What if it's just one piece of something bigger, so like the final or key piece of a treasure/weapon/poneglyph, that the government have. A bit like the main transmitter in Transformers 3.

I always thought it's something about the ancient country professor Clover talked about.
Rayleigh did say that they were ahead of time, so even if they have reveal all the secret of the void century nothing would have change . One piece could be the Rio Poneglyph or maybe Raftel itself i don't know , but i'm quite certain that it has something to do with the future fall of the WG. Whitebeard said something about "the men Roger was waiting for" and "their flames will never die" , The will of the D. and all that behind it is probably connected to this as well. The D.'s are probably the last offsprings of the people in that kingdom. Whitebeard also said that once "One Piece" is found the all world will be engulf in a war.

I agree that One Piece is bigger, it's name may even wear multi meanings. One Piece of ultimative collection of treasures, and be the name of the crown of a big treasure, but both consisted in the same treasure, thus why One Piece is so grand.

Personally I lean towards that One Piece is a big treasure with a crown (not literally crown), whereas there will be something for everyone in Luffy's crew.
Like Robin could get 2 things, her wish to find the Ponyglyphs accomplished and unlocks the secret void history which will also have dramatic effects on Luffy as the Pirate King and something else special fitting her.
Franky could find some ancient technology from the void history, Chopper could find some ancient medicine and both could by this become one of the finest doctor / engineer.

Can keep going with ideas for the crew, but think the idea of the concept is nailed :)
The crown, or master piece of One Piece, I think, will befall the captain, Luffy. It'll be something extraordinary, something really creative.
I don't like the idea of a weapon to be the crown of One Piece, but, I think it'll be something that will help him a great deal as a Pirate King.

My 2 cents on what One Piece is, I really can't wait to see what it actually is though.. so many possibilities, every post is different here :D

I think the legendary treasure One Piece will be something different for everyone....I think more than one crew will get there at around the same and see it but that only the man Roger was waiting for will see it for what it really is

i think one piece contains information about the void century that WG covered up ....in other words it might have something to do with rio poneglyph that robin wishes to find ....... also maybe there are some treasures to be find but i doubt that is the essence behind this mystery that is the "one piece" :D
when rayleigh told the SH's that they learned the true history of the world i seriously started to consider this possibility but i still don't have any ideas what that history contains ;)

I kinda like the idea that OP is "different" for everyone.Personally,i dont thing that OP is a Rio Poneglyph as it would seem like everything we've seen up till now is just the SHs accompanying Robin find out about the Void Century.That would be dumb.
If OP is knowledge about the world/Void Century,Will of D - Freedom - Wealth. that would be cool

Ah.... I think One Piece is the story! At least the time-line of the One Piece world from its past to the future as written down in Poneglyph form which reveals not only what happened during the void century, but also what will happen in the future.

The reason I think this is because it was only after reaching Raftel and having found One Piece that Roger and his group realized they were supposed to wait for someone else to do "something" that will carry the weight of all the past centuries on their back and turn the world upside down. As things stood back then, Roger being undefeated and being friends with Whitebeard as well as having the option to work with Shiki the Golden Lion, the world government could've been overturned easily if a war like the one at marineford happened at the time (I guess it's just speculation on my part and there's no real basis for this except assumptions :)).

I want to also note that till now two of the Yonkou that most likely know/knew what One Piece is (Whitebeard and Shanks) had no interest in getting to it and was betting on the next generation (Ace and Luffy respectively) being the ones Roger was waiting for to fulfill this deed.

Anyways, I think it's weird that the ones who actually know what One Piece is, from Rayleigh to Shanks and Krokus to Whitebeard, as strong as they are, wanted to wait for pieces to fall in place and destiny to unfold in a particular way as if they already know how it's supposed to turn out and just want to sit back and wait, also knowing that they're not meant to be in the middle of it.

About the previous thread.....http://mangahelpers.com/forum/showthread.php/10542-What-is-One-Piece-!-! (found it on page 4 on the list of threads lol I wouldn't expect anyone to look that far :eyeroll)

One Piece is actually Luffy's hat.

It's passed down on one generation to another (among the D s) in order to find the one who can unite the whole world (by being their friend) to fight the world government.

One piece should be something extremely rare.
So, my guess would be that one piece is a charismatic evil fishman...

NB1: Sorry, I couldn't resist.
...
NB2: Who am I kidding ? I'm not sorry

I believe one piece is the legendary devil fruit that will give the person that finds it power over 9000
to defend the world from extra power monsters and aliens.
One piece is the king of devil fruits! The original fruit of all devil fruits!

Okay..I have nothing.

This must have been said before but One Piece is most likely Roger's personal treasure.. or freedom. Whatever it is, the morals of One Piece must shine through, so if it's a devil fruit, it must be one of unimaginable power. It would follow that Luffy/Zoro/whoever will decline to eat it, and possibly even throw it away.

Maybe it's nothing, and Roger just wanted everyone to share in his world - the great pirate era may very well have been his treasure or dream, and this was the best way for him to make it happen.

---------- Post added at 08:08 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------

Whitebeard said something very interesting to Sengoku moments before his death (panel here):

"Sengoku... All of you... The World Government...
It's going to come... A grand battle that engulfs the entire world is coming!!!
Not that I care... But whenever someone finds that treasure... The world will return to surprise...!!
Send someone to find it. The day will surely come...
One Piece... It exists!!!"

Whitebeard was too awesome. But he specifically mentions that those "who carry the will of Roger" and now Ace are those who "fight for this world." Even more importantly, he hints that this will has been passed down "time and time again," most likely from the time of the Void Century. This all points to One Piece possibly being Poseidon or Pluton, but more likely a third, not yet introduced weapon, being that One Piece will incite a war.

I support this theory from an APforums guy. One Piece = United Ocean.

I've always thought of One Piece being the event or place when/where everything UNITES or REUNITES - or, should we say - where everything becomes in "ONE PIECE" :

1) SANJI'S ALL BLUE : will be, for already mentioned reasons, the place where all seas becomes "one piece" ;

2) ROBIN'S BLANK VOID : all fragments of history represented by the several poneglyphs scattered around the world will become "one", the Rio Poneglyph, thus reunifying world history in "one piece" ;

3) NAMI'S MAP OF THE WORLD : in this place, which I personally believe it to be Raftel, all the different maps of the seas will become one virtually making all the world as "one" ;

4) CHOPPER'S MEDICINE : secrets revealed by the discovery or revealed due, as a consequence, the discovery of One Piece ( IMHO probably about Devil's fruit true nature ) will make Chopper able to come up with a cure to all diseases and illnesses ( IMHO even about how to do away with Devil's fruit effects, eventually putting down the chain of hatred and wars that evil use of their powers has been causing )

5) LUFFY'S PIRATE KING : being the king commonly means to make everyone stand below your power as well as to rule everything under the symbol through which that power is carried. Do you get where I'm going? Everything will be under Strawhat's jolly roger, everything virtually will become "one piece". This would also mean the defeat of WG and the ultimate union of all countries of the world into that legendary and anciently united kingdom.

6) BROOK'S FORMER CREW : will finally return in "one piece" by "playing" (...albeit through a Tone Dial) their last song in presence of Laboon ;

7) ZORO'S STRONGEST SWORDSMAN : Same as Luffy, but with sword techniques ;

8) FRANKY ALMIGHTY SHIP : With the world now reunited as one, Franky will finally have built the almighty ship he has been dreaming of making since his very childhood ;

9?) ...even JINBEI'S FISHMAN RACE FINALLY IN GOOD TERMS WITH HUMAN'S would fit in this theory ( due to all humans and fishmen now being as "one" race )

...wondering about all these saxon genitiveS? Well :

10) Imho Raftel will be the place where everyone's and every strawhat's dream will be fullfilled and will become ONE PIECE.

The post above me is genius.
But I don't think nami's exact dream is to draw the map of the world but to actually see the entire world and then draw it but maybe its just me.
Nor do I think zoro's dream have anything to do with one piece.
Sanji, luffy and robin would all make sense. And so does your 10 point.
An interesting theory, maybe what roger really wanted was to unite the world or to form them together as..one piece.

Agreed, that post is Genius ... I have never thought of One Piece Like that, About Nami I think there is no difference Between what you said and what @Ginopastino said (Both ideas end up in drawing the ultimate map) Zorro once made a promise to Luffy to Never Lose a sword fight again in order to help Luffy become the Pirate King (Not in these words nor that is his only wish but still) And don't forget that reaching Raftel would mean beating all kind of swordsman including the strongest nowadays (Mihawk) So dream accomplished :shakefist
Remember This one

If we consider that, then One Piece is Thousand Sunny.

I don't think @Ginopastino meant that One Piece is something material something you actually can touch, I totally understand what you are trying to say ... but in the end it's just a theory. :)
