Moving House and the Ark Maxim

A few hours later.

Near the center of the island.

Xia Luo crouched in front of a man-made pit.

He reached out and touched the soil, then examined the pit. Unless something unexpected had happened, it had probably been dug out recently.

"And—"

Xia Luo stared at the middle of the pit. There was a rectangular indentation, as if something had once been there but had been dug up and taken away. Judging by its shape, it had definitely been a rectangular object.

Thinking of the historical Poneglyph Olvia had mentioned, Xia Luo slowly rose to his feet.

His brows knitted tightly. After looking around, he found several messy footprints on the ground, as well as—blood.

"Did something really happen?"

After a brief moment of surprise, Xia Luo turned his suspicions toward the World Government.

The reason was simple. He had not found any bodies on the island.

If it had been pirates, there seemed to be no need for them to take people away.

Of course, that possibility could not be completely ruled out. Some pirates liked to capture people and sell them as slaves.

But that was not the point. The point was that Lynn and the others' lives and deaths were unknown. If they were still alive, where had they been taken?

In the vast sea, Xia Luo truly had no idea where to look for them.

In the original story, Robin's father had never appeared, so it was not difficult to draw a conclusion.

Of course, as always, that bastard Oda loved stabbing people in the back. Sanji being born into the Vinsmoke Family was one thing, but the most outrageous case so far was Franky's background.

His father was actually Queen, one of the Beasts Pirates' Three Calamities, the "Plague"!

Wasn't that ridiculous?!
