From Pirate to Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 58 The Will of Ohara

"Were they kidnapped from Sabaody Archipelago again by slave traders?"

Dragon smiled. "They do have great potential. Some of them are very determined, and if they can catch up physically in a short time, they can master a certain amount of Haki."

Big Bear, standing to the side, smiled and said, "It seems Mr. Fireseed has saved many people again this time. The leader and I will go to relocate them."

Beneath the white mask, Kevin waved his hand and replied, "It is indeed about rescuing a group of people, but they are not slaves from Sabaody Archipelago, but archaeologists from Ohara. They have all been captured and are currently being held in the hold of a warship."

(⊙o⊙)！

These words stunned Dorrag.

A second later, he reacted and asked, "Why are you arresting them? They're not pirates... Wait! The Navy wants to arrest them? That means Ohara is in danger!"

Kevin looked at Dragon: "I didn't realize you knew so much."

I remember Dragon knowing Dr. Clover, but can someone just go around spouting nonsense about researching the Poneglyphs?

However, considering these people's insatiable thirst for knowledge, it's understandable that they might ask anyone in a moment of madness.

It was only after the destruction of Ohara, and after experiencing constant betrayals during her seedling stage, that Nico Robin learned to be wise.

"The World Government is certainly aware that Ohara is researching history, but whether it has touched on that taboo from eight hundred years ago, they are not necessarily clear at the moment."

Kevin sighed as he spoke, "But in my opinion, it was only a matter of time. They've been too blatant, risking everything to understand history, and neglecting their own value in the process."

Dragon's gaze grew serious: "Did the Navy discover something?"

Kevin shook his head slightly: "No. He's just a major at headquarters right now. Sengoku only saw him once from afar when he took over. How could he possibly have access to such secrets? But Spandam might know something."

At this point, Kevin interrupted Dragon's request and said, "What I need now is to send these archaeologists to the Revolutionary Army. They don't understand their own value, but we need them."

Kevin looked at Dragon: "We don't have the strength to confront the World Government head-on right now, and the scholars of Ohara will never listen to our advice. You should know their character."

With a frown, Dorrag nodded.

He knew how stubborn those scholars were, risking their lives every year to go out to sea, searching for history even when they were starving.

He came across a book that was almost rotten, and he could pester it shamelessly for a month before finally buying it with all the Berries he had on him, ten thousand.

Dorlag's personal experience—that's what a scholar is all about.

"I'll give them a heads-up, and we'll also have someone keeping an eye on the West Sea area."

Big Bear then asked, "If that's the case, then if something happens to Ohara, perhaps we can act independently."

Kevin nodded: "That's what I think too. In three days, at Water Seven, I'll create a good opportunity for you to make your move. Also, the ship behind the warship is equally important. Uncle Bear, remember to take pictures of our base in the first half."

"clear."

"clear."

……

Three days passed quickly.

Coincidentally, the day after encountering the expedition team, Kevin's first target in his graduation assessment was encountered, and the battle was resolved in just ten minutes.

Zephyr chose a target with a good sin value; the pirates on the entire pirate ship all had three-digit sin values, and he extracted their souls from them.

Meanwhile, inside the warship's cabin, despite being persuaded by everyone, Olvia remained determined to go her own way, having already prepared to offer herself up to the tiger over the past three days.

But as a result... apart from the marines who brought food down every day, I never saw anyone else.

It wasn't until the warship docked at the port of Water Seven that she realized that the bastard navy man definitely preferred money and was planning to sell their ship first.

then……

Then the cabin door was opened, and a person wearing a white mask forcibly unlocked it, letting the group of people out.

"Who are you? Why did you save us?"

"Where's the navy? They..."

"Quick, quick, go check if our ship is still there!"

"They're right behind the navy warships! Hurry! We need to get out of here!"

……

Kevin was speechless at the chaotic scene.

I remember hearing a statement that all Zoan-type Devil Fruits in this world have a inherited will.

For example, Luffy's Mythical Zoan Nikka form and Yamato's Ooku Majin are the most obvious manifestations of will.

So perhaps the Tree of Om Mani Padme Hum is the reason why generations of scholars have been so devoted, both brave and foolish?

Kevin watched as a chaotic group of people rushed onto the exploration ship, heading straight for the cabin where records were stored.

Only Olvia and the bespectacled man remained.

"Get on the ship quickly, get into the cabin!"

The two exchanged a glance, and Olvia gave a slight bow: "No matter what, I must thank you for your help."

Kevin checked the time: "If we don't leave now, the Navy will arrive and you won't be able to leave. That guy is very strong, and we might not be able to win."

The bespectacled man also bowed: "I am extremely grateful."

The two quickly boarded the ship.

Big Bear, standing next to Kevin, finally understood. It really was true... history was more important than life.

"Shall we begin?"

Exhaling, Kevin held the chicken talisman in his hand, and a surge of heat began to flow through his body.

The next moment, the exploration ship floated and rose into the air.

At the port, the boatmen of Water Seven were stunned by this scene.

Some of them, who frequently read newspapers, dropped their tools and ran, shouting as they went, "The Great Pirate is here! Shiki the Golden Lion is in Water Seven! Quickly notify Marine Headquarters!"

This scene almost made Kevin burst out laughing, but it made Skeeter take the blame.

The ship floated in the air, and the scholars in the cabins swayed from side to side, not knowing what was happening for a moment.

"Uncle Xiong, please help me."

Kuma nodded, then leaped up, using the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit to make him level with the ship.

With a single slap, a bubble shaped like a bear's paw enveloped the ship, which sped away.

Thanks to the Chicken Talisman, the ship's weight was reduced to a minimum, which is the main reason why the Paw-Paw Fruit's power could knock it away.

"Uncle Bear, you should go first. If the Navy hears about Shiki's whereabouts, they might send an admiral-level force to Water Seven, which is very close to Marineford."

Big Bear nodded: "Then be careful, see you in a bit."

After Big Bear left, Kevin also disappeared from the spot.

The books of Ohara contain the technology of that ancient kingdom, from which Vegapunk's future Egg Point Island and the Mother Spark originated.

The value of scholars is self-evident.

……

This struggling author is begging all the big shots to keep reading!
