Chapter 8 A hundred years of disappearance
"Great unification?!!"
At this moment, Gawain was really shocked.
Even underneath his seemingly surprised eyes, there was actually an unspeakable anger hidden underneath!
If Gawain is really a Celestial Dragon born and raised in the world of One Piece, Gawain may only be surprised by the dream of unification.
He may even think that this dream is somewhat grand.
But for a native traveler who was born in the spring breeze and grew up under the national flag.
The unified word "Da Yi" in Gao Wen's heart has long been bound to the great emperor of the pre-Qin Dynasty!
What's more, even with Wu Laoxing's explanation just now, it is difficult for Gawain to get rid of the disgusting image of the Tianlong people in Gawain's impression of being arrogant, treating others as slaves, claiming to be noble, but actually taking human life lightly under the pretext of status!
This made him feel uncontrollable disgust and anger towards the word "One Unity" coming out of the Tianlong people's mouths!
So he suppressed his anger and asked in a deep voice.
"You claim to be my elders, so elders, the great unity you talk about will turn the world into a mess!
Do you implement a unified national government just to bring chaos to the entire sea and make the people miserable?
And my peers who have seen ghosts, ordinary Dracos like Charros, the reason why they are so stupid and cruel is because of the unity you talk about! "
After the words fell, Gawain examined the expression of the five old stars.
He is still in the stage of youth, and showing some signs of not being good at controlling his mind can make Wulaoxing more easily let down his guard against himself.
As for whether Wulaoxing might be angry?
If they have said so much to themselves, they will still be angry because of their casual words.
Then you don’t need to judge whether the history they say is the truth or a lie!
After examining it for a moment, Gawain had an idea in his mind.
Sure enough, instead of being angry, the Five Old Stars even laughed a little longer.
After laughing, it was the diplomatic old man who was still the best at communicating with people who spoke, and he spoke softly to Gawain.
"You are absolutely right. Whether it is pirates running rampant or Charles Rose's stupidity, it is all the result of our efforts!
Don't be confused, and don't interrupt me, an old ghost. You should understand what I'm going to say next! "
The diplomatic old man showed a nostalgic look, and he spoke in a low voice, nostalgically.
“I’m afraid everything starts from eight hundred years ago when the World Government was just established.
Or maybe it’s not eight hundred years, but nine hundred years!
In the first hundred years, it was widely rumored...
disappeared for a hundred years.
After occupying Elbaf, our ancestors have been fighting for further rights in the world, fighting endlessly with more than 60 races and 280 countries in the world at that time!
Do you think there will be some extremely absurd answer to the history that O'Hara's group of scholars have been hiding?
The answer is not absurd, but it is indeed unknown to people today.
Because the missing hundred years only clearly recorded one piece of history, and that was...
The history of war between the Celestial Dragons and every race and every country in the world!
We are the enemy of them all”
While speaking, the diplomatic old man looked at Gawain and sighed.
“In those hundred years, our ancestors conquered countless countries and islands one after another.
But no matter how many victories there are, the war shows no sign of dissipating!
Do you know why? "
"have no idea."
Gawain shook his head. He was now shocked by the historical secret that had disappeared for a hundred years.
Even before the time travel, in Oda's comics, the one hundred years of disappearance was still a shocking secret!
The Five Old Stars didn't know what Gawain was thinking. Hearing Gawain's confusion, the diplomatic old man chuckled and continued to explain.
“Because of the traffic!”
After the words fell, the old man stretched his right hand towards the sky, and a densely packed and extremely huge map suddenly obscured the entire room.
Gawain suddenly understood, no wonder there was no decoration in Wulaoxing's room.
I'm afraid all their space is reserved for these maps!
Then, the diplomatic old man pointed at the map and said proudly.
“This is the untold secret of the entire ocean, and it is also a great secret treasure left to us by our ancestors. It is also the only remaining, most complete world map in the world.
Our ancestors explored the world's great waters and drew this amazing series of nautical charts.
The lifelong dream of every outstanding navigator in the world lies on this set of maps!
Without this set of maps, the only way to get to most hidden islands is to try your luck. After all, not every island will have someone with the opportunity to leave a permanent pointer.
This set of maps is more precious than a hundred years of lost history or the so-called treasure of the Pirate King!
If it weren't for you, if you didn't have the unparalleled Overlord color, if you couldn't listen to what we have to say, then you would never have the chance to become a Five Old Star in your life, let alone see this set of maps! "
As soon as the old man finished speaking, Gawain nodded immediately and quickly looked at the map.
Even if he couldn't see much, he tried his best to remember all the details he saw.
This map is not complicated. Apart from the islands and the directions of the major currents in between, Gawain sees that the world of One Piece is surrounded by two crisscrossing rings!
The horizontal annular belt is the Red Earth Continent.
As for the vertical ring, half of it is what people call the Great Line, and the other half is the New World.
Because the Grand Line and the Red Continent are arranged in a right cross, it is as if the gods took a knife and cut the watermelon horizontally and vertically.
The planet happened to be divided into four pieces!
Gawain looked at it greedily for a while. After a few cigarettes passed, the old diplomat continued.
“As you can see, the four parts of the world divided by the Red Continent and the Great Line are the four seas we often talk about: east, west, north, and south.
And except for the Red Earth Continent, the entire world is all sea and water!
In any sea area in the world, it takes at least five months to travel from the easternmost island to the westernmost island by boat!
A full one hundred and fifty days, not counting the time spent gathering soldiers and recruiting food and fodder from various islands!
In the past hundred years, even if our ancestors were invincible, they could not prevent the world from being engulfed in war.
As for the reason, it is precisely because the transportation in this sea is so inconvenient!
After solving the problem on one island, new problems arise on an island a few months away.
As the months passed, more problems arose further out on the voyage!
In this way, a full hundred years have passed, and our ancestors have deeply realized that until the transportation problem is completely solved, we really do not have the power to unify the entire sea! "
The face of the diplomatic old man was full of unwillingness, and he said seriously.
"Do you think we are proud of the fact that the world government has hundreds of member countries?
No, that is our shame, the greatest shame!
Those were countless countries in the past that constantly surrendered and rebelled, led by D who pursued free will. It was they who forced our ancestors to swallow the stupid concept of joining the country alive!
Why do we want to erect a void throne between Mary Joa's throne that no one dares to sit on openly?
Why should we announce to the world that no one will ever sit on this throne?
Why is the throne covered with swords and stained with blood promoted by us as a symbol of peace?
Why is there never a unique king in this world?
That is not the result that the ancestors wanted, but it is the condition that the ancestors must accept. Only by setting such rules will many countries be willing to lower their flags of rebellion!
Up to now, do you still think that our superiority is what we, the scum, have always been pursuing?
No one knows that we were never even truly supreme, Gawain! "
The diplomatic old man finally called Gawain's name, and his words made Gawain a little idle.
Is all this the truth about the relationship between Tianlong and all countries around the world?
Is this the secret hidden behind a hundred years of disappearance in the world of One Piece?
How unexpected!
However, everything the Five Old Stars said seemed to be taken for granted. Even if Gawain did not dare to fully believe what the Five Old Stars said, it would be difficult for him to find out the problematic points on the spot.
So after being immersed in the truth for a while, Gawain could only whisper to the diplomatic old man.
"I probably already know the truth, and I can somewhat understand the responsibility and pressure you are carrying.
But I still have questions. In addition to disappearing for a hundred years, I also want to know the reason for the proliferation of pirates and the so-called D in your mouth! "
For a diplomat, nervousness is an emotion that must be avoided.
But as a pirate fan, Gawain actually felt a little unspeakably nervous at this moment.
Facing Wulaoxing, he licked his lips and asked expectantly.
"What exactly is D's will?"
