One Piece: Starting with the enslavement of Wano Country!

Page 129

Barrett clenched his fist, his eyes burning with fighting spirit: "One day, I will be stronger than them and defeat them all!"

King scoffed from the side, "Stop bragging. You'll have to get past me first before you talk about defeating Mr. Kaido and Mr. Leylo."

Barrett glared at Jhin, too lazy to bother with him.

There's really no way to deal with Jhin.

Barrett then quickly turned his attention back to the battle on the island below.

This level of combat is rare; learning from it is a real gain.

Jhin stopped teasing Barrett and watched the battle unfold.

Deep down, there is also a determination to become stronger!

He wanted to catch up with his two older brothers and not fall too far behind them!

The battle between Rael and Kaido lasted for three days and three nights.

The ice was shattered, and the island was sunk!

This was no problem for two people who could fly, and they took to the sky to continue fighting.

They only stopped when they had had their fill of fighting, and then went back to the Celestial Empire to drink.

Wang Zhi originally thought that after Roger visited Whitebeard and Big Mom, the two "Four Emperors", his next stop would be his Beehive Island.

Although he wasn't familiar with Roger, they only knew each other from when they were in the Rocks Pirates.

But since the Yonko Blacknose visited Yonko Whitebeard and Yonko Big Lin, there's no reason why he wouldn't visit me, right?

It wasn't just Wang Zhi who thought so; the World Government, the Navy, and the general public all thought so too.

It is believed that Roger's next itinerary should be to go to Beehive Island to find Wang Zhi.

After visiting two of the "Four Emperors," Whitebeard and Big Mom, the Black Nose Pirates disappeared from the world's sight once again.

This pirate crew is completely out of the loop right now. Unless they show themselves, even the World Government and the Navy will have a hard time finding their location.

Wang Zhi waited for a long time, but the man with black nose hairs never came.

Wang Zhi flew into a rage when he realized that Roger might not come to the Hive.

Wang Zhi picked up his weapon and smashed everything in sight in the room.

He really isn't someone who cares much about his reputation; he just wants to make money quietly.

However, not everyone should look down on him or even ignore him like that!

From the initial designation of him as a "prospective Yonko" by the Beasts Pirates and the World Economic News Agency.

And later the World Government and the Navy's bounties were far lower than those of the other "Four Emperors".

Now, when Black Nose Hair visits the other two "Four Emperors," he deliberately avoids coming to his place.

You're constantly insulting Wang Zhi, aren't you? This is simply outrageous!

After venting his anger, Wang Zhi finally managed to calm down, spitting a mouthful of saliva directly on the ground: "Hmph, if you don't want to come, then don't come. I didn't really want to see you anyway!"

"And your Black Nose Hair Pirates are really pretentious!"

West Sea, Ohara Island.

After a period of sailing, the three members of the Black Nose Pirates finally arrived at this archaeological holy site.

On the shore, Jabba threw the anchor into the sea and moored the pirate ship.

Roger gazed at the prominent Tree of Omniscience on Ohara Island and laughed, "Let's go, let's find an archaeologist to become our new partner."

Jabba thought for a moment, then shook his head and refused, saying, "Roger, Rayleigh, you two go. I'll stay here and watch the ship."

Although this pirate ship was stolen by them, it wasn't the original "Ol Jackson" that had accompanied them on their travels.

They had no emotional attachment to the ship.

But no matter what, the journey ahead still depends on this ship.

“Alright, thank you for your hard work, Jabba.” Roger nodded, then called out to Rayleigh, “Let’s go.”

Roger and Rayleigh jumped ashore from the ship and headed toward the Tree of Omniscience.

Jabba lay leisurely on the deck, his hands behind his head, eyes closed, resting.

At that moment, a fishing boat returned to Ohara.

On the fishing boat, the fishermen were startled when they saw the skull and crossbones flag fluttering in the wind from afar.

It wasn't that they recognized the "Four Emperors" Black Nose Pirates; it was just a normal reaction for an ordinary person to see pirates.

The fishermen quickly steered their boats to land on the coast far from the pirate ship.

Then they immediately took off running, wishing their parents had given them two fewer legs.

Jabba's Observation Haki was very strong, so it was impossible that he didn't notice the group of fishermen, but he didn't take it to heart.

They're just a group of ordinary people.

This is the coast, so it's normal for fishermen to come and go, and it's also normal for ordinary people to be afraid of pirates.

What is the connection to Chapter 192?

In recent days, the World Government has dispatched a number of CP agents to Ohara Island.

It wasn't because of Olvia helping the Beasts Pirates translate ancient texts.

They didn't know about this.

Olvia's presence in the Beasts Pirates is extremely low; she doesn't even have a bounty poster.

Although the Beasts Pirates not only translated the ancient Poneglyphs, they also reached the final island.

However, before they even reached the final island, the Beasts Pirates had already occupied the entire Wano Country.

The World Government knows that the people of Wano Country can translate the Poneglyphs, and that the Poneglyphs themselves were carved by them.

Therefore, it was natural for the World Government to believe that the ancient script was translated by the people of Wano Country.

The reason CP agents were sent to Ohara is because archaeological fleets have been setting sail from there in recent years, which has attracted their attention.

The scholars were drawn to the topic of the "blank century" in Réau's speech on Osawa Island.

Although Lei Luo only mentioned it briefly, that was enough for these scholars.

This means that their research direction over the years has been correct.

To put it simply, for these scholars, Rayleigh's words were like Whitebeard shouting on his deathbed: "One Piece is real."

This has led to these scholars, who are obsessed with history, constantly going overseas to conduct archaeological expeditions in search of their own "one piece".

This group of bespectacled, physically weak scholars relentlessly embarked on archaeological expeditions overseas in pursuit of historical truth, even at the cost of their lives.

This includes Robin's father from the original story, who died during an archaeological expedition.

Fortunately, the World Government is only puzzled by their actions and has not discovered anything so far.

First, these scholars were very tight-lipped and did not accidentally let anything slip.

Secondly, their time spent at sea for archaeological research was too short, meaning these scholars didn't actually uncover anything.

They're just going out to sea to die.

But that's precisely why it's even more suspicious.

Whose good people keep dying and still keep going to sea?

Since it was only a suspicion and nothing was known, the World Government did not take any action against Ohara for the time being.

They simply sent CP agents to investigate, to find out what Ohara Island was really up to.

Meanwhile, a CP agent inadvertently learns from a fisherman about the arrival of pirates.

During the conversation, upon learning that the pirates were none other than the "Four Emperors" Black Nose Pirates, the agent quickly made up an excuse to leave.

If it were just an ordinary pirate, it wouldn't be a big deal, but Black Nose Hair is one of the "Four Emperors," so this matter has to be reported.

After finding a secluded spot, the CP agent cautiously looked around several times.

After confirming that there was indeed no one else around except him, the CP agent took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed his superior.

Those who work in intelligence are always racing against time.

So the Den Den Mushi was answered very quickly.

The CP agent immediately reported respectfully, "Sir, it's like this, on Ohara Island..."

"What? Are you sure? The Black Nose Pirates have appeared in Ohara in the West Blue?" The Den Den Mushi's voice was full of surprise.

The agent replied with certainty, "Yes, sir, I'm sure!"

He had just drawn the skull and crossbones flag of the Black Nose Pirates for the fisherman to confirm.

"I see."

After saying this indifferent remark, the officer hung up the Den Den Mushi.

The agent put away the Den Den Mushi, whistled, and left nonchalantly to continue his life under disguise.

On the other hand, the CP commanders couldn't understand why the Black Nose Pirates had gone to the West Blue.

What unspeakable secret is it?

Of course, he didn't need to think about or handle these things; he only needed to report the intelligence.

So the officer immediately dialed his superior's Den Den Mushi and reported the message.

Finally, news of the Black Nose Pirates' trip to Ohara in the West Blue reached the Five Elders of the Hall of Power.

Vochuli Saint frowned: "What exactly is the Black Nose Pirates up to? Why did they suddenly go to the West Blue again?"

Piet Saint shook his head: "Who knows?"

Vochuli Saint chimed in, "Ever since the Battle of the Great Swamp, we've had absolutely no idea what the Black Nose Hair Pirates are up to."

Maz Saint agreed, "Indeed!"

Nasujiro didn't continue discussing Roger, but instead thought of something else: "Has the matter of Ohara been investigated? What was the purpose of that group of people going to sea?"

Satan shook his head: "No, their motives for going to sea are still unclear."

Saint Vochuli pondered, "The fleet that set sail from Ohara to explore, the Black Nose Pirates—do you think there might be some connection between the two?"

The other four stars fell into thought upon hearing Sacred Vochuli's words, feeling that there must be some connection between the two.

But I can't figure it out.

What could possibly motivate one of the Four Emperors to come to the small island of Ohara in the West Blue?

You can't get to the bottom of this just by guessing and discussing.

Therefore, the Five Elders finally issued an order for the Navy to go to Ohara Island to investigate.

Upon receiving the orders from the Five Elders, Sora immediately hung up the Den Den Mushi and instructed Sengoku to board a warship and head to Ohara in the West Blue.

As for Garp, without being ordered, he volunteered to board Sengoku's warship after hearing Roger's name.

In fact, sometimes, even as the highest leader of the Navy, Kong couldn't understand what Garp was thinking at all.

Why is he so fixated on Roger?

Roger and his crew were unaware that their whereabouts had been exposed and that the navy had already been mobilized.

Inside the Tree of Omniscience, Roger and Rayleigh, just like Rayleigh before them, went straight to the most senior Dr. Clover...

Chapter 193 New Crew

Roger stated his purpose directly, which startled Dr. Clover.

During this time, many unfamiliar faces came to Ohara Island, and he was well aware of this.

Clover darted to the doorway at a speed unbecoming of his age.

He peeked out and looked around to make sure no one was there before closing the door and locking it from the inside.

Dr. Clover then turned around and asked, "Say it again, what do you want with me? To translate the Poneglyphs?"
