I, a Celestial Dragon!

When Gawain returned to the vicinity of the Xuanniao, he was surprised to find that the members of the Black Ice Platform who were guarding the ship were working with Jinbei to pin down a man with chestnuts on his head and the gorilla that they had just caught this afternoon.
In addition to the two of them, there was also an ape captured this time...
Noticing Gawain's return, Jinbei smiled and raised his fist.
“Haha, sir, even though I was taking care of two children at home, I was able to catch a group of bad guys.
Just now, they circled our ship and spied on it for a long time!"
"I don't!!!"
As soon as Jinbei finished speaking, Kulikate yelled and explained to Gawain.
“Gao Wensheng, I have seen your photo and I know who you are. How dare I have any bad thoughts about you!
I was just attracted by the flyers you gave to the orangutans!
Because... because I am the descendant of Rolando, my full name is Mont Blanc Kulikate, and like my ancestor Rolando, I carry the surname Mont Blanc, sir!"
After saying that, Kulikate slammed his head heavily on the ground.
Next to Kulikate, Shirahoshi and Uta couldn't help but explain for Kulikate.
"Yes, sir, this uncle is very interesting. He told us many stories about the North Sea.
They have a huge snail over there, carrying an entire fortress and wandering on the sea!"
“Shirahoshi is right, the uncle also told us the complete story of Rolando, and by combining different stories, I think I already have inspiration for a new song!
He is truly a man who has been misunderstood by the whole world for hundreds of years!"
Uta said something in cooperation, and then she gently tugged at the sleeve of the Black Ice Platform member who was controlling Kulikate.
"So let them go. There are so many of us here. It's impossible for the three of them to do anything!"
"Uta is right, haha, let them go."
Gawain waved his hand gently, and the members of the Black Ice Platform let go of Kulikate and retreated into the distance.
Although he was free, Kulikate did not stand up. Even when the apes and gorillas beside him wanted to get up, he pulled them back.
Kneeling on the ground, Kulikate took out the two leaflets from his trouser pocket and spoke to Gawain in a very serious tone.
"Gao Wensheng, I don't care about my own safety, I just want to know if what you said in the flyer is true!
Do you really think my ancestor was not bragging? Do you really think he was a real great adventurer?
Also, have you found any trace of the Golden Bell?"
On the side, listening to Kulikate's question, Gawain nodded slightly.
As they sat down, Gawain said to Kulikate.
“You have a lot of questions, why don’t you stand up and ask me one by one.
I wasn't in a good mood today, but seeing you guys makes me feel much better.
In that case, I'll give you some time for your questions, man."
Having said this, Gawain raised his left hand.
"Kaku!"
"I'm here, my lord!"
Kaku stepped out solemnly, and Gawain gave a soft order.
"Let's camp on the beach tonight and get ready."
"As ordered."
Kaku nodded, then left to get ready.
After Kaku left, Gawain looked at Kulikate who was slowly getting up and said.
"The flyer I gave you is not a joke. I have evidence that the Golden Bell really exists. The Golden City of Shandora does exist. Rolando did not deceive the world back then, and he certainly did not deceive his king."
“Really…really!!!”
Turbid tears flowed from Kulikate's eyes.
"Have you found the golden bell?"
“Don’t be so anxious, if I had found the golden bell, I would have brought it here long ago.
However, the old people on our ship have already seen the golden bell!"
Gao Wen smiled and pointed at old man Rayleigh who was drinking and said.
Noticing Gawain's actions, Kulikate looked at Rayleigh with surprise.
“You are…you are the legendary Pluto Rayleigh, the vice-captain of the Pirate King!
Did you ever go to Sky Island with that Pirate King?"
"Oh, haha, it seems you also know about the existence of Sky Island, kid!"
Rayleigh smiled and waved at Kulikate, and his words made Kulikate jump up excitedly.
"Sky Island, ahahaha, you really did mention the existence of Sky Island, my judgment was not wrong, haha!
Sure enough, the facts are different from what my ancestors thought. The lost golden city of Shandora did not sink to the bottom of the sea due to crustal movement as my ancestors judged, but was washed into the sky by the rising ocean currents!"
At this point, Kulikate excitedly took out Rolando's diary hidden behind his waist. He opened the diary and pointed to a painting in it to Gawain and his group.
“This is the topographic map of Gaya Island that our ancestors left behind. You can see that the overall appearance of Gaya Island should be in the shape of a giant skull!
But now, Gaya Island's head has disappeared, leaving only the skull's mouth remaining in the sea!
The story of Rolando, the liar, has been circulating in the North Sea and the world for four hundred years. If it weren't for the discovery of this diary, even I might not be willing to believe in my ancestors.
But after finding this diary, I discovered that the lower half of the map of Gaya Island drawn by my ancestors was no different from the current Gaya Island!
At the same time, our ancestors’ diaries also record countless advanced navigation techniques that can still be used today!
In my opinion, our ancestors, with their excellent navigational knowledge and mapping skills, would have been welcomed by every team and become one of the best navigators of that era, even if they were not bragging.
So why did he fabricate his story with one unwavering lie after another?"
At this point, Kulikate cried while holding Rolando's diary. The action he had persisted in for countless years finally brought him real evidence!
Listening to Kulikate's crying, Gawain clapped his hands gently.
"Man, I understand how you feel, but you'd better control yourself.
You look... almost fifty, why are you crying like this?"
“Waaaaah, I just feel sad and happy, sir!
I have been salvaging shipwrecks here for seven years, seven years!
I get laughed at by those guys from the Mocking Town every day!
I have to face their harassment at every turn. Even though I never actively attack others, I have earned a bounty of 25 million just by defending against their attacks!
It’s so hard for me!!!”
As he explained, Kulikate wiped away his tears with difficulty, then he came to Gawain with the diary in his hand.
After handing the diary to Gawain, Kulikate stood there and continued to speak to everyone.
"I found this diary of my ancestor nine years ago. Since then, I have read it countless times. Although it records many stories, what I care about most is always the lost Golden City!
Because the reputation of my ancestor throughout his life was completely ruined by this golden country!"
At this point, Kulikate shook his head sadly.
“I don’t know if you have heard the story of the original Liar Rolando.
The story goes that my grandfather liked to brag since he was a child, and through deception, he became the governor of the expedition team of the Kingdom of Lubnir in the North Sea.
After that, in order to consolidate his position in front of the king, Jiazu made up the legend of the Golden Country, but when he brought the king and soldiers to Gaya Island, the king saw only a forest.
Just like that, my ancestor was executed by the king, but in this diary...!"
Just as Kulikate said this, Gawain, who had just flipped through the book, took over Kulikate's words.
Gao Wen was seen flipping through a book while talking.
“However, in this diary, Rolando is the first legendary adventurer who set out from the four seas four hundred years ago, traveled all the way back and forth on the Grand Line, and even entered the New World!
Not only that, he is also an excellent warrior, an excellent navigator and a botanist!"
At this point, Gawain turned to the section about Lilliput in his diary and shared it with everyone.
When the diary reached Gion's hands, Gao Wen smiled.
"The kingdom of dwarves mentioned in Rolando's diary should be near Dressrosa, right?
So, four hundred years ago, Rolando was indeed the first seafarer to cross the Grand Line.
Logically speaking, he should be the glory of the North Sea."
"That's it!"
Kulikate said to Gawain excitedly.
“Four hundred years ago, our shipbuilding industry was not as developed as it is today, and newspapers had not yet appeared.
At that time, most people in the world could only rely on books and word of mouth from sailors to understand the world.
But now, with the existence of the World Economic News and the introduction of a series of Den Den Mushi.
Whether it is the New World or the Grand Line, a lot of information has been coming out from every corner!
Two years ago, I heard from the newspaper that some changes had taken place in Dressrosa. In the photo of that day's newspaper, I saw the figures of two dwarfs.
As more and more information becomes available for comparison, I believe more and more in the stories told by my ancestor. There are so many stories of his that can be reconciled with today, four hundred years later!"
Just as Kulikate said this, Gion on the side suddenly frowned and turned to the last page of her diary.
"Rolando's experience is indeed true, but... if you say he is a pure adventurer, I disagree!
He's not a real hero, he doesn't deserve to be one!"
As he spoke, Gion showed everyone the part recorded in Rolando's diary, where Rolando led King Lubnir and the soldiers to land on Gaya Island!
Then, Gion continued.
"Look carefully, everyone. Rolando's diary contains detailed records of his exchanges with the natives of Gaya Island.
Here, he first cured the tree fever plague on Gaya Island, and then he became friends with Kalgar, the strongest warrior of the indigenous people of Gaya Island.
Afterwards, he saved the life of Gaya Island who was about to be used for sacrifice, and made Gaya Island cancel the tradition of living sacrifice.
But not long after, he was misunderstood by the Gaya islanders and driven out of Gaya Island because he cut down the sacred tree contaminated by plague.
It was at this time that the great warrior Kargra made an agreement with Rolando that the golden bell would ring constantly over the sea, all so that Rolando would not get lost if he had the chance to pass by Gaya Island in the future! "
At this point, Gion snorted in dissatisfaction.
"Humph, I admire his friendship with Kargra, which he wrote in his diary, but I also feel a little disgusted!
If he really regarded Gaya Island and Kalgara as friends, then why would he return to Gaya Island with the king and the soldiers of the Kingdom of Lubnir?
Doesn’t he know that such behavior will cause harm to the indigenous people of Gaya Island?
Didn't he know that what the king wanted was gold, not confirmation of whether his story was true or not?
If I were Rolando, I would rather be misunderstood by the whole world than reveal to the world the news that Gaya Island has a huge amount of gold!
Because once this news is leaked, Gaya Island will lose its peace, and his friends will become the target and prey of countless greedy people on the sea! "
Having said that, Gion looked at Kulikate coldly, and then she continued.
“Perhaps, your ancestor Rolando was indeed a great navigator and adventurer, but he was definitely not a good friend!
For the sake of vanity and to prove his greatness in front of others, he did not care about the safety of the indigenous people of Gaya Island at all!
Just for this reason, I won't admire him, huh! "
Facing Gion's accusation, Jinbe on the side also nodded heavily.
“Yeah, I really hadn’t thought of that until Gion mentioned it.
But now, I always feel that this story is weird...
It was no big deal that he told the story of his voyage, after all, what he said was the truth, not a lie he made up.
