The Pirate Garen - #444 - Chapter 439
After listening to Galen’s version of ancient history, Robin couldn’t make any other expressions other than admiration.
“This historical system is very complete and can perfectly make up for the gap in the past one hundred years. It also has a publicity effect for the present and has great educational significance for the future.”
“If we can win in the end, it will become an undeniable canon.”
“That’s real history.”
As Robin spoke, his expression suddenly felt a little lonely:
“The history I studied will be buried there forever, right?”
“this.”
Looking at the beautiful historian in front of him whose faith was slightly shattered, Galen, the inventor of history, did not feel ashamed at all:
“History is written by the victors.”
“When I was just writing history, the original part was slightly more.”
“.”
Robin couldn’t help giving Galen a blank look.
“Forget it.”
She struggled for a moment, and soon a relieved expression appeared on her face:
“My dream is to discover the truth of history and satisfy my own obsession.”
“Since you have a better choice, it’s enough for me to find out the truth myself, and there’s no need to make that truth known to everyone.”
“You’re right to think so.”
Galen praised Robin, and said to her mysteriously:
“So.”
“I’ll need your professional knowledge soon.”
“kindness?”
Robin was taken aback for a moment, and said in a puzzled way:
“I have already reviewed this ‘historical truth’, and there is nothing that can be modified.”
“Next, just use my signboard as an expert in ancient texts and send out this ‘archaeological paper’, right?”
“etc.”
Robin’s mind was flexible, and she noticed the overtones in Galen’s words as she spoke:
“Galen, you.”
“Won’t you invent something else?”
“That’s right!”
Galen nodded, and took out another map and a photo from his pocket.
The map was surveyed and drawn by Nami, and it records the terrain information of an unknown island in detail;
The photo was taken by an airship, which clearly recorded the surface of the island from a bird’s eye view, making it unobstructed.
From the maps and photos, this island is just one of the many deserted islands in the New World sea area, with only wasteland and forests on it, without any signs of human activities.
“This is?”
Robin couldn’t understand.
“Do you still remember the predecessor of Delian mentioned in that period of history, the Kingdom of Demacia located in the New World Sea?”
Galen took aerial photos of the airship, pointed at the uninhabited island solemnly and said:
“Here is the ruins of the Kingdom of Demacia.”
“you?!”
Robin instantly understood Galen’s intentions, and couldn’t help but widen his eyes:
“It’s not enough for you to invent history, and you are going to make a fake ruin yourself?”
“Hahaha”
Galen laughed proudly instead of ashamedly:
“How can it be more convincing to create historical monuments of civilization just by inventing history with empty words?”
“Robin.”
He completely ignored the helplessness in Robin’s eyes, and said to her seriously:
“What I want you to do now is to use your archaeological knowledge to design a ‘Demacia Kingdom Ruins’ on this desert island.”
“You have to make some ‘relics’ and bury them, and then write some ancient characters in ancient characters on the walls of the ruins that no one can understand. It makes people feel that this is the ancient city of Debang eight or nine hundred years ago.”
“Of course, before you do this, remember to find a way to make these fake cultural relics and fake relics old, so that people won’t see the flaws.”
“.”
Robin was completely speechless.
She didn’t expect Galen to ask her to violate professional ethics to publish fake papers. She even asked her, an archaeologist who was supposed to protect cultural relics, to practice archaeology and reverse the knowledge to engage in counterfeiting cultural relics.
“this”
Robin hesitated for a moment, and couldn’t help retorting:
“Galen, is there any point in doing this?”
“With my platform as an archaeologist, even if there are no fake ruins and fake cultural relics, ordinary people will believe it.”
“And you deliberately produced such a large fake relic, if the production is not sophisticated enough, or if experts verify the authenticity, it will reveal a few more flaws.”
“That means a lot.”
Galen was unmoved at all, but said quite proudly:
“This relic can not only prove the existence of the Demacia Kingdom nine hundred years ago, but also directly bring an end to this era of great pirates.”
“It? End the era of great pirates?”
Robin became more and more puzzled, how could she not link the counterfeiting of cultural relics and the fight against pirates together.
Galen did not answer directly, but instead asked Robin:
“Robin.”
“Do you know why the era of great pirates came?”
Faced with this problem, if you are a league cadre who is familiar with “De Li”, you will definitely open your mouth and say such things as “corrupt feudal rule and heavy class exploitation”, “the unprecedented intensification of racial and class contradictions facing the world”, etc. A series of profound social background analysis.
But Robin didn’t recite that thing, so she opened her mouth and said the most direct reason:
“Because of Roger, and the great secret treasure of the One Piece.”
“It was Roger who told the world before his execution that he left all his treasures in Ralph Drew, which inspired countless young people to go out to sea to hunt for treasure, and opened up this era of great pirates.”
“That’s right.”
Galen nodded, smiled softly and said:
“Over the past twenty years, countless young people have a common dream in their hearts:”
“Find Ralph Drew and get the big secret treasure of One Piece.”
“But.”
“What if the legendary Ralph Drew and the so-called great secret treasure have already been found?”
“you”
Robin’s face froze, he couldn’t help looking at the photo of the deserted island and said:
“You don’t mean to”
“Yes.”
Galen said without changing his expression:
“Ralph Drew buries the truth of history, and the truth of history is the history of the existence of the Kingdom of Demacia and the theory of Demacia.”
“So, Ralph Drew is”
“The ruins of the Kingdom of Demacia!”
“.”
Robin was silent for a moment.
Finally, she couldn’t help questioning Galen’s plan face to face:
“Even Ralph Drew made it himself, isn’t that a bit too crazy?”
“Does anyone really believe this?”
“People from the Roger Pirates have been to Ralph Drew!”
“Robin.”
Galen smiled lightly and shook his head, then asked again:
“They did, but none of them gave Ralph Drew a word.”
“So, you haven’t thought about a question:”
“Since outsiders don’t know where Ralph Drew is, what’s on it, what he looks like, and they can’t even verify whether Ralph Drew exists, then…”
“Roger, how can he say that he has really been to Ralph Drew?”
Hearing that Galen was talking nonsense enough to question whether Roger had been to Ralph Drew, Robin immediately retorted:
“Although the world doesn’t know any news about Lovedrew, Roger left many traces when he searched for Lovedrew:”
“He has traveled the entire Great Channel successively, conquered the new world full of pirates, and borrowed from Kaido and Big Mom at that time the historical text of the road sign that records the existence of Ralph Drew.”
“Also, Roger was the strongest man in the sea before he found Ralph Drew, the king of the sea who defeated White Beard and the Golden Lion.”
“Such a man, can he still make up nonsense to deceive people?”
“yes.”
Galen stretched out his finger, pointed at his smiling face and said:
“Such a man who has traveled the entire great waterway, conquered the new world full of pirates, defeated Whitebeard and the Golden Lion, obtained the historical text of the road sign from Big Mom and Kaido, and stood at the top of the world.”
“Could it still be a lie?”
“.”
Robin’s eyes widened suddenly.
After talking so much, she suddenly realized:
Galen’s current conditions are much stronger than Roger’s back then.
Since those ordinary people who have never seen Ralph Drew at all can believe that Roger has been to Ralph Drew, they will naturally believe Galen.
Powerful to the point of Galen
He said that where there is Love Drew, there is Love Drew.
When Robin was in a daze, Galen continued to smile and said:
“Roger didn’t become the Pirate King because he found Ralph Drew, but because he is the strongest among the pirates, he is honored as the Pirate King.”
“And before Roger told the news about the great secret treasure, Ralph Drew was only a few big figures who knew the main text of history to know the existence of the ‘final island’.”
“So, for 99.99% of people at sea”
“Ralph Drew is just a treasure place that keeps Roger’s savings for many years and contains countless gold and silver treasures.”
“I just need to borrow Tezolo’s gold reserve and put it next to the ‘Kingdom of Demacia’, pile up a few high gold mountains, and take a few dazzling photos to satisfy ordinary people’s desire for Ralph Drew. All fantasy.”
“Put a few more pieces of historical text on it that no one can understand, and those who know a little about Ralph Drew can also be bluffed.”
“certainly.”
“The world government knows this is fake, but what they say is ‘reactionary rhetoric made up’ and no one will believe it.”
“Rayleigh and other veteran crew members of One Piece also know it’s a fake, but they probably won’t stand up and speak out for the World Government.”
“Even if they really want to make things difficult for me, their mouths are absolutely inferior to my overwhelming newspapers, leaflets, radio and television, and no one will listen to the truth.”
“Let’s talk.”
“One Piece’s crew, Rear Admiral Bucky, is also on my side.”
“When the time comes to let him come out and say a few words, the authenticity of this ‘Ralph Drew’ will be even more reliable. “
Galen paused slightly, and the smile on his face became more and more proud:
“Hahaha”
“When this ‘One Piece’s Great Secret Treasure’ falls into my hands, and ‘Ralph Drew’ is also revealed to the public under the camera, those brats who dream of going out to sea to become One Piece should give up completely.”
“you”
Robin shook his head helplessly, and said with emotion:
“If you do this, you don’t know how many people’s dreams will be destroyed.”
“snort!”
Galen snorted disdainfully, and said with a righteous face:
“Young people think about becoming the One Piece King every day, thinking about getting rich overnight with big secret treasures.”
“Who will move the bricks? Who will farm? Who will build the beautiful home with their hands?”
“I’m going to tell them.”
“The big secret treasure is in my hands, right by my side!”
Galen opened his mouth with a lot of reasoning, leaving Robin speechless again.
She hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to Galen’s request:
“All right.”
“I will design this ruin.”
Robin sighed deeply.
She felt herself being led further and further away from Galen, further away from her dream career as an archaeologist
“come on!”
Galen patted Robin on the shoulder expectantly, and carefully instructed:
“Robin, remember to design this ‘Ralph Drew’ beautifully.”
“The architectural style is more magnificent, and the streets and city walls are also more spacious. It is best to reflect the prosperity of the ‘Kingdom of Demacia’.”
“In this way, when the sea stabilizes, we can transform it into a tourist attraction and use the ticket money to earn back the construction cost.”
“correct.”
“The fake cultural relics can also be put in the auction house to cheat big money, and there are…”
“do not talk!”
“Flower Fruit · Second Round Flower!”
Holding the last trace of conscience as an archaeologist, Robin blocked Galen’s mouth in time.
