"What does that mean?" Luffy asked.
Facing him, the four burais aimed their enormous cannon at the pirate. Being in one of the Knightmares, Yoshida contacted Ohgi.
"Ohgi, the special cannon is ready for use."
Hearing this, Ohgi moved his Knightmare towards Luffy.
"Mugiwara...I think you've created enough chaos here! As a fighter, I would like to show you my respect by capturing you without having to kill you."
"As if I was going to let myself be captured." Luffy retorted. "I have to find Robin."
"If you refuse to cooperate, we will be forced to kill you."
"You can always try, but you'll never succeed."
Hearing this, Ohgi sighed, before whispering.
" Yoshida ! "
" Let's go. "
Immediately, Luffy saw the soldiers behind him begin to back away. Then, the burais facing Luffy activated the enormous cannon they were carrying.
"Aim at the target and...PULL!"
Similar to Wiper's weapon, the massive cannon created what looked like a laser. Widening his eyes, Luffy saw the attack heading towards him, before exploding upon hitting its target. Clinging to the roofs of the buildings, the soldiers stationed on the buildings felt powerful gusts of wind hit their faces, while debris flew around them.
" Sugoi ! "
"This cannon is really very powerful."
"Black Knights are definitely not a comedy group."
Finally, when the gusts of wind stopped, the soldiers looked towards Luffy, to see if the attack had managed to kill him. Looking through the smoke, they saw the silhouette of Luffy lying on the ground. Covered in burns, the pirate appeared to have been violently hit by the attack. Immediately, cries of joy were heard.
" YEAHHHHH ! "
"We got Mugiwara."
Noticing the same thing, Ohgi was going to contact Zero. However, he stopped when he saw Luffy move his hand. Moaning in pain, Luffy placed his hands on the ground, before getting up.
"Damn it! They managed to hit me."
"He...Is he still alive?" A soldier wondered.
"This guy isn't normal."
"Grrrr!" Yoshida growled. "If that doesn't finish him off, we have no choice! We'll fire with maximum power."
"Huh...Yoshida, for this you need to reload the cannon for at least five minutes." One of his comrades said.
Hearing this, Ohgi ordered.
"I'm speaking to all soldiers! Stop Mugiwara from moving! He must remain still for the next five minutes."
"AYE!" The soldiers shouted.
Immediately, the cannons on the rooftops began pelting Luffy with cannonballs. Seeing this, Luffy quickly jumped to avoid them. But already, around ten soldiers ran behind Luffy, with sabers in hand.
"Slash Mugiwara."
However, turning towards them, Luffy stretched his leg.
" WHIP ! "
Hit with force, the soldiers were thrown backwards, before being replaced by a burai who threw its Harken Slash towards Luffy. Seeing the sharp weapon being thrown towards him, Luffy placed his hands on the sides of the weapon and managed to stop it.
"What?" The Knightmare pilot wondered.
Then, he was horrified when he saw Luffy throw the weapon in his direction. The next second, the Harken Slash sliced the robot's abdomen, causing numerous sparks to appear. Hearing alarms activate, the pilot of the burai activated the ejection from his cockpit. And as soon as he got out of his robot, it exploded, making the soldiers around it retreat.
Seeing this, Luffy ran in that direction.
"I have to get out of here."
However, some soldiers on the roofs started shooting towards Luffy. Not paying attention to this, Luffy wanted to let his rubber body stop the bullets. However, her eyes widened when one of the bullets hit his shoulder before piercing through him. Feeling the pain and blood flowing, Luffy cried out before slapping his hand on his wound.
" What ? "
"He ate a devil fruit." A soldier stated. "We must kill him with our seastone bullets."
" Aye ! "
Understanding why he had been injured, Luffy was forced to deliver the other bullets. However, wanting it to stop, he clenched his fist, before punching the facade of one of the buildings. Immediately, cracks appeared all the way to the top of the building. Surprised, the soldiers on the roof of the building saw the cracks before hearing strange noises. Finally, with a single punch, Luffy damaged the building enough to destroy it.
Screaming in fear, the other soldiers saw the house collapsing and threatening to crush them.
" Pay attention ! "
" RUN ! "
Wanting to take advantage of this, Luffy ran towards the destroyed building, in order to climb it and escape from this trap. Unfortunately, a grenade appeared right in front of him before exploding. Immediately, a powerful flash dazzled the entire area, burning Luffy's eyes.
"AHHHHHHH! My eyes."
Seeing him stop, the soldiers posted on the other roofs pointed the cannons at him.
"Time to finish him off! PULL!"
" REGULUS ... "
Seeing a second flash appear, several soldiers on the rooftops screamed before being hit by a ray of light.
" ... BEAM ! "
Hitting a cannon, the attack created an explosion, while Loke landed on one of the roofs.
"Sorry for the delay, Mugiwara."
"Who is this guy?" Asked a soldier.
"He's probably a pirate."
"We must capture him."
Immediately, all the soldiers on the rooftops pointed their weapons at Loke.
"Stop him from saving Mugiwara."
Meanwhile, still having his eyes closed, Luffy had difficulty understanding what was happening around him. Being able to only rely on his ears, Luffy heard a burai coming towards him.
Ducking down at the last minute, Luffy dodged a Harken Slash, which passed over him. Then, he stretched his arms back, before hitting the robot.
" BAZOOKA ! "
Hit violently, the burai was thrown backwards, before collapsing on its back. But immediately, around twenty soldiers positioned themselves in front of Luffy, as did two other burais.
Preventing any escape, they fired again. Unable to see, Luffy tried to dodge the bullets but ended up feeling another projectile pass through his leg and get stuck in his body. Letting out another scream, Luffy fell to his knees as the seastone in the bullet weakened him.
"I…I can't move."
"He's immobilized." One of the soldiers said.
"This is our chance."
For his part, growling in displeasure, Loke attacked several soldiers, before being able to run towards Luffy. However, using grappling hooks, two burais climbed onto the roofs of the building and blocked Loke's path to prevent him from going to help Luffy.
Seeing this, the soldiers aimed their cannons at Luffy again.
"We have to put him down now."
" LET'S GO ! "
Unable to defend himself, Luffy was surrounded by hundreds of soldiers who targeted him, as did the burais who accompanied them. This time, everything seemed to be over for Luffy.
"I...I..." Luffy stuttered, as he felt weaker and weaker.
Feeling like his body was getting heavier and heavier, Luffy was unable to make the slightest movement. He wanted to move, but couldn't. Why did he want to move anyway?
Feeling his mind becoming more and more foggy, Luffy had great difficulty thinking. What had he come here to do? Why was he facing all these soldiers? Where were his friends? Why was he going to die here?
Trying to cope with the pain, Luffy felt his eyes close. However, Robin's face immediately appeared in his mind. Immediately opening his eyes, Luffy regained his fighting spirit and forced himself to get up.
"I…I can't give up."
Seeing him get back to his feet, the soldiers shouted.
"He's still fit to fight."
"That damn pirate...when is he going to give up?"
Having a bad feeling, Ohgi ordered.
" PULL ! "
Seeing them about to shoot, Luffy took a deep breath before shouting.
" GET OUT ! "
"And this is how the illustrious Spandam conceived an ingenious plan to capture Nico Robin." Affirmed the commander of CP9. "Of course, dozens of Navy soldiers were defeated by this woman! However, it was obvious that a man like me had no reason to be afraid of this demon child! If the world can now be quiet, it's thanks to my extraordinary prowess."
Speaking for over thirty minutes, Spandam had no idea what was going on at Enies Lobby. All he cared about was watching Morgans write in his notebook, while his assistants took photos. Laughing inwardly, he couldn't wait to see his picture in tomorrow's paper.
Certainly, Spandam was obliged to make the world believe that he still commanded CP5. However, what was the difference? The name that everyone can read in the newspapers will be his. And after that, Spandam was certain that an important place within CP0 will be dedicated to him.
For his part, Morgans struggled not to sigh in boredom. Why had he come here? If it was to hear Spandam strutting like that, he could have written an article himself that would have perfectly succeeded in flattering his ego. However, Morgans was patient for a reason.
Spandam didn't interest him. However, it was not the same thing regarding Nico Robin. Morgans was close to one of Ohara's only survivors. an occasion like this would never happen again. If Morgans wanted to have an interview with Robin, it was now or never.
Suddenly standing up, Spandam walked towards the window of his office, continuing to speak. Seeing him turn his back, Morgans decided to discreetly give his notebook to Phoggy. Then, without the slightest sound, the journalist got up before heading towards the door.
Letting his assistants continue the interview without Spandam being able to notice, Morgans managed to find himself out of the room.
"Tssss! Next time I'll ask to be paid more if I have to continue interviewing assholes like him."
Suddenly he heard voices.
"Don't move, Coro-chan."
Being chained to a wall not far from Spandam's office, Robin sat next to Franky. But while the cyborg remained silent, Fosha was running a cotton ball across her friend's cheek.
"With this, you will feel better." Fosha affirmed.
Remaining still, Robin simply had his gaze downcast. Seeing this, Fosha affirmed.
"Have no fear! If you are afraid of getting hit again, know that it will not happen again! My father is not like Spandam, he will prevent anyone within CP0 from hurting you! On the contrary ! A recruit like you will be treated with respect."
"CP0?" Morgans was surprised.
Showing a big smile, the man remained hidden behind a wall, while he took out a den-den mushi from his pocket to record the conversation.
"The Cipher Pol is ready to make a pact with Nico Robin? So the rumors are true! The government is not looking for Nico Robin because of the fact that she has sunk several Navy ships! In fact, she is the only one no one in the world who can lead them to the Ancient Weapons."
Suddenly, a den-den mushi was heard. Reaching through her clothes, Fosha took it out before lighting it.
"Father." She rejoiced.
"Fosha…is the prisoner with you?"
"Yes! Coro-chan can hear you." Fosha assured him.
Despite the fact that Robin remained silent, Fosha presented her den-den mushi, while Edmond's voice was heard.
" Nico Robin... it's an honor for me to be able to speak to you! But I don't think you're the type of person to appreciate flattery! So, I'm announcing my proposal directly to you! Normally, he was expected that the Ciphel Pol will deliver you directly to Impel Down so that you can be interrogated there and give us all your knowledge, before having you executed! However, I found this completely absurd! Nico Robin, instead of you execute, it would be more beneficial for all of us to keep you among us and make you a member of CP0. "
Immediately, laughter was heard.
"HAHAHAHA!" Franky sneered. "When your daughter told us that Robin was going to become a member of CP0, I thought it was a joke! However, I realize that she was serious."
Stopping laughing, Franky groaned.
"After Spandam's betrayal, why would Nico Robin trust the Cipher Pol again! For my part, you make me want to vomit."
Immediately, Fosha punched him in the face.
" Shut up. "
Raising her gaze somewhat, Robin asked.
"And why would I accept?"
" First of all, your life will be saved and you will avoid being tortured. "
Uninterested in that, Robin retorted.
"If it helps, just hold a gun to my forehead! I promise to stay still until you kill me."
" Huh? I'm surprised that a woman who had escaped the Navy for 20 years suddenly decided to let herself be killed without reacting. "
"I'm tired of living." Robin said simply. "So I have no reason to live another day."
" What if I granted you total immunity? " Edmond asked.
" How so ? "
" I could grant you exceptional permission to allow the government to find the secret of the Void Century. "
Hearing this, Robin's eyes widened.
" What ? "
" The world government doesn't want this secret to be revealed to the world! But, in recent years, many scientists have done research on this forgotten century and several times, the secret has almost been discovered! And to prevent this, It becomes obvious that the best way to proceed is to find all of the poneglyphs and destroy them. "
Pausing briefly, he declared.
"Nico Robin, we are asking you to help us find all the poneglyphs! You will have the right to study them before their destruction and you will finally be able to obtain the answers you wanted! And in exchange for your silence, you will then be able to live a normal life, without ever being chased again! Isn't that what you want?"
Still being surprised by this, Robin remained completely still. Noticing that she was hesitant, Fosha proposed.
"Father, it's better to wait a few minutes, while she can think! Either way, I'm sure she will accept.
"In that case, I'll give you an hour, Nico Robin! If you accept, you can be taken to CP0! Otherwise, real hell will await you! I advise you to make the right choice."
Then the den-den mushi fell silent.
Having heard the entire conversation, Morgans smile grew longer. Just the last three minutes he had spent here were more than worth the boredom caused by the Spandam interview. Morgans had a recording in his possession that was literally worth gold.
But suddenly his smile disappeared as he felt a strange aura that made him tremble slightly.
"Huh?" He wondered, looking towards a window.
" GET OUUUUUUUUUUUTTTTTTTTTTT ! "
Screaming at the top of his lungs, Luffy surprised the soldiers, who remained motionless. Being like them, Loke only stared at Luffy. Finally, when uttering this cry seemed to have drained the last of his strength, the pirate fell to his knees. However, he was not the only one.
While they remained still for a few moments, the soldiers closest to Luffy suddenly collapsed. Falling to the ground, they lost consciousness, much to everyone's surprise. Very quickly, the other soldiers in the area also lost consciousness.
Feeling his own body trembling without understanding the reason, Loke saw the soldiers on the roofs meet the same fate and fell on the roofs. Finally, among the 1000 soldiers present, barely fifty men remained conscious.
" W ... W ... What ? "
"What just happened?"
As surprised as they were, Ohgi felt his entire body tremble. being protected inside their burais, he and his companions looked at Luffy, while they tried to understand what had just happened.
"Is it Mugiwara who...?"
"It's impossible! He just screamed! That's not what knocked all those people out."
For his part, having dug his fingers into the wound in his leg, Luffy let out a cry before removing the bullet that was stuck there. Making her fall to the ground, Luffy breathed a sigh of relief, feeling his strength return.
" It's better. "
Then, getting up again, he affirmed.
"I've wasted enough time here."
However, Ohgi heard Yoshida contacting him.
"Ohgi! The five minutes are up! We're going to fire the cannon."
at that moment, the cannon was activated.
"It's over for you, Mugiwara."
Turning back towards the gigantic cannon, Luffy retorted.
"I won't get fooled again."
Then he placed his fist on the ground.
" GEAR SECOND ! "
Seeing smoke appear around Luffy, Ohgi had a bad feeling. Immediately, he threw his harken slash towards the pirate. However, much faster than before, Luffy suddenly disappeared, before appearing in front of the giant cannon. stretching his arm back before bringing them back with all his might.
" JET BAZOOKA ! "
" PULL ! "
The next moment, Luffy's hands slammed into the cannon as he fired. And this caused a huge explosion that shook the entire area. "
"Morgans-san ! "
Now being walking around inside the tower, Morgans saw Megi and Phoggy walking towards him.
"Have you finished the interview?"
"Let's just say we had a hard time calming Spandam down when he noticed you were gone." Megi said. "Are we to understand that it is time to leave?"
"Indeed." Morgans stated, pointing to his den-den mushi. "I got what I wanted."
"Any information to put in the newspaper?"
"Unfortunately, I think the government is going to give me money to stop us from publishing this." Morgans retorted.
Letting out a sigh, the reporter groaned.
"Damn it! Why are we in a budget deficit? To think that because of this we are forced to listen to government orders in exchange for money."
"Our newspaper sales aren't as good as they used to be." Phoggy said.
"I know it." Morgans growled. "And it's the fault of the world government! by believing they are protected by heroes, people no longer have any interest in buying our newspapers! Why want to be interested in the news when the high authorities claim that is peace everywhere in this world? People buy newspapers when they are afraid."
Letting out a sigh, Morgans stated.
"I would like a grain of sand."
" A grain of sand?"
"The world government is like a giant machine that controls this world! However, if a grain of sand gets stuck in this machine, it could be advantageous for us."
"Why?" Megi asked. "A saber's grain can never stop or destroy a machine."
"Yes, but a grain of sand can damage it somewhat! And it only takes one grain of sand for certain problems to begin and..."
Suddenly, the trio was startled by a deafening noise.
" Huh ? "
Looking out the window, the journalist and his two assistants saw an explosion in the center of Enies Lobby before seeing a column of smoke rising into the sky.
"What...?" Megi wondered.
"Enies Lobby is under attack?" Phoggy asked.
Eyes wide, Morgans tried to figure out if he was dreaming or not. However, staring at the smoke for long seconds, he finally shouted.
"What are you doing standing still?"
" Huh ? "
Immediately starting to run out of the tower, Morgans stated.
"I think my grain of sand is here."
Having his arms covered in burns, Luffy groaned in pain. However, still standing, he faced a huge pile of scrap metal, which was none other than the remains of the cannon. Being also on the ground, the burais of Yoshida and his three companions had been damaged during the explosion.
Staying still, Ohgi didn't understand what had just happened.
"He destroyed that cannon...in one attack?"
" ROBIN ! "
Letting out another scream, Luffy started running towards the Tower of Justice again, while Loke remained on a roof. Staring at Luffy as he left, Loke still tried to understand why Luffy's scream had managed to knock out so many people.
Swallowing, he had no trouble remembering Luffy's first battle against the Skypiea pokemon. During this fight, when Sanji was in difficulty, Luffy shouted in the same way and managed to scare the pokemon who attacked them. And like now, Loke felt his body tremble.
"Luffy...who are you?"
For his part, Zero couldn't help but be unhappy with what had just happened. How did Luffy manage to defeat 1000 soldiers and a gigantic cannon in a matter of seconds? What power had he used to perform such a miracle?
"The game seems to be continuing." Light said.
Yet, as surprised as Zero, he didn't make any bad comments. Even he had to admit that he could never have foreseen such a scenario. On the contrary, the situation made Ryuk chuckle, who seemed genuinely amused by the situation.
Looking at the screen with interest, CC asked.
" What do we have to do ? "
To this surprise, she heard a chuckle coming from Zero's mask.
"I see...it seems I had the bad idea of underestimating a pirate with a bounty of 100 million berries."
Not wasting a moment in stupid lamenting, Zero began to think. then, grabbing his den-den mushi, he contacted Ohgi.
"Ohgi! Can you hear me?"
" Huh...yes! Zero...apologies for failing. "
"It doesn't matter! How many burais are still operational?"
" Huh... Mugiwara damaged six burais! But we still have five Knightmares with us! We can pursue him to try to stop him. "
"Certainly not." Zero retorted. "There is no question of stupidly damaging other Knightmares! We must face the facts, Mugiwara is not an opponent like the others! For him, we must plan for other opponents."
" In that case, what should we do? "
Simply looking at the screen where the Rocketman was visible, Zero stated.
"Tohdoh's subordinates are at the entrance to the island, and Tamaki's team is joining them! Do the same! I want you to stop Roronoa and the others from joining their captain."
" Huh ... okay. "
Then, ending the call, Zero contacted other people.
"Kallen, can you hear me?"
" I'm listening, Zero. "
"I have sent a large party of Black Knights to defend the entrance to the island against Mugiwara's crew and their allies! Go and help them! I think your presence there will be very useful to us."
" And Mugiwara? "
"Don't worry! I know what to do with him."
Immediately, he contacted a third person.
"Tohdoh, I could use a favor."
" I'm listening, Zero. "
"I want you to go to the Courtyard and stop Mugiwara."
"Do you think I would be able to master him? "
"Honestly, I don't think so! But you'll delay him enough to allow CP9 to arrive before he does any further damage."
" Okay! I'll take care of him. "
And finally, Zero contacted a fourth person.
"I wish I didn't, but it's better to contact them instead of risking complete ridicule."
Waiting a few seconds, he finally said.
"CP9 agent, this is Zero! I could use your help."
