Chapter 199, Message from the Fourth Roadmark Historical Text
Jiuli, Tianyue City.
After instructing Hanafza to take Hareda to visit the distinctive arcades of the Flower City, Bazar returned to his home in the City of the Moon.
As soon as the people entered the city gate, they saw an unexpected purple-haired, masked man carrying bricks and stones.
"—Shimotsuki, why are you here?"
"Shhh!!"
Frost Moon Beef Ball hurriedly raised his index finger.
"Don't call me by my name. My name is now Tsukishimaru!"
Bazel's lips twitched: "I don't care what your name is. Weren't you here to inspect Tianyue City? What are you doing here laying bricks?"
Pulling Bazel into a nearby alley, Shimotsuki Niuwan removed his face mask and chuckled, scratching his head.
"I forgot to bring any money when I left in a hurry."
"Having finally reached Oden Castle by eating wild game, we need to find a way to fill our stomachs first."
"You can get 1 silver coin immediately just by moving 200 bricks. This is a very profitable job."
"I'm thinking of earning enough money to survive first before inspecting this place."
The mighty Queen of Bells has come to Tianyue City to make a living by laying bricks.
Bazel suddenly felt like he was dreaming.
Shouldn't it be that Shimotsuki Ushimaru was furious when he saw that Tengetsu City was implementing the concept of de-aristocratization, and that he drew his sword and caused a scene?
How did I suddenly become a bricklayer?
"Where are you?! Tsukishimo-maru, are you slacking off?!"
"Do you still want your money?! If you don't do it, there are still many people in line!"
"I'm coming right away! I just really need to pee!"
Before leaving, Shimotsuki Ushimaru glared at Bazel and warned, "Don't you dare call me by my real name again!"
Silently watching Shimotsuki Ushimaru continue moving bricks in a humble manner, Bazel shook his head.
"As expected, people with amazing brain circuits can be found in this magical country."
"Why give up a perfectly good reputation to go and do manual labor? Tsk, when did the world become so strange?"
After sighing, Bazel stopped thinking about it and walked out of the alley, passing by Shimotsuki Gyuumaru.
"Do whatever you want; it's perfectly acceptable to look at the changes in a city from the most basic things."
"If you want to join us, you can go to Daming Prefecture anytime. I will talk to Ashi in advance."
"I look forward to your joining us, Frost—Moon Frost Pill."
Shimotsuki Gyuumaru glanced at the man's departing figure but did not reply.
"That's quite an amazing idea. Let me, Shimotsuki Gyuumaru, see for myself just how far you can go—"
"You're slacking off again, kid. If you're not going to work, then get out!"
"Right away!"
Shimotsuki Gyuumaru immediately put on a smiling face and pushed the wheelbarrow loaded with dozens of bricks and stones in the direction Bazel had left.
"I will keep a close eye on you until Oden returns."
Bazel slowed his pace.
"If Oden Castle can become better, I have nothing to say; if the opposite is true..."
The purple-haired man pushed the wheelbarrow away.
"I will gather the power of the Bell Queen and draw my sword to slay you evil spirits."
Bazell did not respond.
He no longer wanted to say anything more to Shimotsuki Gyuumaru, who was working as a laborer.
Don't be fooled by the fact that you can earn 1 silver coin for every 200 bricks you move.
Although the bricks and stones are not heavy, they take a lot of time to travel to and from them.
If one's desire is great enough, it's not impossible to earn enough silver coins, but by the time work is over, the moon will already be high in the sky.
If, at that time, Shimotsuki Ushimaru, exhausted from a long day, still has the energy to sneak into Tengetsu City at night, Bazel will give him a thumbs up.
They could have had better, easier jobs in Daming Prefecture, but instead they chose to come here and carry bricks.
Honestly, Barzel couldn't understand the other person's thought process.
At most, one can only be thankful that Zoro's great-uncle wouldn't get lost.
Otherwise, the construction site would lose another wheelbarrow.
When they returned home, Tianyue, who had already become a wife, had prepared some of Bazel's favorite meals and desserts.
Where did you learn to do these things?
Knowing that Bazel liked to eat at the dining table, Tianyue specially had a complete set of table and chair parts prepared, as well as elegant fresh flowers placed on the table.
"This is the bride's training, something she learned when she was a teenager."
Amatsuki stood with his hands behind his back in front of the table, looking expectantly at the beef cubes that Bazel had picked up.
"It tastes amazing, with a lot of layers of flavor. I never knew you had the talent to become a culinary expert, Shi."
Seeing that her husband liked it, Tianyue finally breathed a sigh of relief.
She learned cooking methods from Wano Country, which dates back 800 years.
Shortly after confirming her relationship with Bazel, she would occasionally consult the ship's cook during the voyage.
Although neither of them were culinary experts, she had heard that Bazel really liked this seemingly rustic pirate cuisine.
Especially those cuts of meat that are rich in fat.
"Oh, right~"
Then, after bringing some fried fish pieces and vegetables from the kitchen, Tianyue Shi finally took off her apron.
"When are you planning to leave? I'll prepare the ingredients for your bento box in advance."
"The cook can make that. Didn't you hire someone to take care of Maria?"
Bazel grabbed the steak with his left hand and tore into it, muttering incoherently.
"Besides, aren't you very busy? How do you have time to cook for me?"
"I've handed things over to them. Kozuki Sukiyaki is making rapid progress. Although his health is still not up to par, he's already able to help."
With the last piece of fruit placed on the table, Tianyue also joined the sweeping sequence.
"Now I only need to grasp the big picture, so I have more free time than at the beginning."
"In addition, everything is in the early stages of change right now, and everyone is still figuring things out. There aren't that many things for me to worry about."
After licking the grease off his fingertips, Bazel inquired about the situation in other towns in Jiuli.
"The capture of the noble warriors of Tianyue City is nearing its end. Rambo said yesterday afternoon that he planned to go for a stroll in the nearby mountains and forests."
"It seems that Ashura Child's movements were too great, and some bandits ran to more distant places."
Bazel nodded in understanding: "Let Rambo handle it. As the vice-leader of the Night Owl Group, it's time for him to prove himself."
C
"Isn't there any trouble in the city? When I came back, I took a walk around the streets and heard some rumors. It seems that some thugs have formed an underground organization."
Tenzuki swallowed the food in his mouth: "You're talking about the Viper Group, right? I've already investigated. It was founded by noble samurai who managed to escape and then returned."
"I've already asked Dongli to handle it. When they get together next time, Dongli will descend from the sky and deliver divine punishment to them."
"It's good that you know what's going on."
In his memory, Amatsuki was a very intelligent girl.
And the facts proved that I was right.
In just over half a month, Tian Yueshi has gone from being nervous and anxious at the beginning to being very comfortable and at ease now.
If this trend continues, I shouldn't encounter any major problems even if I go away for a year or two.
"If I'm leaving—I'm tentatively planning to depart for Dressrosa in mid-May; I'll skip the guards and such."
As he spoke, Bazel took out a slip of paper with the time written on it from his pocket.
Tianyue peeked out curiously to take a look.
"Buena Festa, Invitation to the Pirate Grand Banquet, Year 1495 of the Sea Calendar —"
"It's that warmonger, but why isn't the specific date mentioned?"
"I don't know. This is a message Abel relayed to me. A few days ago, that warmonger somehow got Jin's Den Den Mushi number."
Dropping the bone fragments, Bazel took a towel and wiped the grease off his hands.
His eyes flickered.
"That guy also said he found the Lox Treasure and designated it as the prize for the winner of the grand banquet."
"The treasure of the great pirate Rocks!?"
Tian Yue put down his chopsticks, his eyes filled with horror.
"Bazel, are you sure? Didn't we find that great pirate's treasure before? It's in the Magic Triangle!"
“What kind of treasure is that?” Bazel shook his head. “This time is different, based on the information Buena Festa has revealed so far.”
"I'm afraid this treasure will be even more amazing than what that bastard John offered."
"Because the prize Buena Festa mentioned seems to be connected to the historical text of the road sign."
I possess the Poneglyphs of Fishman Island and Wano Country. One of the remaining two is in Zou, and the whereabouts of the other is unknown.
Kaido previously mentioned that Big Mom had pieces of Poneglyphs. Could these be the Road Poneglyphs that Buena Festa accidentally found after Whole Cake Island was sunk by the Navy?
He casually wiped the grease from the corner of his mouth, his expression shifting.
If this truly is the last piece of historical text on the road sign—
He would definitely have to gamble with all the forces of the beasts.
All the historical texts of the four road signs have been collected, as long as they can be translated smoothly.
So the next plan is to become stronger, strong enough to withstand the attacks of the Knights of God and the Five Elders!
In the following plans—
It means becoming the king of pirates and being the first to reach the finish line.
