Descend on Enies Lobby!

Lu Zhuo's Holy Sword was trailing the Sea Train carrying CP9 closely, though the speed of that Sea Train was indeed formidable. If Lu Zhuo's new Holy Sword hadn't been upgraded with significantly increased power according to his specifications, it likely wouldn't have been able to keep up.

At this moment, the Holy Sword was equipped with numerous Breath Dials from Skypiea at its stern, serving as its propulsion system.

Furthermore, the sea had suddenly turned dim, with a violent storm raging, yet Lu Zhuo's Holy Sword rode the gale steadily, moving at high speed.

Between Lu Zhuo's suppressing power and the combined efforts of Law, Nami, and the others, the three-story, tens-of-meters-long Holy Sword cut through the waves, which were often hundreds of meters high, with ease.

Sitting on the deck, Lu Zhuo watched a massive wave stretching for a kilometer surging toward them, a flash of sharp light crossing his eyes.

"Hoo, it's up to you. With a wave this big, I can't even open a hole through it!" Law slowly retracted his ability, standing beside Lu Zhuo with a cold expression as he watched the giant wave before them.

Lu Zhuo gripped his sword with one hand and drew it slightly.

BOOM!

A massive tremor echoed out as the giant wave, nearly a hundred meters high and stretching for a kilometer, was instantly split down the middle!

Lu Zhuo's Holy Sword sailed through slowly, and only then did the severed waves begin to converge once more.

"As expected of a Sea Train, to be able to sail in this kind of hellish weather."

Lu Zhuo slowly sheathed his sword and gazed into the distance. Although his eyes couldn't see much in this weather, his Observation Haki had been constantly shrouding that Sea Train.

Everything inside the Sea Train could not escape his surveillance. Should Nico Robin or Conis truly fall into danger, Lu Zhuo could reach them in an instant using Geppo.

Inside the Sea Train, the interior was swaying violently due to the storm outside.

The members of CP9 were all seated steadily in their chairs, while in the corner sat Nico Robin and Conis, both shackled in Seastone handcuffs.

"Sister Robin, why did they capture us?" Conis was not a Devil Fruit user, but for the sake of caution, CP9 had shackled her with Seastone as well.

Robin looked at the CP9 members in the distance, a trace of worry on her face.

It's me they're after again. Given Lu Zhuo's personality, he will definitely go to war with CP9 without a moment's hesitation.

Conis also wore a worried expression and asked, "What is CP9? They captured us, so they must be bad people."

Robin shook her head, her face filled with confusion.

If it concerns me, the only thing I can do for them is decipher ancient texts. But what ancient text could they possibly need me to decipher? Enough to mobilize the entire CP9 and risk being completely annihilated by the captain.

Robin did not doubt Lu Zhuo's strength in the slightest. In her view, Lu Zhuo was only slightly inferior to a Marine Admiral; a mere CP9 could easily be wiped out by him.

But the problem was that destroying CP9 would be a direct slap in the face to the World Government. It was likely that the next time they faced a crackdown, all three Marine Admirals might be dispatched. Just thinking about that scene was terrifying.

Watching Robin, who was slumped weakly against the wall, Conis felt a lump in her throat and suddenly burst into tears.

"Sister Robin, I'm so useless. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have been captured."

Robin looked at Conis and smiled, wanting to reach out to wipe away her tears, but with both hands cuffed behind her back and her body feeling weak and sore, it was truly difficult to move.

"It's not your fault. You are my partner, and more importantly, my sister. Even if you weren't there, I'm afraid they would have found another way to capture me."

"Wuu wuu, I'm still too useless. If I were stronger, this wouldn't have happened." Conis looked at the powerless Robin with a heavy heart.

Robin smiled brightly and said, "Since Lu Zhuo said he would find the most suitable Devil Fruit for you, he will definitely be able to do it..."

In the distance, Lu Zhuo, who was closely following the Sea Train, swung his sword from time to time to cleave through giant waves, ensuring the ship's steady passage.

The members of CP9 inside the Sea Train were completely unaware that a Holy Sword was riding the waves right behind them.

They might not have possessed Observation Haki, or even if they did, it was far inferior to Lu Zhuo's fully mastered Observation Haki.

Just like that, the Holy Sword hung tightly behind them until, at long last, they arrived at their destination: Enies Lobby!

Upon arriving at Enies Lobby, the weather suddenly cleared. Where there had been a violent storm moments ago, it was now sunny and warm as spring.

It was at this moment that the CP9 members, leading Robin and Conis off the train, finally spotted the Holy Sword not far away.

Lucci's pupils constricted as he shouted, "Move quickly! Take Nico Robin and that little girl into the island!"

"You promised me that once we reached Enies Lobby, you would release Conis. Do you intend to go back on your word?" Robin looked at Lucci and said coldly.

She knew that Conis was indeed the weakest link among them; if she remained held by CP9, it would likely cause significant trouble.

So, even seeing that Lu Zhuo had already caught up, she continued to negotiate with CP9.

Lucci looked at Robin, fell silent for a moment, and said, "Fine. Release the little girl!"

"But..." Blueno hesitated for a moment, only to be met with a cold glare from Lucci.

"Execute the order! All we must do is obey and execute. We represent the World Government; we cannot lose face for the World Government!" Lucci shouted.

Under Lucci's shout, the members of CP9 fell silent.

They were not that useless chief Spandam. In fact, after receiving this order, they had already prepared themselves.

A pirate crew that dared to fight a Marine Admiral and survived without being wiped out—how could they fear a mere Enies Lobby?

Such a person would inevitably storm the gates; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to stand tall in the pirate world.

Originally, the CP9 members had mobilized in full force, yet they found it difficult to capture Nico Robin in a short time, so they had suddenly seized Conis to threaten Robin into surrendering.

To protect Conis, Robin had made an agreement with them to release Conis immediately upon reaching Enies Lobby.

As agreed, the CP9 members unlocked Conis's handcuffs, and Kalifa immediately took Robin and began running toward the depths of the island.

The rest of the CP9 members stood there in silence, watching the Holy Sword as it prepared to dock.

Lucci watched the Holy Sword pull into the harbor with a cold gaze and said to Conis, "We have kept our promise; you are released!"

At this moment, Conis's eyes were calm. She knew she absolutely could not bring trouble to Lu Zhuo, so when she parted ways with Robin just now, she had suppressed all her emotions deep within her heart.

It was not until this very moment that she ran to the shore and threw herself into Lu Zhuo's arms, bursting into tears.

"Brother Lu Zhuo, I'm so useless, I..."

Lu Zhuo gently embraced her, cutting off her words, and whispered into her ear, "It's alright, it's over now. I know everything..."

After soothing Conis, Lu Zhuo turned his head and looked coldly at the members of CP9.

"Rob Lucci, Kaku, Jabra, Blueno, Kumadori, Fukuro, Nero—and where is Kalifa?"

As these names were called out, shock appeared in Lucci's eyes, and he demanded, "How do you know who we are?"

Lu Zhuo let out a cold snort and said, "There is no need for you to know. CP9, is it? You captured my people—are you prepared to bear the brunt of my wrath?"

Lucci and the rest of the CP9 members stared back at him with icy expressions.
