What do we think of the Uta/Shanks connection to St. Figarland?

Is the secret weapon really a vegapunk creation or an ancient weapon? Could it be vegapunk adding to an ancient weapon?

What does Imu want with Vivi?

Crazy chapter! Can't wait for the break to be over.

Per usual great chapter, will be a long break and I bet we will be back at egghead.

Really interesting that Oda chose for them to now know where Sabo was, but very cruelly choose Lulusia. Definitely gives insight into their evil!

"Mother Flame" seems too related to the "eternal flame" concept (an eternal power source) which isn't only in one piece, and also seems to follow the same naming pattern as a "mother dough".

I think it's likely a power source, that is either being directly weaponized (similar to how a nuclear reactor, our closest technology to an "eternal flame" could be weaponized), or is being used to power some advanced weaponry (Uranus?).

i thought official translation is using Mother Frame?

Welcome to the void month, where ... there is only void century stuff happening I guess? "So Nothing happened."

Adittional thoughts on this chapter:

  • The Elder Stars warrior gods title "japanese bushin 武臣" and the title "god / Kami" of Skypia are probably unrelated.
    • but maybe still related to the "natural enemy of gods" thing of the D said in chapter 790.

Regarding the Figarland connection, I'm thinking it's possibly Uta's mother's family.

I checked One Piece Red dialogue again and the Elder know that Shanks is the father of Uta. But they only assume that Uta might be a Figarland. So that kinda leaves Shanks out of that family. They maybe don't know who the mother is but only have a guess - and that guess is of the Figarland family(?).
