One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

Chapter 370 The Red Road Sign! Half of the Puzzle Leading to the End and the Shadow Gate

Faced with Robin's quest for the Poneglyphs.

Duke Inuarashi and Nekomamushi readily agreed to their benefactor's request without the slightest hesitation.

"Since it is your wish, the Mink Tribe will naturally lead the way."

Please come with us.

Supported by their guards, the two kings personally carried the lanterns that emitted a dim, yellowish glow.

They led the way, guiding the Straw Hat crew along the tree-hole staircase hidden beneath the giant tree roots, step by step, towards the hidden space deeper within the Whale Tree.

The steps spiral downwards, and the surrounding air becomes increasingly humid and ancient.

After descending for an unknown amount of time, the space ahead suddenly opened up.

As the lanterns held by Inuarashi and Nekomamushi were illuminated.

What appeared before everyone was a huge, deep red stone tablet that exuded an ancient and mysterious aura.

This stone tablet stands silently in this dark underground space, seemingly untouched by the passage of time.

Robin's breath hitched slightly, and her intelligent eyes instantly filled with fascination and awe.

She strode forward, extended her slender, fair fingers, and gently stroked the ancient characters carved so deeply on the surface of the stone tablet with a hint of reverence.

"This color... can't be wrong."

Robin's voice was filled with barely suppressed excitement as he felt the cold touch on his fingertips.

All the historical texts she had ever seen before were a deep, dark blue.

The dark red stone tablet before us, as red as fresh blood, undoubtedly represents a more special and crucial meaning.

Duke Inuarashi, leaning on his cane, stepped forward and stood beside Robin, recounting the true origin of the red stone tablet to everyone present:

"Lord Robin has a good eye."

"This red stone is known as the 'Roadmark History Text'."

"It is the key that guides all seafarers on this sea to their final destination."

He paused, his gaze sweeping over Luffy, Law, and the others, before continuing his explanation:

There are only four such red stones in the world.

"Each stone is marked with the coordinates of a specific location."

"Only when you have collected all the coordinates on these four red stones can you cross these four locations on the sea chart."

"Then, at the very center of these two intersecting lines, the legendary island will appear..."

"That is, the final island of the Grand Line, Laugh Tale."

The leader of the cat vipers added from the side, his tone filled with reverence for the legendary island.

After hearing this explanation, the entire underground space fell silent for a moment.

Robin turned around, looked at Luffy who was gazing up at the stone monument behind her, and a bright smile bloomed on her lips.

"Luffy, can you hear me?"

"If you include this piece on the island, plus the one we won as the ultimate victor in the Dressrosa Colosseum."

"We now have the coordinates of the historical text of two road signs."

Upon hearing Robin's words, Luffy paused for a second before suddenly realizing what she meant.

He clenched his fists tightly against his chest with excitement, his eyes gleaming.

"Very good!"

The other members of the Straw Hat crew also had smiles on their faces, unable to hide their excitement and joy.

The confirmation of this fact means that in this magnificent and brutal battle for the throne of "Pirate King" amidst the rise of numerous heroes.

The Straw Hat Pirates have quietly obtained half of that crucial entry ticket.

They have unknowingly moved ahead of all the supernovas, and even most of the old-school pirate crews in the New World.

It has taken an incredibly solid step towards the pinnacle that all pirates dream of.

However, amidst this exhilarating joy, Luo reached out and adjusted the polka-dot hat on his head:

"Don't get too excited, everyone."

"Although we have already secured two pieces, the rest of the road ahead will not be so easy."

Luo raised his head and looked around at everyone:

"According to the current information available from the New World Underground Intelligence Network, the remaining two red road marker historical texts..."

"They are respectively under the rule of two sea emperors who reign over the new world—"

"In the hands of Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, and Charlotte Linlin, one of the Four Emperors."

"This means that if the Straw Hat leader wants to reach the final island and become the Pirate King..."

"Therefore, our all-out war with these two Yonko is an inevitable path, and there are no shortcuts ahead."

"We must snatch those two stones from their mouths."

Despite this terrifying reality, Luffy's face showed no sign of fear or retreat.

Instead, a haughty grin spread across his face.

Deep within those clear eyes, a fierce and soaring fighting spirit ignited.

"So what if they're one of the Four Emperors!"

"Whether it's Big Mom or Kaido, just shoot them all down if they're standing in our way!"

Luffy declared with a loud laugh, his fearless spirit inspiring everyone present.

After Robin took out the special paper and charcoal pencil he had prepared and quickly finished making rubbings of the ancient characters on the red stone tablet, the group returned along the long passage.

It was already quite late when they stepped out of the treehouse in the Whalewood.

The grand thanksgiving banquet in the square has come to an end.

Most of the fur tribesmen were exhausted from days of fighting and revelry and returned to their tents to rest.

But the Straw Hat crew showed no signs of fatigue.

They sat around the huge bonfire in the center of the square, where only a few embers of dark red embers remained, seemingly oblivious to the fact that Duke Inuarashi and Boss Nekomamushi were equally wide awake, continuing their conversation.

Laughter echoed in the quiet night sky as people enjoyed this rare moment of peace.

"Sanji! I want more meat! My stomach has shrunk again!"

Suddenly, Luffy patted his stomach, which was making a protesting noise, and turned to shout loudly at the chef not far away.

Hearing this familiar request, Sanji sighed helplessly and rubbed his temples.

"You're such a bottomless pit, I just can't do anything with you."

Despite complaining, Sanji stood up and walked briskly back to the makeshift kitchen built next to the ruins.

He had been busy in the kitchen for a long time, and with the crisp sound of the cleaver hitting the cutting board and the sizzling sound of the wok stirring, an enticing aroma wafted out again.

Finally, he used the last bit of premium ingredients to serve everyone the last batch of sumptuous food for the evening.

Watching his companions devour their food like hungry wolves, Sanji took out a handkerchief from his shirt pocket and carefully wiped his hands.

The series of battles and cooking all night had left him feeling a bit tired.

Sanji turned around and walked at a leisurely pace to a dimly lit corner of the ruins at the edge of the plaza.

Here, far from the warmth of the campfire, the night wind blew through the ruins, bringing a chill.

Sanji leaned against a broken, massive stone pillar and pulled a delicate metal lighter from his pocket.

With a crisp "click," a tiny flame lit up, illuminating his profile, which was half-hidden beneath his blond hair.

He skillfully lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and prepared to enjoy a moment of peace and relaxation in this undisturbed corner.

However, just as Sanji slowly exhaled his first white smoke ring...

His gaze relaxed slightly, and his thoughts drifted away in that instant.

The lifeless pile of broken bricks and heavy stones beside him suddenly began to twist without warning.

The hard stone texture seemed to transform into soft rubber in an instant, emitting a strange friction sound.

Then, under Sanji's slightly surprised gaze...

The twisted stones opened slowly outwards like two meticulously designed, heavy doors.

No light shone through the crack in the stone door; instead, it revealed a deep, dark space that seemed capable of swallowing everything...
