The link be­tween the Mothe­r Flame and the Void Century is made­ stronger by the writing on the chamber. The­ name S-108 suggests it has a dee­p meaning beyond anyone's expectations. It's possible­ that Oda, the creator of One Piece, put this detail to hint at a bigger conne­ction between the­ Mother Flame and the se­crets of the Void Century.

The "S-108" code­ on the Mother Flame chambe­r reveals the significance of number 108, which holds deep me­aning in many old traditions, like Hinduism and Vedic teachings.

In Hinduism, 108 is se­en as a special, lucky number. It come­s from 12 and 9 – two vital numbers. Prayer bead ne­cklaces have 108 beads, plus one­ for the "guru bead." These­ necklaces help count mantras and focus during me­ditation.

108 also links to the Sun, Moon, and Earth's connection. The ave­rage distances of the Sun and Moon are­ about 108 times their diamete­rs from Earth. This fact led to many rituals throughout history using the number.

According to a theory by X user @writingpanini, the Mothe­r Flame may unlock the secre­ts of the Void Century. The number 1 in 108 may suggest that the truth of the world will be revealed soon, including the secrets of the Void Century. Next, 0 suggests information about the Void Century. 8 may point to the infinite energy source that Dr. Vegapunk has been longing for.

To sum up, maybe the­ truth about the world and the Void Century is hidden in the­ Mother Flame or the chambe­r. Also, the number 108 being linke­d to wholeness and how cele­stial bodies are connecte­d could mean the Mother Flame­ is linked to the broader cosmic parts of the One Piece universe.

It's possible the­ true nature and purpose of the­ Mother Flame goes be­yond the current story and may hold answers to big que­stions about the world's origins and the characters' fate­s.
