One Piece Unveils a Surprise Behind the Series’ Most Legendary Weapon

by

Weapons are a crucial part of the story in One Piece, helping to drive the plot forward. They’re not just tools for fighting; they’re deeply connected to the world and the ultimate fate of the story. While the Ancient Weapons are the most important, other weapons also play a significant role. For example, Zoro’s collection of swords, gathered throughout his adventures, are consistently tied to important events. This makes the newest weapon introduced in the current Elbaph arc potentially very meaningful for what happens next.

Ragnir, the hammer wielded by Loki, has been a popular topic among fans since it was introduced. Because it’s clearly based on Mjolnir, Thor’s famous hammer from Norse mythology, people were excited to see how it would fit into the world of One Piece. Luckily, the most recent chapter of the manga reveals what Ragnir is, and it’s a clever and unique take on the legendary weapon that makes sense within the story’s established rules.

One Piece Unveils a Surprising Revelation for Loki’s Hammer

In One Piece Chapter 1170, titled “Contrary,” Loki is attacked by Ragnir, but Loki quickly fights back, halting Ragnir’s attack. A surprising detail is then revealed: Ragnir has a bruise, proving it’s a living creature – specifically, an animal that looks like a squirrel. One Piece often features weapons imbued with the powers of Devil Fruits, with Lasso, a gun shaped like a dog, being a prime example. It’s likely the same is true for Ragnir. This also explains why Ragnir’s hammer was bound when Loki was chained with Sea Prism Stone – if Ragnir has Devil Fruit abilities, it wouldn’t be able to move while restrained by the stone.

This new take on the legendary hammer Mjolnir is a great fit for the world of One Piece. The introduction of Ragnir hints that the series might finally explore how inanimate objects can gain Devil Fruit powers. We may soon learn about Ragnir’s backstory – how it was created and why it’s guarding the Devil Fruit Loki ate – perhaps through a flashback. For now, this clever twist on Norse mythology is a brilliant addition, showcasing Eiichiro Oda’s incredible storytelling skills.
