In addition, Luffy's Mind Power, whether innate or acquired through some unknown means, also enabled him to hear the sounds of all things.
As for why he couldn't sense the special aura of the Poneglyph like Roger, it's probably because some conditions weren't met yet, or his abilities weren't strong enough. Once the conditions are met, he too can find the Poneglyph scattered all over the world, and then, with Robin's translation, convey the events of the Void Century to the world.
Standing before the Poneglyph, Vic stroked the words carved on the stone. Although he had already memorized the contents, he did not know what they were about.
He hasn't even started learning this script from Olvia yet, but now that he knows he can Voice of All Things, he feels as if the heavens are deliberately leading him to find the Poneglyph.
Having been given the ability to translate the Olvia Poneglyph the power to Voice of All Things, he's now receiving the same treatment as the previous Pirate King Roger, and the next Pirate King Luffy. Is fate decree that he too should compete for the title of Pirate King? What about Luffy?
Thinking of this, Vic shook his head. Becoming the Pirate King was out of the question; that was a responsibility that the Sun God Nika needed to bear, and he wasn't interested in it. However, he was quite interested in the Void Century of history.
Having the ability to Voice of All Things allows one to find more Poneglyph. Furthermore, this ability enables one to more clearly perceive the emotions of living Voice of All Things and to convey one's own emotions and thoughts to them. It's quite useful for raising pigs and cattle, but it doesn't have much use for anything else.
"It seems that learning Ancient Script from Olvia needs to be put on the agenda. The truths buried in history will gradually surface, and life in the future will become more and more exciting!"
After leaving those words, Vic departed from the cave. Once he was completely out of sight, the old monster sitting cross-legged on the other side twitched its eyelids a few times, but ultimately did not open them.
When Vic arrived at the hot springs, he found that Rebecca had not gone to soak in the hot springs, but was standing in the lobby of the hot spring hotel waiting for him, and next to her was a man wearing a straw hat and with two knives at his waist.
Vic had never seen this man before and didn't know what Rebecca meant, so he looked at Rebecca with a questioning gaze.
"This is Kanbo! He used to be a bounty hunter, but he was defeated by a pirate and forced to join that pirate crew—the same pirate crew we encountered when we came to this island last time."
He was my opponent at the time, but after defeating him, I didn't have him captured. He had already left by the time you arrived, which is why you didn't see him.
I met him on my way here. He approached me and said he wanted to join our pirate crew. I think he's a decent guy, and his strength is alright, which meets our standards. Now it's up to you, the captain, to decide."
It turned out that the person standing next to Rebecca was the Two-Sword Style swordsman who had fought her once before. That was two years ago, when they were training under Zephyr's guidance and searching for real battles with pirates on this island.
If Rebecca hadn't had the aid of Observation Haki, and hadn't been able to mimic her opponent's instincts in battle, plus the solid foundation that Vic had laid for her, she might not have been able to defeat Kanbo.
Two years ago, Kanbo already knew how to Flying Slash, while Rebecca didn't even know Flying Slash yet. Moreover, Kanbo had an extremely strong sense of danger, and he always managed to narrowly dodge Rebecca's attacks.
After seeing Rebecca use the Six Powers of Shave a few times, he learned it on the spot. It can be said that his talent and strength are no less than Rebecca's. It's just that he went through a lot of hard work and detours on his own.
But he also learned a lot and became much stronger through hard work and perseverance. If Kanbo had a good teacher to guide him, his achievements would definitely be greater than Rebecca's.
Rebecca actually received a lot of preferential treatment from Vic; otherwise, she would at most be at the level of Tashigi two years later in the original story, perhaps only slightly stronger than Tashigi in swordsmanship and actual combat.
However, Tashigi had already Awakening dual-color Haki at that time, while Rebecca's Armament Haki was Awakening by Vic cheating. However, Tashigi was a few years older than Rebecca is now, so overall they were about the same age.
But with the Float-Float Fruit given to her by Vic, the help to Awakening Haki earlier, and the method to enhance Haki faster, Rebecca can no longer be viewed with the same perspective.
Although Kanbo had improved his swordsmanship and Awakening his Observation Haki, and had also strengthened his physical training over the past two years, he was still far behind Rebecca at this point. This was due to the difference in their environments and resources.
"You must have seen the news. Do you know our situation now? Just a few days ago, we were surrounded by the Navy, a lineup of a future Marine Admiral and several Headquarters Vice Admiral. We barely escaped."
Because we killed Celestial Dragons, powerful figures from the World Government will be hunting us down. Our situation is extremely difficult, and we are in constant danger of death. Are you still willing to join us?
After listening to Rebecca's explanation, Vic turned to Kanbo and glared at Rebecca as she spoke, knowing Rebecca wanted to correct Rebecca on his claim of narrowly escaping.
They did indeed leave calmly after their complete victory, but he had his reasons for saying that. Rebecca, being naive, only wanted to show off their strength, while Vic was looking for a partner who could share not only wealth but also hardship.
Those who refuse to join due to the constant threat of death are likely to be betrayed in the event of a major crisis, just like Blackbeard who joined the Whitebeard Pirates with ulterior motives. Therefore, as the captain, Vic must carefully select his crew.
"I could guess, but I've already made up my mind. I left this island after my defeat to Rebecca last time, but I've been keeping an eye on your news."
I'm really envious after reading your news; you've gotten stronger so fast! First you trained with former Marine Admiral Zephyr, and then you trained with Marine Garp the Hero...
You've always been surrounded by such powerful individuals who can solve any problems you encounter in your cultivation and guide you in your future cultivation path.
And all this time, I've only Awakening Observation Haki. Before Awakening, I didn't even know this power existed. My training has been completely isolated. Seeing how quickly you all have grown, I'm incredibly envious. If only I had a strong mentor like that to guide me...
So when I saw the news that you had defected from the Navy, I knew my chance had come. If I joined you and became associating with strong people like you, I could also become stronger quickly!
What does danger matter! What does death matter! So after seeing you return to the Grand Line, I came here to wait for you. Please let me join you!
