Pirates, swordsmen who gradually grow up to liberate the world

The battle between Usopp and Luffy ended quickly.

There is no suspense. After receiving countless attacks, Luffy killed Usopp with one punch, and the Merry was returned to Usopp.

This is also the purpose of this duel.

Watching the Straw Hats abandon the Merry and collectively approach Super Harbor Town, Arthas felt a strong hostility behind him.

Aokiji did not go with CP9 to assassinate Bingshan. He mainly came to the Capital of Seven Waters to monitor Nico Robin's actions.

Now I am interested in Alsace, a strong man who suddenly appeared.

"After my whole body was frozen by my ability, you can drink freely and leisurely so soon?"

Facing the question from Aokiji behind him, Alsace turned around with a whiskey bottle and looked at him: "Don't touch the taboo, Aokiji. Even you and the entire navy can't shake me."

Such a domineering warning made Aokiji tremble, staring at Alsace's red eyes as if they were trapped in hell, being penetrated and seen through, as if the guy in front of him knew everything about him.

"Is this a threat? I didn't expect that there are people like you in this sea now. What is the background of such a powerful momentum?"

The ice blade that instantly condensed in his hand was on guard against Alsace. Aoki's aura was tense at the center of his aura, as if he was about to be attacked at any moment.

"Without any background, he is just a prodigal wandering the sea."

"Prodigal? There are indeed many people like you in the world today. But I just want to ask, why did you claim to be Nico Robin's brother before? With your face, you should be no more than 20 years old."

"She is my sister, my lover, and the place where all my tenderness is stored. I can protect her even in another life. Oh, I forgot to mention, I am already 149 years old, kid."

149 years old? ! Qingzhi was shocked and frowned when he found a scabbard suddenly appeared in Alsace's hand, and he did not dare to attack rashly.

Another life?

Could it be that the boy in front of me has lived for a century? The terrifying aura on his body cannot lie.

"I only have one question, what is the purpose of a guy like you appearing next to the Straw Hats?"

Aokiji will not leave until he gets an answer.

"It's natural for my brother to come to protect his new sister, right? Didn't you let her go 20 years ago? Do you want to stop me?"

He still knows what happened 20 years ago! ?

Aokiji was already sweating profusely in the aura that Alsace unintentionally exuded. Even though he is one of the most powerful men in the Navy, he cannot remain calm in front of a man who seems to be full of flaws and carefree.

Staring at Alsace was only useful; looking at Hell was as suffocating.

Looking at the approaching Straw Hats in the distance, it was not convenient for Aokiji to show up here.

"What's your name?"

"Alsa..."

"His name is Al~, Al~"

"You hundred-year-old female seductress! Don't interrupt me, okay?!" Alsace punched Ella on the head again.

"Smelly old man...it sounds like you are young." Ella squatted on the edge of the chimney, holding the bag on her head with a look of disdain.

"Alma, I remember you. There are so many hidden dragons in this sea."

Knowing that Arthas' purpose was to protect Robin, he was completely relieved. There is no intention to report this discovery to Navy Headquarters.

The green pheasant left quietly. The harbor town returned to peace.

"Al, Aokiji's justice is so heavy. Why would a person with humanity and warmth eat such a cold fruit?"

"He is not an enemy. We are not wanted in this world and our position is neutral."

As long as you don't interfere with the direction of the world, you can still find a place to retire, or change the current combat effectiveness of the Straw Hats?

The Straw Hats left the harbor and climbed onto the stairs to the City of Seven Waters. Everyone except Luffy looked at Alsace on the chimney not far away.

"He has been watching the whole duel there...it's strange, does he look much younger compared to the day?" Nami said as she walked.

"The guy next to me is not Robin either... By the way! Our Robin suddenly disappeared during the day! Could it be related to him?"

Sanji's guess made the Straw Hats stop and look at Arthas drinking on the chimney.

He is very likely to be suspicious.

When everyone was suspicious, Arthas jumped from the chimney to the stairs where they were standing, holding Ella in his arms.

"You were fine during the day, what happened?" Arthas deliberately pretended not to know what happened and asked the Straw Hats.

"The internal conflict has nothing to do with you. Where is Robin? She suddenly disappeared. Was it you?"

At this time, Luffy was furious, grabbed Arthas and asked sharply.

"Oh, you wronged the last person who would have laid a hand on Robin."

"You're suspicious! What about the guy from another time and space, the guy who looks like Robin during the day?"

"died."

All members of the Straw Hats were stunned.

died? What's the meaning? Everyone was in panic.

"You're lying, right? You were obviously together during the day..."

"More than a hundred years have passed in another time and space, and she has naturally died of old age."

Arthas took Luffy's hand away from his robe.

"You obviously haven't changed much! How could she die of old age? You were sneaking up the chimney just now. What were you doing?"

"Hey, Luffy. Don't be so angry. Find a place to calm down first."

"hateful."

To this. Arthas smiled coldly. He didn't refute anything.

Because there are indeed doubts about him that cannot be explained clearly.

Sanji walked up to Alsace, lit a cigarette for himself, and took a puff:

"Sorry. He's not calm right now."

"fine."

"One more thing. I'm afraid we can't understand what you are saying. Did you just say that you returned to your own time and space and spent a hundred years?"

"Correct."

"Sister Robin passed away naturally during the day, right?"

"Yes, she left. She passed away peacefully in my arms."

Speaking of this, Alsace had a hint of complicated emotions in his eyes.

No amount of killing would make him feel anything.

But the death of his beloved sister makes him still a little sad.

Such emotions are easy to detect.

Sanji also felt Arthas' melancholy gaze.

"Okay. Now everything has a clue and logic. I want to ask you, since you said that Sister Robin died of old age, why do you still look young?"

"My physique will not deteriorate with age. Is this enough to convince you?"

It was hard for everyone to believe it, but when they thought about the passionate Robin during the day and the news they learned from Alsace, they didn't think he was lying.

"Yes..., thank you for your answer. The atmosphere in our team is a bit heavy right now, please give us some breathing space."

As one of Luffy's right-hand men, Sanji's rationality is recognized by everyone.

Even facing a woman of Ella's good looks, he just said hello like a gentleman and left.

They didn't ask anything else.

With low morale, he walked silently towards the city.

"The atmosphere is suffocating. Al, let's find a place to stay, too?"

"The bond is tested, that's how it goes."

With that said, he took Ella and followed the Straw Hats to a hotel.

"You two are in room 3-1. Here is the key."

Ella took the key from the front desk clerk.

"Should we rescue Robin? Al, you should know where she is in this time and space, right?"

"No, not for now."
