Chapter 152 The World Roger Knows
Jinan's brows were furrowed.
After carefully weighing all this in his mind, he finally nodded and agreed.
In his opinion, Lu Jiu has always been just an ordinary person, and she has never been involved in the turmoil that Roger created on the vast ocean.
Therefore, taking her away would not bring too much psychological burden to him.
Furthermore, the secrets that Roger promised to tell were so tempting that they were enough to make him put aside many of his concerns.
However, when his eyes fell on Lu Jiu, he saw the confusion and determination in her eyes.
It is clear that despite facing unknown dangers, Lu Jiu has no intention of leaving Roger.
This seemingly simple decision contains surging emotions and complex human hearts.
Jin An had long known that the completion of this task was not something he could decide alone.
He turned quietly and motioned to Roger.
This difficult task needs to be done by Roger.
There must be a reason why Roger made this request, and only he can convince Lu Jiu to leave.
Only then can she understand that all this is to protect her.
Roger took over Jinan's gaze.
He knew very well how firm Lu Jiu's determination was.
He faced Lu Jiu, his eyes filled with unspoken pain and determination.
Roger's gaze slowly fell on Lu Jiu, his eyes were soft and deep.
If none of these methods work, the only option is to knock Lu Jiu out and let Jin An take her away.
"You know."
He spoke softly, "I have the ability to hear the voices of all things."
He paused, then he continued: "I can hear a little life being born in your belly."
The words were like a feather floating in the breeze, soft and startling.
Roger's speech slowed down, "I hope you can live well."
"Even for our future."
As he made contact with that gentle gaze, he said a silent apology to Lu Jiu in his heart.
He knew that these words were a lie, and given his current physical condition, he could no longer do such a thing.
But Roger faced a difficult decision.
In order to ensure the safety of the person he loves, he must resort to this last resort - a white lie.
Lu Jiu's reaction was what he was most worried about, but for a man under tremendous pressure, this was the last and most gentle lie.
Lu Jiu's eyes were full of shock and disbelief. Her hand unconsciously covered her lips, and the other hand gently, almost tentatively stroked her flat belly.
Her feet seemed to be guiding her back to the room as if she were sleepwalking, with an indescribable turmoil in her heart.
The solitude of the room provided the quiet she desperately needed at the moment, helping her thoughts sort out clear clues from the chaos.
Roger watched Lu Jiu's back until her figure disappeared behind the door of the room.
At this moment, he slowly withdrew his gaze, exhaled a long breath, and turned to face Jin An.
"Then it's time for me to fulfill my promise."
Roger looked directly into Jin An's eyes and said word by word: "I will tell you what I know."
After this heavyweight premise, he added, with a hint of heaviness in his voice:
"But some of this news may have a negative impact on you as a naval officer."
Jin An nodded silently, accepting this heavy notice.
He knew that what Roger was about to reveal was not only a secret about the world, but could also be a turning point in his own destiny.
In the thick night, Roger's voice came slowly.
"We all know that there is a blank 100 years in this world."
"In the blank 100 years, there existed a huge kingdom."
This sentence is like a key, slowly opening the dusty door of history.
His gaze seemed to penetrate the boundaries of time and space, watching the passing glory.
Jin An nodded. He knew everything Roger said.
Roger continued, "The historical texts that exist in this world now,"
"It's all about that huge kingdom and that blank 100 years of history."
"The ancestors of today's Kozuki clan were responsible for carving these historical texts."
This sentence seems to closely connect the fate of an entire clan with those lost years, and at this moment they come together to form a magnificent picture.
Jin An was deeply shocked by Roger's sudden words.
Are those guys from the Kozuki family capable of carving stones that even the world government cannot destroy?
"By linking together all the historical texts that exist in this world, we can get the true historical text."
"We brought all those words to the final island."
"Historical texts also have different functions, and the most important of them is the red historical text."
Roger's words colored the texts, making them seem more important and mysterious.
After hearing this information, Jin An simply nodded, his expression calm as water. This information was not unfamiliar to him.
Roger observed Jinan's reaction and was a little surprised.
A navy should not be able to access these secrets that are strictly controlled by the world government.
But Jinan seemed not surprised by this information.
There was no surprise or doubt in Jin An's expression, only a calmness that he could not understand.
Roger's eyes scanned Jin'an's face, as if looking for some sign of confirmation.
"It seems that you have understood everything I said."
He smiled slightly, with a little curiosity.
"Then let me continue. These are just appetizers."
His eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he could see into Jin An's heart and pierce through the mist of history:
"Do you know when the first pirate appeared in this world?"
This question seemed to touch Jinan and awaken his desire for the unknown.
A gleam of light flashed in Jin An's eyes, and he was refreshed. He tentatively answered, his voice full of excitement:
"Could it be during these blank hundred years?"
Seeing Jin An's reaction, Roger couldn't help but nod slightly, which was an acknowledgement of Jin An's intuition.
"Yes, the first pirate is Joy Boy from the Giant Kingdom."
When Jin An heard this answer, a flame seemed to be ignited in his heart, and the light in his eyes became even hotter.
"So this is the origin of pirates..."
"In that case, the world government has played an indispensable role in the development of the world into what it is today."
Roger looked at Jin An in surprise, "It seems that you don't have a good impression of the World Government either, then..."
"Why are you still in the Navy?"
Jinan looked at the night outside the window.
'Even though it's already so dark, there's still moonlight shining on the ground.'
Roger was stunned, then burst into laughter.
"That's right!"
"It's a pity... there are still too few people like you in this world."
"But this world will eventually sink into the sea."
"Only by reaching the red earth continent that is isolated from the sea can we have a glimmer of hope for survival."
