"The blueprints for Hades... I've destroyed them!"

Upon hearing Esbag's words, Rob Lucci let out a cold snort and said.

"We didn't waste five years lurking around you."

We know you're afraid of being alone.

As he spoke, Rob Lucci glanced at a Nico Robin poster on the wall of Espagnol's room and continued.

"You fear this woman's power, and worry that one day she will resurrect Hades in this world."

"So you always retained enough power to fight her back then."

“We’ve already investigated your identity and past, Esbag!”

"You can't fool us!"

"Hurry up and tell us where the Hades blueprints are, don't waste time."

Upon hearing this, Espagu breathed a sigh of relief, and instead appeared to have let go of everything, saying...

"Since you already know me so well."

"Then you should know that no matter how you ask, I won't tell you!"

"So stop wasting your time. If you want to kill me, then hurry up and do it!"

Esbagu looked calmly at the three people opposite him, already prepared to face death.

But to Esbagu's surprise, none of the three showed any intention of making a move.

What puzzled Espagu even more was that he saw Rob Lucci suddenly laugh.

Then Rob Lucci said.

"Kaku, take his pulse!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Kaku stepped forward and placed his hand on Esbagu's pulse.

Esbagu was becoming increasingly confused.

Then he heard Rob Lucci begin to speak.

"Espagu, actually we had a hypothesis about the Hades design a long time ago."

"We weren't entirely sure if this assumption was true."

"But when I saw how readily you sought death, I became even more certain."

"Now... just listen to me carefully!"

"You're keeping the Hades blueprints so you can use them against Nico Robin someday."

"So you will definitely ensure that this design will be passed down."

"But if you are determined to die, and this design is still in your possession, then it loses the possibility of being passed down."

"You can't be stupid enough not to have thought of that."

"That is to say..."

"Actually, you've already entrusted it to someone else, haven't you?"

Upon hearing this, Esbagu's heart was already racing, but he forced himself to remain calm.

Rob Lucci continued.

"Then let's continue with our assumptions!"

“For the past five years, we have been secretly observing everyone around you.”

"We've found that if there's anyone you can trust and entrust with your design drawings, it's only us five foremen."

“Of course, you haven’t contacted me or Kaku, so we can definitely rule you out.”

"The only ones left are Barry, Thaleston, and Biple Lulu."

At this point, Rob Lucci gestured to Kalifa, who nodded.

He walked to the door and opened it.

Barry and his two companions lay motionless at the doorway, covered in wounds.

"Barry!! Tellstone!! Bipley!"

Aisbag exclaimed in alarm, his face full of worry, but the other party did not react at all.

At this point, Rob Lucci continued.

"I'm sorry! We had already questioned and investigated the three of them before we contacted you."

"Through our various inquiries and tests, we discovered..."

"None of them knew anything about the blueprints for Hades!"

Upon hearing this, Espagu's expression became extremely serious, and the worry on his face grew stronger.

Rob Lucci then suddenly uttered a name.

·· ····Requesting flowers···· ·

"Kardi Flam!"

Upon hearing the name, Esbag's pupils dilated sharply, his heart stopped beating for a moment, and his expression showed obvious astonishment.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Rob Lucci smiled faintly and continued.

"According to the government's intelligence, the legendary shipbuilder Tom has two apprentices."

"One is you, and the other... is Kadi Fram, who the reports say died eight years ago!"

"Originally, there was no problem with this matter."

"But...you should still remember, right?"

Four years ago, a man suddenly came to Carrera and said he wanted to visit you.

"He introduced himself, and that name was... Kadi Fram!"

Upon hearing this, Espagu's heart was pounding faster and faster, and no matter how hard he tried to calm down, he couldn't control it.

Rob Lucci continued.

"That is to say, Tom's other apprentice is still alive."

"Moreover, he still lives in this city."

"However, he has now changed his name to Franky!!!"

When Rob Lucci uttered Franky's name, Espagu's heart pounded faster and faster, and cold sweat broke out uncontrollably on his face.

Rob Lucci continued.

"The fact that we can't find any background information about Franky further confirms that he is indeed Kadi Fram."

"Moreover, you two are from the same school."

"Give him the design drawings when no one is looking."

"This is the best choice."

At this point, Rob Lucci's gaze suddenly sharpened, and he looked at Espagu and said in a deep voice.

.. .... ....

"Although all of this is hypothetical and without any evidence."

"But your ever-increasing pulse tells me that this assumption... is true!!!"

At this point, Esbagu could no longer remain calm and roared angrily.

"You bastards, do you know how many people will die if this weapon is resurrected?"

"Everyone will fight for this weapon, risking their lives to get it."

Rob Lucci said coldly.

"It seems you don't trust the government, Aisbag!"

"Our government will definitely use this weapon to bring an end to the Great Pirate Era and transform it into a fighting force for justice!"

Esbag glanced at the three fallen Barry and his companions, and said angrily in a deep voice.

"Now that things have come to this, do you still dare to talk about justice?"

"It's because of your government's secret machinations that Mr. Tom..."

boom!

As Espagu was speaking, Rob Lucci kicked him in the face.

Then he said in a deep voice.

"Watch your mouth, Esbagu!"

Do you still think you're my boss?

At that moment, Kalifa spoke up from the side.

"Hurry up and go find Franky!"

"We must catch the last train back to Jusco before tonight."

"There isn't much time left."

Rob Lucci nodded upon hearing this and spoke to Esbagu.

"I'm sorry, Espagu!"

"We don't have time to play with you!"

"You can just die right here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Rob Lucci extended a finger, preparing to end Espagu's life with a finger gun.

boom!

Just then, a loud bang was heard.

The outer wall suddenly exploded.

A man wearing a straw hat burst through the wall and kicked Kaku, who was standing next to Espagu, flying.

Then, a deep, angry voice rang out.

"Finish your mission now and get back to Enies Lobby!"

"I'm about to burst out there and vent my anger!!!"

Luffy knew that these people wouldn't bring Robin back unless they completed their mission.

That way, he wouldn't be able to show Robin their determination, nor would he be able to dispel the fear in Robin's heart.

So after these people had found their second target, he rushed out.

When Luffy appeared, everyone present was visibly shocked.

They were completely unaware that someone was nearby.

"Straw...Straw Hat Boy!"

Aisbag exclaimed in surprise.

Luffy ignored the other party for the time being, his gaze fixed on Rob Lucci.

At this moment, Rob Lucci's eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

From the moment he learned that Luffy had appeared on the island, he became interested in this world-famous rookie.

He believed that with his true abilities, he could definitely defeat this celebrity who had been a constant source of controversy since his debut.

"Lucci! The mission is of utmost importance!"

Kalifa noticed the intense fighting spirit in Rob Lucci's eyes and offered a word of advice.

She was somewhat intimidated by Luffy's strength.

After all, the gap between her and Rob Lucci is too vast.
