Bab 26: Chapter 26 _ To witness the truth of the world
At dusk, Roger's group arrived at Arabasta one after another, and the rebel army and the king's army made peace. In the morning, they cleaned the bodies of their comrades and cleaned the king's palace.
Although such a big thing has happened in the country, the courtesy is still indispensable. In the evening, the king hosted a banquet in the palace to entertain Roger and his group.
At this time, it was raining heavily in Arabasta. As if to wash away all the sins that happened here.
" Speaking of which, King, what are the secrets you are hiding in Alabasta, and why is it being coveted by the World Government? " At the banquet, Ajin asked carelessly.
" Ajin! " Bit called Ajin. How can such a question be asked casually?
" It's okay, the guests saved Alabasta, it doesn't matter if you know that. " Cobra read it very openly, and they couldn't understand it anyway.
" Our country inherits a stone tablet that records things related to the blank hundred years. The world government wants to take that stone tablet. If you want to see it, I can show you. "
Isn't it a matter of course to satisfy a little request from the hero who saved this country?
" That's great! " said Ajin happily.
After eating and drinking, Cobra took Roger and his group to visit the historical text stone tablet located in their royal tomb.
Bit carefully studied the stone tablet in front of him, and as expected, he couldn't understand it at all.
" Since the World Government can send an espionage agency to your country for ten years for this stele, how could he give up? " Bit shook his head, thinking about other issues for Cobra.
Cobra frowned, thinking about it too. " According to Bildas, the world government is actually not sure if we have such a thing in Alabasta, so they sent them here. "
" It's rude, but can I put something on it? " Roger asked suddenly, turning his head to look at Cobra.
Cobra was stunned for a moment, he actually didn't want to agree, but they did owe Roger's favor.
" Ah, if Mr. Roger wants to engrave this kind of writing, of course. And what does Mr. Roger yearn to engrave on it? "
" This stele is fake. " Roger said with certainty. " I'm going to engrave it and tell people in the future who might see this stele and know some ancient scripts, lest they be deceived by the world government. "
After listening to Roger's words, Cobra was stunned. They Arabasta paid such a heavy price for a fake stone tablet!
" Since this is fake, why does the world government still send someone to attack him! They can all find out that we have a stone tablet, but can't they find out that the stone tablet is fake! "
Cobra gritted his teeth. Originally, it was tricky enough for the world government to covet the treasures passed down by their royal family from generation to generation, but this is still a fake!
" The stone tablet that your country has at the beginning must be the real one. There is no problem with that. So, where is the real stone tablet now? " Bit said while looking at the stone tablet.
"The real stone tablet must have been in the hands of the World Government. It is unknown when it was obtained. " He answered his own question.
" As for why, it's natural to bring other people who accidentally learned about this matter to you Alabasta. " Bit said as he turned around and walked out.
" Don't worry, even if this stele is real, we won't be interested in your Alabasta's secrets. " Bit had walked out of the mausoleum before speaking.
At this point Roger had written what he was going to write on the stele, and went out over Cobra. His words reached Cobra's ears. " Don't worry, Mr. King, we are real pirates! "
Cobra was obviously a little confused. What is a real pirate? Don't pirates just burn, kill and loot?
" Real pirates go out to sea for their dreams, not for anything else. " Rayleigh explained briefly and followed Roger's footsteps out of the mausoleum. It is not appropriate to always stay in someone's ancestral grave.
Everyone left the mausoleum one after another and returned to the palace. Cobra was the last to leave. There was a thorn in his heart. When was the stone tablet of their family replaced?
After an afternoon of corrections, Roger and his party basically recovered. With Nusi around, post-war grooming is much easier. Although the companions who arrived in the evening had a short rest for an afternoon, they were still recovering well.
The night was dark, and Bit was habitually unable to sleep. Even after a tough battle during the day, he couldn't sleep. He looked around at his comrades who were sleeping soundly, and quietly walked out of the house.
At the top of the palace, where Carpenter looks up at the stars. Bit, who had just carried a barrel of wine from the kitchen, also came here.
" Go find a glass yourself if you want to drink. " Bit sat down beside Carpenter, poured himself a glass with a barrel, and drank it down.
" Thank you, I don't want to drink for now. " Carpenter rejected Bit's kindness. " Why do you want to be a pirate? "
Bit filled himself with a glass of wine again. " I go out to sea to become the world's greatest swordsman. As for why I am a pirate, of course I am free. There are too many rules in being a navy. "
Capone nodded. He once believed that the world government and the navy were synonymous with justice. But what the World Government did this time completely overturned his previous concept.
" What do you mean by the world government? Shouldn't they be the makers of the world's rules and the guardians of the allied countries? "
Bit drank the wine one sip after another, and one sip was a glass of wine. Carpenter didn't say anything, he was quietly waiting for Bit's answer.
" What the hell is the world government! Is the navy real justice or hypocritical justice! Why are the real pirates fighting! What is the truth of the world! " Bit asked in a series of questions.
" It's up to you to find the answers yourself. No one can tell you the truth. Everyone gives you his answers. Everyone has his own position! The country of sand cannot be saved by scientific research! "
Carpenter nodded thoughtfully. " Then can I go to sea with you? I will use my eyes to witness the truth of this world! "
" Tell the captain tomorrow, and he'll agree. You're welcome in advance, new buddy. " Beat threw the glass in his hand to Carpenter, not spilling a drop of the wine in it.
He picked up the wine barrel and touched Carpenter lightly, they smiled at each other, and drank the wine in their hands.
" It's getting late, you haven't gone to bed yet? " Bit asked.
" Don't sleep, take advantage of me tonight to sort out the method of preparing fresh water, thanks to you, Bit. "
Bit shook his head and said it was okay. " I'll go drink another barrel of wine, you can do whatever you want. "
