For You, What Does It Matter If We Become Enemies of the World?

"Hey, hey, hey, Lucci, what kind of joke are you making? This is Enies Lobby!"

Jabura immediately jumped to his feet.

Because of Catherine, he disliked Lucci intensely.

"Yo, yo, oi, Lucci, did you get something wrong? Someone broke in alone? Is that even possible?"

Kumadori also sprang up.

Though he was usually frivolous and acted like a fool, he did not believe such a thing either.

Fukurou even unzipped his mouth, about to speak.

Just then, the Transponder Snail before Spandam rang again.

"Wah wah wah..."

"Hello!"

Spandam immediately picked it up. He had barely spoken when a panicked Marine voice came through the snail. "Sir, this is the main island. Something terrible has happened! A man came and took out all of us. He... ah..."

The voice abruptly cut off, leaving only a scream echoing throughout the room.

Thud!

Spandam's legs gave out, and the scream frightened him into collapsing onto the floor.

Just as Lucci had said, it really was one man.

Jabura and the other two exchanged glances, their faces full of disbelief.

Lucci and the others turned grim.

They never would have imagined that Moonlight would pursue them all the way here.

This was Enies Lobby.

"Wah wah wah..."

At that moment, another Transponder Snail began to ring.

It was a call from the first gate. "This is bad! The Straw Hat Crew, the Franky Family, and the Galley-La shipwrights have all broken in... Boom!"

Before the caller could finish, the roar of cannon fire erupted.

"Damn it!"

Spandam began trembling all over. First, a lone man had charged through the front island and main island by himself. Now the Straw Hat Crew and the others had all arrived.

Mere pirates dared to run wild in a place that symbolized Marine authority.

"I'll activate the Buster Call right now!"

Spandam raised the Golden Transponder Snail in his hand. As Lucci had said, he had to activate the Buster Call now. Only then could he settle everything here and... get promoted and receive a raise.

"Stop! That's the Buster Call! Do you know what will happen if you activate it?"

Seeing the Buster Call in Spandam's hand, Robin broke out in a cold sweat and shouted.

"What the consequences are, do I need you to tell me?"

Spandam sneered and pressed it directly.

At once, a secret order was sent to Marine Headquarters.

The Buster Call had been activated.

"You'll kill everyone here! The Buster Call will erase this entire island from the map! I'm begging you, stop it! Didn't you promise me that you would let Straw Hat and the others leave safely...?"

Robin panicked at the sight.

She had witnessed the terror of the Buster Call with her own eyes and had been enslaved by it for twenty years.

The reason she had obediently allowed herself to be taken away was because she did not want Luffy and the others dragged into this.

"Let them leave safely? Robin, at a time like this, do you really think that's possible?"

Spandam sneered.

Lucci said calmly, "What I promised was only that they would set sail safely."

"You..."

Robin froze.

She had been deceived!

"Ha ha ha, I never thought an evil demon like you would make that expression..."

Seeing Robin's face, Spandam laughed even more smugly.

"Let's go. Now that the Buster Call has been activated, this place will become a Sea of Flames before long."

Lucci and the other six had already risen, preparing to leave.

In their eyes, it did not matter how many people died. Ants had no value in existing.

Buzz!

However, at that moment, a massive crescent-shaped Sword Aura suddenly slashed in from outside.

Then came a tremendous impact, followed by the earthshaking crash of buildings toppling and towers collapsing.

"He's already here?"

Lucci's pupils contracted.

The other six all turned grave.

Seeing once was better than hearing a hundred times. No matter how much Lucci said, it could not compare to witnessing it with their own eyes.

Especially Jabura and the other two. This was their first time seeing Moonlight.

"Damn it, did he really fight his way here so quickly?"

Spandam shouted angrily. The elephant beside him suddenly transformed into a sword—Funkfreed. Then he walked out.

Lucci and the others followed.

They immediately saw that before the Tower of Justice, atop an enormous platform with eight raised stages, a youth in black stood holding a sword, coldly looking their way.

After the youth in black swept his gaze over everyone, it finally settled on Robin. He smiled faintly. "Robin, I came to take you home."

It was Moonlight!

"You're Moonlight, the Vice-Captain of the Straw Hat Crew?"

Spandam sneered at Moonlight.

"This is the man who broke in alone?"

Jabura and the other two studied Moonlight carefully.

"This man really chased us all the way here."

Franky was so stunned that his mouth would not close.

Robin's expression, however, changed drastically. Looking at Moonlight, she said, "Moonlight, leave now! Tell everyone to get out of here, quickly! The Buster Call has been activated. This place will soon be erased from the map!"

"Robin, I'm not leaving, and neither is everyone else. Look, they're already here. I just arrived first."

Moonlight shook his head and pointed at Luffy and the others rushing toward them from behind. His gaze was grave as he looked at Robin.

"No, you don't understand. None of you understand. Twenty years ago, the Buster Call took everything from me and destroyed countless lives. That disaster is now threatening all of you—the people I finally managed to be honest with. The more I want to stay with you, the more my fate will hurt you, dragging you into an endless abyss. No matter where I go on the seas, there is an enemy I can never shake off, because my enemy is this world and this darkness."

Robin's expression suddenly became frantic. Looking at Moonlight, she said emotionally,

"If this goes on without end, no matter how broad-minded you are, one day you'll see me as a burden. One day, you'll abandon me. I'm most afraid of that day coming, so I never wanted you to save me. Everyone has to die someday anyway, so just let me die here. Moonlight, I..."

But Moonlight abruptly cut her off. "Die? If you want to die, I have no objection. But you have to be with us, standing by our side—not with someone's sword at your throat. Besides, if you want to die, did you ask me? Have you forgotten our promise?"

"Moonlight!"

Robin froze. She suddenly recalled the promise they had made while gazing at the clouds on Skypiea.

"You help me decipher history, and I'll protect you!"

"But, but..."

Robin muttered, only to see Moonlight point at the flag bearing five circles atop the Tower of Justice.

"Is that your enemy?"

"Ha ha ha, that's right! Do you see it? That is the flag that represents the World Government! Do you know who you're making enemies of? Straw Hat Crew, you're nothing but insignificant pirates! Surrender obediently now, or I'll show you what true terror is!"

Robin did not answer. Spandam burst into laughter, pointing at the flag overhead as he clamored.

"A mere World Government? What is it worth?"

Moonlight gave a disdainful smile, then looked at Robin and said, word by word, "Robin, for you, what does it matter if we become enemies of the world?"

Buzz!

A crescent-shaped Sword Aura slashed out violently.

Under Spandam's dumbfounded stare, Lucci and the other seven's shocked expressions, Robin's disbelief, and Franky's stunned gaze, the Sword Aura tore through the flag fluttering in the wind atop the Tower of Justice—the flag that represented the World Government—like a dragon.

At the same time, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, Nami, and Chopper tore through the ground as they arrived, all standing atop the platform beside Moonlight.

The Straw Hat Crew had arrived in full!
