Boom!

Boom!

……

Front-mounted artillery fire intensified.

Among the people who attended the Elegia Festival, there were many well-informed people, so it was natural to see what Eleguia was going to face.

"It's a demon slaying order!"

"Are we going to bury the Draconians?"

"Is the Navy all waste? Why did you launch the Demon Slaying Order?! ”

“……”

Among them, there are also calm and calm people who have discovered the abnormality of things.

"It's just 'a criminal', no matter how strong it is, it can't completely wipe out a country."

"Unless ......"

"There is something or a person on Elegia that must be destroyed!"

“……”

……

Yes, there is.

The girl knows this very well.

For the World Government, there is indeed "one thing" and "one person" on the island of Elegia at this moment, which must be destroyed!

The so-called "thing" is a musical score.

It seals a terrifying artifact second only to ancient weapons - Totemjika!

The agents found the clues and sent them back to the World Government.

Now that Totmjika's whereabouts are unknown, the score must be destroyed in order to prevent it from falling into the wrong hands and threatening the World Government!

And the so-called "people", the girl also knows very well who it is.

It's herself—

【Son of the Devil】Nico Robin!

The only remnant of O'Hara, and the only archaeologist on the sea who can decipher the text of history!

Once, under the protection of her friend's sacrificed life, she narrowly escaped the pursuit of the Demon Slayer Order and the Navy.

And many years later, the nightmare called the "Demon Slaying Order" finally struck again!

“……”

"I ...... I ......"

Robin sat down on the floor, his voice shaking, everything in front of him becoming a little blurry.

Artillery fire roared.

The nightmare of the past struck, like a slender caterpillar, burrowing into Robin's body in one go.

The smell of fire, cannonballs, gunpowder, and blood......

Huge fear and intense discomfort came together, and Robin couldn't help but retch.

"The Demon Slayer Order is here again, it's here again!"

"Saulo, I, what should I do? Saulo ......"

Saulo - is the vice admiral of the Giant Clan who once saved Nicole Robin, and is one of her very few "friends".

He taught Robin that she needed to laugh more when she was in pain, and he told her that "there is no one in the world who is always lonely."

But now, Robin has not yet found the so-called "partner who is willing to protect himself", but the Demon Slayer Order has found her first.

Even though the bounty was as high as 79 million berry, even though she had sunk several naval warships by herself, and even though she thought she could face the past, she was still a child after all.

As she should, she was afraid.

Tears fell one after another, trembling and murmuring:

"Help, save me......"

"Whoever it is, help me...... Help me......"

“……”

……

Sound makes up music, and music is capable of conveying emotions.

Therefore, sound can convey emotions.

Because of this, Uta, who is a superhuman singer with the ability to sing and sing, has fallen into a "quagmire" at this moment!

She was supposed to be next to Ben Beckman, but when she found Robin slumped to the ground, she wanted to come to help.

However, Robin's unconscious murmur showed all her fear and uneasiness to Uta.

Uta is a capable person, but also a musical genius.

The two were combined, and the tension and panic of the people around them surged up again, almost destroying the little girl's psychological defense!

"Hmm!"

She crouched on the ground, trying to escape the feeling, reassuring herself, "There's Shanks, yes, Shanks and everyone is ......"

“……”

Suddenly, something sounded in Uta's ears.

“……”

is unknown music.

Uta searched for prestige, and used his hand to pluck the floating soil on the ground, and found a stack of musical scores!

"Huh?"

She looked at the sheet music and saw that the papers were very old.

"It's ......"

“……”

If Klockdahl had been here, he would have snatched the scores and taken them into his arms.

Because this is exactly the score that sealed the "Totemjika"!

He sensed Uta's fear, and used the emotion to try to lure Uta into freeing it.

Uta didn't know about it.

She only vaguely felt something, and looking at the notes on the score, she had an urge to sing them out!

It's as if all the fears she faced would disappear as soon as she sang them!

This sensation affected Uta, who opened his mouth slowly......

And just as the first note was about to exit, two big hands suddenly put one on the left and one on the right, and gently rested on Uta's shoulders.

"Huh?!"

In an instant, Totemjika's faint lure dissipated.

Uta turned her head to look and saw two "adult" faces—

Shanks and Vine Tiger.

They stood on either side of Uta, one on the left and one on the right, dispelling the fear and uneasiness in her heart.

Shanks was still smiling as usual, and grinned at his daughter:

"Don't worry, everything will be fine."

"Lord Utah, Lord Robin......"

Fuji Hu took half a step forward, his eyes opened slightly, and said slowly: "You two are still young, so you don't need to take all the responsibility on your shoulders. ”

"If not, wouldn't it seem that we adults are too useless?"

“……”

Whoa-whoa-whoa......

More shells are coming.

Shanks took the lead in slashing, and Griffin's sword aura spread, destroying the first batch.

A large number of cannonballs farther away were about to hit the ground, and Fujitora also pulled out the staff knife at his waist.

Heavy Fruit Ability Activation!

Airplanes......

The dark purple gravity acted on the shells, forcing them to a halt in mid-air.

"Your Excellency Redhead."

Fuji Tiger turned his head slightly and said to Shanks: "What I am about to do is really a great injustice, please take the children and the people to sea as soon as possible." ”

“……”

Shankston paused, he didn't understand what Fuji Tiger was going to do.

Then, I saw Fuji Tiger take a step, step on the cannonball in the air, and rush in the direction of the warship.

Is he going to sink the warship?

No.

is also a swordsman, Shanks can feel that Fuji Hu's emotions at the moment are extremely complicated, and it is not as simple as "shooting at the navy" at all!

What did his heart choose?

……

Smack!

Fuji Tiger landed steadily and stood on top of the main warship.

The elite of the navy are ready for battle and ready for battle!

"Drink!"

Fuji Hu's loud shout made all the navies present tremble slightly.

The other party is undoubtedly a powerful Devil Fruit ability, and with an unknown ability, he is able to stagnate a large number of cannonballs in mid-air!

What exactly is he going to do?

"Under the name [Fuji Tiger] for a lifetime!"

Fuji Tiger said in a deep voice: "Please, please let me see the commander of the navy!" ”

The elite of the Navy looked at each other, and finally it was the "chief" who came out of the crowd, a man with a moxican head and a mustache.

Vice Admiral of the Admiral Headquarters - Flying Squirrel!

He is the person with the highest comprehensive quality in the new generation of navy, and is responsible for the command of this demon slaying order.

Facing the vine tiger, the flying squirrel's face was equally solemn.

He knew very well that the man in front of him was very likely to have the ability to destroy the Demon Slayer Order's fleet in an instant!

After all, the other party has already boarded the ship......

"Flying squirrel."

The flying squirrel reported his name and said in a deep voice, "What's the matter with you?" ”

Fuji Hu straightened his face and said loudly:

"In my opinion, Your Excellency Evan Lindsey has been right from beginning to end!"

"This demon slaying order is ridiculous, and Eleguia shouldn't be destroyed because of it!"

“……”

As soon as these words came out, the flying squirrel and the navy were stunned.

They never expected to hear such ...... Naive remarks?

But in any case, the demon slaying order will be launched after all, and the flying squirrel has no heart to argue with the person in front of him about what is right and wrong.

However, Fuji Hu's next sentence made everyone present stunned.

"Please give me time in the next moment."

Fuji Tiger opened his pure white eyes slightly, and placed the staff knife in front of him.

"Return to Eleguia in the next meeting and defeat the [Demon]!"

"In this way, Lord Lindsay is not the murderer who destroyed Eleguia, but the victim!"

“？！”

As soon as the words fell, even the flying squirrel couldn't help but shrink its pupils.

What's the line of thinking?

In order to prevent the [Demon] Evan Lindsay from bearing the name of "Destroying the Sinners of Eleguia", Fuji Tiger actually wants to take the Demon Slayer Order one step ahead to defeat the [Demon]?

"You ...... guy"

The flying squirrel's brows furrowed, and he wondered, "Is this your decision?" ”

"This is righteousness!"

Fuji Hu's face was solemn, and he slowly raised his staff and knife, and asked, "Can Your Excellency agree?" ”

“……”

The flying squirrel thought for a moment and asked, "What if I don't believe you?" ”

Fuji Tiger's staff knife was slightly unsheathed, and a suffocating sense of oppression instantly spread.

He whispered slowly:

"Then, I will abandon righteousness and reason to crusade against this ridiculous demon slaying order!"

“……”

……

Not much.

Dock.

Shanks is beckoning crew members and refugees to board the ship.

When he turned his head, he found that Fujitora had already returned the same way from the warship.

Looking at the naval fleet, it has also stopped most of the shelling, and while restricting civilian ships from going to sea with a small number of shells, it is on standby.

"You did ......"

Shanks waved his hand and stepped forward to say something, but found Fujitora pacing towards the island of Elegia with a gloomy face.

In an instant, Shanks understood Fujitora's thoughts.

"Hey!"

"It's all right, Your Excellency [Redhead]."

Fuji Tiger shook his head slightly.

"I promised the navy that I would take off the head of the [demon] in exchange for a temporary postponement of the demon slaying order."

"You're a bad guy down there, isn't he?"

Fuji Hu smiled bitterly and said slowly: "Please evacuate the people as soon as possible and evacuate to a safe place." ”

He looked up at the blazing flames of the island of Eleguia.

As soon as the conversation changed, he showed a very loose smile.

"After all, I'm not sure that I can safely persuade His Excellency Lindsay to 'fake death and escape'!"

"I had to do it desperately!"

“……”

Hearing this, Shankston paused and smiled helplessly: "Yes, he is not that kind of person." ”

Let the [Demon] who set off the riots in the Chambord Islands choose to fake his death to escape?

One thing to say, Shanks couldn't imagine that kind of picture.

He could only watch the blind man walk towards the island.

Destroy warships and cause chaos? Knights don't do that;

Seeing Eleguia destroyed? The knight didn't want to;

Allowing the world government to stigmatize "Evan Lindsay"? Chivalry is not allowed!

Countless complex emotions poured up, so that Fuji Tiger finally made a choice-

He's going to let [the demon] escape!

……

"Oh yes oh ......"

As he walked, Fuji Tiger laughed and sighed:

"I actually lied to the navy, I really gave up my righteousness and degraded myself!"

“……”

……

On this day, he deceived someone for the first time in his life.
