Chapter 334 The True Face of the Burned Man
"Fish..."
Beckman stroked his chin and said hesitantly:
"Is the so-called Burned Man actually a fish or a group of fish? This is consistent with the rumor that the Burned Man controls the power of controlling the waves and will drown all those who covet the historical text.
Speaking of which, I have never believed that there is any devil fruit that can control the waves. The sea is the nemesis of the ability users. If there is a fruit that can control the waves, then the person who eats this fruit will be invincible and can easily suppress all the ability users?"
Katakuri at this time He also analyzed:
"If everything is as Ms. Robin speculated, then doesn't it mean that the last red signpost historical text has never been lost from the beginning, and it has been placed near Fishman Island from beginning to end, but it was just hidden by a group of fish?"
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go to Fishman Island now to find the last signpost historical text."
When Yamato and the little rabbit Carrot thought that the last signpost historical text and the final island Raftel were just around the corner, they were excited.

"I say, aren't you all too optimistic?"
Just when everyone was extremely excited because of Robin's inference, Crocodile once again poured cold water on everyone.
He looked around and said coldly:
"If the burned man is a human, I think it might be easier to find him, but if it is a fish... Do you know how many kinds of fish there are in the world?
Do you know how many cubs a fish can produce in one litter?
Not to mention the distant ones, there are probably more than 10,000 kinds of fish in the Fishman Island alone. Do we have to stay in the Fishman Island and check all the fish one by one for a signpost historical text?"
Although these words were a bit harsh, they gradually calmed down the excited crowd.
While the words were rough, the truth was not rough. Crocodile's words actually made sense.
Looking for a certain kind of fish in the sea without any clue is no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
Hancock couldn't stand Crocodile's nagging attitude, so he snorted and said:
"It's not as troublesome as you said. Hey, red hair over there, think about what kind of fish were the most around you at the time? Can't we just follow this clue to find it?"
"This..."
Shanks was stunned by Hancock's question. He thought and struggled for a long time but couldn't remember what kind of fish were the most around them at the time.
At that time, everyone's attention was on the main text of the red road sign history. It was rare to notice that there were fish around, so who would care about which specific fish was spying on them.
Noticing Shanks' sweaty face, Beckman sighed helplessly:
"Sorry, our captain's brain is really... a pity, so I'm afraid I can't help you on this point."
Just as Shanks was scratching his head and laughing, Crocodile snorted complacently, and Hancock wanted to express his dissatisfaction with Shanks, Robin spoke again:
"It's a whale!"
When she said this, everyone present was stunned, and they couldn't understand why Robin suddenly mentioned the whale.
Even Ornn felt a little puzzled and couldn't help asking:
"Why do you think it was the whale that took away the last red signpost historical text?"
"Remember the signpost historical text we saw in Zou? That historical text was placed in..."
Before Robin finished speaking, the little rabbit Carrot beside him became excited, waving his little paws and said with joy;
"It's the Whale Tree in the Whale Forest!"
"That's right!" Robin smiled and rewarded the little rabbit with a Kaluqiu, which made the little rabbit smile silly.
"When I arrived at the Whale Forest and saw the Whale Tree, I was always curious, are there really trees in this world that can grow into that shape?
Even if it is really a natural cause, it doesn't make sense that only that tree turns into the shape of a whale. Logically, all the trees in the entire Whale Forest should turn into that shape.
So I suspect that the Whale Tree should be artificially carved or guided to grow into that shape. This may be a kind of sacrificial worship of ancient people. Or perhaps it is a guide left for us by our predecessors who placed the roadside historical text.
No matter which reason it is, it is enough to show that the huge ancient kingdom must have a connection with whales."
The group of people who heard this were skeptical, but only Orn's eyes lit up completely.
As a time traveler, he has read the original comics and witnessed all the plot developments in the original work. He believes Robin's reasoning very much.
Because one of the important reasons that drives the Straw Hat Pirates to keep moving forward is to see the Red Earth Continent again and let Brook and Island Whale Lab reunite.
He also remembered that in the original comic story, Luffy and his companions encountered a deep-sea undercurrent called "White Tornado" when they left Fishman Island and rode the rising current back to the surface.
At the critical moment when everyone was about to be buried at the bottom of the sea, it was Lab's tribe, that is, a large number of island whales, who saved them.
When Luffy, who like Roger has the ability to hear the sounds of all things, asked the Island Whales "Would you like to give us a ride?", the Island Whales responded with a smile.
When he first watched this plot, he just thought that Oda simply wanted to have a romance and show off his super imagination, but now that he thinks about it, this may be a foreshadowing that was laid long ago.
Finally, looking back at the history of the Straw Hats harvesting three road signs, we can find out.
In addition to Zou's piece of historical text on the road sign, whether it is Kaido's piece of historical text on the road sign or Auntie's piece of historical text on the road sign, they were all rubbed by Brooke as the chief c.
From this perspective, it seems to also allude to the origin between the historical text of the red road sign and the whale!
However, he obviously couldn't analyze these conclusions with everyone, so after thinking about it, he changed his explanation to make Robin more convincing and said:
"I believe Robin's inference. Do you still remember the piece of ordinary historical text we saw on Fish-Man Island? It was the piece that Robin cracked and found out that it was Joey Boy's apology letter. Historical text!
Joeyboy failed to help Aquaman realize his request to move Fish-Man Island to land, but Aquaman was obviously still thinking about it.
Therefore, she may have used her own ability to ask the Island Whales to guard the red road sign and wait for the arrival of Joyboy's successor.
Waiting for the new era's Neptune to meet the new era's Joey Boy, and through the power of the new era's Neptune, he can break this eight-hundred-year-old agreement and hand over the last and most important piece of roadmap history to Joey Boy. Yi's hand. "
Aoun's words attracted Yamato and others to express their agreement.
Shanks also spoke at this time:
"Whether Ms. Robin's inference is true or not, at least for us now, this is the only direction we can try.
While the World Government hasn't made many big moves yet, in this last period of time, why not go to Fish-Man Island to find out more.
Go visit King Neptune and ask him where the island whales are now. Ask him if he can find the current Aquaman! "
As soon as Shanks said these words, everyone present cheered in agreement.
Early the next morning, the group boarded the Hearth and Redforth respectively and began to move towards Fish-Man Island.
The two four emperors joined forces on this sea, so naturally they couldn't find an opponent who dared to raise eyebrows.
The group of people successfully arrived at the waters near Fish-Man Island and dived all the way after coating.
After a long voyage, everyone finally arrived at Fish-Man Island.
Because Fishman Island was worried about the forced summons from the World Government, they paid attention to the rumors from the outside early in the morning.
After noticing the appearance of the Furnace, the guards of Fishman Island immediately informed King Neptune of the good news.
King Neptune was overjoyed when he heard that Ornn had come to visit Fish-Man Island. Without even thinking about it, he took his children out to greet him.
"Captain Orne, it's been such a long time!"
As soon as they met, King Neptune greeted Aoun from a distance.
Behind him, the Shark Star Prince, the Royal Star Prince, the Car Star Prince, and the White Star Princess also smiled and greeted Aoun and others.
Noticing Shirahoshi greeting them, Yamato and the others rushed over and gathered around Shirahoshi talking and laughing, causing Shirahoshi, who was usually timid and rarely smiled, to laugh brightly.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the group came to Dragon Palace City as guests.
At the banquet, Aoun did not hesitate to talk about their idea of finding the last piece of historical text of the road sign, and told all their deductions.
After hearing Ornn say that the last red road sign historical text might have been taken away by the island whale group, King Neptune couldn't help but widen his eyes and said:
"From what you said, it is quite possible that during the most chaotic period of Fish-Man Island, there was indeed a situation where a group of island whales surrounded and defended Fish-Man Island.
It’s just that we didn’t take it to heart at the time. After all, as you know, we fishmen are born with a strong affinity with some fish, and we just thought it was summoned by some kind of fishman to protect the fishman island.
As for the activity trajectory of the island whale group, it is easy to find out. For a period of time every year, the island whales pass by the Fishman Island with the tidal movement and go to warm waters to mate and give birth.
The calculation time is around this time, so I can be sure that there should be a group of island whales in the waters near the Fishman Island now. "
As soon as he heard that the activity track of the Island Whale was clear, Shanks immediately thought about Neptune:
"What about Neptune! It is not an easy task for the island whales to willingly hand over the historical text of the red road sign to us. If there is no Neptune as a middleman to help us communicate, how can we convey our knowledge to the island whales? What's your intention?"
"Neptune……"
Hearing these two words, the smile on King Neptune's face faded a little. He looked at Ornn, Shanks and the others. After hesitating for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and said:
"Captain Orn will tell you the truth. In fact, the so-called Sea King...is my daughter Bai Xing!"
"well?!!!"
As soon as King Neptune spoke these words, everyone in the audience was shocked. Even Bai Xing himself covered his mouth in surprise, and at the same time pointed at himself with a confused expression:
"Who? Me? How could I do such a thing?"
King Neptune looked at his most beloved daughter and hesitated for a moment, and finally told the truth about that year:
"Daughter, in fact, that annoying Vander Deken III has been unwilling to let you go and pursues you crazily. In fact, it is precisely because of your identity."
"Huh?!" Bai Xing couldn't help but be even more surprised when he heard this, and even felt a little conflicted about such an identity.
It turns out that it was precisely because of this status that he could only spend his childhood in a dim and lightless hard-shell tower?
Noticing Shirahoshi's sad expression, Yamato next to Shirahoshi suddenly held her finger and said:
"Baixing, don't complain because of your identity. We can't decide our origins, but we can decide what path we want to take in the future.
In fact, I would have hated my origin just like you, and hated why I was Kaido's son instead of Kozuki Oden's son..."
In order to comfort Shirahoshi, Yamato told her about her childhood and how she later met Orn, and corrected her wrong mentality bit by bit with Orn's help.
Seeing that Bai Xing had listened to her words and no longer felt sorry for herself because of her status as Neptune, she smiled and said again:
"Besides, wouldn't you know if you can do something just by trying it? If you don't try something, how will you know you can't do it?"
"me……"
Shirahoshi lowered his head, hesitating and looking towards others besides Yamato unconsciously.
She looked at her father, her brothers, and at the encouraging looks of Ornn, Yamato, Robin, Rhea and others, and she seemed to draw strength from these looks.
Gradually, the panic in her eyes subsided, and her breathing was no longer rapid.
Finally, Bai Xing raised his head and looked at King Neptune firmly:
"Father, Mr. Aoun is kind to us and to Fish-Man Island. He is my great benefactor. If possible, I want to do my best to repay Mr. Aoun's kindness!"
Hearing that Bai Xing could muster up the courage to say such remarks, King Neptune couldn't help but burst into tears with excitement.
He had been waiting for this day for too long.
My daughter, my daughter who is destined to shoulder the responsibility of Neptune, is finally going to take her first brave step!
