Days pass and Luffy’s Mugiwara has been on the road for several years now. Surely the two-year time jump was what made up most of the duration of this trip to Laugh Tale. But how are Luffy and the others going, but all ONE PIECE characters in general, a take into account the passage of time?
Not too accurate information has been revealed so far, but there is also a calendar system in ONE PIECE. Although all of this is hardly mentioned in the manga and anime, considering that we often speak of years in relation to the moment Gol D. Roger became Pirate King, or in comparison to when Luffy began his journey.
And instead, There are two calendars in ONE PIECE. Which are they? The former is referred to as the Kaienreki calendar (海円暦) or Era of the Marine Circle, while the latter is referred to as the Tenreki calendar (天暦) or Era of Heaven. But why are there two calendars? The first that Kaienreki calendarwas mentioned and used by Mont Blanc Noland in his travel journal and dates back to around 400 years before history began and according to the discoverer’s descriptions has a calendar method similar to our Gregorian calendar.
Then there are the Tenreki calendar, quoted by Nico Robin when telling the story of Alabasta in the tomb beneath the palace of Alubarna. Not much is known about this calendar, however, since no other details were given, such as the division of the months, the passage of time and more.
Although these calendars exist, they are not currently actively used in ONE PIECE, although a third calendar may be used that Eiichiro Oda never explored. Consider yourself i ancient secrets of ONE PIECE loreit is possible that one of the two calendars will come into play again in the final stages of the story.
