Perona: "?"
Kaku immediately guessed what Lin Mo had in mind and grinned mischievously. "I get it. Clever move, Captain. Aokiji probably came to the West Blue with Kizaru. Why they got separated doesn't matter. What matters is that he'll definitely go back to find Kizaru. So, do you get it now?"
Enel and Perona both shook their heads, looking utterly lost.
Kaku sighed. "You two are really slow on the uptake. The captain just wants to make their reunion a little more difficult. Besides, if we drop Aokiji off at the foot of Reverse Mountain, all he'll know is that we're crossing it. The East Blue and South Blue are on the other side, so he can't be sure which sea we're heading to. Anyway, this plan is definitely wiser than having Little White beat him up. Beating Aokiji would only vent our anger for a moment. It wouldn't actually benefit us at all. Better to keep him owing the captain money. As expected, the captain thinks further ahead and considers everything more carefully."
Lin Mo: "..."
Enel: "..."
"What a load of nonsense." Enel didn't care about any of that. "Doesn't that mean he gets off unharmed? This Thunder God doesn't see anything clever about it."
"And you still won't admit you're stupid." Kaku couldn't be bothered to explain any further. "Just do what the captain said. You'll probably have to keep the ship moving all night."
Enel: "!"
Kaku rubbed his chin and muttered, "Since we're dropping him off tomorrow, we can't let him wake up too soon. Perona, bring the sleep-aid juice we pressed from the fruit we gathered on Green Island to my laboratory. I'm going to make a solid balm."
"Ah, okay, got it!" Perona nodded and immediately went to do as Kaku asked.
