Straw Hat Boy Capture Plan

However, Body Flicker Shisui was not joking around.

At close range, Shisui's Body Flicker Technique could be ranked in the top three across the entire Shinobi World.

This was a movement technique that stood on equal footing with his most masterful illusions.

Rob Lucci lunged and missed completely.

This shocked him, as he had intended to end the battle in an instant to avoid wasting time.

That was why he had transformed directly into his hybrid form, which was his strongest mode.

Yet, he couldn't even touch the hem of that man's clothes?

"Tekkai!"

Rob Lucci heard the sound of something breaking through the air.

It sounded like a bullet, and although he didn't hear a gunshot, he felt the threat was minimal.

Moreover, he was in the momentary lag following his use of Soru, and he felt that if he continued to use Soru to evade, he might still be hit, so he stood his ground and used Tekkai.

The shuriken, which tore through the air, clattered against Rob Lucci's body, emitting crisp, metallic sounds.

Rob Lucci lunged in the direction from which the shuriken had been thrown, but he missed again.

The two engaged in a contest of speed, leaving behind afterimages all over the rooftops and alleyways.

What kind of monsters are these!

Kaku wore a grave expression.

The others also felt that this was extremely troublesome.

Fortunately, the opponent was not with the World Government; otherwise, they would truly be in trouble this time.

"Is that all you can do, run away!"

Coward!

Rob Lucci was becoming irritated and ashamed.

Because he couldn't catch his opponent, he hadn't even managed to touch him once.

This was something he found impossible to accept!

What kind of fighting style was this? Was he trying to wear him out like this?

Shisui stopped in his tracks and threw a smoke bomb, instantly filling the narrow alleyway with thick smoke.

Rob Lucci frowned and swung his right hand with force, easily dispersing the smoke.

"Are you done running?"

Rob Lucci looked at Shisui, who was standing in the corner of the dead-end alley, and a smile appeared on his face.

Although he was still wrapped in bandages, he felt that with a single claw, he could rip this guy's heart out.

But Shisui remained silent and drew his short blade.

"Boom!"

Red flames instantly coated the short blade.

"Sword Leap Flame!"

Shisui used his Body Flicker to charge directly at Rob Lucci.

Mid-dash, he slashed out a wave of fire toward Rob Lucci.

Rob Lucci looked excited; he applied Tekkai to his right claw and tore the flames to shreds.

But Shisui had already arrived at his left side, slashing out another wave of fire, and almost simultaneously, he slashed out the same flame from the right.

It formed a Triangle Kill!

"Got you!"

But a smile appeared on Rob Lucci's face.

Ignoring the two waves of fire, he thrust his right hand directly toward Shisui's abdomen.

His right hand pierced through the enemy's abdomen just as he had intended, which gave him a sense of satisfaction.

But immediately, he froze.

"Poof."

Because the person in front of him had turned into smoke.

Rob Lucci's pupils constricted as he recalled the way Kalifa had been brought over by that man earlier.

He had fallen for a trap!

"Click!"

But he was given no chance to start over.

Seastone handcuffs were locked onto his wrists.

It turned out that Shisui had used the Transformation Technique to turn into a blade, which he then had his Shadow Clone wield to feint and deceive Rob Lucci.

He appeared beside Rob Lucci in the manner that posed the least amount of risk.

As the Shadow Clone dissipated, he also canceled his Transformation Technique and clamped the Seastone handcuffs onto his wrists.

"Despicable!"

Rob Lucci's eyes were wide with rage.

He felt his entire body go limp, making it impossible for him to continue resisting.

At this moment, he was filled with fury, and his hybrid form rapidly weakened and vanished, reverting him to his human appearance.

If he had lost to his opponent in an all-out battle, he would have accepted it.

Just like how he had lost to Monkey D. Luffy!

But to end up like this!

He refused to accept it!

However, his refusal was of no use.

Shisui took out steel wire, bound him directly, and dragged him out of the alleyway.

Kaku and the others watched this scene in stunned silence; this was not the ending they had wanted to see.

"How are your injuries?"

Uchiha Tamaharu asked.

He was not surprised by this result.

The tricks of a ninja were indeed too numerous; unless one could not be harmed, they were always worth a try.

Not to mention the massive vulnerability that Devil Fruit users had toward Seastone and seawater.

"Some internal bleeding, but it's not a major issue."

Shisui replied.

Rob Lucci looked at Shisui in shock, clearly not expecting that the one who had fought him was merely a wounded man.

"What do we do now? Both Kalifa and Lucci have fallen into their hands!"

Fukuro asked in a very low voice.

With Rob Lucci gone, Kaku was the one in charge.

"Let's negotiate. It doesn't look like they are with the World Government."

Kaku frowned deeply.

"We have already fulfilled your demands; can you release them now!"

Kaku immediately spoke up.

Rob Lucci did not say a word at this moment, waiting instead for the outcome.

If it didn't work, he would immediately speak up and tell Kaku and the others to flee.

"You are wanted by the World Government, but you are just people from an intelligence agency; I don't really want to deal with them."

"But this guy here was trying to kill, attempting to rip out my companion's intestines, which makes it impossible for me to just let you go."

Uchiha Tamaharu replied.

He put on a hesitant expression.

It made Kaku want to rush up and punch Uchiha Tamaharu.

The members of the Uchiha clan naturally followed Uchiha Tamaharu's lead.

"We can provide compensation. What are your demands!"

Kaku could not just give up like this, so he had to suppress the anger in his heart and continue speaking.

"Killing you is simple, but there happens to be a dangerous task that needs to be done, and I need manpower."

"Your leader will serve as a hostage. Once you finish this task for me, I will let you leave."

Uchiha Tamaharu did not drag things out and stated his requirements directly.

Hearing this, although Kaku's expression remained grim, he felt a sense of relief in his heart.

At the very least, everyone's lives were preserved.

At the same time, he was also surprised that this person knew their specific identities.

Even though they were wanted by the World Government, they certainly wouldn't have disclosed their true identities!

Kaku did not answer, instead turning his gaze toward Rob Lucci.

"What is the task you want us to do?"

Rob Lucci asked.

"Capture Monkey D. Luffy."

Uchiha Tamaharu said concisely.

"Deal!"

Upon hearing this name, Rob Lucci agreed without the slightest hesitation.

The other members of CP9 were also filled with astonishment, never having expected such a mission.

"Clean this place up, and once you're finished, come find us directly at the port."

Uchiha Tamaharu said directly.

He then signaled Yashiro and the others to take Rob Lucci and Kalifa away immediately.

He left Kaku and the others to handle the scene.

Although Kaku and the others were unwilling, they could only watch as this group of people with unknown origins took Rob Lucci and Kalifa away, disappearing from their sight.

"Let's get to work quickly; see if Jabra and Blueno are still able to move."

Kaku sighed, then gave the order.
