Vagapunk is, once again, at the center of things as he continues his message and rubs salt into the wounds of the Government officials.

One Piece: The Possible True Identity Of The Iron Giant, Explained
The Iron Giant is a huge mystery in One Piece. What could be his true identity?
Now, the Five Elders have an opportunity to get their hands on this snail and stop the broadcast once and for all, preventing the remainder of Vegapunk's message from coming out altogether.
The Awakening Of The Iron Giant
The Iron Giant Woke Up With The Drums Of Liberation
The Iron Giant has been focused on quite a lot in the Egghead Island Arc of One Piece. The first introduction of the Iron Giant came when Luffy and the pirate crew set foot on Egghead. Luffy explored the island, as he always does, and when he found his way to a junkyard, he located this scrap of iron. Of course, at the time, Luffy tried calling the robot, hoping that it would get up, however, the robot did not respond to his voice. While it was unclear if someone could control the robot, Luffy came to the conclusion that the robot actually moves on its own. This proved to be correct, as in the arc, when Luffy tapped into the power of Gear 5, the Drums of Liberation actually powered up the Iron Giant slowly. With each activation of Gear 5, it appeared that the Iron Giant was being charged more and more.
I'm sorry, Joy Boy!!
Eventually, when Luffy activated Gear 5 for the final time, when he fought against the Elders, the Iron Giant completely awakened, and started walking. The Giant Immediately thought of Joy Boy, which implies that there is a connection between them. Ever since then, it has been walking, and fans have been waiting for it to play a major role. So far, the Giant has not done much, but now, it appears that all the focus is going to be on him, given that he's directly tied to the Den Den Mushi. With the Egghead Island arc currently in its climax, the Iron Giant will have a major role to play in the upcoming chapters, and fans should prepare for all possibilities. Things are going to be incredibly exciting from here on, especially after major revelations being made in One Piece chapter 1116.
The Location Of The Den Den Mushi
The Den Den Mushi Is Being Guarded By The Iron Giant
In One Piece chapter 1116, York finally revealed that the transponder snail that is being used to transmit the message to the entire world is actually hidden inside the Iron Giant. As fans know, the Iron Giant is absolutely massive, and, at the same time, it is also incredibly powerful. This Iron Giant is currently running riot on Egghead, and so far, none of the Elders have managed to stop him in its path. This is largely down to the fact that their priority was locating the snail, which they believed was on the Labophase. However, in this chapter, it was confirmed that the transponder snail was actually with the Iron Giant. Now, all the Elders will turn their attention to this Giant and it will be interesting to see how exactly this predicament will play out. Fans were waiting for the Iron Giant to get a prominent role in the Egghead Island Arc. So far, the Giant has not done much.
Elders, I've figured out where the snail is. It is in the Fabriophase. The Iron Giant is guarding it!!
He has been focused on here and there and, after he awakened, he started running a riot. He apologized to Joy Boy and, ever since then, he has been moving towards an unknown location. Where exactly the Giant is headed to, is something that fans do not know just yet. That said, now, it is clear that the goal of the Iron Giant is going to be to protect the transponder snail and potentially get to Nika as well.
One Piece Fans Are Concerned Over Oda's Health
Oda's health has the fans concerned. Here's what One Piece fans need to know about One Piece's latest breaks.
This means that all the members of the Five Elders will now be up against this Giant, and it will be incredibly exciting to see how this massive Giant fares against the Elders. This will also give fans a proper look at the ancient technology that the Great Kingdom of the past possessed, and how strong he truly is.
The Iron Giant Vs The Elders
The Iron Giant Will Be Looking To Impress Vs The Gorosei
It is quite clear for the fans to see that the Five Elders are now going to be fighting against the Iron Giant. This means all the Elders will likely descend from the Labophase and it essentially eliminates the Labophase from this arc. Currently, all the Straw Hats are planning to descend from the Labophase. Stussy and Kaku are going to be leaving as well, and that simply means that this piece of island is going to be abandoned completely. The Elders all know that the transponder snail is on the Fabriophase. This means that all of them will descend from the Labophase as well. Essentially, th story is done.
With all the action now shifting to the Fabriophase, things are going to get more interesting. First of all, the Straw Hat Pirates will descend, and at the same time, the Elders will as well. The Elders will go directly for the Iron Giant, which means that a massive brawl is going to be happening soon. The Iron Giant is going to be incredibly powerful. Fans must not underestimate this Giant, especially because it is powered by ancient energy. This is the same ancient energy that Vegapunk has likely used to create the Mother Flame, and that implies that the Iron Giant possesses the power to cause large-scale destruction. Fans might believe that the Elders can easily take on someone like the Iron Giant, however, they might be surprised to find out how strong it truly is. Of course, the Elders are still five, compared to the giant being alone, and that is where help could potentially come in the form of Luffy and the Giants. It will be interesting to see which direction this fight goes in, but Vegapunk's message will not be cut short anytime soon.
This means that fans should expect a dominant performance from the Iron Giant against the Five Elders, and that is certainly going to be very exciting to witness. Meanwhile, the Straw Hat Crew are likely to make their way out of the island, and as soon as Vegapunk ends his message, the arc will edge closer to its conclusion.
It appears that the Iron Giant versus the Five Elders is going to be the final fight of the Egghead Island Arc, and once it concludes, fans will have all of Vegapunk's message out. At the same time, all the Straw Hat Pirate crew will have found their way to safety as well. From there onwards, the world of One Piece will have changed forever, and fans will finally start moving towards the next Arc, which is Elbaf.
