Preparations for the trial voyage of the "Big Salted Fish" were carried out in an orderly manner.

Frankie, the chief airship mechanic, boarded the ship with the crew responsible for driving the airship in turn, and the ground crew were also busy doing the final inspection and maintenance work on the front line.

Conquering the sky is always the dream pursued by human beings.

All other factors aside, the idea of swimming in the clouds with your companions is extremely romantic in itself.

So this trial mission was also treated as a company vacation trip by Galen and others, in addition to Nami, the meteorologist in charge of weather forecasting, Weiwei and Robin, two unrelated personnel, were also invited to enjoy the air vacation.

Although the "Big Salted Fish" uses relatively safe helium, the risk of the first sea trial of the airboat is certainly not too small, but Galen is not afraid:

Because he can use infinite firepower to take the moon step, he can serve as an air lifeguard in a critical moment.

When the time comes, he will hold Nami in his left hand, Weiwei in his right hand, and a Robin on his back, which will just save all three of his companions.

As for the fellow mechanic Frankie, what to do?

Life and death are fateful, and wealth is in the sky.

Ahem...

Frankie is a scientist who has mastered the core technology, where does he need Galen, a reckless man, to take care of.

At the same time as developing the airboat, Frankie also invented a life-saving parachute jump bag, a glider, and even a short-haul rocket backpack with cola fuel.

After a hectic period of work, the crew and ground crew finally made preparations.

Galen stood in front of the empty boat, high-spirited and scolding:

"To the endless blue, march!"

"Big salted fish...."

The sound is full of energy.

"Sure enough, you can't even call this ghost name yourself!"

Nami's roar rang in Galen's ears, and she unrelentingly tugged at Galen's collar and asked:

"Why did you choose such a ghost name for our airship!"

Vivi and Robin, who were next to her, also nodded, silently echoing Nami's statement.

"This..."

"That's a good name..."

Galen turned his head in defiance of his conscience and forced himself to explain in a serious manner.

There was silence, but Galen could feel the resentment in the air in the silent environment.

"I really can't do it, how about calling it in another language?"

In the midst of three eyes of implicit resentment, Galen stubbornly proposed:

"Salted Fish..."

"Does that sound a little unclear?"

There was still silence.

Galen had no choice but to keep a strained face and force himself not to look at Nami and the three.

At this time, a strange male voice with a lazy tone suddenly sounded next to him:

"Salted fish? Haha..."

"I think it's a good name! It's very much in line with my attitude towards life..."

"That's right!"

Galen subconsciously chimed in.

Then, he suddenly woke up: "Who is it?!" ”

The location of this airboat factory is in the desert beyond the rainland, and there is no one for ten miles.

And the few staff members are also busy in their respective positions at this time, and it is impossible to appear next to Galen and others.

"Me."

The languid voice sounded again.

Galen and the others followed the prestige, and they were shocked to find:

A tall man in a white suit with a green blindpatch on his forehead was sitting proudly in a nearby seat, and an ordinary-looking bicycle was parked next to him.

Galen's gaze froze, and he instantly summoned an armored sword and entered the data mode.

And Robin was even more shocked by the man in front of him, and a thin layer of cold sweat quietly appeared on his forehead.

Only Nami and Vivi still didn't know what was going on, but asked the strange man in front of them in confusion, "Who are you?" ”

The man slowly stood up from his seat, and his tall body, which was nearly two meters five, immediately brought a natural oppressive force:

"A navy."

"Oh... It turned out to be the Navy. ”

Nami's reaction was very calm.

Because Galen's identity has always been a friend of the Navy, Nami has long been used to dealing with the Navy.

The man glanced at Nami for a moment, and looked at Robin, who was trembling secretly:

"Long time no see, Nicole Robin."

Robin's face suddenly became much more ugly, and the sweat on her forehead began to flow on her fair cheeks.

"Huh?"

Before Robin could speak, Nami turned her head in some surprise and asked:

"Robin, do you know this navy?"

"He is..."

Nami's words came to an abrupt halt as she suddenly remembered that she had a wanted criminal by her side who couldn't be spotted by the Navy.

"He is the highest combat power of the navy, one of the three major generals, 'Pheasant' Kuzan."

Galen explained the identity of the visitor to Nami and Vivi with a solemn expression, and stepped forward to quietly protect Robin behind him.

Seeing Galen's figure in front of him, Robin felt a sense of security in his heart for no reason, and his frowning eyebrows gradually eased.

Since his childhood run, Robin has not met a man like Galen who would stand in his way for eighteen years.

Kuzan's demeanor is lazy, but his eyes are extremely clear, which invisibly creates a compelling momentum.

But Galen was no longer the kind of weak man who could be overwhelmed by his momentum alone, and he asked Kuzan without giving in:

"General Kuzan, what are you doing here?"

Kuzan glanced at Galen, who was guarding Robin tightly, and said meaningfully:

"Judging by your performance, it seems that you already know the purpose of my trip."

"That's right, I'm here for Nicole Robin, the 'Son of the Devil'."

Kuzan once again set his gaze on Robin, and said in a cold tone:

"Nicole Robin..."

"When the sand crocodile Klockdahl dies, you disappear from the sea again."

"So, I tried to come to Alabastan to investigate, and sure enough..."

"You've taken advantage of the situation and got a new boss."

Feeling the coldness in Kuzan's gaze, Robin's heart that had just relaxed and didn't have much was hanging high again.

Kuzan's voice was like the cold wind of Sanjiu, and even the hot air of the desert seemed to become cold because of it.

There was silence.

Everyone felt a chill out of thin air.

"General Kuzan..."

The corners of Galen's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but roll his eyes at Kuzan:

"You tell you the truth, you didn't secretly put this air conditioner."

"Haha..."

Kuzan scratched his head with a dry smile:

"You've found out."

"I'm going to create the atmosphere..."

Unfortunately, the tense atmosphere has been destroyed, and only liveliness remains.

"Ahem..."

Kuzan straightened his face, and finally put on the majesty of an admiral to Galen:

"Nicole Robin is a highly wanted criminal who has been hunted by the World Government for years."

"Even if you are the Seven Martial Seas of Your Majesty, you can't shelter sinners of this level!"

"So?"

Galen was not only not frightened by Kuzan, but asked rhetorically with a smile on his face, "Are you going to snatch someone from me?" ”

"I hope you'll cooperate."

Kuzan straightened up, looked at Galen condescendingly, and said coldly, "Otherwise..."

For the rest, Kuzan didn't say much.

However, the surrounding air is once again solidifying and cooling.

"Mr. Kuzan! Can you don't, don't put the air conditioner on it? ”

Wei Wei clasped her hands on her chest and complained with her teeth chattering.

Kuzan turned his head and cast a look as cold as ten thousand years of ice:

"This time, I didn't turn on the air conditioner."

Vivi immediately felt that the air was a little colder.

"I'm not going to let you take Robin."

Galen's calm and powerful voice sounded, and his determined eyes were like two fiery furnaces.

The cold is dispelled, and the surrounding air warms up instantly.

Because Galen's great sword was already burning with golden-red flames.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

Kuzan frowned slightly, and then said to Galen:

"To protect Nico Robin is to be the enemy of the World Government."

"Resisting me, the admiral, is even more declaring war on the navy."

"Once your legal identity is torn apart, all the efforts you have made in the East China Sea will be in vain."

Galen didn't speak.

But Robin behind him was trembling even more.

Kuzan looked at Galen again and said:

"You, Robin's new boss, should know...

"So far, all the organizations that have been involved with Nico Robin have all died."

"Except, of course, this woman."

"Why is that?"

"Shut up!"

Robin screamed hysterically, but the expression on his face was full of weakness and sadness.

"So..."

Kuzan condensed an ice blade in his hand, exuding a chilling cold air in the blazing desert sun:

"Nico Robin, come back with me for trial!"

Robin's expression froze, but after a short silence, he really took a slow step like a walking corpse.

However, a broad, powerful palm held her tightly, and the warmth of the palm was transmitted unreservedly to her cold skin.

"With me here, you can stay here with confidence."

Galen's voice was extremely firm, and it brought a force to Robin out of thin air.

Robin's body trembled slightly, and he couldn't help but raise his head and meet Galen with teary eyes.

With resolute and enthusiastic eyes, Galen comforted and encouraged Robin silently.

Then, without hesitation, Galen aimed his great sword at Kuzan.

Although his face was solemn, there was no tension in his heart.

Because...

Kuzan wasn't here to arrest anyone at all.

If you really want to arrest people from Galen, a famous Qiwu Sea who can "rival Reilly", the navy estimates that it will have to send two generals to have the confidence.

Moreover, Galen, who is familiar with the plot, knows it very well:

Kuzan seems to be a cold-blooded general who has come to arrest people, but he is actually Robin's 'guardian' at all, and has always been under the influence of his friend Haguvar K. D. Saulo's entrustment secretly looks after Robin.

Ever since Robin fled O'Hara, Kuzan has been keeping a close eye on Robin's whereabouts.

Robin has been on the run for eighteen years and has not been caught by the Navy, and it is very likely that there is a role behind Kuzan, a high-ranking Navy officer, secretly exerting his strength...

And now Kuzan is running over again to capture Robin in front of Galen?

This is nothing more than a test of Galen, to see if Galen, the new boss, is worth trusting.

Galen just thinks of it as seeing his father-in-law....

Ahem...

It is regarded as receiving the family members of employees to visit the company.

Of course, despite knowing this in his heart, Galen still didn't show the slightest relief on his face.

He looked at Kuzan with a solemn expression, and said handsome lines in front of Robin and Kuzan in a passionate and unwavering voice:

"If you want to take my companion, step over my corpse first!"

Robin has +30 opinion.

Kuzan's eyes suddenly showed a little more appreciation, and then...

Ice flowers bloom, and the cold air overflows.

"Oops, hey..."

"Why are you really fighting..."
