Because the carnival party was disrupted by an unexpected attack, Carnival City rarely entered martial law for three days.
In the past three days, Yuyuko led her group to a civilian area on the west side of the carnival.
Unlike a normal city, Carnival City is essentially more like a huge amusement park, but it occupies a huge area, has a wide range of businesses, and even has a large number of residential places. But for ordinary civilians, they will still choose to go out of Carnival City and rest in residential areas outside the city that look much more desolate.
Work is work, life is life. Although Carnival City is very good, the food served on tableware wrapped in gold foil is not much better than the food served in broken porcelain bowls. For ordinary people, life is lived in the most frugal way. The simplest life.
They couldn't afford the living expenses in Carnival City, so these residential areas surrounding Carnival City were created.
"And our residential area is actually the most historic in Carnemeia."
Karim suddenly laughed. Her droopy eyelids covered half of her eyes. Her old skin full of age spots made her look a little scary. However, her missing teeth and her kind smile made people forget about this. Some.
"What is that Carnemea?" Yuyuko asked in confusion.
Carnemea, this is the first time Yuyuko heard such a place name in Carnival City.
"Haha, have you really forgotten this name among young people?" Karim smiled, looking a little downcast, but quickly cheered up, "But that's fine, let him pass by this name in the future."
"Carnemea is actually the original name of this island." At this time, a middle-aged uncle reminded.
After hearing this uncle's reminder, Youyouzi understood.
Carnemea is Carnival City, but this is what it was called in the past. After the amusement facilities of Carnival City were built and its reputation spread all over the world, compared with the awkward name of Carnemea, the direct and clear name of Carnemea is more direct and clear. Being anti-customer has become the correct name.
But this kind of thing is nothing new.
Time will change many things, and with these changes, there will always be some things that are taken for granted that will be covered up by new things, and the more unremembered things are, the easier it is to be covered up.
Karim also smiled and said, "Bru, I'm not that stupid. What I was angry about before was that you abandoned our most fundamental things."
Blue scratched his head and felt a little embarrassed, "After all, that legend has been around for almost six hundred years, six hundred years, mother-in-law."
"I've persisted for six hundred years, so what's the point of a few more years? You guys are too young..." Karim shook his head, turned to look at Yuyuko, and then continued to talk about some of the bad things about this island. Things that people know.
The island of Carnemea was originally very low-key on the Grand Line.
It's not that they did it deliberately, but there is nothing noteworthy about this place. If it weren't for the completion of Carnival City, this island might even eventually become a base for pirates.
More than ten years ago, because Roger started the era of great pirates, the vast four-sea area that was most affected was the relatively stable area.
Ranked after the Four Seas are the ordinary islands in the front section of the Great Line, similar to Carnemea.
And there are not many of them. Before Roger started the Age of Discovery, the world government's allies were far from the more than a hundred now. At that time, there were not even a hundred. After all, if it weren't for the raging pirates, how many countries would be willing to let themselves bear such a heavy burden as heavenly gold.
After that, Beifangnan, who had eaten the fruit of the building blocks, stood up. He jumped out of the ordinary people's horizons and spent two years building the prototype of Carnival City with his own strength. Subsequently, in the constant struggle, Carnival City's fame And its reputation gradually increased. In just more than ten years, it has become the behemoth it is now.
At this point, Blue couldn't help but interjected, "Mother-in-law, don't you hate Brother Nan?"
Karim glanced at Blue and said angrily, "Although I don't like that brat, Lady Undine's teachings are always in my ears. The mission only needs to be kept in mind and just go with the flow. You can't be missioned." Trapped. I've always been very optimistic about him at this point."
"Okay, that's it for the simple story. Girls, do you have anything else you want to ask?"
After listening to her mother-in-law’s explanation, Youyouzi did have many questions.
And the biggest question...
"Mother-in-law, your mission?"
"Hehehe" Karim laughed happily, "Sure enough, you young people are interested in these secrets. But although this is not a secret in our village, if you want to know, you still have to ask. Ask Ruby. She is the witch of this generation of wind gods, and she will make the decisions on all related matters."
"Miko?!" Youyouzi couldn't help but exclaimed.
"What's wrong? Are you curious?"
"Why is there a witch here?!"
No wonder Youyouzi was so surprised.
The profession of miko is not a bad profession. In the world of One Piece, it is a special profession unique to Wano.
Of course this is not the most special place.
The responsibilities of the miko in Wano Country and the miko in Blue Star's Neon Kingdom are the same. They are regarded as the dependents of the gods, the people closest to the gods, and the agents of the gods.
However, in Yuyuko's memory, even in Wano, the number of shrine maidens was very rare, and shrine maidens rarely walked around the workshop. The ones people saw most were priests. The most responsible thing is also the funeral.
In the country of Wano, the theory of ghosts is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but the words of the gods have been somewhat ignored. Except for the torii gates all over the country, the Shinto culture of Wano has declined.
"Oh, little guy, do you know about mikos?" Yuyuko's reaction made Karim's eyes light up. Normally when she said about mikos, others would only think that this is a characteristic of Carnemea, but Yuyuko's reaction clearly showed that she had been exposed to this kind of thing. kind of things.
"I'm from the country of Wano. Do you know anything?" Yuyuko asked.
But Karim shook his head, "I don't know. The only people who know about this are those who serve the gods."
He pointed at Ruby who was unconscious behind a big man.
"Furthermore, Ruby's parents, the previous miko and priest, have died unexpectedly. Although she still has a younger sister, she should be the only one who has the right to know those things now."
"Let's go to Tianlan Shrine."
After listening to Karim's words, Yuyuko's heart was in turmoil. There was obviously some strange connection between this place and the country of Wano. However, even though she was curious, Yuyouzi could only suppress the horror in her heart, and chose to follow after communicating with her friends.
Reiju and Keya, who were following the team at the end, exchanged glances and then quietly communicated.
"Keya, did you find any useful information?"
Keya thought for a moment and said, "There is news that is difficult for me to judge. Last night, before the assassination began, the Carnival City guards blocked the access to the port and checked at all levels."
Reijiu paused slightly, a little surprised, "Did this prince expect something big to happen?"
Keya shook his head, "Probably not. They are looking for someone, and we know that person."
Reiju frowned, "Do we know each other?"
After just thinking for a moment, Reiju responded, "Sidnia?"
Keya nodded.
"Why?"
Keya spread his hands.
"Well, it seems there is definitely something wrong with this Sidnia."
"Who says it's not Nan~"
At the front of the team, under the leadership of Karim, everyone passed through a forest and saw a passage leading to a high place in the forest on the plank road in the forest.
I was slightly stunned when I saw the torii gates lined up in the passage. Now she is becoming more and more confused about the relationship between this place and Wano Country.
Thinking of the mission that Blue had mentioned inadvertently before, Yuyouzi only felt that this place was really full of mysteries.
A legend passed down for six hundred years?
But thinking of what Karim said, Yuyuko restrained her temper.
The secret can only be known after Ruby wakes up.
And this wait is three days.
…
On the Great White, the bear has been waiting here for three days.
Watching the dock bear resuming shipping in an orderly manner, the dock bear was very calm.
Of course, it’s not completely without feeling.
"I remember I said see you tomorrow, why don't they come back?" Xiong thought in confusion.
He originally just wanted to confirm one thing before dealing with Youyuko's side of things. Leaving that sentence was just to leave a sense of urgency to Yuyouzi and the others, which was equivalent to saying, "Xiao Huozhi, I'm keeping an eye on you~". Under such circumstances, normal people would go back to the ship to confirm, so that’s why I said “see you tomorrow.”
But is Yuyuko a normal person?
Yuyouzi, who had long known that Xiong was one of her own, did not regard Xiong's words as a threat at all, but as ordinary comrades' chat, "See you tomorrow," just a polite word.
