Luffy: They finally arrived in this country. On the way here, they met a demon (river crab). Later, Vivi remembered that he/she was one of the enemies. Luo Xiu walked into the cabin in advance and did not appear, so his face was not copied.
Seeing the powerful imitation ability of this MR.2's imitation fruit, Zoro proposed some coping strategies. So when they landed, a group of them, except for Robin and Luo Xiu, had a bandage on their wrists. As for why Robin and Luo Xiu are not tied-
"It's time to part ways, Luffy. "Port, Luo Xiu and Robin said goodbye to Luffy and them. That's right, goodbye, don't forget, Luo Xiu and Robin are just rubbing the boat in the end. So far, none of them have joined Luffy's Straw Hat Pirates.
Luffy, who had long expected today's arrival, was very frank and replied with a hearty smile: "Ahhh I wish you all the best to achieve your goals sooner!"
Then, Luo Xiu went away with Robin without looking back. Their goal is a temple in the desert that is buried in yellow sand. There, there is a piece of historical text that they stumbled upon many years ago.
"Ah...... It's really gone......" Guina couldn't help but read as she looked at the backs of the two of them in the distance.
"What a merciless person...... It's okay to help Miss Weiwei first!" Sanji was upset that Robin was taken away by Luo Xiu.
"It's not like that, Sanji......" Luffy pressed his hat: "Teacher, he should have been here seven years ago." You don't have to accompany us all the way here. Teacher, he's been taking care of us. ā
For a moment, they were silent. Looking back at their journey, they have indeed received some guidance from Luo Xiu to some extent. Even the complaining Sanji learned a lot of recipes and how to obtain ingredients from Luo Xiu.
Parting is always sad, but, after all, Luffy, his attention was quickly diverted by his stomach: "Ah! I want to eat!
"Ha ......" looked at his captain like this, and the others couldn't help but smile.
In a restaurant not far from the port, the people at the door gathered in a few circles. Judging by their discussions, it seems that someone died. A guest who was eating suddenly fell on his stomach without warning, his hands still stiff.
The guest was a young man with an upper body. But no one seems to have seen the symbol on his back - the Whitebeard Pirates.
Suddenly, someone parted the crowd and walked in. Under the gaze of everyone, this man walked straight to the "dead man", and then punched him: "Don't fall asleep while eating!
The force was well controlled, and the person who was beaten immediately woke up and covered his head. And there was nothing broken about the dining table, or counter, beneath him.
"It hurts!Which bastard hit me?!" the man who was beaten burst out and cursed loudly. Then he saw a face that was so familiar that it would give him nightmares.
"Yo~ Ace, beat your bastard, it's for the teacher. Luo Xiu smiled expressionlessly.
"Ah...... Ace exclaimed!!" Ace exclaimed, then laughed and hugged Luo Xiu: "I haven't seen you for three years!Teacher!" (Ace's heart: Oops! It's actually a teacher! Anyway, pretend to be excited and fool the past!)
The big black hand pinched Ace's entire head: "Do you think you can fool the past?
"Babble-"
Move...... Ahem, the education process lasted only three minutes and nineteen seconds. In this process, Ace fully understood one thing: even if he ate the Devil Fruit of the natural system, and his strength in the past three years was far greater than before, he was still not Luo Xiu's opponent. Especially the fruit ability, Luo Xiu is simply their natural enemy.
"Alright, don't play dead. It seems that you have been patronizing the development of fruit abilities for the past few years. The progress of physical ability is a little slow. In terms of physical ability, Luffy is better than you now. Luo Xiu clapped his hands and adjusted ...... Ashes stained when educating Ace.
Ace, who was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, immediately got up: "What? I'm going to lose to that idiot? Just kidding! Where is he? I'm going to hang him and show you!"
"Hah...... For the teacher, there is still a pre-departure to go. Luffy will probably run into you soon. Luo Xiu laughed inexplicably, and before walking out of the hotel, he paused and warned Ace: "You're chasing Blackbeard, right?" Be careful, that guy is better than you are. ā
"What are you talking about, hey, teacher......" Ace heard Luo Xiu's words as soon as he sat down, and immediately stood up again, but when he arrived at the door, there was no shadow of Luo Xiu: "You always make your words clear......"
Somewhere in the market, Robin and Rosho converged:
"How's Ace?"
"Looks pretty good. But the exercise is a little slack. Have you bought food and water?"
"Well, that's it. That's about a week's worth of it. Water is the main problem, and it is inconvenient to carry it. ā
"It's okay, I'll just look for the underground water veins when the time comes. ā
"That's fine. Weiwei's business, don't you really plan to care? The opponent is the crocodile of the Seven Martial Seas under the king. ā
"No problem...... Luffy: They already have enough strength. Whether they can win or not depends on whether they can give full play to their combat effectiveness. ā
"What a strict teacher. What if they don't play it all? Will you watch them die?"
"No, they won't die. This is their world. ā
"Their world, what do you say again......
"You don't ask. I can tell you at any time. ā
"I won't ask...... A woman's intuition. Probably when I knew that, when you left me. ā
"......" Luo Xiu didn't say anything, just smiled faintly. Robin tried to see something in the smile. Bitterness, loneliness, loneliness, sadness...... None at all. She was a little lost, and even after living together for more than twenty years, she still didn't know anything about this man.
Luo Xiu could see Robin's mood, but he didn't have much idea. Luo Xiu knew very well that he couldn't give this woman any promises. Carrying a large bag full of food and water, he beckoned Robin to leave: "Let's go, go find the desert." ā
Maybe he also knew that his troubles were meaningless, and Robin was not lost for too long. Hearing Luo Xiu greet her, she cheered up and followed.
The Navy Colonel, Smoker Smoker, who had been chasing Luffy all the way, also arrived at this port today. And they landed earlier than Luffy. When he passed by a restaurant, he heard a lot of noise inside, but when he went inside, he found a big man:
"How could a character like you come to such a place? Captain of the Second Squad of the Whitebeard Pirates, why are you here to be here? Potcas, D. Ace!" (Smoker's heart: What's the matter with this guy's face? Someone here can hurt this guy?!)
"Can't you let me go?" Ace covered the wound on his face and stood up helplessly: "I'm here to find Oudoudou (younger brother)!"
