"Since we don't need to go onto the island, let's hurry over!"
Robin spoke with a hint of urgency.
Normally, Robin took everything in stride, never seeming to be in a hurry.
But when it came to Poneglyphs, no one on this ship was more enthusiastic than she was.
"All right, let's go."
Seeing how eager Robin was, the others wasted no time. A-Tao walked straight into the wheelhouse, Ahua raised the anchor, and A-Luo lowered the sails.
The Freedom set sail again, heading for the other side of the island.
"The Poneglyphs are right there. There's no need to rush."
Sitting on the railing at the bow, Kuta turned to Robin and smiled. "We'll see plenty more Poneglyphs along the way and gradually unravel all this world's secrets."
"Mm!"
Robin nodded and gave Kuta a faint smile. "I know, but whenever I think about deciphering history, I can hardly wait."
"Ha ha!"
Kuta laughed, raised the Wine Gourd, and tipped his head back for a long drink.
Can hardly wait, huh?
That made sense. To him, this world's history was just history.
But to Robin, it was a weighty responsibility—and, of course, her dream.
Before long,
the Freedom reached the other side of Whole Cake Island.
It was exceptionally quiet here now.
Aladdin and Charlotte Praline had already taken the Charlotte Family's children away in a small boat.
So the entire
harbor lay motionless as far as the eye could see, save for the large sailing ship shrouded in the smell of blood, which bobbed steadily on the waves.
They pulled alongside the shore.
The ship came to a stop.
No one paid any attention to the treasure chests carelessly discarded on the ground.
After disembarking, everyone's eyes immediately settled on the three enormous stone blocks by the shore.
