One Piece chapter 1113 is set to be released on April 29, 2024, and the spoilers for the chapter inaugurated the most anticipated message from Vegapunk, which was about the truth of the world. Although he was able to only touch the subject by revealing that the Grand Line would sink underwater, fans were ecstatic over getting at least some information from the author.

Before this reveal started, all of the Five Elders were summoned to Egghead Island on emergency notice by Saint Saturn. Despite looking extensively throughout the island, none of them were able to find where Vegapunk was streaming the video from.

So, where could Vegapunk's video be streamed? Most fans speculated that his video could be streaming from Elbaf Island, but there could be a chance it is being streamed from somewhere on the island, more specifically, from the inside of a giant robot.

One Piece: Dr. Vegapunk's message could be streamed from the Iron Giant present on Egghead Island

According to the spoilers, the chapter started with the reveal of Dr. Vegapunk's giant brain present inside the Punk Records, as Saint Marcus wondered if it was alive. He later destroyed the Transponder Snail present at the site but was fooled as it was just a decoy. He was later on his way to meet the other Gorosei, who wondered if they should activate the Mother Flame.

On Nami's side, Saint Saturn appeared and tried to attack Robin, who remembered the Gorosei from the Ohara incident. Nami shouted to protect Robin as Chopper, Usopp, and Brook defended her with all their might. Returning to the screens when time was up, Vegapunk started revealing the truth of the world.

He started by confessing his crimes and stated that this stream would only start when his heart stopped beating. He started with the conclusion of his talk and stated that the world would sink underwater, without revealing any reason.

With the current talk focused on the location from where Vegapunk's message is streamed, some fans speculate that it could be streaming from Elbaf Island as Vegapunk wanted to fool the Five Elders. Similarly, a lot of other theories also exist, stating that the message could be streaming from other locations of the Grand Line.

But what if the message could be streaming from a location on the Egghead island, where the Five Elders are present? From the very start of the arc, Vegapunk was obsessed with the giant robot Iron Giant, which once raided Mariejois. The only problem with it was that it couldn't be powered up because he didn't have a massive energy source to wake it up.

However, he did signify that he did extensive research on the Iron Giant, which could mean that he could have removed some parts of the robot. But why wasn't York aware of it, considering she shared the same brain as Stella? Fans speculate that Vegapunk could have removed the heart of the Iron Giant, thus creating the Mother Flame, which was used to eradicate the Lulusia Kingdom.

The weapon was stated to have grand power, which became obvious after it eradicated a whole nation in an instant. Moreover, it could be possible that Vegapunk didn't share this information with other satellites, as he could have speculated a betrayal.

The Iron Giant also had a set of antennas on its head, which could make it a perfect source of transmission. So, Vegapunk could have removed the heart of the Iron Giant and created a mechanism in place of the heart that would activate as soon as its heart stopped, which could be the source of the stream of Vegapunk's message.
