Marine Headquarters.
Doberman's office.
Boom!
Doberman slammed his palm on the office table, causing cracks to appear on the hard wooden table. He stood up immediately, his face full of anger.
"Who does he think he is?"
"Arrogant! It's really arrogant! "
Although there are countless pirates in the sea, as a Marine Headquarters Vice-Admiral, he has also dealt with many ferocious pirates, but there are only a few who dare to speak arrogantly to Marine Headquarters and most of them come from New World.
"How dare a little brat from the West Ocean speak so arrogantly? He's really out of control!"
"Vice-Admiral Doberman, the strength of this Ghost Hand Ross is no longer something that the officers of the West Blue branches can deal with. How should we deal with him?"
Strawberry stood in front of Doberman's desk and asked with a cold expression on his face.
If he had some sympathy for Ross at the beginning, then after Ross killed Moby and spoke arrogantly to Marine's top brass, his sympathy turned into anger.
Doberman took two heavy breaths and pressed down the anger in his heart. He said coldly, "Inform all the branch bases of West Blue to include Ghost Hand Ross in the list of dangerous pirates and hand him over to the branch bases to deal with him!"
"Yes."
Strawberry nodded solemnly.
The base leaders of the West Blue branch bases are not the same as the branch Captains. They have the rank of Rear Admiral of the branch, and a large part of the branch Rear Admiral is sent to the four seas by the Headquarters officers. Their strength is enough to suppress the sea where they are located.
… …
In front of the behemoths of Marine and World Government, all arguments are futile. Compared to Ross, people are obviously more likely to believe in World Government and Marine and believe in the news reports issued by the government.
Marine represents the World Government, which is enough to easily distort the facts and invert black and white in the world.
Argue?
Protest?
It's useless.
So from the moment Marine Captain Moby attacked, Ross has made a decision. Since Marine's top brass is determined to discredit him as a pirate, he can't bear the name of a pirate in vain and let those Marines down!
In order to defeat Marine Captain Moby quickly, Ross pointed out the Kami-e (Paper Drawing) in Marine's Rokushiki. Although it cost a little Free Talent Point, the effect was also very significant. He quickly killed Moby and did not fall into the situation of being surrounded by Marines.
After rushing out of the Marine branch, Ross came to the south bank of the island, where his boat was docked.
"I don't know how the Marine will announce my crimes this time."
Ross rowed away from the coast and looked at the boundless sea and shook his head.
It didn't matter.
From today on, he is the Captain of the Ghost Hand Pirates.
"After today, the Marines will probably increase the bounty on me and hunt me down in the West Blue. They may even send a Rear Admiral and a fleet. If I run around without any information, it will be easy for me to be ambushed and surrounded."
Ross pondered a little.
Now that he has become a pirate, he will face the pursuit of the Marines. It is obviously not enough to rely on a small boat. He needs a ship of at least medium size and he also needs various information.
For him, there are two ways to become stronger, one is to practice by himself, the other is to hunt pirates, and to hunt pirates, he also needs information.
In this way.
The first crew member he needed was now very clear. Hiding in the dark underground world and knowing a lot of information … Nico Robin.
"Next, let's go to Ghale City."
…
Ghale City.
Underground intelligence organization base.
Nico Robin is standing at a desk, sorting out and memorizing the information on the desk one by one. She passed the Ph.D. exam in archaeology at the age of eight, and her memory and analytical ability are almost unquestionable.
In the months she has worked for this intelligence organization, no matter how complicated the information is, she can quickly remember it, and as long as she is asked, she can answer it immediately.
"It's all recorded."
Robin put down the last piece of paper and closed her eyes slightly. After a few seconds, she opened them again and nodded at Terun, who was sitting behind the desk.
Terun took a sip of coffee from his cup and nodded with satisfaction. "Very well, go and burn all these intelligence documents."
Taking in Demon Child Nico Robin, who has a bounty of 79 million Berries, is also a big risk for him, but Robin's ability to handle intelligence makes him extremely satisfied.
Otherwise, he would have thrown Robin to Marines to collect the bounty.
Robin grabbed the note on the table and walked aside, quickly disposed of the intelligence documents, and then returned to the desk.
"If I remember correctly, you should be 16 years old now."
Terun looked at Robin with a cup of tea.
"Yes."
Robin nodded.
Terun leisurely leaned against the back of the chair, the corner of his mouth slightly raised, and said: "It's a good age. If it wasn't for the bounty of 79 million Berries, you would really be a perfect assistant."
Robin was silent.
Terun looked at Robin's appearance, slowly put down the cup, and said: "In addition to sorting out intelligence, what else can you do, can you dance?"
"I can't."
Robin shook her head.
"That's really boring …" Terun stood up, looked at Robin, slowly walked over, stretched out two rough fingers, and wanted to hook Robin's chin.
Robin's face slightly changed, and she took half a step back.
Seeing that Robin moved away, and his fingers didn't touch Robin's chin, Terun's movements slightly paused, and the interest on his face faded. He retracted his fingers in the air, put his hands behind his back, and showed a trace of contempt in his eyes, and said:
"Take off your clothes, Nico Robin."
"What?"
Robin froze for a moment.
Terun saw Robin in a daze, slightly increased his tone, and said: "I told you to take off your clothes, didn't you hear me?"
"This request …"
Robin's pupils shrank, and she took another step back, not knowing how to deal with it for a while.
She has been hiding in the underground world for eight years, and she has seen too much darkness over the years, but today is the first time she has encountered such a situation.
"What? Are you going to disobey my orders? "
Terun saw Robin step back, and his face sank, and said: "You can do anything, isn't that what you said yourself? I took the risk of a high bounty of 79 million Berries to take you in! "
"…"
As soon as she heard Terun mention the reward of 79 million Berries, Robin's expression changed, and her teeth bit her lips.
It is because of such a high bounty that she has been hiding for eight years, and in order to survive, she has done everything she could. If it weren't for her calmness and wisdom far beyond ordinary people, it would be impossible for her to survive until now.
In order to survive, she can do everything she can.
But the humiliation in front of her is unbearable.
Survival or dignity, which is more important?
She bit harder and harder, and her teeth were deeply embedded in her lips. She didn't know when she bit her lips, and bright red blood slowly dripped down.
Terun looked at Robin's appearance, but he showed a calm expression, for him, he was just bored and looking for some fun.
"Looking at you, it seems that you haven't experienced it yet? That's really bad, you have such a high bounty, you may be caught by Marine at any time, and once you are caught, you won't have the chance to experience it. "
"…"
Robin was silent, survival is so difficult for her, is it so difficult that she needs to give up the last bit of dignity?
Just when Robin's heart was filled with sadness.
Boom!
The oak door suddenly slammed and was forcibly pushed open from the outside, and the door lock was directly broken, accompanied by sawdust splashing everywhere.
"Who?!"
Terun, who was observing Robin's reaction, was suddenly interrupted by the sound, and could not help but show anger, and turned to look at the door.
Ross came in from the door, he arrived half a minute ago, because the door was locked, he waited a little, he did not expect to encounter an accident.
"It's you?"
When Terun saw Ross, he suddenly frowned.
"I broke your door, I don't think you would mind."
Ross, under the surprised gaze of Robin and Terun, walked to the field, looked at Robin and said:
"It seems that you are not very happy here, do you want to change your identity and be my crew member?"
Ross never likes to beat around the bush, and Robin is a smart person, in the current situation, he only needs to give a choice.
Hearing Ross's words, before Robin could react, Terun opened his mouth with a gloomy face.
"Ghost Hand Ross, what do you mean by this, are you going to poach my assistant in front of me?"
"Yes."
Ross responded calmly, and his' yes' made Terun choke in his throat.
"So, what do you think? Nico Robin. "Ross looked at Robin.
Robin was slightly startled.
This is the first time that someone has taken the initiative to pull her in.
Even though Robin is still very young, her calm and steady mentality is still far beyond her peers and ordinary people. It took her less than a second to analyze the current situation, and then she nodded calmly.
