Chapter 3 Like This?

Anyone who pays attention to Maud's movements will definitely think that Maud is in the Chambord Islands.

The same goes for Robin.

But the fact is that Maud came to Alabastan.

Robin thought about it and subconsciously walked towards the door.

Now is the most critical moment for Klockdahl to implement the [Thief Plan].

Anyway, before touching the [original historical text] of Alabastan with your own hands.

As a partner of Klockdahl, she must always fulfill her duties and bring the news to Klockdahl as soon as possible.

It's just that during this sensitive period, Maude, who is also a member of the Seven Martial Seas, came to Alabastan......

Is this good or bad?

Robin, who had planned to leave a way back for Maude, was also a little unsure of the direction at the moment.

Robin, who walked towards the door, never noticed the shadow coming from behind.

The shadow flowed to Robin's heel, and immediately inflated like a balloon, and in just a second, a tall pitch-black figure appeared.

The moment the black line appeared, Robin suddenly realized it, and his eyes suddenly shrank.

"Who'......!?"

Robin's hands were crossed.

"Rokuwa flowers...... Hmmm......"

When Robin is alert, he reflexively uses the ability to bring out flowers and fruits.

But the black shadow that appeared was faster than her, sticking to her like a swamp, not only blocking her mouth, but also pushing her against the wall.

Wall Knock –

With a muffled sound.

A dark bogmire-like shadow pressed Robin's body against the wall.

Both the mouth and the limbs were tightly wrapped around the black shadow.

“!!!”

Robin, who was bound by the black shadow and couldn't move, suddenly trembled in his heart.

The touch brought by the black shadow wrapping around various parts of her body turned into a dangerous signal, constantly stimulating her thoughts.

"Who the hell is it? Well? This is...... Shadow?! ”

In a panic, she suddenly noticed something.

When she figured out what was holding her back, she guessed the identity of the person who came in an instant.

It's Maude......!

Realizing that it was Maude, Robin gave up struggling.

The heart, which suddenly sped up in a panic, slowly decreased in frequency.

Seeing Robin quiet down, the shape of the viscous black shadow changed, and gradually turned into Maude.

Although it was no longer clinging to Robin's body, Maude's right palm was still on Robin's mouth.

"I don't want anyone to see me here, so I shot a little rougher, you shouldn't mind, right? Nicole Robin. ”

Maud could hear Robin's heartbeat that had slowed down, and withdrew her hand.

"Still, it feels good."

At the end, Maude raised his palm and teased at the right time.

Rao is accustomed to seeing Robin, who is used to ups and downs, and his face at this moment is inevitably slightly red.

But she quickly composed, staring at Maude up close.

"Why are you in Alabastan, and what is the purpose of coming here?"

"Purpose?"

Maude took a step back, looked down into Robin's eyes, and smiled, "Why did I come to Alabastan?" You should know that very well, right? ”

“……”

Robin's eyes moved slightly, and his face did not change: "If I knew the reason, I wouldn't have asked you such a question in the first place." ”

"Huh."

The corners of Maude's mouth twitched, and instead of pursuing Robin's small action of using Usopra to enter the game, he suddenly bent and stretched his knees, allowing his body to sit back into the air where there was nothing.

Just as Maude's body was about to lose its balance, a shadow crept in through the crack in the room, and in an instant, it came behind Maude, transforming into a pitch-black high-backed chair.

Maud sat down in her chair just like that.

When he came to the entrance of the [Rain Banquet] just now, Maude first left a shadow in the same place before going to the aid of the Straw Hats.

After all, the enemy is Smoker, so even without a shadow, Maud can easily win.

When he disposed of Smoker in two or two, the shadow left in the [Rain Banquet] also happened to touch the room where Robin was.

Maud also directly swapped positions with the shadows, teleporting to the room, and at the same time allowing the shadows transferred to the street to return to their main body as quickly as possible.

Subsequently, there was also the scene of Maude sitting impartially on the shadow chair.

Such a comfortable use of the ability shows Maude's high proficiency in using the Shadow Fruit's ability.

"It doesn't matter why or anything."

Maud sat on the shadow chair, looked at Robin in front of him, and said lightly: "It's you, are you interested in making a deal with me?" ”

"Deal?"

Robin was slightly stunned.

"Yes."

Maude smiled: "And it's a deal that will only be beneficial and disadvantageous for you." ”

When Robin heard this, he couldn't help but hesitate, and directly filtered the pros and cons, which sounded like nothing to be seen.

Now we are only one last step away from seeing with our own eyes the original history hidden in the depths of this country.

If this so-called deal with Maud was made, which led to an accident in the middle, it would be more than worth the loss.

After only a little thought, Robin was inclined to refuse.

But

Will the man in front of her give her the right to refuse?

Thinking of this, Robin looked squarely at Maude and asked, "Do I have an 'option' to refuse?" ”

Maude chuckled softly, "Apparently not. ”

“……”

A look of helplessness flashed in Robin's eyes, and after taking a deep breath, he asked according to Maude's meaning, "What deal?" ”

Maude said calmly: "I need all the relevant information of the high-level special attacks in the Baroque workshop, involving abilities, names, and photos, I don't need to be too detailed, but I must ensure the authenticity, if it's you, it shouldn't be difficult to get these, right?" ”

Robin heard this and nodded silently.

It wasn't clear what Maude's motive was for asking for the information, but the difficulty of the request was nothing to her.

"Good."

Seeing Robin nodding his head, Maude smiled and said seriously: "In exchange, I will give you a chance to 'ask for help', which should also be ...... What do you want from me? ”

"Nope."

Robin shook his head, staring motionlessly at the extraordinary man in front of him, who was at the peak of his debut.

The courage that rose from the bottom of her heart for no reason made her express her true intentions without thinking.

"What I really want from you is not a chance to 'ask for help', but ...... Provide me with protection, or shelter. ”

"It's a good idea, but it's a pity that the chips you give are not equivalent to this request."

Maude's expression was calm, and he reached out to his side, using his shadow whiskers to pull a half-palm-sized brindled gecko in the air.

This hapless gecko is a medium to give Robin a chance to call for help.

"Chip ......"

Robin didn't care about Maude's move to get the gecko at all, and his heart moved slightly.

"Maude, I can do more for you than intelligence!"

"Oh?"

Maude raised an eyebrow, and suddenly stretched forward her other hand.

The shadow turned into a tide of random thoughts, pulling Robin directly in front of him.

"Like this?"

Warm nephrite into her arms, Maud's aggressive eyes, with her breath can rush to the distance of her face, and burst into Robin's eyes.

Puff tom tom ......

Robin's heart beat faster.

She panicked.
