Chapter 25: The Reverse Mountain And Logue Town
Tea Dolphin: Why do I always feel like my teacher when facing this eight-year-old boy.
Garp: It's not just you, The kid gives this feeling to everyone.
Fujitora: You are not alone.
The tea dolphin's words resonated with many people.
Facing people like Roja, every word and deed makes people feel the guidance of a learned person.
It seems to be guiding you little by little to understand the world in a correct way.
To be honest, this process of establishing a cognitive method for the world, even when they were learning knowledge when they were young, they never faced those teachers.
Whitebeard: Speaking of which, what was it like on Reverse Mountain?
Seeing Roja and the others about to climb the Reverse Mountain, Whitebeard couldn't help being curious.
Speaking of which, Whitebeard himself never went to four blues, he has not passed through the Reverse Mountain.
Because his hometown, Sphinx, itself is an island in the New World.
Golden Lion: It's even more impossible for me to know.
Roger: I don't know, I haven't traveled Reverse Mountain, ask Garp, Marines often need to go to the four seas from the Grand Line.
Garp: Before Vegapunk invented the seastone warship, generally speaking, Marines of my level did not often return to the four seas.
Garp: If you do go back, like the Mariejois, it's via a mechanical elevator that can board the Red Line, and then change to a warship on the other side.
It's just that the lifting device here is not comparable to the bubble lift at Mariejois, and the efficiency of transporting people is very slow. Otherwise, why would we establish a Marine branch system?
It's not because the Grand Line is too difficult to go to the four seas. As for how the merchants cross the Red Line, I really don't know much about it.
Other Marine mid-level and high-level players are almost the same as Garp.
Everyone looked at the giant screen, at this moment Roja and the others were ready to go.
["Have the guests rested?" When the captain of the caravan arrived in front of Roja, even Roja couldn't help being stunned for a moment]
[Because behind the captain, there is a group of giant snails, the size of these snails is like a small house. ]
[In front of the shells of the giant snails, seats were installed one by one, and the top of the shells on their backs was partially broken. ]
["What is this?" Roja looked at the creature. ]
["Ah, this is a special creature on the Red Line called giant bivalve snails. They have a gentle temperament and will not attack people, and they can also travel on steep mountain walls."]
["As long as the outer shell is broken and the top is smashed, a large amount of goods can be loaded in. This is also an important means for us to transport goods to other sea areas."]
["Otherwise, it would be impossible to carry the cargo across the Reversing Mountain with manpower alone." The captain explained. ]
["I see." Roja lightly jumped into the air, looked down from a height, and indeed saw a hard shell inside the snail. The two shells are like a big cargo bucket, which can hold a lot of goods. ]
[And with this structure, even if you encounter a steep place, you don't have to worry about the cargo falling out. ]
["The world is so big, there are so many wonders." Roja couldn't help but marvel, and took out his notebook to record it. ]
[Businessmen's wisdom is indeed powerful sometimes. In order to pursue their interests, whether it is exploratory, their action power will be stronger than ordinary people. ]
[These giant bivalve snails are obviously Trained in a systematic way, and then rented out. From discovery, to capture and domestication to large-scale breeding, this is not an easy task]
[Roja and Fujitora sit on the bivalve snails, and the shells of the bivalve snails are filled with goods, and they crawl leisurely on the upside-down mountain]
[The Reverse Mountain is not so easy to climb, because some places are slopes that can be moved forward, and some places are simply impassable. ]
[They followed the route explored by an unknown number of businessmen, moving forward in a tortuous way. Even if there are giant snails in the whole process, it is not easy.]
[Half a month later, Roja and his party followed the caravan and finally crossed the Reverse Mountain and came to the East Blue sea area. There is also a gathering place jointly built by merchants at the foot of the Reverse Mountain on the East Blue side]
[Cross-sea trade is not so much a matter of cross-sea caravans, but rather an alliance of merchants]
[For example, Roja learned about the mortgage of the ship from here. The ship of the caravan they are in is mortgaged at the inverted mountain corner of South Blue, so they can rent the ship here in East Blue]
[This involves complicated mortgage conversion and insurance compensation system, which Roja clearly records in the notebook]
[At the same time, he also recorded the transaction records of some caravan items, what price can South Blue's special products sell in East Blue]
[After the caravan's ship brought to Logue town, Roja Fujitora and the others officially bid farewell to the caravan]
[Especially Roja, during this period of time, he has already had a good relationship with most of the people in this caravan, and most of them are reluctant to say goodbye to him at this moment]
[The port of Logue town, Roja and Fujitora disembark]
[They did not leave in a hurry, but stayed here]
[Roja took Fujitora, and first investigated and inquired at the port of Logue town for a long time, and thoroughly figured out the countries and islands that Logue town can lead to]
[The port of Logue town is very developed, ten routes can connect almost all the large countries and islands in East Blue]
[Recorded the port routes and the corresponding country islands, Roja also specially bought a simplified chart of East Blue and marked it on the map]
[After recording everything, Roja took Fujitora and stayed in Logue town for the time being]
[During the days in Logue town, Roja went out to investigate the records every day]
[He can communicate with some Marine soldiers, as well as businessmen, workers, farmers, children, and even gangsters and pirates, and become one with them]
[Strong affinity and equal and sincere treatment make him invincible, and as for some pirate gangsters who cannot communicate in words, Roja will not be stingy with his fists]
[Relying on the dual communication of language and fist, Roja collected a lot of information from Logue town in just five days]
[The three meals a day habits and approximate prices of people in Logue town, as large as the situation in each country in East Blue, and the overall situation in East Blue, etc.]
Everyone in the chat room watched Roja build up his knowledge of Logue town from nothing.
In just five days, through simple communication, plus paper and pen records.
Let Roja build up an incredibly detailed record of information.
The recording method is astonishing.
Even a person who just came to Logue town and doesn't know anything about Logue town can learn about every bit of Logue town in detail through this record.
Before this, they had never seen someone who could record a place's information in such a concise and self-contained recording method.
