Chapter 572: I'm talking about Pluto, what's your reaction?
The fact that Alabasta hides the historical text should not be known to others. It is a big oversight that Jackie Chan saw it this time.
It’s not that Cobra doesn’t trust the Amber Tour Group, but knowing more is not necessarily a good thing.
The destruction of O'Hara happened twelve years ago. Cobra didn't want to repeat the same mistake, nor did he want to implicate his friends.
Fortunately, after being persuaded by Zhang Da, Binz started to train hard and did not come back with them. Otherwise, Cobra would have to consider his identity as a navy and think about countermeasures.
Cobra turned and gave orders to the guards: "Stay here and don't let anyone else get close to the Funeral Hall."
"yes!"
In the end, the only ones who went with Cobra were Jackie Chan, Zhang Daye and the five little ones who had done something wrong. Tom and Altria stayed in the orchard, and were in a state of enjoying themselves so much that they didn't want to leave.
"Why did you think of digging up the burial temple?" Zhang Da asked in a low voice while looking at the five little ones who were following closely.
Weiwei said, "Because I wanted to dig out a secret base, everyone came with me."
"There's no need to dig the burial hall when digging the base. You know what that is, right?" Zhang Da also expressed that he couldn't understand Weiwei's behavior of taking her good sister to dig up her own ancestral grave.
He also glanced at Xia Lulu with an expression that said, 'Why are you fooling around too?'
Xia Lulu blushed a little: "We didn't know that digging a hole from the open space outside the palace could lead to the basement under the Funeral Hall ..."
"Because we can't dig around in the palace. If we damage it, Father and Uncle Long will be angry. So..." Weiwei felt a little aggrieved. "It's clearly just an ordinary open space. I used to play there often. How could I have imagined that there would be..."
Generally speaking, no one dares to dig so close to the palace, and usually no one even dares to get close.
There is nothing wrong with Vivi playing there, and Cobra will not deliberately stop her. That would be an act of covering up one's own guilt, and the secrets there will be told to her sooner or later.
But he never expected that Vivi was no longer the same as before. Her destructive power was completely different between after eating the Sand-Sand Fruit and before.
Not to mention a basement that is more than ten meters deep, even if it is deeper, it would not be difficult for her. Moreover, no matter how hard the bricks, tiles or stones are, as long as she is willing, she can easily dig a hole out.
The power of "erosion" from the Sand-Sand Fruit is very unreasonable.
As they were talking, they arrived at the 'crime scene'.
I saw that a corner of the funeral hall had collapsed completely, and the walls and roof were damaged over a large area.
A few dozen meters away, in an open space, there was a circular hole wide enough for two people to enter and exit side by side. Not far from the hole was a pile of sand. That was where Weiwei's construction project began.
Led by Weiwei, everyone entered the cave entrance. Inside was a flight of stairs that sloped downwards. It looked like that direction was heading towards the Funeral Hall, but judging by the slope, they shouldn't be able to reach the bottom of the Funeral Hall.
As they walked down to the bottom floor, the light became increasingly dim, and in the end, they could only rely on a few oil lamps to provide light - they had made thorough preparations for digging the hole.
A space the size of a basketball court was dug out below. The sand and soil that were dug out were not all transported out. Instead, Weiwei used her ability to press it to the sides and up and down for reinforcement.
According to them, the vents had not been built yet, so ventilation depended on Wendy's magic, which could be said to be making the best use of her talents.
The problem occurred in the southeast corner of the basement. There was originally sand there, but while digging, a large stone was found.
Weiwei didn't think too much about it. She followed the standard procedure when encountering a huge rock and used the erosion and crushing move.
However, this stone was exactly the wall brick of the basement of the funeral hall. Because Weiwei used too much force, the stone turned into sand and flowed down, and the upper part lost its support and collapsed.
This caused the funeral temple on the ground to suffer as well.
At that time, Weiwei didn't realize what was happening. She called everyone to crawl in through the gap. After reading the main text of history, she prepared to inform Uncle Long.
But after going out and seeing the appearance of the Funeral Hall, his purpose became to find Uncle Long and surrender himself.
After seeing the scene, Cobra breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, fortunately only this place was destroyed."
Weiwei was shocked to see such an abnormal reaction and quickly bowed ninety degrees: "I was wrong! I'm sorry!"
Perona and the others also bowed: "We were wrong, we're sorry!"
"What I mean is, there's actually a mechanism in this basement. If you accidentally break it, the entire basement and the funeral hall will collapse."
The current situation is better than Cobra expected: "But, Weiwei, you really went too far this time."
"Yes, Uncle Long taught us that strength should be used to protect important people and things, and should not be used to show off or destroy." Vivi's self-examination was so profound that Cobra didn't know how to continue teaching her.
After all, the purpose of criticism and teaching is to make children recognize their mistakes and correct them. Now that she understands everything, what should I say?
"Don't do it again." Cobra glanced at Jackie Chan. This young man seemed to be very good at educating children, and it was reassuring to let Vivi follow him.
"You have seen that stone tablet, right?"
Weiwei nodded. "Yes, that's the historical text, right? Why is there a historical text in the palace?"
Cobra first looked around at everyone present, as if to confirm whether there was anyone who could not be trusted.
Zhang Da said with a shrewd look, "This should be your family's secret, right? Let's stay away from it for a while."
"No, since you already know about the existence of this stone tablet, it is already related to this matter." Cobra said, "But I still want you to keep what I am about to say confidential as much as possible."
Jackie Chan's curiosity was piqued. He knew what Cobra meant was related to the origin of the stone tablet. "Please rest assured, we will never reveal it easily."
"Thank you." Cobra said seriously, "Actually, this stone tablet is what Crocodile is looking for. It contains clues about Pluto. It records the location of Pluto!"
“…”
There was a silence, and the expressions on everyone's faces seemed to say, "And then?"
Cobra was silent. This was not right. Why didn’t these people react at all?
"I'm talking about Pluto, Pluto, one of the three ancient weapons that can destroy the world, a terrifying battleship that can sink an island with a single shot!"
Zhang Da also said calmly: "Yes, we have heard of it."
No one is interested in where Pluto is hiding, and they don't need weapons to destroy the world.
If Jackie Chan were a little interested , he would probably just want to know how the battleship came and went, as well as the story of the stone tablet in Alabasta.
