The world was rocked by Dr. Vegapunk's shocking revelations during his broadcast. He claimed that incredibly destructive "world-sinking" weapons exist somewhere, left over from an ancient war that is still secretly raging despite everyone from that era being long dead.
Vegapunk then shifted topics to apologize for something he feels responsible for. He explained that his goal was to create a new energy source called the Mother Flame to help advance humanity, but a fragment of it was stolen before it could be completed.
Around the same time, the kingdom of Lulusia mysteriously vanished from the face of the earth after a strange glow appeared in the sky above it. Vegapunk deduced that the stolen Mother Flame fragment was used to power an ancient doomsday device, destroying Lulusia. He sees himself as an accessory to this genocide.
Vegapunk theorized that the great flood from centuries ago was also man-made using these weapons, which the legendary Joy Boy apparently wanted to pass down. However, Vegapunk cannot side with either faction in their endless secret war due to the horrific destruction the weapons cause.
He then shockingly claimed that the Roger Pirates knew the full truth about the Void Century after reaching the final island of the Grand Line. Elsewhere, one of Vegapunk's rogue agents named York was baffled about how he uncovered her treachery in stealing the Mother Flame fragment.
Vegapunk ended by questioning why the Roger Pirates kept the history of the world a secret after uncovering it, as an elderly Rayleigh drunkenly dismissed the old man's ramblings about robbing the thrill from the next generation.
