Chapter 370 Robin's Confession
Chapter 370 Robin's Confession
Three days after the Aurora Islands incident—
morning.
Above the vast ocean of the New World, the Flame Lion was moving forward aimlessly.
On the upper deck, Ace and Sabo were both wrapped in bandages and looked in very bad condition.
Robin stood on the right side of the ship, his arms folded across his chest, looking out to sea with great anxiety.
In the infirmary, Chopper was working hard to prepare medicine for everyone.
Bogart stood guard outside the infirmary door, his eyes sharp, to make sure Cap's final mission was completed.
Usopp was busy in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for everyone.
In the infirmary, Nami looked melancholy as she sat beside Luffy's bed holding his straw hat.
"Too scary... That kind of guy is too scary!" Nami took care of Luffy and said with trembling lips:
"How can such a person exist in this world? He is like... a god...
Everyone is clearly many times stronger than they were two years ago, yet they were all easily dealt with..."
Chopper was quietly preparing medicine at his workbench. When he heard Nami choking, he turned around and looked at her with caring eyes.
crunch--
The hatch was pushed open, and a nervous Robin walked in and closed the door.
"Robin...what should we do? Ever since we met that guy in Alabasta, our adventure has been...terrible."
Nami couldn't help it, and her frustration suddenly burst out. She rushed to Robin, grabbed her arms, and asked loudly:
"What kind of past do you have with him? And how much do you know about that guy?!"
Facing Nami's tearful questioning, Robin spoke to her without hesitation:
“He was my savior…the first person who made me feel warm.
Twenty years ago, during the O'Hara incident... He single-handedly killed the God of Finance, one of the five most powerful people in the world. He also defeated the young Akainu, Aokiji, Kizaru, and all the famous navy officers today..."
Nami was so frightened when she heard this that her sobbing stopped abruptly. She widened her eyes, let go of Robin, stepped back a few steps, and asked in disbelief, with a stunned expression:
"One person? You mean... twenty years ago, he defeated those monsters by himself?"
"To be precise, there is also Cooper! But Cooper died in his decision two years ago.
I shouldn't have... shouldn't have run away from him... I was just scared of him."
Robin's emotions suddenly became unstable, and his tone became a little stiff and trembling:
"He... wiped out the Seven Waters from the world with just one sword. So many innocent lives... I... felt that he was such a stranger at the time."
Nami stared at Robin's frightened look, suppressed her emotions, and went forward to comfort her.
From his words, it seemed that Arthur was not a completely unreasonable legendary figure.
Twenty years ago, when he was in his twenties, he risked his life to save Robin, so he must not be a bad person.
Maybe, letting Robin come forward to negotiate can put an end to the harsh words he made in the Aurora Islands.
"Robin...listen to me...maybe I have a way to end the misunderstanding between him and us...
After all, we don’t have any deep hatred with him, right? These are all grudges between our predecessors, and have nothing to do with us.”
She calmed down and said to Robin.
But the next second, Robin's expression suddenly froze, and he stared at Nami with pale eyes:
"If Cooper were still alive, maybe it would work, but Cooper is dead, and Arthur doesn't recognize me at all...
He seems to be no longer himself now... We are finished... We will all be killed by him..."
Robin became more and more excited as he spoke. He squatted down, covering his brain, his body shaking.
She couldn't believe that Arthur, who had always indulged her, would speak to her like that.
"Robin, calm down first. This is not good for your health. You've been too emotionally unstable lately."
Seeing Robin's look, Chopper hurriedly reminded her with concern.
"Anyway, let's wait until Luffy wakes up..." Nami stepped forward and prepared to help Robin up.
"No!" Robin suddenly yelled, "You don't understand, Nami, the next time we meet he will punish me for my infidelity and will kill one of us!
No one could stop him. According to the newspaper, even Luffy's father and grandfather were killed by him.
I have to leave, I don’t want to hurt you.”
Now Robin doesn't know why he has survived for more than 20 years.
Was it for O'Hara's fire? No.
Is it to find the truth of the historical text? No.
Or is it for the companions and future that I dreamed of when I was a child, just like what I am now? No.
Suddenly Robin realized that she had been waiting for the day to reunite with Arthur all her life.
She made a mistake and was abandoned by Arthur after the incident in Rogue Town. Everything she did in the past 20 years was to prove that she was useful to Arthur.
But the long betrayal, killing, bloodshed and twenty years of escape have made her forget all these things gradually.
Now I think about it and realize that things and people have changed.
If it weren't for Arthur, she would have committed suicide at O'Hara.
If she hadn't had various expectations of Arthur, she would have long wanted to give up in this dirty world.
"Wow!" Thinking of this, Robin cried out in the infirmary:
"I was wrong, Arthur...! I really want to see you perform the ice crystal fireworks again. I was so selfish."
Robin broke down for the first time in twenty years and cried in public.
Outside the cabin, Ace and Sabo heard the sound and came to the door, checking the situation in the infirmary through the porthole.
The crying also woke up Luffy, Zoro and Sanji who had been in a coma for three days.
The first one to open his eyes was Sanji. He looked at Robin after hearing the crying and asked:
"What's going on, Robin-chan? Who made you cry?"
The next one was Zoro. The first thing he did after opening his eyes was to look around.
Then he looked at Robin with a look of disbelief.
"Have we escaped? What happened during the coma?"
Zoro asked everyone, "Where are my swords? Yukizo, Sandai Onikiri, Wado Ichimonji... Damn, my body hurts."
"Why..." Luffy finally woke up and found that his body could not move at all and did not obey his commands. He said:
"My body feels so heavy...I can't move."
Waiting for consciousness to fully regain consciousness, Luffy stood up suddenly while enduring the pain in his body and looked around:
"Where are Dad and Grandpa? No...what happened?
I remember I switched to fourth gear, and then… and then I was ready to beat that guy up… and then… I can’t remember anything…”
Ace and Sabo were shocked to see him wake up and see that Luffy seemed to have completely lost his memory.
It is hard to imagine that Luffy, with his physique immune to physical attacks, could be easily beaten to the point of losing his memory.
"Ace! Sabo!" Luffy showed a tired smile when he saw his two brothers:
"Have you seen Dad and Grandpa?"
When the two heard Luffy's question, they looked at each other absentmindedly.
"Um...Luffy, how do you feel? Are you okay?" Sabo changed the subject and asked about his physical condition.
"It's just a little out of control...it doesn't seem to be anything serious." Luffy replied after checking his body wrapped in bandages.
"That's good. Don't think about other things for now. Take care of your health first, Luffy." Ace continued to say to him.
After listening to the two, Luffy looked at their injuries again and found something wrong, so he asked again:
“What happened to Dad and Grandpa, right?
Tell me, Sabo, Ace! What happened? ! "
