A Proto-Artificial Sun?
Is the Mother Flame a Proto-Artificial Sun? | A Proto-Artificial Sun?
In our world, nuclear fusion technology has led some to say that humanity has harnessed the power of the sun. The Mother Flame, which obliterated the Kingdom of Lulusia and created a massive hole in the sea, seems to correspond to that, especially with terms like “fusion reactor” being used.
The flame that continues to burn underwater gives us a glimpse of what Vegapunk might mean by “eternal energy,” but it also suggests that it’s being cooled—perhaps to prevent further growth. Saturn seemed visibly shocked when he saw the Mother Flame up close, possibly due to the blinding light it emitted, like that of a real sun. It’s possible that if the Mother Flame isn’t kept underwater, it could continue to grow until it becomes something that burns everything in its path.
In other words, the Mother Flame depicted in Chapter 1114 might be a “proto-artificial sun.” Right now, it’s being stored underwater to prevent further growth, and even in its current form, it likely generates enough energy to power Uranus.
While Vegapunk managed to create it, controlling such a powerful energy source seems to have required encasing it in its current form. If it grows any further, it could become uncontrollable. This would make it extremely dangerous, and it’s understandable why Vegapunk might have kept this hidden from the World Government.
Massive energy sources are only safe when fully controllable, but there are limits to what humanity can control. The World Government is trying to obtain the Mother Flame, but with its creator dead and relying on York to recreate or control it, the whole situation seems terrifying.
Moreover, the Mother Flame is marked with the cryptic letters “A&MU.” What could they mean?
