One Piece: The Half-Blood Ninja Who Hides on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 534 With Xi Yan's strength, dealing with a Marine Admiral shouldn't be a problem.

"Hey, look what's that?!"

Usopp pointed to the huge plant shadow in the distance and said, "It looks just like a giant rose!"

"Hala~"

"That's pretty good~" Nico Robin laughed.

Usopp: ? ? ?

What does "pretty good" mean?

Is now the time for reflection?

"Hey, Law." Usopp glanced at Law and said, "Is this Greenbit?"

"It looks like a huge primeval forest."

As he spoke, Usopp recalled his experiences on the Boin Islands, where the plants were also enormous.

"This is indeed Greenbit," Luo said.

The address was definitely correct, but this was the first time he had ever seen this place.

"Hey, Joker!" Caesar suddenly shouted, "It's me! Come save me!"

"Shut up."

Law raised the Demon Cry in his hand and pointed it directly at Caesar, saying, "The appointed time and place have not yet arrived, and Doflamingo will not come."

After saying that, Law paused for a moment, then turned to look southeast and continued, "At three o'clock, Doflamingo will naturally go there to rescue you."

Caesar pursed his lips upon hearing this. What he said was true, but... who wouldn't want to be saved sooner?

Just then, Usopp pointed to the forest in the distance and said, "Hey, look over there!"

"That's a naval warship, isn't it!"

"It looks like it was washed ashore on the island... What kind of force could throw such a large warship into the forest?"

Could it be that a fighting fish crashed into it?

If you think about it carefully, it's not impossible.

"Let me see."

Nicole Robin picked up her binoculars and glanced at the ship. Then, with a grave expression, she said, "Judging from the damage to the plants, this warship must have arrived at this island not long ago."

"They just arrived?" Usopp exclaimed in surprise. "So, those fighting fish attacked the warship before coming after us?"

"Maybe," Nicole Robin said. "But the damage to the warship isn't that severe, so I'm not sure if they were attacked by fighting fish."

Normally, a warship wouldn't only suffer so little damage if attacked by a group of fighting fish.

After thinking for a moment, Nico Robin turned to look at Law, whose expression was serious, and said, "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about what the 'Sunglasses Boss' said before."

"You suspect that the Marine Admiral is here?" Usopp swallowed nervously, then exclaimed excitedly, "Then what's the point of making a deal? Let's get out of here!"

"That's right!"

Caesar exclaimed excitedly, "The navy's presence here means the deal might be exposed. What are we waiting for if we don't leave now?"

"You idiot scientist, keep your voice down!" Usopp grabbed Caesar and said, "And why are you so agitated?"

"Of course it's because I'm a wanted criminal too!" Caesar exclaimed excitedly. "Now that Joker is no longer a Shichibukai, it means the law no longer protects me!"

In that case, the navy here will definitely take action against him!

If he is captured by the navy, he will be thrown into that terrible underwater prison.

The thought of this made Caesar even more excited.

"I....

"7

"I told you to keep your voice down, you stupid scientist!" Usopp yelled, grabbing Caesar.

Unfortunately, these words did nothing to calm Caesar down.

Nicole Robin remained silent, simply watching Law to see what he planned to do.

Luo pondered for a moment, then said, "The transaction continues."

"ha?"

"Are you even listening to us?!" Caesar exclaimed excitedly.

There is a navy here now, and there is even a possibility that there is a naval admiral!

In this situation, should we continue trading?

Is Luo out of his mind?

Usopp looked at Law with some confusion. Was it still necessary to continue the trade at a time like this?

"The presence of warships here doesn't mean the admiral is here," Luo said calmly. "Don't forget what the 'Sunglasses Boss' said before."

"The admiral has most likely gone to find Ace's family."

Caesar: ? ? ?

What the heck?

Why didn't he know about this?

No, what exactly happened while he was unconscious?

"If the Admiral isn't here, how did this warship manage to get here amidst the siege of the Fighting Fish?" Usopp frowned.

He still felt that the general was more likely to be here.

"The Vice Admiral could handle those fighting fish," Luo explained. "So it's not surprising that this warship was able to appear here smoothly."

"And an enemy like a lieutenant general is not a threat to us."

To him, a lieutenant general was really no different from a nobody.

At least it was quite easy for him to kill Vergo.

Therefore, Luo did not consider the lieutenant general to be his opponent.

"What if..." Usopp said, "What if a Marine Admiral is here?"

"Doflamingo's cooperation with the Navy is based on the premise of dealing with Portgas D. Ace, but that target doesn't include me," Law said. "So I don't think a Navy Admiral will come here to ambush me."

On this point, he and the man in sunglasses share the same idea.

"What makes you think that?" Usopp said. "Aren't you afraid you'll be on the list too?"

"Have you forgotten that I'm still a Shichibukai?" Law said. "As long as I'm still a Shichibukai, the Navy won't easily take action against me."

Although Doflamingo has some kind of deal with the Navy and may ask them to help him against him, the Navy may not necessarily be led by the nose by Doflamingo.

After all, how could someone who hasn't even become a Shichibukai have the right to order the Navy to deal with another Shichibukai?

You should know that there are naval admirals here!

And most importantly... he can't let this opportunity slip away!

Luo knew very well that this was his last chance for revenge in his life, so he absolutely could not give it up!

Usopp pursed his lips upon hearing this. What he said was true, but he still felt somewhat uneasy.

Nicole Robin then said, "Robin, have you forgotten this morning's newspaper?"

"Of course I know about this," Law said. "But the Navy will at most ask me about the situation; they won't directly order me to give up my Shichibukai title."

"At least it won't be that fast."

After speaking, Law paused for a moment, then continued, "Besides... I don't think I'm as important as Ace in the eyes of the Navy."

He was just an ordinary Shichibukai, far less important than the descendant of the Pirate King.

At least that's how it appears to world governments.

Therefore, it is more likely that a Marine Admiral ambushed Fire Fist Ace.

Nicole Robin thought about it for a moment and felt that what Luo said made a lot of sense.

After all, he's the son of the Pirate King!

In this situation, the World Government would most likely order an admiral to capture Fire Fist Ace.

However, she always had a feeling of unease in her heart, and she didn't know why.

After thinking for a moment, Nico Robin said, "You have a point, but... is it possible that there will be two Marine Admirals?"

"Won't."

Law said with great certainty, "Although Ace is very important to the World Government, it's not like they would send two admirals to capture him."

He does have some ability to become the descendant of this Pirate King, but it's not enough to warrant the Navy sending two admirals to deal with him.

After all, a general is someone who can fight against someone of the Four Emperors' caliber without being defeated!

A Fire Fist Ace?

It's really not worth sending out two top generals.

Nico Robin thought about it for a moment and realized that what Luo said made sense.

For a monster of the general level, sending just one is enough.

Thinking about this, Nicole Robin relaxed a little.

"However, for safety's sake, we still need to be prepared for the possibility of powerful individuals lurking here." After a moment's thought, Law said, "Next, I will proceed to the southeast coast to await Doflamingo as planned, while you will go into the forest to gather intelligence."

"The forest..."

""

After glancing back at the forest, Usopp's expression showed some resistance.

Although the chances of a naval admiral being here are slim, he still doesn't want to face the navy.

Seeing Usopp's expression, Law could only continue, "We need to confirm who is lurking in the forest."

"What if it's a Marine Admiral?" Nico Robin asked.

"Escape!" Law said. "If we find a Marine Admiral, your only option is to survive!"

Nico Robin paused for a moment after hearing this, then nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

"If we spot anything tough, we'll signal you."

If she encounters an insurmountable enemy, she will use her Devil Fruit powers to notify Law to leave.

"Okay, then I'll leave it to you."

Luo nodded, and then led Caesar toward the southeast coast.

After watching the other person leave, Nico Robin turned to Usopp and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to make our move."

"Are you really going?"

Usopp looked at the forest in front of him with some resistance. He felt that this place was like the huge mouth of a monster, and he might die if he went in!

Thinking of this, Usopp subconsciously took a step back.

"Things have come to this point, we can't leave," Nicole Robin said. "Besides..."

Even if we encounter a naval admiral, we have ways to deal with him.

"What methods?" Usopp asked curiously.

How come he didn't know there were ways to deal with a general?

"Just use a Den Den Mushi to call someone over," Nico Robin said with a chuckle. "I'll just call west Yan over then, won't I?"

With Xi Yan's strength, protecting them and getting them out of here shouldn't be a problem.

As for whether it will be exposed?

According to west Yan, they would not be exposed unless they encountered a navy officer they had already met.

"But this place is quite far from Dressrosa..." Usopp said with a bitter face.

"At his speed, it won't take him long to get here."

After Nico Robin finished speaking, she turned and walked towards the forest, clearly not intending to give Usopp any more chances to talk nonsense.

Seeing this, Usopp sighed and said, "Oh well, fine."

What could he say after Robin had already said that?

Just go in and gather intelligence honestly.

After shaking his head, Usopp quickly chased after Nico Robin.

"Hey, wait a minute!" Usopp said, "It's dangerous here. Don't stray too far from me, or I won't be able to protect you."

That's true, but the way Usopp was cautiously looking around clearly showed that he was scared.

"Hehe, that's really reassuring, Usopp~" Nico Robin teased.

Usopp coughed lightly upon hearing this. Was he being teased?

"Alright, hurry up and catch up."

"Here it comes, here it comes."

After quickly catching up with Nico Robin, Usopp looked around and said, "This forest is so big, where are we going to find the Marines?"

There are less than twenty minutes left until 3 o'clock. Is that really enough time to find someone?

He expressed his doubts.

"Let's take our time looking," Nico Robin said without turning her head. "It's better than doing nothing."

Since the Straw Hat Pirates have decided to help Law complete this plan, they should do their best.

Usopp simply nodded and said nothing more.

Soon, the two entered the depths of the forest through the gap and began searching for traces of the navy in the surrounding area.

Just then, a man's roar came from afar.

"Who is it?!" the Marine shouted. "Is it the Straw Hat Pirates?!"

"Has it been exposed?!" Usopp exclaimed in surprise.

Did the navy discover their whereabouts first?

"Shh~"

"They don't look like they've discovered us," Nico Robin said, staring at the few marines in the distance. "They look more like... they're facing some kind of enemy."

"enemy?"

Usopp was taken aback. Weren't only the two of the Straw Hat Pirates here?

Then, as if struck by a sudden realization, Usopp exclaimed with delight, "Could it be that Xiyan has arrived?"

Upon hearing this, Nicole Robin shook her head and said, "west Yan won't come here on his own initiative; Dressrosa is his home turf."

The mission over there isn't finished yet, so why would west Yan come here on his own initiative?

Usopp:

Usopp's face fell upon hearing this. Could you please not hit him just when he's starting to have any hope?

Robin, this is really not good of you...

"Damn Straw Hat crew, come out right now!" the Marine said nervously. "Surrender obediently, and we might let you live."

"That's right, get out here right now, or we'll kill them!"

The sailors nervously looked around, their hands unconsciously tightening their grip on their flintlock muskets.

Once they discover the Straw Hat crew's whereabouts, then take them out!

"I'm not one of the Straw Hat crew," Leo said. "I'm Leo!"

As they spoke, Leo and his friends quietly approached the marines on the ground, clearly ready to make their move.

And these naval forces never discovered any trace of these little people!
