Usopp looked regretful. He was also very interested in these magical sky island shells, but he didn't dare to ask for them directly. Unexpectedly, Robert casually took the last one.

Just as he was about to turn around and discuss with Robert whether he could lend it to him for research, Usopp suddenly showed a terrified expression, his mouth wide open and unable to close.

The group followed his gaze and saw a tall, shirtless man sitting lazily on the railing at the bow of the boat, looking at them with a mocking expression.

Robert's heart raced, but he tried his best to relax his body, taking two and a half steps to stand next to Gan Fall, as if to protect him.

Sanji, being the strongest fighter remaining on the ship, stepped forward without hesitation and delivered a kick.

A dazzling flash of lightning streaked across the sky, and Sanji, who had just made his kicking motion, collapsed to the ground, his body charred black.

This time, Robert observed from a closer distance, but he still couldn't see how Enel made his move. He seemed to just sit there motionless, and lightning appeared out of thin air, cooking Sanji until he was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Nami and Usopp rushed over to check, and Usopp's face turned deathly pale: "It's over! Sanji has no heartbeat!"

Enel looked regretful: "That man is really stupid. I didn't come here to harm you."

Gan Fall had a murderous look on his face, but apart from Robert, who was deliberately slacking off, no one else was sitting more steadily than the old man.

"Then what are you here for!"

Enel laughed and said, "How indifferent. It's been six years since we last met, former god, Gan Fall."

Usopp was still wailing when Robert couldn't help but whisper, "You touched his right chest, didn't you? His heart is on the left..."

Enel wanted to catch up with Gan Fall, but then he saw Usopp, who had just confirmed that Sanji was still alive, stand up, trembling, and begin to make threats:

"What did you do to Sanji! Don't try to run away! My 8000 men won't let you get away with this! But if you run away now, I'll spare your life, how about that?"

Robert quietly took another half step back. Usopp was truly brave, relying on his invincible cheat code to court death in various ways.

Enel's figure suddenly blurred and disappeared, then appeared in front of Usopp in the next instant. He gently touched Usopp's forehead with his finger, and another burst of electricity erupted. Usopp collapsed next to Sanji.

Gan Fall yelled, "You bastard!"

His tone was more indignant than anyone else's, but his actions spoke louder than anyone else's.

Robert held his breath. Although he knew that he wouldn't be attacked as long as he did nothing, anyone standing in front of Enel would find it hard to resist his powerful sense of oppression. Robert even wondered if this guy also possessed Conqueror's Haki.

Enel said threateningly, "I won't do anything as long as you shut up, understand?"

Nami covered her mouth and nodded vigorously, while Robert, seemingly indifferent, simply raised his hand.

Enel seemed quite satisfied, began to say goodbye to Gan Fall, and then disappeared from the ship with a whoosh.

Robert quickly stepped forward, picked up Sanji and Usopp in each hand, and carried them towards the cabin.

Nami quickly caught up: "What are you doing! Put them down!"

Robert frowned and said, "Hey, they're badly injured. We can't let them lie on the deck. I'll move them inside and give them some basic treatment."

Nami regained some of her senses: "Right, right, we have to hurry and save them! I'll go get the medicine!"

Robert put the person into the cabin, but before Nami could bring the medicine, he heard her exclamation from the bow of the ship:

"What?! Who are you?!"

Two identical, overweight men yelled, "We're nothing! We're the deputy commanders of the Divine Soldiers!"

Robert stood up, preparing to go out and meet the enemy, when Blackbeard's voice rang out behind him: "Who was that just now? I sensed a chilling power!"

Robert thought to himself, "You're a real dog. You didn't say a word when Enel was around, but now that he's gone, you're all flustered."

"It should be the same person who attacked you yesterday. He's already gone, Captain, don't worry."

Blackbeard's voice was urgent: "Seize the ship and escape immediately! We can't wait any longer!"

Robert spoke respectfully, but his face was full of indifference: "Yes, Captain, but there are still enemies outside. I'll deal with them first and then make my move!"

When Robert turned to look out of the cabin, his eyes were already filled with fighting spirit:

"I can't beat Liu Haizhu, the Thunder Mage, but can't I bully you two idiots?"

Chapter 12's plot follows a natural progression.

The sky island is now fraught with danger, and Robert really can't guarantee that his limited strength will be able to cause much trouble.

So from the very beginning, he planned to follow Nami's path. As long as he stayed close to this chosen one, he could even make his way to Enel's ship unscathed!

As for the two guys who attacked the Going Merry, although they are the younger brothers of the priest Shadley who beat Luffy, Sanji and Usopp to a pulp, in terms of fighting power, they can indeed be called the younger brothers.

The heavily wounded Gan Fall could have taken down one of them with a single shot, while the other was easily defeated by Nami with a simple steam attack using Impact Bay.

Robert now sees himself as a match for Nami. He can definitely fight any enemy Nami can defeat, but he's not going to risk anything Nami can't.

Therefore, these two junior priests were experience packs he had already reserved for himself.

The pirate Rossio, who previously defeated the pirate with 4200 million Berries, only gained 200 experience points. This number must be problematic.

According to the bounty, the amount is too small, but according to one's own combat contributions, the number is a bit too much.

Therefore, the experience gained that time was of no reference value. Robert plans to use these two priests to test how much experience the super soldiers on the Sky Island can provide at this stage.

Robert wrapped the shock he had gotten from Gan Fall tightly around the palm of his right hand with medical gauze, and then swung his fist and slammed it hard onto the deck.

He now possesses three times the strength of an ordinary person, and after striking repeatedly, he felt the impact shell in his hand getting quite hot.

After closing the cabin door where the wounded were being housed, the two priests over there were still jumping around and spewing trash talk.

Without the slightest hesitation, Robert forcefully touched the top of the jet shell with the arch of his foot, and the roller skates under his feet released tremendous energy, propelling him forward at an extremely high speed.

Robert activated the shoe for a split second, his entire body hovering in mid-air, delivering a perfect side kick straight to a priest's head.

The two priests' only method of attack was to use the shellfish embedded in their gloves: the Slash Shell, the Flame Shell, the Flame Shell, and the Impact Shell.

The difficulty in fighting them lies in the fact that they look exactly alike, making it hard to tell what kind of attack they will use next.

So Robert's tactic is—I don't care about this or that! I'm Zhao Gang!

The mental network development of Skypiea was very primitive, and it was incomparable to the Observation Haki that was standard for masters in Qinghai later on.

The Skypiea priests can only predict an opponent's movements when they focus their attention on that opponent. This was demonstrated when Luffy, Sanji, and Usopp defeated Shadley. Once someone tries to flank them from behind, their psychic abilities will be overwhelmed.

At this moment, Robert was not only flanking from behind, but the two fat men had no idea that there was someone hiding in the cabin.

With a flying kick, Robert sent one of the priests flying, and then used the shock shell in his hand to press down on the face of another priest.

Pressing his palm against the top of the seashell unleashed a tremendous force that dented the priest's head.

In the early stages of One Piece, no matter how fierce the battles were, no one died.

But the real world is not like that. With just this one impact, Robert had already received a notification from the data panel.

[Level 5 (626/1600)]

Robert's experience points increased by a whopping 420, more than double that of Rossio. The price was that Robert's right arm was almost completely numb, and the priest's face was smashed and he was no longer breathing.

But Robert didn't pause for even a moment, as if the battle had been rehearsed a thousand times.

He had barely regained his balance when he used his still-functioning left hand to pull out his flintlock pistol. He rushed over to the priest he had kicked down who was still struggling to get up, pressed the muzzle of the gun against his temple, and pulled the trigger.

The bullet pierced through the skull, drawing out a large amount of blood.

[Level 5 (1046/1600)]

After gaining another 400+ experience points, Robert finally felt the soreness in his right arm muscles, as if he had strained them.

Nami screamed. Robert took a deep breath: "I'm sorry, Miss Nami, this is the cruel reality of war. If I don't kill them all, we will all die, including Sanji and Usopp."

Nami took a few deep breaths and said, "I didn't mean to blame you, I was just startled. I only thought Mr. Robert was very easygoing, but I didn't expect him to be so..."

Robert stretched his arm, which had recovered somewhat, and said, "My right arm hurts terribly. It must have been strained by the recoil. I probably won't be able to put any weight on it for a while."

He was saying this to Blackbeard behind him: "My arm is injured now, you can't keep urging me to seize the ship, can you?"

Gan Fall said, "Just how much power did you put into Impact Valkyrie? That attack was basically the limit of Impact Valkyrie."

Robert thought to himself, "It was just a few punches with 16 points of strength at full power. It only shows that the priest was weak, not that the attack was strong."

It seems that the Impact Dial isn't anything very powerful. No wonder even Usopp stopped using the Sky Island Dial to fight after a short time.

Gan Fall quickly donned his armor, seemingly faking his previous serious injuries: "I have to go save my men. I don't even know what Enel did to them!"

After saying that, he rode off on his strange bird, leaving Nami so anxious she was about to curse.

"Miss Nami, there are only the two of us on the ship now, and I'm injured and can't exert any strength. Can you find a way to move the ship to the edge of the island?"

Nami nodded quickly. It wouldn't be right for her not to lend a hand at a time like this. After Nami left, Robert quickly went to the two priests and began to take off their gloves.

Even though Sky Island Shells are only considered early-game equipment, their current improvement to oneself is indeed enormous.

First, let's talk about the Impact Shell. It can unleash a strike equivalent to three or four of your own full-force punches, which is already a very strong technique.

As for the slashing shell, Robert hasn't tested it yet, but he imagines its power wouldn't be bad.

Not to mention Flame Shell. As the saying goes, even dogs won't eat the Flame-Flame Fruit. If you put out a Flame Shell, it's definitely a miniature Fire Fist.

Robert looked disgusted with the last glove, which was full of farts. He frowned, removed the flavor shell from it, and replaced it with another shock shell that he had in his hand.

Now Robert has two Impact Gloves, one Slash Glove, and one Flame Glove, which he can switch between at any time in his inventory, greatly enriching his combat versatility.

The 15 points of endurance not only enhance physical strength, but also multiply recovery ability. My right arm, which was in pain with the slightest movement just now, is only sore and numb.

Nami was bandaging Sanji and Usopp in the cabin, while Robert went around to the storeroom on the Going Merry.

Luffy and his crew are all easygoing and carefree. After spending the last two days with them, they weren't too wary of Robert. He had already taken advantage of the opportunity to help steer the ship to get a pretty good grasp of the Going Merry's structure.

The storeroom was mostly filled with useless things. After searching for a while, Robert found a Veyron broken in two.

The Waver is a unique single-person skateboard powered by a Wind Shell, but the one the Straw Hat crew found on the shipwreck is quite different. This Waver is powered by a more powerful, extinct Wind Shell.

In the story, the Veyron will be repaired by the Cornish father and daughter on Angel Island and then given to Nami to use.

However, due to Robert's intervention, the Straw Hat crew has not had any contact with this Sky Island resident, so there will naturally be no storyline where they help them repair the Waver.

Moreover, Robert had a reason to obtain the Wind-Blowing Shell, so he unceremoniously put it into his item space.

A strange whistle sounded, and Robert and Nami rushed onto the deck immediately.

A cloud bridge stretched straight out from the side in front of the Merry, and the cloud bridge was made of a small wooden boat.

Robert stared blankly: "My mouth is like it's blessed; I just said Cornish and Cornish appeared!"
