"I never expected you to be hiding so much."
Nico Robin wore a complicated expression. Facing Lina and her formidable lineup, she had lost all desire to fight.
This man was truly devious. She had understood the whole situation just now.
It wasn't that Blue Ogre Red Ogre had the ability to teleport. All these powerful figures were abilities belonging to the blond man in front of her.
She wasn't sure exactly what his power was, but Devil Fruits were all sorts of strange things. She guessed it let him create and control subordinates.
Robin lowered her hands, shrugged off her coat, and sat down in a chair. She looked at Lina warily and said:
"What are your goals? After I join you, what do you plan to use me for?
"Ancient weapons?"
Click.
"You don't have to do anything." Lina recalled the undead, lit a cigarette with his lighter, then put it back in the breast pocket of his blue shirt.
"Just keep searching for the Poneglyphs. We're not interested in the Ancient Weapons—Pluton, Poseidon, or Uranus."
Lina continued calmly, "There are four Road Poneglyphs among the Poneglyphs. Together, they point to the final island, Laugh Tale.
"Our captain wants to become the Pirate King, and you want to uncover the truth of history. We might as well travel together."
Lina's voice was even. He slowly stood and came to Robin's side, then casually sat on the table.
"How do you know all this?!"
Nico Robin's eyes widened in shock. She had spent years searching for Poneglyphs and had never heard of these Road Poneglyphs.
And the names of the Ancient Weapons—Pluton, Uranus, and Poseidon—were things ordinary people could never learn about. The World Government kept that information under tight wraps.
Lina merely smiled. How else would he know?
