about. Other people have already stated where his quote has come up several times: "Inheirted Will, the Flow of Time, a Man's Dream. These things cannot be stopped! As long as people continue to pursue the meaning of Freedom, these things will never cease to be!" Almost everyone in the whole crew has their own way of following this saying. You should think about this over and over again as you're thinking about the ending. The ending should probably have to involve this somehow.

''' Who exactly is Zoro? ''' I know, I know. At first this sounds weird, but this is something that needs to be looked at. Zoro says that he is the 'reincarnation of Asura'. That's a little weird, don't you think? Asura is a god-like person in Buddisim that (I'm pretty sure) is the either the partner of or is Life. When people worship him, they're worshiping Life and anything to do with it. How can Zoro be the reincarnation of Asura and what do you think this has to do with the story?

''' Who exactly is Nami? ''' Nami is strange, too. Vivi even pointed it out! Nami controls the weather not with skill, nor with mind, but with body! It's as if it's part of her blood to be a navigator/cartographor! How can anyone possibly be able to predict the weather with their body? It's not possible! How do you think Nami is able to do that? It might have something important to do witht the ending of One Piece, don't you think? (Also, compare Nami and Silk's pasts; if you think about it, they have much more in common than you think!)

''' What is/was the main purpose for the Three Ancient Weapons? ''' This could solve alot of your problems for thinking about the Void Century. There would have to have been some sort of massive ocurrence that would make the ancients of the One Piece World want to have three, powerful weapons at their disposal. Thinking about what kind of massive occurence this would have to be should probably help you alot.

 The Ancient Moon People  I, personally, advise looking over Enel's Great Space Operation. The things that happen in there seem to be very important. There are people living in space! How is this possible with their world? In the process of finding this out, you should probably research astronomy (yes, alot of this might involve looking up things). The most important thing in this whole story is when Enel goes into the Ancient City, especially when he finds writings on the walls of the Sky People's ancestors. If you look carefully up at the top right on cover page on Chapter 472. Is that just me or... is that the language on the Poneglyph? Think about it...! ;)

''' Who is Vegapunk? ''' Vegapunk is a very mysterious man... How is he possibly as genius as he is? Also, why is he working so hard and long with Devil Fruits? He seems to want to combine them with other things such as humans and animals. Now why would he be trying to do that...? Vegapunk is starts working on the Devil Fruits and then he seems to stop and make Pacifistas when Kuma comes to help him? Why would he do that?

''' What exactly is the Revolutionaries plotting? ''' Dragon is trying to take over the world; and then he stops and then sends his strongest --and seemingly most trusted -- people away? Why would he do that, especially when during the time that a revolutionary was talking excitedly about the kingdoms they conquered, Dragon told him to not be excited because they were at war. He never stopped fighting, but then why did he send his trusted friends away? Kuma was sent to the Navy (and Vegapunk) and Ivankov was sent away to who-really-knows-where and then was captured. Even was Ivankov was captured, it didn't seem like Dragon wanted to release his friend, and they had contact with the outside world and Ivankov even said that he didn't want to be rescued because it wasn't the 'right time'. What 'right time' do you think Ivankov was referring to? When is that 'right time'?

''' What kind of 'Freedom' is Luffy referring to when he talks about being free? ''' Now... Some of you might think that what Luffy means when he says this is that he wants to do/get whatever in the world he wants! He wants to eat all the meat in all of the world, even if he has to tackle people to the ground for it if he has to. But no! No, that's not what Freedom is. This is a thing called 'Negative Freedom'. Negative Freedom is being able to eat anything you want, do anything you want, etc. Postive Freedom is a thing that alot of people don't have. The meaning of Postive Freedom is 'to take control of one's life and find it's fundmental purpose'. This means you are free from fear, free from law abidding you from becoming who you want to be. This is what true freedom is. No one can be truly free. The only way to be free is be able to be who you want to be: yourself. Some people can't be this because their law permits them from doing this. If Luffy is referring to Postive Freedom, then this means that he wants to be/do something, that he can't do the way he is. At first, I think of that he's not allowed to be a pirate because his grandpa seems to make sure that he won't become a pirate; but the thing is that he's a pirate now, and yet... he still says that he wants Freedom. He's become what he's wanted to become, right? What is it that he wants, and why is that he can't get this the way he is?

' What is the 'One Piece Treasure'? ' Before you answer this last question, quickly check to see if all of these questions have good proof -- it doesn't have to be solid proof, either. The One Piece Treasure should probably tie into the Void Century, what happened before, everything momentious that Gol D. Roger and/or his crew said, etc. It's most likely not mineral treasure, too.

Well...! I hope those of you who wanted this information, like this! Have fun with this challenge (it's very hard)! :)
