When Gawain returned to the Black Bird, he was surprised to find that the members of the Black Ice Platform guarding the ship were working with Jinbei to pin down a man with chestnuts on his head and the orangutan he had just captured this afternoon.
on the ground.
In addition to the two of them, another orangutan was arrested this time...
Noticing Gawain's return, Jinbei smiled and raised his fist.
"Haha, sir, even if I take care of two children at home, I can still catch a group of unscrupulous people.
Just now, they were peeping around our ship for a long time!"
"I don't!
!”
As soon as Jinbe finished speaking, Kulikette yelled and explained to Gawain.
"Gao Wensheng, I have seen your photos and I know your identity, how dare I have bad thoughts about you!
I was just attracted by the flyer you gave to the orangutans!
Because...because I am a descendant of Rolando, my full name is Montblanc Culiquet, and like my ancestor Rolando, I bear the surname of Montblanc, sir!"
After saying that, Kulikate hit his head heavily on the ground.
Beside Kuliket, Shirahoshi and Uta couldn't help but explain for Kuliket.
"Yes, sir, this uncle is very interesting. He told us many stories about Beihai.
They have huge snails over there, carrying an entire fortress and wandering on the sea!"
"Baixing is right. The uncle also told us the complete story of Rolando. Combining different stories, I think I already have the inspiration for a new song!
That’s a man who has been misunderstood by the whole world for hundreds of years!”
Uta said in cooperation, and then she gently tugged on the sleeve of the member of the Black Ice Platform who controlled Kulikate.
"So let them go, there are so many of us here, it's impossible for the three of them to do anything!"
"Uta is right, haha, let them go."
Gawain waved his hand gently, and the members of the Black Ice Platform also retreated into the distance after letting go of Kulikate.
Although he was free, Kuliket did not get up. Even if the apes and orangutans beside him wanted to get up, they were pulled back by him.
Kneeling on the ground, Kulikate took out the two leaflets from his trouser pocket and spoke to Gawain in an extremely solemn voice.
"Gao Wensheng, I don't care about my own safety, I just want to know if what you said in the leaflet is true!
Do you really think that my ancestor was not bragging? Do you really think that he was a truly great adventurer?
Also, have you found any trace of the Golden Bell?"
On the side, listening to Culiquet's question, Gawain nodded gently.
As he sat down, Gawain said to Culiket.
"You have a lot of questions, why don't you stand up and ask me one by one.
I'm not in a good mood today, but seeing you makes me feel a lot better.
In that case, I can give you some time for questions, man."
Having said this, Gawain raised his left hand.
"Kaku!"
"I'm here, sir!"
Kaku stepped out solemnly, and Gawain ordered softly.
"Let's camp on the beach tonight and get ready."
"As commanded."
Kaku nodded, then left to get ready.
After Kaku left, Gawain looked at Kuliket who stood up slowly and said.
"The leaflet I gave you is not a joke. I already have evidence of the real existence of the Golden Bell. The golden city of Sandora does indeed exist. Rolando did not deceive the world back then, and he did not deceive his king."
"Really...really!
!”
Kuriket's eyes shed muddy tears.
"Have you found the golden clock?"
"Don't be so hasty, if I had found the Golden Bell, I would have brought it over long ago.
But, the old people on our ship have seen that golden clock a long time ago!"
Gawain smiled and pointed at Mr. Leili who was drinking, and said.
Noticing Gawain's movements, Culiquet looked at Rayleigh with surprise on his face.
"You are...you are the legendary Hades Rayleigh, the vice-captain of the Pirate King!
Did you ever land on Sky Island with that Pirate King?"
"Oh, haha, it seems you also know the existence of Sky Island, kid!"
Reilly smiled and waved his hand to Culiquet. His words made Culiquet jump up excitedly.
"Sky Island, ahhahaha, you indeed mentioned the existence of Sky Island, and my judgment was not wrong, haha!
Sure enough, the facts are different from what my ancestors thought. The lost golden city of Sandora did not sink to the bottom of the sea due to the movement of the earth's crust, as my ancestors judged, but was washed into the sky by rising sea currents!
"
Having said this, Kulikate excitedly pulled out Rolando's diary hidden at his waist. He opened the diary and pointed out a painting in it to Gawain and his party.
"This is the topographic map of Gaya Island left by our ancestors back then. You can see that the entire landscape of Gaya Island should have been in the shape of a huge skull!
But now, Gaya Island's head has disappeared, leaving only the skull's mouth on the sea!
The story of Rolando, the King of Liar, has been circulating in Beihai and around the world for four hundred years. If this diary had not been discovered, even I might not be willing to believe in my ancestors.
But after I found this diary, I discovered that the lower half of the map of Gaya Island drawn by my ancestors was no different from the current Gaya Island!
At the same time, the ancestors’ diaries also recorded countless advanced navigation skills that can be used today!
In my opinion, an ancestor with excellent navigation knowledge and drawing skills, even if he did not boast, would be welcomed by every team and become one of the best navigators of that era.
In this case, why did he fabricate his experience with one unshakable lie after another?"
Having said this, Kulikate held Rolando's diary and cried incessantly. His actions that he had persisted in for countless years had finally yielded real evidence!
Listening to Culiket's cry, Gawain clapped his hands gently.
"Man, I understand how you feel, but you'd better restrain yourself.
You look... almost in your fifties, howling like this?"
"Wow, ah, ah, I just feel sad, but I also feel happy, sir!
I have been salvaging sunken ships here for seven years, seven years!
I have to be laughed at by those guys from the Town of Taunts every day!
I have to face harassment from them at every turn. Even though I never attack others on my own initiative, I still managed to earn a bounty of 25 million by resisting their attacks!
It's so hard for me!
!”
While explaining, Kulicet reluctantly wiped away his tears, then he took the diary and came to Gawain's side.
After handing the diary to Gawain, Kulikate stood there and continued to speak to everyone.
"I found my ancestor's diary nine years ago. After that, I read the diary countless times. Although there are many stories recorded in it, what I care about most is always the disappeared Golden Land!
Because the reputation of our ancestors has been completely ruined by this Golden Land!"
Having said this, Kulikate shook his head sadly.
“I don’t know if you have heard of the original story of Rolando the Great Taarler.
The story says that my ancestor liked to tell lies since he was a child, and by deception, he became the governor of the expedition team of the Kingdom of Lubnir in the North Sea.
After that, in order to stabilize his position in front of the king, the family ancestor made up the legend of the Golden Land. However, when he brought the king and soldiers to Gaya Island, all the king saw was a forest.
In this way, the family ancestor was executed by the king, but in this diary...!"
Just as Culiquet said this, Gawain, who was briefly reading through the pages, took over Culiquet's words.
I saw Gawain talking while flipping through the book.
"However, in this diary, Rolando is the first legendary adventurer to set out from all over the world four hundred years ago, travel all the way back and forth to the Grand Route, and even enter the New World!
Not only that, he is also an excellent warrior, navigator and botanist!"
Having said this, Gawain opened the diary to a section in Lilliput and passed it on to everyone.
When the diary arrived in Gion's hands, Gawain smiled.
"The villain kingdom recorded in Rolando's diary should be near Dressrosa, right?
Therefore, four hundred years ago, Rolando was really the first person from all over the world to cross the Grand Line.
Logically speaking, he should be the glory of Beihai."
"That's it!"
Kulikate said excitedly to Gawain.
"Four hundred years ago, our shipbuilding industry was not as developed as it is now, and at the same time, newspapers had not yet appeared.
At that time, most people in the world could only rely on books and word of mouth from sailors to understand the world.
But now, with the existence of the World Economic News and a series of phone bugs put into use.
Whether it's the New World or the Grand Line, a lot of information is coming out from around the corner!
Two years ago, I heard through the newspaper that some changes had taken place in Dressrosa. In the photo in that issue of the newspaper, I saw two little humans.
As more and more information is available for comparison, I believe more and more in the stories my ancestor told back then. Many of his stories echo today four hundred years later!"
Just as Kulikate said this, Gion suddenly frowned and turned the diary to the last page.
"Rolando's experience is indeed true, but...if you say he is a pure adventurer, then I disagree!
He is not a real hero and he does not deserve it!"
While talking, Gion showed everyone the passage recorded in Rolando's diary, in which Rolando led King Lubnir and the soldiers to land on Gaya Island!
Then, Gion continued.
"Look carefully, everyone, Rolando's diary records in detail the exchanges between him and the indigenous people of Gaya Island.
Here, he first cured the tree fever plague on Gaya Island, and then became friends with Kalgara, the strongest warrior among the natives of Gaya Island.
Later, he saved lives on Gaya Island that were about to be used for sacrifices, and made Gaya Island cancel the tradition of living sacrifices.
But not long after, he was misunderstood by the Gaya Islanders because he cut down the sacred tree that was contaminated by the plague, and drove him out of Gaya Island.
It was at this time that the great warrior Calgra made an agreement with Rolando. The golden bell would ring all the time on this sea, all in order to prevent Rolando from passing by Gaya Island in the future.
get lost!"
At this point, Gion snorted in dissatisfaction.
"Humph, what he wrote in his diary, I appreciate the friendship with Kalgra, but while appreciating it, I feel a little sick!
If he really regarded Gaya Island and Kalgara as friends, then why did he return to Gaya Island with the king and the soldiers of the Lubnir Kingdom?
Doesn't he know that such behavior will bring harm to the indigenous people of Gaya Island?
Didn't he know that what the king wanted was gold, not confirmation of whether his story was true or false?
If I were Rolando, I would rather be misunderstood by the whole world than reveal the news that Gaya Island has a huge amount of gold to the whole world!
Because once this news is revealed, Nagaya Island will lose peace from now on, and his friends will become the targets and prey of countless greedy people on the sea!"
Having said this, Gion looked at Kulikate coldly, and then she continued.
"Perhaps your ancestor Rolando was indeed a great navigator and adventurer, but he was by no means a good friend!
For the sake of vanity and to prove his greatness in front of others, he did not care at all about the safety of the indigenous people of Gaya Island!
For this alone, I won’t admire him, huh!”
Facing Gion's accusation, Jinbei on the side also nodded heavily.
"Yeah, I really didn't think of this before Gion mentioned it.
But now, I always feel that this story is weird...
The story he told about his voyage was nothing. After all, what he told was the truth and it was not a lie he made up.
No matter what the situation, telling the truth is necessary!
But the fact that he brought the king back to Gaya Island made me deeply despise this person!"
Jinbe looked at Kulikette and shook his head gently.
Looking at Jinbei's questioning look from the side, Kulikette quickly explained.
"Wait a minute, everyone, that was all forced by the king!
If our ancestor did not take the king to find gold, he would be executed by the king on the spot!"
"so what?"
Jinbei shook his head disdainfully.
"Isn't everything caused by his vanity? If he doesn't tell the story of the Golden Land to show off his adventures, can the king make such a request to him?
In other words, when he spoke about the existence of the Golden Land, didn't he consider such a result? Didn't he think that his words would make everyone who heard them, including the king, greedy?
Speaking from my perspective, if I were Rolando, even if I died, I would not lead the king and soldiers to find and deal with my former friend!
Rolando would never be so naive as to think that the king and his soldiers would make friends with the Shantora people on Gaya Island like him!"
"Wait a minute, Jinbei, you are wrong. There is no Shantora in Sky Island, only Sandora!"
Rayleigh corrected Jinbei.
After listening to Rayleigh's words, Jinbe nodded and continued.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether it's Shantora or Sandora, they were both betrayed by Rolando!
If Rolando and the king finally find them, then one of them or the king will lie completely on the ground!
And this, huh, I would rather be directly questioned and killed by the king, and misunderstood by people all over the world, and I can't do anything to lead the way!
Even if I die, I don’t want to see the disappointed look in my friends’ eyes!”
After saying that, Jinbe glanced at Culiquet with disdain. At this moment, he no longer yearned for the truth about Rolando.
And Gawain.
Listening to everyone's thoughts, he waved his hand gently.
"Okay, guys, it's not polite to talk about other people's ancestors in front of other people.
What's more, what we want to prove is only the truth of that year, not to judge what kind of person Rolando is.
What kind of person he is has nothing to do with us, we will not put gold on him, if it were not for the existence of gold, then we may not have the idea of landing on the sky island!"
Having said this, Gawain smiled.
"Anyway, continue to exercise and then take a good rest, everyone.
After all the reporters from Morgans arrived, we were right in front of them and in their cameras, soaring into the sky!
