After hearing Robin's simple yet complicated past, Artoria, who was once a king, sneered, "What? A world government that destroys an island just because of its interpretation of past history doesn't matter."
"..." A few drops of sweat dropped from Robin's forehead, and he always had the illusion that he was on the wrong ship.
Even though Arturia and the holy sword in her hand were eroded by the curse and her thoughts were reversed, her fundamental purpose and ideal itself did not change.
She just changed from a knight king who kept her integrity for the sake of her ideals, to a tyrant who would carry out even tyranny in order to realize her ideals - Artoria [Alter].
"During this short voyage, I also observed the lives of many civilians..." Artoria paused and continued: "The residents of many villages and towns are living in numbness. The expressions on their faces Not a trace of life."
"Master, I have received your wish to overthrow the World Government." Arturia said with fighting spirit: "Just lead me to sweep away those miscellaneous soldiers, and remove those high-ranking nobles and kings who have done nothing. , slaughtered them all..."
[Altoria [Alter]’s favorability increases, but the bond level remains unchanged]
Everyone: "..."
"No, we don't have the strength to confront the World Government yet." Eric shook his head, "Moreover, we will stay here for a few days to verify my conjecture."
'Since so many pairs of eyes saw Red Eyes and Black Eyes taking Robin away, Qingzhi, the old father, should have gotten the news. '
'what would you do? Green pheasant...'
The new members joining the crew did not cause much commotion. After all, Captain Eric often brought new members to the ship.
Robin also did not agree to hold a welcome banquet, which disappointed the duo who were looking forward to feasting at the banquet.
Perona whispered: "It's like you don't eat a lot in normal times..."
◇
"Alala..." A tall man scratched his hair as if he had a headache. The wide eyepatch on his forehead could not hide his expression.
"Trouble, Nico Robin actually fell into the hands of this guy." A lazy lion woke up in the blink of an eye, his eyebrows raised, and two rays of light burst out from his eyes.
Holding the information handed over to him by his superiors in one hand, Aokiji whispered in a low voice: "What is your purpose in taking away Nicole Robin? Darren Eric!"
"The 'Devil's Son' Nico Robin can read the text of history, and Eric, a bold pirate, the two of them together...could it be said that he is after ancient weapons?!"
Aoki couldn't sit still. If possible, he would immediately take another colleague to the West Sea to capture Eric. However, it is definitely unrealistic for two generals to leave the Grand Route and go to the four seas at the same time.
After thinking for a while, Aokiji finally made up his mind and got up and left the recliner.
A naval warship sailed out from the New World, crossed the windless zone, and headed towards the Western Sea.
◇
"How long are we going to stay here?" Robin asked Eric, who was standing on the side of the boat.
"Huh?" Eric asked back, "Do you have anything urgent to deal with?"
"No." Robin shook his head, "Ten days have passed since I was witnessed by the residents of the town. I'm afraid the Navy Headquarters has received the news. If I stay in place for such a long time, I'm worried that it will attract the attention of the Navy Headquarters. Notice……"
"Don't you understand? I'm just waiting for someone from the Navy Headquarters..."
"!" Robin's eyes widened, and his fear was palpable, and he said with excitement: "The Navy Headquarters is not that easy to deal with! Do you think it will be like the branch navy fleet these days, being defeated by Deidara and Weibull? Can you solve it alone?!"
"Don't worry, I will protect you. Besides, the last meeting with Qingzhi was a bit hasty. I have something to tell him."
"..." Robin suddenly heard the name, feeling both scared and grateful.
Qingzhi's strength and indifference frightened her, but because of his openness, she narrowly escaped death.
Robin lowered his shoulders, "Since it's the captain's order, I understand."
"Captain, I saw General Aoki, riding his bicycle on the sea, heading here!" reported Chirong Hui from the watchtower.
"Is it finally here..." Eric calculated the distance in his mind, "It's pretty fast. I thought I had to wait a few more days."
"Let's go, Robin." Eric patted Robin on the shoulder, "At least meet your old friend. If it weren't for him, you wouldn't be able to escape the bombardment of the warship."
"..." Robin followed behind Eric silently.
"Kakaka"
The sea is frozen under the wheels of the bicycle, and a narrow ice road connects here from the distance.
"Alala..." Qingzhi looked at the steel battleship popping up in the distance, "Are the members of the Dawn Pirates still here? It always feels like they are waiting for me..."
This was very different from Eric's usual style. Whenever Eric was exposed to the Navy's sight, he usually only stayed in the same place for two or three days before disappearing.
Within two to three days, the fleet sent by the Navy headquarters was unable to reach the sighting site to capture Eric, and the strength of the Navy branch was far from the opponent of Eric's group. High mobility and high concealment are why the navy's upper brass has such a headache for Eric and his gang.
In the past few days, three fleets jointly dispatched by several nearby naval branches were defeated by "explosive expert" Deidara and a huge helmeted man alone.
Therefore, Deidara's wanted order was finally updated, and the transformed Weibull was once again on the wanted list because his appearance was so different from his previous appearance.
"Explosion Artist" Deidara has a bounty of 180 million Beli.
The "Helmet Man" has a bounty of 110 million beli.
Deidara's name was finally changed to Explosion Artist, which made him happy for several days, thinking that someone finally understood his art.
As for the problem that Weibull only had a name, the navy did not know his name, and Heitong had never called Weibull's name in front of the navy.
Aokiji also received news from the nearby navy branch and learned that the Dawn Pirates had been docked on this island for nearly ten days with no sign of leaving, so he decided to ride his bicycle alone and rush here.
'Combined with their ability to snatch Devil Fruits, is Eric's target originally me? Some thoughts flashed through Qing Zhi's mind, but he still went to see her resolutely.
'However, only the two of us present knew about my relationship with Robin...' Qingzhi looked a little confused, 'Could it be that she told Eric about this? '
Even now, Aokiji has no intention of backing down. He is a naval admiral. Even if the justice burning in his heart is extinguished by that shell, it will not change his mission to capture pirates!
The narrow ice road finally connected the island, and Aokiji's bicycle finally landed on land.
Eric, Kurumi, Scathach and Artoria stood in front of him. Robin, who was a little girl thirteen years ago, stood behind them with a grimace on her face.
Qingzhi scratched the fluffy curly hair on the back of his head and said with a wry smile: "Alala, is the target really me?"
He set up the kickstand and parked the bicycle aside, "Where's 'Ice Queen' Esdeath? Or, 'Kui Long', do you think four people can take care of me?"
"Didn't you take Robin's combat power into account..." Eric smiled and said, "I just want to see you, and I have no intention of fighting."
"If I let Esdeath know, I will definitely have a fight first. I don't know how it will end then."
"Is that so...Did you tell Darren Eric about our relationship? Nicole Robin?"
Robin still had the same expression and said nothing.
"No." Eric explained for her, "She didn't say anything. I learned about it from other places."
"You?" Aoki looked at Eric carefully, "According to your age at the time, you were only seven or eight years old at most. In the O'Hara incident, only one Nicole Robin survived, and the others..."
Everyone present understood what Qing Pheasant meant.
"Eric's words are all true." Artoria said, "I swear on the honor of the knight."
"Another fascinating beauty..." Qingzhi suddenly showed the look of a lustful uncle, "Do you have time tonight?"
"Really..." Artoria refused with a calm expression: "Sorry, I have become Eric's sword and shield and cannot accept the appointment."
"Really, what a pity."
"Don't seduce my crew members right off the bat!"
"Having said that," Aokiji scratched his cheek and said, "the number of female crew members on your ship is a bit too much."
