Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

As Vegapunk spoke, he saw Robin gradually regain her composure after grasping Luffy's hand.

Robin: "I'd love to know..."

Vegapunk said, "Ohara was destroyed because of the history of the Void Century, but its will lives on."

And something that brought tears to Robin's eyes.

Saul is still alive!

Chapter 638 The Codex of Halley, The Sun God and the Earth God

The Buster Call of Ohara was an event that shocked the entire world at the time.

On that day, Ohara, the island of learning that possessed the world's most advanced knowledge, was destroyed overnight and was also labeled as an evil group of scholars who were trying to overthrow the world government.

"A few months after the incident, I traveled by boat to Ohara, which was now a desolate wasteland, where I had some old acquaintances with the late Dr. Clover."

Through Vegapunk's account, Robin learned what had happened after she escaped.

It turns out that Vegapunk also knows Dr. Clover. Clover has been trying to find the truth about the Void Century, and has been arrested and imprisoned no less than 10 times for it.

Scholars influenced by Dr. Clover also came to Ohara one after another, and Ohara became an archaeological mecca because of this doctor.

"However, a large number of documents that should have been destroyed remained intact and slumbered in the ocean."

Vegapunk remarked, "The horror lies in the fact that the scholars who did not flee voluntarily stayed behind, sacrificing their lives to protect the legacy left for the future."

The navy was only concerned with bombing people but not burning books because they didn't know the value of those books.

Ohara won this battle.

Luffy held Robin's trembling hand. He knew about Ohara and what the woman in front of him was carrying.

He was wanted by the World Government since childhood and was forced to live on the edge of the dark underworld in order to find out the truth of the world.

Back in Alabasta, I was once so desperate that I lost the will to live.

Therefore, Luffy took the initiative to become Robin's reason for living.

"If you have no reason to live, then live on as my partner, Robin!"

Robin's mind was filled with memories of the past, including Luffy and her mother's words.

"Be proud, Robin! Ohara is fighting against this world!"

Now, they are also fighting against this world.

Upon hearing that Saul was still alive, Robin smiled happily.

Now I have another reason to go to Elbaf.

Luffy stopped chuckling and said, "Robin, as the captain, I'll have to thank that old man properly later."

Robin gently touched the corner of her eye and smiled. "Oh, just because you're the captain?"

"Let's do it one at a time," Luffy said.

It seems that even the smallest connections are intertwined.

Is this considered a contraction of the world line?

Vegapunk smiled, but his gaze was drawn to Nika beside him.

Even now, he is still surprised to see this white figure reeking of alcohol.

This is something that even scientists cannot explain theoretically.

He knew that Nika was a materialized Devil Fruit.

In theory, Zoan-type Devil Fruits possess their own will, which becomes even stronger after the fruit awakens. When the will of the awakened user and the will of the fruit reach a certain degree of synchronization, the will within the fruit may manifest in some form.

Theory is theory.

Now, a living, breathing Devil Fruit will is sitting right in front of him, drunk and clutching a gourd of sake.

A...drunkard?

The legendary sun god Nika, a liberation fighter whom the oppressed people of the world prayed for for eight hundred years, actually turned out to be a white-haired raccoon dog who loved to drink.

If this were told to others, no one would believe it.

However, putting aside his unconventional appearance, Nika seems to have a great deal of knowledge about the history of eight hundred years ago and the blank century.

As a scientist, Vegapunk was always filled with intense curiosity and a desire to explore that erased history.

Otherwise, how could he be an old friend of Dr. Clover?

Often, the more world governments try to cover things up, the more people want to know the truth.

He doesn't know nearly enough.

"Actually, I have some connections with the giants,"

Vegapunk adjusted his glasses. "When I first went there, I saw the Halle Codex and a mural, and those things shocked me quite a bit."

The Halle Codex?

I feel like I've heard that name somewhere before.

"In the First World, there was fire within the earth. Man succumbed to desire and touched the forbidden sun. Slaves prayed, and the sun god descended. The earth god was enraged and, together with the serpent of karmic fire, devoured the world with death and darkness, and they could never see each other again."

It wasn't until Vegapunk began reciting some of the contents of the Scripture of Harley that Luffy truly remembered.

He hadn't just heard of the Codex Halley; he had heard the entire contents of the Codex Halley directly.

"You also know about the Codex Halley?" Vegapunk's tone was full of surprise.

He originally intended to simply state the contents of the Halle Codex and see if he could get further interpretations from Nika.

Unexpectedly, Luffy was able to recite the contents of the Halley's Codex so fluently.

This divine book is not something widely circulated; even the World Government doesn't have a complete record of it. He had to go to great lengths to see a portion of it back in Elbaf.

Luffy nodded and then recited the contents of the Halley's Codex.

"The Second World, where there is breath in nothingness."

The god of the forest sends demons, and the sun spreads the flames of war.

The person of the half-moon had a dream, and the person of the moon had a dream.

Man killed the sun and became a god, which angered the god of the sea.

They would never see each other again.

The Third World: Amidst chaos, there are blank spaces.

The turbulent afterimages remind one of that promised day.

Listening to the sound of the moon shattering, the sun god danced and laughed, leading the world to its end.

The sun will return, and a new dawn will arrive.

They will surely meet again.

Luffy said, "I've heard Totemjika mention these things."

Totemjika suddenly felt many eyes on him.

No, it's early in the morning... I didn't steal any alcohol.

"These are also part of history."

Robin was completely captivated; for an archaeologist, history was like honey.

This overlaps with the history she wants to learn.

The ancient ruins, the incomplete murals and inscriptions, and the fragments of legends scattered across different islands that one sees around the world all seem to find their corresponding place in this prophetic poem.

"Nika, come and explain yourself." Luffy pulled the tanuki, who was trying to leave, back over.

Nika pursed his lips, thinking to himself that this kid was quite good at ordering people around.

But seeing the expectant looks in Robin's and Vegapunk's eyes...

"Alright, alright, I'm just killing time anyway."

Nika stretched. "But before we talk about the Grimoire of Halle, I have to ask you a question first."

She glanced around at the three of them, her gaze finally settling on Vegapunk.

"You all know about the Boundless Land, right?"

An endless land?

Luffy nodded. "Of course I know. Two years ago, Kuma sent Merry there."

So everyone knows that.

Vegapunk, on the contrary, was somewhat surprised to hear that someone had gone there.

"Who's calling me? Who's calling me?" Below, Merry waved her hand with a smile like a silly landlord's daughter.

Vegapunk glanced over and saw the ship spirit in human form sunbathing with Shirahoshi, showing nothing particularly special about it.

It would be very difficult for humans to get there with their current level of technology.

But upon hearing that it was Kuma who sent it... if it was the power of a Devil Fruit, then it wouldn't be surprising.

So everyone continued listening.

Nika said, "In ancient times, people from the boundless lands came to Earth."

"Aliens?" Robin asked.

"You could say that."

Nika nodded. "They brought advanced civilization and technology, those skyscrapers and sophisticated machines, which built a new era of civilization on Earth."

"Those buildings later became the golden city of Shandora, and ancient ruins scattered around the world."

Robin suddenly realized.
