In the world of One Piece, giants have always played a crucial role, and episode 1096, titled “A Forbidden Piece of History! A Theory Concerning a Kingdom,” dives deep into their importance.
This episode uncovers significant historical secrets of the One Piece universe, highlighting the giants’ role in preserving this history.
Vegapunk’s Big Reveal: Why Ohara Was Destroyed?
The episode starts with Vegapunk Shaka inviting some Straw Hat Pirates into Egghead’s Labophase.
Here, Vegapunk reveals a dark truth: the World Government destroyed Ohara because its scholars learned too much about the Ancient Kingdom and the Void Century.
But the story didn’t end there; the scholars’ research survived Ohara’s destruction, thanks to Jaguar D. Saul and a group of giants.
These giants, forming the New Giant Warrior Pirates, saved Ohara’s books and brought them to Elbaf, keeping the truth alive.
The New Giant Warrior Pirates: Guardians of History
After the original Giant Warrior Pirates disbanded, a new group, inspired by the legends of Dorry and Brogy, was formed by Hajrudin.
This new crew aimed to honor their predecessors’ legacy. Hajrudin, alongside childhood friends, set out to Ohara, where they rescued the scholars’ books from destruction, unknowingly preserving vital history.
