Chapter 617 Olivia's Excitement
"We have achieved a phased victory. Let's hold a banquet to celebrate today. Rebecca and Mantis, you can go to migrate the island tomorrow. Remember to say hello to Whitebeard then."
Vic gave some instructions and asked everyone to prepare food, drinks and other things needed for the banquet. There were trees and animals on Titan Island, but the plants and animals there were not ordinary ones. The fibers of the plants were tougher and denser, and the bones of the animals were thicker and denser.
Compared with the animals and plants in the outside world, the animals and plants on Titan Island are much smaller in height. After all, they have been growing and reproducing in a high-gravity environment for a long time, and this is the result generation after generation. Therefore, you can also find fruits and meat here, and the flavor is very different from that in the outside world.
"Via! Come with me, I have something to discuss with you." After the banquet, everyone was full of food and drink. Vic called out to Olivia, who was a little drunk, and walked towards his house.
Olivia was so dazed that she didn't notice Vic calling her. It was Wendy beside her who pushed her that brought her back to her senses. Everyone else looked at the two people who entered the house one after another in surprise. What were they going to do after eating and drinking?
The two of them had been alone together in this mysterious way many times in the past two years. Coupled with Olivia's increasingly mature and plump figure, they had to suspect that the two were probably up to no good.
Rebecca and Ian's eyes seemed to be popping out, with blazing flames reflected in them. Those were not the flames produced by their burning anger, but the reflections from the bonfire. However, only they themselves knew whether there was fire in their hearts.
Of course, Vic didn't really do those things with Olivia. He just went to Olivia to learn the main text of history. The fewer people who knew about this kind of thing, the better. That's why Vic often went to see Olivia alone, and each time he went there would stay for most of the day.
As for Olivia's body shape, her life has gradually become stable now, and she has no worries about food and clothing. In addition, she has started practicing to become stronger, which is very different from the time when she was in fear and hiding. Naturally, her body shape will change a lot, which is a normal physiological change, but putting the two things together will arouse endless reverie.
Olivia saw Vic sitting at the table, so she sat over too. Her confused mind was soon attracted by the five long paper scrolls that Vic produced out of thin air. Although she knew that Vic would not talk to her about unimportant things after the banquet, she still couldn't figure out Vic's thoughts when looking at the five paper scrolls.
"What is this? A copy of the historical text? How come you have so many?"
Olivia's confused mind was instantly awakened by the paper scroll that Vic unfolded, because the paper scroll was full of ancient texts, and the size was about the same as the historical text. Vic took out five such paper scrolls, which surprised her.
O'Hara and his team had only collected one piece of historical text in all this time, but Vic quietly took out five copies. His strength and dedication were truly beyond reproach.
What Vic took out was not a rubbing, but a copy he had made based on his photographic memory before learning ancient characters from Olivia. The only difference was that the format and size were the same as those in the historical text.
In fact, the reason why O'Hara only found a piece of historical text was not because they were careless or had bad luck. The main reason was that the team formed by a group of archaeologists was too weak. The places where historical texts are stored are not ordinary places. Without strength, many things on many levels cannot be touched, and there are many places that cannot be visited. It is very lucky for such a team to find a piece of historical text.
Look at where Vic found the historical texts. There is a piece of it embedded in the base of the Sky Island Golden Bell, but is Sky Island a place that ordinary people can go to?
Even if they could go to the Sky Island, could they find the golden bell hidden on a certain island cloud for hundreds of years? The Shandians and the people of Angel Island had been searching for it for so long but still couldn't find it. Would ordinary people like them have the ability to go to that island cloud?
Another piece was found in the Sea Forest of Fishman Island. How many pirates lost their ships and people on their way to Fishman Island? Even powerful pirates are like this, so what is the survival rate of ordinary people like them? A little change can cost them their lives. This is the difficulty of the geographical environment.
There is another piece in the underground palace of Alabasta. Can ordinary people enter such a place? Do a few archaeologists have such a big face to ask the king to let them in to visit?
There are several such historical texts, such as the underground of Wano Country and the Whale Forest of Zou. These are places that ordinary people are not allowed to enter. How can O'Hara's scholars find them?
Some are simply hidden away and cannot be found without the ability to listen to the sounds of all things. For example, some are hidden in the mountains of a hot spring town or under a desert in Alabasta. This is not something that a simple archaeologist can accomplish.
There is another kind of ability that cannot be found even if one has the ability to listen to the voices of all things. There is a piece of such historical text in Vic's dimensional ring, which neither Roger nor Kozuki Oden can find.
This is something that requires great luck to encounter and obtain. Roger, the former Pirate King, obviously does not have this great luck, otherwise he would be the one who truly changed the world, rather than an adventurer born in the wrong era. Although Roger opened the Age of Discovery, his greatest role was to lay the groundwork for this era that is about to enter a rampage.
"These are all things I encountered while carrying out missions and adventures on the Grand Line over the years. I thought they were useful so I wrote them down. Later I learned that they were ancient characters.
Now that the world government is gone, I can finally take a good look at what is recorded here. You are obsessed with the blank 100-year history, so take a good look at it too."
In fact, he already knew the general contents of three of the five historical texts in Victor's hand. The one in Alabasta recorded the location of Pluto, the one in Sky Island recorded the location of Aquaman, and the one in Fishman Island was an apology letter written by Joyboy to the mermaid princess.
Pluto and Aquaman Vic already knew about this. Even though they could still read this apology letter, they also wanted to know what happened that year. But what Vic wanted to know most was what was recorded on the piece in the dimensional ring and the piece in the belly of the Hot Spring Island guarded by a giant robot.
"Vic! Meeting you may have really used up all my luck in the first half of my life!"
Olivia choked up while holding an open history text in her hand, her eyes misty. She had been displaced in the first half of her life and had experienced several major life changes, wasn't it all for these pieces of paper on the table?
But since she met Wick, her life has completely changed. Things have become smoother and smoother. She no longer has to worry about food and drink, and she no longer has to worry about being hunted by the World Government. She has also become stronger and has a certain ability to protect herself.
Now seeing so many historical texts that she had been longing for, her heart was completely stirred. The comparison between the two different lives made her realize how lucky she was to meet Vic!
In the eyes of the World Government, O'Hara is just a demon-killing order, but Vic can force the Five Elders to compromise. Such a person may really be able to change the world! Olivia thought in her heart!
