Who is the Legendary Iron Giant? | Did Vegapunk Reveal Its True Identity!
In ONE PIECE Chapter 1116, York informed the Five Elders that the Iron Giant is protecting the Den Den Mushi used for broadcasting. However, wasn’t the Iron Giant in a dormant state due to a lack of energy until just recently? This time, let’s delve into the relationship between Vegapunk and the Iron Giant!
Vegapunk and the Iron Giant
In ONE PIECE Chapter 1116, York told the Five Elders that the Iron Giant is guarding the broadcasting Den Den Mushi, suggesting that the spotlight will likely be on the Iron Giant starting in Chapter 1117. However, Vegapunk mentioned that he doesn’t know much about the Iron Giant.
What we do know is that the Iron Giant was created 900 years ago. It appeared at the Holy Land of Mary Geoise 200 years ago, seemingly from nowhere, but it ran out of energy and stopped before accomplishing anything. The scientists at the time were ordered to completely dispose of it, but they secretly preserved it as a valuable sample, leading to its existence today.
Vegapunk only knows these facts about the Iron Giant, including the fact that it’s not operational and that he doesn’t know how to activate it. In other words, the Iron Giant, without the ability to function, was nothing more than an incomprehensible scrap of metal. Entrusting the protection of the broadcasting Den Den Mushi to such an entity seems like a risky move. However, based on what we’ve seen in Chapter 1116, the Iron Giant appears to be impervious to Navy weapons and flames, leading Vegapunk to place great trust in its durability.
In the past, I speculated that the Iron Giant’s armor might not be iron at all, but the same material as Poneglyphs. Considering that something made 900 years ago has neither rusted nor decayed and remains just as durable, this possibility seems likely. Poneglyphs are indestructible by human means, so if the Iron Giant is made from the same material, it makes sense that Vegapunk would choose to hide and protect the broadcasting Den Den Mushi inside it.
I can’t help but wonder if Vegapunk knows more about the Iron Giant than he’s letting on…
