What is the tree of Elbaf?
me someday somewhere I’ll finally see the light I’ve been search for everywhere that’s aari e third one piece opening forgot some of the lyrics that’s the English version back when they had the English versions of all the openings but anyway okay so that that’s the world and this is a tree and if you put them together you get the world tree this is this is a marvelous interpretation of idrasil okay so in the last chapter in this Epic full page spread at the end uh we got Loki which okay I mean like Loki
What country is Elbaf based on?
the our csed Prince of the Giants killed his father has one of the you know most powerful devil fruits in the entire story whatever I was more excited about the tree okay so um this is what it looks like uh we see part of it uh back during big mom’s backstory and it’s the cool thing about that is when you look at the backstory image of elb you could see the tree but you can also see these other lines next to it people used to think those were other trees that was like more trees in the background like
there were multiple eils which okay I guess we know there’s at least two there’s this one the actual one and then there’s the one in Rad’s diarama that’s like the fake idril so I guess there’s at least two but anyway no those were not other trees those were uh most likely the waterfalls because we see coming out of idrasil there’s like a bunch of waterfalls like off to the top and the side and they just pull over the side of the island so that’s what most likely they were um you know I would
when will elbaf arc start
imagine because this tree is just so freaking big whenever it rains you know there’s probably like lakes and ponds and rivers and everything that exist within the canopy of this tree like in the actual wood of the trunk of the tree itself and then those you know Rivers pull out and they just you know fall off of the tree off to the side so that’s pretty cool um but yeah we we’ve seen some shots of it before we could tell that the trunk was was pretty damn thick for this tree but now we see it in full
What is the tree of Elbaf?
scale and and in order for us to get the full scale of idrasil Oda had to zoom out like big time okay so that’s one thing I want to bring up at the end of that chapter when we see uh the adril understand that this is way out in the ocean that we are are seeing this island because that’s the only way you could see it in full scale like now I only got my crappy version here but this little uh little box thing right here this is the castle that was the Detention Center the giant prison that road and I guess
Is Elbaf under Shanks?
the new giant pirates live in maybe that’s like their home base or whatever and that’s where the diarama was like the little Lego City this is a giant castle this this little square right here not just a normal Castle a normal Castle would be big enough but this is a castle intended to be a prison facility for Giants who on average are about 10 times taller than a human being a human being is like a doll or an action figure in a Giant’s hand just a normal giant we’re not even talking about the bigger
Is Elbaf the most powerful country?
just have it be that and have us run around the world tree I’d be happy with that okay so anyway um yeah uh we got a couple of things to note here so uh Point number one uh notice the three different tiar we kind of have on the tree okay so we have the bottom part of it there that’s where Loki is imprisoned down here uh these are all mountains like once again Mountains on a giant Island big snow blizzard filled mountain ranges that are down here so those are like like the size of the Rocky Mountains already like that’s just that
scale then we have the giant tree trunk that goes up then we have this first layer of a canopy now there might be more stuff like in the actual tree itself like once you get up to the point where you’re in the leaves and going around all the branches and stuff there could be entire cities and towns and we’ve already established there’s definitely bodies of water in here you know what I mean so it’s not just like oh the bottom and then this part up here where we see this big fortress which is
probably like the Royal Capital I’m I’m assuming is where like you know the King used to live before he died and stuff or the current ruler whoever that is is living there right I’m assuming that’s where that is um but there’s probably more stuff like in the actual canopy we also know there’s towns and Villages down here because that’s where uh Shanks docked his ship you know for the pub and then there was also uh big mom’s flash back where she goes into the village on the Lamb’s house and everything that was
also probably most likely down here I would assume right so this is one and then up here is two and then we get to the Fortress level here we have a bunch of cannons poking out on the side to defend the island it is the warland after all then we have the giant Fortress that looks to be really built into the side of like a mountain itself or probably like the actual wood of the tree was carved out to make this thing it looks pretty imposing uh we have a rainbow over here which might be a reference to the bifrost uh you know in
Norse mythology now the bifrost is like a bridge that you can like it’s a rainbow bridge that you can like walk on that might be what it is here or it might just be a cool looking rainbow and maybe Oda just put it there just for reference who knows but anyway there’s that and then also on this stratum there is a giant sword a sword that is so giant it’s like a claymore like a great sword that stretches all the way down through this entire canopy and it seems to have lodged itself in the base of the
island okay so let’s talk about that giant sword before I forget all right so we all know about the giant Katana that was sitting in kaido’s front yard you know right here when the straw hats and the uh the samurai Alliance were sailing into onigashima for the raid we see this giant Katana and everybody was losing it over this giant Katana right they were just like this is a katana that you know like like kaido’s going to pick it up at some point he’s like like giant kaido he’s going to turn into a dragon he’s
going to pick up the sword and use it or some right so the sword didn’t really do much and I question actually whether or not that sword is a uh like an actual sword or it really is just a lawn decoration imagine it is like in a video game and kaido just completed it and he got so much money and now he’s just all the things that kaido could spend money on at this point are just like little dudah to spruce up his castle and his Camp he’s like oh man if I get 50,000 point points I could buy that giant Katana for my front yard you
know like yeah and then he did it and then there it is right so that was certainly a very big Katana it would have been big enough that no giant or even an ancient giant could have picked up that Katana right because if you look at the scale from that Katana with the ship sailing in remember the sunny is like almost 60 M tall the sunny is uh 56 M tall ores the ancient giant was 67 M tall okay okay that sword is several orders of magnitude bigger than Ancient Giants all right there’s just no way now if we’re going by the logic that
onigashima skull is an actual skull of an actual giant that lived like thousands maybe tens of thousands of years ago yeah then sure that thing could probably pick up something that big right um but there’s certainly no way that like the only creatures in the one piece world right now that could pick up that Katana and also even this sword which I think this sword is way bigger now remember the one that was in kaido’s front yard the katana wasn’t like we see the full length of this sword in yrail like it’s from the top
all the way to the bottom I don’t even want to guess how many like several kilometers this this sword is okay somebody that knows more about scaling and math and stuff might be able to figure out exactly how big this freaking sword is right and like make the calculations and stuff like that right so but the katana was we only saw like part of the katana right but the only creatures that are are big enough to actually wield this thing would be the Thriller bark creatures the the creatures we saw in the Flor and
triangle those shadowy beings in the distance that you know were just towering over Thriller bark in the sunny and they were way off into the distance as well way off into the Mist so you couldn’t even really make them out too well those things might be able to pick up that sword and use it as an actual sword okay but beyond that we don’t really have any creatures um I will bring this up because I do get this occasionally people will bring up uh during skyo when the straw hats saw well well during Gaia when they saw the
images in the sky those were just Shadows but every now and then I’ll see especially videos that do scales of like the largest beings in one piece and they’ll include the shadows in there as if like those are actual creatures and they’re not they it’s just light you know refracted off of the sky hitting the cloud and making it seem like a giant person and we saw that with Luffy at the end of skypia those are just Shadows they’re aren’t real people um but and well there are real people
projecting the Shadows but that’s it right so uh yeah the creatures at uh the floran triangle though those those do exist and those are really really massive so either that and then maybe like a really long time ago tens of thousands of years ago there could have been Ancient Giants that were so big they can lift up a sword like that like I want to know the story about that sword the katana and kaido’s front yard was kind of like an interesting set decoration this seems like it’s going to be more than that this seems more than
just an interesting piece of decoration to make elb look cool now this is this is an actual sword there was a huge being that wielded this and impaled it into the tree at some point a long time ago this is not just like like one of the Giants was like I want a giant sword to be built and stabbed into the island it’ll look cool like no no no no no this is this is something more than that okay so then we go up even further than that and then there’s a top canopy of the tree we don’t really see anything about
this we we don’t see like any towns or castles or anything sticking out of the top of the tree you can assume this is also an area that you could go in and explore as well you might also be able to go into the actual tree itself like the whale tree at zo there might be various caves and stuff you can kind of walk in and explore the inside of the tree you might be able to go down below the tree into the root system and explore down there so there’s just so much to talk about and so much to explore especially when you reference um
Norse mythology so let’s pull up this image of the nine Realms of Norse mythology this is really cool I love this chart okay so um this is then there’s a few different interpretations of idril in Norse mythology they are not all exactly the same this was oda’s interpretation right so keep in mind it’s a magical mystical God tree that’s in the realm of like astral space or whatever and it it spreads out and you have different Realms and dimensions okay the one in one piece right here that this one is grounded more to be
like okay it is a magical mystical tree but it still exists in the Physical Realm and it’s still you know prevy to things like gravity and stuff like that so you know it’s not like a branch goes out and and creates an entire universe or something right it’s a little bit more realistic here I know but but anyway so we got the nine Realms we have Asgard where the Acer live we have vanaheim where the vayar live uh the the AER and the vayar are like the Gods in Norse mythology they wage war with one
another the Acer win and they kind of are on top here as you can clearly see um melheim is the land of fire uh we have midgard which is the land of the humans we have niflheim which is the land of ice and snow which might be the place that’s at the very bottom although it’s not always like that because we know that like when Shanks was visiting the pub and during big mom’s flashback The Village was relatively temperate like a nice summer kind of weather um but maybe you know there are different Realms not not unlike the individual
branches of the tree but there are nine Realms broken up in elb and the one that the straw hats are in right now might be niflheim because that’s like cold and ice and stuff like that that’s where the castle was perhaps um helheim which is Hell the place where the dead go uh or the uh the unhonored Dead uh we have needle veiler which is the home of the dwarves yodenheim the home of the Giants and then alfheim the home of the light elves okay so these are the different Realms here on the bottom you could see
the dragon the great worm need hog that you know gnaws on the roots so there might be a giant dragon if they go down into the root system and then there’s also the hawk the hawk is I always forget the name of the hawk but here’s the thing well he doesn’t really have a name there’s some uh works of literature that call him VTO forner uh probably butchering that but it’s not like well known cuz there’s like it’s it’s sometimes confusing of whether or not that’s the name of the hawk or there’s
two haw or whatever there’s a hawk on top of the tree I’ll just call him Vader fuler because that’s that’s one word that people have for him right but need hog is the dragon that gnaws on the roots that that is something that shows up a lot okay so that’s the basic layout that you have of of Norse mythology edril okay so you know if we’re going along with that logic here we could definitely have this area up here like wherever the rulers of elb live you could say that’s Asgard okay you could
easily say that’s Asgard um any realm that exist below the tree like if you’re going into the root system that could be helheim you know that that makes sense for that the land that the straw hats are in right now it’s very cold and blowy that could be uh neheim um you know now now all the Giants like it’s Giants there not Gods although you could say there’s different families like you could say Loki is a giant but he’s part of the Acer family or something like that right you could still have that it’s just that all of
them are giants okay whereas in Norse mythology they’re kind of disting between gods and Giants you get my drift there um there could be a place that’s really hot and steamy you know and that could be moose pulheim you know there could be a place where uh see that’s the thing like so the dwarves the dwarves already exist in one piece they’re the tonata so there are going to be some you know modifications with that I don’t think it’s going to be an exact one to one but there are going to be different
Realms and at the very least you’re going to have I think at least three there’s going to be a name for the realm at the bottom and then a name for this realm where the castle is and the and the rainbow and then a name for up here so hold on a minute let’s just count like how many like okay so below is one the root system and then this would be two and then three into the canopy four up here five up here and then maybe in the tree could be some stuff there so maybe like six Seven Realms I don’t know
I have no idea how Oda is going to piece this out but also just keep in mind that there’s giant clouds too like there’s like I don’t know how tall this is like like Nami said it best in the last chapter the scale of this is dizzying okay like this tree could zoom out enough that like the very tip top of it could be straddling the white white sea it could be easily in the realm of like where Sky Islands might be floating by every once in a while right there might even be a sky island like part of it
like Island Cloud merged with the top of it okay this is where Punk records might set down who knows like they get to the very top of the tree and then weia and punk records land and then Nami is like whoa haridus how you doing we’re really high up right now right it could be something like that who knows right oh my goodness um so um yeah I mean eventually they’re going to make their way to the castle I’m just hoping that like cuz sometimes we’ll have to hurry things up in the one piece World kind of like we get to
Egghead and we’re like okay let’s immediately go to the labo phase the labo phase is where stuff’s happening it’s like we had a couple of chapters where we were down in the fabrication phase to kind of see what’s up with that but it was like no everybody needs to get up to the labo phase because that’s where shit’s really going on right okay and it’s like I wanted to explore the fabrication phase more you know it’s like okay then with wano cuz I’m a I’m a geography nut so in wano I’m like oh man
I wanted to explore Ringo more I wanted to see oh we didn’t even see K come on it’s like you go to an amusement park and it’s like ah come on guys we didn’t even get to see this place it’s like no we we got to leave we didn’t have enough time today it’s like a so that’s that’s how it kind of feels so I’m really hoping it’s not just like Luffy freeze Loki and then Loki grabs Luffy he like ha good job little man now we raid the castle follow me and then like jumps up
to the castle and then the rest of the straw hats maybe have one chapter where they’re going through the upper canopy and then they’re just like oh this is crazy yeah there’s Rivers inside of the tree oh wow nuts oh hey there’s a village okay anyway get into the castle now it’s like that’s great I want to see the castle I want to see the giant Fortress but I also want to explore this place too you know okay now how does this tie into the atom tree all right so I’m under the impression that uh this is
the treasure tree Adam that this is that uh it is connected to the mother tree Eve they are both like you know uh you know a married couple of trees I guess a Genesis of trees I guess you could say right and every once in a while there you can imagine considering Road was up to some duplicitous actions here um Giants don’t always follow the rules I guess so what if every now and then there are some Giants that want to make some extra money so they break off parts of idrasil which is probably highly illegal in B but they break off parts of
yrail and then they sell it on the black market and that’s what eventually ended up as the adamwood that Frankie purchase that he used to build the sunny I think that makes sense because you know there are going to be some giants that are like I want some money let’s let’s illegally Harvest idrasil and if they get caught that could mean death it could mean banishment right but they’re going to risk it anyway for the money because this is the best you know ship building material in the entire
world the amount that Frankie bought would not have been that much compared to like the scale and the size of the tree but it was still about uh like 200 million berries to purchase some atom wood that’s that’s a lot of money that’s a lot of money okay you know I know we’re getting into bounties right now of a scale of like well over a billion and everything like that but still $200 million or 200 million berries um or Yen for some Lumber that’s pretty that’s that’s a lot that’s a lot of dough in
fact I think well now Frankie had the 200 million he bought the adamwood and the the straw hats kept 100 million so yeah it would have been 200 million for the Adam wood that he used to build the sunny right so yeah crazy oh God okay uh is there anything else that’s like of immediate importance that I wanted to bring up about this okay I talked about the sword I talked about the um I also do find it interesting that even when you scale it out there’s only the one Castle here that has this rope like you
think there’d be more down here so what I really think this is he used to be an old prison and uh I think this is the base of the Giant Warrior Pirates or the new Giant Warrior Pirates okay because especially since we found out Hy Ruden is uh like a child of the king like he is a prince of elb basically it would make sense that he had like hey I’m going to have this Castle be my own castle and then I’m going to have a special rope ladder that’s going to lead up to the capital or something so it
might have been something that the new giant Pirates were able to utilize just specifically because of Hy ruden’s uh position and station in elbaff okay so maybe think of it like that right um the other straw hats on the great Eric they’re going to be landing somewhere down here you know on the shores you know they might even land at the Port where Shanks was at so they might even land at the same Pub where you know that giant kid was there he’s like Shanks take me with you and Shanks is like no
way you know it just like yeah where he defeated kids so there’s that there oh yeah we might also get uh an update on Eustace we might find out what’s happening with Eustace somewhere there and uh that would be really funny if they’re like sailing onto the shore and like oh hey what’s that over there and then they see Eustace like and kill her like and just like they’re like all right cool I guess we found them all right bring them bring them on Shore I guess now now what’s going to happen
right so the straw hats on the great Eric are going to rendevu there pick up kid and killer and then they’ll head into the higher echelons of the um of the tree I feel like there would have to be a way to get inside the tree right because otherwise when you land here in the mountainous region the only way to get up would be you have to scale a mountain and then get on one rope bridge to get up to higher points I think there’s more ways to get up there than just a singular rope bridge on top of a mountain maybe there is I mean hey it is
the war land after all you want to make sure that like your enemy doesn’t make it any easier to invade you know like that’s the whole reason why geography as everything began I was talking about marija and the red line the world government put their base of operations on top of this sheer rock wall that’s really hard to climb up unless you’re a badass ass like fish or tiger it’s not easy to mobilize an entire Army up the freaking wall unless you’re the germa double 6 I guess right but it’s
geography it’s like that’s a perfect defense kind of the same thing with this like if this is the warland and you got a fortress up here and cannons lining the entire upper canopy of this or the middle canopy of idrasil don’t make it any easier don’t make it easy for the enemy to invade and just climb up the freaking uh you know make a giant staircase around the trunk or something that wouldn’t make sense so there’s probably this way to get in through the uh the the rope and the Rope bridge and
then there might be another main entrance you go into the tree itself and then maybe there’s a staircase inside of the tree maybe that’s where the library was because I remember when we were seeing the library with Saul and Vega Punk it looked like it was inside of a tree I don’t know it just kind of looked like this dark place so maybe that was inside of the tree itself I I think we are going to go inside of jeril but anyway yeah I just wanted to give a brief overview today of yrail from what we saw in the last chapter talk about
notable characteristics talk about some Norse mythology oh there’s Al the four Stags there are four deer four bucks that are uh on the branches of idril that embody each of the four cardinal directions so north south east and west they’re danne davlin darer and Dura probably once again I’m not great at Old Norse right so there’s four Stags that hang out on each of like the four cardinal directions are they going to be relevant who knows I think that I think nehog at least is going to be relevant
you know I don’t know maybe they’ll go down into the roots and I kind of want for some reason I want need hog the the dragon to be like really really sad I’m picturing this very sad looking Dragon like crying and weeping and just like gnawing on the tree like he’s not happy with his job like don’t like this I don’t like to eat this tree but I have to please help me you know I don’t know why that’s the image of need hog I have in my head but that’s what I want yeah it could be he could be the last dragon
the last actual dragon in the story right you know because Kao is a mythical Zone uh MOS is the artificial zone of the mythical zone right Dragons Were mentioned to exist at one point need hog is mentioned to be a great worm or a dragon Vim so maybe he’s the last dragon and he’s really sad because all of his friends are dead maybe this is where the giant dragon Yoshi egg that was on Roger ship ended up maybe scoer gaban is down there with the Giant Egg and need hog just hanging out maybe the egg hatched and it
was need hog just throwing theories at a dart board here okay well anyway thanks for watching everybody this will be teching signing out remember vampire Berry plushy available now for limited time only check it out down below all right
