Weapon fruit is rubbish? Have you ever heard of Ryujin Jakka?

"Is this the difference between the Shichibukai and the Death God Generals?"

Nico Robin felt a chill when she saw Crocodile, who looked like he was in a state of collapse and no longer had his usual confidence and arrogance.

Just now, she saw it clearly, and she watched it from beginning to end.

From beginning to end, Crocodile stood on the beach, facing the sea, the air, and the sky, sometimes talking to himself, sometimes expressing himself madly.

I thought I had left the illusion, but in fact I had just entered another illusion.

Obviously, they were all false illusions, but Crocodile could only sink helplessly under the weaving of the mirror flowers and water moons.

"Don Quixote Doflamingo."

"Joracol Mihawk."

"No wonder these arrogant, cruel, powerful, and unreasonable Shichibukai dared not resist and could only obey Rosen's orders after he put collars on them."

After witnessing Crocodile's experience, Nico Robin finally understood.

Why would the Seven Warlords of the Sea, who each have their own ideas and any one of them has the power to conquer an entire country single-handedly, submit to Rosen?

It all happened for one reason.

That is the power of Rosen.

More powerful than the General and the Pirate King.

With this power, supplemented by some other tricks, he completely destroyed the pride of all the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

I have experienced such despair and terror that is hard to describe in words.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea, who had collapsed time and again, could only act like tamed hounds after being collared by Rosen.

"Ah la la la la la."

"Although I was just watching from the side, I can more or less understand Crocodile's despair."

"Even though I know everything is fake, I still can't break free."

Kuzan also felt a chill after seeing Crocodile's miserable condition.

If he had to face Rosen's illusions, he would rather fight two of the Four Emperors at the same time and die heroically than become a prisoner of the illusion, and step by step towards despair and collapse between illusion and reality.

Think of this.

Kuzan suddenly felt more fortunate than ever before.

Yes.

Just be thankful.

He was extremely grateful that Rosen had chosen the navy instead of pirates a year ago.

otherwise.

Now, crawling on the ground like a defeated dog, under the power of Mirror Flower and Water Moon, the one collapsing in despair is not Crocodile, but perhaps himself, the admiral of the navy.

Although he believed that his strength far exceeded Crocodile's, after seeing the Mirror Flower and Water Moon, Kuzan still had no confidence at all.

Not to mention cracking it, there is no way to deal with it.

Tsk

Seeing Crocodile lying on the ground like a dead dog, without raising any sand, Rosen released his Armament Haki with a snap of his fingers, which turned into purple silk threads visible to the naked eye, and tied up Crocodile's body.

"You, what do you want to do?"

When Crocodile saw Rosen's actions, he immediately felt uneasy.

The main thing is that the scene in front of me is really a bit familiar.

It reminded him of a past that he least wanted to recall.

"Let you relive the old experiences."

Rosen knew very well that Crocodile had completely given up and would no longer engage in meaningless activities such as fighting, but that did not mean he would surrender like Donquixote Doflamingo.

and so.

Before putting on a collar, the necessary training steps are still essential.

"you!"

Crocodile's face changed drastically, and he had already guessed what Rosen would do next.

"Calm down first, and then tell me your answer."

Done.

Rosen swung his hand casually, and the domineering silk thread wrapped around Crocodile, dragging him into the air, like a bait hanging on a fish hook, and was thrown into the sea.

puff

With the waves splashing, Crocodile sank into the sea like a stone.

Not to mention that his hands and feet were cut off and his spine was pierced. Even if his limbs were intact, as a user of the fruit ability, he could only close his eyes and wait for death if he fell into the sea.

after all.

Not every fruit ability user is called Kuzan and can freeze the sea.

Not every user of this ability is called Kaido, the strongest creature on land, sea, and air.

Like Crocodile, even if he is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and even if he has the ability of a nature-type fruit, he can do nothing after falling into the sea.

I could only keep my whole body stiff and sink little by little into the depths of the sea.

Simultaneously.

Because his hands and feet were cut off, blood was slowly flowing out of his wounds and rapidly merging into the sea.

"damn it!"

"This guy is just like Whitebeard. He actually used me to fish!"

"No, he's much more ruthless than Whitebeard!"

Crocodile sank motionlessly in the sea, his pupils revealing anger, anxiety, powerlessness, and uneasiness.

Looking at the slowly drifting blood mist, he could fully imagine how excited the nearby sea beasts or sea kings would be after smelling this smell.

as predicted.

After the blood mist drifted away, about five kilometers away from Crocodile, a giant beast crawling in the deep sea suddenly opened its huge pupils.

Cold, cruel, bloodthirsty and exciting.

It was just like a ferocious beast that had just woken up and saw food placed in front of it.

This is a medium-sized sea king.

When it smelled the blood, it immediately swam quickly towards Crocodile's location.

the other side.

After Rosen threw Crocodile into the sea, he looked at Nico Robin who was not far from him while fishing.

"it's your turn."

"Nicole Robin."

Hear this.

Nico Robin's body trembled uncontrollably, like a small fish or shrimp being targeted by a super-large sea king.

Faced with this terrifying existence that was using the King of the Desert as bait to fish in the sea, she simply couldn't muster up any courage to fight.

"so."

"Are you the one who arrested me?"

Nico Robin took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

Years of betrayal and being betrayed have forged a strong will in her, and she did not show any signs of panic or screaming.

"If we want to arrest you, do we need to send out two admirals?"

After hearing this, Rosen asked instead of answering.

"Either they arrest me, or they force me to tell them the location of Hades, and then kill me."

"Right."

"After all, I have been searching for the original text of history, and now I am searching for ancient weapons with Crocodile, which is a taboo of the World Government!"

Nico Robin seemed to have let it go, or rather, she had given it her all.

She actually mustered up the courage to walk up to Rosen, and then sat directly on the ice like him.

"really."

"Whether it's historical texts or ancient weapons, these are all taboos of the World Government."

"but."

Upon hearing this, Rosen nodded slightly, acknowledging what Nicole Robin said, but the next second he changed the subject:

"This is not a taboo in the Navy."

As soon as these words came out.

Nico Robin couldn't help but reveal a trace of surprise on her face.

Is there any difference?

Isn't the World Government the Navy Headquarters?

Isn't the Navy Headquarters the World Government?

Not only her, but to the world, there is no difference between the two.

Because the will of the World Government is the will of the Navy Headquarters.

At least, that was the case in the past.

"Didn't you read the newspaper?"

When Rosen saw Nico Robin's surprised look, he took out a roll of newspaper from the pocket of his coat of justice and threw it over.

After Nicole Robin took the newspaper and opened it, she was immediately stunned by the headline news published in the newspaper.
