Chapter 64: Nicole Olvia
Rockwell was stunned by Asa's words, his eyes glazed over.
He seems to be very old, but in fact he is a young man's face, and now he is only about twenty-two years old, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.
With a passion and a longing for pirates, he entered the great voyage, but he did not expect to be doused by Asa with a basin of cold water.
Asa felt no guilt in his heart, because if he could make Rockwell turn back, it would indirectly save his life, and if this could make him understand the importance of strength, maybe he could really meet in the new world in the future.
The focus of Rockwell's pupils gradually retracted, as if there was a metamorphosis in him in an instant.
"I see, Lord Asa, I will definitely work hard to improve my strength and find you when I enter the new world in the future!" He was steadfast in his word.
"Good!" Asa patted him on the shoulder and said in satisfaction, "You just said you caught a group of O'Hara's scholars?" What's going on? ”
"Lord Asa, the scholars of O'Hara are the most valuable of all slaves, and like the fishmen, they can be sold for a high price."
Speaking of slaves, Rockwell's eyes lit up and his tone was delighted.
O'Hara is a special island in the West Sea, with a strong learning style, and most of the people on the island have good knowledge, making it the most suitable slave to be a steward's servant.
Normally, no one on the island dared to arrest them, but once they left the island, they faced the danger of being captured by slave traders.
Rockwell was the heir to a family of traffickers on the underground black market in a certain sea area before he went out to sea, but not long after entering the Great Voyage and selecting the track, he met a team of scholars from O'Hara.
So three days ago, he led his men to secretly arrest people, and wanted to take them to the Chambord Islands to sell and earn Bailey.
Asa doesn't care if Rockwell is a slave trader or not, if the pirates want to have economic resources on the sea, they must be involved in some incidents related to the underworld, otherwise they won't even be able to eat, they won't be able to eat, who cares if you burn and loot?
Unless you have some treasure map that you can dig up some of the treasures that have been left behind.
Not all pirates are like those pirates in the New World, with territory occupation, protection fees, and other sources of money.
This is the first half of the Great Voyage, and the navy has a stronger control over this place than the four seas, and it must be secretly done when it comes to illegal events.
"O'Hara?" Asa touched his chin, this group of archaeologists who studied history and studied stupidly, Asa really felt that they were representatives of the dead world.
There is nothing wrong with studying history, but the fault is that the world government does not give you research, but you violate the rules and forcibly touch their bottom line? Isn't it self-defeating?
If you don't have enough strength on your own, you will do something beyond your own strength, and you will be a dead end, and you will also affect the whole of O'Hara.
Seeing Asa fall into deep thought, Rockwell couldn't help but gasp in his heart, "I heard that Lord Asa is also from the West Sea, so he won't be angry with me because of this matter, right?" ”
Thinking of this, he became even more uneasy, secretly wondering why he wanted to arrest people.
"Bring those slaves up to show me?" Asa said with interest, he had a few questions in mind for the group of archaeologists.
Hearing that Asa was not blaming himself, Rockwell suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly shouted to the stunned pirates on the side: "What are you doing in a daze, go and bring the archaeologists from O'Hara......"
"Yes, Boss!"
The pirates agreed with a bang.
In a short time, about five people were escorted, four of them were old men with white beards, and one was a beautiful woman with silver-white hair and a leather coat.
The five people were obviously caught by the pirates, but there was no panic in their expressions, they were calm and calm, although their bodies were messy, the special temperament of the scholar did not change at all.
Seeing this woman's specially colored eyes, Asa suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
"Could this woman be Nicole Olvia?" He squinted his eyes and looked up and down at the mature woman who looked like a martyr.
The moment he saw these five people, Asa knew that these five people had probably put their lives and deaths on the line, and even knew in his heart that the world government intended to conceal information, but he still wanted to know the truth.
Furious in the heart of Asa's eyes, Nicole Olvia calmed down and said firmly: "I know you, Hebolite D. Asa, the sea thief who was rewarded by the navy for the first time reached 300 million Baileys, and his crime was to rob the gold of the sky, I don't know what you told us to do?" ”
"You ...... Don't seem afraid of death? Asa asked, curiously.
No one will remain calm in the face of death, unless there is really something more important than death, like Whitebeard saving Ace!
Asa is also afraid of death, there is no point in not wanting to die, if he dies without having time to flee in the battle with the strong, he will probably choose to face death calmly.
Hearing Asa ask such a question, the eyes of a rickety old man with a beard hanging down to his chest lit up, "Inheritor of the will of D, do you really know something?" ”
Nicole Olvia and three other scholars also looked at him with blazing eyes.
"Huh! I don't know anything and don't want to know! Asa laughed coldly, the text of history cares about his? As long as you live a wonderful and happy life, everything else is difficult to make you look sideways.
"To answer my question, are you not afraid of death? What's the point of a moth fighting a fire? ”
"The heirs of the will of D, the history that the world government has tried to cover up will one day be revealed, and we are only the pioneers of the path, and there will be successors who will follow this path......" The bearded old man raised his hands high, and the fanaticism in his eyes was like a believer who has seen a god.
Asa understood that these people's search for historical truth was as impossible to be swayed by any words as he was in search of an exciting life.
There were thirty-three of them when they went to sea, but now there are only five left, and the death of so many people does not make them want to give up.
"Asa, if you dare to plunder the heavenly gold, it means that you are not afraid of the world government, and you have the D word in your name, don't you want to know the history of the disappearance eight hundred years ago?" Nicole Olvia changed her mind and began to invite Asa.
"Historical text? What are you kidding me, can't people who don't know the text of history live? Asa had no interest in anything but his own goals.
Curiosity, he has! For example, where did the Devil Fruit come from, and what secret weapon does the World Government have, but isn't it more exciting to find the truth and solve the mystery by yourself?
"I'm here to remind you that it's up to you to decide whether you listen or not! What you have done has touched the bottom line of the world government, and if you continue to do it, the whole of O'Hara will be implicated! ”
"No!" The five archaeologists looked firm, "Everyone in O'Hara will support our approach!" ”
ps: Thanks for the little secret of the summer, the bloody demon venerable 100 coins reward.
