Chapter 106
"Sure, after all I'm not the type with ambitions like Crocodile who wants to dominate the sea. This ultimate weapon is pretty much dispensable to me."
Hearing his words, Luo Bin couldn't help but feel a quiet sigh of relief in her heart, and a smile also appeared on her face.
She turned her head and continued looking at the second stone tablet from the mysterious deep pit in the desert.
The information on this stone tablet was rather fragmented, and some terms were Luo Bin's first encounter, leaving her reading it in a fog.
Reading through the whole thing, only a few nouns caught her attention.
"The Great Kingdom... 800 years ago... destroyed... the natural enemy of the gods..."
She turned her head to look at Luo En, telling him all the information recorded on this stone tablet.
Luo En listened, his eyes narrowing slightly.
The content recorded on this stone tablet was the same as the information revealed in the original work.
Eight hundred years ago, there indeed was a Great Kingdom on this sea that was destroyed, and the current World Government was built upon the ruins of that kingdom.
In order to rule, the people in power of the World Government erased all traces of that kingdom.
And 'the natural enemy of the gods' should refer to the clan of D.
The clan of D, does indeed have some kind of connection with that Great Kingdom...
It's just a pity that this stone tablet reveals too little information. There's no way to know how that Great Kingdom was destroyed, what connection the clan of D has with it, why the World Government wanted to erase everything about that Great Kingdom, even going so far as to create a blank hundred years in history...
Luo Bin began to decipher the third stone tablet of historical text, which came from the sky island.
What was recorded on it was the location of the three ancient weapons, the Sea King.
Regarding this, Luo En knew even more clearly than she did.
The Sea King Poseidon was the mermaid princess located at Fish-Man Island ten thousand meters beneath the sea, who possessed the ability to communicate with the Sea Kings.
In the "Blank Hundred Years History" of eight hundred years ago, there once appeared a mermaid princess bearing the title of Poseidon, and in this generation, the one who possessed and awakened this ability was the Princess of the Dragon Palace Kingdom, Bai Xing.
After finishing reading the three stone tablets recording the historical texts.
Luo En waved his hand and stored all three stone tablets into the system space.
Luo Bin, with her black hair draped over her shoulders, stood by the window of the library pinching her chin, seriously pondering the content recorded on those three stone tablets. Sunlight scattered onto her through the window, instantly revealing her solemn and unique scholarly temperament.
"Luo Bin, do you know how many of these stone tablets recording the historical texts there are in total?"
Luo En sat in an armchair and said, looking at her.
Luo Bin, who had come back to her senses from her thoughts, shook her head.
"I don't know."
Luo En held up three fingers toward her and smiled: "There are about 30 stone tablets recording the historical texts on this sea in total."
"These indestructible stone tablets are divided into two types."
"One type is the 4 Road Poneglyphs that record the location information of Raftel. The other type is the 26 historical texts that record the Blank Hundred Years History, which includes 9 historical texts that record important intelligence."
"When these 26 historical text stone tablets are pieced together, they form the article that reveals the history of that blank hundred years. All the riddles will find their answers from within."
Luo Bin's eyes widened.
And before she could ask anything, Luo En's next sentence shocked her even more.
Luo En lay back in the chair, looked at the chandelier above his head and said: "And that Pirate King, Gol·D· Roger, has probably already sent this pieced-together article to its destination, Raftel."
"!!"
99, Daily Life of Sailing, the Little Seven Who Can Speak Human Language (2/4 asking for subscriptions!)
"Are all these true?! Does that mean the true history I want to know about is also on that island?"
"Should be."
Luo Bin was deeply shaken inside.
Raftel.
The end of the Grand Line, the hiding place of the One Piece, the dream island longed for by all pirates.
On that island, could her dream also exist?!
"Regarding the historical texts, that's all I know. I hope it's useful to you."
Luo En stood up from the chair and walked past her.
"For the next period of time, I'll be staying in the gravity room. Pay attention to your surroundings, and come get me if there's any situation."
"Understood."
…………
Inside the gravity room.
Under 15 times gravity.
Wearing a weighted steel vest, Luo En was doing push-ups, sweat pouring down like rain, his blood and Qi surging like a pump within his body.
"System, open my attribute panel."
【Okay.】

After the two battles at Skypiea and Alabasta, Luo En's swordsmanship attainment advanced further, from his initial entry into the Iron-Cutting Realm to the Minor Accomplishment of the Iron-Cutting Realm — a considerable improvement.
As for the Qi and Blood value, the further one goes, the harder it becomes to raise.
Over these past three-plus months, even with two great battles thrown in, Luo En's Qi and Blood value only increased by a little over a hundred points.
Now, Luo En has to train for two days under 15x gravity just to gain a single point of Qi and Blood value.
Armament and Observation Haki also cannot be improved for the time being.
Conqueror's Haki is still a far, far cry from awakening.
In terms of progress in strength, Luo En now seems to have hit a bottleneck.
Until he breaks through this bottleneck, he can no longer enjoy the kind of large-scale power-ups he had before.
"Haa…"
Under 15x gravity, Luo En, drenched in sweat, held his entire body up on two fingers, exhaled a long breath as if to expel every last bit of air from his lungs.
He closed his eyes and felt the Haki within his body.
He pondered how to make the Haki flow as he willed.
If he could reach the third stage of Armament Haki that Lei Li spoke of — Ryuo — he might be able to shatter his current bottleneck and raise his overall strength to a whole new level.
But it was very difficult.
Especially with no one to teach him, Luo En couldn't even catch a glimpse of Ryuo's shadow.
…………
The Voyager sailed on the Grand Line for another half month.
During this half month.
Luo Bin grew familiar with life on the ship, and became more and more at ease and harmonious with Konis and Luo En.
After the Kung Fu Sea Lion Xiao Qi grew accustomed to the 10-kilogram weighted steel vest, Luo En swapped it out for a 20-kilogram one, and began to blindfold it, letting Konis control the steel balls to launch attacks at it.
On one hand, this could train its perception.
