Capítulo 117: 117. Rob: I'm Afraid Of Death, Very Afraid Of Death!
After a while, Rob recovered from the ordeal of dying in the practice space and let out a long breath.
His face grew serious:
"The sixth talent— 'A Second Feels Like a Year' is indeed very powerful, but the side effects might be significant... Before, I was too arrogant and underestimated the power of 'death' too much!"
After experiencing death in the practice space, instead of becoming fearless, Rob found himself cherishing his life even more.
Some people might face death directly, accept their own death calmly, and ignore the great terror between life and death.
But after this life-and-death practice, Rob could say confidently:
He is afraid of death, very afraid of death!
He didn't know if he would overcome this fear in the future, but at least for now, he couldn't accept dying calmly. Unlike some strong men who put life and death aside, Rob cherished his life even more!
Death--
Should never be underestimated!
"When using this talent on Robin and the others, I need to be cautious, otherwise, problems will easily occur!"
After glancing at Robin, who was still asleep, and at the time, Rob murmured to himself:
"It's good to have a good chat with them later."
Originally, he planned to use the practice space to allow Robin and Makino to quickly gain combat experience and develop abilities and moves, allowing them to rapidly improve their strength!
However, after personally experiencing it, Rob felt that this plan needed to be more cautious. Ultimately, he didn't need them to become so powerful rapidly, and it was perfectly acceptable for them to grow slowly.
As for Uta—
She's too young; let's talk about it when she grows up!
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye--
Half a month had passed.
And in the past half month, Robin, Uta, and Makino drove the Angel, visited several cloud islands of Sky Island, and experienced the unique environment of Sky Island again!
At the same time, during the past half month, Rob used the sixth talent to conduct special training in life-and-death battles every day. The talent's proficiency gradually increased, and its side effects gradually diminished. He could even control his heartbeat rate, physical strength, and breathing.
Moreover, Robin, who had tasted the forbidden fruit for the first time, sneaked into Rob's bed almost every night after her body recovered.
In the past half month--
Robin's appearance is becoming more and more beautiful, exuding the special charm of a mature beauty. She is even more attractive and outstanding than when she was a girl, and the grace revealed in her demeanor is truly captivating!
These are the little things in life!
As the sun sets—
Above the deck of the Angel—
Little Uta is softly singing a ballad, her voice sounding like the music of nature from another dimension. Robin is drinking coffee, watching Uta sing with a doting smile on her face. Rob is playing the violin to accompany little Uta, while Makino also watches Uta with a gentle expression.
At this moment on the Angel—
There is a warm and beautiful feeling of time and tranquility!
After a few minutes, when little Uta finished singing, both Robin and Makino applauded her, making the simple-minded "little singer" show a satisfied expression and a happy smile on her face!
Putting down the violin in his hand, Rob said:
"Tomorrow we will leave Sky Island! After that, we will enter the New World. According to our previous voyage plan—this time, upon entering the New World, I will seek out the world's most beautiful places!"
"Are you ready?"
Hearing Rob's words, Robin, Uta, and Makino all looked at Rob with puzzled eyes. They didn't understand why he was emphasizing something that had been decided long ago!
Seeing their puzzled looks, Rob smiled:
"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you! Actually, it's like this—not long ago, I mastered a brand-new ability, which allows you to quickly gain a wealth of combat experience and better develop your Devil Fruit powers!"
"It's just that using it might bring certain negative effects. Do you want to use this talent to become stronger? You know what, I will let you experience it directly."
Hearing Rob's words, Robin said directly:
"Sure!"
Uta looked curious.
Makino also nodded:
"I have no problem either!"
Hearing their responses, Rob didn't have any worries and raised his finger:
"Alright then!"
Clap clap
He lightly tapped the brows of Robin, Uta, and Makino. Their eyes first lost focus, and then they closed them, as if taking a nap.
For Uta, the time comparison was completely one-to-one, but for Robin and Makino, Rob gave them a strength of one to ten, much lower than his own time of one to one hundred. With the mature spirits of Robin and Makino, they could handle it!
Ten minutes later.
Clap clap—
Rob tapped their eyebrows again, pulling them back from the spirit of the practice space!
When they opened their eyes, Uta's time flow rate was one-to-one, so she didn't practice in the space but just stayed there for ten minutes. Her expression didn't change at all after blinking.
Both Robin and Makino trembled at the same time, their eyes showing confusion and vigilance. It took a while for them to recover.
After recovering, Robin looked at Rob:
"Oni-chan, that was..."
Rob's mouth turned up slightly.
He spoke directly to the three of them, explaining:
"The place you just went to mentally is called the simulated practice space! There, you can use all your abilities freely and fight simulated enemies just like you did."
"Even if you die in battle, it won't affect you! But you can feel the pain of death clearly. Trust me—if you die in the practice space, then the feeling is definitely not something you want to experience!"
Hearing this, Robin and Makino nodded seriously. In the practice space, they had fought fiercely with the cadres of the Donquixote family they encountered on Jaya Island!
The real feeling and sensory feedback made Robin and Makino not doubt Rob's words at all!
Although it wouldn't cause real death, the experience was very real and terrifying!
"Oni-chan—"
After pondering for a moment, Robin's eyes turned to Rob:
"In the practice space..."
Robin wanted to ask something, and Uta and Makino responded, both looking at Rob.
Rob nodded, his face becoming serious as he said in a deep voice:
"I died. And it wasn't just once—every time I die, I remember it deeply and never forget it! So you'd better not be like me, you just need to train normally."
After hearing Rob's answer, Robin, Uta, and Makino all looked at Rob with admiration. They clearly knew the horror of death and had a deep memory of it, yet he dared to continue practicing the death battle.
As expected of Oni-chan!
"For now Uta will not use it as she is too young!"
Stretching out his hand to rub Uta's little head, Rob said with a smile:
"Robin and Makino, what do you think? Do you want to use the practice space to increase your combat experience or develop your abilities? The time flow rate of the practice space can be adjusted!"
"You can only use a time flow rate of one-to-ten to practice now. If the time difference is greater, your spiritual will might collapse, turning you into a lunatic, a fool, or even an absolutely rational monster without emotions!"
After looking at each other, both Robin and Makino looked serious:
"Please, Oni-chan (Rob-kun)!"
Rob nodded with a smile and said:
"Then every day before going to bed, we'll do a one-hour training session in the practice space. When you can withstand a stronger time difference, we'll upgrade to the level of one to ten!"
None of the three had any objection to this arrangement.
And so—
The plan to help Robin and Makino improve their strength using the sixth talent—A Second Feels Like a Year—was decided!
Rob believed that the two of them would be able to transform their strength in a short period of time. After all, with Rob guiding them, it was hard to imagine them not becoming stronger!
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye—
Another month had passed!
After leaving Sky Island, the Angel, carrying Rob and his companions, returned to Sabaody Archipelago after a month of stop-and-go travel.
During this month, according to the original plan, the training of Robin and Makino had progressed very smoothly. Not only had their combat experience increased, but they had also used the practice space to develop their Devil Fruit moves!
The progress in developing their abilities had been quite impressive!
Especially for Makino—
In the past, the Angel was too big for her to fully develop the abilities of the Flame-Flame Fruit, but in the practice space, it was different.
With the large amount of experience using her fruit abilities gained in the practice space, when returning to reality, she only needed a little practice to directly combine her experience with actual abilities.
Makino's strength and improvement speed were quite remarkable!
And—
With the practice space, Makino didn't need to spend more time developing the Flame-Flame Fruit's abilities!
As for the issues of physique and stamina, with Rob's continuous improvement of potential-enhancing potions and body training potions, she didn't need to spend a lot of time on exercise!
Since Makino boarded the ship, she finally had more time to do what she wanted to do...

Sabaody Archipelago.
On the shore of Grove 40—
Crash!
With the sound of the ship pushing away the waves, the Angel docked steadily, then lowered the anchor, and docked firmly on the shore.
"Um!!"
Rob on the deck stretched, twisted his body, thumped his waist and shoulders, with a relaxed expression on his face.
Tap-tap--
A series of footsteps sounded.
Robin, Uta, and Makino, who came to Sabaody Archipelago for the first time, all came to the deck with curious faces.
"Finally reached."
With a smile on his face and a radiant expression, Robin spoke with emotion.
Makino looked expectantly at the huge main trunk and smiled, saying:
"Is this the Sabaody Archipelago? What a magical island!"
And Uta, who was wearing a princess dress, with a nice little earphone on her neck, bounced to Rob's side. Holding Rob's hand, she said:
"Nii-chan, I want to go to the island to play!"
Rob rubbed Uta's little head and tugged at her flexible, bunny-ear-like hair. With a gentle smile on his face, he said:
"Okay! I'll take you to Sabaody Park later!"
Hearing these words, a smile appeared on Uta's face. She was really cute and then directly regarded Rob, who was already 1.95 meters tall, as a big tree, and climbed onto Rob's broad back in two or three steps. Arms around Rob's neck, and a kiss on the cheek, she said:
"Thank you!"
As they talked, Rob looked at Robin and Makino and said:
"Let's go play together! If there's something you want to see, you can also explore separately and then meet up later! We'll stay here for a few days!"
"After that, we'll enter Fish-Man Island, and then head to the New World!"
Hearing what Rob said, both Robin and Makino nodded. They followed Rob's figure, the four talked and laughed together, and walked towards the inside of the Sabaody Archipelago.
They went to Sabaody Park where Uta wanted to play, then went shopping, bought a batch of daily necessities, and bought a large number of various medicinal materials for making two major potions.
The news that Rob and his crew appeared in Sabaody Archipelago has spread widely.
Only—
Given Rob's current status and reputation on the sea, along with his notable achievements and his terrifying strength, no one dares to disturb their interest in shopping!
In the blink of an eye, five days passed like this.
On the night of the fifth day.
At the rip-off tavern on Grove 13—
Rob came here alone and met Rayleigh, who wasn't out fooling around.
"You fought Garp?"
Drinking the fine wine brought by Rob, Rayleigh looked at Rob unexpectedly.
Then sighed:
"How do you feel? The strength of that old man should not be underestimated!"
Nodding in approval, Rob said:
"Yeah! He's really amazing!"
"From the perspective of the strength and techniques I've mastered, I am not inferior to him, maybe even surpass him! But Garp's combat experience is too fierce! I can't take advantage of it at all. I can only use the method of exchanging injuries for injuries to deal damage!"
True—
During the battle with Garp, Rob didn't use his Devil Fruit ability much, but that doesn't matter. If you lose, you lose. Insufficient combat experience is a weakness, and it isn't shameful to acknowledge and improve upon it.
It's worth mentioning that—
In battle, Rob rarely uses his Devil Fruit abilities and prefers to fight with his own body and sword skills. This is a matter of personal fighting habits, and it's relatively difficult to change it. After all, in a battle, everyone will subconsciously choose the style of play they are most familiar with to ensure victory.
His combat effectiveness has always been more dependent on his own strength and the development of his Devil Fruit abilities. Except for the Op-Op Fruit's "Perennial Youth Operation," Rob's enthusiasm for developing his fruit abilities isn't that high!
Rob has never relied much on his Devil Fruit ability in battle.
So why choose to eat a Devil Fruit?
Of course to look handsome!
There's a fifth talent-extreme sublimation to ensure that you won't leave yourself a weakness, and Devil Fruits are used to look cool and be aggressive!
Under such circumstances, as a traveler, even if he doesn't rely on the fruit ability, he would choose to eat one or two Devil Fruits, right?
Based on this idea, Rob wants to get the Rumble-Rumble Fruit because he believes in having what others have, even if he doesn't need to use it. Is there any problem with this?
The later Op-Op Fruit is because of the "Perennial Youth Operation," which can bring immortality!
When he was thinking about his third Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, the first one he considered was not the form of Nika, which seemed to be stronger, but Kaido's Azure Dragon form.
This is also due to collecting hobbies and considerations that align with his own sense of style!
If we really want to talk about the fruit ability itself—
Rob isn't that interested!
But back to the main point.
Hearing that Rob didn't make excuses for his failure, Rayleigh couldn't help but nod. As someone who used to fight against Garp often, he naturally knows Garp's strength!
Taking a sip of wine, Rayleigh saw the confidence in Rob's eyes:
"But next time... I won't lose again!"
Rayleigh grinned and said:
"Hahaha... you're really confident! Entering the New World this time, you must have plans, right? Who's your target? The 'Strongest Creature' - Kaido? Or the 'World's Strongest Man' - Whitebeard?"
Rob is chasing the title of 'the strongest.' Rayleigh knew this, so he was very curious whether Rob was going to challenge Kaido or Whitebeard this time.
Raising his wine glass, Rob's eyes gleamed with determination:
"Why can't it be both?"
Rayleigh froze for a moment before raising his glass to toast Rob:
"Then I wish you success!"
The two quickly shifted their conversation away from this topic, and soon hearty laughter filled the tavern as they enjoyed their chat.
Late at night, when Rob was about to leave, Rayleigh escorted him to the door of the tavern.
"Mr. Rayleigh!" Turning around, Rob looked at Rayleigh, "The island of Raftel shouldn't be an island in the ordinary sense, right? Otherwise, the World Government would have found it in eight hundred years. So if you want to go to Raftel, in addition to the Road Poneglyphs, there must be special conditions!"
Hearing Rob's question, Rayleigh looked intrigued and then said:
"Huh? Are you interested in Raftel too? If it's you, maybe it's really possible for you to reach that place! Are you sure you need me to tell you? The old man thinks it might be more interesting if you discover it yourself!"
Shaking his head, Rob casually said:
"No need! I don't have any interest in that place! I'm just interested in the Poneglyphs, and on what kind of state this island is like! And I know very well—even if I got to Raftel, it would be useless. The Joyboy it was waiting for isn't me, but someone else, and I've already met the Joyboy that Raftel is waiting for."
Rayleigh's pupils shrank, and he looked at Rob in disbelief, his face full of surprise for a moment:
"You know?"
With a slight nod, Rob turned away:
"Goodbye, Rayleigh. When we meet next time, I will have become a true 'legend'!"
Seeing Rob leaving, Rayleigh opened his mouth but didn't know how to ask again. Rob, on the other hand, said goodbye in a good mood.
This old man—he just asked curiously about Raftel and ended up talking about something as if he was posing a riddle. Such a difficult old man!
The next day.
Early in the morning—
On the shore of the Sabaody Archipelago, on the deck of the Angel, Rob was ready to set off for Fish-Man Island. He looked at the sea and raised his hand to caress the rudder of the Angel.
Rob looked forward and said:
"Xiaobai, submarine mode!"
Following Rob's order, the hull of the Angel began to dive towards the bottom of the sea, not too fast and not too slow. A layer of transparent compartments, like soap bubbles, appeared continuously on the part of the hull that had already submerged.
Quickly, when the Angel fully submerged into the bottom of the sea, the coating wrapped the entire Angel and slowly descended towards the deep sea.
Seeing this for the first time, Makino's face was filled with surprise:
"The bottom of the sea looks so beautiful! This is a scene that people on the surface can hardly see, right?"
Robin, who was more curious than Makino and had seen this situation before, was even more interested in the layer of coating that isolated the seawater released by the Angel. She said:
"This resin? No, it feels different!"
Rob reached out and touched the water barrier, which was thinner than the resin but much stronger. He explained:
"It's not the resin from Saboady, but a similar air shield. It's not only stronger but also has good defensive power. It won't burst directly even if too many holes are opened at one time!"
"And it won't be unusable just because we leave the Sabaody Archipelago. Its performance is infinitely better than that resin! Xiaobai's submersible mode is quite impressive."
