[edit] Trivia

  • From using Norland's Log book as a guide, it is possible to work out the current storyline of One Piece takes place in the year 1522.
  • Despite the lack of modern technology, Luffy mentions a laser, which is a modern word created in the late 20th century. Also, some navy soldiers own fax machines. Plus, Franky modified himself into a cyborg, something that is not available even in modern day technology.
  • Due to the nature of the Grand Line, each islands progress varies. Some islands like Little Garden are set back in prehistoric times allowing dinosaurs to survive, while others like Water 7 remain highly advanced with modern technology. Various factors play a part in the contributation of a islands progression such as Log Pose time change, the islands dangers and environmental conditions. These conditions on a island may also change any time, a example being Water 7, which originally cut off due to Sea Kings and suffered heavy from a lack of trade until the inventation of the Sea Train.
