Chapter 319: Condition
Because of the masquerade, Robin didn't notice that they were being followed.
She often looked around carefully, and Su Xiao could tell that it was already a habit of hers. After all, she had been hunted for years.
Robyn was a tall, beautiful woman with healthy skin and soft black hair that reached to her shoulders. Her black dress accentuated her hourglass figure.
— Mr. Doctor, " Robin was still not a full member of the group, so she addressed her companion in a different way than the Straw Hat members did.
— Chopper looked at Robin. He was originally an ordinary reindeer, but at one point he ate the devil fruit Hito Hito no Mi and now he was no different from humans in terms of intelligence.
— There's a bookstore over there, " Robin pointed to a bookstore in the distance.
— Really? Chopper immediately looked in that direction. Medical books were a temptation Chopper couldn't resist.
This scene made Robin smile. Straw Hat pirates were very different from other pirates.
But soon Robin shook her head. She couldn't stay with them and decided to break up after arriving at Water 7.
Although she didn't want to leave, she had to do so so that her friends wouldn't get hurt because of her.
That's right, Robin already thought of them as her friends!
Chopper started to run to the bookstore, but stopped and asked Robin, " Can we go together?"?
Robin chuckled and looked at Chopper with a smile. "Sure, let's go!
— Great!
But at that moment, two figures in holiday clothes passed by Robin from left and right, and for those moments, all extraneous sounds disappeared from her ears.
— We're from CP9, " Bluno said, which made Robin freeze in place. Her mouth opened slightly and a light breeze began to blow her hair.
— Can we take the deer with us? Su Xiao asked.
Robyn's shoulders shook and her head sank.
— Go get him, and I'll get Robin.
Bluno nodded and looked in Chopper's direction.
Robin gritted her teeth, and the dagger slipped out of her sleeve. — You want to take my body with you?
Bluno stopped.
— Robin, this is a great bookstore, it has a lot of books! Chopper shouted.
Robyn smiled at Chopper as if nothing had happened and said, " Fine, but I'll buy myself a mask first, I'll meet you at the store.".
Chopper hesitated. For some reason, he didn't want to leave Robin's side. It seemed to him that if they parted now, they would never meet again.
— Then... Then I'll go with you.
Robin's heart sank and she hurriedly said — " It's okay, don't forget to buy me some history books. I'll be back soon.
Chopper was relieved and happily ran into the store, not noticing the sharp dagger in Robin's sleeve.
Su Xiao couldn't let Robin die before she got to Enies Lobby.
If he was returned to Heaven, it would be a huge loss for him.
After seeing Chopper enter the bookstore, Robin felt relieved and followed Su Xiao.
Robin knew that something like this would happen sooner or later, so she didn't even think about trying to escape when she heard that the two people next to her were from the SR9.
Robin looked at Su Xiao's back indifferently and felt tired. She had been on the run since she was eight and had been betrayed countless times during that time.
She didn't even know when she started using other people to protect her life.
There wasn't a single faction that rejected it. After all, she knew an ancient language, and Roger's legend was closely related to that language.
— I'm so stupid, " Robin muttered as she followed Su Xiao. If she had used the Straw Hat Pirates, she wouldn't be here, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.
She couldn't even imagine how these people would end up lying on the ground in their own blood.
Su Xiao took Robin to an abandoned warehouse. Once inside, Su Xiao took off his mask and suit.
— What are you doing?
Su Xiao's actions surprised Bluno.
— Everything all right.
Bluno quickly understood what Su Xiao meant and nodded.
Robin's hands trembled.
CP9 agents were always secretive, and the members of this organization did not let anyone know what the spies of the World Government looked like.
Seeing the appearance of one of them today meant that she wouldn't be left alive in the end.
— Nico Robin, you're under arrest, " Bluno said, but he didn't take off his mask because there was no point in doing so.
— I can go with you, but I have a condition, " Robin's body stopped shaking. She was tired and didn't want to hurt anyone to prolong her life. She didn't want to live like this anymore, and after coming to this thought, the pressure that was constantly shackling her body disappeared, and a smile appeared on her face.
— You have no right to negotiate, " Bluno said flatly.
— No, I have. The world government wants to get knowledge out of my head, and that's the reason why you've never tried to harm me, " Robin pulled out a dagger and held it to her neck.
Bluno's face changed. The situation was, to put it mildly, not pleasant.
— Smart, " Su Xiao said, and the coil on his armband tightened.
— You must know how to stop heavy bleeding?
Su Xiao's question confused Bluno.
— Hm?
— If you want her alive, I can just cut off her limbs.
When Robin heard this, her throat went dry and her hands began to shake.
Bluno looked at Su Xiao in amazement. He had the feeling that Byakuya had been a spy before, no, more like an executioner.
But considering that Su Xiao was able to pretend to be a person from the assassin organization earlier, it wasn't really surprising.
*Crackle!*
A soft crack escaped Robin's mouth and blue liquid began to flow out of her mouth.
— You've immobilized me, but you can't stop me from swallowing something. Now my mouth is full of poison, " Robin had another method. Given that she'd spent so much time running from the World Government, it was a pretty obvious insurance policy.
Robin had two poison capsules in her mouth. The shell of each capsule was very strong, so even if she accidentally swallowed them, nothing would happen in the end.
But if she bites through the capsule and swallows the poison, she will die within tens of seconds.
It was her last resort.
