Chapter 315 The beginning is also the end! Go to the final island
The arrival of Ian and his party did not cause any waves on the island.
Because before they arrived, Ian had already instructed the pirates on the island to temporarily evacuate the residents nearby.
So when Ian and his friends drove straight in and stood under the towering lighthouse, no one on the island even knew about it.
”Is it here?”
Yamato looked around.
”If Whitebeard didn’t lie to me, then it should be here.”
Ian said.
If Whitebeard dared to lie to him at that time, Ian would really admire the courage of Whitebeard.
He really dared to joke about the lives of his beloved children.
“Barrett, I leave it to you.”
Ian said.
”You, do you think I’m a shovel?”
Barrett snorted coldly, but also took two steps forward.
The power of the fusion fruit was activated instantly, and the purple halo instantly enveloped the entire lighthouse and the ground below.
Then everything covered by Barrett’s ability began to tremble.
Red Hair looked at all this in surprise.
Barrett has been completely tamed by Ian.
The guy who was still unruly on Captain Roger’s ship back then, now obeys Ian’s orders.
Even if he always complains, he is unambiguous when he actually takes action.
The corners of Red Hair’s mouth curled up slightly.
That’s great.
The arrogant and solitary Barrett now has a trusted companion.
While the red-haired man was sighing, Barrett’s ability had already brought results.
The ground rumbled and a huge gap appeared. A huge red stone was turned out from the ground below by Barrett, and then neatly placed in front of Ian.
”Oh!”
Yamato ran up impatiently, raised his hand and touched the huge stone, “The last stone is also in hand!”
Robin’s eyes were filled with tears.
The long-cherished wish of the doctor, mother, everyone, and all scholars has finally come true.
“Luo,”
Ian walked forward and stood in front of the big stone, shouting without looking back, “Sea chart.”
“Understood.”
The ability of the surgery fruit was immediately activated, and Luo moved directly in front of Ian and spread a huge sea chart on the ground in front of Ian.
”Huh?”
The red-haired man was stunned.
Redfield was also a little confused. Why is it that Ian is standing on the big stone and looking at it seriously, while Nicole Robin is standing behind and not saying a word?
Shouldn’t this woman be the one to interpret the ancient text? Oh, right!
Redfield reacted instantly.
Is it because Ian doesn’t believe in Nicole Robin, so he simply learned the relevant knowledge of ancient texts from her? What a thoughtful guy.
No matter what Red thought, Ian quickly read the text on the huge stone carefully.
The four signposts in the historical text each record a location. When all four locations appear, they are connected, and the location that appears in the center is the location of the final island.
On the sea chart that Luo Ping spread in front of Ian, three locations were already marked.
And now, the last location has been confirmed.
Ian raised his right hand and flicked his index finger lightly.
The fingertip hit the air and a small air bullet popped out.
The sea chart did not move, but a small hole suddenly appeared on it.
”So, has the location of the final island been determined?”
Teacher Kai took a step forward and walked behind Ian, eagerly stretching his neck to look at the sea chart in front of him.
Not only him, more people were gathering around Ian, even Aunt Lingling, Senior Reid, and Red Hair were eager to see the location of the final island.
Ian raised his eyebrows slightly, and his fingers slid slightly, tearing the air apart, creating two wind blades that tore the newspaper apart and connected the four marked points on it.
If nothing unexpected happens,The intersection of the two cracks is where the final island is.
And the location of this place is.
”Ah?”
Yamato was stunned, “Why is it here?”
”Hahaha!”
The red-haired guy couldn’t help laughing, “Joey Boy really played a big joke on us latecomers!”
”Who could have thought that the final island is actually here.”
Luo couldn’t help clapping his hands while laughing.
I just think that the guy who left the big secret treasure must have a serious brain disease. This is too much of a bad taste.
“That’s why no one has found the whereabouts of the final island for eight hundred years.”
Redfield couldn’t help but sigh, “During these hundreds of years, generation after generation of people have conducted a carpet search of the New World. Almost every island has been checked, but in the end no one has found anything.”
”That’s because everyone has been looking in the wrong place from the beginning.”
Ian’s mouth corners also raised high.
The two wind blades he just sent out left an X-shaped crack on the sea chart.
And this X-shaped intersection is a place on the sea that everyone knows, but no one has ever thought of.
”It turned out to be,”
Ian shrugged his shoulders and couldn’t help laughing, “Inverted Mountain.”
Yes, the four islands marked by the four landmarks in the historical text are connected in pairs, and the final intersection is one of the two intersections of the Red Earth Continent and the Great Route, the great mountain called Inverted Mountain.
That is the starting point of the Grand Line, and the place where the people who ventured into the Grand Line first began their adventure.
”Who could have thought that the starting point of everything is the end point that we have been pursuing!”
Nicole Robin sighed.
O’Hara’s scholars have guessed countless places where the final island might be, but they have never guessed Upside Down Mountain.
”Perhaps that is why Joyboy finally chose this place.”
Red Hair said with a smile, “After all, Upside Down Mountain is the starting point of the Grand Line, but its back is also the end point of the Grand Line.”
”From this point of view, perhaps everything has already been told to us.”
Ian smiled even more.
Yes, it has been said a long time ago that Upside Down Mountain is the end point of the Grand Line.
It’s just that people in the past eight hundred years have always felt that the final island must be in another place, and it must be hidden in a corner that no one can find.
Who would think that what they have been pursuing is right where they stood at the beginning?
It must be said that Joyboy is really a bad taste.
Ian even looked forward to it. The location of the final island alone is so interesting. What kind of joke did Joyboy leave in the great treasure that made all the people in Roger’s pirate group laugh so hard that they couldn’t straighten their backs?
It’s really exciting.
”Let’s go.”
Ian threw the coat on his shoulders, “Towards the end of the world!”
”Oh!!”
At this moment, who can’t be excited and expectant?
Even old veterans like Teacher Kai, Aunt Lingling, and Senior Reid couldn’t help but blush at this moment.
Although there is no hope of becoming the Pirate King, the final island is also one of their lifelong dreams.
So, the Apollo set off again, this time heading directly to the back of the Upside-Down Mountain, the true end of the New World.
However, the ship did not sail in the New World for long, and a gust of wind had already fallen from the sky.
”Ian! Have you been waiting for a long time?”
The gust of wind condensed into the appearance of Dorag, and the man had a bright smile on his face. ”I still feel like I’m dreaming, so Ian, can you tell me again in person? Are we really on the way to the final island now?”
”Huh?”
Senior Ryder and Red Hair were stunned at this time.
Even Aunt Lingling, who knew that Ian should have some connection with the Revolutionary Army, was a little confused at this time.
Even Dorag is here?
Red Hair instantly looked at Ian, who also had a bright smile on his face.
Even the Revolutionary Army was united by him and became a force he could use?
Sure enough, Ian also possesses this power, which unconsciously gathers people around him.The greatest power in the sea! ”Of course I won’t lie to my friends,”
Ian smiled brightly, “So, are you ready to see the truth of this world, my friend?”
”Of course!!”
Drager responded without hesitation and laughed.
He really didn’t expect Ian to directly invite him to the final island.
What an amazing man, Ian! Who in the world doesn’t covet the great secret treasure?
But Ian can honestly share the world’s greatest secret.
It’s not even shared with him alone.
Drager turned around and looked at Charlotte Linlin, Redfield and Red-haired Shanks on the deck.
The strongest pirates on the sea, except Whitebeard, were gathered here by Ian! This means that in this world, except for the World Government, all the powerful forces have been gathered by Ian! The World Government will have to deal with all the remaining forces in this world except them! There will never be a more possible moment than this! There will never be anyone more likely to overthrow the World Government than Ian! ! Drager was so excited that his body was shaking! But he actually thought, if Ian ruled the world, would the world become better?
Will the Beasts Pirates become the second world government?
Such thinking often does not last too long, and he will tell himself that Ian is different.
Ian has ruled Wano Country since he was eight years old. When he was still a child, he was in full control of the sea ruled by the Beasts Pirates.
Later, he directly occupied the entire New World and became the true king of the New World.
However, the countries and regions ruled by him are often getting better and better, and have never been getting worse and worse.
Drager does not think that Ian is hiding.
Who is he hiding for?
He was originally a pirate, so no one would expect anything from him.
So, after getting the great secret treasure left by Joy Boy, he only needs to concentrate on preparing for the final battle! ”So, Ian, where is the final island?”
Drager couldn’t suppress his curiosity at all.
Even a man as calm as him, when facing the secret that only the Roger Pirates knew for hundreds of years, would feel like a kitten scratching his heart.
Ian smiled and said, “The starting point of everything is the end of everything.”
”Ah?”
Drager was stunned, he blinked a little blankly, and then whispered, “The starting point of everything is the end of everything?”
”It’s in the Upside-Down Mountain.”
Ian revealed the answer.
Drager was stunned again, and then couldn’t help laughing.
“At the beginning of the adventure, is it actually standing at the end?”
Drager’s shoulders kept shaking, “Haha! Joyboy, what an interesting man!”
“So,”
Ian said, “Let’s go see what interesting things this interesting man has left for us.”
“My honor.”
Drager’s smile did not diminish.
”Mr. Dragon!”
Ace came over at this time, and the young boy interrupted with a smile, “How is Sabo? How is he recently?”
Ace knew about Sabo’s participation in the Revolutionary Army a long time ago.
The two even got in touch with Dragoner through Ian.
“Very good,”
Drager said with a smile, “Now we are gathering our forces to prepare for the final battle. When I saw your bounty order before, I was so excited that I ran around and told everyone that you were his brother.”
“It shouldn’t be long before you can meet each other.”
“Great!”
Ace immediately clenched his fists, his face full of joy, “Finally, I can fight side by side with that guy again!”
How many years have passed since I last met Sabo? I really miss the life at that time.
By the way, there is also Luffy. I don’t know how he is doing now after the old man took him to the navy.
When the war starts, I must ask Lord Ian to show mercy, at least to spare the lives of the old man and Luffy.
Thinking of this, Ace’s mouth corners raised.
He is different now than when he was a child.
Sabo, Luffy, wait to be stunned! The Apollo continued to move forward.
In the sea further back in the New World, the islands have become very rare.
After crossing the Shuixianxing Island, there is no more island in front, only a vast blue sea.
Further ahead, soon, the towering red cliffs like the Wall of Sighs appeared in front of the group.
The Red Earth Continent has arrived.
After sailing north along the Red Earth Road for a while, the cliffs turned into steep slopes, and then the slope gradually became gentle.
This is the Upside-Down Mountain.
“The back of the Upside-Down Mountain,”
Teacher Kai stood at the bow of the ship, looking up at the mountain that towered into the clouds, “This is indeed a place I have never been to,”
“So,”
He turned around, “Is the island hidden inside this mountain?”
“The problem is, how do we get in.”
