Chapter 100 - An Unquiet Night
Just as the Straw Hats staged a bloody fight between their companions on the Merry, Robin, dressed in a green cloak, quietly disappeared into the night with Bruno, and she once again walked into the darkness for the sake of her companion and lover.
"You seem to have been preparing for a long time here, look at your familiar appearance!" Robin, who was angry in his heart, did not miss a chance to hit the fool in front of him.
"You don't have to worry about this! You just need to understand your mission, you also showed the photo to you, the person in the photo, you will teach him a lesson today, this is the punishment of not cooperating with the world government, but the government will still give him a chance, if he refuses to cooperate next time, then we can only take his life, the guys who do not cooperate with the world government are potential revolutionary army, this dangerous atmosphere you should be able to understand, Nicole Robin! Bruno replied with a smirk.
"Hmph, a bunch of scumbags, I'll cooperate with you!"
"Hehe, that's good!" As the sound drifted away, the two figures gradually disappeared on the top floor of the Seven Waters Capital, on the shipbuilding island.
On the other side, as the clock tower points to 10 o'clock at night, on the abandoned island behind the backstreet in the melodious bells, the former friends start a sad duel under the light of torches, Nami who covers her mouth and cries quietly, Chopper who cries and cries while holding the railing, Zoro who holds a sword and smokes a cigarette silently, under their witness, Usopp, a former Straw Hat Boy Pirate sniper, boatman, banquet heckler, and weapon inventor, challenges his former captain to the death to retake the Merry.
The two who knew each other well had a fierce decisive battle here, but in the end, it was undoubtedly the weaker Usopp who was unable to lie on the ground, and with a sentence of "Merry is for you, we don't need it, we will continue our journey with a new ship, and Usopp will see you again!" Luffy resolutely walked back to the Merry and beckoned his crew to spend the night at a hotel in the city.
"It hurts, doesn't it?" Sauron, who had been holding his sword silently, suddenly spoke to his captain.
"Why?" Luffy, who was still indifferent just now, was already biting his lip and crying.
"This is the captain, even if the crew is all confused, he has to stand up alone to point out the direction, this is the captain's responsibility!" Sauron thought of Planck's request, and couldn't help but secretly torture himself if he had done all this correctly.
Planck, who was worried about him at this moment, slowly opened his eyes in a dark room, breathing the oxygen in the dark room with difficulty, and the wound in his chest made him feel like he was being pierced through the chest by a knife every time he breathed, and it hurt hotly. Planck, who gritted his teeth and insisted, helplessly found that his limbs had already been ruthlessly twisted, and he couldn't use any strength, "Bastard!" Rob Rockie, you bastard, I won't let you go! Planck, who couldn't shake out the cards in his hand to teleport his fate, could only vent his anger in a feeble insult. Robin, I'm sorry for you! Feeling the powerlessness and uncertainty of life and death that he had never felt before, Planck quietly blinked tears from the corners of his eyes. Usopp, this is wound medicine, you have to remember to change it! Under Chopper's tearful advice, only Usopp, whose chest was slowly heaving, was left next to the Merry on the desert island, and the other members of the Straw Hats saluted and carried orange trees to the hotel in the City of Seven Waters.
At the same time, a gunshot rang out in the quiet night of the Carrera shipyard. "What sound? Whose gun went off? Bastard, report it! "Oh no, it's Mr. Esbagu's bedroom, where the gunshots are coming from!" "No, Mr. Esbagu is in danger! Contact the foremen, and you guys will go with me to Mr. Esbagu's room! “
As more and more people were awakened by the sound of gunfire and noise, the entire shipyard was instantly noisy, and the culprit who caused it all came out of a wall, "You're nice, Nico Robin!" Hahaha! Bruno smirked. Hmph, are you really despicable, deliberately revealing my identity in order to blame the Straw Hats? Robin was a little angry and roared in a low voice with Bruno, "The world government is a people-friendly organization with a good image, how can it assassinate its own people?" Pirates are different, they burn, kill and loot all kinds of evil, and their reputation is already stinking on the street, so let him carry a black pot and believe that he won't mind, it's better than losing his life, isn't it? Bruno said meaningfully.
Robin, who understood the meaning, no longer insisted on this argument, but said: "The task is complete, we have agreed, let me see Planck!" ”
"Yo Yo Yo! This man and woman in love are reluctant to part for a moment? Hahaha! Don't worry, although our means are dark, we still have credibility, you have to believe us on behalf of the government, let's go see him! Bruno, who was running smoothly, also responded happily.
The next day, the Straw Hats, who were tossing and turning in the hotel and had insomnia, all sat in the restaurant on the first floor early and boredly fiddled with the breakfast in front of them, and even Luffy, who usually had a strong appetite, stopped his amazing rice bucket cooking performance.
"We have to find something to do, we can't do this anymore, Scarface and Robin-chan didn't return overnight, I'm afraid it's dangerous! I'm going to wait and find out! Sanji looked at the dishes on the plate critically, put down the knife and fork and said solemnly.
"Then let's all go and find it!" Nami also listlessly agreed, and at this time, the shouting outside the door caught her attention, "Selling newspapers, selling newspapers, Mr. Esbagu was assassinated last night and is still unconscious!" Who is the murderer? Complicated and confusing! ”
"Man, bring me a newspaper!" Nami tossed a coin and shouted anxiously to the newsboy outside the door.
"Well, beautiful lady!" After catching the 10 Bailey coin from the air, the newsboy happily handed over a newspaper and sent a compliment.
Nami, who didn't care about this, waved her hand and hurriedly opened the newspaper and read it. "Luffy, Mr. Esbagu was assassinated last night, and he hasn't woken up yet!"
"What?" Seeing Nami fold the newspaper with a serious face, Luffy also became serious, "Nami, we have to go and see, Mr. Esbagu, he is very good to us!" I'm going to find out that bastard who assassinated my uncle and beat him up! "So be it, Zoro stays and salutes, Sanji, you and Chopper go find Robin and Planck, Chopper's nose may be able to help you." Luffy and I went to Shipbuilding Island to see how Uncle Esbagu was doing, and we had to find him when we bought a boat! Listening to Nami's arrangement, everyone nodded solemnly. The wind outside the window is blowing more urgently, so be careful, there may be a storm that will affect the whole island tonight! Everyone remember not to come back too late! Looking at the dark clouds that had begun to come into contact with the waters of the City of the Seven Waters, Nami turned back to her companions.
Indeed, a storm is coming that will sweep through the capital of the seven waters.
