*****
It was the eighteenth day of the journey to the top of the western sky.
Suzuki was sitting in the middle of the wooden boat, holding a map of the islands in the West Sea.
He looked at it carefully.
From the island where the transport company was located, he followed the sailing route all the way to the present.
He passed by many islands along the way, and now, the closest island to him was a very famous island in the sea - Ohara!
The island of scholars, the island of knowledge, the holy land of archaeology, etc., are all its nicknames.
When the wooden boat was still a few kilometers away from the island, Suzuki stood up and looked far away, and saw the huge trees on the island.
That was the library with the most scholars and books in the world - the Tree of Knowledge!
There was no doubt that Suzuki was very interested in the things on the island.
The wooden boat sailed towards Ohara Island, and soon he arrived at Ohara Island.
Entering the port, you can see that it is very lively here.
"Come to the Tree of Knowledge, you can visit it for only two thousand berries!"
"Hello, hello, do you want to buy books? This is the latest publication of Ohara's scholars!"
"Come and see, Ohara's local milk, feel the breath of the scholars, drink it and you won't have to worry about your children's studies anymore!"
"Come and see, this is the leaf that fell from the Tree of Knowledge, it is said that sticking it on the forehead can improve your IQ, now it only sells for five hundred berries!"
"."
Many hawkers' voices were noisy in his ears, Suzuki was speechless.
Stepping into Ohara, he felt an unimaginable atmosphere.
Different from the scholarly atmosphere that Suzuki imagined, the people here were very hospitable, and there were people shouting at the pier from time to time.
There were no scholars holding books and reading quietly on the coast, and there were not many people talking about knowledge.
Obviously, Ohara's name was too loud, not only were there many scholars, but the tourism industry was also very developed.
Not only Ohara itself, but also those world-famous scholars, including the Tree of Knowledge, etc., have a very mature series of additional industries.
Those small vendors saw another foreign tourist who came to Ohara and were very enthusiastic.
Suzuki walked on the pier, and from time to time someone would come to his face and sell some strange products.
He would not buy these things, so every time he would look cold and say nothing and walk straight ahead.
Most of these small vendors gave up selling when they saw this.
The remaining few followed Suzuki as he walked farther and farther from the pier, and also chose to give up.
It didn't take long for Suzuki's ears to regain some quietness.
He had already walked out of the port area and came to the place where the residents lived.
There were also many vendors here, but most of them had shops.
At most, they would occasionally shout one or two sentences in front of the shop, attract the attention of the people, and show their presence.
Suzuki walked on this street.
Ohara Island was not very big, and there were not many areas.
Basically, it was the outermost port area. Because of the booming tourism industry, Ohara had four ports.
Except for some coastlines that were not easy to berth, the ports basically surrounded the entire Ohara Island.
Every year, there are many tourists in each port, not only from the local West Sea, but also from the other three major seas, including the Grand Line.
These tourists came to Ohara basically to visit and play, and they were also mostly people who were not short of money.
It is even said that a new port will be built in a few years, but Suzuki thinks that the hope of building this new port is not great.
There is also a circle of residential areas inside, and the library of the Tree of Knowledge in the center.
And the street that Suzuki was walking on was also called East Street, and the name tells that it is the street on the east side.
This street was quieter than the port, and Suzuki finally had some leisure time to stand still and take a good look at the scenery of Ohara.
Looking up, most of the streets were two or three-story houses.
The houses were neatly arranged on the street, and many of them had signs of "hotel" and "restaurant".
Through the gaps of these houses, you can see a large group of towering hills on Ohara Island.
These hills were not high, nor were they like small mounds.
On the contrary, they looked like cylindrical pillars standing on the ground, very unique.
Looking up further, you can see the huge canopy of the Tree of Knowledge that covers the sky.
The canopy of this Tree of Knowledge covers almost half of the island, and it is much higher than those cylindrical hills that stand everywhere.
Even if Suzuki was just stepping out of the port area of the island, he was still a few kilometers away from the center of the island, he could still feel the shock of that huge thing.
Although it was a plant, it could also be regarded as a living thing, unlike the dead mountains, the huge life always caused waves in people's hearts.
Suzuki's heart also had some waves, partly because of the hugeness of the Tree of Knowledge, and more because of the many knowledge inside.
Although he didn't know if those scholars would let him go in and visit and learn, but since there were people selling tickets outside the port, there must be a way to get in.
He had no intention of staying on this street, he didn't plan to stay in Ohara for too long.
He looked at the Tree of Knowledge in the distance, and Suzuki also continued to move his feet towards there.
However, he hadn't walked for long, and he felt like someone was following him behind.
He looked back, and it was a little girl who was less than a meter tall and obviously very young.
She was wearing clothes with many patches, and ran towards him with her small short legs.
So, Suzuki stopped in place.
He turned back and looked at the little girl who might have been following him from the pier.
The little girl was a little panicked, and immediately stopped her petite body that was running towards Suzuki.
She also stopped in place, a few tens of meters away from Suzuki, lowering her head and saying nothing.
Suzuki saw this, and did not choose to go over and say hello, but turned around calmly and continued to walk towards the Tree of Knowledge.
Although she was probably Robin, Suzuki had no interest in people who had no courage!
Even if she was Robin, even if she was very young.
But if she didn't even have the courage to ask a question and look at him face to face, there was no need to waste time on her now.
He walked for a while, and Suzuki felt the little tail behind him again.
He frowned slightly, but this time he didn't turn around, nor did he stop, but continued to walk forward.
Suddenly, there was a sound of running behind him, followed by a clear and pleasant young voice in his ears.
