Chapter 275 The mantis stalks the cicada! The oriole is behind!
In a certain area of the West Sea, Nico Robin wrapped in a black cloak, drove a small sea boat, and slowly moved forward on the sea.
Recalling her experiences during this period, her heart was filled with reluctance.
She originally wanted to go to the New World and join the Beasts Pirates.
After all, in this world where the World Government strictly prohibits research on the blank 100 years, only the Beasts Pirates and Ian of Burning Sky will not accept the government’s coercion.
If she can get the help of that man, then it may not be impossible to reveal the true truth of history.
Although she was inevitably hesitant about the Beasts Pirates, the most terrifying pirate group in the world, Robin still started her journey without hesitation.
Even if she died, she would be willing to die for revealing the truth of history.
Robin finally got into a merchant ship and was almost going to follow the ship into the Grand Line.
But she didn’t expect that because of the turmoil in the West Sea at this time, the World Government had greatly strengthened the inspection of ships heading to the Grand Line.
She was discovered just like that.
If it weren’t for the vigilance she had developed during her long-term escape career that made her react and choose to escape at the first time, she would probably have been escorted to Impel Down now.
But even so, she was chased and intercepted by the navy at this time.
Unlike all the times she was chased by the navy in the past, this time the navy could even be described as crazy.
The navy of many nearby bases were summoned to form a large fleet of dozens of ships, which gathered like a fishing net along the way.
All islands along the way will be subject to carpet searches, and all ships are temporarily prohibited from sailing in the entire sea area.
Robin is desperately trying to escape.
But no matter how hard she tries, the navy’s net is getting tighter and tighter.
After escaping the navy’s encirclement again, Robin didn’t know where to go for a while.
No matter which island she goes to, she will definitely be blocked by the navy.
But if she chooses not to dock, the supplies carried on such a small ship will not last long.
Even before the supplies are consumed, the navy chasing behind will arrest her without hesitation.
The girl couldn’t help but feel a touch of despair in her heart at this time.
The world is so big, she seems to have nowhere to escape.
Just when the girl was in despair, on a warship in the sea not far behind.
“Admiral Kizaru!”
A naval officer from a nearby naval base stood up straight like a javelin, “It has been confirmed that Nico Robin is fleeing to the north!”
”We have notified the nearby naval base to send troops to support!”
”They will block the direction of the woman’s escape. In this way, the entire sea area will be surrounded by us, and the woman has nowhere to escape!”
Kizaru, who was sitting leisurely on a chair flipping through a book, slowly raised his head, “That would be great.”
Hearing what the admiral said, the naval officer couldn’t help but smile with joy.
This gentleman is the admiral of the Navy Headquarters, a big shot that he could never reach anyway! Being able to get his approval, the future is limitless, the future is limitless!
Ignoring the officer who couldn’t hold back his smile, Kizaru’s brows slightly knitted.
It’s even more troublesome than I imagined.
At first, there were only dozens of warships, but later, more and more naval bases received the order, and now there are more than a hundred warships surrounding Nico Robin.
With such a huge movement, it is absolutely impossible to say that the Cross Guild and Teacher Zefa did not get the news.
I just hope they don’t act so fast.
Otherwise, the situation may become very complicated.
Kizaru thought so.
The navy warships continued to move forward, and the surrounding warships began to close in here.
Faced with the navy going all out, no matter how good Nico Robin was at escaping, she finally had no choice at this time.
When she first discovered that there were severalWhen she saw a naval warship approaching, the girl did not hesitate to turn the boat to the right and try to escape.
The boat was moving very fast.
The girl used the power of the Flower-Flower Fruit to create many arms on the side of the boat, and rowed the boat with more than a dozen oars at the same time.
It must be said that this method is at least very efficient, and the boat is like an arrow from a string.
However, when the birdcage has been formed, no matter how fast the bird flies, it cannot escape from it.
Soon Robin saw the warship appearing again on the sea ahead.
At this time, her face was as pale as paper.
She probably knew that this time she was doomed.
But the girl was still not ready to give up.
The dream of her mother and the dreams of all the scholars in O’Hara were on her shoulders.
She couldn’t give up like this! So the girl turned the bow again and fled quickly in another direction.
This time, it took her less time to see the oncoming navy warship.
But fortunately, she didn’t have to run away this time.
Just as the girl was about to change direction again, a brilliant light fell from the sky and condensed into a man in a yellow striped suit on the bow of the boat.
”Oh! I finally found you.”
The man greeted Robin with a smile, “Nicole Robin, the government and the navy have been looking for you for many years.”
The girl looked at the man in front of her, and her eyes were instantly dull.
”Admiral… Kizaru?”
How could it be an admiral? How could it be that a navy admiral went out in person? The guy in front of her was just like Aokiji in O’Hara back then, both were absolute monsters…
The girl felt her body go weak at this moment, and she couldn’t help but sit on the boat.
The originally beautiful face was as pale as a page at this time.
There was no escape.
If it was this guy, how could there be a chance of escape? Mom, Doctor, everyone, I seem to be powerless.
Tears flowed from the girl’s eyes.
Kizaru looked at the girl crying silently and looking desperate, and couldn’t help but sigh.
It was hard for him to judge whether O’Hara was right or wrong.
But, as a soldier, he only needed to obey orders. That was enough
”Let’s go, girl, come back with me.”
So, Nico Robin was arrested on the spot.
And a few minutes after she was arrested.
Wano Country.
Ian had already received the news.
He couldn’t help but sigh, the navy’s action was still quite fast, and Nico Robin had been caught so quickly.
But it doesn’t matter, being fat first is not considered fat, but being fat later will crush the kang.
Ian immediately called Teacher Kai.
He was still thinking that if the navy sent too many people and they were too strong, he would ask Uncle Jin to provide emergency support.
However, since the navy only sent Admiral Kizaru, then Teacher Kai alone was enough.
However, while Teacher Kai was preparing to take action, another group of people were waiting.
On an island in the sea near the mouth of the canal leading to the Grand Line in the West Sea.
The status of this island in the West Sea is roughly equivalent to that of Rogue Town in the East Sea.
It’s just that it doesn’t have the blessing of the identity of the island where Rogue Town begins and ends, so compared to Rogue Town, it is of course unknown. But fame is naturally not important. The geographical importance of the two islands is the same. They are both important passes for an entire sea area to the Grand Line.
Like Rogue Town, this island also has a large-scale naval base.
The colonel stationed here is also a colonel of the Navy Headquarters, who is far from being comparable to the colonels of the four sea branches.
At this time, in a civilian house outside the naval base.
Crocodile sat on a chair, leaning against the back of the chair, with his feet on the table in front of him.
He sneered and said, “The New World has been completely occupied by Ian. Even if the Navy catches Nico Robin, it will never be possible to cross the Calm Belt and return to the Grand Line.”
”They can only go back through here, so we just need to block them here.”
He originally wanted to compete with the Navy to see who can find Nico Robin first.
But the Navy did make too much noise, and Crocodile really didn’t have the confidence to find Nico Robin before the Navy, so he simplyJust come here to wait for the rabbit.
He has arranged people to guard the entrance of the canal. The navy’s warships will pass through there, and they will get the news at the first time.
”If we get that woman, I’m afraid we will become the target of public criticism.”
Redfield, who came here with Crocodile, was drinking coffee slowly at this time.
Compared with the bold sitting posture of the sand crocodile, the red earl is much more elegant, with his waist and back straight.
”It doesn’t matter,”
Crocodile sneered, “Kill all the witnesses, then no one will know?”
”There is a very powerful guy from the navy, Admiral Kizaru, huh,”
Crocodile looked at Redfield seriously, “Red, it depends on you.”
”Humph.”
Red Earl just chuckled and did not refuse.
He has changed after all.
Moreover, his dream was to become the Pirate King.
He also felt that he could not miss that woman.
While the two men from the Cross Guild were waiting here, the rabbit they were expecting was indeed approaching.
The navy fleet led by Kizaru himself was approaching the island.
Nicole Robin was imprisoned in a prison at the bottom of the warship. The seastone shackles bound her tightly, and several chains locked her completely in the cabin.
The girl just sat on the ground with her head down, her eyes dull.
She had completely lost hope.
On the deck, Kizaru stood at the bow and looked at a sea chart.
After gesturing on the sea chart with his fingers, he said with relief, ”It’s quieter than I thought. It’s very close to the canal. I hope there won’t be any trouble next time.”
Once we return to the Grand Line, it will be much safer.
The West Sea, where the Cross Guild and the NEO Navy are entrenched, is now much more dangerous than the first half of the Grand Line.
What Kizaru didn’t know was that someone was waiting for him on the island ahead.
What he didn’t know even more was that someone was chasing him from behind.
There was a strong wind blowing in the sky behind.
Drager turned into the wind and accelerated at full speed.
When he arrived, the fleet of the Navy that was besieging Nico Robin had been disbanded.
So Drager immediately realized that the girl he thought was the light of revolution should have been captured by the Navy now.
So what will the Navy do next? You don’t even need to think about it. Of course, the Navy will take Nico Robin back to the Grand Line.
So Drager immediately made the same guess as Crocodile.
Now that the New World has been occupied by the Beast Pirates, the Navy can only return to the first half of the Grand Line through the canal on the Upside Down Mountain.
So, Dragon chased after them.
No matter what, the girl must be brought back!
She is the only person in the world who can possibly reveal the hidden truth of history! Thinking of this, Dragon began to accelerate in one go.
…
The Navy’s warships finally slowly approached the island located at the mouth of the Upside Down Mountain Canal.
Next, they will enter the Grand Line through the canal and then go straight to Judicial Island.
The journey along the way is not short, and they have to replenish supplies first.
Fortunately, the navy of this base had already made preparations. When the warships entered the naval port, the marines had already begun to carry supplies onto the ship.
Yellow Monkey stood on the bow, watching the busy marines. For some reason, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
At this time, outside the naval base, on the roof of a civilian house.
”How is it?”
Crocodile asked lightly, holding a cigar.
”A very strong breath.”
Redfield said calmly, “It should be the admiral of the navy.”
”Then,”
Crocodile raised the corner of his mouth, “which means we can start the action, right?”
”Let’s knock out all the small fish first.”
Redfield nodded slightly.
If you want to hide your whereabouts, you really have to kill people to silence them.
But at this moment, he suddenly looked up.
”What?”
Crocodile looked at him in surprise.
From Redfield’s performance, he knew that something unexpected had happened again.
”Here comes a more powerful guy!” Reid said.
”Ah?”
Crocodile was at a loss for a moment.
In the sky, a strong wind suddenly whistled down.
”Huh?”
On the warship, Kizaru looked up in disbelief, “No way? ? Appeared here at this time? !”
The strong wind swept across the entire naval base in an instant, and a large number of naval soldiers were even blown away directly.
The naval warship was also trembling under the strong wind.
The next moment, a figure had condensed and formed on the mast.
The green cloak fluttered in the strong wind, and Drago looked down at the man below, “Borusalino, it’s been a long time since we last met, right?”
Looking at his old friend who he hadn’t seen for a long time, Kizaru couldn’t help but sigh, “If possible, I don’t want to meet again at this moment. ”
”But, Dragon, as a member of the Revolutionary Army, why are you here now?”
Kizaru pretended to be stupid.
”Of course there is no other reason,”
Dragon just said calmly, “Old friend, leave the girl to me.”
