They also knew about Shiraishi Osamu killing a Celestial Dragon in the Holy Land Mary Geoise and being wanted by the Navy and the World Government with a bounty on his head.

The murder of a Celestial Dragon in the Holy Land of Mary Geoise was unprecedented and shocked the world. What's more, the killer was the powerful Marine Admiral Osamu Shiraishi.

This incident caused a huge uproar and can be considered the most influential event in recent years since the execution of Pirate King Roger.

If Shiraishi Osamu were still a Marine Admiral and invited them to the banquet in that capacity, they would truly panic.

If the World Government or the Navy finds out what they've done, they'll immediately face the most severe and terrifying pursuit and wanted status.

Even other people on Ohara Island may be affected.

This is something they absolutely dare not even think about.

In this world, all information about the Poneglyphs and the Void Century is monopolized by the World Government, which does not allow outsiders to explore it.

The World Government has always imposed the most severe punishments on those who attempt to study the forbidden history of the "Void Century".

The World Government has never been so strict and serious in dealing with pirates, even when it comes to eradicating such people.

This lawless and troublemaking Golden Lion Shiki was only imprisoned in Impel Down after being caught by Shiraishi Osamu.

Roger, who explored forbidden history, was ordered to be executed by the Navy and the World Government.

These two contrasting attitudes reveal what the world government truly cares about.

It's not about the pirates who wreaked havoc everywhere and the suffering people, but about the lost century, the blank, unknown history.

It contains the deepest secrets hidden by the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, secrets that must not be known to others.

The world government is willing to pay any price to cover up the secret.

It wouldn't stop even if it destroyed most of the world.

Although it was a small, private banquet, the guests were only a few scholars from Ohara who had come from the Western Sea.

It still appeared extremely extravagant and luxurious, with mermaid dancers performing on it, and beautiful, melodious music characteristic of Fishman Island constantly playing.

Thanks to Shiraishi Osamu's successful reforms, Fishman Island is now quite wealthy.

Fishman Island was originally located at the junction of the Grand Line and the Red Line, and was the only way for most people to reach the Grand Line.

It was considered a major transportation route. In Bai Shixiu's previous life, such a place would have required heavy guards.

Its advantageous geographical location makes business development very convenient.

Fishman Island itself is rich in resources, and the Ryugu Kingdom was already very wealthy before.

The reason why Fishman Island did not develop well in the past was mainly because, although its geographical location was excellent, it was ultimately undeveloped.

However, their own strength was insufficient to protect themselves, and they were constantly attacked by pirates.

Chapter 0235: Patient Interpretation

Before Shiraishi Osamu came to Fishman Island, Fishman Island did not have a guardian deity.

Large numbers of pirates arrived here and wantonly captured the island's residents.

Many island residents were captured and sold into slave markets.

It wasn't until Shiraishi came and repaired it that things improved.

"Hello, were you satisfied with the dinner?"

Shiraishi Osamu walked up to Olvia and her group with a smile and raised his glass in greeting.

"Thank you for your hospitality, Lord Shiraishi. May I ask what brings you here?"

Olvia nodded, raised her glass and drank it all in one gulp, then asked with a hint of nervousness.

They didn't believe that their identities hadn't been discovered by Shiraishi Xiu at this point.

Otherwise, why would Shiraishi Osamu have specifically invited them to the banquet?

The only explanation is that dealing with this might require interpreting certain aspects of knowledge, and thus necessitates the assistance of people with expertise in archaeological research.

Fortunately, the other party is not currently a member of the Navy, so Olvia is not worried that Shiraishi Osamu is colluding with the World Government to lure them.

"You came all the way from the Western Sea to search for and explore the historical texts, didn't you?"

Shiraishi Xiu spoke slowly.

"On Fishman Island, there are some stone tablets with inscriptions recording ancient history. Unfortunately, no one on the island can understand them now. So, I hope to invite you to help me decipher them."

Shiraishi Osamu smiled and made his request.

"The Poneglyphs? There really are such things on Fishman Island. We came here because we heard some rumors about them from outside."

"If it's about that, of course there's no problem. Apart from the World Government, there's no one in the world who can surpass us in deciphering the historical texts."

Olvia said confidently, her eyes reflecting her confidence in her professional abilities.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement.

Olvia and the others had come specifically to find information about the Poneglyphs, but they lacked connections and dared not act openly.

Upon receiving Shiraishi Osamu's invitation, everyone became excited.

Despite the World Government's desperate efforts to block the Void Century, these people are still willing to risk their lives to uncover the secrets that occurred during that lost and unknown century.

These scholars had long since disregarded their own safety and even their lives.

He was just worried that he would not be able to fulfill his last wish before he died, to explore and understand what happened in the blank hundred years, and he was also afraid that his other family members would be implicated as a result.

But at this moment, with Shiraishi Osamu's invitation, these concerns no longer exist.

Everyone immediately became excited.

After the banquet, Shiraishi Xiu led the impatient crowd to the depths of Fishman Island.

That place where the historical texts are hidden.

When Olvia and the others arrived, their eyes seemed to gleam with an unusual light, and they didn't even ask Shiraishi Xiu for permission.

They couldn't wait to rush over, surround the historical text, and begin to interpret it, exchanging and discussing it among themselves from time to time.

Shiraishi Osamu wasn't in a hurry; he simply stayed quietly to the side, letting the scholars study at their own pace.

Interpreting historical texts requires a gradual approach; it cannot be rushed, or rather, rushing will not help.

The meaning of each symbol must be carefully studied.

But Olvia and the others, as expected of some of the world's most outstanding scholars in the study of Poneglyphs, quickly deciphered the information in the Poneglyphs of Fish-Man Island.

Chapter 0236: Deciphered

"This contains a legend and an event that occurred during the 'Void Century' eight hundred years ago."

"It records a legendary ancient weapon called Poseidon, whose true form is that a mermaid princess is born on Fishman Island every eight hundred years."

"This mermaid princess is the queen of all sea kings. She can summon and control the sea kings in the ocean and possesses power strong enough to destroy the world, but of course, she can also save it."

"At the same time, a guide will appear when this mermaid princess is born."

"It also records a guide to a mermaid princess from eight hundred years ago, a man named 'JOYBOY,' who also wrote an apology letter to the former mermaid princess."

Olvia slowly told Shiraishi Osamu all the information from the Fishman Island history text.

"So Shirahoshi really is Poseidon? Then according to the original timeline, Luffy is Shirahoshi's guide?"

Shiraishi Xiu murmured to himself.

The news of Poseidon, the Sea King, greatly shocked Olvia and the others, and the lost century excited them even more.

In his heart, Shiraishi Xiu already knew very well that Shirahoshi was Poseidon, the mermaid princess who was said to be born only once every eight hundred years.

This is why the previous sea kings were summoned.

"It seems that what is recorded in these historical texts is quite interesting."

Osamu Shiraishi thought to himself, "It's a pity that the World Government has been trying its best to prevent others from deciphering the Poneglyphs."

They were even punished more severely than pirates.

Therefore, there are not many people in the world who possess knowledge about the historical texts anymore.

Most of them are on Ohara Island in the Western Sea.

Shiraishi Osamu suddenly wanted the residents of Fishman Island to learn more knowledge.

As the saying goes, knowledge is power.

If, hundreds of years ago, or even earlier, the ancient people of this world were able to create an ancient weapon like Poseidon, possessing terrifying power capable of destroying the world, then...

It makes no sense that people today can't do it.

It can only be said that a lot of knowledge has been forgotten.

Osamu Shiraishi plans to revitalize the spirit of learning on Fishman Island, allowing its residents to acquire more knowledge.

The first thing to do is to go to Ohara Island and learn from the island's residents.

0. Requesting flowers.......

Ohara Island now boasts the world's largest library of scholars and books, the Tree of Knowledge Library.

It is the most suitable place to learn knowledge.

Shiraishi Osamu shared his ideas with Olvia, and received their approval.

They have always hoped that more people would join the effort to uncover the truth of history.

... 0

Unfortunately, very few people are willing to do this under pressure from the World Government.

Even if they are willing to impart their knowledge for free, few people are willing to learn.

Bai Shi's cultivation progressed rapidly, earning the approval of Olvia and others. He quickly arranged for people to travel together to Ohara Island in the West Sea.

He vividly remembered that Ohara Island was ultimately wiped off the map by the Navy using a Buster Call.

We must act quickly.

Shiraishi Shu, along with Jinbe, Hody, Arlong, and others, embarked on a journey to the West Blue.

Meanwhile, Olvia and the others were leading the way.

The West Sea is the birthplace of many famous mafia groups, and the five major mafia groups that rule the underground world are examples of those that have risen to prominence again.
