One Piece - Ch. 1115 - Pieces of a Continent

NAH THIS IS WILD

I hope the next time Imu uses that WMD, it is as stable as an Acme product used by Wile E Coyote.

And in hindsight, that is an apt description of the Elders and Imu. They can never capture Luffy's devil fruit no matter how many times they try.

Noooo stussy

I'm more invested in Vegapunk's lecture than the actual fights

Noooo stussy

I wonder if Kaku will save her and betray the government.

 

[SatansBestBuddy]

I more invested in all the random cameos (was that fricking Miss Goldenweek?!?)

 

[MangaField]

Sooooo, with all these cameos: when will we see Gin (& Don Krieg)?
At this point Oda either completely forgot about him or he will have the most badass and legendary comeback of the manga.

Also, not sure how I feel about the 200m flood and apparently no one knowing about entire ass continents lying that close under the water surface. Even with the government trying to silence researchers, treasure hunters, fishmen, etc it still seems to be a massive plot hole. Maybe Oda explains that soon.

And please can we get the speech without showing the Strawhats running around? No one cares, it’s useless filler.

WG actually played their cards well. Discrimination against Fishmen so no one believes them if they were to discover the sunken citys or they wouldn't want to tell the humans in the first place.
Then we have the devil fruits who makes swimming impossible which prevents the strongest guys traveling the world to ever discover this.

 

[tigerking1292]

Oh no, the sacrifice of Kid’s body double didn’t work, they put the real one in jail.

 

[BusWindow]

It's awesome to have these cameos from past locations and characters. Really highlighting the long history of this story.

I'm a bit confused by this too and I hope it gets addressed somehow. 200 meters really isn't that deep and we've seen or heard of several people with submarines. The only thing I can think of is that none of the ruins of the old world are located near populated islands.

I actually remembered that Oda said he wanted to finish One Piece in 5 years (~250 chapters) initially. And we know that he had planned the overall story from the very beginning.
So, it‘s possible the whole flood thing wouldn‘t have been such a plot hole, had the story ended after 250 chapters. But now, over 1000 chapters later, with so many characters, fishmen, submarines, researcher (who should be able to explore the oceans) introduced, it became a plot hole.
But Oda can‘t just change such a crucial story element at this point, so he went through with it anyway despite knowing himself that it‘s illogical for no one to have found the „old world“.

Which makes all those fanboy comments defending this plot hole that much more embarrassing lol

 

[DecarabiaDehuri]

Hmm... perhaps some people did find those ruins, but never made the connection because they lacked Vegapunk's contextual knowledge? Or they just assumed those could be old fishmen cities? I'm assuming that Vegapunk is the first to [explain] the ruins rather than the one to [discover] them. But yeah, the explanation that this was thought up by Oda initially, but then had to drag it out for so long, makes sense. I guess this would have been more credible and shocking had we still thought the current technology (and power level) of OP's world were those at some point of pre-timeskip. Humans weren't that super human, no submarines (I think?), big fish were a threat, and no DF diving -> no one gets to reach the bottom.

Yeah, like fishmen exist in this universe. Surely one of them could connect the dots

 

[Ilyonel]

200m??
is it deep or not?

 

[isoycrazy]

200m??

200m is a little over 600ft. This would mean the equivalent of New York City, San Francisco, Miami, London, and Tokyo could find themselves wholly or mostly under water, at least the non-skyscrapers.
