Chapitre 213: Chapter 212 Isnt he only worth 50 Berry?
As Lucci pondered further, another realization hit him: Luffy and the others had already consumed the Constitution Potion, enhancing their physical prowess even more. CP9 had already lost to them before they took the potion, and now...
This revelation dealt another heavy blow to Lucci, pushing aside all other considerations. His mind was consumed by a single question: Why was he so weak? Being a prodigy since childhood, his strength was the foundation of his pride. Its fracture left him unable to maintain his composure.
Kaku and the others observed Lucci's expression, witnessing a rare moment of vulnerability. It was the first time they had seen Lucci in such a bewildered state.
This realization hit Lucci and the rest of CP9 hard, and the impact was equally significant for them. The defeat of CP9 had cast a dark cloud over their collective mood, leaving them in a state of considerable dismay.
The general sentiment towards CP9 had been one of defiance, with many harboring a desire to witness the group taste the bitterness of failure. Now, with CP9's defeat, those sentiments were vindicated, and there was a palpable sense of joy among those who had long wished for this outcome. The thought of CP9, once abandoned and hunted by the World Government, experiencing failure brought a certain satisfaction.
People rejoiced at the downfall of CP9, viewing them not as superior agents but as mere tools and dogs of the government. The revelation that, when deemed useless, they could be discarded and hunted down like common criminals added to the public's delight. The once-perceived superiority of CP9, stripped away, revealed them as no different from ordinary government slaves—ultimately, just pawns in the hands of the Tenryuubito. The prevailing sentiment was that CP9, despite their skills, were nothing more than obedient servants of the World Government.
As Blueno was knocked down, Spandam also found out about this situation, and he was shocked and hurriedly summoned other CP9s to erase the Straw Hat Crew.
In haste, Spandam summoned the remaining CP9 members to eliminate the Straw Hat Crew. On the opposing side, the Straw Hat Crew arrived later, and the two groups confronted each other.
CP9 stood on one side, the Straw Hat Crew on the other, with Nico Robin and Franky held as hostages. The Straw Hat Crew urgently called out to Nico Robin, expressing their willingness to face any danger to rescue her. Despite the peril, they insisted that if she chose to return, they would go to great lengths to save her. However, haunted by the traumatic memories of Buster Call from her childhood, Nico Robin was paralyzed with fear at the prospect of Spandam, who wielded the authority over Buster Call. She also feared that the Straw Hat Crew might sacrifice themselves to save her, making her reluctant to agree and urging them to escape.
At that moment, Nico Robin, watching the scene unfold on the screen, was deeply moved. If not for her firsthand experience during the live broadcast of the QnA then she might still harbor the same fear of Buster Call as depicted in the video. However, having witnessed the Straw Hat Crew's triumphant return from Enies Lobby, she no longer feared Buster Call. Empowered by Haki, she felt a newfound strength within herself.
Despite overcoming her fear, Nico Robin couldn't help but be touched by the Straw Hat Crew's efforts in Enies Lobby to rescue her. Like Saul say, she had found a partner she could trust with her life. In the video, Robin finally revealed the reason for her initial reluctance to return—she feared becoming a burden to the Straw Hats. Worried that the relentless pursuit by the World Government might one day become unbearable for the crew, she chose to leave to spare them from potential hardship.
Upon learning of Robin's concerns, Luffy immediately directed Sogeking to attack the World Government's flag, setting it ablaze. The burning flag, a symbol of the World Government, served as a declaration of war right in the heart of Enies Lobby. This audacious act resonated across the globe, leaving people worldwide astonished.
The Straw Hat Crew's bold defiance of the World Government to rescue their comrade was undeniably inspiring, earning admiration from all corners of the world. This audacious act amounted to a blatant declaration of war against the World Government. With or without Nico Robin present, the Straw Hats had undoubtedly placed themselves at the top of the World Government's hit list. Failure to act would tarnish the World Government's prestige.
Zephyr, a person with no fondness for pirates, couldn't help but marvel at Luffy's unwavering loyalty upon witnessing the scene. Reflecting on Caesar's attempt to use Doflamingo to suppress Luffy in a previous video, Zephyr found it ludicrous, as Luffy not only disregarded Doflamingo but openly defied the mighty World Government.
The spectacle lessened people's fear of the World Government. Previously perceived as an untouchable behemoth, the World Government now seemed vulnerable. Luffy, a seventeen-year-old, had done the unimaginable—publicly declaring war on the World Government at Enies Lobby, successfully rescuing his partner, and escaping unscathed. In the subsequent two years, he continued his sea voyage without facing consequences.
This audacious display demonstrated that, with enough strength, even the World Government could be ignored. Luffy's firsthand proof reshaped people's perspectives, revealing that the seemingly invincible World Government could be challenged.
The scene served as a catalyst, inspiring many to take the first step in resisting the World Government. People worldwide felt empowered, unwilling to be inferior to a seventeen-year-old boy. The message was clear: even the World Government could be challenged and overcome with enough strength and determination.
For a period, the pirate Luffy became a role model for many aspiring to rebel against the World Government. Simultaneously, the atmosphere in the halls of power reached a freezing point. The CP9, an elite force of the World Government, had been defeated by Straw Hat Luffy, tarnishing the organization's image. Now, the Straw Hat Crew openly burned the World Government's banner, an explicit declaration of war. Inaction would risk the loss of the World Government's prestige; hence, the Straw Hat Crew had to be held accountable for their audacious actions.
Under these circumstances, Nico Robin abandoned any self-deception and revealed the truth to her comrades, marking the official commencement of the rescue mission. Franky, moved by the friendship displayed by the Straw Hats, realized that Nico Robin wasn't the dangerous threat Mr. Tom had feared. In a bold move, he presented the blueprint of Pluton to Spandam, asserting, "As long as you use Nico Robin, you can awaken the weapon. She's a dangerous woman, but she has a partner willing to protect her. So, I'm willing to bet it all... There's only one way to honor the blueprinter's intent."
Spandam, realizing his error, demanded the blueprints, but Franky, after a deep breath, unleashed flames that incinerated the blueprints into ashes. The legendary Pluton Blueprint, capable of shaping the world's destiny, lay in ruins. Although this tragedy occurred in the visual broadcast, the real Pluton blueprint remained in Franky's hands, serving as a cautionary reminder to those who sought to seize it.
The final battle in the video unfolded. Nico Robin, wearing Seastone handcuffs, could only be saved by obtaining the key held by CP9. Acting separately, the Straw Hat Crew faced CP9 members in one-on-one battles to capture the key and rescue Robin. Zoro and Usopp confronted Kaku and Jabra, Franky faced Fukurou, Chopper took on Kumadori, Nami and Sanji confronted Kalifa, and Luffy squared off against Rob Lucci.
Spandam, with Robin in tow, attempted to escape through the Door of Justice, preparing for evacuation. Having witnessed Blueno's defeat by Luffy, the idea that the Straw Hat Crew might overcome CP9 became more acceptable.
The first CP9 member to fall was Fukurou, swiftly defeated by Franky's attack. The second to fall was the Kumadori, a battle beyond everyone's expectations. The seemingly harmless reindeer transformed into a colossal monster, instantly overpowering the elite CP9 member. Observers were baffled, recalling the reindeer's 50-Berry bounty on Marine's list. People couldn't fathom how such a formidable foe received such a low bounty.
In the midst of the chaos, Chopper, the reindeer, stood out. Everyone turned their attention to him as he demonstrated unexpected strength, prompting awe from Luffy and Usopp, who eagerly inquired, "Chopper, can you do that?"
