Maxim



The Maxim (マクシム, Makushimu), also referred to as the Ark Maxim (方舟マクシム, Hakobune Makushimu), is a huge flying ark capable of flight, even into space. It was built by Gan Fall's men for Enel. Enel's power is it's main power supply while 200 Jet Dials are used as backup to keep the ark in the air for an hour if something were to happen to the Ark's mechanism. Enel used the gold from Shandora ruins as a conductor for his electricity. The ark contains a throne that is beneath a golden face and a large storage room. The gears and generators are quite large and it has a line of oars whose use hasn't been shown. It has multiple rotors and propellers to help it fly. Enel can use it to create massive lightening storms. During the Skypiea arc the ship suffered a good bit of damage, although none was crippling to the vessels ability to fly. Currently, in Enel's Mini Arc, it is currently unknown if the Ark Maxim was destroyed by the Space pirates during a large explosion that Enel saw.
