Robin's back appeared in the crystal ball, followed by many figures. She was facing a giant building with two seagull-like wings extending from the top of the building on both sides. There was also lava flowing on the ground. Noah narrowed his eyes. This is the Navy Headquarters! "Disaster, I saw a disaster happening here, like a volcanic eruption." Navy Headquarters, Akainu! Noah thought for a moment and saw that Robin didn't seem to have been captured. And she had grown bigger, so it shouldn't be a bad thing. Robin didn't care at all, she believed that Noah would protect her. "Then you are next, Mr. Noah, please come and sit down." Noah thought about it. After all, the world of One Piece is not fantasy. Nothing happened when Shirley predicted that Luffy would destroy the Mermaid Island. So let's do it. Charlie adjusted her mood, pointed the crystal ball at Noah, and continued to meditate. After a long time, there was no movement, and Charlie felt a little strange, so she continued to divine, this time fully committed to it. Finally, there was movement in the crystal ball. There was a small flame burning quietly. After a while, it split into two flames. After a while, it split into more flames again. Then the flames filled the entire crystal ball in a very short time. Finally, the flames could no longer be seen in the crystal ball, only the deepest red. Charlie was puzzled as to why it was so strange. She had predicted so many disasters, but this was the first time that it was not an image of a disaster, but it was still confusing. Noah was very happy in his heart. What did it mean? It meant that our fire transmission was very successful, and the spark had become a prairie fire. Seeing Noah's happy face, Xia Li knew that Noah must have seen something. Although she was very curious, she was not familiar with him after all, so she couldn't ask directly. She could only watch the two siblings walk out of the Mermaid Cafe.
While Noah was researching at the Mermaid Cafe, there was some movement in the Dragon Palace. King Neptune invited Tiger again, saying that he had something to discuss. Tiger came to the reception room, where only King Neptune, Princess Otohime, and him were present. Princess Otohime has been struggling with what she said at the banquet yesterday. After much deliberation, she decided to invite Tiger into the city to have some discussions. Tiger is an adventurer from Fishman Island and the leader of the Fishmen who has the most contact with the outside world, so she wanted to ask if the outside world is what Noah said. Tiger hesitated for a moment. "What Noah said should be true. Humans, or rather not just humans, but also mermaids and fishmen, all have this situation. It's just that humans have more desires and they are more complicated. I encountered many things during my travels. Because of interests and desires, many fights and slave trades did originate from this. When Noah told me his theories, I felt as if I had suddenly realized something." After hearing Tiger's answer, Princess Otohime seemed to have all her strength drained out. Anyone who has been holding on to an idea and finally finds out that it only brings disaster will collapse. "Is it true that the World Government cannot represent justice?" Listening to Princess Otohime's words, Tiger remembered his life as a slave and became very angry. "justice?" As he said this, he tore off his shirt and pointed at the brand on his body. "Do you know what this is? It's called the Hoof of the Celestial Dragon! What does it represent? It means that this creature is a slave of the Celestial Dragons! I was publicly auctioned off to the Celestial Dragons on the Sabaody Archipelago, the island closest to the Marine Headquarters!" Princess Otohime was so shocked that she couldn't believe it, and King Neptune was furious. His good friend was sold as a slave, and this anger made him almost lose his mind. "I was a slave in Mary Joa for three years and saw the darkest place in the world. I escaped after a near-death experience. When I was about to die in the sea, it was Noah who saved me. Although my body returned to my hometown, my soul was forever trapped in that dark world and could not get out. I have always wanted to go back and retrieve my soul and let those beasts feel the pain." Princess Otohime's observation Haki sensed a huge cry of sorrow in Tiger's heart, causing her to burst into tears uncontrollably. The room fell silent, with only the sound of Otohime's sobs. After a while, Tiger calmed down. "You asked me about the future of Fishman Island. I really don't know, but you can ask Mr. Noah. He is a survivor of O'Hara and is very knowledgeable. Maybe he will have a better idea." After saying this, Tiger turned and left the palace without waiting for Neptune to stop him. Chapter 40 New History Text Noah, who was mentioned, had already gone to the Sea Forest with Robin. The Sea Forest is located in the underwater forest northeast of Fishman Street. Because many sunken ships in the sea were transported here along the flow of the tide, it is also known as the "Ship Graveyard". Having arrived at the Sea Forest, Noah and Robin were not in a hurry. They slowly wandered around here, sometimes discussing the wreckage of ships from the previous generation.
Because of the ocean currents, many shipwrecks from other places miraculously come here. Relying on Robin's solid historical knowledge, he was able to recognize many famous ship hull logos. For example, the ship of the Hiku Pirates, which should have sunk after the "Battle of Et-Wol". Noah was very moved when he saw the ship of the Hiku Pirates. It was not the fault of the war. The Roger Pirates, who were originally on the verge of death, were saved by a sudden storm. Most of the Hiku Pirates' fleet was driven to the bottom of the sea, and due to an accident, the rudder was unfortunately stuck in the golden lion's head. Since pulling the rudder out would be life-threatening, the rudder is still embedded in the head. If we use the theory of the previous life to understand, when luck comes, heaven and earth will work together, and when luck is gone, heroes are helpless. When destiny is bestowed upon you, you will turn misfortune into fortune and be successful in everything you do. Roger should have his own mission to open up an era of freedom. Red Hair is the successor, connecting the past and the future. What about Luffy? The Pirate World also has prophecies, and there are also time-like devil fruits, so is there a destiny?For example, the will of D, the meaning of the straw hat, and the rubber these three things are concentrated in one person, that is the child of the world of One Piece is world-conscious, its core concept should be freedom, even in its most absurd form. Thinking of this, Noah's heart surged. Because the world he wanted to build was not a free world without any scruples. He wanted to establish a new order, and disordered freedom was chaos. He did not have D's will, a straw hat, and would not plan for the rubber fruit. He hoped that all the people on the sea would stand up, arm themselves with technology and civilization, and build their own homes with their own hands. So does it mean: fighting against the sky, the fun is endless? We continued walking and passed through many debris, and finally we saw the main text of the history of Fishman Island. The content of this historical text is very interesting, it is an advanced version of an apology letter. Joyboy apologized to the mermaid princess of the previous era, saying that he did not fulfill the agreement, so he put a piece of apology document here. It may be related to the Sea King, or it may be related to Noah's Ark above the Fishman Island, but these are not of much interest to Noah. He cares more about the power of this generation. Reaching out, he touched the main text of history. It was the same as O'Hara's. His spirit was pulled into the gap of time, and the power of the times was injected into his soul, which also slightly improved the proficiency of the skills he had learned. After absorbing it, the flow of time returned to normal. He closed his eyes and silently felt the changes in the plug-in and the condition of his body. Well, the upper limit of my body has indeed been raised. I can feel it, as if some of the burden has been removed from my body. This is an important goal of coming to Fishman Island. Then the next goal is to have a serious exchange with Tiger. Just as he was thinking about it, Noah's Observation Haki discovered that Tiger was looking for someone in the Sea Forest? "Hey, Tiger, looking for someone?" "So you are here. I came to ask you some questions." It turns out that Tiger was still upset after leaving Ryugu Castle, so he wanted to talk to Noah. He knew that Noah's other identity was the great writer Adam, and there were many profound connotations in his works, so he wanted to ask for advice. In the original history, Tiger made that shocking decision after a long period of inner torment. However, now on Fishman Island, there is someone who should be able to show him a better way forward. After learning on the way that Mr. Noah had gone to the Sea Forest, I came to find him. The two men sat on the ground in front of the main text of history, and Robin continued to study the text on the side. "It's like this, Mr. Noah. You probably know what I've been through. I'm really angry right now. I've thought about going back to Marijoa to take revenge on those Celestial Dragons and rescue the slaves who are also imprisoned there. Do you think this idea is appropriate?" "If there is something you have always wanted to do and it is the right thing to do, then do it. You are just a group of idiots who stole the name of God. But are you really ready?" The original novel did not describe the details of how Tiger sneaked into Marijoa, how he set the fire, and how he saved so many slaves. But in Noah's opinion, luck played a big role. You know, the Navy Headquarters is so close to Marijoa, if something big happens, the admiral will come in a minute. The Celestial Dragons' guards do not have many useless lackeys, but there are also many powerful guards. Add to that the hidden power of the CP department. Until now, Noah still can't figure out how Tiger did it all. "First, what about Fishman Island? You've done something like this, and the World Government will definitely put a lot of pressure on Fishman Island. Secondly, what about Marijoa's armed forces? How can we contain and confront them? Finally, how many people can you rescue by yourself?" Tiger had always wanted to do this before, but he hadn't figured out how to do it specifically. He lowered his head and thought about it, then he realized something. "Please sir, teach me." At this moment, Noah regretted not having a feather fan in his hand, which made him less romantic. "This is not difficult. First of all, we have to choose the right time. 1508 is the year of the World Government Conference, and the security is relatively strict. 1509 is more suitable, and the combat power of the navy and the world government will be more dispersed. Secondly, King Neptune and Princess Otohime of Fishman Island must know our plan and hope to cooperate with us. Even if they don't want to put Fishman Island in danger, it doesn't matter. It's better to cut ties with you as soon as possible.
Thirdly, we need allies to help us. I can contact them. There are some helpers from other forces and the navy. That’s basically it. I’ll tell you the details later.” Tiger was a little confused. Didn't I come to you for some moral support? Why did you already have a plan and allies? "Mr. Noah, you..." "I originally planned to cause a big commotion in Marijoa. The world can't continue like this. Since the Celestial Dragons are the descendants of the Creator, and the whole world is offering sacrifices to these gods, then let me weigh the quality of these gods." Hiss~~ I didn't expect Mr. Noah to be so courageous. Tiger's heart became more determined. He wanted to be a lone hero before, but now that he has a companion, it is no longer necessary. Just from the rough plan given by Mr. Noah, we can see how exciting this action is. "Mr. Noah, how can Fishman Island and humans live in peace in the future? According to what you said at the banquet, as long as there are interests, there will always be such conflicts. All of our compatriots on Fishman Island are a little confused about this issue." "How about this, you ask Neptune and Princess Otohime to come to the Sea Forest when they have time, and we can discuss this together. There are very few people in the Sea Forest, so it's easier to keep it secret. It's also safer. Because the issues we discuss may not be very friendly to the World Government." Tiger thought about it and agreed. He could see how lawless the man in front of him was, so he really had to keep it secret. He returned to Fishman Street to recuperate. However, he still communicated with Neptune privately, asking him to bring Princess Otohime to the Sea Forest when he had time to discuss the future and way out of Fishman Island. After sending Tiger away, Noah began to practice in the Sea Forest. He expected Neptune to come over in the next few days, so he decided not to go to Fishman Island to investigate the situation for the time being. He might as well practice well during this time to feel the upper limit of his talent. After all, when a big event happens, he will have to go all out, and every bit of strength improvement is a good thing. The effect of practicing sword skills with the historical text is very good. It is definitely a top-quality sword-testing stone. After all, no matter how hard Noah bursts out, he does not have the strength to break this stone. A few days passed, and Noah was sure that Neptune would come because he believed that what he said in the banquet hall would definitely make the decision-makers of Ryugu City feel the cruelty of reality. Only when they knew the seriousness of the problem would they pay more attention to Noah's words. The counselors in ancient times were also like this. They said, "You know, you are going to die soon!", and then they lobbied and finally achieved their goals. They were unparalleled in their eloquence. Noah was not a pedantic person, he could also use such simple and stunning words. Chapter 41 Ready to begin Sure enough, three days later, Neptune, Princess Otohime, and Tiger quietly came to the main text of the history of the Sea Forest. When he came, he saw Noah using the Wado Ichimonji to chop down the historical text, which made Neptune feel strange. He knew from some information passed down from Fishman Island that this stone tablet was very special to Fishman Island. When he saw someone trying to chop this thing, he didn't know how to dissuade them for a moment. Fortunately, Noah had practiced almost enough, so he put away his sword. Then he pretended nothing had happened and asked everyone to sit down. The scene was a little quiet, and finally it was Princess Otohime who broke the silence. She still refused to accept that her long-standing ideas were overturned. "I was shocked when I heard Mr. Noah's remarks in the banquet hall last time. Does Mr. Noah have any suggestions on the way out for Fishman Island?" "I only told you half of it last time. It was all what Fishman Island had to face. Now let me tell you how to solve it. Fishman Island returned to the 'human' camp 200 years ago. But no matter whether it was fishmen or mermen, they couldn't integrate into it. In fact, it's not just you. The fur tribe, the ghost tribe, and so on are all like this. Even the giants who were guarding the navy were tricked into joining. Not only that, the Celestial Dragons and nobles do not even consider the people under their rule as human beings, let alone the non-human intelligent races. " The three people from Fishman Island had never thought that there was such a classification among humans. People without power and strength would not be recognized by those in power. This was puzzling, and it seemed that the problem of Fishman Island was even more troublesome. "This is a class conflict, and it cannot be solved by petitions, signatures, or slogans. The whole world is in this distorted class system, so why do you think the murlocs are an exception?" "So, why don't we work together to build an equal new world alliance. Give respect to every intelligent creature and let everyone live freely under the sun. As for security issues, we must establish a new order in the new world. Only an order that is essentially equal can bring peace." The understated words made the three people's scalps tingle. Even Tiger was shocked. What he thought was brave was different from Noah. At first glance, this person looked like a madman. "No, absolutely not. You are going to destroy the world with your ambition. Fishman Island will not join in such a crazy plan of yours." "Then the slaves captured from Fishman Island are not important, right? We can give up 800 years of praying, right? The countless souls who died of oppression on the sea are crying. Doesn't your natural observation Haki allow you to feel emotions? Come, take a look at my ambition!" After hearing what Noah said, Otohime thought about it again and again and finally released her observation Haki.
"Anger, pity, sacrifice, and sincerity. You don't even have the ambition to become the overlord!" In Princess Otohime's opinion, the people who could say those words were mostly those who used high-sounding excuses to realize their own ambitions, but what about Noah? How could there be such a person? "see it?" Noah lowered his head and spoke slowly. "When I first came to this world, I was actually indifferent to it because of some experiences. Since slavery and divine right of kings have been in place for 800 years, let it continue. I plan to turn into ashes with the Tree of All-Knowing. What Joy Boy failed to do, Roger only awakened the free will. Why should I overthrow this broken world? Why should I wander around the edge of the world with wounds all over my body?" Tiger saw that Noah was a little depressed, and couldn't help but want to comfort him. As for the words like just coming to this world, it was naturally born in O'Hara, and he didn't expect it to be a more magical thing. But from Princess Otohime's observation, she felt that Noah was not depressed, but suppressed the fire in his heart. In fact, there was already a raging sea of fire inside, which frightened her to the point of trembling. "But then, I wondered, why did the World Government massacre Ohara just because it wanted to? Why did Akainu dare to destroy the civilians' refugee ships? Why were there so many slave ships on the sea? Why did people have to live without dignity? Why did we have to fight so hard to even survive? Why?" "In the beginning, I relied on the energy in my heart to get through it, thinking that overthrowing the old world would become my motivation. But after I traveled all over the world and walked a part of the Grand Line, I found that building a new world was actually the source of my motivation. In my heart, there is a great country of peace and democracy, where people can live freely under the sun, criminal acts will be stopped by the law, and slaves have long been swept into the dust of history. I want to bring it into this world." Noah's words moved everyone present. Otohime could feel that every word this man said was true. King Neptune felt a strong spirit that impressed him. Tiger felt that these words touched his heart, and he wished he could follow Noah to Marijoa to question those corrupt rulers. Everyone, with their own thoughts, fell silent again. After a while, King Neptune spoke. After all, he was responsible for the fate of Fishman Island, so he naturally did not dare to confront the World Government directly. The 10000-meter protection layer under the sea could not completely protect his people. But the new world described by Noah moved him, so he wanted to make a request. "We understand what Mr. Noah said. As for fighting against the World Government, we, Fishman Island, are powerless. However, privately, we, Ryugu City, are willing to provide any help." I didn't expect that King Neptune would show his kingly determination at this time, protecting his people while not standing out from the incident. I underestimated him. Princess Otohime also acquiesced to this decision at this time. Although the probability of overthrowing this world is very small, they want to give it a try. Just like the sentence in Adam's work, "The hymn of mankind is the hymn of courage, and the greatness of mankind is the greatness of courage!" Seeing that everyone had reached a good consensus, Noah told them about his plan to rescue slaves in Marijoa in 1509. If Noah had told them about this plan at the beginning, Otohime and the others would have been shocked, but they had been frightened too much today, and this plan made them feel that Noah should do such a big event and it was natural. Everyone present was a direct or indirect participant, so Noah gave a brief account of what needed to be done on Fishman Island. First, the top leaders of Fishman Island have to pretend to break up with Tiger, because Tiger is going to rescue the slaves himself. He is also the person who knows the terrain and details of Marijoa best among all the people here, so he must go. Since he has gone, he can't hide it, so they pretend to break up first so that Fishman Island can be relieved of some pressure afterwards. Secondly, Fishman Island needs to prepare more than ten large ships without markings in one year. There are so many slaves in Marijoa, and it is certain that not many of them can escape safely by themselves. These ten ships are too simple for Fishman Island. They can just erase the markings from the captured pirate ships, or assemble a few from the Sea Forest. After they are completed, they will be placed on the small island in the Calm Belt close to Marijoa. As for the sailors, it's nothing for the masters of Fishman Island who can control the water, such as Jinbei. Fishman karate's ability to control water is still very strong. Or you can command a more obedient sea beast to pull the boat briefly, similar to Neptune's whale mount Hoai. Lastly, Tiger can now look for the next members of the Sun Pirates, and they must have good character. After discussing these events, Noah thought about it and told Princess Otohime "I am also aware of the Sea King's affairs. If possible, try not to let her show her visions. It's not that this power is needed in the future, but I think a child should not be involved in the war." O'Hara's legacy? It seems that this historical text records a lot of things. Several other people also believed that Noah learned this news from the stone tablet. After that, Neptune and Otohime will go to Ryugugu Castle. The next day, news came from Fishman Island that the ruler of Ryugu City and the boss of Fishman Street, Tiger, had a fierce quarrel and parted unhappily. The lower-class fishmen in Fishman Street were a little commotion, but Tiger suppressed it. It seemed that there was some unrest in Fishman Island. But in private, these people were quietly preparing various details of the operation. Princess Otohime continued to give a speech in Gironcord Square to attract attention. Neptune was looking for some ships to send away. While Tiger was recovering from his injuries, he was also selecting trustworthy brothers. Everything is being prepared. Chapter 42: Sword Fight
On Noah's side, in addition to practicing, he used Den Den Mushi to communicate with Long about some things and make some preparations.
