Punk Hazard

Location from One Piece by Eiichiro Oda

A devastated island split down the middle — one half frozen, one half burning — from a battle between Admirals Akainu and Aokiji. Caesar Clown used the ruins as a secret laboratory for weapons of mass destruction.

Punk Hazard is what happens when absolute power clashes without restraint. Akainu and Aokiji fought here for ten days over the position of Fleet Admiral, and their Devil Fruit powers permanently transformed the island's climate — half magma, half ice, forever. The World Government abandoned it, and Caesar Clown moved in to conduct experiments too monstrous even for Vegapunk's ethics: gigantification drugs tested on kidnapped children, chemical weapons (Shinokuni), and SAD — the raw material for artificial Zoan Devil Fruits (SMILE) supplied to Kaido. The Straw Hats' arrival here kicked off the chain of alliances — with Law, with the samurai of Wano — that would eventually lead to the defeat of Doflamingo and Kaido. It's the domino that started everything.

Appearance

An island literally torn between extremes. The left half is encased in ice — frozen wasteland, frost-covered ruins, temperatures lethal to the unprotected. The right half burns perpetually — molten rock, fire everywhere, sulfurous air. The dividing line is stark and surreal. Beneath the surface, Caesar's laboratory: sterile corridors, chemical storage, SAD production facilities, and holding cells for kidnapped children he was experimenting on with gigantification drugs. Toxic gas (Shinokuni) blankets portions of the exterior, leftover from Caesar's mass-murder weapon tests.
