Chapter 286: Where this road leads
"You won't happen to know where the other three are, right? Because that would make things so much easier." Usopp asked.
"I do know about two other ones" answered Neko.
"That's great! where?" Nami requested.
"Yeah, well just go there and pick them up!, ohh man. This is easier than I thought. " Usopp became excited.
"One of them is in Whole Cale Island, under the watchful eye of the Empress Big Mom. The other one is in Wano, in possession of Emperor Kaidou." was Nekomamushi's answer.
"So…do we give up now? or do you guys want to still travel for a bit more before going home?…" Usopp glanced at Luffy.
"All we have to do is steal these stones from those guys?. That's not too bad." Said Luffy.
"Those 'two guys' are some of the most dangerous people in the world!. Even the World Government doesn't dare to provoke them without making enough preparations. " Said Franky.
"Ah… I'm getting dizzy" Nami took hold of her head.
"I'm having a relapse of my ' I cannot get one hundred miles close to a Sea Emperor' disease!" Usopp collapsed.
"Would you guys stop whining? We were going to fight them sooner or later….this is just sooner." Said Luffy.
"The Captain is right. We were already on our way to fight one of them. And I doubt that Big Momma was going to let Sanji go without a fight." Said Vivi.
"Wait but Sanji said he was coming back," Luffy reminded her.
"Yeah…about that. I'll tell you later." Promised Vivi.
"You don't need to steal the entire poneglyph, you know?." Commented the cat.
"There are easy ways to make prints with paper and charcoal, you don't have to lunge those rocks around…"
"Ohh, so we can just sneak into their bases and steal the information! We don't need to fight any of them!" Usopp exclaimed.
"No!, we aren't going to do that!" Luffy huffed.
"What are you dissatisfied with?!, do you have to fight everyone?!" Shouted Usopp.
"Of course!" Adorned.
"Well said, Luffy. That's the manly way!" Frankly nodded proudly.
"What a man!" Chopper was impressed.
"If I was you…" Neko looked at Robin.
"I would be more worried about the safety of your crewmate over there."
"Of Robin?" Said Nami.
"As I said before. Making a copy of a poneglyph is not difficult. So there are a lot of copies around the many black markets of the world. But no one has a way to translate them…except for you. When the time comes…all of the big names of the world will try to take you away."
Robin grinned. Didn't seem worried at all.
"There was a time when those words would have terrified me…but not anymore. I have the most mighty and loyal crewmates one could ask for. And I know I'm safe as long as I am with them."
"Oh…Robin. Don't you worry! As long as Usopp is here-"
Nami smacked his head.
"You are the least reliable one!"
"By the way, how come you are all so knowledgeable about Poneglyphs?" Asked Robin.
"Well, that happened when the Lord that we served, Lord Oden took interest in these stones, and that…" Neko looked at Inu
"Werent be supposed to be quiet about this?"
They both glanced at Momonosuke.
"I have no issues with you telling them."
"The truth is that the Kouzuki family who has ruled over Wano for many generations started as a family of stone masons. And even now, their technological advances remain a mystery…"
"Stone masons…" Robin seemed to have an idea of where this was going.
"Right…like 800 years ago, they started to create these indestructible books. Those books are no other than the poneglyphs ."
"The poneglyphs that everyone is chasing after we're made by a single clan?" Robin said.
"Those stones that Robin has been searching…you made those?" Luffy asked Momo.
"It wasn't me…but my ancestors the ones who made them." Answered the child.
"So you guys know what's written on them?" Luffy asked the others.
"Unfortunately no…neither the knowledge written on them nor the method to create them has been successfully passed down the generations." Said Raizou.
"Only the means to read and write them…however that too lead to misfortune.." Said Kinemon.
"Yes, unfortunately. Prior to this knowledge being passed down to Lord Momonosule…the imparting of knowledge ceased to be during his father, Lord Oden's generation." Raizou said with a downcast expression.
"Ceased to be?..that means his real father-" Brook was about to ask.
"Yes…Lord Oden was…he was executed by no other but the usurper of the Wano throne!. Emperor Kaidou himself." Kinemon spat the name of the Emperor of the seas
"Kaidou killed your dad?" Asked Luffy.
"And took his rightful place as ruler of the country."Added Nami.
"An evil pirate invaded an island, got rid of the rightful rulers, and took control of the Kingdom?... I think I heard that story before." Muttered Vivi.
"You don't have to answer if you don't want to but…what did your Lord do to get executed?. You can't tell me is not related to why are you all being targeted by that man. "Zoro said.
"Indeed, it is related. Kaidou was attempting to extract information from us. The previous Daimyo, along with the Pirate King, Gold Roger himself. Completed the journey to the final island, Raftel. Our Lord was privy to the ' secrets of that world'....and Kaidou is willing to do anything to get them, for that will lead him to become the Pirate King."
