"This... is also a secret, I can't really say!" Xia Chen replied casually.

He can't exactly say he had a God's-eye view, can he?

"But you can rest assured, I have no ill intentions towards you, otherwise you would be dead long ago, and I'm sure you know that!"

Robin thought about it. That makes sense! If Xia Chen really wanted to harm her, she definitely wouldn't be able to resist.

Besides, there shouldn't be anything about her that Xia Chen would covet... right?

Clearing her mind, Robin walked towards the clock tower; she was indeed very interested in the Poneglyph!

Robin began to explain the text above.

" The Ancient Weapon bearing the name of a god— Poseidon, its location..."

"Another Ancient Weapon!" Robin muttered to himself, then said to Xia Chen:

Crocodile once told me that the Poneglyph of Alabasta likely contain information about the Ancient Weapon Pluton.

"Unfortunately, I didn't find that Poneglyph in Alabasta at the time, so I don't know if what he said is true or false!"

"Yes, what he said is true. There is indeed some information about Pluton on that Poneglyph!" Xia Chen replied calmly.

"You know?" Robin looked at Xia Chen in surprise.

"I know a little bit! It records that Pluton does exist, but he's asleep somewhere in the world. Unfortunately, it doesn't say exactly where Pluton's asleep!"

"Unlike this stone tablet, which clearly states that the Poseidon is on Fish-Man Island, right?"

As soon as Xia Chen finished speaking, Robin's face turned to shock. She hadn't even revealed what was behind the stone tablet yet!

"Don't be so surprised. I not only know where Poseidon is, but I also know exactly what Poseidon is!"

"Similarly, I know exactly where Pluton sleeps, and I even know who has the Pluton Blueprints!"

Xia Chen's series of spoilers completely shocked Robin.

" The Three Ancient Weapons: Pluton, Poseidon, Uranus!"

"They all possess the immense power to destroy the world! But even I only know information about Pluton and Poseidon; I know nothing about Uranus!"

After speaking, Xia Chen looked at Robin.

"Oh, by the way, there's a note Roger left over there; you can go take a look!"

Robin needs to discover and experience history herself to truly understand the truth, which is why Xia Chen brought her here.

As for the things he revealed, they don't actually have much to do with real history.

Let Robin have some time to himself for now; he's going to go play with the so-called god.

Since we're already here, and we live right below him, it wouldn't be right not to pay him a visit!

With a thought, Xia Chen's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.

Meanwhile, inside a shrine draped in giant vines.

A half-naked man wearing a white silk scarf on his head, with earlobes on both sides and Thunder Drum behind him, is lying on a comfortable recliner eating an apple.

" The Endless Vearth, the endless expanse of Vearth, almost there, almost there, I'll be there soon!"

Enel stared blankly at the sky, lost in reverie about the Endless Vearth. But just then, a strange voice came from in front of him, making his heart skip a beat.

"Wow, that sounds wonderful!"

Enel quickly turned his head and saw a man standing in front of him, looking at him calmly. He was terrified.

How is that possible? He controls a nationwide Mantra, how could he not even know when this man arrived here?

Enel, refusing to believe it, tried to sense Xia Chen's presence, but after a while, a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

I can't sense it!

He couldn't sense anything at all!

Even though Xia Chen was standing right in front of him, and even though he had activated his Mantra to the fullest extent, he still couldn't sense Xia Chen's presence at all.

If he couldn't see Xia Chen and hear Xia Chen's voice, he would have thought that this person didn't exist at all!

However, Enel's expression returned to calm after only a moment.

Even if the Mantra can't sense him, so what? He's a god, a god that mortals can't touch. No one can defeat him.

Enel then looked at Xia Chen with a calm expression and said, "Mortal, do you know that entering my shrine without my summons is a capital offense?"

"You've got some nerve... Pfft!"

Before Enel could finish speaking, Xia Chen appeared in front of him instantly and delivered a heavy punch to his abdomen.

Enel coughed up a mouthful of blood and flew backward, crashing into the shrine behind him.

"Why do you like babbling so much? Are you looking for a beating?"

Xia Chen sat down in the chair where Enel was lying; the bottom was made of clouds, making it very comfortable.

He discovered that in the world of One Piece, might truly reigns supreme!

With his current strength, he can act with impunity in most places without fear of anything threatening him.

This feeling is truly amazing!

"Damn human, I'll kill you!" A flash of lightning appeared in the pile of rubble, and then an extremely thick bolt of lightning rushed towards Xia Chen at high speed.

Xia Chen calmly opened his hand, Armament Haki swirling around it, then grabbed the incoming lightning with his bare hands and squeezed it tightly.

The lightning bolts seemed to have a physical form, which Xia Chen crushed directly, turning them into tiny lightning snakes that bombarded the surrounding ground.

"How... how is this possible?"

Enel stared wide-eyed at the scene, exclaiming incredulously, "Impossible! I am a god! No one in this world can defeat me!"

"Tch!" Xia Chen couldn't help but scoff upon hearing Enel's words.

"Ignorance is bliss! The narrower a person's perspective, the more inexplicable their courage and sense of pride they possess!"

"With your strength, countless people could defeat you! The Rumble-Rumble Fruit is wasted on you!"

Xia Chen said calmly, a thought popping into his mind.

"Should we take care of Enel now?"

But after thinking about it, Xia Chen decided to let him go for now. Although Enel was weak to Xia Chen, he was enough to be a good experience monster for Luffy and his Luffy, who had only recently mastered Haki!

Furthermore, Enel and his priests all possess Observation Haki Mantra, so fighting them might Luffy and his crew to advance their Observation Haki, which is currently stuck at the threshold.

"Alright, the matter is settled, I should go back now!" Xia Chen stood up and said calmly.

His main reason for coming here was to experience the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit in advance. After all, if Xia Chen didn't have a fruit, this fruit would be a good option for him!

Extreme speed and extreme attack power! One of the most terrifying natural disasters, what a formidable ability!

Xia Chen smiled slightly, then slowly walked away.

Enel remained standing in the pile of rocks, showing no intention of stopping Xia Chen. Although their exchange had been brief, he had already sensed that he was no match for the man before him. Why would he dare to interfere?

However, at this moment, he felt both anger and a hint of doubt.

Where did this person come from?

After Xia Chen's antics, Enel decided to launch the Ark tomorrow and head to the Endless Vearth.

Having someone as capable as Xia Chen around always made him feel inexplicably uneasy.

Only by going to the boundless land of Vearth can he find a sense of security!
