So fast!

"Who are these marines talking to?" Usopp asked curiously, looking into the distance. "I don't see anyone else."

As he spoke, Usopp carefully observed his surroundings but did not see any suspicious targets.

This puzzled him. Could he be Devil Fruit User?

"I don't know."

Nico Robin shook her head at first, then frowned and said, "But judging from their expressions, they probably already knew we were coming here."

"If that's the case..."

Usopp's expression changed as if he had just realized something, and he said, "Is the Navy really coming for us this time?"

It seems their analysis when they saw the warships was correct; these naval forces might really be after them!

After hearing Usopp's words, Nico Robin didn't answer immediately. Instead, she lowered her head and thought carefully for a moment before saying, "It must be that Doflamingo has reached some kind of cooperation with the Navy."

"But as we just said, the Navy's main target is still Luffy's older brother, so the people who came to capture us in the Green Bit shouldn't be too Lihai."

After saying that, Nico Robin paused for a moment, then continued, "At least it won't be Admiral."

"That's good."

Upon hearing Nico Robin's explanation, Usopp first breathed a sigh of relief, then said with a hint of annoyance, "Even a Vice Admiral isn't someone we can handle!"

Hearing this, Nico Robin gave Usopp a strange look. Did this guy not realize his current strength?

However, considering Usopp's personality, Nico Robin wasn't surprised, since he'd always been like that.

After shaking her head helplessly, Nico Robin turned her gaze back to the marines in the distance and said, "Let's see how things go first."

Seeing that Nico Robin had already said so, Usopp stopped complaining, lest the enemy discover that they were there.

However, for safety's sake, he continued to observe his surroundings, fearing that he might be cornered there.

"Damn it, who is it?!"

The navy personnel, who were warily surveying their surroundings, shouted, "Come out!"

"Are you good people or bad people?" Leo asked.

"Of course he's a good person!"

The navy quickly replied, "We are the navy protecting civilians, we are very good people!"

"Then hand over your weapons to me."

"No!"

The navy refused without hesitation, saying, "We still have missions to carry out, so we cannot give you the weapons."

Although they didn't know who was speaking to them, they absolutely could not hand over their weapons!

Otherwise... they'll become lambs to the slaughter.

"I see!"

Another navy officer reacted and said, "You wouldn't happen to be an enemy, would you?"

The others realized what was going on: if they weren't enemies, why were they being asked to hand over their weapons?

Thinking of this, their eyes sharpened.

"Get out here, you bastard!"

As he spoke, the navy officer pulled the trigger.

"Bump!"

Leo's eyes turned cold as he watched the flock of birds flee at the sound of gunfire.

"Is this your answer?" Leo said. "I understand."

"Do it!"

The next moment, Leo and his friends vanished from their spot, taking one item after another from the Marines at incredible speed.

"Huh?"

One of the sailors noticed the change in his companion and exclaimed in alarm, "Where's your cloak?"

"Hey, my gun is gone too!"

"My hat!"

As time went on, these sailors wore less and less, until eventually they were left with only a pair of shorts.

"There's a monster!"

"Damn it, what kind of place is this?"

"Run!"

Having lost all their weapons, the navy sailed frantically into the distance, in utter panic.

"What happened?"

Usopp, staring at the backs of these people, exclaimed in disbelief, "Why have all the things on them disappeared?!"

"There must be something nearby," Nico Robin said, staring ahead. "It's just moving too fast to see clearly."

After saying that, Nicole Robin looked around carefully again, but still couldn't find anything strange.

Just then, some sounds came from the bushes in the distance.

"Now you know how powerful we are, you wicked humans!"

Hahaha~

As they were speaking, a Tontatta darted out of the bushes and ran off in the other direction at an incredible speed.

But it was this action that led Nicole Robin to discover him.

"Found it!"

Although she didn't know what the other party was, she decided to capture it first, hoping that... she might be able to obtain some useful information.

With that in mind, Nico Robin rushed out without hesitation and launched an attack.

"Flower Field in Mil Fleur!"

The next moment, numerous arms appeared in front, precisely grabbing the little guy who was running around everywhere.

"Got it!" Nicole Robin exclaimed in delight.

Upon hearing that Nico Robin had captured the other person, Usopp's face lit up with joy, and he quickly rushed to Nico Robin's side.

Where is it? Where is it?

"There..."

Nicole Robin seemed to have discovered something, and beads of sweat immediately appeared on her face.

Usopp, following Nico Robin's gaze, also froze.

"What... what is this?"

Why does the other person look only the size of a palm?

Wait... it's not even as big as the palm of my hand!

"Probably Tontatta?" Nico Robin asked uncertainly.

Such a small humanoid creature must be Tontatta.

As she pondered this, Nico Robin walked towards the other person.

Upon seeing Nico Robin approach, the Tontatta Kabu immediately showed a look of horror.

"Help! Help me!"

"Mr. Kabu!"

"Oh no! Mr. Kabu has been captured by the Giant Race!"

"What exactly is going on?"

Looking at the Tontatta being held tightly by Nico Robin, Usopp exclaimed in surprise, "Why are there Tontatta here?"

Despite having seen many amazing things, Usopp couldn't help but be a little surprised.

These are Tontatta!

"I don't know."

Nico Robin shook her head, then lowered her head and took Kabu in her hand, saying, "Were you the one who took those Navy things just now?"

Kabu didn't answer the question, but just looked at Nico Robin warily, clearly unwilling to speak.

Seeing that the other party did not answer, Nicole Robin was not angry. After all, the two did not know each other, so it was normal for them not to speak.

But that's okay, she's very patient.

Then, as if she had just remembered something, Nico Robin said, "Oh, right, Usopp, there's more than one Tontatta here."

"Ha?"

Usopp, who was still wondering what the Tontatta were all about, immediately bristled when he heard this.

Is there more than one guy who can steal everything from someone in the blink of an eye?

"Hey, what are we waiting for?!" Usopp jumped up and shouted, "Let's get out of here!"

This kind of grassy area is a natural hiding place for Tontatta!

Fighting here would be a huge disadvantage.

"That's true, then we..."

Before Nicole Robin could finish speaking, she noticed something flying towards them.

"Anesthetic Flower!"

"Bump!"

Several tranquilizer darts flew in front of the two men and exploded into smoke before they could react.

"What is this?!" Usopp exclaimed.

Nicole Robin, as if she had discovered something, exclaimed in surprise, "Oh no, this is numbing..."

Before she could finish speaking, her body went limp and she collapsed to the ground.

"Hey, are you alright, Luo...?"

Having said that, Usopp understood what had happened.

They were ambushed by the enemy using some kind of sedative.

'It's over...'

They never expected to be defeated by this group of Tontatta.

With this thought in mind, Usopp's consciousness faded into darkness.

Nicole Robin was still able to maintain consciousness, but her body was unable to move.

"Usopp..."

Ugh, my eyelids are so heavy, I'm about to fall asleep.

"Finally, he fell."

Leo approached Nico Robin and said, "She'll probably fall asleep soon."

"What should we do with these two?" Kabu asked.

"Since they've seen it, we'll just have to clean it up."

Listening to their conversation, Nicole Robin felt a sense of despair.

They may really never be able to go back.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Zoro and Perona, who were in town, had successfully found the thief who had stolen their belongings!

"Stop right there, you Fairies thief!" Zoro roared.

As he spoke, Zoro accelerated and charged towards his opponent, while Perona pulled Zoro up in mid-air, and they chased after each other together.

As time went by, the distance between the two sides grew closer and closer, which gave Zoro hope.

"They're about to arrest him..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw the other person disappear into a nearby alley, causing him to miss them again.

Perona, however, was unaffected. The moment Zoro disappeared into the alley, she released him and planned to turn the corner to catch him.

Before she could even stand still, she saw the thief who had stolen the knife disappear into the crowd ahead.

"Ha?"

"Again?"

Perona immediately became unhappy.

That bastard just used that same method to shake them off, and now he's doing it again?

Thinking this, Perona decisively raised her hand and said, "In that case, let me take them all down and see how you hide then!"

After saying that, Perona planned to use her Devil Fruit ability.

But before he could summon the ghost, Zoro rushed over and stopped him.

"Don't do anything rash," Zoro said. "Franky and the others haven't succeeded yet."

Exposing them now would be detrimental to them, so they cannot allow Perona to use her abilities.

Perona pouted slightly in dissatisfaction upon hearing this, but she didn't refute Zoro's words, since what he said was true.

"Then what do you suggest we do?"

"I..."

Before Zoro could finish speaking, he saw the thief who had been stealing.

"We've found him!"

Seeing the thief quickly climb onto the roof, Zoro's eyes lit up immediately, and without waiting for Perona's reaction, he gave chase.

"Hello!"

Perona was stunned as she watched Zoro leap onto the roof.

At least bring yourself with you!

Isn't this idiot afraid of getting lost?

Zoro didn't answer, he just kept charging forward.

Perona sighed helplessly upon seeing this, then quickly chased after Zoro along the street.

Zoro rushed to the rooftop in a few strides, shouting, "This time I'm going to catch you!"

After a roar, Zoro sped up and caught up with the fleeing thief after a short chase, grabbing Shusui in one swift motion.

"Give it to me!"

After retrieving the sword, Zoro said, "Alright, now let's..."

Before he could finish speaking, a small hand grabbed his collar and threw him off the roof.

Zoro:???

What grabbed him?

"Boom!!"

Zoro, who had crashed heavily to the ground, looked confused. What had just touched him?

With that thought in mind, Zoro slightly rose, intending to see what it was.

Before he could move, a package falling from mid-air hit him, knocking him to the ground again.

"Bump!"

Zoro:...

Zoro was speechless as he looked at the package that had bounced to the side.

This thief stole quite a lot of things; they were so heavy.

Just then, he heard another person's voice coming from inside him.

"Oh no, we have to escape quickly!" the Tontatta Vika cried anxiously, "Otherwise, we'll be discovered by humans..."

Before she could finish speaking, she noticed Zoro staring at her with a shocked expression.

Zoro:!!!

What is this?

Vika:...

They've been discovered.

Upon being discovered, Vika gave an awkward but polite smile and said, "Oh dear~"

"How rude of me, hehe~"

"I'm leaving right now..."

"Wait a moment!"

Zoro grabbed the little guy who was trying to escape, frowning as he asked, "What exactly are you?"

Fairies?

Wait a minute, doesn't this look a bit like Tontatta?

"I..."

Vika pursed her lips, then burst into tears.

"I'm so stupid!"

"I'm such a stupid and dumb idiot!"

"I knew one of them would mess up, and it just so happened!"

Staring at the wailing little one, Zoro subconsciously raised an eyebrow, then asked, "Is this the true form of Fairies?"

"Are you... a toy?"

"I'm not a toy," Vika said. "I am Vika of the Tontatta Tribe!"

"Please... please don't tell anyone you've seen me."

Please!

"I have absolutely no idea what you're talking about," Zoro said, his lips twitching.

What does it mean to prevent others from knowing or discovering her secrets?

"No, this isn't the time to talk about that," Vika said. "I have very important things to do!"

"Oh, then go ahead and do it."

"Um?"

Vika was stunned when she saw Zoro putting her on the ground.

This Giant Race... just let her go like that?

For a moment, Vika didn't know what to say.
