While the fire raged at Galley-La HQ, several carpenters were around a building that had collapsed a few minutes ago.
"Hey, anyone know what happened here?"
"I don't know! It seems that the building was cut in two and then collapsed."
"Cut in two? Don't talk nonsense! It's impossible."
Suddenly, a small stone among the huge pile of debris began to move. Then, several pieces of walls were ejected to the sides. Frightened, the carpenters stepped back, as they saw a hand emerge from the ground.
Managing to extricate his body from the debris that covered it, Loke showed his face and the upper part of his bloody body.
" Que ... ? "
" There is someone. "
"Hey! Are you okay?"
Ignoring the carpenters, Loke further extracts his body from the debris. And, thus, the carpenters saw him extracting the bodies of Lucy, Raynare and Eevee. All were injured due to the collapse of the building. Still having her wings visible, Raynare only had two wings still intact, while those that had been cut off by Araga were crushed under the rubble.
" Women ? "
"Hey! This woman... She's Raynare, the fallen angel."
"She's part of Mugiwara's crew."
"Why did they get crushed by this building?"
Continuing to ignore the carpenters, Loke forced himself to his feet. Then, forcing himself to put Raynare on his back, he carried Lucy's body in his arms, all the while murmuring.
"I'm sorry, Lucy! I would have...I should have protected you better."
Then, getting ready to walk, he started looking for Luffy and the others. However, he was surprised to see one of the carpenters position himself in front of him.
"Hey! Are you a friend of Mugiwara?"
"What do you want from me?" The spirit asked with a skeptical look.
Seeming thoughtful, the carpenter finally affirmed.
"Iceberg-san asked us to heal Mugiwara's companions! Some of your friends are not far from HQ!"
" Huh ? "
"Robin…she sacrificed herself?"
Having listened to Iceberg's explanations, Nami ended up digging her fingers into the ground, while she gritted her teeth.
"I knew it! After everything Robin had told us and after learning about her past, I knew Robin would never have joined the government without a real reason."
Feeling angry with herself, she roared.
"She protected us from CP9 and the buster-call! And we...we weren't able to protect her! Robin didn't betray us! It was us who betrayed the hope that managed to born in her, since the day she joined us."
Staring at Nami, she roared.
"I refuse to leave her at Cipher Pol! We must free Robin."
"How do you plan to do it?" Iceberg asked, glancing at Bruno and Chopper. "Your friends are injured! Plus, Roronoa and Mugiwara were ejected I don't know where."
"We're not the only members of our crew." Nami retorted. "Besides, even if he had been thrown halfway around the world, Luffy would still have the strength to come back here to save one of his friends! We have no reason to worry about him. "
"Maybe, but your enemy isn't just anyone! It's CP9! In other words, you're about to fight a World Government organization! Do you really understand what that means?"
Frowning his eyebrows, he assured.
"Even if you are pirates, I doubt that the world government will consider you a real threat! But if you ever decide to fight against CP9, it will change public opinion about you! You will be considered wanted criminals by all! You will declare war on the whole world."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't scare us." Nami assured. "Anyway, when Luffy and the others know the truth, they will be stronger than ever."
" Oye, Nami. "
Turning, Nami saw Loke walking towards her while carrying Lucy and Raynare.
"Loke? What happened? Why are Raynare and Lucy like this?"
Placing the bodies of the two women on the ground, Loke sat down to catch his breath.
"We fought against a member of CP9! It was a teenage girl named Araga! Unfortunately, she managed to defeat us."
Seeing Raynare and Lucy's state, Nami couldn't help but lose her motivation somewhat.
"Even Raynare was defeated? Damn it! We only have Sanji, Gin, Velvet and Wiper left! I doubt the others can deal with these guys."
"I don't know." Loke admitted. "These people have powers that defy human limits! Plus, some of them have eaten devil fruits."
Then glancing at Chopper, who was still unconscious, the spirit declared.
"If your doctor is injured, that might complicate things! Capricorn and Virgo can just bring some medicine and practice first aid! It will take some time for Lucy and the others to recover from their injuries."
Yet as he spoke, the spirit felt a pleasant sensation appear in its body. Feeling the same, Nami seemed to feel her wounds and burns disappear.
" That ... ? "
Stunned, Iceberg looked towards Hatterene. Having regained consciousness and standing up, the pokemon had created a purple aura around her, which affected everyone around her.
Hatterene use HEAL PULSE.
Standing still, the pirates and carpenters felt their wounds heal as some of their energy was restored. Finally, when Hatterene stopped her attack, several people on the ground began to move.
Still coughing up blood, Bruno finally opened his eyes.
"CP9!" He roared, trying to stand up.
But immediately, he roared in pain, feeling his wounds ache.
"Calm down! They're gone." Nami told him.
Feeling much better than before, Nami clenched her fists several times, while the pain she felt earlier was almost gone.
"Amazing! I didn't know Hatterene could do that."
However, having exhausted all the strength she had left, Hatterene finally lost consciousness and was about to fall to the ground. However, before that happened, Paulie was the one to grab her to stop her from falling. Having also just regained consciousness, the carpenter still felt his legs trembling because of his injuries. However, he affirmed.
"Hey, Ghost! Thanks for what you did! Don't worry, I'll be able to compensate you! I'll find Mugiwara and then we'll kick these bastards' ass! You can trust me."
"Hatte..." The pokemon said softly, before losing consciousness.
It was at this moment that Chopper and Lucy regained consciousness.
"My head." The reindeer complained.
"Huh? Why am I here?" Lucy asked, noticing that she was no longer on the roof from earlier. "And what is this fire?"
"We don't have time." Nami stated. "Listen, we absolutely have to find Robin."
"What are you saying?" Vivi asked, having a den-den mushi in her hand.
Also having a den-den mushi in his hand, Sanji declared.
"I'm at the station and it seems I did well to trust my instincts."
Despite being hidden, Sanji could see the sea train from where he was. And, inside one of the cars, he could see Robin. Unfortunately, many agents were also at the station and Sanji knew that a few members of CP9 were there too. As a result, he decided to call for reinforcements.
However, only Vivi and Velvet had answered his calls.
"Robin-chwan is here! Get to the station as quickly as possible! And try to contact Wiper! He won't be too much, but I can't contact him."
" Okay ! "
Immediately, Karue left the dock where he was and rushed towards the station.
"Robin, I'm coming." Vivi affirmed, while feeling the wind slap her face.
Jumping from roof to roof, Bellamy ends up stopping not far from the Water-7 station.
"Damn it! Why do I have fun chasing these guys?"
Staying at a reasonable distance, the blond saw Lucci and the others arriving at the station, while carrying Usopp and Franky.
"Let me go." The cyborg roared, struggling in vain.
"If you don't release me, my 8,000 men will neutralize you." Usopp affirmed.
"Why did these guys capture Long-Nose?" Bellamy wondered. "Is this a bait to lure Mugiwara to them?"
Curious, Bellamy jumped again to land on the roof of the station. Then, waiting a few minutes, he entered one of the upper floors of the building. But as soon as he entered he saw a Navy soldier patrolling the hallway.
"What?" The man wondered.
That was all he could say before being attacked by Bellamy. Striking his face with his fist, the pirate stopped him from betraying his presence. Then, being discreet, he went from corridor to corridor, knocking out a few people he passed.
However, he finally had to stop when he reached the entrance hall. There, many Navy and World Government soldiers appeared to be guarding the area, preventing anyone from getting there without being detected.
"What's going on here? Why are so many soldiers here?"
Suddenly, he jumped, feeling a hand clasped over his mouth.
"HMMMM? " He shouted, preparing to turn around to strike his attacker.
"Not a sound, Baka-my." A voice ordered him.
"Huh?" The pirate was surprised, hearing this nickname given to him by a group of people.
Seeing him calm down, Sanji let go of him.
"Now is not the time to be spotted."
"It's your fault." Bellamy retorted. "I almost had a heart attack because of you."
"What are you doing here?" Sanji wanted to know, lighting a cigarette. "I thought we weren't destined to cross paths again."
"I don't even know why I'm here." Bellamy confessed. "I ran into a bunch of strange guys and saw them fighting the guy with the bazooka."
"Huh? Wiper? Where is he?"
"He was defeated by these guys and thrown to the other side of the island."
"Tssss! He was defeated." Sanji growled. "Which means I couldn't count on him to get Robin-chwan back."
"She was captured too?" Bellamy wondered.
"What do you mean "too"? "Sanji was surprised.
"These guys kidnapped Long-nose and another person I don't know."
" What ? Usopp ? "
At this moment, the soldiers began to become agitated.
"There they are, there they are."
"These are the members of CP9."
Looking at the entrance hall, Sanji and Bellamy saw Lucci and the others arriving walking, while still carrying Franky and Usopp.
"It's those guys." Bellamy stated.
At this moment, Fosha and Araga joined their comrades.
"You late." Fosha affirmed.
"We had some unexpected events." Kaku admitted.
"Grrrr! FOSHA!" Franky roared. "You work for these scoundrels too?"
"Huh?" The former waitress was surprised. "Why is Franky here?"
"He is the cause of our unforeseen events." Kaku affirmed. "He's the one who holds the blueprints we're looking for."
Hearing this, Araga twirled her cane, while noticing.
"Am I to understand that our mission is not complete?"
"It's finished." Lucci retorted. "Now that Cuttie Flam is captured, we're going to let the World Government question him into confessing the location of the blueprints! Plus, we're bringing Nico Robin back with us! Is she on the train?"
"Of course." Fosha assured. "Coro-chan kept her promise and did nothing to try and escape."
"Great! We can leave."
At this moment, Lucci saw Nero and Ohgi in front of them.
"What about these two?" he asked, noticing that they weren't wearing Navy or Cipher Pol uniforms.
"Lucci-san..." Nero called, bowing slightly to him. "I'm Nero, the new recruit of CP9."
"New recruit?" Lucci repeated. "I wasn't aware of that."
"Huh... yet I handle 4 Rokushiki techniques with perfection."
Hearing this, Lucci frowned.
"4 techniques? So you're just incapable! In the future, avoid talking to me."
" What ? "
Ignoring him, Lucci then directed his gaze towards Ohgi.
" And you ? "
Having the bad idea of meeting his gaze, Ohgi couldn't help but feel frozen. Just by staring at him, Lucci gave off a truly murderous aura that completely froze the man. He felt like he was facing a real predator.
"Huh...I...I'm part of the Black Knights."
Seeing him shaking like a leaf, Lucci growled in displeasure.
"If everyone else is like you, your group is worthless."
Then, without giving Oghi time to react, he passed him, leaving the man alone with his trembling that he was unable to control.
"Let's leave immediately." Lucci announced. "I have no interest in staying in this city any longer."
"Aye!" Corgi assured. "From what I understand, from Fosha-san, pirates are constantly harassing you! Therefore, to ensure that he cannot carry out any harm against us, we will leave several men here, while the others board the sea train with you."
Shrugging, Lucci retorted.
"It's not like they can do much about these pirates."
Getting ready to board the train, he heard a strange robotic voice.
"Identification required."
Coming out of the train, a small dog made entirely of metal positioned itself in front of Lucci and seemed to scan him.
"Identification required." The metal dog repeated.
"What is this?" Lucci asked.
"Huh...this is a security system that was just granted to us." Corgi stated. "This is prototype number 32, nicknamed "Pouky"! This is one of Vegapunk's inventions. "
"Vegapunk?" Kaku wondered, looking at the metallic dog. "Is this a weapon of war?"
"Indeed." Corgi agreed. "This dog may be small and seem harmless, but he is still strong enough to match the power of an entire battalion of soldiers! He will be guarding the same train car as Nero-san."
Still scanning the faces of the newcomers, Pouky finally declared.
"Analysis complete! Reconnaissance of agents Rob Lucci... Kaku... Blueno... Kalifa... CP9 members! Authorization to board the sea train granted."
Then, like a real dog, he lay down on his stomach, showing that he did not fear the slightest danger.
"This is the first time I've seen a real Vegapunk invention." Blueno confessed.
"To tell the truth, I've always wanted to visit his laboratory." Kaku said.
Uninterested in this, Lucci ended up getting on the sea train, followed by the others.
Seeing this, Sanji couldn't help but groan.
"Usopp...even though he left the crew, I can confirm that he continues to act like a nuisance."
"Huh? He left your crew?" Bellamy wondered. "Hey, it's only been two days since we arrived on this island! What happened?"
"Whatever." Sanji retorted. "All you need to know is that these guys are our enemies and we're going to have to fight them to save Robin-chwan! And eventually Usopp."
"Us?" Bellamy repeated, pointing at himself. "Hey, wait a second! If you forgot, I remind you that I'm not part of your crew! I helped you in Skypiea to survive and I fought against Foxy's crew because I hated them! However, there's no way I'm going to fight these guys! Who are they? Members of the world government? I have enough worries as it is! So no question of digging my own grave by deciding to accompany you in your suicide plan."
However, he fell silent when he felt Sanji grab his shirt and bring his face closer to his.
"Listen carefully! Ordinarily, I would never ask a guy like you to help me! However, the current situation forces me to do this."
Remembering the humiliating defeat he and his comrades had suffered in the abandoned hangar Sanji declared.
"We saved Robin, but these guys managed to take her back! I hate to say this, but I can't save her on my own! And I have no idea how many of my friends will manage to come here before the sea train leaves the station! As a result, I will fall back on any allies I can find."
Staring at Bellamy with a terrifying look, he declared.
"I grant you the choice to help me! But if you refuse, I will never let you leave this station alive! Ultimately, you have no choice."
"You're completely crazy." Bellamy retorted, hitting his arm to make him let go. "This situation doesn't concern me. I don't understand what's happening, but I refuse to help you! Mugiwara and I are enemies! Have you forgotten that?"
"Since when did Luffy consider you your enemy?" Sanji questioned him.
" Huh ? "
Immediately, Bellamy couldn't help but remember Luffy's face as the captain asked him to join his crew.
"Hey, Baka-my! If you want, you can stay with us."
widening his gaze, Bellamy remained still, while Sanji affirmed.
When we left Skypiea, Luffy could have thrown you into the sea! And instead, he allowed you to stay on our boat! Seriously, don't you think you owe him a debt! Today is your chance to repay him what you owe him. "
"Don't make fun of me! Do you really want me to die for this?"
"Aren't you a pirate?" Sanji roared. "It might be time for you to behave like one! Considering the wimp that you are, I understand why Doflamingo doesn't have the slightest respect for you."
widening his eyes again, Bellamy had no trouble remembering the last conversation he had with the Shichibukai, while Doflamingo had had no respect for him. Only Luffy had interested him.
"You always thought you were the best, until Luffy beat you." Sanji remarked. "And since Jaya, I am sure that the number of defeats you have experienced have weakened the confidence you had in yourself! However, it is thanks to this that we can see the difference in motivation that we have within ourselves."
Staring at Bellamy, he questioned him.
"Are you ready to act like a man or will you gradually act like a coward in order to salvage what little self-esteem you have left?"
As the fire was finally brought under control, Nami had just told what she had learned from Iceberg.
"Robin sacrificed himself for us?" Lucy repeated.
"Robin doesn't hate us." Chopper understood, while sobbing. " I'm so glad. "
"However, this doesn't help our situation." Bruno affirmed.
Thoughtfully, the man declared.
"Robin allowed herself to be captured to save us and we want her back! However, CP9 remains a problem."
Thinking back to their first or second confrontation against them, he affirmed.
"We fought hard against them, and we lost twice! Even if we manage to find Robin, these guys could very well defeat us again! Besides, we need to know where they went and where to go."
"Knowing this is not complicated."
Approaching the pirates, Iceberg assured.
"Currently, it is impossible to leave the island by boat! Even the strongest ship will never be able to cope with the Aqua Laguna! The only way to leave the island is by Sea Train."
" Sea train ? "
"Yes! And in fact, a train has been reserved this evening by the world government! It is leaving for Enies Lobby, that is where the CP9 HQ is located."
"So, it's definitely on this train that we can find Robin." Lucy understood.
"When is this train due to leave Water-7?" Nami asked.
"He has to leave the station at 11 p.m.."
"But, it's in half an hour."
"If we miss this train, would it be possible to take another one to get to Enies-Lobby?" Lucy asked.
"Impossible." Iceberg retorted. "Before midnight, the Aqua Laguna will allow the Sea-train to leave the island! But after that, its strength will be so great that even the sea-train will not be able to cope with it! As a result, the station will be temporarily closed ! So if you miss this train, you will be unable to leave the island for an indefinite period of time."
"Then you just have to delay the train's departure." Nami said.
"Impossible! I told you that the train had been reserved by the world government! Even if I try to intervene, they will make sure to leave at the scheduled time! They will refuse to give the slightest annoyance to Nico Robin from flee. "
"We have no choice." Loke said. "We have to go to the station."
Getting to his feet, he moved his arms, while declaring.
"I'm feeling better than before, so I can go there."
"And then?" Asked Bruno. "Even if you go to the station, do you think you will be able to stop CP9."
"We need to act more intelligently." Lucy's spirit retorted. "Rather than fighting CP9, it is better to attack the train's locomotive! If I manage to damage it, the train will not be able to leave! And therefore, even if CP9 manages to defeat me, I would give Mugiwara and the others the opportunity to intervene."
Hearing this, Nami nodded.
"That's a great idea! As long as Robin stays on this island, we can more easily rescue her."
Thinking about this, Bruno nodded before declaring.
"Even if I feel better, I would be unable to fight in my current state! However, my power will be beneficial to us in finding Luffy and the others! I will search the city to find them."
"I'll help you." Chopper assured.
"In that case, I'll go with Loke to stop the train." Lucy said.
"I would do the same." Nami declared.
For her part, remaining silent as she lay on the ground, Raynare seemed thoughtful. Still feeling pain from her severed wings, she declared.
"I need another hour! An hour to allow my wings to regenerate."
Then, thinking of Araga, she let a dark aura surround her.
"And then I'll go kill her."
"Raynare...even if your wings regenerate, your other injuries won't be healed." Lucy remarked.
"It doesn't matter! I would have recovered enough power to atomize her." Affirmed the fallen angel. "She's going to pay for the humiliation she put me through."
"We'll help you too." Paulie assured. "I know perfectly that city and all its shortcuts! I will help you take the shortest route to the station! And the other carpenters will help you find your friends."
" Really ? "
"It's the least I can do after what happened." The man assured.
"Paulie-san...I still don't understand." One of these comrades said.
"Even if these guys didn't want to kill Iceberg-san, we must remember that they are only pirates! Why help them?"
"Besides that, we still need to find Lucci-san and the others! They're probably under the rubble."
Gritting his teeth, Paulie roared.
"Forget Lucci and the others! We'll never see them again."
"Huh?" The carpenters were surprised. " What do you mean ? "
"Just do what you're told." Paulie roared. "Mugiwara and his companions saved Iceberg-san's life! Therefore, stop arguing and go find Mugiwara."
" Huh ... Aye. "
Shortly after, dozens of yagaras appeared in the canal passing not far from HQ. And while Nami climbed into one of them with Paulie, Loke stared at the roofs of the houses, all the while ensuring.
"It will be quicker for me to jump from roof to roof."
"In that case, I'm counting on you to take me to the station as quickly as possible." Lucy affirmed.
Immediately, she was carried like a princess into Loke's arms.
"Lucy-san, I'd be happy to help you." The man assured, as hearts appeared around him.
"Baka!" Lucy growled, hitting him in the head.
However, the next second, Loke made a powerful jump and found himself on the roof of a house. Then, without stopping, he jumped again and again and managed to quickly get away from HQ.
"Sugoi!" Said a carpenter, seeing him leave.
"At this pace, it will take him less than 30 minutes to get to the station." Paulie remarked.
"It's going to be the same for us." Nami stated. "Bruno! Chopper! I'm counting on you to find Luffy."
"Aye!" The duo assured.
