"We will definitely investigate and find out the truth, but until then, you'll have to put up with this for a few more days."

"Send Dr. York back to the lounge; let's not show ourselves for now!"

York pointed at Robert: "My boyfriend has to come with me too!"

Robert had been hiding to the side like a transparent man, but now, with York pointing at him, countless eyes were instantly drawn to him.

Tsuru and Kizaru already suspected him of being a CP spy, and now that this has happened, it seems like a CP tactic no matter how you look at it.

The other navy personnel were all curious to see just how handsome the rumored male lead was. Although York was large, she had a very sweet appearance, a standard BBW.

As for Peacock, she's the granddaughter of Staff Officer Crane, and she's stunningly beautiful, making her the object of many navy men's fantasies.

Robert said very consciously, "York, you go back to your room and rest. With something this serious happening, I definitely have to participate in the investigation. I don't trust anyone else to investigate."

York pouted, "Then I want to eat Zhajiangmian (noodles with soybean paste) tonight!"

Robert laughed and said, "No problem, you take a nap first, and I'll be back when you wake up."

-----------------

The atmosphere at the second meeting at the top of the naval hierarchy was many times more somber than before.

Apart from the newly promoted Admiral Fujitora, who was rather casual because he hadn't yet adapted to his new role as a Marine Admiral, everyone else was keeping a close eye on Robert.

"Tell me, what exactly happened?"

Robert looked completely innocent: "How would I know? I barely exchanged a few words with Peacock before we parted on bad terms. I only rushed over when I heard fighting breaking out on the ship. I didn't even arrive as early as Admiral Borsalino..."

Aokiji's face turned ashen: "After you left the conference room, you first went into a storage room on the seventh floor and stayed there for more than six minutes before going to Vice Admiral Tsuru's office. The person you had a private conversation with in that room was the same navy officer who took Peacock to see York!"

Robert's heart skipped a beat; as soon as he heard this, he knew he had been tricked by Alpha.

If she's infiltrating the Navy Headquarters, how could she not know how to avoid surveillance? For example, the time she asked me to meet her in the restroom, wasn't that perfectly safe?

This time, however, they deliberately found a room for a clandestine rendezvous, making me feel like a matcha latte vendor at a lousy hotpot restaurant—

Even if it's not rotten, it's still rotten!

Chapters 11 (JUR-314, UZU-031, HSODA-004) all have good storylines.

Robert could only manage a wry smile: "Would you believe me if I said I knew absolutely nothing about this?"

Aokiji said coldly, "I will personally go to those in the know and demand an explanation, but you will stay in jail for the time being!"

Robert was truly speechless and had no choice but to be taken away.

The escorting navy did not put sea stone handcuffs on him because Robert behaved extremely cooperatively in front of many high-ranking officers.

But on his way to the prison, Robert started to have wicked thoughts. Since he was already in deep trouble, he might as well just leave the Navy.

There's nothing to regret about completely giving up the identity of Robert De Niro. Anyway, the Navy doesn't plan to pay out any rank to him, and he hasn't been promoted yet. He might as well just give it up, and the bounty route rank will be paid out soon.

Suddenly, Robert tensed up, sensing a peculiar fluctuation coming from ahead.

A portal the size of a head slowly opened, and an arm extended from it, striking the neck of the navy officer leading the way.

The other marines around reacted very quickly, but the teleportation portal was so elusive that it could easily take down these lowly soldiers who lacked Observation Haki with a single move.

Robert squinted and recognized Bruno, an old acquaintance, when he saw the portal. If they hadn't insisted on taking him away from the G2 branch, none of the subsequent events would have happened.

A squadron of naval personnel was swiftly brought down before they could even call for help.

A sliding door on the wall next to him opened, and Robert snorted, not wanting to go in, but a surprised exclamation came from the other side: "Darling, you're really here!"

Robert looked closely and saw that on the other side of the space behind the mountain gate, there was a huge teleportation portal that led to York's lounge. York was overjoyed to see Robert and stepped into the space.

Robert was furious. He could choose to leave the Navy, but he couldn't be led by the nose like this.

Just as he was about to step into the portal space to have a serious talk with Alpha, the door on the wall in front of him suddenly closed!

Robert only hesitated for a moment before realizing that this was a serious matter.

The navy personnel around him were defeated, and York, having seen him, cooperated and entered the doorway space.

Bruno is now shutting himself out, which is clearly a sign that he's going to discard him after he's served his purpose.

The CP department got the Vegapunk clone they wanted, and leaving themselves to take the blame was the perfect tactic.

Now the entire Navy suspects that they are part of the CP organization. I'm afraid that Aokiji will soon use this as a reason to attack the CP organization. At that time, they will find that they have no connection with the CP at all, and the organization will refuse to admit it.

At this moment, he didn't care about revealing his identity. In an instant, his Observation Haki, combined with electromagnetic induction, covered the entire space within a ten-kilometer radius.

The next second, Robert vanished in a flash and reappeared in an unused cell in the basement of the Navy Headquarters.

Several men dressed as sailors were lining up to enter a portal when Robert's appearance startled everyone.

Some of the quick-thinking individuals were about to shout warnings when they were surprised to find that their entire bodies were strangely controlled, and they couldn't even move a little finger.

Robert rushed into the portal, lightly tapping each marine's throat as he passed.

He is now more than ten times stronger than an ordinary person. Combined with the power-generating techniques of the Navy's Six Styles Middle Finger Pistol, he can easily shatter the throats and spines of several navy men with a light touch.

These were all spies planted by the CP department at Naval Headquarters. They had clearly just participated in the operation to spread rumors and knew that their identities would soon be exposed, so they simply used Bruno to take York away with them.

Robert showed no mercy to these CP agents who were determined to destroy him, especially since they had witnessed him appear using the Rumble-Rumble Fruit ability.

Even if he had already decided to give up the identity of Robert, he couldn't let the CP department so easily grasp the connection between his multiple identities, lest they use this to their advantage and guess his other plans.

Behind the portal was a medium-sized ship, and York was lying unconscious in a huge cage.

Brono's finger gun was aimed at Robert the moment he stepped through the portal. Robert sneered and grabbed it without hesitation.

Armament Haki-infused hand gripped Bruno's index finger, and with a snap, the finger was broken off at the root.

Bruno knew Robert all too well, but he never imagined that this young man, who had only recently joined the Navy, would be so powerful.

Ignoring the pain in his fingers, he raised his leg and swept it horizontally towards Robert's waist, intending to cut him in half with his stun kick.

Robert neither dodged nor avoided, but simply gripped Bruno's severed finger and exerted force, interrupting Bruno's lightning kick and sending his entire body flying sideways.

Bruno felt a sharp pain in his waist. He was flying in the air and didn't even see how his opponent made a move before Robert swept his side with a whip kick.

Then came the relentless, one-sided beating. Bruno cursed Alpha in his heart. This was no ordinary gangster; even a regular naval vice admiral shouldn't have this kind of fighting power!

A furious shout rang out: "Stop! Or I'll kill her!"

Robert stopped his retaliatory punches and kicks, stepped on Bruno's head as he lay slumped on the deck, and turned to look at the cage where York was kept.

Alpha has reverted to its original form and is pointing a high-tech-looking gun at York's head.

"Robert, do you know what you're doing?! You're declaring war on the World Government!"

Robert wore a sinister grin: "You were the ones who declared war on me first, dumped me at Marine Headquarters as a scapegoat, and then used me to trick York away..."

Although Alpha was exposed, he showed no shame and sneered, "You were originally a gangster. We were the ones who sent you into the Navy. Without our help, you would have been nothing more than an undocumented person who had to hide from the police for the rest of your life."

Robert lifted his foot, which was pressing down on Bruno, and then slammed it down, burying Bruno's head entirely in the deck.

What's it like to be beaten like a dog on the ground by a thug or an undocumented immigrant?

Alpha gritted his teeth and said, "Let him go, or I'll shoot your little girlfriend first!"

Robert burst into laughter: "Alpha, we've known each other for a long time. You haven't forgotten the fear I once instilled in you, have you!"

Alpha's eyes widened suddenly. During her interactions with Robert, he had always spoken kindly to her. Only now did she recall that when she first met Robert in the Kingdom of Luoxiuwang, he had severely injured her with a single move!

At that moment, with Robert's laughter, Alpha was horrified to discover that he was completely unable to move!

"How about it? My Devil Fruit ability is pretty good, isn't it?"

Have you seen the Time Stop series?

"Clap clap clap clap!"

Chapter 12 Long Confined in a Cage

Robert certainly wouldn't take his pants off at this moment, but it was still necessary to raise his hand and slap this vicious woman a few times to vent his anger.

Just as Bruno reached Alpha's side, Bruno, who was lying on the ground like a dead dog, suddenly fell into the deck.

Robert cursed inwardly. That's how unpredictable Devil Fruits are. Even though his Observation Haki was already very strong, it was really hard to predict what would happen if the other party was focused on opening the door to escape and wasn't targeting him.

This Door-Door Fruit allows one to travel thousands of miles directly, or hide in the space behind the door to spy on the real world; it is truly disgusting.

Now that Bruno has gone into hiding, I have to be constantly on guard against him.

Robert slapped Alpha a few more times, then turned to the CP agents around him who were trembling with fear and pointing their guns at him, and said, "Sail the boat, go wherever you want, or I'll kill you all."

Several agents had wanted to fire their guns for a while, but their fingers seemed to be controlled, and they couldn't pull the trigger no matter what they did. They knew that this was caused by the man in front of them using his Devil Fruit ability.

They had all obtained information about Robert before taking action, but it's really hard to understand something like a Devil Fruit ability without experiencing it firsthand.

The agents exchanged glances, gave up resisting, and went to set sail. Robert, on the other hand, simply searched Alpha for the key and opened the cage holding York.

After checking with an electric current, York was found to have been drugged. Although he was unconscious, all his bodily functions were normal, and his breathing was as steady as if he were asleep.

Robert directly manipulated the electronics on York's body, levitating her and lifting her out of the cage, then viciously threw Alpha inside.

Alpha regained his mobility, covered his swollen cheek, and glared fiercely at Robert: "We misjudged before. Your strength is actually so great. Join us, and we can easily handle the Navy."

Robert sneered: "You joined us, but you wouldn't tell me who you are. And now you're trying to play tricks on me?"

Alpha was speechless for a moment. She was a veteran agent and would never easily reveal information from the CP department. However, she had just tricked Robert, and it was obvious that she would not be able to regain his trust if she did not reveal some real information to him.

Alpha gritted his teeth: "We are a special operations agency directly under world government, called C..."

Before she could finish speaking, a portal suddenly appeared in the air behind her, and a large hand reached out and covered her mouth.

Alpha was pulled backward by a strong force, but the next second, she felt as if she was being pulled back by another force.

Robert wore a fisherman's smile as he pulled Alpha's body outwards, gathering his emotions as he glared fiercely at Bruno in the portal!

Bruno had been hiding in the portal space to observe Alpha since he escaped, and when he saw that Alpha was about to reveal the organization's information, he immediately wanted to open the portal to rescue her.

At this point, Robert locked Alpha in a cage in order to get revenge, but in doing so, he also effectively kept Alpha out of the cage.

Bruno figured that even if Robert discovered him the moment he opened the portal, Robert wouldn't be able to attack him through the cage. At most, Robert could fire a finger gun from a distance. Bruno could hide behind Alpha and risk injuring her, but he could still manage to rescue her.

But Robert reacted too quickly. The moment the portal opened, he took control of Alpha's body. The force was so great that even the seriously injured Bruno was pulled off balance and half of his body fell out of the portal.

Bruno immediately released Alpha's hand and tried to close the portal to protect himself.

But the next second, a huge mental shock hit him. Bruno felt that he forgot everything in that instant. Even his Devil Fruit ability shrank into a corner as his soul trembled, and no matter how he tried to activate it, it had no effect.
