Seeing that she seemed to mean no harm, Dongze went over and sat down.
Looking at the woman before him, he said calmly, "You still haven't answered my question. When were we supposed to have met?"
Hearing Dongze's words, Toki gave a rueful smile. "Lord Dongze, you really do know about my ability!"
Even Robin, clever as she was, found their conversation utterly baffling. She stopped interrupting and began surveying their surroundings. Sure enough, she spotted what Dongze had mentioned not far away: the red Poneglyph.

Toki snapped her fingers at
