Seeing Franky's current miserable state, the Straw Hat Pirates felt a great deal of anger dissipate.
Naturally, no one dared to question this result.
"Hahaha, I'm telling you all, don't let such a small matter ruin your harmony. Franky, I'm warning you again, you're not allowed to set foot in Water 7! If you do it again, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
Just as the situation was becoming awkward, Iceburg stepped in and laughed twice, glossing over the situation and giving everyone a way out. Seeing this, everyone naturally took the opportunity to back down.
"In that case, I will host a banquet for everyone at my residence tonight. I hope you can do me the honor of coming for a simple meal as an apology to you all."
As soon as Iceburg uttered those words, a look of joy appeared on the faces of Luffy and the others.
"So that means there's a party! Is there meat? Hahaha, Iceburg, you're such a good person."
Upon seeing this, Luffy's face lit up with excitement. He patted Iceburg on the shoulder, a smile playing on his lips, and quickly responded.
The minor incident passed.
Night fell quickly, and when Lu Yu and the others arrived at Iceburg's house and were struck by the sight of this enormous mansion, a look of shock appeared on their faces.
As expected of the guy who runs the largest shipyard in Water 7, his actions are truly extraordinary.
Looking at the flowing banquet and abundant ingredients on the table, Luffy and his crew truly enjoyed themselves.
"Huh? Why hasn't Robin come back yet?"
Just as everyone was eating, Nami asked this question seemingly unintentionally.
" Chopper said that Robin disappeared while they were shopping together, and there's been no news of her since. I'm worried something might have happened to her."
Nami's words of concern slightly stiffened the previously cheerful atmosphere. Luffy, with a piece of beef shank in his mouth, was looking at Lu Yu.
Everyone understood that the person with the most powerful detection abilities here was none other than Lu Yu. If anyone knew Robin's location, it was unlikely that anyone other than Lu Yu could find her in a short time.
Seeing that everyone's eyes were on him, Lu Yu gave a bitter smile and then stood up gently.
"Alright, it seems the banquet should come to an end here. It's quite lively upstairs."
As soon as Lu Yu finished speaking, his figure slowly floated upwards and arrived at the fourth floor.
Seeing Lu Yu's condition, everyone realized that the answer they were looking for was probably on the fourth floor or above.
Once this thought arose in their minds, no one hesitated. When it involved their partners, everyone would treat it with utmost care.
Sure enough, when everyone rushed to the fourth floor, they found that the situation was not what they had imagined.
While they were enjoying their food, drink, and entertainment below without incident, they never expected that the host, Iceburg, who was entertaining the guests, would be bound hand and foot to a chair, with several masked figures standing in front of him.
"Hey, what's going on? Why did you kidnap Mr. Iceburg? Get away from him!"
Luffy, Luffy, with his quick temper, didn't hesitate at all. He swung his Gum-Gum Spear directly at the face of the person closest to the Iceburg, seemingly trying to knock off his mask.
" Luffy!"
Nami, however, seemed to see something different. Her expression stiffened slightly, and she called out loudly to Lu Fei.
Sure enough, when Luffy's hand stopped just centimeters away from the man's mask, the man seemed to have already anticipated that Nami would stop Luffy's actions.
After gently removing the mask, the face beneath it was revealed.
When everyone saw this face, they were all surprised. This person was none other than Robin, who had left during the day.
"Hurry! Hurry! Someone is attacking Mr. Iceberg!"
As Luffy and his crew made a commotion, the guards below naturally realized that something was wrong and rushed towards the mansion.
The room was now completely surrounded by guards below. Inside, the Straw Hat Pirates were seen surrounding Iceburg, and a woman who originally belonged to the Straw Hat Pirates was standing among the mysterious people who had kidnapped Iceberg, making the scene somewhat complicated.
" Straw Hat Pirates, what exactly do you mean by this? Mr. Iceburg treated you kindly, are you going to repay kindness with enmity?"
It's no wonder others would think that way; even Luffy showed a look of astonishment when he saw his teammates appear in front of those people.
However, he didn't say anything more at this moment, but instead cast an unfriendly glance at the others.
"Who exactly are you people? Why are you trying to persuade Robin to leave us? And judging from your aura, you're not ordinary people, are you?"
Faced with Luffy's questioning, the group didn't respond at all, but their actions spoke volumes.
From the foot of the person in front of them, a crescent-shaped kick unleashed terrifying power, as if it had solidified into a physical form, and charged forward.
"Interesting! I just wonder what advantage your strength has over my sword!"
A bright flash of light appeared, and Zoro's longsword was instantly drawn, colliding with the sharp blade that had solidified in front of him.
"Since you want to play, then I'll play with you!"
After the leader of the group finished speaking, the next burly man charged forward and began fighting Luffy.
However, what Luffy found strange was that the man didn't use any weapons; he possessed unparalleled strength solely through his two hands.
"This guy's fingers can actually poke a hole in the wall! Just how strong is that finger strength?!"
While Luffy was still marveling, a glint flashed in Lu Yu's eyes.
These guys in front of me also possess the power of Devil Fruits, but their current state isn't due to the abilities of Devil Fruits. Their physical abilities have long since been trained to surpass the level of ordinary people.
Seeing the scene before him, Lu Yu couldn't help but stroke his chin and mutter to himself:
"Extraordinary! I never imagined that such a power could exist in this world!"
This kind of training method is quite refreshing; I'm actually a bit interested in studying acting skills."
