Gorosei1: King Cobra of Arabasta,
Gorosei2: what do you wish to ask?
Cobra: Ah… where do I even begin… right then..
Bottom:
Cobra1: 800 years ago, the World Government..
Cobra2: ..was founded by the Twenty Kings.
Cobra: They’re regarded as the creators of the world…
Gorosei thinks: ……………
Cobra: ..and they relocated to Marijoa with their families.
Cobra: Overtime, they came to be known as the Celestial Dragons..
Cobra: ..and have ruled the world for the past 800 years.

B1: Within their group, the Twenty Kings remain equal..
B2: ..such to ensure that no single dictator can be born.
B3: They deliberately created the Empty Throne..
B4: ..and surrounded it with the 20 weapons of the Twenty Kings, with an oath that no one would sit on it.
Middle:
B1: On the other hand, in the twenty countries that lost their royal family..
B2: ..new rulers were chosen and continue to rule in the present.
B3: Therefore, the names of the royal families that made up the first twenty
B4: no longer appear in their homelands..
Bottom:
B1: However, Arabasta was different!! The reigning queen at the timeー
B2: Queen Nefertari Lily, while keeping her name among the First Twenty,
B3: She turned down the offer to become one of the Celestial Dragons.
B4: By returning to Arabasta, her family name..
B5: ..stayed in her homeland.
Saturn: .......

B1: Therefore, there are only 19 weapons that surround the throne.
Gorosei: That’s true.. what about it?
B2: I have looked into the ancient writings that remain in the country..
B3: ..but the only history that we can know of..
B4: ..is just what was written in documents from after the Void Century..
Middle:
B1: Queen Lily’s name
B2: isn’t found anywhere!!
Bottom:
B1: She never returned to the Arabasta Kingdom..
B2: Ever since then, Queen Lily’s younger brother governed Arabasta for her.
B3: Is there anything you know about this..?

Saturn: Thinking about it..
DenDen1: This is an old story from 800 years ago..
2: It is true that the Nefertari family were the only rulers that didn’t end up living here..
3: But we also thought that they returned to their country, but the reasons and their whereabouts…
4: We have no way of knowing the ancient past.. Sorry about that, we don’t know.
Middle:
B0: …..
B1: Well then,
B2: what does “D” mean?
Bottom:
B1: Why would you ask such a thing?
B2: Well, actually, there was a small letter from her, 800 years ago…
B3: It’s been passed down through the generations of the royal family..
B4: ?!

Gorosei got outplayed again
We keep memeing about Imu being a literal shadow but the reveal about his or her face kinda needs to happen now otherwise this could have been relegated to just the newspapers
I can maybe see the big reveal of next chapter being Imu's identity and him or her killing Cobra with one the swords of the Empty Throne
