L'Arbor

## Ragnarton

**L'Arbor**, currently known as **Ragnarton,** is an island in the Paradise half of the Grand Line. It was once the Timber Lord's base of operations. After his defeat the island was renamed by its residents in honor of the person who dealt the finishing blow to him, that being Ragnar of the Devil's Luck Pirates.

L'Arbor is the eighth island visited by the Devil's Luck Pirates during the campaign.

L'Arbor used to be a nice, lush paradise many years ago, but most of this nature was wiped out by the Timber Lord. The only real material on this island are trees. The residents of the island are currently in the process of rebuilding their community, with Ragnar's wife Hertha supervising the work.

## History

Many years ago, Louis and Arbor Le'cloque were born here. As Arbor grew up, he slowly started to lose his mind, becoming a religious extremist and beginning to sacrifice small creatures to his gods. Over time he started going too far when he wanted to sacrifice humans as well, beginning to use his Devil Fruit powers to build a giant effigy housing those sacrifices and planning to eventually turn it into one massive ritualistic sacrifice by setting it on fire, killing thousands. He eventually adopted the title of "Timber Lord".

It was around this time that Louis left the island and somehow used his own Devil Fruit to travel 30 years forward in time. The majority of the trees on the island were cut down by the Timber Lord in order to construct the effigy. However, after having been gone for over 30 years Louis finally returned together with the Devil's Luck Pirates to put an end to the Timber Lord's reign and kill him if need be. Fighting and defeating two of his commanders and finally the Timber Lord himself, they eventually succeeded. The island has since flourished with Hertha as its elected leader.

Ever since the Crew left L'Arbor, the people of the island have begun the process of rebuilding their community. So far they have built houses, a statue to Ragnar, a school and other infrastructure to make the village livable. Spruce, a resident of the island and a former Commander of the Timber Lord, has been using his wood-based Devil Fruit powers to restore the island's vegetation to a great effect.

It was revealed in Episode 32 that L'Arbor has recently been renamed Ragnarton in honor of Hertha's husband and the Devil's Luck Pirates' shipwright, Ragnar III, as he was the one who dealt the finishing blow to the Timber Lord and is the mayor's wife.
