The latest chapter of One Piece did not just reveal who is One Piece's new most wanted pirate in the world, but also finally mentioned again one of the three Ancient Weapons, Pluton, whose mystery is about to be solved.

Until now, the series has shown one of the three, Poseidon (the mermaid princess Shiraoshi), and explained what Pluton is, while Uranos remains a complete mystery.
