      You can post things about the One Piece treasure here. Speculations, observations, etc.

      When I read my first volume of One Piece via American translation, (Viz) I was completely convinced that One Piece was going to be a very fancy revolver. Err.. ^^ there’s really not much reasoning behind that speculation, other than the fact that some guns are ‘one piece’, ‘two piece’, etc, but the same goes for bathing suits and fishing rods. ^^;; There was also a small revolver drawing somewhere in the inside flap of every volume, but that’s just probably for the ‘pirate’ theme.

      Ps: I was really going to wait for the blast of posting triggered by the forum's return to die down before posting this, but… meh. shrug

        Hmmm…. Sorry not to go in the same direction as you but I think
        One piece is not something "real". It might be everything that you
        have to go through and live with ur nakamas to get the ultimate goal
        (friendship, bravour, etc)

        If it would be real, i'd say it would be a golden coin 🙂

          Having seen how Oda-san operates in stories, that just might be what he WANTS you to think. I, honestly, am convinced that One Piece IS exactly what a treasure is: Lots and lots of gold. Oda has this habit of making you expect one thing and do something else instead.

          So why not make you expect something unexpected and then do something that most would except from the word "treasure"?

            Wow , i thought i had a twisted mind, but you are worse han me 😉
            (joking). Well if it's really a treasure I would be a bit disappointed
            because the story would really stop there but if it's not, then it's
            kinda an open ending 🙂

              One Piece… One Piece... One Piece....?

              I'm guessing something strongly tied to the true history, maybe the path to the resurrection of an ultimate weapon, beyond the power of Pluton or any other weapon.

                As to what exactly One Piece is, I have feeling it is very very very small. I have no idea what but it'll be small. Maybe its something that meant a lot to Roger and won't mean much to anyone else except those that have the "D" in their blood.

                As to where it is, I'm convinced that it is in Smoker's pocket. 😛 At least in subs I've seen with the first opening, Roger always says that he left his treasure right there. I always get this image that his treasure is right by the execution platform and Smoker picked it up at some point. :lol:

                That's all I got to say on that. I think.

                  I'd be really pissed if that really turned out to be the One Piece. That is so over done in stories.

                      I agree with Dark Shinobi, to an extent. It would be too easy for the One Piece to be something immaterial, and it would be a hella copout. From some of the stuff mentioned at the end of the Skypiea arc, I really think it's the worls True History that Robin is searching for. Considering what was mentioned about how the history is scattered among the Poneglyphs, it even gives the name a meaning…it's all of history, collected into "one piece".

                      Of course, there's the issue there with the treasure being Robin's goal, which in some ways also seems too...specific to a single goal within the series. While I think the One Piece being the true history would make sense, I somewhat doubt it's actually the case.

                      Do not offend the Chair Leg of Truth; it is wise and terrible.

                            i'm going to stick to my theory that one piece is a sausage.

                            or then the alternative option i have thought of, which i would personally find both very relieving and frustrating. that we would never get to know what it really is, and the choices would be left as open as they have been all along the series.

                              That's believable.
                              (But what would happen if Luffy got his hands on it???shudders)

                              It's probably a huge island of gold and treasure and whatnots! :lol:

                                I like the idea of a golden bathing suit. "The bathing suit that makes you sink!"

                                One Piece could end up being actual treasure. That's the one thing we'll be least expecting.

                                    It's…um...me? Self destructs

                                    If Oda really wants the ending to be 'The Straw Hats reaching the final island and...', it's going to be a long, long time until that. I had the gold coin idea as well, being the treasure called 'one piece'. I've also thought of a letter, you know, a letter hidden by Gold D. Roger telling them what they probably achieved when they come here.The gold thought looks interesting, but no matter how much gold there is, I really don't think it'll be enough to buy the whole world...But then, that's just me.

                                    As for the bathing suit...Is it going to be for males or females?

                                      There was a poll on a TV station I saw a while back, it was on the treasure of One Piece. They gave options like gold, weapons, antiques, money or a book. Personally I like the idea of a book. Guess how all the people would feel when Gold Roger meant his diary or something :lol:

                                        What do you think is the One Piece treasure <4kids poll. Bad grammar and stupid options. Gold, silver, diamonds.

                                        I hope One Piece is a palm tree.

                                          If it's something like a palm tree, it better be a talking one. 😛 Maybe it ate the Talk-Talk fruit or something.
                                          OH! Or maybe it has something to do with the Devil Fruit, like an island where they originated from, or a tree that bears them..

                                              Maybe it's the tree from where the devil fruits comes from, but what would luffy do when he reaches it? Obviously he would eat all fruits on the tree which would end up really stupid. I ahve a pretty hard time imagining how the story would end if the one piece was the devil fruit tree.

                                              The bathing suit theory is a threory I like much better. 🙂

                                                    One Piece may be a first coin of gold roger…. Or maybe just a words: "Your friends are the biggest treasure..."

                                                        I dunno… I kinda imagined One Piece to be lots and lots of gold and treasures, all melted and molded into one giagantic coin....or a HUGE solid gold ship, that can magically float in the water!

                                                          For some reason, I get the feeling One Piece is a ''being''. A living ''being'' of some sort.

                                                          I can't tell you why. It's just my MANLY INSTICT telling me.

                                                              .. Maybe it's a missing 'piece' of the OP world!?!? (like All Blue) >< That would make finding it, the same as make the world 'one'/whole again… But if it is All Blue, then Sanji and Luffy's goals would overlap.. so then instead, maybe One Piece could be treasure IN All Blue... but... that doesn't explain what it is.. << so, I dunno.. I understand what you mean, Mog and Ken!

                                                                Well maybe my guess is totally wrong but I think that the One Piece treasure is far more then just gold. I think that must be some kind of information that could affect the entire way of living in the (One Piece) world. It´s actually a little longer theory but heck here it goes.

                                                                First unlike in every other Pirate story Gold Roger doesn´t want his treasure to be found. In fact he is openly inviting everybody to go and get it. The fact that he was laughing before his death also gives me the impression that he´s actually poking fun of everyone who thinks that One Piece may be gold or gems.

                                                                Then there´s Dragon who rescues Luffy so that he can fulfill his dream which would be to find One Piece and become the Pirate King. OK now we all know that the World Government recognizes Dragon as a very serious threat. We don´t know the specifics yet but he is been labeled as a revolutionary (sp?).
                                                                Furthermore he was helping Luffy against Smoker in Loguetown. And when he appeared he said something like: "The world is waiting for our response/answer". (sorry I don´t know the exact quote but in the german Manga and Anime he said the same thing so I guess that´s no translation mistake).

                                                                So this means that Dragon is very interested that Luffy finds the One Piece and I´m sure that they have something to do with his revolutionary plans.

                                                                Then there´s Nico Robin who I think is a very important person here (I guess that´s the reason why we didn´t see a Robin Flashback yet). Let´s see, Nico Robin is a member of a archeologist family, she´s seeking for the true history text and is wanted by the World Government since she was 8 years old.

                                                                This is just my personal speculation but could it be that her family already wanted to find out about the true history? And maybe this true history is something that the World Government never wants anybody in the world to find out about. Maybe Robin´s parents were killed due to some World Government conspiracy to keep this a secret. And Robin´s dream is to fulfill what her parents weren´t able to do before their death. This would at least explain why she hates the World Government so much. And there´s also that one anime ending in which we see her as a child where she´s looking sad and angry at the children with their parents. It could be a hint from Oda, but it mustn´t.

                                                                Before I mention the next thought I have to make a:

                                                                    • S P O I L E R - W A R N I N G * * *

                                                                At least for those guys who didn´t read the Skypia arc yet. 🙂

                                                                Now when Nico Robin finds the Porneglyph (sp?) on Skypia she reads Gold Roger´s message there. With this message she realizes that the Rioporneglyph (sp) must be a combination of the texts of the other´s she has read so far. But what´s even more fascinating then this knowledge is the fact that Gold Roger found this information so important that he left the huge Golden Bell behind. If the One Piece would be a treasure of Gold then why should he leave the bell and the city of gold behind? I pretty much doubt that at this early stage of his adventure Gol D. Roger was something like:"A now leave this bell and the golden city behind mates! I´m sure that on our journey on the Grand Line we will find a lot more gold then that."
                                                                I mean if he was just after gold then he would have taken it now would he? But he didn´t. He left the bell right where he found it and just wrote the message down that he will tell everybody about what he has found out.

                                                                Of course everything I´ve just mentioned is highly speculative I do believe that Gold Roger, the One Piece, Dragon, the Rioporneglyph and Nico Robins past and dream somehow are all tied together. But I don´t have any idea what that might be. It´s just another fanboy theory. 🙂

                                                                Take care

I've even heard of theorys that it IS Luffy's straw hat, or that the hat is the key to is. Since he got the hat from Shanks, and Shanks knows Whitebeard somehow, and Whitebeard knew Roger, it could have come down from him…
