Chapter 348
Before parting, Jessica suddenly stopped everyone and instructed: "The humidity in the air has increased significantly, it may rain, everyone try to hurry."
Carmen had never seen Jessica's ability to see the sky, looked up at the sky, and said strangely: "No, the weather is still so good." Although
the other partners believed Jessica, they couldn't help but have some doubts when they saw that the bright sun was still high in the sky, and there was no sign of a change in the sky.
Jessica was unimpressed and took out a round barometer from her pocket, also just bought in Rogue Town.
She asked everyone to wait for a while, and after watching the work for a while, she said very surely: "Just this moment, the air pressure has dropped a lot, this is a sign of a storm, everyone better return to the ship early." Everyone
looked grim and busy.
The urban planning of Rogue Town is designed as the most common cross-street layout, interspersed with several diagonal side streets, and the intersection of the four east, west, south and north streets is the core area of the city - the central square.
The central square has been expanded several times, it is no longer what it used to be, it covers a large area, if there are major festivals, all kinds of celebrations and sacrifices, it will inevitably be held here, and even the naval parade ceremony of the entire East China Sea has been held here many times.
And because the previous One Piece King Roger died here, it became even more famous, becoming one of the most important tourist attractions in Rogue Town and even the entire East China Sea, similar to the thousand-year-old scenic spots in another life of Hanan.
Hanan and Akin stood on the periphery of the square, looking around.
The square is lined with shops and a variety of goods, and at this time, it is just noon, and it is full of people, very lively, many tourists from other places, speaking various local dialects, wearing various costumes, touring around and checking in.
Hanan even saw a team similar to a tour group, led by a guide holding a flag, taking pictures everywhere, pointing and making noise all the way.
Hanan was quite interesting, and a familiar feeling welled up in his heart, as if he had arrived at a tourist attraction in another life, so he took Akin into a team and followed along to listen to the guide's explanation.
The tour guide was a young woman, average in appearance, but very amiable, she also saw Akin and the two, obviously this situation, not the first time encountered, and did not express anything.
"Look," the guide said, pointing to the central area on the east side of the square, "that's the town hall of Rogue, built for hundreds of years. Hanami
looked over, a masonry building with an orange fa??ade, only two floors, but magnificent and long bays.
It is close to hundreds of meters, each floor is more than ten meters high, facing this side of the square, every interval of about ten meters, there is a thick square stone pillar for load-bearing purposes.
"The central square was not so wide before, and the expansion was in 1498, that is, twenty-two years ago, and it took less than half a month to build its current size.
The female tour guide saw that the tourists did not have a special reaction, and continued: "The purpose at that time was for an unprecedented grand
ceremony," which really attracted the attention of the tourists, and they all asked: "Oh? what ceremony?
celebration?" The tour guide looked at the city hall, and his voice gradually muffled, "In order to execute the last One Piece 'Gal D. Roger'!"
"I came to Rogue to see here. "
Tourists were buzzing.
The tour guide nodded in satisfaction, "You see, the world's most famous execution table is right ahead.
"Everyone heard the prestige, in front of the city hall, stood a high platform, all wooden building, about ten meters high, a total of four floors, the top is a square wooden execution platform, can accommodate four or five people at the same time.
At the same time, this execution platform also represents the sanctity of the world government, and represents the supreme majesty of the navy that maintains world peace and protects the lives and property of the broad masses of the people!
The tour guide is highly professional and has a deep understanding of allusions and history, and when he talks about this, his expression is solemn, his voice is sonorous, and his tone is also yin and yang, which is fascinating.
While leading everyone forward, she continued to explain: "Have you noticed that this execution platform has four floors, with a hollow inside, and each layer is fixed with two wide wooden boards at the junction in each direction for support. "
Tourists are not interested in the structure of the building, they are whispering, imagining the grandeur of the year, only hating that they have no personal experience, the female guide saw no one, a little embarrassed for a while, coughed twice.
After all, he and Ah Jin were pure white, so he gave the tour guide a step and asked, "What is this saying?" The tour guide
nodded and smiled at Yu Nan, and said loudly to the tourists: "Everyone look carefully, the crossed wooden plank is a big fork pattern."
?? represents death, represents the end, and serves as a wake-up call for posterity.
Everyone suddenly realized, and Hanan nodded secretly.
About twenty meters from the execution table, everyone had to stop, the flow of people in front became more and more dense, the space was gradually crowded, and people from all over the world came to Rogue Town, all wanting to see the last mark of a generation of One Piece up close.
Hanan looked up, a feeling of admiration, oily, looked at it for a while, suddenly felt that it was wrong, although the execution table is high, it is a simple structure.
The municipal buildings standing behind it are solemn, not only taller, but also larger and grander, in stark contrast.
Hanan was secretly amused, no wonder the execution platform was built so rudimentarily, but the world government took great pains to highlight its authority.
The tour guide is still introducing the allusions to the visitors, mostly about the exploits of the world government and navy, and Hanan is out of interest, and the sky is far away.
Indeed, as Jessica said, dark clouds gradually appeared, and it seemed that the sky would change, so he beckoned Akin and walked out.
After walking a few steps, there was a sudden sound of surprise behind him, and then someone exaggerated and shouted, "Look, someone climbed on
the execution table!" Hanan turned his head and looked, although it was far away, but he could not see who it was, and he couldn't help but twitch the corner of his eye, on the execution table, it was an old acquaintance - straw hat Luffy.
I saw him wearing the iconic straw hat, red shoulders, blue cropped pants, straw shoes, one hand flat on his forehead, looking around, looking around, looking at the top of the mountain.
"Straw hat boy, immediately, give me down immediately!" a
group of men in red police uniforms rushed under the execution table, led by a middle-aged man with a megaphone, shouting at Luffy in anger.
