If the iron giant woke up reacting to the drums of liberation, wanted to meet Joy boy, do you guys think something similar happened 200 years ago when it "attacked" Mariejois?

That's the thing. Supposedly Nika wasn't seen for hundreds of years. So much so that it became a legend. Could it be that something else activated the iron giant? There is also the strange fact the even the five elders didn't know about its whereabouts. How could it be that something so big while also attacking freaking Marijoa managed to get away without any of them seeing it? The only explanation would be that they pushed it down into the ocean and somehow vegapunk used his robot animals to bring it back onto egghead.

Again, when it comes to the activation someone mentioned the possibility of using the Toki Toki no Mi fruit to send the giant to the future. I imagine they fought a losing war (JoyBoy and his alies) and the giant was sent to the future as he was about to be destroyed. That's why he is so sorry as he basically abandoned him in his last moments. That could also be the reason how he infiltrated Marijoa as he basically just appeared out of thin air. Because he couldn't hear the drums anymore he could do only so much destruction and then he was pushed back into the ocean the same way we saw in the last chapters.

Vegapunk literally explained why the giant was at egghead. How the world government told scientists to destroy it but they hid it instead.

It didn’t get away but shut down by itself If I remember correctly

Thanks, that detail I forgot but it's still weird how they didn't know whether or not the giant was destroyed. I mean that thing is something that attacked the most important place on earth. Yes they trusted Vegapunk but only up to a certain point

It predated vegapunk. Wasn't him they entrusted to destroy it but previous scientists.

Thanks :) As you can see the other response explained the detail how it got to be on egghead.

I really hope the giant gets back on his feat to get the last part of the massage. Maybe he'll also get much stronger once he gets closer to Luffy as the drums should be louder. That way he could also do his part in letting them all escape
