Pirate: Nami! Give me back my Berry!

In the New World, on the Redfors, the Red Hair Pirates were silent as they listened to Ling Yan's words from the Den Den Mushi.

Ling Yan really knew about Im's existence.

However, what surprised them even more was that despite this, the Dream Expedition Team resolutely joined forces with the Navy, the Revolutionary Army and Poseidon, the Sea King, to launch an attack on Marijoa.

What does this mean?

Do they have enough confidence and strength to fight against that legendary existence?

Or, have they mastered some kind of deadly weapon that can effectively deal with... or even completely eliminate Im?

All kinds of speculations were churning in the hearts of everyone on the deck, but at this moment no one could give a definite answer.

At this moment, Shanks finally couldn't hold back his inner doubts. He interrupted the Den Den Mushi in Rayleigh's hand and said, "Mr. Ling Yan, if we are not wrong, Poseidon should be under the control of your dream expedition team now..."

Ling Yan's affirmative answer came from the other end of the phone:

"That's right!

Shanks, I didn't expect you to return from Raftel so soon.

But I can't allow you to leave the New World easily at the moment!

After all, we found another person who looks exactly like you.

I believe that with your intelligence, you should be able to understand the reason, right?" Ling Yan told the truth without reservation.

Because those super giant sea kings suddenly appeared and successfully blocked the Red Hair Pirates' progress, this matter could not be covered up anyway.

This kind of magical thing that can command sea kings, looking at the whole world, I am afraid that only the legendary ancient weapon-Poseidon, the sea king, has such a shocking ability to do it!

You know, whether it is the members of the Roger Pirates, who were once famous, or the members of the Red Hair Pirates, who have just returned from the mysterious place Raftel, it is not difficult for them to guess the key point given their understanding of this ocean and many secrets.

…

However,

What is surprising is that when Ling Yan mentioned the person who looked exactly like Shanks, the other members of the Red Hair Pirates, including Mr. Rayleigh, did not show even the slightest surprise on their faces.

This situation is too abnormal, which undoubtedly shows that they have known about this matter for a long time, and perhaps there is a major secret hidden behind it.

…

After a brief and solemn silence, Shanks’s deep and magnetic voice finally broke the suffocating silence:

“Ling Yan, I guess you may have misunderstood.

It is true that the man and I both have Celestial Dragon blood, but deep in my heart I have never really agreed with Imna’s so-called proposition.

In my opinion, only the great ideals held by Joy Boy can bring the long-awaited permanent peace to this vast ocean.

Only when the magnificent and huge kingdom he envisioned is established can the different races living in this world completely eliminate their prejudices and discriminations against each other, so that they can live in harmony and prosper together!”

Hearing Shanks’ naive words, Ling Yan’s face showed a sneer.

He replied:

"Hehe~

Shanks, if it was eight hundred years ago, Joy Boy's ideal might be like what he said, and could solve this contradiction in the sea.

Because we don't know what this sea was like eight hundred years ago.

But now eight hundred years have passed!

Shanks, how can you still be so naive and think that people eight hundred years ago and their ideas eight hundred years ago are applicable to today's sea?

Okay, I won't tell you for now. You can't leave there before we kill Im.

As for what you want to do after this incident is over, I don't care.

However, Shanks, I think I still need to give you a piece of advice, Joy Boy, maybe it's not as simple as you think.

Because, those historical texts were originally created by him.

You just learned about the history of eight hundred years ago through the historical texts.

But how do you know that the content recorded in the historical texts must be correct?

I hope you can think about it carefully during this time..."

"Click~"

After Ling Yan finished speaking, he hung up the Den Den Mushi without giving Shanks and others any chance to respond.

In the New World, all the members of the Red Hair Pirates and Rayleigh were shocked when they saw the Den Den Mushi with its eyes closed.

Because, for the contents recorded in the historical text,Roger Pirates, Red Hair Pirates, they didn't seem to doubt it!

But...

As Ling Yan said, these historical texts on the sea were created by people from Wano Country at the instruction of Joy Boy.

But who can be sure that Joy Boy's words must be the true picture of the history more than 800 years ago?

Before this moment, they had never thought about this question.

But Ling Yan's words were like a thunder, exploding in everyone's hearts, causing them to be deeply shaken for the first time in the authenticity of the historical texts that they had believed in for a long time.

Like them, of course, there was Robin.

At this moment, she was also shocked by Ling Yan's speculation.

Since the O'Hara incident that year, she has been committed to finding the blank 100 years of history.

But now, suddenly hearing Ling Yan's different point of view, the history recorded in the historical texts may be one-sided and wrong?

This made Robin a little difficult to accept for a while.

If the history recorded in the historical text is wrong, then what is the price that O'Hara paid for it?

Ling Yan seemed to have noticed Robin's strangeness, and whispered to Robin:

"Sister Robin, don't think too much, after all, this is just my guess.

Moreover, the most important thing is, does it matter whether the history recorded in the historical text is wrong?

You just want to find those historical texts, or to find the blank 100 years of history recorded in the historical texts.

As for whether the recorded history is true or false, it is now impossible to investigate, and we can't do anything about it.

Because it has been eight hundred years, it is something that cannot be changed, and it is no longer important whether it is true or false.

History has always been written by the victors, just like the Tianlong people today. Until now, aren't there still people in the sea who believe that they are the creators?

In my opinion, the most important thing about history is that it records the real time, and only time is real."

"Only time is real..." Robin muttered in a daze.

After a few seconds, she slowly came back to her senses, smiled at the mirror and said:

"I understand, thank you, Ling Yan~"
