Sailing: I Open Treasure Chests in the Pirate World

"To what extent can you recruit allies in Alabasta?"

"Or do you intend to use the knowledge of this 'Demon Child' to find the lost ancient weapons?"

Both of them were shocked by these words.

Crocodile immediately turned to look at Nico Robin beside him.

Crocodile, who has always disliked trusting others, suspects that this "Ms. Sunday" has betrayed him!

After receiving a look from Crocodile, Robin immediately raised her hands to show her innocence.

“I didn’t reveal any information to him, Mr. 0.”

"Tsk tsk, what a relationship of mutual distrust..."

Ian shook his head and extended the invitation with great interest.

"Nicole Robin, would you like to work for me?"

"At least I won't point the finger at my subordinates the moment an outsider exposes my secret."

What kind of skill is it to poach people from behind the scenes?

True pirates must openly NTR!

Before Nicole Robin could answer.

Crocodile then angrily wanted to end the conversation.

"Enough! Miss Sunday is my subordinate!"

"These days, even pirates can be recruited by the World Government and become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Who can't change careers?"

Ian waved his hand dismissively.

"Hey Nico Robin, wanna come over here?"

Nicole Robin forced a smile, revealing an awkward yet polite business-like grin.

The sand crocodile beside her was giving her a death stare; she certainly didn't want to answer this potentially fatal question...

Seeing Robin remain silent, Crocodile then turned his angry gaze to Ian.

"White Dragon, you bastard! Want to fight?"

"Do not want to."

I270 shook his head decisively.

"You're too weak, so weak that I'm not even interested."

Upon hearing this, Crocodile immediately wanted to throw a punch, but he was worried that he would be knocked down by that bastard White Dragon in the next second.

In the end, he could only rage helplessly and shut his mouth listlessly.

Robin carefully observed the interaction between the two.

She initially thought that the sand crocodile had only suffered a minor loss at the hands of "White Dragon".

But now it seems that it's not just a "small loss"...

The atmosphere inside the Rain Banquet Casino fell silent for a moment.

"What exactly do you want to do, White Dragon?"

Crocodile said helplessly.

"The two of us alone are going to challenge the Pirate Emperor?"

“It’s not just the two of us. Besides you, I have another subordinate.”

Ian introduced it solemnly.

"You may have heard of his name, 'Tyrant' Bartholomew Kuma, he is a user of the Paw-Paw Fruit."

"Tyrant, the [Paw-Paw Fruit]..."

Crocodile seemed to recall something from the past, and a shadow fell over his face.

"Alright! It's just going to find Whitebeard, right?! Fine, I'll go!"

"You're really obsessed with Whitebeard, old Crocodile."

Ian shook his head, then a smile appeared on his face.

"However, welcome to the team!"

"In order to establish a cooperative relationship, I can provide you with a free piece of information."

"The legendary, extremely evil warship, [Pluto], has a 'blueprint' that has been passed down through the ages."

"The blueprints for Hades? Really?"

Crocodile was startled and jumped up from his seat.

"where?"

“I also have some information about you, Nico Robin.”

Ian stopped looking at Crocodile and turned to Robin.

Do you remember the surname 'Haguwar'?

Haguwar?

Robin was instantly stunned.

next moment.

Robin turned to look at Crocodile and said decisively.

"Boss, I quit!"

Chapter 82 Old Sha, your boat is awesome!

The crocodile walked away, cursing.

At Ian's request, the host of the Rain Banquet went to prepare for the banquet.

With the alliance successfully formed and everyone moving towards the same goal, how could such a joyous occasion not be celebrated with a lively and sumptuous banquet?

Okay, actually it's mainly because Ian was hungry and wanted to eat lots of meat...

After the sand crocodile's figure had completely disappeared from sight.

Ian then looked at Robin again.

"Wasn't what you just said too hurtful to Crocodile?"

"How could that be, boss?"

Robin smiled slightly and skillfully changed his tone.

"Besides, so what if Mr. Crocodile was harmed? I've already resigned."

"I'm your subordinate now, boss!"

Robin's meaning is very simple—

I am a subordinate of the White Dragon! How could I possibly be afraid of a mere sand crocodile?

Robin cleanly dropped the topic of her former boss, bit her lip, and eagerly asked a question.

"Boss, what you just mentioned... Haguval?"

"Haguwar D. Sauro".

Seeing Robin's eagerness to surrender, Ian stopped beating around the bush and spoke directly.

Sixteen years ago, the World Government ordered the execution of a demon-slaying order on Ohara, the omniscient island in the West Blue.

"Haguval D. Saul was originally one of the five Navy Vice Admirals in charge of carrying out the Buster Call incident."

"However, he abandoned his 'camp' and chose true 'justice,' and then..."

"The current Marine Headquarters Admiral, Aokiji Kuzan, is completely frozen!"

Aokiji Kuzan...

The name seemed to awaken Robin's painful past, and she couldn't help but shudder.

The composed and confident older woman suddenly transformed into a trembling little girl.

“Sauro…Aokiji…he killed Sauro…”

"You didn't kill him."

"……Um?"

"I mean, Aokiji Kuzan did not kill Haguval D. Sauro."

Ian revealed this secret that had been frozen for many years.

"Sauro not only survived the original Buster Call incident, but he also 'saved' Ohara once again."

"After the Buster Call incident, Saul brought in help from the land of giants to take the 'knowledge' that the scholars of Ohara had risked their lives to preserve to the land of giants—Elbaf."

“Sauro…”

Robin covered her mouth with her hand, but tears still welled up in her eyes, instantly wetting most of her face.

Ian shrugged, stood up, and walked in the direction Crocodile had left, leaving Robin alone in the space.

The sound of weeping echoed inside the pyramid for a long time.

When Robin reappeared in front of Ian and Crocodile.

She exuded a pure and untainted aura...

"White Dragon."

Crocodile looked at Robin's rabbit-like red eyes and couldn't help but question her.

"What did you do to this woman?"

"secret."

Ian grabbed a large piece of sea king meat and stuffed it into his mouth, finishing it in the blink of an eye.

The [Diamond Chest] he had just obtained by defeating the Sand Crocodile had now been added to his [Strength] attribute.

[Power: ★★★★★★☆] (Six and a half stars)

"By the way, Old Sha—"

"You bastard! Don't call me Old Sha!"

"Okay, Old Fish."

Ian readily accepted the good advice.

"Prepare another boat for me, and fill it with plenty of wine. I'm leaving Alabasta soon."

Old fish...

Several twisted blue veins suddenly bulged on Crocodile's forehead.

This name is even worse than "Old Sha"!

Mixed protein dragon!

Crocodile took several deep breaths to suppress the anger rising within him.

"Where are you going?"

"A small garden."

Ian didn't hide anything and said it directly.

"There are two giants there; they must be quite strong."

"Old Fish, didn't you notice those two big guys before?"

"No! Call me! Old Fish!"

Crocodile spoke word for word.
