"Wait a minute!"

"Please wait a moment!"

As Oboro and his companions stepped out of the tavern, preparing to take to the skies...

Suddenly, a group of people arrived late, and the leader shouted loudly.

Panting heavily.

It's them.

Kaka is so happy.

The newcomers were none other than the Saruyama Alliance led by Mont Blanc Cricket.

"Oh? So you knew we were back..."

Dom was also somewhat surprised.

"Please wait a moment."

Seeing that the Hell Pirates hadn't flown away, Mont Blanc Cricket, covered in sweat, ran nearby, knelt down with a thud, and kowtowed deeply to Oboro, performing a grand salute.

The sudden action surprised the members, including Oboro.

However, Oboro suddenly realized why Mont Blanc Cricket did this.

After observing the 'miracle phenomenon' at sea, Mont Blanc Cricket realized that the Hell Pirates soon return to Jaya Island, having witnessed firsthand their ability to fly. Traveling between land and air was no problem for them.

"Yesterday... the sound of that bell yesterday, that strange sight at sea, was it your doing?"

Mont Blanc Cricket asked loudly, his voice trembling.

"Yes."

Long nodded.

"You really found the Golden City... it really exists, right?"

Mont Blanc Cricket suddenly looked up, and the eyes of this tough man were now filled with tears.

"Yes...you can break free from the curse that binds your bloodline." Long nodded again. "The Golden Bell will ring again, even though the one who rang it is not your ancestor, and the person who made the pact with the Shandia is no longer here...but it can still be seen as the fulfillment of the 'pact'."

As descendants of the great liar Rolando, the Mont Blanc Cricket lineage is condemned and scorned from birth.

He salvaged the items that had fallen into the sea in order to find gold... to prove everything related to the Golden City.

And they've been doing it for several years already.

"Could you please..." Mont Blanc Cricket began, about to speak.

But Long seemed to know what he wanted to say, and his tone suddenly turned cold, "Knowing the outcome... is already a relief for you, don't ask for too much. Your ancestors and the story of the Shandia are all history... and they are not important to the world now."

Mont Blanc Cricket wants to use his influence to vouch for Rolando, but Oboro won't do that.

Because Skypiea has now become his fixed resource supply point... Once word gets out from him, Skypiea will surely become the 'center of the storm'.

This is something Oboro doesn't want to see.

For most One Piece, Skypiea remains a legend.

"I swear to be loyal to you to the death."

"I'm also a One Piece... My bounty is tens of millions, not weak at all."

Mont Blanc Cricket patted his chest and introduced himself.

The two gorillas standing nearby looked on with obvious displeasure.

"Hey... should we kill him?"

Enel clicked his tongue, tilted his head, and his eyes flashed with murderous intent.

He had no time to waste in this place; he needed to get to his destination and complete his mission as quickly as possible.

Long glanced at Mont Blanc Cricket, who still wanted to say something, and then used his ability to lift the group up from the ground.

"Your ancestor was great... Four hundred years ago, Roland arrived at Green Bit and helped the Tontatta Tribe drive out the bad guys, earning him the title of hero. He also traveled to the Grand Line several times, and even though the world considered him a fraud, he never thought of defending himself. The spectacle of his execution was no less grand than that of the One Piece Roger hundreds of years later... If he wanted to, he had many ways to prove the existence of the Golden City. But he didn't... Have you ever wondered why?"

"..."

"You should be proud of him... When the time is right, the Golden City will naturally reappear."

With his hat brim pressed down, Long left Mont Blanc Cricket with one last sentence.

Then, everyone shot straight into the sky and turned into black dots.

"..."

Mont Blanc Cricket was left kneeling on the ground, looking completely dazed.

It was like being enlightened.

In the air, Oboro was quite surprised by Mont Blanc Cricket's request.

Based on the original work, Mont Blanc Cricket is a very carefree person who wouldn't care about such things at all... at least when Luffy rang the Golden Bell, Mont Blanc Cricket was more relieved.

"A bounty of tens of millions... How could he even say that? Hahahaha."

"Dorans said dismissively."

Not just anyone can join the Hell Pirates. There are tens of millions of One Piece on the Grand Line, if not countless.

"Rolando? That big liar Rolando from the Lvneel Kingdom?"

Kaka muttered to himself.

The Lvneel Kingdom was located in the North Blue, and as a native of the North Blue, I had naturally heard of it.

"Um."

"Hiss... This guy is actually his descendant."

Kaka gasped.

"Is Rolando really related to the Shandia Tribe?"

"When Roland first came to Jaya Island, he saved the Shandia Tribe who were suffering from tree fever. He was their benefactor. The Shandian warriors we encountered were not only protecting their ancestral lands, but also 'fulfilling' a promise, a promise to wait for Roland's return..." Oboro recounted history. "However, although the one they finally waited for was not Roland, in a sense, it was the same as Roland's return."

"Who?"

Dom looked over.

I realized that "Long" didn't refer to himself.

Because after hundreds of years, the one who rang the bell again was Oboro.

"It's another One Piece, not me."

Long smiled.

Meanwhile, Enel listened to all of this with a blank expression.

He had no interest in the jumping insects of the Shandia.

However, he learned some information about the world of 'Blue Sea' from the tavern owner, which slightly aroused his curiosity.

"This world... Hmph."

Enel picked at his ear and glanced sideways at Oboro. "Hundreds of years ago? You seem to know quite a bit about that."

He doesn't need Oboro's power to fly.

Moreover, his flight method is particularly unique. It is as if he floats still in the air using electronic magnetic fields... without affecting his own movement at all, but the Golden Staff under his buttocks moves at an astonishing speed.

"I also know that... a few years ago you personally destroyed your hometown of Birka and led a group of men to conquer God's Island."

"..."

"Enel...this world is far more complex than you imagine. If we were to trace it back to the beginning, we could go back to five thousand years ago, when the Tree of Omniscience first sprouted and grew on Ohara Island in the West Blue," Oboro said meaningfully.

"The Tree of Knowledge?"

Enel raised an eyebrow, clearly having never heard of it before.

I don't know what it is.

The Tree of Knowledge.

West Ohara.

It was once the world's largest and oldest library.

It brought together the world's most elite scholars from all corners of the globe and from different seas...

The others didn't seem to think much of what Oboro said.

Only Rob Lucci felt a jolt in his heart.

The God Slayer... knows about Ohara? That's another 'secret' the World Government has been trying to erase.

How did the God Slayer know all this? What else does he know? "What else do you know? Tell me?"

Enel regained a serious expression and asked.
