One Piece Chapter #1116 will return in the next issue of Weekly Shonen Jump without any breaks. In the latest installment, the series continued to unravel the mysteries of the Void Century and its central enigmatic figure, Joyboy. In Chapter #1115, titled “Pieces of a Continent,” Vegapunk revealed crucial details about the war that occurred during the Void Century, shedding light on the conflict’s profound impact on the world of One Piece.

This chapter confirmed that due to the advancements of the Great Kingdom, twenty other kingdoms had to unite and form a new organization, which is known today as the “World Government,” to stand a chance against Joyboy’s faction. The chapter concludes with Vegapunk confirming the existence of the third Ancient Weapon and revealing that it is currently in the possession of the World Government.

The upcoming chapter #1116 will likely delve deeper into the Void Century and Joyboy’s pivotal role in it. Vegapunk is also expected to reveal the World Government’s intentions with the Ancient Weapon currently in their possession. As this message sheds light on the World Government’s dark deeds, anticipation for One Piece Chapter #1116 is surely in the air.

What Happened in One Piece Chapter #1115?

Vegapunk Shed Light on How the World Government Used the Ancient Weapon to Flood the World

One Piece Chapter #1116, titled “Pieces of a Continent,” continued Vegapunk’s revelations about the enigmatic Joyboy, accompanied by reactions from around the world. Vegapunk’s message revealed that Joyboy’s enemy was none other than the World Government, which at that time was merely a coalition of twenty kingdoms formed to stand against Joyboy’s powerful faction. Highlighting the Great Kingdom’s extraordinary advancements, Vegapunk explained that their technology was so advanced it cannot be replicated even with today’s science.

While the message continued, the chapter also featured Stussy worrying about her next steps as Vegapunk nears death, while the Five Elders continued to wreak havoc. As the message unfolded, it is revealed that the war during the Void Century ended with Joyboy’s defeat, leaving scars that persist to this day. The war’s aftermath led to the sea levels rising by more than 200 meters, explaining the origins of the One Piece world.

What Will Happen in One Piece Chapter #1016?

The Mysterious Past of the World Will Continue to Be Unveiled

The Seraphim

Vegapunk explained that this was a man-made disaster, likely caused by a weapon, based on his research. Vegapunk further revealed that this weapon still exists, incidentally confirming that the war from the Void Century is still ongoing. These revelations clearly angered the Five Elders and Imu, so it will interesting to see how the battle in Egghead will continue, especially now that the Seraphim have been freed and could be controlled by one of the two factions.

The final part of Vegapunk’s message may address directly the World Government and perhaps expose the existence of Imu to the entire world, which would be an incredible development. The only thing for sure is that all the mysteries that One Piece fans have been trying to understand for decades are being quickly unveiled in front of their eyes, making this perhaps the most exciting time ever to follow the series.
