An infinite journey starting from the big pirate
Chapter 4: Mysterious Pen Pal
Another year flies by, and it has been seven years since Carlo arrived in this world.
Bai Yena ate the Cat Fruit and Ragdoll Cat form and became a person with abilities. Then she discovered that Carlo liked to see her cat ears and tail, so she usually stayed between the human form and the human-animal form, and she looked like a standard girl with cat ears.
During this year, Carlo's daily life was very regular, even boring.
Practicing physical skills according to the "Summary of Six Naval Styles", secretly developing and exercising fruit abilities, reading in the library, and teasing his cat-eared maid, these made up all of Carlo's daily life.
Compared to the debauched and amoral lives of other Celestial Dragons, Carlo is like an ascetic among the Celestial Dragons.
But fortunately, he has an adult soul that has long since matured in his body and is not as playful as other children, so he can still endure it.
He knew that the sufferings he was suffering now were all preparations for leaving Marigio when the time was right in the future.
As for how to leave, Carlo already had an idea in mind.
If you use normal means to break away from the Celestial Dragon clan and leave Marigioa, you will definitely be in trouble, just like Carlo's uncle, his father Xiernis' brother, Don Quixote Huo Minggu.
He left the Celestial Dragons with his wife and two sons in an attempt to live an ordinary life. However, he and his wife were persecuted to death by the angry people because of their status as former Celestial Dragons.
Then one of his two sons became a pirate and the other joined the navy. They are "Ama Yasha" Don Quixote Doflamingo and "Corazon" Don Quixote Rossinande.
Doflamingo once mentioned that because he, as a former Draco, knew the secret of the Draco's "national treasure", he was almost tortured to death by the Draco in Mariejoia when he was growing up.
Therefore, if you leave the Celestial Dragons normally, you will not only have to face the resentment accumulated by the people for a long time, but you will also have to face Marie Joa's killer.
In other words, to leave this hellish place like Marie Joa, it's best to use unusual means, such as taking advantage of the chaos to escape.
On this day, Carlo was reading in the library as usual, and the servants brought him various new issues of magazines that had just arrived. Carlo picked out "Memorial of Maritime Events" among them. As soon as he turned to the first page, he suddenly found this paragraph written on the title page of the book - "How did our world come to this? What supports the development of our world to this day?" What does it look like?”
The signature is "dr".
"Is this O'Hara's new doctor? I've never seen this guy before."
"Maritime Events" is a monthly magazine issued and published by scholars on the archaeological island "O'Hara" in the Western Sea. It records some of the more important new events on the sea and some of the latest archaeological results of O'Hara. .
Every time a new doctorate is born in O'Hara, it is customary to write a sentence on the title page of "Maritime Events" to show the presence of scholars around the world and let them know that O'Hara has a new doctor. born.
The most important thing is that one of Luffy's protagonists in the original work, Nico Robin, who can decipher ancient texts, came from O'Hara and was the last survivor of O'Hara at that time.
According to the original work, when Robin was eight years old, O'Hara Island was destroyed by the Navy's Demon-Slaying Order. All the scholars on the island except Robin were brutally murdered. The island has the largest collection of books in the world. The "Tree of Knowledge" was also burned down, and countless precious materials were burned to the ground. The fundamental reason is that O'Hara is trying to uncover the history of eight hundred years ago that the world government wants to hide.
The "Demon Slaying Order" is an inhumane military operation launched by the World Government through naval power to destroy islands or forces that threaten the World Government's rule.
The island where the "Demon Slaying Order" was launched will eventually be attacked by the navy until nothing is left but scorched earth.
Carlo guessed that this "dr" was probably Nicole Robin's pen name.
He didn't remember Nico Robin's age and didn't know when O'Hara would be destroyed, but he remembered that Robin passed the exam and got a doctorate at the age of 8. After that, the world government launched a "massacre" against O'Hara. Magic Order".
Which means if this is really Robin, then she would already have the title of Doctor "DR" by now, and O'Hara's destruction is coming.
Thinking of this, Carlo thought for a while, asked Baiyena to bring a pen and paper, and started writing a letter.
"Dear Sir... I believe that the fundamental driving force for social development is the "basic contradiction of society"... "Revolution" is an important driving force for the replacement of social forms... The contradiction between productivity and production relations drives the development of the world..."
In the letter, Carlo disguised himself as a scholar who worked in the world government. He first answered the question of "dr" with the Marxist theory he had learned in his previous life, and then vaguely mentioned the crisis that might befall O'Hara. He said he had heard rumors that because O'Hara was studying the historical text, the world government might take action against O'Hara. The final signature is "Mr. De".
After writing the letter, Carlo then asked Baiena to secretly throw the letter out.
When Carlo saw the destruction of O'Hara in his previous life, he felt a little sorry for this city of scholars. And Carlo also really likes the character of Nico Robin and doesn't want her to suffer as much as she did in the original work. Now that this plot was about to happen again in front of him, Carlo felt that he should not ignore it emotionally or rationally, so he decided to write this letter to remind Robin.
Naturally, although I had risked attracting attention to remind them, it was not up to me to decide whether they would listen or not.
Soon, two weeks later, Boyena told Carlo that there was a reply, which surprised Carlo.
He did not write a return address on the envelope at that time. He only wrote that he was "a scholar in the world government." How did the "dr" reply?
After opening the envelope and looking at it, Carlo understood immediately.
Dr not only introduced his real name as "Nicole Robin", confirming Carlo's guess, but also explained why he could find the reply address.
Because the paper and ink used by Carlo when he wrote the letter were not commercial products. The paper was made of high-quality mangroves, which are a specialty of Shampoo Island, and the ink was the very precious "Troll Ink". This is a special ink that can only be extracted from the North Sea Kraken and is usually only used for orders issued by the Celestial Dragons.
Based on the above two points, Robin guessed that the letter was sent from Mary Joa. So the question is, are there any scholars among the Celestial Dragons? Of course it's impossible. As we all know, the Celestial Dragons are a bunch of incompetent trash, so the person who wrote the letter is someone who works at Mary Joa.
So where would Marie Joa find a job as a scholar? The answer is the library.
Although the Tianlong people don't read at all and never go to the library, Mary Joa has a large library in the world second only to O'Hara's "Omniscient Tree". Many scholars usually work there and are responsible for sorting it out. and updated books.
Robin guessed that Carlo worked in the Mariegio Library, so he sent the reply directly. Then the scholars working in the library knew Carlo, and there was only one Celestial Dragon who would come to the library. So when they found that there was no such person named "Mr. De", they guessed whether it was Carlo, and then handed the letter to Gave it to Bai Yena.
After Carlo read it, he realized that there were so many articles in the letter paper and ink he used, and he couldn't help but admire Robin's intelligence.
Although it is still far from the truth, it is not far away. The young Robin found this place with only paper and ink. He is so smart at only eight years old. He is worthy of being O'Hara's youngest doctor. He is the "Son of the Devil" who has been on the run for thirty years under the orders of the World Government.
Carlo sighed and continued reading the letter.
"...Dear Mr. De, your summary of the 'laws of social development' and your unique perspective in analyzing things have enlightened me and benefited me a lot..."
Next are some of Robin's own research and opinions, which she hopes to discuss with Carlo. In the letter, Robin also said that nothing can stop O'Hara's determination to explore the truth, and they will not give up research on the historical text.
Now that Robin has said this, what else can Carlo do? It seems that O'Hara's destruction is inevitable. I'm afraid that even if Carlo, as a Celestial Dragon, orders the world government, he won't buy it. Instead, it will draw their attention to him.
After all, this "Demon Slaying Order" is the pinnacle of the world government's apparent power, a military strike launched by the Five Old Stars. The Five Old Stars have a special status even among the Celestial Dragons, and they cannot be commanded by a young Celestial Dragon like me.
Moreover, the study of historical texts is the opposite of the Celestial Dragons. Anyone who attempts to uncover the truth of the "Blank Hundred Years" will be ruthlessly suppressed by the world government, and they cannot stop it at all.
But Carlo's reminder was not completely useless. He gained a knowledgeable pen pal in Robin, and the two parties began to exchange frequent letters.
Robin admired Carlo for his profound knowledge, and Carlo, with his knowledge from another world, often came up with novel and unique viewpoints that impressed Robin.
And not only that, soon, after exchanging letters several times, Robin asked Carlo to investigate an incident in Mariegio.
That is a mystery in archaeology. According to the investigation of archaeologists, the only clue that can solve this mystery is hidden in Mariejoia.
It was impossible for the Celestial Dragons to allow outsiders to come here for archeology, so she could only entrust Carlo in Mariejoia to investigate.
"Legend of the Dragon"? Isn't this a fairy tale?
Carlo looked thoughtful after reading Robin's letter.
"What's wrong?" Bai Yena was also at the side, taking the letter from Carlo's hand and reading it.
She was originally from a well-educated aristocrat. Over the years, she followed Carlo and stayed in the library all year round. Under the influence of her ears and eyes, she became a learned and talented female academic.
Bai Yena just took a few glances and then showed a surprised expression, "Huh? I actually want to ask you, Master, to investigate the matter of "The Legend of the Dragon". Isn't that a made-up myth?"
"Legend of the Dragon" is a very ancient myth that spreads on the sea. The content is that in the very distant ancient times, this world was ruled by demons, and the leader of the demons was a dragon. At that time, the human beings of all races on the earth were no more than the livestock of demons, and their lives were extremely miserable.
Later, a group of very powerful human heroes were born in the world. They united all humans to launch an uprising. With the help of the "God of the Sea", they overthrew the rule of demons, killed the demon dragon, and then used all the demonic power to They were all sealed in the fruit, which is now the Devil Fruit.
As for the last place where the heroes united to encircle and slay the dragon, it is now Mariejoia.
This book has always been regarded as a fabricated myth, but recently the archaeological community seems to have made some new discoveries. In reality, many islands in the sea can also correspond to the locations in the book, and there are many newly unearthed ancient ruins. , proving that "Legend of the Dragon" is not entirely a fabrication.
After reading all the letters, Bai Yena said with some disbelief, "If what is said in the letter is true, then the "Legend of the Dragon" is probably something that really happened, and the 'Devil Fruit' we have eaten is also true." The devil is indeed sealed..."
Bai Yena said, holding her stomach and showing a sad expression, as if there was really a devil living in her stomach.
"Stop thinking nonsense." Carlo smiled and said, "Since it is a myth, it must be different from the facts. We have all eaten Devil Fruit for so long, what problems have occurred? Don't worry."
In fact, Carlo knows that in the near future, scientist Caesar will be able to mass-produce defective artificial Devil Fruits. Before that, Vegapunk, the Navy's strongest scientist, created almost perfect artificial Devil Fruits. Devil Fruit.
All of this is to say that Devil Fruit is not a religious product like a "demon", but an artifact of a more advanced civilization.
Even if his guess is not entirely correct, it at least shows that devil fruits can be created without demons.
Carlo believes that what "Legend of the Dragon" describes is probably the unknown ancient civilization that created the Devil Fruit and the war between other civilizations. As for the "Magic Dragon", it is probably the super weapon of that civilization.
The amazing thing is that the self-proclaimed "Celestial Dragon" of the Celestial Dragons is related to dragons, and the mark of the Celestial Dragons "Hoof of the Sky Dragon" is also a dragon claw. In short, there are many elements related to dragons in Mary Joy. Is this possible? Is it related to the legendary "magic dragon" that was killed here?
It is even said that the "national treasure" of the Tianlong people, the thing that allows them to occupy the top of the world's power, could it be the "magic dragon" at that time?
Before Carlo traveled through time, could the last ancient weapon "King of Heaven-Uranos" that had not been explained in the plot of "One Piece" be this "magic dragon"?
Carlo thought a lot. The letter successfully piqued his curiosity and made him want to find out. But this is not an easy task.
Because Carlo had specially investigated in order to plan his escape, he was familiar with the terrain of various places where Maria went. Most of the places were residential and leisure areas where it was difficult to hide any secrets. The only one worth investigating was Maria. Pangu City in the center of Joya.
That is the core and important area of Mariejoia. The Five Old Stars and the mysterious "Lord Im" who appeared in the comics live in Pangu City.
Although Carlo was curious and wanted to investigate, he didn't want to have anything to do with the mysterious Five Old Stars.
As a Celestial Dragon, Carlo could occasionally see the five of them.
Carlo, who has awakened his sense of knowledge, has an extremely keen sense. Every time he sees the Five Old Stars, he will find that the Five Old Stars always seem to be peeking at him.
This had worried Carlo for a while.
If there is a person with the ability of some strange fruit among the Five Old Stars, who can read memories, see through souls, etc., and his identity as a time traveler is exposed, it will be over.
But fortunately, every time I saw them, it was always at the public activities of the Tianlong people. They did nothing but peek at me, and they never came into contact with me in private.
If he hadn't believed in the feeling that seeing and hearing the color brought to him, Carlo would almost have thought that Wulao Xing's "peeping" at him was just his own self-righteous delusion.
It is precisely because this matter is so weird that Carlo does not want to contact the Five Old Stars, so he can only say sorry to Robin for investigating the "Legend of the Dragon".
Anyway, the revolutionary army will also overthrow the Tianlong people in the future, and everything will be revealed by then.
