The Villains Succeed in One Piece Chapter 1117, But It’s Not All Bad

The latest spoilers for One Piece Chapter 1117 reveal that the antagonists are able to successfully execute their plan. However, there is a significant factor that will ultimately benefit the Straw Hat Pirates in the end.

The current arc of the One Piece manga centers around the Egghead Island Arc, in which the crew engages in a fierce battle against the Gorosei. Initially, only Saturn ventures to the island to confront Vegapunk and the Straw Hats. However, Vegapunk’s untimely demise leads to a global broadcast in which he pledges to unveil the truth.

This prompts the remaining four elders to urgently make their way to Egghead. In addition to halting the broadcast, the Gorosei must also confront multiple adversaries. Vegapunk divulges numerous revelations about the Void Century and Joyboy.

According to recent revelations in One Piece Chapter 1117, Joyboy is believed to have been the first pirate to bring an end to the Void Century. It is also said that a major war, which took place 800 years ago, resulted in the rise of the sea level by 200 meters, leading to the submersion of most of the world. Please note, the following information contains spoilers from the upcoming chapter.

Why the Succession of the Gorosei in One Piece Chapter 1117 is Actually a Good Thing

The latest One Piece Chapter 1117 spoilers suggest that the Gorosei interferes with the broadcast at a crucial moment. In Chapter 1116, the transponder snail’s whereabouts are exposed when Iron Giant approaches the Gorosei with it. Upon receiving this information, York immediately alerts the villains, prompting them to take swift action.

In the upcoming chapter, Vegapunk is preparing to deliver a message to those who carry the name “D.”He states, “Among all of you, there exists…”

Despite the broadcast being cut off, it is not a negative occurrence due to the existence of the Roger Pirates. In Chapter 1116, it is revealed that for more than 800 years, only the Roger Pirates have been successful in uncovering the truth. Additionally, we witness Rayleigh’s disappointment towards Vegapunk for depriving younger individuals of the excitement.

Despite knowing the world’s true history, the Roger Pirates choose to remain silent. According to Rayleigh, the reason for this is that the timing is not yet appropriate. He believes that his crew and the people of Ohara acted too hastily and he does not want the Straw Hat Pirates to uncover the truth before their journey is finished.

Vegapunk states that individuals must personally experience and uncover the secrets of the world in order to form their own opinions. He also adds that he is unable to determine which side, the Ancient Kingdom or the 20 nations, was correct.

According to Rayleigh, the Straw Hats may reach a different conclusion than the Roger Pirates did. The prophecy predicts the arrival of a chosen individual, potentially Monkey D. Luffy, who will fulfill the ancient promise and bring about a significant transformation in the world.

Therefore, Vegapunk’s actions directly contradict the desires of the Roger Pirates. Robin’s ultimate goal is to uncover the mysteries of the world and share them with the world on her journey. Vegapunk’s actions undermine her character and the very essence of her motivation.

Moreover, as Vegapunk is not fully aware of the complete history, disclosing this information would not be beneficial. Therefore, although we may be eager for further knowledge on the subject, it was more beneficial for the crew that the Gorosei terminated the broadcast at that time.
