Chapter 408: We Came Here

Seven hundred million belli was not an exorbitant price for high aristocrats and members of royal families, but even for them it was excessive to spend such a sum on games and entertainment.

People who were going to buy this devil fruit for their wives were not willing to pay such a sum for it, so Doflamingo became the winner of the auction.

Yeruashi stretched out his hand, taking this devil fruit, and began to examine it carefully, with a sky blue glow in his pupils.

"Are you really interested in this devil fruit?"

Stussy said with a smile, "With your looks and charisma, after eating this devil fruit, all the women in the world will be at your feet..."

"There's no need for such a thing."

Yeruashi casually replied.

According to Yeruashi, his charm has already reached its limit.

If you designate the charm limit at 100 units, then increasing it to 120 units by eating the Mero Mero no Mi won't necessarily have at least some effect.

On the one hand, I wanted to get Mero Mero no Mi to study the essence of the devil fruit and, on the other hand, I thought that Mero Mero no Mi was perfect for Hancock.

Without Mero Mero no Mi, Hancock's charm level would probably not compare to the original.

"Come on."

Yeruashi didn't delve too deeply into studying the devil fruit. After a cursory inspection, he put away the Mero Mero no Mi and left the auction house with Robin and the others.

After leaving the auction house, they returned to the study of the ancient architecture.

Deep in the ancient ruins of the Kingdom of Prodence, there was a poneglyph, but since it contained no significant information, the World Government paid no attention to it.

Perhaps they simply didn't want to deal with it, because poneglyphs consisted of a unique material that exceeded even kairoseki in hardness and strength, and simply could not be destroyed.

"This describes the history of this realm..."

Robin carefully read the text engraved on the poneglyph.

At the same time, Stussy looked thoughtfully at the poneglyph.

He knew that poneglyphs had always been a headache for the World Government.

Although some of the poneglyphs had been collected, so far it had not been possible to find a way to destroy them, but more importantly, many poneglyphs were in the hands of extremely troublesome people like Kaido Beast, Big Mom and the rest.

Klang!

Doflamingo approached the poneglyph, creating several thin strands on his fingertips, then covered them with the armament will and waved his palm.

Many sparks flew sideways, but not a scratch was left on the poneglyph.

"As expected, no trace..."

Doflamingo was not surprised.

He had encountered the poneglyph in the past and tried to destroy it, but he couldn't leave a scratch on it either.

As a former Celestial Dragon, he has a lot of secret information, including the knowledge that the poneglyphs were created by the ancestors of the artisans of the Wano Country, but the World Government has still not been able to destroy them, no matter how hard he tried.

On this poneglyph, the text was engraved on only two sides, and the remaining half, apparently intended to record the events of an Void century, was never completed for some reason.

"Robin."

Yeruashi stared at the poneglyph in silence for a moment, then turned to Robin, "You haven't forgotten the history of the Void Century, have you?"

"Of course not..."

Robin nodded towards Yeruashi.

Yeruashi smiled, "I think you can translate the story into text like this... since we looked here, we have to leave something behind."

Robin shuddered at Yeruashi's words, "Sir, are you really suggesting that I write the events of an Void century in an Void part of the poneglyph?"

Stussy and Doflamingo slowly turned their heads, looking at each other.

Recording the events of an Void century on a poneglyph is a blatant crime against the World Government, which under other circumstances would have been stopped at all costs by the members of SP-0, but in this situation it is clearly impossible....

Most likely, there is not a single person in the entire world who can stand in Yeruashi's way.

However, even the World Government could not find a way to damage the poneglyphs, moreover, Whitebeard's full-strength strike also had no effect.

The poneglyph's resistance overcomes everything in this world, there is no way to engrave text on it.

"What do you say?"

Yeruashi smiled at Robin.

Robin thought for a moment and nodded, "Of course, it's worth writing the history of the Void century, but judging from the known information, no one in the world is able to scratch a poneglyph..."

"It's not a problem."

A jet of chakra gushed out from Yeruashi's body and concentrated in the air in front of him, forming a black sphere.

After that, the Truth Quest Ball began to twist, taking the shape of a small black stick.

With a wave of Yeruashi's hand, the entire black stick, except for the tip, was wrapped in a layer of golden senchakra, so that anyone could hold it securely.

"Take this and write it down."

Yeruashi waved his hand once more, causing the black stick to fly gently towards Robin.

As Robin looked at the approaching black stick, she instinctively sensed great danger and unconsciously stepped back half a step, but then pulled himself together and reached out, carefully taking the black stick by the side shrouded in a soft golden glow.

Robin looked hesitantly at the black stick and walked slowly to the clean side of the poneglyph, then thought a bit and raised her hand, beginning to write the events of the Void century.

Buzz!

Initially, Robin thought that Yeruashi had given him a black stick to write with a special indelible paint, but to her surprise, the tip of the black stick penetrated the poneglyph without any resistance.

Robin immediately removed her hand to get a better look at the place where the poneglyph came in contact with the black stick.

Unexpectedly, the black stick left a small hole in its surface!

"How...how is this possible..."

Stussy exclaimed in shock, looking at the small hole formed.

As a member of SP-0, she knew very well that in the 800 years of World Government rule, not a single instance of damage to the poneglyph had been documented!

What is this black stick?

Robin quickly regained her composure and diligently began filling the empty parts of the poneglyph with text.

Before long.

In the center of the fourth side of the poneglyph, Robin left a final sentence.

"...we filled in the empty part of this poneglyph in 1504 according to the general maritime calendar."

"Traveler Yeruashi and Nico Robin were here."

"Done."

Robin double-checked the poneglyph for errors and nodded with satisfaction, then went to Yeruashi and carefully handed him the black stick.

While writing the text on the bottom of the poneglyph, she accidentally touched the ground beneath it with the black stick, as a result of which the sand and part of the stone disappeared without a trace, without a single sound and resistance.

According to this, we can conclude that the black stick is not made of a special material that can leave traces on the poneglyph, but of a material much more terrifying than the poneglyph!

"Great..."

Yeruashi took the black stick from Robin with a smile and waved his hand, securing the poneglyph in place with the seal of the Level of Six Paths.

There shouldn't be a person in this world who can remove the seal of the Level of Six Paths, so no one will be able to move this poneglyph.

This is somewhat similar to the Stone Tablet of the Uchiha Clan, left by the Sage of the Six Paths.

The poneglyph will always exist here.

"Ah, you had a hard day today, thank you for the guided tour."

Yeruashi looked at Doflamingo and smiled, "Here we say goodbye, but don't forget the cursed sword, Doffy."

Doflamingo took a deep breath, barely calming his emotions, and said, "I'll try to get it as soon as possible, but how can I contact you?"

"I'm going to Wano Country, just get him there."

Yeruashi looked at Robin and put his hand on her shoulder, then instantly disappeared with her.

Silence.

Next to the poneglyph, only the surprised Stussy and Doflamingo were left, who couldn't even understand how Yeruashi and Robin left this place.

They slowly started to recover only a few minutes after Yeruashi left.

An ordinary person may not be able to fully understand what it means to be able to leave traces on a poneglyph, but Doflamingo and Stussy were able to fully realize this.

From what happened, we can draw one conclusion for sure..... that Yeruashi is capable of destroying a poneglyph!

From their point of view, this was a much more significant and terrifying event than the complete destruction of John's Pirates some time ago!

Doflamingo stared at the text engraved on the poneglyph, remembering that terrifying aura coming from the black stick created by Yeruashi: "Even a poneglyph... worthy of the Nearest Man to God..."

"Closest Man to God..."

Stussy took a deep breath.

If she thought about it, the power and means demonstrated by Yeruashi during the destruction of the Holy Land of Marijoa and Marinford, as well as that terrifying black stick that could easily leave traces on the poneglyph, were far beyond human capabilities.

At that moment, Stussy realized why even the World Government was forced to back down before this man.

Maybe the Traveler isn't the closest to God, but.... He is a true God!
