Chapter 140
Water 7 Backstreet, an empty warehouse.
"Nice job, Nico Robin."
In this dark warehouse, two people sat across from the round table, with a tall silhouette standing beside them.
"That kind of trivial thing, as easy as blowing off dust."
Nico Robin in black leather opened the newspaper in his hand, and the headline was three pictures of arrest warrants: Own, Luffy's, Zoro's.
The murderer of the city hero Mr. Iceburg! ! 》
Under the terrifyingly bold and extended title, there is also a huge bounty from Water 7, 50 million Beli per person!
Of course, even without bounty, the anger of the entire city could no longer be suppressed. Numerous boatmen armed with axes, saws, and muskets spontaneously organized to search for the murderer.
And the real murderer is happily negotiating to assassinate their mayor again here.
"The most important thing is tonight!"
Sitting across from Robin, the calm voice of the man hiding in the shadows echoed in the warehouse.
"We're going into Mr. Iceburg's room again,"
"No matter how crazy he plays, we must get that thing!"
finished The man across from him glanced up at Robin,
"You remember,"
"We're doing a righteous cause!"
Without a doubt , The actions of the two CP9 members belonging to the Government in the room are indeed 'justice'.
Under the authorization of the Government to do dark things in the name of justice, as long as you get the design drawings to recreate the 'Dark King' or even mass production, you can end the Great Age of Pirates. The 'peaceful' life of ordinary people will also come...
Of course, at that time, it is reasonable for the World Government holding the Dark King to raise the heavenly gold by '100 million little bit', after all Celestial Dragon also has to eat.
What's more, there are so many vested interests attached to the big tree of Government!
"Let's go."
The discussion was over, and the three of them got up at the same time and took the cloak mask hanging beside them. ——This island happens to be in the festival of 'Mask Carnival', so this disguise is 'normal' instead.
The three of them walked out of the warehouse at the same time, and just as they were walking to the door, something strange happened! They disappeared into the air one after another, as if there was a door there connecting to the rest.
Empty.
After a while, a seagull flapped its wings and fell into the warehouse, gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu gu str a step to look around, peck step by step to the bottom of the round table, and then the head suddenly rotated 180 degrees. !
In the spooky seagull 'eye', the back of the wooden table is filled with lines of text.
······
"That woman is dishonest,"
Two silhouettes appeared out of thin air in a deserted alley, walking behind A tall man in a checkered cloak and a bear hood reports to the man next to him in a white trench coat and bull hood.
"She left a message under the table."
"Don't mind her."
The man in the bull's hooded trench coat looked at the head calmly.
"Her abilities don't work for all of us, and once the emotional reins are tied, the headache 'Ohara Demon' can only be a flag."
While talking, the man took off the bull's head hood, untied the windbreaker and handed it to the bear-head cloak next to him, at the same time a pigeon flew and landed on his shoulder.
"Ready, tonight we'll-?"
"There's no check here yet-"
Amid the sound of rapid footsteps, a group of Armed boatmen rush into the alley! But they immediately lowered the weapons in their hands, because a man with a black top hat and a white vest stood in the alley.
"Foreman Lucci, why are you here?"
The man they honored as 'Foreman Lucci' was a serious man, wearing suspender trousers, over his shoulders Squatting with a pigeon. Facing the questions of the boatmen, the man had a straight face, but instead the pigeon on his shoulder flapped its wings with rage.
"Gu gu gu, Mr. Iceburg was assassinated, do you think you are the only ones investigating this!"
"Lucci is also very angry, just look at his face Isn't it?"
Ah, this is the expression of Foreman Lucci...
Forget it,
"It turned out to be Foreman Lucci I'm also investigating this matter." The boatmen nodded turned and left, the foreman in front of him was well-known for his seriousness and strength. With him on tour, they would simply not be needed.
—————————
'I won't come back to you again,'
'Let's say goodbye in this city. '
'Those things about me in the past are true...'
'I broke into Mr. Iceburg's room last night and assassinated him too. '
'The situation will continue to worsen. You will be responsible for the crime, and I will take the opportunity to escape. '
'Although we haven't been together for a long time, you have always been kind to me, thank you. Finally - goodbye. '
On a piece of white paper placed on the table, a line of text appeared in a rustling manner, making everyone in the Straw Hat group silent.
"The so-called situation continues to deteriorate, is Robin preparing to-"
Zoro looked at Roman, this is the text projected from the back of the round table in the abandoned warehouse with his ability .
"Probably the 'real' assassination of the mayor of Iceburg."
Nami took over the topic. In fact, the people in the Straw Hat group are not only stupid, but also very smart. It's just that it's usually covered up by jokes and jokes. Once they got serious, they quickly analyzed a lot of useful information from between the lines left by Robin.
"That is, if we stay at the mayor's house tonight."
Sanji lit a cigarette.
"We'll be able to meet Robin."
"That way, we can ask Miss Robin what's the problem!"
Chopper concluded happily .
"Don't be so optimistic," Zoro calmly offered another possibility.
"Maybe this is a trap!"
"Robin is well aware of our abilities and knows that Roman has always maintained the habit of sending out scout birds to keep an eye out. So it's also possible that Deliberately leaving words that mislead us."
"As long as we show up at the mayor's house tonight, it will confirm the fact that we are 'assassin'!"
After the analysis , all looked towards Luffy and Roman.
One is the decider and the other is the planner.
·········
"Urgent report, urgent report!"
"The giant tsunami 'Aqua Lagna' is coming Come tonight!"
"Please go to the shipyard to take shelter, repeat, please the general public..."
? ? ?
"This is-"
"This is a special natural phenomenon of this island, every year the city is submerged by a giant tsunami, at this time people will enter the shelter of the shipyard Evacuate.”
“At the same time, when the tsunami hits the water capital, high concentrations of sea salt will be left on the eaves of each house, and local residents will also use the sea salt left by the giant tsunami to cook their dishes.”
Roman sighed smoothly after finishing the information the paper birds heard.
"It's really a house leak and it rains all night..."
Robin and the Government's dark killing intent are mixed together, Usopp and Merry leave the group, immediately There is a giant tsunami coming...
"So, what do you think, Luffy?"
"Any CP or a tsunami," Luffy looked outside as he was dragging his home The citizens who took refuge with their mouths, and the armed boatmen who were guarding the Galley-La Company headquarters not far away, their faces remained unmoved.
"I'm going to find Robin and ask her a question!"
"She's already messaged us to—"
"Why should I listen to her! "
Luffy's answer made Roman shrugged, and with a slight shake, the text on the paper in his hand disappeared immediately.
"Then, everyone, conserve strength and store up energy, there is a tough battle waiting for you at night!"

Water 7 Dock 6,
Warehouse under the bridge.
"Aren't you giving up yet? Little Brother."
This warehouse is a secret base belonging to Franky and is now 'lent' to Usopp by him to park the Golden Merry.
"That's right, the 'ship spirit' can be born, it seems that you really regard this ship as a partner. But—"
Looking at the banging After hitting Usopp who was repairing the ship, Franky had to persuade him again.
"Let it go, Little Brother."
"It's time for your ship... to rest."
"You're just here Force the boat to do things beyond his capabilities, and finally—"
The perverted uncle Franky sat on the shabby sofa, his hands propped up in front of him.
"Let him all split up and in pieces on his next voyage, and sink into the sea with the regret of not being able to send his crew to shore!"
Clang,
The hammer left his hand, the nails rolled all over the floor, and Usopp sat on the ground with a sullen face.
"Yeah, I gave up on myself."
"Why force the Merry?"
I don't know how Luffy and them are doing already? Why is this unfathomable mystery involved in the assassination of the mayor, I should do something -
What do I think, it's not the Straw Hat group anymore. And there are also Roman, Zoro and the others...
The wind is howling, the dark clouds weigh down the city, and
layers of waves hit Water 7, like the city surging secretly. shadow.
The powerhouses who are secretly full of thoughts are wiping their knives and guns, preparing their weapons, just waiting for the night to come!
