Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

“Yes, that should be the case, but… did you find some historical text?” Marco asked curiously.

“No…” Neptune did not hide anything, but told the story of the Naga.

“I see. This matter can’t be delayed. Here’s what we’ll do… I’ll contact Reina for you and have him pick up Robin and then go to Fishman Island!” Marco replied after thinking for a moment.

At this point, Marco already understood why Neptune didn't have the intelligence agents contact the Moby Dick directly, but instead contacted him first.

Chapter 442 Piracy

"So... he needs Robin to help him decipher the text in that letter?" After listening to Marco's explanation, Reina pondered for a moment and asked, "How many words are in the letter? If not... I can help him decipher it!"

"You? You know ancient writing?" Marco asked in surprise.

"I know a little, not much! So if it's too long... I can't handle it!" Reina said with a smile. "After all, my wife and daughter are both historians, so it's not surprising that I know a little bit, right?"

“Well, I didn’t even ask if it was a lot of words! How about this, I’ll contact you again at this time tomorrow, and I’ll ask Neptune about it later!” Marco replied after thinking for a moment.

“Okay!” Reina nodded and said with a smile, “By the way, how are things going with you and Nojiko?”

“Great! Nojiko is a very nice person, and we got along very well!” Marco replied generously.

"That's good!" Reina had a lot of confidence in Marco's character, which was why he introduced Nojigo to him.

After exchanging a few more casual words, the two hung up the phone.

"Is that Marco?" Whitebeard asked as he saw Reyna return to the deck.

“Hmm!” Reina explained everything, then smiled and said, “So Neptune wants Robin to go and help him translate! But I told Marco that I can translate a little too, so I asked him to find out how many words are in the letter. If it’s not too long, I should be able to translate it by guessing.”

"You? Gurarara... Don't delay their business. This matter really needs to be resolved, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to Fishman Island. Why don't you go and make the trip?" Whitebeard said with a loud laugh.

“Since Big Brother has spoken, how can I not do as he says? But as for Shanks and Kaido, I’ll leave that to Big Brother! I was originally planning to take this opportunity to visit Robin anyway, so let’s take care of them at the same time!” Reina nodded with a smile and said, “But if Big Brother has any news about Zephyr… remember to let me know!”

Given the relationship between Whitebeard and Neptune, Whitebeard would definitely send Reyner to the scene once he heard about this, so he was already mentally prepared.

"Don't worry, that guy isn't someone just anyone can defeat!" Whitebeard nodded and said with a smile.

He knew what Reina was up to. During this time, he had been constantly poaching people from other places in order to protect Xuan Yue Island. The same was true for the Doctor. Xuan Yue Island was really becoming more and more like a war machine. Now it could not only go to the sky, but also go into the sea. Once it was really in operation, it would be terrifying.

Even so, Reina doesn't seem satisfied. Recently, he has set his sights on Zefa, planning to bring Zefa back to Xuan Yue Island to become the head coach.

However, Whitebeard wasn't very optimistic about this. The other party had been a Marine his whole life, and although he had turned against the Marines now, it didn't mean he would join a pirate crew!

And given the existence of the Whitebeard Pirates, it's even more impossible.

However, Whitebeard didn't know why Reiner was so confident, so he did as he was told: if he encountered Zephyr, he would notify him; but if he didn't, he wouldn't bother looking for him.

The ocean is so vast that even the Whitebeard Pirates might not be able to find someone who wants to hide.

"Summoning Jutsu: Hard Shell!" After everything was ready, Reina summoned Hard Shell.

He's probably going to find Robin this time, which means he'll have to go to the Revolutionary Army's headquarters, Baltigo, the White Earth Island, so it's better for him to go there himself.

"Dad, is it alright to let Reina just go like this? Those Revolutionary Army guys aren't easy to deal with..." Vista, standing next to Whitebeard, said with some concern as he watched Reina leave.

"Gurararara... He's just going to pick up Robin, there won't be any problems!" Whitebeard said with a smile.

“He’d better get a beating there…then we’ll just go and kill him, avenge him, and maybe even rob him a bit!” Lakyo said with a sly laugh.

"Gurararara...that's quite possible! But let's deal with Kaido first!" Whitebeard smiled slightly and said, "If we really need to, we can go over there on the way. Didn't that kid Reina say he came out here wanting to rob people? Let's rob them to our hearts' content! Gurararara..."

"Whoa~~~" Upon hearing Whitebeard's words, the surrounding crew cheered. As pirates, robbing was their job.

The next day, when Marco contacted the Moby Dick again and learned that Reina had already set off to find Robin, he told Neptune to just wait patiently.

Meanwhile, Reina followed the guidance of Robin's Vivre Paper, stopping at small islands to resupply whenever he came across one, leading a rather leisurely life.

Several days later, when Reina discovered another small island, he found that the Whitebeard Pirates' flag was hanging on it, but judging from the texture and style... it seemed to be a counterfeit.

Reina, who originally had enough supplies and did not want to go to the island, curiously approached the shore and landed on the small island.

“It seems there are no pirate crews stationed here… Who is impersonating us?” Reina remembered very clearly that they had no territory in this sea area, so the person flying the pirate flag must be impersonating them.

After arriving at the town on the island and taking a stroll around, Reina found that it was relatively peaceful, quite different from the chaos he had imagined.

Arriving at the town's only tavern, which wasn't very crowded, Reina casually chose a table and sat down, intending to hear if there was any news.

"Big brother...when are we going to set sail? Staying here all the time is so boring! We're the crew of the Whitebeard Pirates! How can we not go to sea?" Before long, a group of people not far from Reina received some information that interested him.

"Idiot... Dad said we were to stay on this island. How dare you run off?" A burly man sitting in the middle, drinking, replied with a laugh and a curse.

After listening for a while, Reina finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that this group of people were actually from this island, but they were lazy and didn't want to do proper work, so they came up with the idea of ​​collecting protection money.

Especially their leader, the burly man who was also a vice admiral, he thought of using the Whitebeard Pirates' reputation to intimidate the island's residents. So he made his own pirate flag and had someone stage a scene where Whitebeard attacked the island. As a result, he fought to the death and protected the island. In the end, he was noticed by Whitebeard and recruited into the pirate crew to be stationed on the island.

And sure enough, after that incident, the unsuspecting residents actually gave him protection money, allowing him to live a carefree life ever since.

Therefore, he was completely uninterested in his younger brother's request to go to sea.

In his view, the best life is to live a life of pleasure and debauchery on the island every day.

However, because this was his hometown, he didn't do anything excessive.

After understanding the truth, Reina did not intend to expose the other party, because hanging the Whitebeard Pirates' flag was not all benefits and no drawbacks!

If other pirates discover the island, it will inevitably be attacked, and those thugs who usually collect protection money will be in trouble.

However, just as Reina got up to leave, the tavern door suddenly opened, and a boy rushed in, bumping into Reina and causing him to fall.

"Hey! Don't you have eyes? How dare you block my way?" The boy got up from the ground and immediately yelled at Reina.

"..." Reina just stared at the other party in silence. He was just a mere teenager, and Reina didn't even bother to make a move against him.

"Boss... Boss! Look at him, he's trying to hit me!" Seemingly realizing that Reina was not someone to mess with, the boy looked around and then spotted the group of thugs. He immediately ran over crying.

"Hey... you over there... you hit someone, don't you know how to apologize?" A slightly drunk thug stood up immediately after hearing the boy's complaints and said to Reina.

Reina turned his head to look at the other party, considering whether he should just take matters into his own hands, deal with them, and destroy the pirate flag.

"Oh? Pretty tough, huh? I'm talking to you...you...you didn't hear me?!" When the thug saw that Reina ignored him, he staggered forward, intending to attack Reina. However, before he could reach Reina, he tripped and fell because he was drunk and kicked a table leg.

Seeing the thug lying on the ground, Reina, who was about to make a move, immediately lost his mood. Bullying an opponent of this level would be beneath his dignity.

"Trying to leave? You think you can just walk away after hitting my brother?" The gang leader immediately stood up and shouted as he watched Reina turn to leave.

"A staged accident?" Reina turned around and asked, "Anyone with eyes could see that he fell down on his own. I didn't touch him!"

"Who said that? I saw you push my brother just now, that's why he fell! What? You don't want to admit it?" The gang leader walked menacingly toward Reina, with his henchmen following behind him. As for the boy who bumped into Reina, he hid behind the gang leader and made provocative gestures toward Reina.

"So what do you want to do?" Reina asked, somewhat helplessly.

"What are we going to do? Of course, we'll pay! You're not going to pay for my brother's medical expenses?" The leader of the thugs said with a fierce look, "I'm a member of the Whitebeard Pirates! This is Whitebeard's territory. If you dare to mess around, I'll call my men right now! I have a pretty good relationship with Captain Marco!"

“Oh? Marco?” Reina chuckled and said, “Then let him out. I want to see how much money he can charge me!”

"Huh? Who are you? Do you know our Captain Marco?" Upon hearing Reina's words, the gang leader immediately sensed that the other person's background might be unusual.

Based on his principle of self-preservation, he never takes action without first figuring out the other party's background, lest he run into a brick wall.

Moreover, judging from what Reina said, he knew that the other party was probably not a simple person.

"Marco of the Whitebeard Pirates... I've heard of him! Are you a member of the Whitebeard Pirates?" Reina looked at the other person and asked with a smile.

"This..." The gang leader was sweating profusely. Just now, he saw the Whitebeard Pirates tattoo on Reina's arm and knew that he had met the real boss, so he didn't dare to say a word.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Our boss was personally appointed by Whitebeard to guard this island! Kid, if you want to cause trouble, you'd better think twice... The Whitebeard Pirates are not to be trifled with!" Before the gang leader could speak, his underling couldn't help but say.

Chapter 443 Baldigo, the Island of White Earth

"So, can I leave now?" Reina asked with a light laugh, looking at the thug lying on the ground.

He didn't hit the man; the gang leader himself did it, slapping him to the ground with a single blow. Then, ignoring his underlings' confusion, he bowed and scraped to Reina, saying, "Yes...yes...of course! Please!"

"Kid... the Whitebeard Pirates' flag... isn't so easy to hang. They also have hostile forces. If you run into just one of them, it's enough to wipe out your whole crew!" Reina patted the leader of the thugs and left with a smile.

After he left, the group of henchmen turned to their boss and asked, "Boss... who was that guy just now?!"

"Don't ask! That's not something you should know!" The gang leader feigned a melancholy expression and said, "All you need to know is that the guy just now could have wiped out everyone on this entire island!"

"Wh...what?" The underlings looked at their leader in shock.

He didn't actually recognize Reina, but he knew that since the other party was a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, he must have that kind of strength.

This incident had a significant impact on them, but for Reina, it was a trivial matter.

After leaving the small island and sailing for some time, Reina finally arrived at Baltigue, the island of white earth.

However, to his surprise, no one came out when he reached the shore.

This is far too lax in defense for the headquarters of a major power.

You should know that he didn't hide anything; he just openly and honestly landed on the shore!

However, it was just as well that the other party hadn't noticed him. After dispelling the summoning spell that had sealed his shell, Reina swaggered into Baldigo.

"Have you heard? That Nico Robin we brought back recently is amazing! She's translated all the historical texts we found here!"

"Really? So many historical texts have been translated?"

"Yeah, I heard they haven't slept for three days and three nights! That's amazing!"

As he walked along the road, listening to the Revolutionary Army around him talking about Robin, Reina was first stunned, and then his face darkened.

Her daughter... she didn't come here to work! Why wasn't she allowed to rest for three days and three nights?

With a dark expression, Reina continued to follow the Life Paper. He had decided that if he found out that Robin was not doing well here, he would definitely make a scene!

Soon, Reina arrived at the entrance of a tall building.

The rocks on this small island are all white, so it is called the Island of White Soil. The revolutionary army took advantage of this and used white materials to build all the buildings. From a distance, it looks like there are no buildings on the island and it is an uninhabited island.

"You can't go in here!"

When Reina was about to go in, he was stopped by the guards standing at the door.

"Get out of here!" Reina, who was already in a bad mood, didn't bother to say anything more to these people and replied in a low voice.

"Hmm?" The two guards looked Reina over carefully, their expressions changed, and they asked, "Who are you? You're not one of ours!"

"Hmph, get lost!" Reina glared, and two guards fell to the ground. He had used Conqueror's Haki.

At the same time, several different locations on the island, after sensing the Conqueror's Haki, all turned to look at Reina.
