The Order Archive Awakened

"Order Archive is awake."

As Void Seven finished speaking, the black pages behind the narrow white door surged out along the crack in the door, and the Black Line on the threshold that had just been cut off under Luo Ya's feet climbed back up to the edge of his boots, as if trying to drag the name he had responded to back into the book.

Sabo slammed the flames to the ground. "Kizaru, intercept the right flare."

Kizaru raised his hand and fired a beam of light. "Switch to the right, leave the left to the Marine."

Koby clenched his fist and stepped forward, Armament Haki covering his arms. "I'll handle this."

Tashigi drew her sword and stood in front of Mia, saying, "Mia, keep recording, don't stop."

Mia's pen flew erratically across the paper, "Order Archive Throne Mark appears, and Luo Ya's response is subsequently recorded."

Bonney called towards the door, "Luo Ya, hold on to your name."

Luo Ya raised his hand, but it was held back by the remaining black mark on his neck. His voice was broken, "A name... it's too heavy... I can't hold it."

The bear pressed its hand against the Golden Light outside the door, saying, "Distribute the weight."

Vegapunk immediately said, "No, name recycling isn't a transfer of harm; Kuma's abilities can't directly remove the burden of the rules."

Lumi stood up from the Victim Seat. "Then ask, can someone else help carry the name?"

Lin Qi did not hesitate.

[Name-based question]

[Question: When Luo Ya is initially unable to independently bear the return of his old name after the Personality Seal is broken, should he allow multiple witnesses to temporarily take over the name recording until he can reliably confirm it?]

[A. Not allowed, cannot afford it, will restore the number]

[B. Not allowed; the old name should be revoked]

[C. Can be managed by the Throne]

[D. With the consent of the individual, multiple witnesses may temporarily serve as evidence of their name, but this cannot supersede the individual's will.]

Makino pressed the button, "Civilian Witness Seat, D."

Lumi said, "Victim Seat, D."

Akainu said, "Navy Seat, D."

Longdao: "Revolutionary Army Seat, D."

Buggy stared at the screen. "Pirate Joint Seat, D. A name that carries weight needs more people to carry it."

Marco said, "D."

Jinbe said, "D."

[Answer: D]

[Name-based support activated]

Golden Light split into several thin lines from beneath Luo Ya's feet, one end connecting to the Black Seal Tube of evidence, another to Rayleigh and Buggy's testimonies, another to Mia's paper record, and yet another to the Name Card in Xing's hand.

Xing looked down at the glowing card, "Can I also use it?"

Lumi squatted down beside him. "Just hold on to what you're willing to hold on to; let go if it makes you uncomfortable."

Xing nodded, pressing her finger against the corner of the card, "Luo Ya."

When Luo Ya, who was standing at the door, heard the name coming from the child's mouth, his heels, which had been dragged back by the Black Line, stopped. He tried to put his hand on his chest, as if looking for a place for himself there.

The black page of Void Seven then turned to the next page, "Order Archive to Counter, the Bearer's Contamination Mark Prepares."

Robin immediately said, "It wants to label everyone who helped bear the name as a source of pollution."

Akainu sneered, "They really do use the same old tricks."

Long Dao: "Writing a general protected name does not equate to tampering with evidence."

Lin Qi typed in the second question.

[Rejection Question Regarding Name-Based Pollution]

[Question: Should the evidence of Luo Ya's name, temporarily entrusted to him by multiple witnesses with his consent, be considered a source of contamination by the Throne mark?]

[A. Should be marked; external support is contaminated]

[B. Should be marked as invalid unless witnessed by Throne]

[C. You can mark it first and then appeal]

[D. It should not be marked; the act of entrusting evidence is to protect the evidence and the victim's wishes, and should not be used by the Throne to suppress witnesses.]

After the unanimous vote of D, the stains that had just appeared on the black page were wiped away one by one by the Golden Light. Buggy watched as the black dots next to his name disappeared, and he patted his chest and cursed.

"You almost pinned another accusation on me."

Shanks said, "You've got quite a few basins on your head today."

Buggy glared at him angrily, "Shut up, Red-Hair! Don't think I didn't see you reaching out to help just now."

Shanks looked at his hand, which was blocked by the avoidance rule. "I can't participate in the decision-making, but I can provide the facts."

Robin said, "You can apply for factual support as a party associated with a missing piece of evidence filed at the same level, but it will require separate review."

Buggy immediately waved his hand, "No way, Red-Hair a move, the Throne will definitely use the Figarland bloodline as leverage."

"It's already doing," Garling said from inside the restraint ring.

On the Sky Screen, a black filing line suddenly appeared between Shanks's blood sample and Luo Ya's Black Seal Tube, as the Throne attempted to reintegrate the two samples into the Figarland Family's property.

Shanks stared at the line, his face darkening. "Using blood to justify it again."

Makino said, "First, cut the line, don't let it drag Luo Ya into the family archives."

Lin Qi pushed the question forward.

[Dual-sample archiving line review question]

[Question: Does the Throne have the right to include Shanks's blood sample and Luo Ya's Black Seal Tube in the Figarland Family's property archives, citing the fact that they were stored on the same floor as the Old Blood Bank?]

[A. Has the right; those on the same floor belong to the same group]

[B. Has the right; the blood bank is managed by the family.]

[C. Temporarily merged, to be distinguished later]

[D. No right; storage on the same floor cannot prove ownership; the Luo Ya Black Seal Tube is evidence of an independent victim; Shanks' blood sample cannot be privatized by the family.]

The vote passed, the Black Line between the two samples was broken, and Shanks' blood sample and Luo Ya's Black Seal Tube were each sealed into independent evidence frames by Golden Light.

Garling watched that scene and whispered, "The Throne hates independent frames the most."

Shanks said, "Because we're independent now, we can no longer be written into your family tree as objects."

Garling did not refute this.

The second Throne Mark inside the gate began to rotate, Void Seven's paper-layered body was rolled up with a rustling sound. He was fixed in place by the Golden Light while being pulled inward by the Order Archive.

"The Order Archive requires the recall of the author, citing the leak of records by Void Seven as the reason."

Bonney rushed over and grabbed Void Seven's exposed paper-thin arm. "How many names do you know?"

Void Seven replied, "Many."

Sabo said, "Then we can't let it be taken back."

Akainu spoke from the Navy Seat, "The author, Void Seven, is both the embodiment of evidence and a potential victim; the Throne cannot be reclaimed."

Long said, "Propose a question."

[Void Seven Recycling Prevention Question]

[Question: Does the Order Archive have the right to retrieve and destroy the records written by Kong Void Seven on the grounds of leaked information?]

[A. Has the authority; the writer is placed in the Order Archives.]

[B. Those who leak information should be removed.]

[C. Recyclable Backup]

[D. Without the right, Void Seven is the carrier of evidence in the Evidence-Destruction Chain and a potential victim; it must undergo multi-party protective sealing after the destruction of evidence ceases.]

After option D passed, Bonney's grip on the paper stopped peeling off, and the black pages of Void Seven flipped open on their own to reveal a list. Each name on the list was Blank, leaving only a few lines of old numbers.

Mia saw one of the lines, and her voice trailed off, "I've seen this number before; it's from a batch before Lumi's."

Lumi heard her name called and her fingers tightened around the Name Card. "There are children too?"

Void Seven said, "Yes, it has been put into the Order Archive; some are servants, some are pages, and some are Echo-less."

Xing looked up, "What does 'Echo-less' mean?"

No one answered immediately.

Lin Qi looked at the screen. "Preserve the list first, without elaborating on the details, to protect privacy."

Robin nodded. "The list has been anonymized and sealed. Rescue efforts will proceed item by item; not all names will be released here."

[Void Seven- List De-identification and Security Question]

[Question: Should the full list of suspected victims exposed by Void Seven be released immediately?]

[A. Full text available]

[B. Entrusted to the Throne for safekeeping]

[C. Not recorded for now]

[D. Desensitization and preservation, establishing an independent rescue index, and the name must not be disclosed without confirmation from the individual or their guardianship protection procedure.]

Unanimous vote: D.

The list was swept up in a separate index by the Golden Light. Lumi grip on the Name Card, as if she had just taken a breath back from the water.

"That's good."

Makino looked at her, "Can you still hold on?"

Lumi nodded, "We can manage, just don't let them post all the names online."

The list of those who saw the Throne Mark of the Order Archive failed to spread, and instead cast a black beam of light toward Foosha Village. The evidence of the water basin remaining in the Ritual Hall was forcibly activated, and a line of text appeared on the Tavern's computer screen.

[Question Terminal overload]

[If interference with the Order Archive continues, the civilian settlements where the Terminals are located will suffer the consequences of the rules.]

Makino's hand pressed against the edge of the table again. "It's still going to hit here."

The Village Chief roared at the door, "What is this 'backlash'? Can't we vote to block it?"

Vegapunk exclaimed urgently, "This isn't a normal attack; it's transferring the burden of the Order Archive rules to the question-generating Terminal. If we try to withstand it head-on, the Terminal will burn out, and it might also injure those nearby."

Lin Qi looked at the increasingly hot computer, with scorch marks already appearing on the edges of the keycaps. "Then remove the load cells."

Long said, "The Revolutionary Army can take over a portion of it."

Akainu said, "The Marine Headquarters can also take on the review workload."

Buggy immediately shouted, "The Pirate Joint Seat should also take on some responsibility; don't dump it all on me!"

Marco said, "The Whitebeard Pirates will take over the medical duties."

Jinbe said, "Fish-Man Island can handle ocean-based teleportation."

Makino looked at Lin Qi, "Don't shoulder this alone."

Lin Qi typed the question, his hands reddening from the heat of the keyboard, but he didn't leave.

[Terminal Load Sharing Problem]

[Question: When the Throne transfers the burden of the Order Archive rules to the question-generating Terminal and the civilian base, should multiple parties be allowed to voluntarily share the review burden in order to protect Foosha Village and the question-generating Terminal?]

[A. Not allowed, Terminal user responsible]

[B. Not permitted; civilian residences should be punished]

[C. The burden can be shared by the Throne.]

[D. Permitted, the burden shall be shared by the Navy, Revolutionary Army, Pirate Joint Seat, Future Island Technical Team, and various voluntary areas according to their capabilities, and shall not be transferred to civilians who have not consented.]

Just as the voting lights were about to fall, a voice from behind the Black Gate drowned out the Sky Screen.

Those who share the burden will be considered equal to outsiders.

Akainu's hand rested on the button. "Navy Seat, D."

Dragon followed closely behind, "Revolutionary Army Seat, D."

Buggy retorted, "Equal charges are equal, I don't mind having one more charge, D."

Makino pressed the button on the Civilian Witness Seat, "D."

Lumi said, "D."

[Answer: D]

[Terminal load balancing enabled]

Golden Light emanated from the computer in the Foosha Village Tavern, connecting to the Marine Headquarters, the Revolutionary Army base, the Red-Hair Fleet, the Whitebeard Pirates, Future Island, and many other islands that voluntarily lit up. The scorch marks on the computer stopped spreading, and Lin Qi's fingers finally lifted from the keyboard.

However, the second Throne Mark within the narrow white door did not disappear; instead, it merged all the scattered light into a larger black frame.

The sound of Void Seven turning pages trembled as he said, "Order Archive to start the Master Page."

Robin's expression changed. "What's the Master Page '?"

Garling looked up, his eyes revealing an undisguised fear for the first time. "A complete directory of all those deleted."

In the center of the Sky Screen, a giant book without a cover slowly opened, with only one sentence written on the first page.

[If the catalog is made public, the world will forget all testimonies outside of it.]
