Grand Line in One Piece


The Grand Line is an ocean route in the One Piece series.


This is a massive marine route that circles the world from west to east. It travels along a hypothetical line that crosses the earth's midsection from north to south and parallel to the Red Line. This vast continent rounds the globe from north to southwest, which is significant because it is the only route worldwide.


The Red Line divides the Grand Line into two sections, the first known as Paradise and the second as the New World. The Blue Sea is divided into four oceans: the North Blue, the East Blue, the West Blue, and the South Blue, by the Grand Line and the Red Line crossing each other.


Because the Lines are positioned along the routes between the Blues, they are essential for international trade and travel. Because of this, they serve as both useful travel routes and barriers for both pirates and ordinary people. Three Great Powers' presence has jurisdiction over this ocean area, which is why it is believed to be the most deadly region on earth.


People from the Four Blues often call this area the Pirates' Graveyard. Many regular people manage to make a livelihood on individual islands despite the Grand Line's reputation of being chaotic and hazardous because they have adapted to their native environment. Only one crew, the Roger Pirates, was successful in fully sailing across the Grand Line, earning its captain Gol D. Roger the alias "Pirate King."


Traveling along the Line is risky because it practically ensures encountering deadly species and unpredictable weather conditions. Nonetheless, several islands—or portions of islands—are seen as dangerous in themselves. As a result, they are either abandoned, or the locals have taken precautions against the threat.

Locations at Grand Line


The Red Line splits the Grand Line into two halves. The first section, called "Paradise, " extends from Reverse Mountain to the Red Line's polar opposite antipodal point. The "New World" refers to the second half, which begins past the second Red Line station and ends at the base of Reverse Mountain.


Paradise

Paradise is the name given to the first section of the Grand Line. Those who have returned from the second half and claimed that the first half is like a paradise in comparison are the ones who gave it its name. Between East Blue and South Blue, it is located. From the Twin Cape to the Sabaody Archipelago, there is paradise.


Just a tiny percentage of the few pirate crews that are powerful and competent enough to compete in the Grand Line make it all the way to Sabaody. The Paradise region contains several explored and unexplored islands in its vast. Some of the notable locations in the region are:

Drum Island

Little Garden

Water 7

Enies Lobby

Florian Triangle

Sabaody Archipelago

Banaro Island

Marineford

Karakuri Island

Boin Archipelago

Namakura Island

Kuraigana Island

Cactus Island


New World

The New World is the second part of the Grand Line, and it is a whole new universe of adventure compared to the first half, hence the moniker. It is situated between North Blue and West Blue. Many powerful groups, including the Four Emperors, can be found along this stretch of the sea, each controlling a distinct region.


The Pirate King, Gol D. Roger, and his band of Roger Pirates are the only known individuals to thoroughly explore the New World in the last 800 years.


Similar to Paradise, New World has distinctive locations that are widely known among the pirates and the World Government. Famous places among those locations are:

Weather at Grand Line


The weather on the Grand Line is odd, and conventional meteorological laws don't apply. The weather, including water spouts, storms, blizzards, heat waves, dense fog, and many other similar phenomena, is quite unpredictable and the ocean currents are exceedingly dynamic.


There are types of cyclones that appear suddenly and abruptly. They are known to be impossible to predict.



The islands in the Grand Line each have a unique climate all year long, typically falling into one of four general categories: Summer, Spring, Autumn, and Winter. This causes the intermittent currents and weather that they do.


These islands, which range from Summer Island's summer to Winter Island's winter and each feature four distinct seasons, provide the Grand Line with 16 weather conditions. That's not including islands with climates that differ from the primary four.


The odd and unexpected weather patterns in the open waters between islands are brought on by the clashing weather patterns and magnetic waves generated from each island.


Notably, the Grand Line's first section could be more organized. One can select to cruise through one of seven possible pathways. Insane sailing conditions that go much above anything else in the first half of the Grand Line are produced by the conflicting climate and magnetism of the first seven islands.


The Islands and the waterways around them are the only places where the weather and currents are stable and predictable. This doesn't imply that it will be bright and quiet; rather, it only indicates that the weather won't change rapidly, as it does on an open ocean.


Maneuvering at Grand Line


A conventional compass won't function here because each island on the Grand Line produces its own magnetic field. One needs a unique compass called a Log Pose to travel along the Grand Line.


The Log Pose works by focusing on the magnetism originating from one island and locking onto it. The Log Pose will reset and begin locking on to the magnetism of the next island once you have arrived at the island and have been there for a predetermined amount of time.


On each island, the time it takes for a Log Pose to set varies; it could be a few hours, a few days, or an entire year.



There is only one needle in a Log Pose during the first part of the Grand Line. Alternatively, a Log Pose features three arrows for the second half. Each of the three needles locks onto one of the three islands' magnetic waves. This is because islands in the New World frequently suffer magnetic fluctuations.


As a result, you still have two alternatives if one island's magnetism is lost. Moreover, abnormalities on the island may cause variations in magnetism, with the island's unstable magnetism producing the equivalent needle jiggling. The secret is to follow the most stable needle.


The Endless Pose is a different variety from the Log Pose. This variation of the Log Pose never resets since it is permanently fastened onto the island's magnetism. Instead of taking a traditional Log Pose through a trail of islands, this makes it simpler for a crew to reach a particular island.


Trivia


  • Most of the locations on the Grand Line are well-known to people in other oceans because of the book "Brag Men." Still, to people who have never been there, they are only stories.


  • One Piece Green: Secret Pieces' databook romanized the term as "GLAND LINE."
