This time, it was the turn of a very filial daughter to jump out and refute it. After all, one piece of news after another shocked everyone, to the point that no one dared to believe it anymore.
"Believe it or not, that's the truth. That thing has indeed been sleeping in the place I mentioned."
Lynch didn't say that the thing was completely unusable. After all, an 800-year-old robot could store Joy Boy's Conqueror's Haki, so the technology in this world was sometimes a bit outrageous. At this point, he himself couldn't guarantee whether the thing would work or not, since he hadn't tested it.
These people were also silently digesting this information. After all, it was too shocking. If it got out, the whole world would probably go crazy. Many people wouldn't care whether the other party was one of the Four Emperors or not. They would just go over there to get a share of the spoils. At worst, they would just unite and fight. Who's afraid of who?
There's a saying that two fists can't beat four hands. No matter how powerful Kaido is, he can't possibly fight the whole world by himself. You have to remember that it's one of the three great ancient weapons.
As long as the other party hasn't found or grasped it, those people's madness won't stop; they'll keep chasing after this thing.
"I feel like Wano Country is a ticking time bomb right now. Once this gets out, it's bound to explode."
At this moment, Gion said something that immediately frightened someone so much that their face turned pale.
At first, Hiyori was a little happy as the princess of that country, but after thinking it over, she realized that for her now, this thing was a burden or a hot potato. If others found out, the entire Wano Country would be in big trouble.
Thinking of this, she immediately looked at Lin Qi with pleading eyes.
Lin Qi looked at the other person's pleading expression and felt speechless. It seemed the other person really saw him as someone to put out a fire.
Seeing the other party's pleading expression, Lin Qiqi decided to say a few words in his defense.
"First, you need to understand that while destroying an island in one strike is powerful, here's the problem: how do you replenish its energy? How do you pilot it? Do you know? Do those people know? This kind of high output and high burst damage, capable of destroying an island at once, proves that it requires a huge amount of energy."
"Not to mention, it's something from 800 years ago. Are you sure this thing still exists now? After all, it's not like a Devil Fruit that can exist forever. Once it's used up, it's used up, or rather, it disappeared long ago with the changes in history."
"Even driving mechanical things requires human support. We didn't get anything; it was just a model to display."
Lin Qi's words were like a wake-up call for everyone. Indeed, what good is knowing about that thing? There are a lot of problems. It's an 800-year-old artifact, a genuine antique.
"Secondly, who among you can drive?"
"After all, those ships are definitely different from the ones we have now."
"Thirdly, how do you plan to get it out and salvage it? And after it's been submerged in seawater for 800 years, are you sure it'll be usable?"
It was Lynch's last sentence that reminded these people that something that had been submerged at the bottom of the sea for 800 years could still be used. Based on their common sense, the answer was no, so that thing was just a scrapped exhibit.
"So, Hades doesn't actually exist in this world, and even if you found him, he'd just be a useless piece of junk?"
At this moment, Weiwei couldn't help but speak up.
"Don't even think about it if it's sleeping underground. But there is indeed a place with the blueprints for that thing. However, it has absolutely nothing to do with the Poneglyphs here. So it's all because the other side heard some false information from somewhere. Of course, it's not exactly false. They had a little bit of relevant information and then came to cause trouble."
After hearing this, Weiwei was speechless. It was a complete disaster out of nowhere. And this bastard had obviously found false information.
"That guy is serious; even his intelligence was wrong."
At this moment, Weiwei spoke in a helpless tone, after all, this situation was too absurd.
That guy ruined his house because of a single piece of wrong information.
"Hmm, that's pretty ridiculous for you, but don't you realize they're pirates? Who cares about you?"
Lin Qi spoke a blunt truth: no matter how absurd or problematic it may be, so what? They are pirates, after all. As long as they achieve their goal, everything else is irrelevant.
"Alright, now you know the whole story. The deal is half done. Wait, I'll give all the evidence to everyone in this country to know who the real culprit is, and I'll also help you deal with the rebels and the like."
Lin Qi stretched and slowly began to speak.
"Also, would you like to take a good look at the historical texts here?"
At this moment, Lin Qi shouted towards the door. The person who had been forcibly brought over was held still, unable to move or utter a sound. He could only listen to the conversation inside the door. However, when the conversation reached the main text, it was muted. Then, the voice came out again, as if someone had deliberately cut it off. Of course, he knew who had cut it off—it was the person who had brought him over.
Now that he could move, he didn't waste any words and simply pushed the door open and came in.
At that moment, a man with long hair, dark skin, and a rather impressive physique walked in.
Everyone was a bit confused. Why were there people outside the door? (Good king, good king)
Vivi was the most confused one.
"Miss. All Sunday"
"How will you be here?"
Vivi, it's impossible for the other party to sneak into her house without her noticing. That's impossible.
Weiwei's mind was a bit of a mess at that moment. She couldn't understand why the other person was there, but she quickly realized that she had taken a liking to Lin Qi.
"Did you bring this person here?"
Vivi instantly identified the culprit, since no one else could have brought the person here.
Lin Qi couldn't help but give the other person a thumbs up for their wit.
...
P.S.: Please, handsome guys and beautiful girls, add this to your favorites, recommend it, share it, give it flowers, anything! If you haven't added it to your favorites yet, please do so. Thank you everyone! I'm bowing down to you all!
Chapter 504: They deserved to be wiped out.
"Nico Robin?"
After Gion confirmed who the visitor was, her voice became strange.
"Oh my, I didn't expect this navy lady to know me."
"How could I not recognize the infamous Son of the Devil?"
"Your bounty poster is still hanging on our end."
Nico Robin smiled but didn't say anything, after all, she knew her own situation perfectly well.
"So that's where you were hiding."
Gion was truly surprised to find that the other party was actually here.
"There's nothing I can do. With 7900 million on my hands, I have no choice but to hide and go into hiding."
The other person seemed indifferent to the matter and replied in a joking tone.
"Hmm, I'm actually quite curious. How did a 7-year-old who doesn't even know Haki get a 7900 million bounty on him? Just because your navy killed someone's entire family and destroyed the whole island. But in my eyes, it's not unjust that it was destroyed. However, it's not right to make a little girl take the blame."
"It can't be that Vice Admiral Akainu is so useless that he led those useless Marines to be killed by a little girl."
Lin Qi looked at the two sailors and began to tease them with a smile.
The two were caught after hearing this. After all, a 7-year-old girl destroyed so many warships, and she was given a bounty of 79 million. Anyone with a brain knows that something is wrong.
Not to mention, there were two others who led the team back then, and they are now admirals.
"It seems this gentleman is quite aware of my situation."
"Emmm, I do know."
"Then why do you think it's not a pity that Haora was destroyed?"
Nico Robin hadn't forgotten that there was one sentence in the other person's words.
So although she said it with a calm expression, the excitement in her words was undeniable. At this moment, the other party was very focused on the meaning of her words. In her eyes, everything was the fault of the World Government. There was no wrongdoing on their part. The World Government destroyed so much knowledge and killed so many scholars. And now this person who claimed to understand her said that they deserved their fate. She didn't understand.
"That makes sense. In your view, this place is full of justice, light, and wisdom, but in my view, this shabby place is anything but glamorous."
At this moment, Lin Qi, with his legs crossed, spoke slowly and deliberately.
“You claim that you have the most comprehensive knowledge in the world there, and you often find this knowledge in various ruins outside and bring it back to preserve it.”
"Then why don't you spread your knowledge? Why do you keep it all to yourselves?"
"If the knowledge from that time had been disseminated earlier, even if that place had been destroyed, that knowledge wouldn't have truly disappeared. But you guys, instead, dug and dug, bringing it back to keep for yourselves."
"That's alright, after all, you found it. It's just that you blatantly and simply take it for yourselves under the guise of protecting knowledge, while preventing anyone other than you from learning it."
Lin Qi's words immediately silenced everyone.
Nico Robin wanted to refute, but she didn't know how to refute it from this angle.
"Perhaps the doctor and his colleagues have their own considerations."
"Don't even think about it. You're overthinking it. It's just about taking it for yourself."
"Secondly, there's the historical text itself. It's openly prohibited, yet you still recklessly and publicly announced your research. Who else would you target if not you? If you don't have the strength to protect all of this, don't be reckless. Since you dared to be reckless, you must be prepared to bear the consequences."
"In this ocean, the strong prey on the weak. As the weak, you choose to demand more when others turn a blind eye. If you don't die, who will?"
"Don't you know what it means to be low-key? You think you're the center of the world? You think you can be indulged just because you want to study others? You insist on violating things that are explicitly forbidden, and look what happened, a bunch of idiots who have ruined everyone's lives."
"Indeed, regarding this matter, your side had to break these rules back then."
“Those civilians were innocent, yet you killed them all.”
Nico Robin then spoke through gritted teeth.
After hearing this, Gion didn't know what to do next.
"So this is the problem with the Navy."
"I didn't say you were all at fault; I just said you deserved to be wiped out."
"And were those ordinary people good people? What kind of life did you have when you were a child? You ate a Devil Fruit and were treated like a monster and beaten up. Don't tell me that the people there didn't know it was a Devil Fruit, yet no one explained it to you and you lived such a miserable life. Are you sure those people were good people?"
"Your side is a place full of knowledge, you can't even recognize Devil Fruits? Are you kidding me?"
Lin Qi's words struck her like a heavy hammer, instantly turning her originally dark face pale and causing her to take a step back.
Nico Robin thought about her childhood experiences, which Lynch had now laid bare, adding the point that he really couldn't recognize her as a Devil Fruit user.
