Chapter 143: Nolando and Gaya Island (Please Subscribe)
"Hey, kid, the look in your eyes seems to recognize what I'm holding.
Raleigh asked, looking into the little boy's eyes.
The little boy was startled by Raleigh's words and quickly lowered his head.
But because of some mysterious persistence, the little boy's lowered head was struggling, as if he wanted to overcome some kind of inner obstacle.
Luo Li has seen many such scenes. Generally speaking, at such times, the other party should be quiet.
If the other party breaks through the obstacles in their heart, then there is no need to do anything next, and the other party will tell the whole truth about the matter.
If the other party does not break through the obstacles in their heart, then nothing they do next will be able to open the other party's mouth.
Time passed bit by bit, and it seemed like a span of a century had passed in the little boy's world. Finally, he raised his head. Yes, Lord Navy, I know what you are holding.
There was a copper pocket watch in Luo Li's palm, he took a look at it and said with a smile]
I thought you would think about it for a long time, but it only took less than ten minutes. "
"Come on kid, have a drink and we'll listen to your story."
The little boy took the rope thrown down by the naval soldier and climbed up the rock along the hull. Although he felt the sudden appearance here, although the behavior of Raleigh and his group was a bit rough, they were all kind-hearted people.
Besides, what they were holding in their hands were artifacts that proved the existence of the Golden Land.
Soon, the little boy followed the rope to the deck.
Raleigh ordered someone to bring a square table on the deck, and asked the chef to bring some wine and drinks, and then placed the gold products in his hands on the table.
"Kid, look at it."
"Thank you, Lord Marine."
After the little boy thanked him, he carefully held the gold object in his hand and looked at it carefully.
While observing, he couldn't help showing a look of joy, and murmured:
"Yes, according to the records in the ethnic register, this nation did make utensils of this shape.
Raleigh took a sip of the rum with ice cubes that had just been served, and did not speak to urge him to watch the little boy's speed.
After the little boy carefully observed the gold object, he said in hindsight:
I'm sorry, Lord Navy, I just lost my temper. It's really because this thing is too precious. "
Raleigh nodded, indicating that he didn't mind.
The little boy held up the gold object with his hands so that Raleigh in front of him and the naval soldiers around him could see it more clearly.
"My Lords of the Navy, this unique gold object is a unique sacrificial artifact of the Shandia clan, a special nation on Gaya Island four hundred years ago."
My ancestors once described the living customs and traditional rituals of the Shandia clan in detail, so I could recognize them at a glance. "
The little boy's words caused a commotion on the deck.
"What? Something from four hundred years ago?"
"It's really amazing to be able to connect with the mysterious race from four hundred years ago.'
It was really unexpected. I originally thought it was a handicraft on a merchant ship.
Raleigh, who didn't really care at first, suddenly sat up straight and looked at the little boy in front of him with burning eyes. His strange eyes startled the little boy.
Could it be that of the Shandia clan on Gaya Island, your ancestor is Nolandu? "
Although Raleigh spoke in doubt, he had already defined the little boy in front of him in his heart. Only the descendants of Nolando believed in the legend of the Golden Land.
Qi, Lord Navy, how do you know my family?
The little boy looked at Raleigh with a confused look on his face. Suddenly he seemed to remember something and quickly covered his mouth.
Bese Melejinod's eyes showed confusion, as if he had a very familiar feeling.
Nolando seems familiar. "
"Yes, I feel the same way. I always feel like I have heard this name somewhere."
"Hey, when you said that, it left a deep impression on me, but I just can't put it into words."
Some soldiers on the deck who were born and grew up in the North Sea suddenly felt that the name Nolando was very familiar, but they were not particularly impressed.
It seems that this name is widely circulated in Beihai, but he has no special great deeds, so the naval soldiers were not able to confront any person for a while.
Raleigh rubbed his brow, drank another large glass of rum, and then said slowly:
"A bunch of idiots, Nolando's full name is Wenbra Nolando."
“But in Beihai, he has another code name, called the Big Talker.
After Raleigh finished speaking, the soldiers on the deck showed expressions of realization on their faces:
No wonder it sounded familiar to me. It turned out to be a fairy tale that my mother told me when I was a child. "
If you say Wenbula Nolando, I may not know it, but if you say he is a great talker in Beihai, I think almost everyone in Beihai doesn't know about it. "
It's incredible that Nolando is your ancestor, little devil. "
After hearing the discussion of the people around him, the little boy raised his little fist, grinding his little tiger teeth back and forth.
With an expression of anger and restraint on his face, he said righteously:
My ancestor Wembura Nolando was not a big talker in the North Sea, he was a great navigator. "
The ancestors of Nolandu once landed at the port of Gaya Island on a stormy night in order to escape the terrifying storm. "
According to the clan records, Nolandu's ancestors once cured the Shandia clan that was seriously affected by "tree fever", ended the traditional ritual of human sacrifice, and also became friends with the "great warrior" Kalgara. Good friends who hit it off instantly. "
The little boy was talking, his big round eyes filled with tears.
For more than four hundred years, his family has been suffering from strange looks from the people of Beihai. Almost everyone thinks that Nolando is the most famous liar and big talker in Beihai.
Their family has spent their entire lives trying to prove that their ancestors did not lie, and they traveled to the small islands that Nolando once passed by on the Grand Route, trying to find traces to prove it all.
Now, with the appearance of this golden artifact, it is confirmed that a race called the Shandia clan once existed in this place.
How could such a thing not make the little boy not excited?
Raleigh brought a glass of rum with ice cubes in front of the little boy, patted his shoulder and said:
Things will eventually pass, and perhaps the shame your family has been carrying will end in your hands. "
I believe that if Nolando did write about the Shandia family on the pressurized island in his notebook, then this race must exist. "
Mainly Raleigh knows this part of the story,
Umbra Nolando was indeed a very good navigator, and he did discover gold on the island of Gaya.
It's just that he was unlucky. Although he made detailed records, not long after he left, Gaya Island was suddenly lifted into the sky by a huge upwelling current.
Half of the island was washed high into the sky by the rising sea currents and became an empty island.
The aborigines, animals and plants on the island, as well as ritual objects, historical monuments, etc., all rose to the sky with the sky island.
Patting his head, Raleigh thought about this aspect carefully.
The complete Gaya Island looks like a skull floating on the sea.
Along with the miraculous sea currents, the skull's head and face soared into the sky with a miracle rarely seen in ten thousand years.
The parts left on the ground were all the teeth of the skeleton.
The little boy's eyes turned red, and he never thought that four hundred years had passed since the incident, and that besides members of his family, there were people who thought Nolando was not a liar.
The already red eyes were filled with complicated tears.
"Thank you, sir, for your trust. Our ancestors will definitely be happy if they find out."
Four hundred years can change a lot of things, but there are also many things that cannot be changed in four hundred years.
Since Nolando, the purpose of the Wembula family's existence is to persist in the archeology of Nolando's deeds.
They don't want a figure in their family with such a glorious story to become a laughing stock. "If you recover well, you can tell us the story of your ancestor Nolando."
I believe this must be a wonderful story. After all, in the book records, many things other than the Golden Land have been brushed aside. "
The little boy looked at Raleigh with a touched heart, lowered his head respectfully and said:
Lord Navy, thank you for your recognition of our ancestors. "
Then the little boy raised his head with a resolute expression and said with deep admiration in his eyes;
My ancestor Umbra Nolando once recorded in his notes that he traveled through the two great routes,
Although the Grand Line is full of dangers, in the eyes of my ancestor Nolando, all these are just a few hardships in the journey. "
"When Nolando's ancestor set out on the Grand Route for the second time, he set sail in the dark and arrived at Gaya Island to avoid a rare heavy rainstorm."
At that time, in order to avoid the damage of the storm, the ancestors of Nolandu anchored the ship in the port and landed on the island. However, at this time, the ancestors of Nolandu encountered Shantora who wanted to sacrifice a girl to cure the plague. "
"Ancestor Nolandu thought this was a very foolish and ignorant approach. For the sake of this poor girl, Ancestor Nolandu single-handedly stopped this sacrifice. And when the god of sacrifice on the island arrived, a knife Cut off this big snake called the God of Gacy.”
And because of the situation where Nolandu's ancestor saved the girl, the ancestor had a head-on confrontation with Calgara, the strongest warrior in Shandorla at that time. Although the ancestor was stabbed by Calgara to protect the girl, the ancestor did not fail. "
When the ancestors were looking for herbs to cure the plague, due to a sudden change in the environment, the ancestors of Nolandu were stuck between two islands. In order to escape, the ancestors lifted up part of another continent. "
Just because the ancestors solved the plague problem on Gaya Island, the Shandiye clan on Gaya Island regarded their ancestors as their best friends and abolished the custom of human sacrifice at the advice of their ancestors. "
After that, Ancestor Nolandu stayed for a long time in Shantora, the most magnificent and spectacular place on Gaya Island. It was there that Ancestor Nolandu saw a huge number of gold products and treasures such as golden clocks. Later, You already know the story. "
The little boy's story was so exciting that two hours passed before he knew it.
Although the time was a bit too long, the excitement of the story made everyone ignore the time and immerse themselves in Nolando's adventure story.
Under the little boy's narration, the image of a man with a bold personality, who likes to help others and makes friends, and who is very powerful appears in the mind of every naval soldier. "Oh my God, I just can't imagine it!"
It is unimaginable that we could have crossed the Grand Route twice four hundred years ago. "
I now believe Nolando's deeds. He is definitely not the big liar rumored in Beihai, but a reputable man. "
Raleigh did not interrupt the naval soldiers’ discussion]
In fact, he doesn't care that much about Nolando, but there is indeed something he wants on the empty island.
The top natural devil fruit - Thunder Fruit and Enel, who is born with terrifying sight, hearing and color.
Raleigh wants them all!
After a brief period of excitement, the little boy quickly became depressed again. Although this item can prove that the ancestors of Nolandu did meet the Shandia family, it does not prove that it is Shantora. More evidence is needed. . "
After hearing this, Raleigh raised the corners of his mouth:
“Besemereginod, go and get a chart of Gaya Island.
‘Yes, Lord Raleigh. "
Bessemereginod then quickly brought the chart that Raleigh needed and delivered it to Raleigh, along with a pen.
Raleigh spread the chart flat on the left, pointed to Gaya Island currently on the chart and asked:
This is the current chart,
What does Gaya Island look like to you? "
The little boy was stunned for a moment, looked at it carefully, and then said in an uncertain tone;
I think it should be a human tooth on Jiaye Island.
Looking at Gaya Island on the map, the little boy's first reaction was that it looked like human teeth.
Raleigh snapped his fingers, gave the little boy an appreciative look, and praised:
"Yes, you can see it at a glance.
Later, Luo Li used the pen in his hand to write and draw on the saved sea map. Although Luo Li's pen tip kept wandering on the paper, a decent-looking skull appeared at the location of Gaya Island.
"This is what our ancestor once wrote in his notes. He saw gold in the skull's right eye."
the little boy shouted excitedly.
For hundreds of years, the Wembula family has been trying to decipher the secrets of the writings left by Nolando, especially the descriptions of the Golden Land recorded in the notebooks. However, no one has ever thought that maybe Nolando's writings were not. There is no riddle, but because the external environment has changed, there is no original reference.
Raleigh put down the pen, pointed at the skull's head and face and said;
"If a rising sea current that has never been recorded in any data but far exceeds people's imagination appeared at the bottom of Gaya Island many years ago, then it is very likely that Gaya Island was divided into two, and Nolando once visited it. All the places flew into the sky.”
This is why the entire North Sea, including Nolando himself, has been searching for four hundred years but cannot find the Golden Land, because it is above our heads. "
In fact, if he hadn't had the memory of his past life, then Raleigh might never have imagined that the Golden Land recorded in the North Sea would become an island floating in the sky.
