Sailing: His comprehension is against the sky, and he comprehends the Eight Gates at the beginning.

Rob Lucci stared intently at Luffy, frowning, and spoke in a deep voice, word by word.

"I don't know why you didn't stop us, but..."

"You said you wanted to come to Enies Lobby, right?"

"I'll be there... waiting for you!!!" (Mountain)

Chapter 106 Has the Straw Hat Boy Gone Mad? Arrival at Enies Lobby! (Thanks to 151fxhtx for the monthly pass)

After leaving a challenge for Luffy, Rob Lucci left with Kaku and Kalifa.

At this moment, Espagu couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Straw Hat Kid, what are you doing here?"

Upon hearing this, Luffy told Espagnol about Robin's departure.

Then he continued.

“I learned about their plans from Bruno.”

"That's why I came here to find you."

After hearing Luffy's explanation, Espagu understood and looked surprised, muttering to himself.

"I never imagined that Nico Robin would choose to leave you in order to protect you from harm."

"So I've been misunderstanding this woman all along?!"

Because of reports from the World Government, Espagu always believed that Robin was a demon child who wanted to revive the ancient weapon Pluton.

But after hearing Luffy's explanation, he immediately realized that those reports about Nico Robin were definitely fabricated by the government.

At that moment, his impression of Robin and the Straw Hat crew changed.

Based on his interactions with them, the Straw Hat crew wasn't the ruthless villains portrayed in the news.

On the contrary, he felt that the Straw Hat Pirates were different from other pirates, and that they did things that were even better than those of the world's government.

Espagu suddenly looked at Luffy and asked.

"So you want them to finish their mission quickly, then go to Enies Lobby to rescue Nico Robin and win her back, right?"

Luffy nodded and said.

"That's right!"

Seeing Luffy nod in confirmation, Esbag's expression immediately turned serious, and he said in a very solemn tone.

"Straw Hat Boy, do you know what Enies Lobby is?"

"That is a court directly under the World Government, with a total of more than 1 resident naval personnel and government officials."

"Although Rob Lucci's CP9 organization is a secret force, I've heard about it."

"I heard that this organization is the secret assassination unit of the world's government '277,' and each member is incredibly powerful."

"With so many powerful enemies gathered together, it's impossible for your Straw Hat crew to go there and bring Nico Robin back!"

Luffy remained calm upon hearing this and said nothing more.

"They're just a bunch of small fry!"

"They're not our real enemies yet!"

"That damn CP9 commander Spandam has a golden Den Den Mushi that can activate a Buster Call."

"This golden Den Den Mushi can summon ten warships led by five Vice Admirals from the Navy Headquarters."

"Each warship will have a force of one thousand elite naval soldiers, including captains and lieutenant commanders from the Navy Headquarters."

"These are our real adversaries."

Upon hearing Luffy's words, Espagu's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets in shock.

His face was covered in cold sweat, and he said in utter astonishment.

"Straw Hat Kid, are you crazy?"

"You know the enemy is so powerful, yet you still want to lead your crew to their deaths?"

Luffy looked at Esbag, his expression resolute, and spoke in a deep voice, enunciating each word clearly.

"I will lead my crew and slaughter them!"

"Make Enies Lobby disappear from the map!"

"I will use this to show everyone what happens to those who try to target me!!!"

Upon hearing Luffy's words, Espagu broke out in a cold sweat.

He stared intently at Luffy, and in the other's eyes, he saw boundless confidence.

He had never seen such strong confidence and aura in anyone before.

Today's meeting instilled in him a deep respect for Luffy from the bottom of his heart.

"call..."

"I see!"

Espagu suddenly let out a long breath, looking as if he had made up his mind.

Then, he continued.

"The last government train to Judicial Island departs at 7 p.m.

"After that, the sea train will stop running."

"And at that time, the tsunami [Akula Ragna] will also arrive."

"Ordinary ships can't reach Enies Lobby!"

At this point, Espagu looked at Luffy and spoke again.

"If you want to go to Enies Lobby and bring Nicole Robin back."

"Come to the warehouse behind the waste treatment plant during that time!"

"I will start another sea train for you there!"

Upon hearing Espagu's words, Luffy immediately thanked Espagu.

"Thank you!"

He knew all along that they would be unable to set sail when the tsunami struck.

So this is one of the reasons why Luffy came here to find Esbag; he didn't expect Esbag to bring it up first.

That way, he wouldn't have to ask again.

Just then, Espagu's expression suddenly became very hesitant, as if he wanted to speak but couldn't get the words out.

Upon seeing this, Luffy asked.

"Is there anything else you can do?"

After hearing this, Espagu struggled for a while before looking at Luffy and saying.

"Although Lucci and the others have gone to find Franky, that guy definitely won't say a word."

"Before they find out the whereabouts of the Hades blueprints, they should take Franky to Enies Lobby as well."

"so..."

At this point, Espagu changed to a pleading tone.

"If you have the chance, could you bring Franky back as well?"

Upon hearing that Espagu was talking about this, Luffy smiled slightly and said...

"I plan to have Franky as my shipwright, so I'll definitely bring him back with me!"

Aisbag was taken aback for a moment upon hearing this.

He hadn't expected Luffy to have this plan.

But the thought that someone would be willing to take in Franky, especially a pirate crew like the Straw Hat Pirates who seemed decent, made Espagu feel relieved.

He knew perfectly well why Franky stayed on the island.

But he could only watch helplessly as Franky refused to forgive him.

If Luffy were to take him away now, it would allow Franky to move on from that painful memory and start a new life.

Thinking of all this, Espagu said something very sincerely to Luffy.

"Thanks!

After making his promise to Asbugu, Luffy left and returned to the dock where the Straw Hat crew was located.

The shipyard is currently closed due to the impending tsunami.

Only the Straw Hat crew remained, gathered around the proverbs inside, making their final preparations.

Luffy told the others about his promise to Asbugu.

After that, all they had to do was wait for that moment to arrive.

...

Around 6:30 in the evening.

Luffy and his crew had already made all the preparations and arrived at the warehouse that Espagu had mentioned.

Inside the warehouse, there is a sea train with a rocket-shaped nose.

"Oh! You've come!"

The speaker was Kokoro, whom Luffy and his crew first encountered at the platform.

Seeing Luffy and the others, Zimoni jumped up and down and shouted.

"There are pirate brothers and sisters with lots of gold!"

Upon seeing these two people appear here, the Straw Hat crew couldn't help but ask questions.

"Grandma Kokoro! Zimoni! Why are you here?"

Kokoro took a sip of his drink and laughed.

“The tsunami is coming soon. If we stay on that small platform, we will be submerged by the tsunami, so we came back to Water Seven.”

"besides..."

“I have already heard about your situation from Esbagu.”

"You guys are really brave!"

"They even dared to trespass into places like Enies Lobby!"

“I admire you all, so I decided to come and drive this sea train for you.”

"Mmm, hahaha..."

Luffy thanked Kokoro.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Grandma Kokoro!"

Kokoro burst into laughter again upon hearing this.

"You're quite polite, kid!"

"Mmm, hahaha..."

After that, Luffy and the others continued to wait inside.

Around 6:50.

Sanji called.

After Luffy answered the call, Sanji's voice came through very quickly.

"Luffy, I see Robin."

"She boarded the last train with those government officials."
