⚠ A One Piece theory hill ill die on.
The One Piece planet is literally the sun, and the moon was the original planet. They ran out of recourses or space and moved everything they had to the sun so they could harness the energy from the fire of the sun. Thats why the world is flooded to keep everyone alive and from being set ablaze from the sun inside the core of their planet.
That could explain why everything in one piece seems to be so big because its literally on a sun. Also, in Ohara we see the planets are all revolving around the One Piece world. In our world we thought the world revolved around the earth, but it actually revolves around the sun.
Just as it does in one piece. Except the difference is they live on the sun. Thats why we see people in the mural on Elbaf bringing these flames out from the core of the planet. They didn't get it from nowhere they got it from the sun that's inside their planets core.
They use these flames (maybe mother flames as shown on egghead) to power the ancient weapons and that's what allows them to be civilized. Thats why Joyboy took part in flooding the world by using these ancient weapons so he could prevent others from exploiting these mother flames and to prevent everyone from being set ablaze. Maybe imu wasn't that bad and the only thing they want to prevent is the exploitation to access to the power to controlling the ancient weapons.

But there's a day/night cycle and a sun in the sky, no?
yea lol, the world in one piece has a sun and a normal day/night cycle, you can even see sunrise and sunset and shadows n stuff, so the planet being the sun theory got roasted by canon real fast :Meguminhappy: the flames in the story are more like special energy sources or tech, not "sun" core things, it just sounds cool for fanfics, but not really how oda writes his world, trust me uwu
