Dr. Vegapunk has been one of the most teased characters in One Piece, right behind Kaido. First mentioned in the earliest half of the series, fans have been dying to know who this figure is and his significance for a long time and have only grown more curious as time goes on. It took almost 20 years and more than 1000 episodes for fans to meet him, but readers and viewers alike were thrown for a loop when he turned out to be a young mischievous woman.
