“Is this the Tajira Wolf? The country on the bridge that was born 700 years ago?”Gion looked at the slaves busy on the bridge with a complicated look.

The construction of this bridge started 700 years ago. Most of the people in the country were people from countries that refused to join the World Government and criminals. People were forced to build the bridge hard every day.

Gion remembered Wuming’s description of the Tajira Wolf in the diary.

The diary said four hundred years, because that was 300 years ago.

“”Where were those stone slabs found?” Gion asked.

The supervisor next to him listened and pointed to the broken bridge not far away and said:”It’s there. We found those stone slabs in the ruins.”

Gion frowned, then continued to ask:”Are there any other clues?”

“”No.”

The supervisor shook his head decisively.

Gion, who could not get any information from him, did not embarrass the supervisor, but walked towards the broken bridge curiously.

“It’s just an ordinary ruin, nothing special.……”

Just as Gion was about to leave, her observation Haki began to frantically warn, and the simple Gion immediately looked towards the source of danger.

Then Gion turned around and saw an old man in the crowd.

The old man seemed to know that Gion had discovered him, so he turned and walked away.

The years have left deep marks on this old man, as if every wrinkle is a story of the passage of time.

He is thin and gaunt, like a weathered branch, and his skinny state makes people feel pity. His back is slightly hunched, as if he has carried too much weight from the past. His steps are staggering, and every step seems particularly strenuous, but reveals an unyielding tenacity.

His hands, with bulging veins, are like dry tree roots, tightly grasping the cane in his hands, and the cane has become another fulcrum for him to communicate with the world. His facial features are profound, his eye sockets are deep, and his eyes are shining with wisdom and vicissitudes. Even if he doesn’t say much, his eyes seem to be able to tell thousands of words.

“This old man… why does he give me a very dangerous feeling?” Gion looked at the old man’s back nervously.

Perhaps out of curiosity, or perhaps because the old man had no ill intentions, Gion stopped the old man.

Gion hurriedly shouted:”The old man with the cane, can you wait a moment?”

The old man stopped after hearing this, and then turned around and looked at Gion with difficulty.

The old man asked kindly:”Navy girl, are you calling me old man?”

The old man’s smile and tone were obviously very kind, but after coming to the old man, Gion felt a chill from the other party. Gion, who came to the old man, couldn’t wait to say:”I want to ask you something.”

As if the old man had expected this scene, he asked in an affirmative tone:”Is it about Chinese characters?”

Hearing this, Gion’s pupils shrank, and then he looked at the old man in front of him vigilantly.

“How did he know? This old man is definitely not simple!”

Gion, whose heart was already in turmoil, said:”Yes, can we talk alone?”

“Come with me.”

The old man led the way tremblingly.

After a while, the old man brought Gion to a tent.

It was a shabby tent, which looked putty-covered, and it was also a small tent.

The old man asked slowly:”Are you a pilgrim who came here to make a pilgrimage following the footsteps of the saint, or a peeper who came to explore the secrets of the saint?”

“What do you mean?”Gion looked at the old man in confusion.

Seeing Gion’s reaction, the old man sighed.

“It seems that it is neither of them.”

After the old man finished speaking, he slowly took out a worn notebook from the box.

“This is what the saint asked me to teach you.”

Gion took the notebook curiously, opened it and found Chinese characters inside. Gion’s pupils shrank, and then he looked at the old man in front of him in horror.

“Who are you?” Gion asked cautiously

“Me? I am just a servant of the saint, but you can call me the old bridge keeper. Leave here, your destiny is not here.”

After the old man finished speaking, a breeze blew by.

Seeing that there was no one in front of him, Gion hurriedly ran out of the tent and tried to find the figure of the old man, but no matter how hard he looked, he could not find the figure of the old man.

“Even the Observation Haki can be avoided, the legendary Observation Killing?” Gion murmured.

The old man guarding the bridge? What on earth does he want to do?

Looking at the diary in his hand, Gion’s heart was full of melancholy, without any joy of discovering Chinese characters again.

“With this diary, I should be able to hand in the task, right?” Gion couldn’t help but think.

Gion left the Tajira Wolf with the diary, but the news that Gion got a mysterious diary did not escape the World Government.

When Gion returned to the Navy Headquarters with the diary, the World Government’s agent was already waiting for her there with a Den Den Mushi.

The World Government’s agent relayed the story expressionlessly:”I heard that you brought back a diary? The Five Elder Stars ordered you to translate the contents above.”

Gion couldn’t help but glance at Marshal Sengoku next to him after hearing this.

Sengoku said:”Lieutenant General Gion, you just have to follow orders!”

Gion nodded helplessly, feeling depressed.

If he had known this would happen, he should have translated the diary on the way and then thrown it away.

Although he felt a little helpless, Gion had to obey the order and opened the diary to start translating the contents above.
