Chapter 134Isn't Lucci undercover?Where would he have time to train?"Oh? This old man thought I had already surpassed you." Kaku glanced at Jabra in surprise, his tone carrying a hint of teasing."Hmph, you're still far from it! And besides, how could my Doriki be inferior to yours!"Jabra was also somewhat annoyed that Kaku, a young man in his twenties, kept referring to himself as 'this old man'. "How old are you? Don't always say 'this old man, this old man', you'll really get old!"Most importantly, don't make me old too.Fukuro directly revealed the secret of why Jabra's Doriki had increased; he was a bigmouth:"Chababa, it's because this guy Jabra insisted on competing with us to see who was stronger in Rokushiki, dragging us into special training. Our Doriki values have all increased a bit, otherwise, Kaku, you'd be second! Chababa.""Didn't you just promise me to keep it a secret, Fukuro!" Jabra roared."Yohoho! It's been a long time, I'm truly ashamed!"Wedge suddenly knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face as he drew his Wakizashi. "Our unauthorized departure was truly unavoidable, and we are speechless before our comrades! We can only commit seppuku to atone for our sins!"With that, he fiercely plunged the Wakizashitowards his abdomen.Then.Iron Body: Orb!Accompanied by a crisp clang of hard objects colliding, the blade of the Wakizashi was blocked by his tensed abdominal muscles, unable to advance an inch."Can't die, yohoho!"Wedge looked regretful."Hahahahaha!" Jabra replied with a malicious laugh."Alright, enough with the jokes."Lucci interrupted their farce and asked in a deep voice, "Shouldn't the three of you be on standby at Enies Lobby? Why are you here?""It's all because of that idiot superior Spandam."Jabra put away his smile and pouted, "He said he wanted to be foolproof, so he insisted on sending us as reinforcements. Is Nico Robin really worth such a big fuss?"Fukuro looked around and asked, "By the way, where's Blueno? Didn't he come with you?"Lucci closed his eyes again: "I sent him to warn the Straw Hat Crew. With his ability, he'll be back soon."No sooner had he finished speaking than a ripple spread across the side wall of the carriage without warning, and a door was violently pushed open."He's back!"Fukuro excitedly turned his head, ready to measure Blueno's Doriki.However, what came from inside the door was Blueno's extremely weak voice: "Lu, Lucci..."Immediately after, Blueno, covered in blood and disoriented, stumbled out of the door and fell heavily to the ground.And behind Blueno, Luffy, wearing a Straw Hat, and Bally, barely standing, calmly stepped out from the door!Luffy adjusted the brim of his Straw Hat, looked at the gradually disappearing door on the ground, and grinned: "This door-opening ability is really good."...Meanwhile, in the first carriage, Robin, who had been resting with her eyes closed, finally opened them."Hey, woman, can you listen to me!"Franky was bundled up, only his blue pompadour showing, wriggling like a caterpillar on the floor not far away, his tone full of irritation. "We're in this together now, like grasshoppers tied to a single string. We need to cooperate to escape!"Robin tilted her head slightly, elegantly crossed her legs, and spoke calmly, a meaningful glint in her eyes. "So, you answer my question first, then I'll consider whether to release you.""What question? Ask quickly!"Franky urged, feeling like he was being driven mad by this woman's composure.Did she even know the destination of this train?"CP9's target, while lurking in Water 7, wasn't me initially. Tell me, why did they capture you?"Robin's insight was incredibly sharp. From the scattered words and action priorities of Lucci and the others, she had already deduced that she wasn't CP9's sole target in Water 7, and perhaps not even their primary one.This cyborg before her must be hiding an important secret.Franky was stunned for a moment, then became even more agitated: "How would I know why those perverts in black suits captured me! Super... it was so sudden, I woke up and they were attacking me!""Is that so?"Robin smiled faintly, a smile that made Franky's heart pound. "If you insist on knowing nothing, then we'll just have to be taken to Enies Lobbytogether. You know what kind of place that is, right? Once you're in, it's very hard to get out."Franky watched Robin elegantly seated on the sofa since she entered, not even a finger bound, while he was tied up like a human zongzi. This vast difference in treatment made him incredibly aggrieved.Double standards!This was blatant double standards!"Why do you get to sit, and I have to be tied up?!"Robin ignored his complaint, instead turning her gaze to the door connecting the carriages, as if she could see through the metal to the back. Her smile deepened, carrying a confident warmth: "Because my comrades have come to pick me up.""Huh?"Franky was stunned, thinking Robin was talking nonsense. "What kind of joke is that? This is a high-speed sea train. Outside is the vast ocean!""I'm not joking."Robin stood up, walked to the window, pulled back a corner of the curtain, and gestured for Franky to look outside.Franky struggled to twist his neck and looked out the window at the dark night sky. Under the lightning and thunder, a pirate ship with a sheep's head was cutting through the waves at an almost absurd speed, closely chasing the sea train. The ship's hull was even enveloped in a faint blue light, the power of wind propelling it."Is that a sailboat? How can it be so fast?"Franky was stunned. A sailboat's speed could rival a powerful sea train? This completely defied common sailing sense!"Can you tell me now?" Robin returned to the sofa, watching him composedly. "What exactly did they capture you for?"Franky looked at the relentlessly pursuing ship outside the window, then at the unfathomable woman before him, gritted his teeth, and finally relented:"It's for a blueprint."Chapter 194: Dangerous Great Pirates"Blueprint?" Robin raised an eyebrow."Yes, a blueprint for the legendary ancient weapon, Pluton." Franky lowered his voice, his tone heavy.Robin's pupils slightly contracted: "The blueprint for Pluton?"She indeed knew where the ancient weaponPluton slept; it was information she had read on the poneglyph in the royal tomb of Alabasta.But she had never imagined that a blueprint for Pluton still existed.Although she didn't believe the World Governmentcould easily recreate such a world-destroying weapon with just a blueprint, she was happy to cause trouble for the World Government."I see, this is their true objective after years of lurking."Robin nodded understandingly. She walked over to Franky, and with a slight movement of her fingers, "Thirty-Flower Blooming: Armor Release."Amidst flying petals, the sturdy ropes wrapped around Franky broke and fell away as if undone by an invisible hand."Phew, finally free. Super comfortable!"Franky moved his stiff mechanical limbs, making clicking sounds. "Thanks, woman. But what do we do now? Enies Lobby is ahead!""What to do?"Robin looked out the window again, her gaze following the going merry speeding through the wind and waves. A truly relieved and expectant smile appeared on her face. "Of course, we wait for my Captain to come and take us home."...Meanwhile, outside the sea train."Faster! Merry, Vivi, can you go any faster?!"Nami gripped the railing tightly, her orange short hair wildly dancing in the strong wind. She shouted at the little Merry steering and Vivi, who was fully activating her Wind-Wind Fruit ability at the stern."Sister Nami, this is already the fastest!"Little Merry struggled to control the direction, her small face flushed with excitement and concentration.At this moment, the going merry's hull was enveloped in a powerful whirlwind, its sails bulging to the limit, and the bottom of the ship was even slightly lifted off the water, as if flying just above the sea surface.This was a miraculous speed achieved by Vivipushing her Wind-Wind Fruit ability to its extreme, combined with the little Merry's perfect control over the ship as a Klabautermann!They had to rescue Nico Robin.Vivi wouldn't forget the threats CP9 made against Robin.So she also knew that Robin must be waiting for them.As for CP9's threat to attack the going merry, all those people had been dealt with by Nika.Vivi used her Wind-Wind Fruit ability to gather everyone quickly, and Nami relayed Luffy's Captain's orders to proceed at full speed."Waaah, we're going to fly!"Usopp clung desperately to the mast, tears streaming from his eyes in fear."This speed is too fast."Chopper transformed into his reindeer form, his four hooves gripping the deck tightly, both scared and excited.He had previously envied being able to ride the sea train; now the going merry was the sea train."But at a time like this, where's Luffy?" Usoppasked."He's already ahead."Nika pointed to the sea train and said, "Although I don't know what method he used, he's already on that sea train."Sure enough, the next second, a terrifying aura erupted from that train.Zoro and Sanji stood one on each side of the bow, their expressions grim as they stared at the sea train ahead."That idiot Captain, don't dismantle the carriage on the train itself," Sanji lit a cigarette, his tone carrying a hint of worry."He's our Captain."Zoro held his sword, his words firm, but the tight grip on his sword hilt showed he wasn't at ease.Beside them, there was another uniquely shaped steam train, resembling a rocket head.This was the rocketman, almost on par with the going merry, no, the going merry was even faster. It was packed with the subordinates of the Franky Family, who had come to rescue their boss."Hey, why is that wooden ship's speed even more outrageous than the rocketman's?!" The subordinates of the Franky Family watched the flying going merry beside them, their eyes nearly popping out."Hahahaha! Interesting, so interesting!"From the cockpit of the rocketman came Kokoro's hearty laughter. She took a swig from her liquor bottle. "As expected of a pirate crew that could catch Iceburg's attention, that ship already has its own soul!"...Just as Luffy arrived, the reporting official trembled and fell to the ground when he saw Luffy."Straw Hat Luffy with a bounty of 200 million Berries?!"The World Government official stumbled in fright, collapsing to the ground, pointing at Luffy and shrieking."Straw Hat Monkey D. Luffy."A calm voice sounded from behind."Bounty of 200 million Berries. From the East Blue, he successively defeated pirates with higher bounties than his own, became involved in a rebellion in Alabasta, then defeated Sir Crocodileof the Seven Warlords of the Sea, disrupting the World Government's plans and abducting a princess of a World Government-affiliated country. To our World Government, he is a true great criminal."Lucci walked past him from behind, stood in front, and looked at Luffy, saying, "There's been no information since you left Mock Town. Are you trying to provoke the World Government by harboring a woman like Nico Robin and attacking our CP9?"The atmosphere in the carriage instantly dropped to freezing point.All members of CP9, except the unconscious Blueno, almost simultaneously entered combat stance, their gazes fixed on this uninvited guest!Because this guy in front of them had defeated Blueno, whose Doriki value was not low, and seemingly with great ease.Even though the guy in front of them looked completely relaxed, they dared not be careless. Because Luffy was completely different from the petty thieves they had encountered before.Having worked in Water 7 for several years, they had, of course, encountered pirates. Those pirates were all guys with bounties in the tens of millions, not weak, but Lucci and the others could easily deal with them.For a long time, they had looked down on those pirates.
