The Ticket to God Valley
"God Valley?"
Luo repeated it.
No one spoke on the communicator.
Lami asked, "What place is that?"
"An island that no longer exists."
Drake said, "The God Valley disappeared thirty-eight years ago."
"What does this have to do with my parents?"
Doflamingo said, "They've been there."
"When?"
"After the Great Fire of Flevance."
Luo pressed the Den Den Mushi) close to the cabin wall.
How did you know?
"Because they took something with them."
"What?"
"The ticket to God Valley."
Luo looked at the metal box.
The third metal box had an old wooden plaque pressed against its bottom, with the clinic's seal on the front and a string of numbers engraved on the back.
Miiru has finally restored communication.
Don't listen to him.
Luo asked, "Do you know about the God Valley?"
"Know."
"My parents went there?"
"I've been there."
Why didn't you say so?
They won't let me say it.
They are dead now.
"Therefore, you absolutely cannot say it."
Luo glanced at Lami.
Who taught you that?
Miiru remained silent for a moment.
"Your mother."
Lami held the letter.
What did Mom say?
She said that anyone who knew about God Valley would be taken away.
"Then why are you still alive?"
I didn't go to the island.
Doflamingo interrupted.
"He's been there."
"Shut up."
"Mr. Miiru, do you think sinking the ship in the mine will hide that shipping route?"
"You bought bed number seventeen to find a flight route."
"I bought the bed to find someone."
Who to look for?
"Find someone who has seen God Valley."
Luo asked, "Is it my father?"
Doflamingo did not answer immediately.
Luo held the Kikoku next to the Den Den Mushi.
"Go on."
"Not your father."
"Is it your mother?"
"No, not at all."
Who is that?
"A person who survived the God Valley."
The thin lines on the hull suddenly tightened.
The White Swallow slid forward half a foot, its hull scraping against the rock, and several pieces of wood fell into the cabin.
Lami reached out and grabbed the armrest of the wheelchair.
Luo immediately shielded her behind him.
"Bear, can you tow the boat away?"
"Can."
"How long?"
Six minutes.
"We don't have six minutes."
Aokiji's voice came through the external communication.
"The fighting has already broken out on the naval front."
Luo asked, "Are you still there?"
"I'm stopping the Medical Department for you."
Do you need any help?
"Bring your sister out first."
How much do you know about the God Valley?
"I know a little."
"Explain."
"Rosinante asked me something before he died."
"What's up?"
"If a child is born in the God Valley and is later erased from the world, is he still considered a person of this world?"
Lami looked at the communicator.
"Calculate."
Aokiji did not respond.
Luo asked, "Why did he ask you?"
"Because he saw a child that day."
"Who?"
"I have no idea."
Doflamingo's laughter rang out.
"Kuzan, is that all you know?"
"More than you."
Do you know where that child went afterward?
You know?
I know he's on the ship right now.
Luo looked toward the ship's medical room.
Seventeen Hospital Beds are now empty.
Only Lami was in a wheelchair.
Who are you talking about?
"You can ask Miiru."
Luo turned his head.
Miiru's voice came through the communicator.
He's lying.
"You said there was a survivor in God Valley."
That person isn't on the ship.
Where is he?
"I have no idea."
"Have you seen it?"
I've seen it.
"What kind?"
"Just like you."
Luo remained silent.
Lami looked down at his hands.
"Is that your brother?"
"No."
Miiru's answer was too quick.
Luo asked, "Who is that?"
"Someone who looks a lot like your father."
Doflamingo said, "His name is Trafalgar D. Wa Tie'er."
The Kikoku in Luo's hand fell an inch.
The Den Den Mushi went silent.
Lami looked at him.
"Elder brother?"
Luo did not answer.
Vegapunk immediately took over.
"This name does not exist in government records."
"Because he has never registered."
"D?"
Didn't your father tell you?
Luo looked at the clinic's stamp in the metal box.
My father never mentioned it.
"He dared not mention it," Miiru said.
"Why?"
"Because Wa Tie'er is the doctor of the God Valley."
Why is there a doctor in God Valley?
There are many people there.
The government says there are no residents there.
"The government also said that people in Flevance are contagious."
Luo took out the nautical chart from the ship's medical room.
The map shows only a black sea area with a circle drawn in the center.
There was a line of text written on the circle.
[God Valley, the final handover]
Lami reached out and touched the edge of the map.
My name is on it.
Luo looked over.
There is a string of small print on the back of the map.
[Trafalgar Lami, stable condition, recipient, Xiong]
This is a transfer request.
Communication was established Sengoku.
"This is what Xiong got back then."
Why didn't he take Lami with him?
She refused.
Why is there a third person in the photo?
"He's in charge of protecting the application."
Luo asked, "Do you know who he is?"
The Sengoku did not answer immediately.
Doflamingo replaced him.
"That was a king."
Luo looked up.
Which king?
"The one who once ruled God Valley."
"Is there no kingdom in God Valley?"
"There is no open kingdom."
Where is he now?
"Dead."
"Have you seen his body?"
"No."
"Then what makes you say he's dead?"
Doflamingo did not answer.
Lami suddenly gripped Luo's hand tightly.
"Brother, there are people at the bottom of the boat."
Luo immediately turned around.
Next to the three iron boxes, the wooden planks slowly moved to the sides.
There were no bodies below.
There was only one narrow ladder leading to the bottom of the ship.
Footsteps came from the top of the ladder.
Step.
Wait a minute.
One more step.
Drake raised his knife.
Who's down there?
There was no response.
Luo extended the room to the bottom of the ship.
After the view shifted, there was only a small cabin sealed off by iron plates.
There is a bear paw print carved on the door.
Aokiji said, "Don't open it."
"Why?"
"The bear didn't tell you to drive."
He didn't tell me not to open it.
The sound of a bear came from behind.
There were no patients in that cabin.
What is that?
"Boat ticket."
"Tickets to God Valley?"
"Right."
Whose is it?
"Your parents'."
Luo looked at Lami.
"Are they going to the God Valley?"
They've already been there.
"Then why keep the boat ticket?"
Because only one person came back.
"Who?"
The bear did not answer.
The submarine outside collided with the White Swallow again.
The ship is listing.
Lami slid off the wheelchair, and Luo reached out to catch her.
Chopper shouted through the communicator, "Don't let her hit her head!"
"I know."
"Send her back!"
"Not yet."
"Luo!"
"There are clues about my parents in the hull of the ship."
Chopper's voice paused for a moment.
"After you open the door, make sure there's no danger inside."
"Good."
Luo handed Lami over to Drake.
Protect her.
Where are you going?
"Open the door."
"I'll do it."
You stay with her.
Drake took Lami carefully, as if afraid of touching the tubes attached to her body.
Lami grabbed his clothes.
"Your name is Drake?"
"Right."
"Corazon saved you."
"Right."
"Then you have to protect my brother."
Drake looked at Luo.
"I can."
Luo walked to the iron gate.
There was only one keyhole on the door; there was no key.
He placed his hand on it.
Expand ROOM.
The internal structure of the lock cylinder is clearly visible.
There is no mechanism inside the lock cylinder.
Only a small piece of flesh and blood.
That's fingerprint tissue left after someone pressed their finger on it.
Vegapunk said, "This is a bio-lock."
Whose fingerprints are needed?
"The Trafalgar Family."
Luo pressed his thumb on it.
The iron gate remained closed.
Lami said, "Brother, switch to your left hand."
Luo switched hands.
The door lock clicked.
The iron gate slid inward.
There were no boat tickets inside.
There was only one skeleton strapped to a chair.
The skeleton had an old naval badge hanging from its chest.
There was a Den Den Mushi) next to it.
Luo walked over, Den Den Mushi activated on its own.
A hoarse male voice rang out.
"If Luo opens the door, tell him that his parents haven't abandoned him."
Luo looked at the plaque on the skeleton's chest.
A name is engraved on it.
Monkey D. Garp
The voice on the Den Den Mushi continued:
"If it's not Luo who opens the door, sink the ship immediately."
