People are pirates, this navy is not very fair!

Kingdom of Illusia, Town of Walderi.

In a sea view suite in a high-end hotel.

Nico Robin had a frightened expression on her face. She stared at the silver-haired young man with her eyes and took a slight step back.

"Hahaha!"

Seeing this scene, Sephiroth couldn't help but raise his head and laugh a few times before he continued:

"I'm not very interested in your 7900 million bounty.

I was working as a bounty hunter because I was short of money...

However, I am no longer short of money, so you don’t have to worry that I will hand you over to the World Government. "

Sephiroth looked at Nico Robin's worn skirt and shoes, and he couldn't help but sigh.

He finished the chocolate cake on the plate in a few mouthfuls, got up and walked to the closet in the room, took out two suitcases, placed them on the big white bed in the room and opened them.

In one box were several pieces of clothing and masks, and in another box were stacks of Bailey's bills in denominations of [-] yuan.

Sephiroth thought for a moment, took out half of the banknotes from the box containing them, and threw them into another box.

Just like that, he closed the box and placed the remaining half box of banknotes next to the girl.

"There are [-] million Baileys in it. As long as you save some money, it will be enough for you to last a lifetime..."

certainly! Don’t reveal your wealth, I suggest you hide your money in different places and retrieve it when you need it..."

As if he had thought of something, Sephiroth looked at the girl's slightly immature cheeks. He took out a white half-face mask from the inside of his leather jacket and placed it in front of her:

"Also...can't you wear a mask when you go out?

Do you really like being chased around?

Wear a mask that can cover your whole face, or half your face. As long as you are not an acquaintance, it will be difficult to recognize you..."

"Why...? Why do you want to help me to this extent...?"

Nico Robin stared blankly at this chattering silver-haired young man.

Until now, she doesn't even know the other person's name...

She didn't understand why the other party was so nice to her?

This is no longer just seeing a stray cat and wanting to help out of sympathy and pity, right...?

Hearing this, Sephiroth was stunned for a moment. He thought for a moment, then smiled and stretched out his right hand, gently caressing Nico Robin's head, and explained:

"For you, this may be a huge help, but...

For me, it’s really just a random favor!

Affected by factors such as identity, status, wealth, situation, etc., everyone has different standards for what they can do casually..."

As if thinking of something, Nico Robin mustered up the courage and asked:

"Then can you take me in? I will try my best to help you!"

Looking at the expectant eyes of the black-haired girl, Sephiroth was silent for a moment before he spoke:

"I'm sorry! Nico Robin...

I know everything about what happened to O'Hara, but...

Right now, I have no intention of being an enemy of the world government.

If the world government finds out about me taking you in, it will cause me a lot of trouble. "

"Oh~! I understand..."

Nico Robin lowered his head in disappointment, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

Just now, she thought she could finally end this life of wandering and running around...

Seeing this situation, Sephiroth, who had little conscience left, felt inexplicably uneasy. He sighed softly:

"Alas!... Although I can't take you in, I can teach you to live better in the dark... Do you want to learn?"

"Hmm~!"

Nico Robin nodded and agreed without any hesitation.

The four years of wandering life have made her suffer a lot. Now she just wants to better protect herself and work hard to survive...

Nico Robin looked at the silver-haired young man and said seriously:

"By the way, what's your name?

After talking to you so much, I still don’t know your name..."

"Karl D. Sephiroth...

Speaking of names, I think you need to give yourself a fake name in the future. "

Nico Robin put her index finger on her chin and said thoughtfully:

"Then what kind of fake name do you think is better for me?"

Hearing this, Sephiroth was also in trouble, so the girl asked him this question.

After all, he’s not very good at naming things!

He thought about it and decided that it would be easier to use a ready-made name!

Sephiroth thought that Nico Robin would become proficient in intelligence espionage and assassination, and could be considered a female assassin...

So, he tentatively said:

"Huh!?...Amunet...how about it?"

"Why is it called this name?" Nico Robin asked curiously.

Sephiroth gently stroked the girl's black hair and slowly explained:

"Because she is an assassin, proficient in assassination and intelligence spying...

And I am also going to teach you these things, hoping that you can master them and become proficient in them in the future. "

……

In the next nine days, apart from going out every day to inquire about Moria, Sephiroth squatted in the sea view suite and taught Nico Robin.

Camouflage, assassination, tracking, survival in the wild, fruit development, two-color domineering, six styles...

In short, Sephiroth felt that Nico Robin had knowledge that might be useful, so he poured it all into the girl's head.

And Nico Robin is worthy of being a genius who was able to obtain the title of scholar at the age of 8. His comprehension and memory are very high, and he is also very studious, which makes him, a young man who is a teacher for the first time, feel quite stressed...

For Nico Robin, the nine days with Sephiroth were the most relaxing days she had spent in four years!

In addition to studying, she doesn't need to worry about going hungry, nor does she need to worry about someone coming to catch her at any time...

…………

Day [-], morning.

In a suite with ocean view.

Sephiroth opened the door, pushed the dining cart that the waiter had placed on the corridor in, and closed the door.

He placed the bread, fruit platter, milk, and other foods from the dining car on the dining table one by one.

Finally, Sephiroth picked up the newspaper on the dining car, sat down at the dining table, and quickly read the contents.

"In order to curb the momentum of the Great Pirate Age, the World Government formally established the King's Shichibukai System...

For pirates recruited into the Shichibukai, the wanted order for themselves and their subordinates will be suspended, and the World Government will no longer pursue all the crimes they have committed before.

Members of the Shichibukai have the power to plunder countries that are not part of the World Government..."

Sephiroth looked at the news reports in the newspaper. He couldn't help but curled his lips and said to himself:

The King's Shichibukai System is finally here!

The era of great pirates is getting more and more intense. The navy's strength has long been stretched thin. In addition, the frequent battles between naval soldiers and pirates have resulted in numerous casualties and extremely high casualty rates. Even many general-level officers have died in battle, so many people are not firm in their determination. soldiers have chosen to retire...

The Navy's extremely high casualty rate has also affected the recruitment of new forces. The number of people signing up to join the Navy has dropped off a cliff every year, while the pirates have countless ambitious newcomers who have been hung up on the blackboard. Sail, rushing to the sea.

Therefore, the World Government established the Shichibukai system with the intention of using pirates to fight against pirates.

The World Government attempts to use some insignificant power to recruit pirates who have shown great strength for their own use!

If those members of the Shichibukai lose their usefulness, they will choose to give up and obliterate them without hesitation...

After reading the news headlines, Sephiroth flipped through some more news, such as the story about a town called Rosanna in the Western Sea being massacred by pirates, or the story about how the grave of a recently deceased swordsman in the Kingdom of Illusia was dug. of……

Nico Robin, who was wearing a light blue dress, picked up the milk jug, poured him a glass of milk, and placed it in front of him before she asked.

"Sephiroth, what are we learning today?"

"Nowadays……"

The silver-haired young man glanced at the black-haired girl. He pondered for a while before speaking:

"It's time for me to leave..."

Hearing this, Nico Robin paused slightly as she picked up the cup to drink milk, and a sad emotion arose in her heart...
