Pirate: I am a logistics person, what the hell is the emperor

Chapter 108: Horror Lineup

It was getting dark, and the sunset was about to sink halfway over the distant horizon, burning the entire sky red.

Birds were circling low in the sky and the temperature began to get colder. Compared with the sunny and windy day, the fiery clouds in the sky seemed to indicate that a storm was coming.

Except for the huge fountain at the highest point, the activity area of the City of Seven Waters is divided into two layers, inner and outer.

The inner circle is the central street, where the seven large docks are located, and it is connected to the outer area below through watergate elevators.

The outer area is also called the back street, which has a huge height difference from the central street.

Franky's House, the scrapyard, and where the Merry was docked were all on the outskirts, and there were also a large number of residential houses.

At this time, although it was sunset time, the back street was extremely busy, but everyone looked anxious.

"Wife! Are you sure everything is packed?"

"It's done. Nail the doors and windows tight."

"Don't worry about my craftsmanship." A blond middle-aged man wearing round-frame glasses patted his chest and said.

He kept hitting with a hammer, sealing the doors and windows tightly, while muttering:
"It is said that the water gods will be very powerful this year. It will be troublesome if water enters the house."

"Who says it isn't?"

Behind the man stood a woman with orange-red hair. She was the man's wife. There were a bunch of sundries at her feet and she looked worried.
"Fortunately, the mayor always opens the dock for residents to take refuge before the water gods come. Otherwise, with so many people on the street, I don't know what I'm going to do tomorrow."

The rain is coming and the wind is all over the building.

At this time, there were many people like this couple in the back street. All their doors were closed, and they were carrying large and small bags, dragging their families to the central street with higher terrain for refuge.

Call ~
A cool breeze blew, carrying with it the chill of the sea, making people shiver uncontrollably and getting goose bumps.

Reiner walked along the street beside the waterway, and from what he saw he realized that a disaster was approaching the island.

The Gods of Water are affected by the magnetic field of the Seven Water Cities, which causes a special climate. Huge tsunamis hit the island once a year.

On the day before the arrival of the water gods, the low-lying back streets will be almost completely submerged.

The residents had to move out one after another for shelter, so after Iceberg took office, he opened the seven large docks as shelters every year.

At this time, it was a pub near Dock No. 1 on Center Street.

It was clearly the time when the bar business was just starting, but there was a sign on the door saying "Not Open Yet", and there was no owner or bartender at the front desk.

Behind the pub
There were chairs placed in the secret room, and only a few candles were lit. The dim light could not illuminate the entire house, and the red walls looked a little dim.

A burly man with a black horn hairstyle and a rough appearance sat at one end, while opposite him sat a black-haired woman in a slim leather jacket.

It was Robin who quietly left the Merry!

"Nico Robin, the note I gave you during the day said it was before four in the afternoon."

Bruno spoke in a low voice. He was a spy sent by the World Government to lurk in Water 9 five years ago, and a member of CP.

I have been running this pub for five years. It is located near Dock No. 1, so the customers I have been receiving for many years have all been the boatmen here.

Bruno has come into contact with almost everyone who has some connection with the iceberg over the years.

"Why are you so late?"

Bruno's voice was deep and heavy, with dissatisfaction in his tone. "I had to suspend business because of this, which is not a good thing for a professional spy."

"You said this."

Robin raised his hand and put a note on the table. He went out for a walk during the day, and when Zoro got lost, Bruno contacted him.

The other party simply identified himself and handed her a piece of paper with the address of the hotel and 4pm written on it.

"I don't remember promising you to come."

Robin said expressionlessly, "So, the rumored CP9 is actually lurking on this island. What is your purpose? Why are you looking for me?"

"Don't worry about this!"

Bruno's face was filled with dissatisfaction, "We have been lurking here for five years, so we have our own purpose. Now I am talking about you, Nico Robin!
"The Straw Hat Pirates' route is too easy to guess. They brought someone like you with them and even followed the record pointer all the way. It seems that you didn't tell your companions about your past."

"Stop talking nonsense."

Robin interrupted Bruno and said coldly: "You didn't call me here just to make fun of me."

"You seem very excited. Do you care so much about those pirates?" Bruno observed Robin's expression calmly.

They had been lurking for five years just to get the ancient weapon designs in Bingshan's hands.

There was a lot of useless information, and they even knew everything about Iceberg's daily life, but there was no information related to the design drawings. The other party's caution was beyond their imagination.

However, the people above still did not issue any other instructions. Sometimes, Bruno even had the illusion that the higher-ups had forgotten about them.

After all, their commander, Spandam, is simply
Until a while ago, when the people above learned that Nico Robin was going to come to Water 7, they informed them that they could close the net in advance and find a way to bring her back.

Otherwise, Bruno thought he would stay in this tavern forever.

Although this is fine. "Nico Robin, I won't beat around the bush with you."

Bruno crossed his arms over his chest and went straight to the point of their original plan: “We will take you away, and as long as you cooperate, we will not attack the Straw Hat Pirates;
"This is just a simple deal, what are you going to do, Nico Robin?"

"What if I refuse?" Robin was not afraid at all.

"Then we will just go to war, and after we have wiped out the Straw Hats, we will take you away by force."

The real dagger is revealed!
Bruno spoke in a cold tone and made his point clear in a few words.

In fact, it would be best if they could avoid a direct war, because they don’t just have Nico and Robin as their mission.

According to the intelligence, there seem to be two powerful masters in the Straw Hat Pirates.

Although Bruno was very confident that they would have no problem dealing with three hundred million people since they had practiced martial arts that surpassed human limits.

But if a fight breaks out and something happens, it will delay the mission on the iceberg side and the result will be more trouble than gain.

They even had a second plan for this.

"You can try it anyway."

Robin's eyes flashed coldly, and he crossed his hands in front of him, "If you want to go to war with us, even if it's the rumored CP9, we can't just take them at will."

She knew cp9 was very strong, but.

She chose to trust her partner!

Robin still vividly remembers the scenes where Reiner and Luffy teamed up to fight Crocodile and Enel in Alabasta and Sky Island.

No matter it was Luffy who was covered in white mist and attacked in the blink of an eye with a ghostly figure.

Or Reiner, who commands a group of powerful undead and creates flying sand and flames in the sky with a wave of his hand? These two powerful figures are deeply imprinted in Robin's heart.

With them around, even the rumored powerful CP9 may not be unable to defeat them!
"Don't act rashly Nico Robin."

When Bruno saw Robin's gesture, he immediately mobilized all the blood in his body and used the Iron Block in the Six Styles.

"I think you have misunderstood one thing. Your opponent is not us, CP9, but the World Government. You should know what it means to be the enemy of the World Government.

"The higher-ups are determined to succeed in your mission this time. If necessary, they can even issue a demon-killing order against the Straw Hat Pirates!"

"What did you say!"

In the airtight room, the flame on the candle kept flickering, and the weak candlelight made Bruno's face appear even darker.

Robin was incredulous when he heard this. He slammed his hands on the table and couldn't help but stand up.

"You must be kidding! This is the Seven Water City, the official shipyard of the World Government. How could they issue a demon-killing order here?"

The Demon Killing Order, that is a tragic memory that Robin will never forget.

Led by five lieutenant generals, there are ten warships and ten thousand marines from the headquarters, including hundreds of elites above the colonel level.

Launch indiscriminate attacks on the target area until it is completely destroyed!
More importantly, the power to issue the Demon-Slaying Order lies only with the marshal and three admirals in the navy camp!

In other words, it is very likely that a general is paying close attention to CP9's actions!
Is it Aokiji? It must be him!
Robin began to panic. She had just encountered him some time ago. The strength that Aokiji had unintentionally displayed was so strong that even Reiner and Luffy might not be able to match him.

Bruno's words were like a cold weight, weighing heavily on Robin's heart, making her almost unable to breathe.

"nothing is impossible."

Bruno's tone revealed a threat, "You underestimate your position in the World Government. In addition, the legendary admiral who is known as the hero of the navy is not far from this sea area.

"If it really comes to that, the higher-ups will definitely call him over for support. You should know what such a lineup means to the Straw Hat Pirates."

"Navy hero!"

Robin's pupils instantly dilated when he heard this title.

A man's reputation is like the shadow of a tree. This naval hero, who had sailed on the sea for decades and was known to everyone, was like the last straw that broke the camel's back and made her completely despair.

In addition to the CP9 in front of us, there are also the Demon Slayer, the headquarters admiral, and the navy hero.

This kind of lineup is definitely a devastating blow to their pirate group!

Robin gritted her teeth and stared at Bruno. The other party didn't seem to be lying. She didn't expect that the World Government would go to such lengths for her.

Is she really destined not to be with everyone?

The fire gradually dimmed, like a candle in the wind that would go out at any moment, but Robin was unwilling to loosen his clenched hands.

"I see."

Robin slumped back in his chair, feeling hopeless, and said, "I agree to your terms, as long as you promise not to attack my companions again.
"I'll leave with you."

Bruno also breathed a sigh of relief. It would save a lot of trouble if he didn't have to go to war with the Straw Hat Pirates.

"It's a wise choice. This is the best way and will benefit both of us."
