The World Government Doesn't Care About Ordinary People's Lives

Realizing he had said the wrong thing, Luo quickly changed the subject.

"Straw Hat Leader, these are the children you were talking about, right?" Luo said, glancing at the children who were still fast asleep.

"Yes."

Luffy nodded and said, "I want to save them."

"Save them...?"

Luo stared at the children for a moment, and the words Caesar had once told him came to mind.

After a moment of silence, Luo said, "I advise you not to get involved in this troublesome matter."

"Their bodies..."

"We know!"

Chopper raised his head, interrupting Law, and said, "I've investigated their bodies and I know exactly why they became like this."

"That's precisely why we want to send them home!"

"Don't you think these children who have been separated from their parents since they were young are pitiful?"

Luo paused for a moment upon hearing this. A child who has been separated from his parents since childhood...

This kind of thing happens all the time on this sea.

Can they be saved?

Chopper ignored Law's reaction and focused intently on the children, saying, "I know it's difficult; after all, it takes time to break free from the drugs' control, but... even so, I will save them!"

He couldn't abandon these helpless children.

Usopp sighed and said, "Who would have thought that such a terrifying experiment would exist in this world?"

"They can actually grow an ordinary child this big..."

Usopp glanced at the Giantification children and sighed again.

What a poor little guy.

"The human Giantification is a program the World Government has been researching for hundreds of years," Law said expressionlessly. "You just don't know it."

Having learned a great deal about the World Government, World Government knew exactly how disgusting it was.

"The World Government?" Nico Robin frowned. "Why would they do this?!"

"For the soldiers."

Law said, "If we could create a large number of Titan soldiers at will, then the World Government would be invincible."

"Just because of this, they're going to attack innocent children?!" Merry exclaimed angrily. "The World Government is utterly despicable!"

According to Luo, this experiment has been going on for hundreds of years.

So... how many children would have perished over these hundreds of years?

Thinking about this made Merry even angrier.

That despicable World Government!

Luo naturally understood why Merry was angry, but that's the reality of this world, isn't it?

"The Giant Clan are indeed very powerful," Nico Robin said with a grim face. "You should have experienced this yourself from these Giantification children."

"Adult Giant Clan who join the Navy... can almost all become Vice Admiral!!"

Upon hearing this, Usopp and the others' pupils immediately contracted.

Can you become Vice Admiral by joining the navy?

Doesn't that mean every adult Giant Clan possesses the strength of Vice Admiral admiral?!

Isn't this a bit too much?!

"No wonder the World Government is interested in Giantification humans," Usopp said, swallowing hard. "This combat power is terrifying."

If that were truly possible... wouldn't the World Government possess a large number of fighters like Dorry and Brogy?

That's terrifying!

As if recalling a certain scene, Usopp subconsciously shuddered.

"Nothing's easy," Luo said, shaking his head.

If it were that easy, the World Government would have succeeded long ago.

After all... this experiment has been going on for hundreds of years!

Upon hearing this, Merry pursed her lips. If it hadn't succeeded after hundreds of years, why bother...?

As if sensing Merry's thoughts, Luo said calmly, "The World Government doesn't care about the lives of ordinary people."

This can be seen from his destroyed country.

To those high and mighty entities like the World Government, ordinary people are no different from insects.

Merry fell silent, unsure of what to say.

He just looked a little sad.

Seeing this, Perona hugged Merry with a pang of sympathy, then looked up at Law and said, "By the way, I remember you just said that this experiment was being conducted by the World Government, right?"

"Yes."

"So this Caesar is affiliated with the World Government?"

"No, that's not true."

Law shook his head and said, "I'm certain of that Caesar isn't a member of the World Government."

Although it's unclear why Caesar works for Doflamingo, since he belongs to the Dark World, he can't possibly be a member of the World Government.

After all... this guy is a wanted criminal!

"Then why did he do this kind of experiment?" Nami asked, frowning.

"Perhaps it's to complete the experiment before Vegapunk and the World Government," Law said.

He knew that Caesar was creating Artificial Devil Fruit for Doflamingo, but he didn't understand why the other party was conducting experiments to Giantification.

"Just because of that?"

Nami's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

Just because you want to finish the experiment before others, you're willing to harm so many children?

Isn't that guy a total jerk?!

"I already said it was 'maybe,'" Luo said, "But the possibility is very high."

"After all... this guy is a rather eccentric scientist."

Although he didn't stay there for long, he quickly came to understand what kind of person Caesar was.

Besides, this guy always talks about surpassing Vegapunk, so there's a high chance that the other party is conducting experiments for that reason.

Nami fell silent. This bastard named Caesar really is...

"Do you really want to save them?" Law glanced at the Straw Hat Pirates and said, "They're just a bunch of brats of unknown origin."

"Yes, we need to save them!"

Nami nodded without hesitation and said, "Although I don't know these children at all, they cried and begged us for help, so... I have to save them!"

After saying that, Nami walked step by step toward the children, her eyes filled with heartache.

"These children were all tricked into coming here by that bastard scientist," Perona added. "They themselves sensed something was wrong, but they couldn't leave..."

In the end, Perona let out a deep sigh.

The terrible poison was certainly part of the reason, but more importantly, no one could take them away!

"These children are so pitiful." Nami reached out and rubbed Mocha's cheek, saying, "So... I won't leave this island until I'm sure they're safe."

"So you're planning to stay here alone?" Luo asked, frowning.

"Of course not," Luffy said without hesitation. "I would never abandon my crew."

"Since Nami and the others want to do this, I'll do it too. So I plan to heal them and then send them back."

"Oh, right, and Sanji too. He's planning to help the samurai regain his body and restore him to his original form!"

After saying that, Luffy paused for a moment, then grinned as if he had thought of something and said, "You're our ally now, so you should help us out."

Luo:???

Law stared at Luffy with a puzzled look on his face. Did this guy have some kind of misunderstanding about the word "alliance"?

As if understanding Law's thoughts, Usopp shook his head helplessly and said, "Tra-man, it seems you still don't quite understand."

"What's the meaning?"

"You think of an alliance as a relationship of cooperation solely to achieve a common goal, right?"

"Of course," Luo replied without hesitation.

Isn't this how alliances between pirates always work?

What's the problem?

"But Luffy's idea of an alliance is quite different from yours," Usopp said.

"Not quite... the same?"

Hehe~

Upon hearing Luffy, Luffy grinned and said, "It's probably something like friends."

"Hey~"

Did you hear that?

Usopp looked at Law seriously and said, "If you think you can take control, you're being naive!"

"This guy is so inflexible, he doesn't know how to adapt at all..."

Usopp described Luffy's personality traits one by one, making Law's scalp tingle. What kind of person had he chosen as an ally?!

ah?

"Now you know," Usopp said, "If we're talking about doing things his own way, this guy has already reached the level of Four Emperors!"

"That's right, exactly." Luffy nodded in agreement.

As he spoke, Luffy picked his nose, his expression gradually becoming one of enjoyment.

Then, he flicked his booger onto Chopper.

Seeing this, Luo paused for a moment, then said, "But your companion's request has nothing to do with the alliance..."

"Hello!"

Chopper opened his shark mouth and roared, "You bastard, you even flicked your booger at me!"

"Haha~"

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."

Seeing Luffy scratching his head and looking embarrassed, Chopper said unhappily, "I can't dodge right now, you bastard!"

"Sorry, sorry, I understand."

"Snort."

Luo:...

Luo, who was being ignored, was covered in sweat, and at that moment, the same thought he had before came to mind again.

He started to regret it...

However, since things had come to this point, he couldn't say anything more, as he still needed the other party's cooperation to retrieve the heart.

Thinking of this, Luo said somewhat unhappily, "Fine, I understand. I'll handle this for you."

"However, I'm only responsible for investigating the drugs given to the brat; the samurai side is your responsibility."

"Who is the Ship's Doctor? Come with me."

"I took him to Caesar's laboratory to look for information on the drug."

It would be even better if we could find an antidote, which would solve the problem immediately.

"Ah, it's me~" Chopper said, lying on the ground.

Luo:???

Law looked at Chopper with a puzzled expression. Why was the person lying on the ground the Ship's Doctor?

No way, are you kidding me!

After a moment of silence, Luo said, "You're joking, right?"

"No," Usopp said. "Chopper is indeed the Straw Hat Pirates Ship's Doctor."

"But you don't need to worry about him being unable to move, I have a solution!"

After saying that, Usopp took out some rope from his backpack, then picked Chopper up from the ground and tied him to Chopper's head with the rope.

"Okay, that works perfectly~" Usopp nodded in satisfaction.

Luo:...

Feeling the weight on his head, Luo Ren felt numb.

Are you kidding me, you bastard!

Why would they tie that raccoon dog to his head?!

At this moment, the aloof Luo was completely stunned.

"Sorry, Tra-man," Chopper said, "I can't move right now, so I'll have to ask you to take me with you."

Upon hearing this, Luffy and his crew immediately stopped.

Hahahaha.

"Don't let it fall off, Tra-man!!"

"Sorry, but it's really funny... hahaha!"

"So cute, Tra-man, hahaha."

The Straw Hat Pirates ' whispers echoed in Law's ears, making his face twitch.

So, what exactly is going on with the Straw Hat Pirates?

Are they really pirates?

At this moment, Luo even began to doubt himself.

He's recruiting these people as allies... is he out of his mind?

After a long silence, Law took Chopper off his head without saying a word, and then wrapped the rope around his scabbard.

This way, the other party won't be sitting on top of you.

"You... you're not angry, are you?" Chopper asked.

This time, Law didn't say anything, but simply stiffly tied Chopper to the scabbard.

After doing this, he shouldered the scabbard so he could carry Chopper on his back.

Chopper:...

She's definitely angry.

Luo was indeed a little annoyed, but the thought that the other party was willing to hand over a partner who couldn't move made him feel better.

After all... the other party genuinely believed him!

"Just as we received the intelligence before," Luo said expressionlessly, "Caesar sent those two men to kill you and take back the brat."

"His attacks will not stop until he achieves his goal."

"What a despicable guy," Merry said unhappily. "Not only does he want to use us for experiments, but he also wants to kill us all..."

That guy named Caesar is absolutely despicable!

"They want to kill you for more than just experiments," Law said. "He's a wanted criminal with a bounty of 300 million Beli, and also an evil scientist hunted by the World Government."

"Once his hiding place is exposed, his death is imminent."

"Is this his reason for wanting to kill us?" Nico Robin said. "Is he afraid we'll tell everyone what happened here?"

Now he understood why the other person had been so persistent; it wasn't just because...

"Yes," Luo nodded and said, "So he will absolutely not give up until he kills you all."

After saying that, Roh paused for a moment, then continued, "By the way, he's a Logia Gas-Gas Devil Fruit User, so anyone who doesn't Haki absolutely must not get close to him!"

"This guy is no ordinary scientist!"

Anyone who lacks Haki presence has no chance against that guy, so you absolutely must not appear in front of him.

"Is it Haki...?"

Luffy glanced at his crew and said, "We have quite a few people here who Haki."

Although he was the only one here who could freely use his Haki, Xi Yan and his group had three Haki individuals who could use it.

As for Nami?

Unstable Haki doesn't count.

"That's good." Luo nodded, then turned and walked out, saying, "I'll head back to the research institute first."

"What's the plan?" Nami asked.

"We said it when we came," Perona said, "We'll work together to capture that guy named Caesar."

"And then?" Franky asked. "What did you do after you captured him?"

"You're not doing this for the money, are you?" Usopp said.

If that's the case, then it doesn't seem to make much sense.

After all... the Straw Hat Pirates are definitely not short of money right now.

"Of course it's not for the money," Luo said calmly. "It's for the chaos!"

"Confusion?"

The Straw Hat Pirates exchanged glances, clearly not understanding what Law meant.

"The plan hasn't succeeded yet, so there's no point in discussing it now," Luo said. "In short, focus on capturing Caesar. Once we have that guy, I'll tell you the whole plan."

"But... from the moment we successfully capture that guy, things will naturally change drastically, and there will be no turning back then."

"If you want to back out, now's the time," Law said, staring intently into Luffy's eyes. "After this, there won't be a chance to back out."

Upon hearing this, Luffy smiled and said, "It's alright, we'll ally with you!"

"Okay, I understand."

After receiving a positive reply, Luo was relieved and nodded, saying, "Then... I agree to your request!"

"Try to persuade your other partners."

After saying that, Law took Chopper and turned to leave.

As for whether the Straw Hat Leader can persuade Zoro and his crew...

This is their business; he doesn't need to worry about it.

"Okay, I understand." Luffy nodded and said, "See you later."

"Profound."
