Uchiha Tianqi Takes in the Devil Child, Nico Robin
On this open ground, the black-haired woman's movements also caught Tianqi's attention. Tianqi's eyesight was exceptionally sharp, and he immediately noticed the woman's unusual behavior.
"This is...!" Tianqi was also somewhat surprised after seeing the woman's face Pirate Crew. This woman was none other than Nico Robin, who would later join the Straw Hat Pirates.
"Leave that guy here and I won't make things difficult for you anymore!" Tianqi pointed to Robin, who was hiding in the crowd. Even if he let the War Axe Pirates go, the Navy wouldn't let them go. Since they were all going to die anyway, they might as well let the Navy have them.
Upon hearing this, Luo Mo glanced at the woman in the crowd. After a couple of seconds of hesitation, he immediately nodded in agreement. It was well worth it to get rid of these guys with just one crew member. If they had just asked for people earlier, he would have given them a hundred, let alone one.
Robin, who was singled out by Uchiha Tianqi, panicked. How could he pick her out from so many people? Could this guy have some kind of weird fetish? I'm really having a tough time, escaping one danger only to fall into another.
"I can give you my life, but you have to promise not to chase us again!" Luo Mo said, still somewhat worried.
"Hmph! You have no right to bargain. Do you think I'm some kind of petty person like you? I mean what I say!" Tianqi snorted coldly, not even glancing at Luo Mo. This kind of trash wasn't worth his time.
"Alright, you stay here, the rest of you come with me on the ship and leave!" Luo Mo pointed at Robin, then quickly left with the Celestial Dragons hostage.
When the Marine Rear Admiral and bodyguards accompanying Luo Mo saw that it was the captain of the Conqueror Pirates, they were all stunned. Could these small-time pirates be subordinates of Uchiha Tianqi, given his audacious behavior? However, judging from his reckless manner, it didn't seem likely.
"What should we do if we Conqueror Pirates?" the bodyguard asked the Marine Rear Admiral in a low voice.
"What do you mean, what should we do? The Conqueror Pirates are beyond our capabilities, and they don't seem to be on the same side. Let's focus on dealing with those small-time pirates and ignore the Conqueror Pirates!" The Rear Admiral was well aware of his own limitations. As one of the Four Emperors of the New World, Uchiha Tianqi beyond his ability to handle. He wasn't arrogant enough to think he could defeat this Emperor.
After giving Uchiha Tianqi a careful look, the bodyguard followed the major general and took a detour to leave the area in pursuit of the War Axe Pirates, not daring to approach Tianqi and his group at all.
Seeing this, Ryuma of Ryuda nodded slightly. These Marines were indeed very self-aware not to rush in and court death. As for the weaklings, the War Axe Pirates, they were destined for a bad end because they dared to kidnap Celestial Dragons. The Marines would definitely not let them go.
Now, besides Tianqi and his two companions, only Nico Robin remains. Hancock and Ryuma of Ryuda look at the woman who has been left behind, completely bewildered by their captain's intentions. Why would he suddenly single out this woman? Is he lusting after her beauty?
Nico Robin felt incredibly flustered as she was stared at by several people. She was not the same person she would be in the future. Although she had the power of Devil Fruit, she had not yet fully developed it. How could she not panic when facing a pirate Pirate Crew like the Conqueror Pirates, who were considered the overlords of the New World?
"Are you Nico Robin?" Although he was already pretty sure it was her, Tianqi still wanted to confirm, just in case he made a mistake and it got awkward.
Hearing Tianqi call out a name, Hancock and Ryuma of Ryuda looked puzzled. Did he call out a name? Was there a story between these two?
"Uh... it's me!" Although she didn't know how the other party knew her name, Robin didn't think of hiding it. Although countless people had betrayed her, and she had betrayed countless people, she had never offended the great pirate overlord of the New World.
"Well, in that case, come with me!" After confirming that it was Robin, Tianqi immediately wanted to take her on a voyage. As for why, there was no particular reason; it was just a spur-of-the-moment decision. Since they had met, there was no harm in giving her a ride.
Hearing that she was being asked to go with her, Robin knew she couldn't refuse. After all, she was someone's spoils of war, and what right did a spoils of war have to choose? However, after hesitating for a moment, she still asked, "Can you tell me why you want to take me away?"
"Nico Robin, the demon of Ohara, is an archaeologist and also a person with a bounty on her head by the World Government. A person like you who wanders among various Pirate Crew cannot be protected by any Pirate Crew other than the Conqueror Pirates. They can't even accept you. I really don't understand what reason you have not to come with me!" Tianqi directly stated Nico Robin's information.
"Ohara? You're from Ohara Island?" Upon hearing the name Ohara, Ryuma of Ryuda looked at the woman named Robin with surprise.
Years ago, when he was wandering the seas, he had reached the vicinity of Ohara Island. However, for some unknown reason, the island completely disappeared, and the people on the island also vanished with it. Many great pirates on the sea had heard of such mysterious events. Now, with a person from Ohara Island standing in front of him, even Ryuma of Ryuda was somewhat curious.
"Ohara Island? What's that?" The youngest, Hancock, had never heard of it and asked with a puzzled look.
Robin became saddened upon hearing about Ohara Island. Ohara Island was her hometown and a source of eternal pain in her heart. As for why Ohara Island disappeared, she only knew a little and wasn't entirely clear.
Seeing Robin's sorrowful expression, Tianqi didn't say anything more about Ohara. Instead, he said to Ryuma and the other man beside him, "Let's go find a place to stay and wait for Shanks and the others!"
"What about the captain?" Ryuma of Ryuda glanced at Nico Robin and asked casually.
Tianqi glanced at Nico Robin, who was standing there dumbfounded, and after thinking for a moment, said calmly, "I have all the truths you want to know here. If you want to know, come with me. If you don't want to know, you can leave now. I won't force you!"
After saying Tianqi led Hancock and Ryuma of Ryuda into the Sabaody Archipelago, and Nico Robin followed after a moment's hesitation. Whether she believed the truth or not, at least the Conqueror Pirates had the strength to protect her, and that was enough.
Seeing Nico Robin catch up, Tianqi smiled. He only wanted to help this poor woman, and he didn't care whether she would seize the opportunity. Now that he saw Robin take the chance, Tianqi was very pleased.
Tianqi his Byakugan's X-ray vision and began searching for people. How could he come to Sabaody Archipelago without looking for Rayleigh? Moreover, Tianqi believed that Shanks would also come to Sabaody Archipelago to look for Rayleigh, so it was better to go there and set up camp to wait for them.
With the power of the Byakugan, Tianqi quickly found Rayleigh and Shakky, who were living in seclusion on the Sabaody Archipelago.
"Hahaha... I was wondering why my eyelids kept twitching today, turns out it's you!" In front of a house, Rayleigh, with his snow-white hair, smiled as he looked at the four people walking towards him.
"It's been a long time, Senior Rayleigh!" Tianqi smiled as he looked at Rayleigh, who had helped him years ago.
"You haven't changed at all over the years, kid. It's really not easy to make a name for yourself as one of the Four Emperors. Come, come in and have a drink!" Rayleigh looked at Tianqi, whose appearance hadn't changed at all, and while he was surprised, he invited the four of them into the room behind him.
As soon as Tianqi and his three companions entered, they saw an older woman with a cigarette dangling from her lips, looking quite dashing.
"Old Lei, who did you bring back?" Shakky asked, smoking a cigarette and looking at Tianqi and his group of four with a puzzled expression. "Two women and two men, this combination is pretty good."
"Do you remember that promising young man I told you about before?"
"Oh, so he's the Uchiha Tianqi you mentioned who killed the Celestial Dragons and became one of the Four Emperors of the New World?"
"That's right, that's him! He's here today with his Conqueror Pirates crew!" Rayleigh nodded, also very pleased. He had long seen that Tianqi could make a name for himself, but he never expected that in just a few years, he would achieve the title of Emperor. This was truly astonishing. Although surprising, it wasn't entirely unexpected, as Tianqi's strength was undeniable, and it was normal for him to become one of the Four Emperors.
"So these are the Four Emperors of the New World?" Shakky walked over and looked Tianqi up and down, occasionally pinching Tianqi's arm, looking quite intrigued.
Tianqi's lips twitched at the sight. This Shakky was really too friendly. He started making moves on their first meeting. He and the shameless Rayleigh were a perfect match.
"The Four Emperors are all so young now. It's hard to believe I'm even this young. They're so accomplished!" Shakky Qi exclaimed in admiration. The young people these days are getting more and more amazing. They're already at the top of the pirate world in their early twenties.
"Don't be fooled by his appearance, he's not as young as you think!" Rayleigh shook his head, looking at Tianqi's current appearance. Based on his estimation, Tianqi's age was definitely more than he looked.
"That's a good point, but since we're already here, why don't you invite us to sit down?" Tianqi said casually.
"Oh, right, right, sit down, I'll go get you some good wine!" Shakky clapped his hands and arranged for everyone to sit down before running off to fetch the wine.
"That's just how Shakky is, don't take it too seriously. Just make yourself at home!" Rayleigh said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I won't be polite to you, no matter who you're polite to!" Tianqi sat down and immediately crossed his legs, looking like a thug.
"Hahaha..." Seeing Tianqi's appearance, Rayleigh also burst into laughter. To be honest, he was not the kind of person who followed the rules. He preferred the carefree Tianqi to the well-behaved Tianqi, as the latter was not only easier to talk to but also improved their relationship.
