One Piece fans are impatiently waiting to know what the treasure that Luffy and his gang have been hunting for years really is. The author of the manga, Eiichiro Oda, still does not deign to give the slightest clue about One Piece to his community.
The treasures sought for several decades do not only exist in works of fiction. Does the Golden Owl mean anything to you? The treasure hunt was launched by Régis Hauser and Michel Becker in 1993. More than 30 years later, the object has just been discovered.
The Golden Owl discovered after 31 years of treasure hunting throughout France
The Golden Owl’s treasure hunt is over. Michel Becker, one of the creators, announced it on October 3 on the Discord server dedicated to this legendary investigation.
« We confirm that the Golden Owl countermark was unearthed last night, simultaneously with a solution being sent to the online verification system. There is therefore no point in moving to dig on the location you assume to be the cache. As previously announced, we verify the validity of the proposed solution », he wrote Thursday morning.
At the end of the day, Michel Becker confirms that the treasure hunt, famous throughout the world for its longevity, has just reached its epilogue. It does not yet indicate where the object was hidden. The identity of the person who discovered the Golden Owl has also not been revealed. One thing is certain, she relied on her thinking skills and her patience to achieve her goals.
Several puzzles to solve in the book On the trail of the Golden Owl published in May 1993 allowed us to obtain clues to the location of the treasure hidden in France. Note that the coveted item is not gold. This is a bronze replica to be exchanged with the bailiff in charge of the game for the real 10 kg Gold and Silver Owl sculpted by Michel Becker. A mandatory step to win the 150,000 euros promised to the winner.
The second oldest treasure hunt in the world is over, but the most motivated can still try to solve The Secret of Byron Preiss. Only three of the twelve boxes hidden in the United States and Canada have been discovered.
