Shared talent: Please, countless versions of me!

Hearing the chattering below, Luffy's face showed impatience.

He yelled at the crowd, "Shut up! I've already said I didn't take it, so don't try to tell me what to do! If you don't like it, let's fight!"

After Luffy's shout, no one dared to speak loudly anymore.

Fight Luffy?

Don't be silly, that's a ruthless person who defeated two emperors at the same time, what makes them think they can fight him?

If we're talking about fighting, only another ruthless person has that kind of combat power, right?

Everyone glanced silently at Zhang Shan, who was standing at the back, and quickly looked away after their eyes met.

"Forget it, these two are no pushovers, it's better not to cause trouble for ourselves."

The crowd murmured amongst themselves.

Luffy was too lazy to waste words on them; they weren't even worthy of listening!

He led his companions toward Zhang Shan, shouting, "Zhang Shan! Let's go have a banquet!"

"Okay!" Zhang Shan agreed with a smile, guessing that Luffy had something to tell him.

Of course, this guy's main purpose is definitely to hold a banquet and enjoy a delicious meal of meat.

Soon, amidst the expectant gazes of many pirates, the two sides headed to the back mountain of Elbaf.

The scenery here is beautiful and there's no one to disturb us, making it the perfect place to hold a banquet.

Not long after the two sides took their seats, more giants and the Straw Hat Grand Fleet arrived.

Even the Seven Warlords of the Sea and Kaido followed.

Those standing here now are the elite of the pirates!

They didn't speak or clamor to join the banquet; they simply stood silently to the side, listening quietly.

Luffy felt helpless with these people. He knew that if he didn't reveal some information today, they probably wouldn't leave easily.

Thinking of this, Luffy added another grudge against Morgans to his list!

If it weren't for that pigeon constantly livestreaming himself, he could have made a fortune in silence!

This feeling of being completely exposed to everyone's gaze is not pirate-like at all!

"Alright, tell me, where did you see what?" Zhang Shan said with a smile.

He didn't drive away the many powerful figures around him, knowing they wouldn't leave.

Moreover, the mystery left behind by Roger has been nagging at the hearts of people all over the world for more than 20 years, and they are now eager to know what the truth is.

Luffy said, "Simply put, a long, long time ago, a giant ate the Gum-Gum Fruit and awakened its power, establishing a very large and powerful nation."

"In this country, there is no distinction of race or status; everyone is equal and lives the life they want."

As Luffy recounted his story, the Void Century gradually came into view.

Back then, a giant named Joy Boy became Nika of that generation. In order to enable people all over the world to live freely, he established diplomatic relations between various races, bringing all the races of the world together and establishing the largest country in history.

The country's name is also quite casual; it's simply called "One Family."

It means exactly what it says.

Let us all become one family and stop fighting each other.

The idea was wonderful, and they had even begun to put it into practice, winning over the lunar people who had mastered the core technology.

But in the end, they failed miserably, and were ambushed and shattered by the human alliance of twenty nations.

This makes the already rare race even rarer. The Lunaria race, which has inherited the lunar civilization, is now reduced to only a few cats and kittens, living a life of hiding and running away every day.

In this generation, this once glorious civilization is reduced to just one person, Jhin, who knows nothing about the past.

The rest, such as the Mink Tribe, although some descendants remain, are basically playthings of the Celestial Dragons. Whenever they want to be curious and change things up, they capture some rare races to satisfy their cravings, and then discard them without a second thought.

This is one of the reasons why these minority groups are not numerous.

They were all ruined by the Celestial Dragons!

"That's the general background. As for the specifics, let Robin tell you. She knows more about it than I do!" Luffy said with a smile.

Zhang Shan nodded, but instead of immediately asking Robin to talk about that country, he asked Luffy, "Didn't Joy Boy leave you any messages?"

While picking his nose, Luffy said, "I kept it, but I'm not interested in what he said. I'll achieve my dreams in my own way."

"That's it."

When Luffy said he wanted to fulfill his dream, everyone around him became curious.

Among them were people who knew Luffy and wanted to reminisce. These people all knew that Luffy's dream was to become the Pirate King. Judging from the current situation, Luffy's dream has already been realized. Why would Luffy still say that? Does Luffy have other dreams?

However, Luffy has no intention of explaining anything to these people.

Robin quickly recounted the story of that once-great empire.

"It was a technologically advanced country. With the help of the moon people, they built an advanced future city in just ten years and mastered all kinds of incredible technologies. People didn't have to worry about food. Even if they did nothing, they had an endless supply of food. People could just live the life they wanted every day."

"Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. What Joy Boy did soon aroused the dissatisfaction of the old royal family. Under the instigation of a mysterious being, the ancestors of the twenty kings united to launch a war against Joy Boy's kingdom. However, for some reason, Joy Boy did not resist. After leaving behind some historical records, he died."

Everyone then realized that this was what the huge kingdom of eight hundred years ago was all about.

Those present were all beings standing at the pinnacle of this world, and they immediately understood what had happened back then.

It's nothing more than a power shift at the top. I guess the World Government used underhanded means to defeat Joy Boy, which is why they've been covering up the truth of what happened back then.

Upon realizing this, they instantly lost interest in that Joey Boy.

I thought it left behind weapons powerful enough to conquer the world, or countless treasures, but it turned out to be just some boring history...

However, a glint flashed in Vegapunk's eyes. He had also studied the Void Century and knew that the most powerful thing about the Great Kingdom was not these so-called family members, but their technology, which could be called a miracle.

You have to understand, Vegapunk only discovered a tiny bit of the Great Kingdom and he has already achieved what he has today. He can't even imagine how powerful the Great Kingdom must have been at its peak!

However, Robin doesn't seem to intend to explain this matter. If you want to know, you'll need to talk to Luffy and the others privately later to see if they can take you to Laugh Tale again to see what remains.

After the banquet ended, everyone left Elbaf to attend to their own business.

However, Luffy's identity as the Pirate King has been confirmed, and the events of eight hundred years ago have also been revealed, without causing any waves on the sea.

After all, Robin never revealed the real secret, so there's nothing they can do about it even if they want to uncover the truth.

Even Morgans, that pigeon, stopped taking aerial photos of Luffy and went back to write news about Ace.

Ace has recently made a name for himself on the high seas. Although he is not as successful as Luffy, he has successfully reclaimed Whitebeard's former territory and regained his position as one of the Four Emperors.

This perfectly fills the void left by Luffy becoming king.

After everyone had left, Luffy suddenly came up to Zhang Shan mysteriously and whispered, "Zhang Shan! I have something really important to tell you!"

Seeing that this kid was being so cautious, Zhang Shan became interested and walked with Luffy behind a big tree to hear what he had to say.

"Actually, that Joey Boy left me a message. He wanted me to continue his dream and build a kingdom where all races could live in peace! But I don't want to do that; it goes against my original intention!"

"Does Joey Boy know where you can get to?" Zhang Shan asked doubtfully.

“Yes, he said that someone could see the present through the Devil Fruit’s power, so he didn’t resist back then.” Luffy nodded and said, “But he actually did resist, but the power of Uranus wasn’t strong enough and didn’t meet his expectations, so he only resisted symbolically before giving up.”

"Uranus's power wasn't strong enough? So he gave up? No, what is all this about? Speak slowly, I'm getting confused!" Zhang Shan frowned. He was genuinely confused now. The more Luffy talked, the less he understood.

Just then, Robin's voice came from behind them: "Let me say it!"

Robin leaned against the tree, smiling, and said, "Let's start from the beginning!"

“A long, long time ago, before Joy Boy was even born, the Moon People came to this blue planet. They had very advanced technology, and the power source for this technology was gold. In order to obtain more gold, the Moon People began to plunder the natives, which is us.”

"But we're not pushovers either. With the power of Devil Fruits and Haki, lunar technology can't gain any advantage over us. So, they changed their strategy, from unilateral aggression to exchanging advanced technology for gold."

"Such transactions have continued for hundreds of years. Over time, the people of the moon and the people of our blue planet have established a basic friendship. However, these people live on the red earth and rarely come down. Therefore, the friendship between the two sides is only a very basic trade relationship."

"But everything changed after Joy Boy came along!"

Zhang Shan's eyes lit up, and he quickly answered, "Was it because Joy Boy was too strong, making the Moon People hesitant, and that's why they ended up fighting?"

Robin rolled her eyes at him and said, "How could that be? Joy Boy and Luffy have similar personalities, and Joy Boy is even more reliable than Luffy. How could he possibly fight with the Moon People? Don't talk, just listen to me."

Before anyone knew it, the crew members from both sides had gathered around and were all listening to Robin tell his story.

Sanji thoughtfully prepared drinks for the ladies present, which displeased the men, so he simply served them some other beverages to appease them.

After clearing her throat and thanking Sanji, Robin began to tell her story again.

“Joy Boy did not bring war. After traveling the world, he brought together the two most powerful kingdoms in the world at the time to form a great kingdom. These two kingdoms were Alabasta and the Kingdom of the Moon People.”

Chapter 181 Poking Your Brain

Joy Boy won over the two most powerful kingdoms in the world at the time.

The Moon People's Kingdom of Gods needs no further explanation, but another country, Alabasta...

If Zhang Shan remembers correctly, this is one of the Twenty Kings, right? Why was he also recruited by Joey Boy?

Why did he join forces with Joey Boy to fight against him, only to betray him at a crucial moment and help Joey Boy?

"This Alabasta is too strange..." Zhang Shan thought to himself.

Robin continued, "As for what exactly happened in this country, Joy Boy didn't leave a detailed record. He only said that their country was very successful, but he underestimated human desires, which led to the final catastrophe."

"The twenty kings united for various reasons, proclaiming Joy Boy to be a great pirate who wanted to destroy the world. They defeated Joy Boy by surprise and destroyed his kingdom."

Vegapunk then jumped out, looking anxious, and asked, "What about the technology? Didn't that country leave behind any technology either?"

Robin shook his head: "No, there's only this information there, and a sentence from Joey Boy."

"What did you say?" Everyone looked at Robin, their eyes filled with curiosity.

“Um…” Robin hesitated for a moment, then laughed and said, “He left a smiley face and wrote a bunch of Ds next to it.”

"what?"

Seeing the stunned crowd, Luffy was the first to burst out laughing, saying, "Hahaha! I knew you guys would have this kind of expression!"

After regaining his composure, Zhang Shan asked, "What about the great treasure? What did Joy Boy leave behind?"

"That's a method for collecting energy based on scientific beliefs," Franky said. "Sigh, I feel like that stuff isn't even as good as my Coke energy!"

"Faith, huh?" Zhang Shan also lost interest. He guessed that Joy Boy had used lunar technology to technologize the power of faith and was planning to create a large number of gods.
