Blue-Eyes White Dragon's Bounty Poster!

"Nicole Robin!"

Storm suddenly turned his head and looked at Robin.

Do you believe in God?

"Reporting, boss."

Robin was intimidated by the aura that Storm was unleashing at that moment, and answered honestly.

I don't believe in God.

If God truly exists in this world.

So why didn't the "gods" appear when she was living under someone else's roof and suffering all kinds of disdain?

Why didn't the "gods" appear when the navy massacred Ohara and bombarded the refugee ships?

Why didn't the "gods" appear when she was wandering the West Blue, abandoned and betrayed by all sorts of people?

Nico Robin doesn't believe in God!

"Very good, remember what you said today."

Storm nodded in satisfaction.

"I already have a complete idiot among my subordinates who's a believer in 'Nika,' so don't you dare follow in his footsteps."

"Boss, that 'idiot' you mentioned..."

Robin, recalling Edward Teach who had just been encountered and then mysteriously disappeared, asked cautiously.

"Could it be Mr. Edward?"

"Teach? No."

Storm shook his head and said simply.

"It's a 'Tyrant'."

Bartholomew the Bear?

Robin, who enjoys reading newspapers, immediately recalled the "Tyrant's" real name and general appearance.

That man with the really cute bear ears?

Is he a follower and worshipper of that so-called "God Nika"?

It's hard to imagine that a man with such a terrifying title could be a believer in God...

Thinking of this, Robin couldn't help but ask again.

"Boss, who is 'Nika'?"

"The Sun God who saves people from suffering, the savior ordained by heaven."

Storm used an extremely sarcastic tone to "praise" it.

"The moment he Awakening, the entire ocean called out his name— Nika!"

"Sound..."

Robin pondered Storm's words for a moment, then shook his head and commented sharply.

"That's kind of ridiculous."

"Excellent! You've captured the essence of 'Sun God Nika'."

Storm was about to applaud Robin's words—and in fact, he did just that.

"If someone can fight in front of the enemy while laughing maniacally in front of the corpse of their friend, then that person is Nika!"

Is this a deity?

Robin couldn't help but rub her arms. She briefly imagined the scene and immediately got goosebumps all over her body.

"Is this guy crazy?"

"Hahaha!"

Storm burst out laughing.

This was the first time Robin had ever seen this man smile so happily.

"That's right, Nika are all crazy."

Storm applauded Robin's speech again.

"And those who believe in Nika are all fools!"

Robin had a feeling that Storm's words were a bit too much.

Because the other party just mentioned that the "Tyrant" was a follower of Nika...

What?

Storm just said that the "Tyrant" is a complete idiot?

That's alright then.

"Forget it, let's not talk about that madman anymore. Where was I?"

Storm waved his hand, skipping over the topic of Sun God Nika.

"Yes, I remember now--"

"I wasn't originally planning to recruit you, Robin, but..."

If you are entrusted with a task, you should be loyal to it.

Storm recalled Robin's sharp comments about the Sun God Nika, so he took those words back and changed his tone.

"But what's done is done."

These words were spoken.

Robin was instantly speechless.

Why are you talking like she's unwanted...?

"Ahem, what I mean is..."

Storm pointed to the Ancient Poneglyph in front of him.

"Since this is a recruitment, a certain 'gift' is required."

Are you satisfied with this belated 'gift'?

"Is this... a gift?"

Robin looked at Storm in surprise.

Seeing the look of surprise on her face, the latter immediately realized what was going on.

"Do you think I brought you here so you could help me decipher the inscriptions on this Ancient Poneglyph?"

Although a little embarrassed, Robin nodded slightly.

That's exactly what she was thinking.

However, it now seems that Storm may possess even more ancient knowledge than she does!

Under such circumstances, why would the other party possibly want her to decipher Ancient Script?

Storm rolled his eyes as he watched Robin nod.

"You don't actually think I'm like Crocodile, a spineless guy who relies entirely on external forces, do you?"

Storm couldn't help but question it.

But in the next second, his expression changed.

"That's right! That's exactly who I am!"

[Demon Ring] in hand.

It almost filled an entire hand.

Storm simply couldn't bring himself to say, "My strength comes entirely from hard work."

Robin was speechless.

"Forehead..."

"However, as I just said..."

Storm looked at the Ancient Poneglyph in front of him.

"The text recorded on this Ancient Poneglyph is my 'recruitment gift' to you."

"I knew what was recorded on it even before you did."

Robin stared at Storm without saying a word.

If deciphering Ancient Script were really that easy, then --

"This records the exact location of the Ancient Weapon [Poseidon], well, that doesn't seem quite accurate."

"Storm said softly."

"It should be said that it's the 'approximate location'; [Poseidon] is on the Fish-Man Island beneath the Red Line Continent."

That's right! That's exactly it!

Robin was taken aback, her eyes suddenly becoming more eager as she impatiently pressed for an answer.

"Boss! You can read Ancient Script too!?"

Are there other archaeologists on the high seas who know the secrets of antiquity?

She... wasn't alone?

No, I don't understand.

Storm shook his head, dispelling Robin's fantasy.

"But I do know quite a few secrets."

Before Robin could respond, Storm suddenly pointed to the bottom of the Ancient Poneglyph.

"For example, that line of text."

Robin looked over at the sound.

She immediately noticed the Ancient Script on gold located to the side and below the Ancient Poneglyph.

She had completely missed these words!

Robin immediately began reading and translating the few lines of Ancient Script.

Storm spoke at the same time.

"I have come to this place."

"Take this article to the ends of the earth."

Gol D. Roger, the Pirate

Exactly the same!

Robin looked at Storm with considerable excitement.

"Boss! You said you don't know Ancient Script!"

"I really can't understand these Ancient Script."

Storm explained helplessly.

"I just happened to find out what they meant."

After Storm finished explaining, he looked at Robin, and clearly read this message on the archaeologist's face—

"Okay, go on, I'm listening."

Robin looked like an iron-faced judge who listened attentively to the prisoner's statement and then decisively sentenced him to death.

Can't you just listen to what I'm saying?

"I'm listening, I'm listening!"

"You... never mind."

Storm did not want to engage in further verbal sparring.

"In short, I brought you here because I thought this Ancient Poneglyph would suit your taste."

"By the standards of a 'gift,' its quality and significance should be sufficient."

"So, Nicole Robin, do you like this 'gift'?"

"Boss, I really like it."

So what should you call me now?

"Boss? Or... the Captain?"

"I just love talking to smart people!"

Storm clapped his hands and laughed.

"Miss Pirate, let's go enjoy the feast on the Sky Island!"

Before the Blue-Eyes White Dragon appeared.

Robin spoke very quickly.

"Captain, are you sure you don't need me to help you translate the message on this Ancient Poneglyph?"

"What do you want me to translate? Let me translate it for you."

With a casual wave of his hand, Storm sent the Blue-Eyes White Dragon soaring into the sky.

"The so-called Ancient Weapon is [Poseidon], the Mermaid Princess who appears only once every few hundred years on Fish-Man Island."

"The current Sea King's name is Shirahoshi, he's 10 years old, lives in the Hard Shell Tower of the Ryugu Kingdom on Fish-Man Island, and is unmarried... uh."

Storm's revelations came to an abrupt end.

Robin fell silent.

At that moment, she suddenly began to believe Storm's claim that he couldn't understand Ancient Script.

Because the information they were providing about [Poseidon] was so detailed it was outrageous!

Even the information recorded in Ancient Poneglyph is not as accurate as what Storm is saying now.

After an awkward silence.

Robin spoke in a low, somber tone.

"10 years old..."

"I did not mean that."

"Unmarried..."

"I'm sorry, I was too rash."

"10 years old..."

"What can I do to make you keep this a secret?"

"Make me a cute little one!"

"... Its name is Godzilla, but from now on, it'll be called Little Cutie!"

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon flew with Storm and Robin to the vicinity of the former temple ruins.

The Shandia warriors who had previously returned to Hidden Cloud Village had now brought all their possessions to the Skypiea.

Some people are building new homes;

Some people are clearing the temple ruins;

Some people are preparing food for the banquet.

All the Shandia people looked full of energy and worked with great enthusiasm.

"These are the Skypieans?"

"They are Shandia people. If you want to know more details, you can go and ask them directly."

Storm piloted the Blue-Eyes White Dragon as it descended.

"The Shandia people are now under my command, and they won't refuse to answer your questions."

"How did you do that, Captain?"

"Simply put, I killed the previous god who ruled the Sky Island."

Storm's arrival was like a spark thrown into a boiling oil pan.

The already lively atmosphere around the temple suddenly became even more chaotic.

The Shandia people, both warriors and civilians, looked at Storm with utmost respect and admiration.

Preparations for the banquet were accelerated even further.

At Storm's suggestion.

The venue for the banquet was changed from the original temple to the area near the Golden Bell in the Shandora Ruins.

Storm's move undoubtedly won over the hearts of the Shandia people even further.

After the descendants of the great warrior Calgara, and the current leader of the Shandia people, Vearth, led his people in ringing the Golden Bell.

The Sky Island Banquet has officially begun.

Thump--thump--thump--

A century later, the Golden Bell tolls once again.

From the Sky Island thousands of meters above the ground to Jaya Island in the sea, everyone can hear the loud and melodious Golden Bell.

The Shandia people returned to their homeland.

Storm and Robin joined the Shandia people in their lavish feast.

The noisy atmosphere continued until late at night.

The next day, early morning.

While Storm was still resting on the Sky Island.

The World Economic Journal's newspaper was delivered to every corner of the ocean by diligent News Coo.

Today's newspapers contain several "big news" stories that are sure to shock the ocean.

<Super "Admiral" -- White Dragon!>

The new Shichibukai ascended the throne!

The World Government is enraged! The King of Lizards is defeated!

Who will be the next "victim"...?

Following these compelling "big news" stories, the World Economic Journal generously included two reward notices.

The first one.

It's naturally the bounty on the Shichibukai, [White Dragon]!

Upon receiving his first bounty, he was immediately appointed as Shichibukai.

The legendary experiences of the White Dragon are almost identical to those of the Empress of Kuja seven years ago.

Next to the White Dragon's bounty poster, there was another new bounty poster attached.

That's the real "White Dragon's" bounty poster!
