In his consciousness, upon contact with the sphere of light that seemed to be surrounded by lightning, a memory was instilled into Sig's mind...

Sig saw the person carving the Poneglyph —no wings on his back, no thick rope around his waist, and... although he couldn't see his face clearly, Sig instinctively recognized that it was the same person who had carved the apology inscription for Fish-Man Island!

Could it be an inscription left by Joy Boy?

However, unlike the apology inscription on Fish-Man Island, Sig did not sense the same strong sense of regret, remorse, and self-blame on this inscription.

Instead, a sense of "blame" permeated the air...

Then Sig saw another scene, which he didn't sense directly from the inscription, but rather seemed to be information contained within the Darn Island itself.

Sig saw a tall... well-proportioned figure who transformed into lightning and flew into the air. Then, the figure turned into a sky full of thunderbolts and blasted down at something on the mountaintop.

At first, Sig thought it looked somewhat familiar, but after absorbing enough lightning and brightening up, Sig realized it was a huge, spherical, shimmering crystal.

Immediately, a similar thing came to mind, and Sig compared it with what was in front of him—the core of that "spaceship"!

Aside from a slight difference in color, they are exactly the same.

Moreover, as it continued to absorb lightning, its color changed almost imperceptibly. Sig speculated that what the "spaceship" saw was a state of relatively full energy charge!

This is... the energy storage structure of that spaceship?

This made Sig begin to have doubts—he had previously speculated that the spaceship was either Pluton or Uranus...

The power of a single shot is like that of Pluton in legend, and the fact that it flies in the sky makes it seem like it could be called the Uranus.

However, seeing that its energy storage method is actually absorbing lightning, Sig began to wonder if this thing might be "Ark: Ark Maxim"?

Or perhaps the ancients named the Moon person's "Ark Maxim" after Pluton or Uranus?

As for the issue of its appearance differing significantly from Enel in the original work...

It's not surprising, after all, Enel was something he built himself, and it was originally a knock-off!

At the same time, Sig also noticed that the lightning manifested by the "Rumble-Rumble Fruit" user seemed to have transcended the concept of Elementalization...

If the development is deep enough and the physical strength is strong enough, it is not impossible to transform into a bolt of lightning that covers the entire sky above the island.

But now Sig felt that the thunder in the sky was developing into a "Natural Phenomenon".

And then "thunderclouds" began to condense – first came the lightning, then the thunderclouds.

Suddenly, Sig that this must be the scene of Darn Island turning into "Thunderclap Island," which is why it was presented to Sig as important information.

The lightning bolts raining down from the sky, with about 90% of them being drawn to the mountaintop as they strike, which is where the energy storage structure is located...

As for Darn Island now, it's estimated that the energy storage structure is already fully charged, and lightning is sweeping indiscriminately down on the entire island!

Sig opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was George's hopeful gaze.

"Then let's go up and see... is there anything on the summit?" Sig asked George.

After his initial surprise, George nodded repeatedly, saying, "That's right! It's something we've protected for generations!"

Indeed, the Sky Island person here are protecting the power facilities of "Ark: Ark Maxim," just as Shandia is protecting the Golden City.

However, this made the memory of that cannon shot from Sig then seem even more mysterious to Sieg.

Originally, Sig imagined both Pluton and Uranus as "the World Government destroying the central hub of the Great Kingdom with Ancient Weapon."

But if the central point of the destroyed Great Kingdom was the Moon person's "Ark: Ark Maxim," then Sig's previous idea of factional divisions was completely wrong.

However, if the Moon person were originally allied with the World Government, then the Sky Island person's current status seems very strange. They don't seem like victors at all, and the place where they were hit by the cannon fire is clearly not far from Shandora...

Could it be internal strife among the Sky Island person?

With so little information, Sig was completely baffled, able to guess at countless possibilities!

As for the empty spot next to it, where a Poneglyph should have been, after Sig glanced at it, George hurriedly explained that it had been stolen by a vicious pirate when he was very young. Many people in the village died at the time, but they still couldn't stop it...

Considering George's age, and if he was still young... Sig suspects it was Rocks who did it.

Kaido and Big Mom both believed that Laugh Tale contained something capable of shaking the world, and in the original work, twelve years later, the two even announced that they would join forces to find One Piece together.

Moreover, Rocks's headquarters were in Hachinosu back then, leading Sig to deduce that these notorious and ruthless Great Pirate were more likely to believe in these things than many "newcomers."

Of course, they didn't believe in Roger's treasure, but rather in the original Laugh Tale and the legend of Joy Boy.

The reason they don't seem to be in a hurry is because both are accumulating strength—Big Mom is having children, Kaido is exploiting the remaining value of Wano Country and conducting Artificial Devil Fruit experiments...

The Road Poneglyph of Big Mom and Kaido may be the "legacy" of the Rocks Pirates.

After leaving the place where the Poneglyph were kept, Sig briefly spoke with Shanks and asked him to go to the mountaintop together...

Examining the power structure of "Ark· Ark Maxim" was secondary; the main reason was that Sig wanted to see if he could solve the thundercloud problem!

Sig had never intended to touch that strange thundercloud...

As a user of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, one can control the lightning in thunderclouds, but it is impossible for one to merge into thunderclouds—because the thunderclouds in this world are also composed of water vapor, and there will inevitably be Seastone Factor mixed in them!

Although the concentration in freshwater is much lower than in seawater and much lower than in Accumulating Emperor Cloud, it is still impossible to maintain the Elementalization integration within it.

However, in his previous memories, Sig discovered that the thunderclouds on Thunderclap Island seemed to be... the embodiment of Rumble-Rumble Fruit) user, most likely an Awakening user!

After the figure transformed into lightning, its life force vanished, and thunderclouds gradually formed behind it.

This meant that for the next few centuries, Thunderclap Island suffered from natural bombardment, not from Devil Fruit ability, so even after hundreds of years, its effects did not diminish at all...

If this is a thundercloud, Sig wondered—could he use the power of the "Rumble-Rumble Fruit" to dispel it?

Since he was going to give it a try, Sig felt it would be better to have someone watch over him from the sidelines, just in case he failed and needed someone to come to his rescue— Shanks ' "Fly-Fly Fruit" ability was quite suitable for saving people in critical moments!
