A Tough Guy Has His Schemes Too

"Fran Landu!"

Inhel quickly approached Franky and whispered in his ear, "We've already notified our comrades inside to open the Great Gate. Now we just need to wait for the right moment."

After saying that, Inhel paused for a moment, then continued, "You'd better be able to hold off Senor Pink."

"Well done!"

Franky grinned; these Tontatta were really reliable.

Franky then looked around at the ground, trying to find Senor Pink, but he couldn't find him.

Seeing this, Franky continued, "I understand. I'll find a way to stall this guy."

Inhel nodded, then quickly jumped off Franky.

"Hello!"

Franky called out, "Swimming guy, aren't you coming out yet?"

"If you don't come out soon, I'm going to attack the Factory."

As he spoke, Franky turned to face the Great Gate and raised his hand in a gesture as if to attack.

Seeing this, Senor Pink immediately rushed out from below, grabbed Franky's legs, and slammed him to the ground.

"Bump!"

Ah~

"Senor Pink really showed no mercy!" the woman beside him exclaimed excitedly.

Franky glanced at the women with some annoyance. Why were these girls so noisy?

Then, Franky looked down at the leg he was holding, and scoffed, "Is that all?"

"An attack of this magnitude can't hurt me."

As a Cyborg, this level of impact posed no threat to him; at most, it would only cause him some pain.

But there's still a short way to injure him.

"What a tough bastard," Senor Pink said.

"Hehe, we're in the same boat."

After he finished speaking, Franky's ears twitched, clearly indicating that he had heard something.

'This is...'

If I'm not mistaken, that's the sound of the Tontatta opening the doors inside the Factory.

It seems we need to lure this guy in Sunglasses away first, otherwise the Tontatta might get hurt.

Thinking of this, Franky said, "Hey, swimmer, let me say something unrelated."

"Um?"

What are you trying to say?

Senor Pink looked at Franky with a questioning gaze; was this guy planning to beg for mercy?

If that's really the case, he will look down on the other person.

"I just spotted an elderly woman who is frail and has difficulty moving around in that alley on the right."

As he spoke, Franky revealed his small mechanical hand and pointed to the street in the distance.

Senor Pink paused for a moment upon hearing this, clearly deep in thought.

Then he said, "Really? That's truly awful."

With that, Senor Pink released his grip on Franky's hand and calmly stood up from the ground.

"Senor Pink?"

The women looked at Senor Pink with confusion, not understanding why he had suddenly given up his attack.

"I just remembered I have some personal business to attend to," Senor Pink said casually. "I'll take care of it first, I'll be right back."

After saying that, Senor Pink plunged into the ground and quickly swam in the direction Franky had just pointed.

The women were startled at the sight and quickly followed, afraid of being left behind.

"Wait for us!"

"Hmph, done."

Franky's lips curled up slightly; it seemed this guy in Sunglasses was easier to handle than he had imagined.

Then, Franky focused his gaze on the front Great Gate, his eyes gradually hardening.

"Let me lend you a hand."

With that, Franky strode over.

Meanwhile, inside the Great Gate, the warriors of the Tontatta Tribe were working hard to turn the Great Gate, trying to open the heavy Great Gate and reunite with their comrades.

"Give it your all!" Leo shouted. "Let our companions in quickly!"

"Profound!"

Upon hearing this, the others shouted something and then began to work even harder.

"Stop right there, Little One!" The factory manager, who had just arrived, looked sharply at the group of Tontatta and said, "Don't get too cocky!"

"With me here today, none of you will escape!"

As she spoke, she gestured to the vacuum cleaner in her hand.

"Oh no..."

Jeo looked at the factory manager with a grim expression and said, "The factory manager is here."

With this guy around, can they really open the Great Gate?

Hateful!

"From the very beginning, you were slaves to manufacturing SMILEs," the factory manager sneered. "Even if you recognize reality now, what good will it do?"

"Do you really think you can resist us?!"

"Ah!"

After saying that, the factory manager brandished the vacuum cleaner in his hand and sent the Tontatta flying to the side in two swift movements.

This force is far beyond what those small fry could ever match.

"Look at the difference between us," the factory manager said coldly. "With me here, you won't be leaving this place!"

As he spoke, the factory manager turned on the vacuum cleaner in his hand and began to vacuum the Tontatta.

The next moment, a powerful suction came from the vacuum cleaner's inlet, sucking in some of the Tontatta in front of it.

"Come in, all of you!"

"Everyone be careful!"

Having witnessed everything, Jeo anxiously cried out, "Don't get sucked into her vacuum cleaner!"

That's true, but faced with such weapons, these Tontatta had no ability to resist, and couldn't even escape.

After all... this weapon was specifically designed to deal with them.

"Everyone, get away from her!" Leo shouted. "She's trying to trap us inside. Don't let her succeed!"

"Profound."

Upon hearing this, the other Tontatta immediately scattered and fled into the distance, intending to get away from this guy before returning to open the door.

They knew very well that once they were caught, they would lose all chance to open the door, so they had to escape.

Unfortunately, the vacuum cleaner in the factory manager's hands was too powerful; it could catch many of the Tontatta in one go, causing Tontatta great suffering.

"We can't escape!"

"Quick, open the Great Gate!" Leo exclaimed excitedly.

If this continues, the factory manager will catch them all and put them in the vacuum cleaner, and then no one will be able to open the Great Gate.

So... why not take a gamble now!

The Tontatta, understanding what Leo meant, immediately rushed over like madmen, turning the mechanisms on the Great Gate with all their might, intending to open Great Gate.

With the efforts of the Tontatta, the switch was slowly turning.

"You won't succeed!"

Seeing through the Tontatta's intentions, the factory manager immediately raised the vacuum cleaner and aimed it at them, shouting, "Watch me turn up the suction! Come here, all of you!"

"Buzz~"

The next moment, an even more terrifying suction force came, sucking in a large number of Tontatta, leaving only Leo and a few others struggling to hold on.

"Still not giving up?" the factory manager said impatiently. "Just give up already!"

"No way!"

Jeo shouted, "You absolutely must open the Great Gate!"

"Don't... don't underestimate the Tontatta Tribe!"

"Ah!"

Jeo and Leo roared simultaneously, using all their strength to turn the mechanism in front of them, finally managing to turn it to a point where it could be barely opened.

Just then, Franky arrived at the Great Gate and grabbed the crack in Great Gate.

"Open it!"

With his immense strength, Franky forcefully pried open the Great Gate.

"Bump!"

"Um?"

Looking at this pervert in his underwear, the factory manager was immediately filled with questions. Where did this weirdo come from?

Then, as if she had thought of something, she frowned.

'If I remember correctly, this guy is from the Straw Hat Pirates...'

What bad luck!

"Well done!"

Franky looked at the Tontatta, grinned, and said, "Leave the rest to me."

Without that Great Gate blocking his view, he could destroy this damned Factory with a single blow!

"It's... it's a robot!"

The Tontatta looked at Franky excitedly and shouted, "The robots have come to save us!"

"That's so cool!"

As they spoke, the Tontatta charged toward Franky, their expressions growing increasingly excited.

"I hope everyone is safe and sound."

Inhel and the others emerged from Franky's clothes, laughing, they said, "We've come to rescue you!"

" In Inhel!"

"Vika!"

"Bian!"

Seeing those familiar figures one after another, Leo and the others were so excited that tears welled up in their eyes.

"Great, we've finally met again!"

As they spoke, the Tontatta embraced each other, tears streaming down their faces.

Having understood what had happened before, they cherished this moment all the more.

Franky, who had witnessed everything, cried out, "I'm so glad you were saved!"

This moment is so touching, you bastard!

How could it be repaired!

"Thank you, robot human." Leo looked up at Franky and said, "If it weren't for you, we wouldn't have been able to open this Great Gate."

Although they managed to get the Great Gate to a point where it could barely be opened at the last minute, they didn't actually open it all the way, so they were still very grateful to Franky.

"This person isn't a robot," Inhel said with a smile. "He's a great human from our benefactor race, Fran Landu."

"Fran Landu?"

Leo paused for a moment, then looked at him with disbelief and said, "Is... is he a descendant of Noland?"

"Yes!"

"Wow!"

"They are descendants of heroes!"

These people, already excited because Franky was a Tontatta robot, became even more agitated.

No wonder the other party was willing to come and save them; it turns out they were the descendants of their benefactor!

"What about Princess Mansherry?" Vika asked. "How is the princess?"

"We don't know where the princess is either."

Jeo shook his head and said, "But now Mao Ye is looking for Princess Mansherry; perhaps he's made some discoveries there."

"I see."

Vika frowned, hoping that Mao Ye could find Princess Mansherry.

"What is that princess like?" Franky asked curiously.

He was genuinely curious about what the princess looked like.

"Ah, the princess..."

Before Leo could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the factory manager behind him.

"Are you treating me like I don't exist?" the factory manager roared. "You've been ignoring me since just now... Are you looking for death?!"

"Um?"

Noticing the factory manager's pause, Franky said, "Is that guy the princess?"

"No, that's not true!"

The Tontatta's eyes bulged in shock. What kind of thought process did this guy have?

How could their princess Tontatta Tribe, possibly be a human?!

He's also a large human, no smaller Fran Landu!

"I'm not some princess!"

The factory manager glared at me and said, "Listen up! I'm the number one person in the Factory, which means I'm the factory manager here!"

"Here, everything is up to me!"

As he spoke, the factory manager turned on the vacuum cleaner again and started vacuuming Franky's area.

The few Tontatta affected by this force immediately floated up and flew uncontrollably towards the factory manager.

Franky's expression changed upon seeing this, and he immediately flicked out his right hand, protecting Io and the others before Leo were sucked in, while also blocking the vacuum cleaner's entrance to prevent it from continuing to suck in air.

"Snort."

The factory manager snorted in annoyance at the sight, thinking, "What a nuisance!"

"You're Franky, the Cyborg from the Straw Hat Crew, right?" the factory manager said. "I've seen your file. As a one-star Convicts, you actually dare to come here... Aren't you afraid of dying?"

"If I were afraid of death, I wouldn't be me," Franky said calmly.

As he spoke, Franky withdrew his arm, and the factory manager turned off the vacuum cleaner, ceasing his efforts to capture the Tontatta.

Then, as if he had just thought of something, the factory manager frowned and asked, "Where is Lord Senor Pink?"

I heard from my subordinates that Lord Senor Pink was fighting this guy, but where is he?

At this moment, the factory manager was filled with doubt.

"Ah, that guy."

Franky grinned and said, "Probably busy right now."

As he spoke, the image of how he had tricked Senor Pink into leaving flashed through Franky's mind.

The more I think about it, the funnier it gets.

"Ha?"

A few question marks appeared above the factory manager's head: What does "probably busy" mean?

What could be more important than eliminating the invaders?

Forget about that, now's not the time to think about that. The most important thing right now is to get rid of this guy.

Thinking of this, the factory manager's eyes sharpened.

"In short... with me around, you can forget about running rampant in this Factory!" the factory manager shouted. "I'll personally end your life right now!"

As he spoke, the factory manager raised the vacuum cleaner in his hand, intending to give Franky a hard blow.

Unfortunately, these harsh words had no effect on Franky.

After glancing at the woman, who was over three meters tall, Franky strode over to her.

"Danger!"

"Run, Fran Landu!" the Tontatta shouted excitedly.

That vacuum cleaner is incredibly powerful; if it hits someone, even a hero's descendant would be...

Before they could finish their thought, Franky suddenly hugged the factory manager, leaving everyone present stunned.

"Huh?"

"Eh!!!"

"Frando... Fran Landu hugged the factory manager!"

The Tontatta's eyes bulged in shock. What kind of operation was this?
