— This... Kalifa's fists clenched and her slender fingers snapped. — You want to... For me to ... protect him?
— Yes, even if we have to die for it, " Lucci gave her a clear answer without a shred of doubt on his face.
— He is very important to us. The bombs he can make are perfect for our missions, " Bluno said, knowing full well how useful they were.
— Orders from superiors are not discussed, " Kaku patted the Caliph on the shoulder.
— I — " Kalifa lowered her head, her shoulders shaking.
Lucci looked at Kalifa in silence, and she took a deep breath and calmed down.
— Kalifa tried to get rid of the dissatisfaction in her heart, but every time she tried to do so, she was reminded of those humiliations.
— Byakuya, please remove the bombs, we're on the same side now, " Lucci didn't use a commanding tone and that's exactly what he asked to do, since they were now of the same rank.
— Su Xiao jumped down from the wooden box and walked towards Califa, then placed one hand on her chest.
Kalifa gritted her teeth and said — " What are you doing?
— Do you still care about this level of contact? After all, we did it earlier, " After saying that, Su Xiao unbuttoned Kalifa's jacket.
Lucci coughed slightly when he heard this.
— This is bomb disposal?
— Yes, the composition of the bombs is very toxic, if I don't eliminate it, she will die in less than half a month.
Lucci looked at Bluno for confirmation and saw him nod.
— Lucci immediately went outside, followed by the others.
After putting away his clothes, Su Xiao touched his finger to Kalifa's skin and felt the location of the bombs, but he quickly realized that it wouldn't be easy to get them out.
Previously, he had almost activated them a couple of times, causing them to dig into her body. As for the first bomb, right now, he could only try to extract the poison from it.
If she suddenly dies, the SR people will come for him.
Su Xiao started pouring mana into her body and started probing the bombs.
After a long time, Su Xiao opened his eyes, looked at Caliph, and said — " Take off everything. I need you to be completely naked.
The Caliph's eyes twitched. "Even underwear?
— If you want the bombs to eat away at your stomach, leave it at that..
Kalifa took a deep breath and did as he said. After convincing herself that it was to keep her alive, she calmed down.
Su Xiao touched a spot near her navel with his finger and poured a large amount of mana into her body.
— This...
— Don't make a sound, slow down your breathing, no, it's better to hold it, " Su Xiao closed his eyes. It was easy to find the bomb, but it was not so easy to get it out.
For half an hour, Lucci and the others occasionally heard strange noises that sometimes left the three of them speechless.
Eventually the warehouse door opened and Kalifa came out of the warehouse with a tired face.
— After saying this, Kalifa sat down on the ground. Kaku wanted to help her, but Lucci stopped him.
— Byakuya, please take care of the Caliph. After saying that, Lucci looked at Kalifa and said, " Our identities can't be revealed at this time. — Let Byakuyu know our plan.
Their goal all along has been the Pluto construct, and they've been here for five whole years just for it.
But a few days ago, they received a new assignment — they had to arrest Nico Robin, who was sailing towards Water 7 along with the Straw Hat Pirates.
The discovery of Nico Robin surprised the World Government, but it immediately handed over the mission to capture her to CP9.
Even if they had been on the island all this time for the sake of Pluto's construction, now it would be better if they arrested Nico Robin.
The reason why the World Government did not take active steps to obtain this Pluto construct was because it was written in an ancient language that only a few people in the world could now read.
And Nico Robin was one of those "few", and, of course, this played into the hands of not only the World Government.
Even if the probability that a new Pluto would be created for someone else was one in a thousand, the World Government would not sit idly by.
It was because of this that the World Government gave the order to capture Nico Robin.
Lucci ordered Kalifa to inform Byakuya about their plan to capture Nico Robin, but they decided not to mention Pluto..
Kalifa stood up, looking exhausted. — Very well.
Lucci and the others were already gone.
— Can we talk during the meal? I know a good restaurant nearby, " Su Xiao took a step forward, and Kalifa took a step back in response.
In the end, Su Xiao brought Kalifa to the old man's restaurant. The old man immediately greeted him warmly, and his attitude towards the Caliph was quite good.
To be precise, the old man was actually in awe of such a handsome customer.
After eating, Su Xiao and Kalifa went to the coast, where there were almost no people. Although the two of them were close in the eyes of outsiders, they weren't here for a date at all.
— Tell me about the plan.
Although Su Xiao knew about their plan, he still needed to hear it for the sake of them not suddenly starting to suspect him.
Kalifa quickly filled Su Xiao in on their plan to capture Nico Robin.
As soon as she finished speaking, a new task appeared in front of him.
[Side Mission: Capture Nico Robin.
Difficulty: Level 6.
Description: Escort Niko Robin to Enies Lobby.
Reminder: If Nico Robin dies before reaching Enies Lobby, the mission will be considered a failure.
Lead time: 3 days.
Completion Reward: 5,000 Paradise Coins.
Task Failure Penalty: Relations with the World Government will be reduced by 700 points.]
Su Xiao immediately accepted the task. After all, it was a free 5,000 Paradise coins.
Soon after, Kalifa said — " All you have to do is hide, otherwise you'll cause trouble.".
— Su Xiao stared at Kalifa, who was clearly provoking him right now.
— I still haven't fought you, but today I can also experience Rokushiki in battle, " Su Xiao pulled out the dragon flash and pointed its blade at Kalifa.
Kalifa smiled.
She finally had a chance to teach him a lesson.
