--- Chapter 323 ---
A great white shark broke down several waves. It moved like a white flash and left behind a sonic boom.
"We will reach Ohara in minutes." Tian Meng said while glancing at the radar on her control table.
"I will start lowering the speed."
Huo Yuhao nodded, "Mm."
He silently meditated while thinking about his next steps after leaving the Tiny World. Even though he has erected the Anti-Divine Barrier around the Douluo Planet, Tang San is stubborn.
On top of that, Tang San would become desperate after their fight.
If possible, Huo Yuhao wanted to exploit Tang San's desperation. Who knows? Huo Yuhao might be able to destroy the balance in the Douluo Divine Realm.And Huo Yuhao wouldn't be alone in this matter.
There are also Spirit Beasts led by the Silver Dragon King in the Star Dou Forest that Huo Yuhao could use as a diversion or meat shield. He doesn't care if he is being cruel with such thoughts.
"Master, Master?" Kuina called Huo Yuhao.
"We have arrived at Ohara."
"Sister Meng is currently hiding Wave Crusher underwater."
Huo Yuhao blinked, "Okay."
"Who wants to visit Ohara?"
"Me!" 4x.
Four of them responded immediately.
"Who wants to stay?"
Silence struck the control room.
Tian Meng whistled and played with her pirate hat, coughing like she had done nothing wrong.
"Everyone, it is, then." Huo Yuhao shook his head helplessly.
After putting Wave Crasher on standby mode, everyone appeared above the seawater and floated in the air. Huo Yuhao used his thoughts to control space with the Spatial Authority, landing on the lush island.
Ohara is not a large island compared to the island Huo Yuhao stayed at in the Stasis Timeline for eight years, but it is spacious. He could see some vegetation and mounds, but what caught his attention was the tree in the island's center.
Even though the Tree of Knowledge was 'recently' planted, the sapling is over ten meters tall and has strong branches with lush green leaves.
There is a faint ancient aura around the Tree of Knowledge, making Huo Yuhao sure it was a Heavenly-type Plan.
It's probably similar to the Ancient Golden Tree in the center of Sea God Lake in Shrek Academy.
However, Huo Yuhao can't be too sure.
[Name: Tree of Knowledge]
[Species: Overseeing Knowledge Tree]
[Age: 11 months]
[Description: The Overseeing Knowledge Tree originated from the Myriad Heaven Realm, possessing the ability to record information from the past, present, and future. All knowledge shall be stored in the Alpha Memory Leaves and can be used to comprehend Concepts faster]
[If Devil Fruit Users ate the Alpha Memory Leaves, they could awaken their Devil Fruit and learn about its Concepts]
"This is amazing..." Huo Yuhao was stunned after reading the Tree of Knowledge's introduction. This tree's worth exceeds that of Mythical Zoans or Enhanced Logias.
He could create an army of Concept Masters with it.
Unfortunately, this Tree of Knowledge is too young. It couldn't produce Alpha Memory Leaves yet.
[The effect will be much better if you make tea using the Alpha Memory Leaves, Host] Evo suddenly remarked.
[So, you should get your hand on the Tree of Knowledge's saplings]
Huo Yuhao nodded giddily, "Yes."
But this information also confused Huo Yuhao.
Did the Celestial Dragons also realize the worth of the Tree of Knowledge, but why did they destroy it in the future?
As Huo Yuhao and others surveyed the island, someone stopped them.
"Halt! Who are you outsiders?" A stern voice welcomed Huo Yuhao. It was a muscular man in a white robe, something ancient Greek people used.
Huo Yuhao stared at the muscular man and smiled, "Hello. We are coming from the faraway land in the name of pieces."
"We don't mean to trespass on the island, but then sense Ancient Aura here."
Huang Qiu'er stood beside Huo Yuhao and added, "Mm, I felt this place holds quite an auspicious atmosphere."
The muscular man frowned, "Ancient Aura? Auspicious."
"Also, my name is Huo Yuhao, nice to meet you." Huo Yuhao added with a friendly tone.
"Huo Yuhao... That's an unusual name."
Huo Yuhao chuckled, "People tend to say when hearing my name."
"I felt deep knowledge from you." The muscular man glanced around the ladies before stopping at Tian Meng for some reason. "Are you perhaps a master scholar?"
Huo Yuhao froze on the spot, 'Oh, no.'
Tian Meng lifted her nose high and ran her mouth, "You can call me Master Meng."
"I'm well-versed in all knowledge of the universe, but the ones I dabble with are Star Counting and Astral Divination."
The muscular man's eyes lit up, "I'm sorry for my lack of insight, Master Meng. You must be coming here after sensing the Tree of Knowledge's presence."
"Umu!" Tian Meng nodded her head in all seriousness.
Huo Yuhao was speechless, 'What are you Umuing for? You don't know shit about the Tree of Knowledge's presence!'
The muscular man bowed, "Master Meng, this little one's name is Garam."
"I'm a Scholar of the Seasky Tribe."
"Beside me, there are sixty other Scholars on the island."
"I see..." Tian Meng rubbed her chin thoughtfully.
"Let's meet them, then."
"Oh, also... Give my friend a tour around the island."
Garam grinned, "Leave it to me."
After saying that, Garama unleashed a power similar to Divine Might but gentler and less oppressive. Soon, a jaguar came and greeted them.
"Rororo~! I'm here!" Said the jaguar who speaks the human language.
"Roro, escort these guests around Scholar Island," Garam ordered calmly. "Also, protect them from the shadows."
Huo Yuhao raised his eyes when Garam mentioned shadows. It couldn't be Phantoms, right?
No, it must be Phantom.
There are no creatures like that in Tiny World.
"Rororo~! Follow me." The jaguar led Huo Yuhao and others around the island.
Tian Meng and Garam went in different directions, talking about random things on their way to the Tree of Knowledge.
The Great Wisdom Sky Dragon winked at Huo Yuhao, 'Don't worry, leave information gathering to me.'
Huo Yuhao sighed and nodded, 'I leave it to you, then.'
They walked around the edge of Scholar Island, or what people in the future called Ohara, and Roro the jaguar also explained a few things.
Apparently, there will be a gathering of Scholars in a few days.
All Scholars in this sea will meet on Scholar Island, discussing many topics and trying to uncover the secrets of this world.
Huo Yuhao didn't think much of their gathering at first, but then the second half of the jaguar's explanation caught his attention.
"Secret of this world?" Huo Yuhao asked the jaguar.
"Yes, Rororo~!" The jaguar nodded. "Those with finite life spans always want to do the impossible."
"Don't you want to know why we exist?"
"What are our roles?"
"The world doesn't just contain land, sea, and sky."
"There is space beyond that azure sky."
Hearing this answer, Huo Yuhao and others are surprised.
They didn't expect people of this time to have such a deep curiosity and sharp sense. To realize you're mere ants in the box is an unbelievable attainment.
But instead of wailing in despair, these Scholars gathered and debated about truth.
Huo Yuhao pondered and asked, "Roro, do you know a Scholar named
Nico Robin?"
"Roro, hmm..." The jaguar thought of something.
"I don't think there is such a person on the island."
"Nor this sea."
"But I heard there was a famous Scholar named Nico Roberta in the outside domain once."
Suddenly, the jaguar's furs stood up.
He stared at the sky solemnly, "It's them, Roro."
"The Shadows are coming."
Huo Yuhao and others stared at the sky, seeing humanoid figures clad in dark armor descent. They had no redeeming features, wore the same heavy armor, and looked very uniform.
"Hurry, climb to my back! We must get out of this place." The jaguar moved his gaze back at them.
Huo Yuhao shook his head, "There is no need."
"Kuina."
"Yes, Master!" Kuina pulled her second katana, Irony. A dark-bladed katana unsheathed, and the atmosphere changed instantly.
She dragged the blade across the air and entered a stance, "One Flower Petal Dance."
"Blood Carving."
Swoosh!
A pair of blue swallow wings flapped on Kuina's back as she disappeared with afterimages, slicing toward the sky with a dead calm expression.
SHING!
A blood flower appeared in the sky.
Kuina carved it with her sword, painting it with the enemy's blood.
She sheathed her katana back, and the sky cleared, leaving no armored Phantom behind.
The jaguar saw this with his jaw dropped on the ground, "Fairy, she's a fairy!"
"Is this a sign of greatness?"
