Hits hard doesn't it? It just feels strange that there are CONTINENTS with huge towns and castles and buildings underwater and no fishmen found it weird or even tried to consider how did all that got sunken in the first place?

Some probably did, but the whole fishman race has been suppressed as slaves or as "fish" for hundreds of years, probably to keep them from spreading the word above water.

Exactly. And who will they tell it? They would need to find historicans who are interested in those stories and therefor travel around cities which on the other hand can be dangerous.

Hell, building off of this, how would they even know that it used to be human settlements; they've largely lost the history of the void century just as much as anyone else. The average fishman might find them and think "Wow; look at these ancient ruins. I wonder if this is how fishmen lived in the past?"

Hell, and they were probably repressed as slaves explicitly because they could happen upon the evidence more easily.

Solid explanation that's more than being racist

or fishmen are one of joyboy ally which is why they got treat that way.

u/MojitoSuave May 26 '24

Probably both, given that Joy Boy is confirmed to be a friend of Shirahoshi's ancient predecessor.

They could just make multiple settlements re-appropriating all those different sea ruins around the world

200m is not that deep, so the issue of sunlight wouldn't play as big a role as it does for the Ryuu-gu kingdom, and we have seen underwater sea towns populated by small sea monsters (Jinbei cover story), and by rouge mermaids (Hachi cover story)

Since they would still be living underwater persecuting and hunting them would still be hard, so i don't see why that's not more common

Unless it turns out that it is, and Oda is not showing us, just like how there seems to be other Giant kingdoms apart from Elbaf, like the one Saul comes from
