036 O'Hara, the island of the Straw Hats and scholars
"Uncle, are you pirates?" Ten-year-old red-haired Shanks asked by the beach campfire with sparkling eyes as he pulled a bowl of delicious sea king baked eggs. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Of course, we're not just pirates but pirates." Roger said proudly.
"Have you ever been to the Great Voyage? What kind of place is it? Young Shanks looked at Roger with a look of hope, hoping to learn from Roger about the place he couldn't reach.
"I've heard from the people in the bars of town that the Great Voyage is the Devil's Sea, but I don't believe it, they're just cowards who don't even dare to go out to sea." Shanks said again.
"O great voyage, what a beautiful and magical place...... Roger just wanted to show his knowledge in front of this young man, but the next moment he found that they had just arrived at the Great Voyage, and before they really started their journey, they had come to the West Sea to find the people of the Rumba Pirates.
"Arrow, tell Shanks about it." Roger wittily kicked the ball to Arrow.
"Well, then I'll tell you about some interesting things about the Great Voyage." Arrow showed a look of remembrance, and said slowly: "The connection between the small islands of the great route is by a magnetic field, there are a total of seven roads, on one of the roads you will see a country full of deserts, and an empty island that was brought to an altitude of 10,000 meters above the ground due to a strong upwelling, and there are a group of people with wings on the empty island, and many golden treasures, and then you will reach the capital of seven waters, a magical city connected by water, which is the most developed city in shipbuilding......"
It took two hours for Eero to finish the first half of the Great Voyage.
"Wow, just listening to it makes my blood boil, amazing, great voyage." Roger sighed.
"Golden Township, the Capital of Seven Waters, the Devil's Triangle, and the Chambord Land, there are so many interesting places in this world." Reilly was also in a trance, attracted by the strangeness of the great voyage described by Arrow, and he became more and more sure that his choice to follow Luo Zhuohai was absolutely correct.
Roger and Reilly are still like this, not to mention Shanks, who has never been to the sea yet, listening to Arrow's narration, his mind seems to have crossed thousands of rivers and mountains, flew to the island at an altitude of 10,000 meters, saw the golden city of Shandora, and appreciated the prosperous shipbuilding industry in the capital of seven waters......
"I'm going to sea, absolutely going to the Great Voyage." Young Shanks said with a determined look.
"Haha, boy, yes, ambitious, I'm optimistic about you." Roger laughed and patted Shanks on the shoulder.
"Can I join your pirate group and become a pirate?" Shanks looked at Roger expectantly.
In this regard, Roger shook his head firmly and said: "Not yet, you are too young, when you grow up, if you still want to sail with us, I will come to pick you up." ā
"That's right." Shanks looked disappointed and slightly deflated.
Seeing this, Arrow leaned closer, put his arm around Shanks' shoulders and said, "Shanks, don't be discouraged, you will definitely become a famous pirate in the future, I promise." ā
"Really? Elogo. Shanks seemed to rekindle hope.
"Really." Arrow nodded affirmatively and rubbed Shanks' red hair, he knew the weight of the name of red-haired Shanks in the new world in the future.
Three days later, with the help of various materials collected by Shanks from the town, Reilly had roughly completed the repair of the Roely, and the broken mast had been re-secured, and it was time to leave.
"Uncle Roger, Uncle Reilly, and Brother Arrow, I will definitely work hard and become stronger, five years, five years at most, I will embark on a great voyage to pursue you, and I must be one of you when the time comes." Young Shanks clenched his fists and declared loudly.
"Hmph" Roger approached Shanks, looked at the young man in front of him who was only up to his waist, he liked it tightly for some reason, and involuntarily took off the red and yellow straw hat on his head and buckled it on Shanks's head and said: "Listen, this straw hat is my important thing, now I entrust it to you, as a witness to the agreement between us, we must protect it." ā
"yes, definitely." Shanks nodded heavily, pulling down the brim of his straw hat a few points to cover his teary eyes.
"Goodbye, little Shanks." Reilly smiled and waved goodbye.
"Shanks, you must hurry up and become stronger, and then venture with us on this sea." Arrow waved his hand in encouragement.
"Of course, I will definitely try to become stronger and stronger than Brother Airo." Shanks said ambitiously, watching the three of them slowly move away, and a touch of perseverance appeared on their immature little faces.

It's been three days since they left Shanks' hometown, and according to the charts they got in Shanks's hometown, they wanted to find out about the rumba pirates in a nearby town twenty years ago, but a sudden storm caused their budget to fail.
After the storm, they lost their way again, not knowing where they were being taken by the storm that had lasted all night. Finally, at a certain moment, a touch of green suddenly appeared in the blue sky in the distance, and as the distance got closer, the three of them found that the green was not the color of the sky, but a plant, a huge tree covering most of the island.
At the sight of the huge covered tree, Arrow realized what it was.
The big tree that covers almost half of the small island is the omniscient tree that is more than 5,000 years old and has witnessed the vicissitudes of 5,000 years of history, and that small island is the famous archaeological holy place in the West Sea, the island of scholars - O'Hara.
At the same time, on a small island in the windless belt, a naval warship was slowly approaching, and a brigadier general wearing a red suit and a navy robe stood on the bow of the ship with his hands crossed, and finally, the warship landed.
"Yo, Sakasky, you're here." Polusalino said with a relaxed expression.
"Polusalino, you're really embarrassed, there are only so many people left." Sakasky shook his head and said.
Polusalino waved his hand and said, "No way, that kind of situation, do you know, the Sea King riot, it's really spectacular, it's a pity that you didn't see it." ā
Sakasky: "Hmph, you'd better wait until you go back to the headquarters and explain it to the marshal." ā
"You're as cold as ever, it's scary." Polusalino shrugged indifferently, and an elementalized Akainu returned to the warship, found a chair, and sat peacefully and comfortably with squinted eyes.
