After seeing Robin’s expression of seeing a ghost, more frightened than seeing the Admiral Kuzan, Leiyin was embarrassed to tease her again, “Well, without beating around the bush, I do have a business to find you.”
“Hey?”
“I have a lot of Poneglyph in my hands and want to ask you to help me decipher it.”
Robin smiled, her expression only slightly eased, “It looks like I can’t refuse?”
In front of LLeiyin’s overwhelming strength, Robin also felt that there was not the slightest way.
She didn’t expect that Leiyin said, “What I have in my hands is the [Road Poneglyph] and [Historical Poneglyph] that many pirates dream of, isn’t that what you want to get?”
Robin was shocked, “How do you know what I want?” 𝗈𝑽𝑙xt.𝗇𝓔t
Leiyin smiled, “Isn’t that what every archaeologist wants?”
Indeed, Leiyin’s words were not wrong. Many archaeologists wanted to uncover the hundred years of blank history that the Political Symbol had been trying to conceal, and Robin was one of them. It was Robin’s dream to see the Poneglyph.
Leiyin’s expression got serious, “To be honest with you, my next goal is to reach the ‘Final Island’ Laugh Tale, so I will do my best to collect all the [Poneglyph]. So my dream needs your help, and your dream also needs to rely on strong power to achieve.”
Leiyin’s words made perfect sense, while Robin fell into deep thought.
Seeing Robin, who was still hesitant, Leiyin added, “I sincerely invite you to join me to help me, and I will certainly help you to fulfill your dream, and will also do my best to protect you. Be my partner, can you, Nico Robin?”
With these words, Robin finally moved, this Four Emperor was far less vicious than imagined. He could have taken her away by force and then forcefully make her translate Poneglyph, but not only did he not do that, but he also treated herself as a partner.
“Of course, if you do not want to, I will never force.” Leiyin continued.
Leiyin was treating her so kindly, and deciphering the [Poneglyph] to find out the hundred years of history hidden by the World Political Symbol was exactly Robin’s biggest dream in this life. But she also knew that with this power of her own, even if she grew for fifty years, she would not be able to realize her dream at all.
“Happy to serve you.”
This time, Robin finally issued her heartfelt charming smile to Leiyin.
In this way, the two officially became partners.
Just when there was harmony in the tavern, the door of the tavern was kicked open all of a sudden.
“Nico Robin, we’ve been looking for you so hard, hahaha…”
There was a fat-headed, broad-faced, square-faced, five-scarred bald head guy with a group of pirates armed with swords and guns barged in.
The bald man was the leader of the group, [Fist Demon] Fester, a pirate of the West Blue, with a reward of 285 million Belly. It was said that he could throw sixty punches in a second, strong physical skills, hence the name “Fist Demon”.
Fester heard that Nico Robin was in the West Blue of Rock Island, his dream was also to become the Pirates King. There are two Historical Poneglyph in his hand, so he tracked here. He wanted to catch Robin to help himself to decode the Historical Poneglyph and take it for his own use.
“Hahahaha… Nico Robin, be a good girl and come with us, the brothers will not treat you badly!”
Fester’s vice captain, a tall, thin man with a goatee, looked Robin up and down with a lewd smile on his face, “Nico Robin, not only is she able to interpret Poneglyph, but she’s also a very nice woman.”
“She’s definitely a ‘good use’ woman!”
“Haha…”
These people were all laughing badly, and they were not good people at first glance.
But they had overlooked a big problem.
They were not like Robin who was so knowledgeable and smart that they could instantly remember important people and events when they saw the newspaper, so they could instantly recognize Leiyin.
They hadn’t cared about this skinny kid beside Robin.
“Hey, I advise you guys, keep your mouths clean!” Leiyin, who was next to her finally spoke, hearing the filthy words uttered by these pirates, with anger in his eyes.
“Hmm? Who are you? You are a green onion from the ground?” Fester said, walking towards Leiyin with his head held high.
“It’s not Robin’s little lover, is it? Haha… The captain must ‘treat’ this kid well.” The vice captain stroked his lewd moustache and made an extra remark.
Fester walked up to Leiyin and looked at him with a condescending look, “Do you know who I am, kid? Do you want to die?”
Leiyin slightly suppressed his anger, “You are a bunch of trash, scum…”
