Dunn stopped walking, and Robin bumped into him without noticing. She looked up and saw that Dunn had turned around and was looking down at her.

Did I say something wrong?

Robin's heart skipped a beat.

Her previously cautious nature made her overthink things.

"Then I came for nothing?" Just as Robin was lost in thought, Dunn suddenly spoke up with a smile.

what?

Looking at Dunn's smile, Robin was momentarily stunned.

Why did I go to sea?

Dunn put his arm around Robin's shoulder and walked forward with him, then asked a question.

Upon hearing this, Robin, whose shoulder was being put to his side, turned his head and looked up at Dunn's profile.

His face still looked a bit childish, and you could tell he wasn't very old, yet he already possessed such great strength. A sense of reassurance quietly rose in my heart.

Robin relaxed a bit and pondered Dunn's words.

"Fighting against a strong opponent?"

She asked.

"Yes, that's part of getting stronger," Dunn nodded.

"and then?"

Robin countered with a question.

"And then?"

"And then what happens after you become stronger?" Robin prompted.

Dunn pondered for a moment upon hearing this, then turned to look at Robin and shook his head. "I haven't thought about it. Perhaps it's to become famous at sea? But that doesn't seem to be what I want either."

"Become a pirate?"

Robin looked at Dunn and asked again.

"I never intended to become a pirate. Even if there are real adventurers among them, a pirate is still a pirate."

Dunn shook his head.

"Um!"

Robin nodded; he was familiar with the pirates' modus operandi.

"It's said that before the Pirate King was killed, he left all his treasure on the final island. Don't you want to get it?"

"The final island?" Dunn turned his head to look into Robin's eyes, his gaze clear and peaceful.

"The treasure there is different from what these pirates think it is."

Dunn shook his head slightly.

If we're talking about treasure, taking down the Golden Emperor is clearly a better deal.

Even if the final island has treasure, the amount certainly won't be as much as what the Golden Emperor possesses.

For Dunn now, treasure, or rather money, is something that is readily available.

"Since you haven't decided yet, why not set a small goal first!"

Robin could tell that Dunn didn't seem to have a clear purpose, so he offered his suggestion.

"That's a good idea. Let's start by making a name for ourselves across the world."

Dunn stroked his chin, then lowered his head slightly and kissed Robin on the forehead.

Then, Robin's body tensed up instantly.

Dunn, who had his arm around Robin's shoulder, could sense Robin's current condition and couldn't help but laugh.

Robin, who had seemed quite rational just moments before, now had flushed cheeks and a vacant look in his eyes, as if he had been bewildered by Dunn's sudden action.

"Since the goal is to become famous throughout the world, is Chinjao the pirate with the highest bounty in the West Blue?"

Dunn spoke up, easing the panic on Robin's side.

She blushed, looked up at Dunn, thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Many great figures have emerged from the West Blue, but they have all left for the Grand Line. The one with the highest bounty now is indeed the 12th generation leader of the Hachipo Navy, but he doesn't appear much anymore. His grandson is currently in charge of the Hachipo Navy."

Robin thought for a moment and gave an answer.

"If I defeat him, will I become famous throughout the Western Sea?"

Dunn asked.

"Of course. Twenty years ago, his bounty was already 500 million Berries. If he hadn't encountered a naval hero, he might be the ruler of the Grand Line now."

"Another one of Garp's nemesis!"

Dunn chuckled, recalling the image of him hitting Garp with an electric cannon on Garp's ship, blackening Garp's eye socket.

"However, how are we going to find him? This is the Land of Flowers after all. If we go directly there, we might be surrounded and attacked."

Robin was somewhat worried.

Even if Dunn were incredibly powerful, he would suffer greatly if surrounded and attacked.

"Actually, we don't need to actively look for it. Someone nearby already heard us talking just now."

As Dunn spoke, he glanced around.

Robin's heart tightened, then he turned to look around, pulling his hood down slightly to cover half of his face.

"Now we just have to wait."

"The other party's identity is unusual. Even so, it's unlikely that the person who came wasn't Green Pepper."

Robin reminded him.

"It's okay, if it's not coming now, it will be coming later."

Robin's heart skipped a beat; he understood what Dunn meant.

However, considering Dunn's previous encounter with Aokiji, he should be able to handle the current situation.

……

"Garp? And he mentioned Old Man Green Pepper? Is he here to cause trouble?"

Twenty-year-old Lao Cai has already taken over most of the affairs of the Babao Water Army. Who can blame him when his old man has lost his temper and spends his days staring blankly at the treasures under the ice?

So when he heard the news from his subordinates, Lao Cai immediately became interested.

"Should we tell the old man?"

Buwu, carrying three battle axes on his back, asked.

"No way, the old man would probably fly into a rage if he heard the name Garp."

They knew all too well the feud between Green Pepper and Garp.

Even mentioning the name Garp would send the old man into a berserk state.

"Hehehe, let's go meet this guy!"

Old Cai stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then grabbed the long-handled knife beside him and stood up, with Bu Wu following behind him.

"Just send someone to arrest these two people."

"No way, since they dare to provoke us, they must have some strength. Those guys might not be a match for us."

Old Cai shook his head directly.

But actually, he just had an itch to do it.

There's still some time before we set sail, and someone's causing trouble, so this is a good opportunity to get some exercise.

This is Lao Cai's idea.

On the other side, Robin quickly realized that something was wrong.

The number of people around dwindled as they walked away, while the people who appeared were all strong and muscular, with fierce-looking faces.

"We have indeed been discovered; these must be members of the Babao Water Army."

Robin whispered to Dunn.

Dunn didn't answer, but tightened his grip on Robin's shoulder to reassure him.

"We're on our way to the Babao naval base, but we don't know who will show up next."

Dunn activated his Observation Haki to its fullest extent, and he "saw" everything around him.

In the distance, the Eight Treasures Navy had already imposed martial law, preventing the people from the Flower Kingdom from getting close.

To put it simply, they are now surrounded by the Babao Water Army.

Robin's Observation Haki was probably not awakened, so she couldn't perceive this situation and could only analyze it based on what she could see around her.

"They're here!"

Just as Robin was becoming wary, Dunn suddenly stopped and spoke.

Robin's heart tightened, and he looked up ahead.

After a while, a large group of people appeared from the main road ahead.

"It's Cai Yi and Bu Wu; they should be in charge of the Babao Navy now."

Robin recognized him immediately and whispered a reminder.

"I know!"

Dunn recognized him too.

The person who came was Lao Cai, who would marry Baby5 in the future and become the captain of the third division of the Straw Hat Grand Fleet, leading the entire Happo Navy to join the Straw Hat crew.
