In my perspective, while navigating the colossal Jewel Tree Adam – home to various Elbaf villages – Ripley and Franky stumbled upon a mammoth, severed branch that once housed a village named Haugen. Struck by lightning, a fire erupted within the ancient tree, making it nearly impossible to extinguish. Consequently, to contain the blaze, they were forced to lop off the entire branch. This grim disclosure from Ripley hints at Elbaf’s vulnerability towards fire and lightning, suggesting potential destruction for both Elbaf and Jewel Tree Adam. Moreover, this revelation also casts a shadow over the future of the Elbaf mural in One Piece, as it may perish before our heroine, Robin, even catches a glimpse of it.
