The call is coming from inside the house iron giant.

Wow! I never would’ve guessed Dr. Vegapunk put the transmission transponder snail inside of the Iron Giant. That’s quite the power play from someone York was convinced had no idea what she was secretly up to. Makes me wonder if Vegapunk Stella had just finished planting the snail inside of the Iron Giant when Luffy, Chopper, Jimbe, and Jewelry Bonney showed up in the junkyard way back in the beginning of the arc.

But, if that’s the case—and York is to be believed—Dr. Vegapunk seemingly had no idea she was a snitch and thief. So, what happened? My guess: Punk Records achieved sentience. It was in the driver’s seat, directing Vegapunk Stella to prepare for the World Government’s attack. It would also explain how Stella knew what York was up to. Even if she didn’t synchronize with the other Vegapunks, York was still connected to Punk Records. And it decided to act, using Stella’s body to help get the job done. I’m not fully confident about this theory but I’m sure the answer is connected to Punk Records in some way.

Hmm… Could Punk Records have also put a bit of Mother Flame inside Iron Giant as well as the broadcasting snail? The robot needs power to operate and Mother Flame is an energy source so it checks out. Here’s another thought: Is Pluton powered by Mother Flame energy too? If it’s an Ancient Weapon, I doubt it’s just powered by wind sails.
