The New Chapter of One Piece Progresses Towards the Upcoming Elbaf Arc, Revealing Insights Following Events in the Egghead Arc.
Many significant developments have unfolded on the futuristic Egghead Island, leaving readers astonished, including the live broadcast program of Vegapunk and the death of a member of the Gorosei. The world has been alerted to the happenings on Egghead Island, aptly termed ‘The Egghead Incident’. Although this is a relatively new development starting in 2022, the creator of One Piece has hinted at this event for many years, although it went largely unnoticed until now.
After the death of Saturn and the conclusion of the Egghead arc in Chapter 1125, the readers discovered a surprising connection with a chapter (and episode) from earlier. Although it may seem like a minor detail, it could potentially serve as a precursor from Oda.
In Luffy’s initial meeting with Ace and Sabo, the main character was notably seen in a distinctive tri-colored coat, featuring a design resembling a giant egg along with a chicken graphic accompanied by the text ‘Tamago Jiken’. This term can be translated into English as ‘Egg Incident’. This occurrence is something that has been in the making for several years.
Furthermore, it has been speculated that the chicken graphic on Luffy’s coat is related to Saturn. The giant egg motif also resembles the way Punk Records ascended during Chapter 1125. This implies that Oda is not only hinting at the Egghead Incident but also linking it to significant events yet to unfold.
Fans are buzzing with these discoveries. One user commented: “Isn’t it intriguing if you think about it? I wouldn’t be surprised if Oda indeed considered this when creating Luffy’s tri-colored coat.”
“I believe that by the end of the story, we will witness the major events that the author has hinted at concerning the One Piece treasure,” another user added.
Previously, in May, One Piece fans also discovered the hidden detail about the Mother Flame, which Eiichiro Oda had teased nearly 20 years ago.
The Mother Flame is a powerful substance created by Vegapunk under the orders of the World Government. This substance can potentially be used as a devastating weapon, as evidenced when Saint Jaygarcia Saturn and Imu used it on Lulusia, to obliterate the entire island in the blink of an eye.
Chapter 1114 revealed the Mother Flame’s appearance and characteristics. It is depicted as a glowing liquid contained within a celestial body. It is currently one of the most powerful and dangerous substances in the world.
Some fans have noticed similarities between the Mother Flame and an element from the side story featuring Enel. This side story, titled Enel’s Great Space Operations, chronicles Enel’s journey to the moon following the events of the Skypiea arc. This side story spanned 38 chapters, running from 2006 to 2007.
Towards the end of this side story, Enel uncovers several murals depicting the histories of the Skypiean, Shandian, and Birkan people, all of which trace back to the moon. Additionally, a mural depicting flames found in a round structure bears a striking resemblance to the Mother Flame. This suggests a possible connection between the lore of Skypiea and the Mother Flame.
