The opening kaleidoscope writing wheel eye: the war on the top

Chapter 348 Cross Street Layout
Before parting, Jessica suddenly stopped everyone and said: "The humidity in the air has increased significantly, it may rain, everyone try to hurry up."

Carmen had never seen Jessica's ability to see the sky. She looked up at the sky and said strangely: "No way, the weather is still so good."

Although the other partners believed in Jessica, they couldn't help being a little puzzled when they saw that the sun was still high in the sky and there was no sign of a change in the sky.

Jessica didn't take it seriously and took out a round barometer from her pocket, which she also just bought in Rogue Town.

She asked everyone to wait for a while, and after watching the time for a while, she said with certainty: "Just at this moment, the air pressure has dropped a lot. This is a sign of a storm. It's better for everyone to go back to the boat as soon as possible."

Everyone's face turned cold, and they all went to work.

The urban planning of Rogge Town is designed as the most common cross-street layout, interspersed with several diagonal small streets, and the intersection of the four main streets of East, West, South and North is the core area of ​​the city - the central square .

The central square has been expanded several times, and it is no longer what it used to be. It occupies a large area. If there are major festivals, various celebrations and sacrifices, they must be held here. Even the naval parade of the entire East China Sea has been held here many times.

And because the previous generation of Pirate King Roger died here, it became even more famous and became the most important tourist attraction in Rogge Town, and even the entire East China Sea, similar to the thousand-year-old historical sites in another life of Hanan.

Hanan and Ah Jin stood outside the square, looking around.

There are many shops on the square, and there are a lot of goods. It is just at noon at this time, and the flow of people is surging. It is very lively. Many tourists from other places speak local dialects and wear various costumes, visiting and checking in.

Hanan even saw a group similar to a tour group, led by a tour guide holding a flag, taking pictures, pointing and making noise all the way.

Yu Nan was quite interested, and felt a familiar feeling in his heart, as if he had arrived at a tourist attraction in another life, so he took Ah Jin to join a group, followed him, and listened to the tour guide's explanation.

The tour guide was a young woman with an ordinary appearance, but she was very friendly. She also saw Ajin and Ajin. Obviously, this was not the first time they had encountered this situation, so she didn't express anything.

"Look, everyone," the tour guide pointed to the central area on the east side of the square, "That is the city hall of Rogge Town, which has been built for hundreds of years."

Hanan looked along and saw that it was a masonry building with an orange-yellow facade. Although it only had two floors, it was magnificent and had a long opening.

It is close to hundreds of meters, and each floor is more than ten meters high. Facing the square, there is a thick square stone pillar every ten meters apart for load-bearing purposes.

"The central square was not so wide before. The expansion took place in 1498 of the Haiyuan calendar, that is, 22 years ago. It took less than half a month to complete the current scale."

Seeing that the tourists didn't respond in any way, the female guide continued: "The purpose at that time was for an unprecedented grand ceremony,"

These words really caught the tourists' attention, and they asked one after another: "Oh? What kind of ceremony is there? Is it a celebration?"

The tour guide looked at the city hall and his voice gradually became lower, "In order to execute the previous pirate king 'Gol D Roger'!"

"Wow, so this is where 'the beginning and the end' is."

"I came to Rogge Town just to see this place."

Tourists buzzed.

The tour guide nodded in satisfaction, "Look, the most famous execution platform in the world is just ahead."

Everyone looked at the sound, and in front of the city hall, stood a high platform, an all-wood building, about ten meters high, with four floors in total, and a square wooden execution platform on the top, which could accommodate four or five people at the same time.

"Back then, countless people witnessed a generation of heroes conferring heads here. At the same time, this execution platform also represented the sanctity of the world government and the supreme majesty of the navy that maintains world peace and protects the lives and property of the people!

So there is a saying that it witnessed the end of history and the beginning of an era of chaos! "

The tour guide has a high level of professionalism and a deep understanding of allusions and history. When talking about these, his expression is solemn, his voice is sonorous and powerful, and his tone is also full of yin and yang, which is fascinating.

As she led the crowd forward, she continued to explain: "Have you noticed? This execution platform has four floors, and the interior is hollow. Each floor is fixed with two wide wooden boards at the junction of each direction. , for support."

The tourists didn't have the slightest interest in the architectural structure, they were all whispering, imagining the grand occasion back then, only regretting that they hadn't experienced it personally, the female guide saw that there was no one to talk to, she was a little embarrassed and coughed twice.

It was Han Nan who saved face. After all, he and Ah Jin were prostitutes for nothing, so he gave the tour guide a step up and asked, "What's the point of this?"

The tour guide nodded and smiled at Yu Nan, and said loudly to the tourists: "Look carefully, everyone, the crossed wooden boards are in the shape of a big cross.

× represents death, represents the end, and is also used as a wake-up call for future generations. "

Everyone suddenly realized, and Hanan nodded secretly.

About [-] meters away from the execution platform, everyone had to stop. The flow of people in front of them became more and more dense, and the space gradually became crowded. People from all over the world came to Rogge Town, wanting to see the last imprint of a generation of One Piece up close.

Yu Nan looked up, feeling a sense of looking up. After looking at it for a while, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Although the execution platform was high, it was a simple structure.

The municipal building standing behind it is solemn and solemn. It is not only taller, but also larger and more magnificent. Compared with it, it forms a sharp contrast.

Yu Nan was secretly amused. No wonder the execution platform was so crudely built. The World Government had taken great pains to highlight its authority.

The tour guide is still introducing the allusions to the tourists, most of which are about the achievements of the world government and the navy. Hanan has no interest, and the sky is far away.

As Jessica said, there were dark clouds gradually appearing, and it seemed that the sky would change, so she greeted Ah Jin and walked out.

After walking a few steps, there was a sudden sound of surprise behind him, and then someone shouted exaggeratedly, "Look, someone has climbed onto the execution platform!"

Hanan turned his head to look, although he was far away, he could see who it was, and couldn't help but twitch his eyes, on the execution platform, it was an old acquaintance - Straw Hat Luffy.

I saw him wearing the iconic straw hat, red waistcoat, blue cropped trousers, straw sandals on his feet, one hand flat on his forehead, and he was looking around, looking like he would be a top-notch man. The mountains look small.

"The boy in the straw hat, get down right now!"

A group of men in red police uniforms rushed to the execution platform. The leader was a middle-aged man holding a loudspeaker, shouting at Luffy angrily.
