Well if One Piece was something material it wouldn´t make you pirate king imo.
Since Luffy treasures his friends more than anything else in the world i guess One Piece, is just the metaphorical treasure either fullfilling your dreams or just how important friendship is. @ Cino why would it be peace and truth? that´d be counterfitting the ideals of pirates and of Gol D.

Luffy did hint that he wants to travel through the seas freely and have many great adventures. But he also says that he wants to do so with his Nakama, right from the start of the story. He starts out looking for a crew, a group of Nakama he can sail the seas with and even now he's still looking for more. The theme of One Piece is Dreams and Nakama, both of equal importance.

Yes, having a powerful crew so he can realize his dreams, which is to become pirate king, is important. And the pirate king, by his own definition, is so powerful that he can go anywhere and do anything without being stopped by anyone. If anything, that kind of thing is what signifies the "final" treasure that pirates seek. Pirates becoming the king of pirates to obtain "true friendship" is ludicrous. To me, that would be a huge slap in the face of piracy and of One Piece, which described an age/world of violent piracy. |

Firstly we like to retain the term Nakama in Japanese because its a term that carries a significance and meaning that can't be fully translated into English. Its not just friendship, crew, comrade or family, it carries something very similar but neither of those does can carry well enough. And like I said, you got the order wrong. You don't become the Pirate King to obtain 'true friendship' or Nakama. Its your Nakama that will help you become the Pirate King. If paper = Pirate king and ash = Nakama. What you got was 'burning ash to get paper'. If you do not have great Nakama in the first place, you can't be the Pirate King.

Edit: Actually, after reading this thread, I find the idea of One Piece having something to do with the void century and overthrowing the WG very likely. I forgot about that particular chapter that covers the idea of the WG doing something evil in the past and trying to conceal it. Very interesting! My thanks for that Last edited by DSDSSDWE; 2009-02-08 at 20:35. |

So its highly possible what you said is possible. Because I mean the way the World Government does things and the people who manipulate there power even thougt there high rank are even more evil than pirates. |

I think One Piece may not be anything like a weapon or treasure...
I saw someone on here say it was his flag... I agree. If not his flag (or something else he might treasure)... It may just be the "value of the journey" or something of that nature |

...
The youth thing doctorine goes on about and flower ossan/lighthouse guy (they suspiciously could be members of Gol’s crew or juz people influenced by his Will of D) seem to have could be it (one piece -that'd suck...) but i wonder... Is Roger executed coz of knowing void history or sumthin (?) or does he turn himself in (?) why does everyone but Roger live (?) does he turn himself in so they’ll survive (?) who, exactly was ABLE to catch Roger, the King? On the swimsuit theory... does it undo side effects of devil fruits?!? I like the idea bout Ace or Nami clones - that is, depending on yer gender of course .... Or it could be a devil fruit that allows ya to eat more than one fruit or completely undoes a former ability done by another fruit or since some give ya certain abilities all the antidotes will be there or mebbe the book of Fruits will be included - along with all unfound fruits - and who was meant to find em or sumthin otherworldly (a.k.a. that meant dumb) like that...
