The Great Eirik[2] is one of the giant longboats belonging to the Giant Warrior Pirates.[3]
Ship Design and Appearance[]
Given the enormous size of giants, the Great Eirik is an extremely large longboat similar to those used by the Vikings, sticking with the giants' Viking theme. The ship has a big building in the middle, and a cow skull figurehead. She also sports large white sails, and shields on the sides. The ship was shown to dwarf the 60-meter tall Marine battleships.
During the Egghead Incident, it was partially damaged during the Buster Call, notably from:
- Ethanbaron V. Nusjuro's Kitetsu, which cut off the ship's figurehead.[4] This was temporarily repaired by affixing the figurehead to the bow of the ship with rope.[5]
- A Sea Beast Weapon's laser, which punctured a hole in the hull.[5]
- Marcus Mars firing a energy attack which caught the ship on fire.[6]
- A combined attack from Monkey D. Luffy and Jewelry Bonney, which sent Jaygarcia Saturn flying off the ship, breaking part of the stern.[7]
History[]
Past[]
The Giant Warrior Pirates used the Great Eirik and another longboat 100 years ago, during a visit to Yuki's island. After their argument about who's sea monster was bigger began, they traveled to Little Garden, presumably on the Great Eirik.[1]
Final Saga[]
Egghead Arc[]
The Giant Warrior Pirates used the Great Eirik again after the captains Dorry and Brogy reunited with the crew. It was used to sail to Egghead when the crew decided to help the Straw Hat Pirates escape the Marine blockade.[3]
Trivia[]
- Its name is likely a reference to Erik the Red, a Norse explorer.
