Capítulo 139: Chalter 139
"Crewmate…"
Upon hearing this word, Aokiji's expression froze abruptly. He lowered his head slightly, scrutinizing the Straw Hat Pirates. "Do you realize how a child of merely 8 years old managed to survive until now? How many people she manipulated?"
"Hey! Don't spout that nonsense! Just leave!" Luffy pointed to the side and bellowed. He didn't want to hear these disconcerting and messy things; he just knew that this guy in front of him was terrifying his crewmate.
However, Aokiji seemed impervious to Luffy's words. He continued to himself, "Whenever she betrayed, she fled, and when someone took her in, she used every means to survive… relying on this instinct, she survived in the underground world through manipulation. But this time, she chose to hide among you guys. Do you understand what that means?"
"Hey, you jerk! Stop talking nonsense about Robin! What's your problem with her?!" Sanji's face darkened, ready to strike.
Sitting down, Aokiji placed his hands on his knees casually. "I don't harbor any hatred toward her. It's just that… she slipped from my grasp once. A long time ago."
He looked at the Straw Hat Pirates. "You'll soon realize your situation, and soon the consequences will come from associating with this troublesome woman."
"Shut up, you ice man! I'll take you down!" Luffy, unable to contain his anger, rolled up his sleeves, and his jet-black Armament Haki appeared on his right arm.
"Don't act rashly, Luffy!" Usopp intervened, hugging Luffy tightly. "He's the strongest Marine! Are you looking to get us all killed?!"
"Oh? Have you mastered Armament Haki?" Aokiji's sleepy gaze sharpened as he examined Luffy's arm. Then, touching the back of his head, he remarked in an enlightened tone, "You're truly naive."
"You don't have to believe me, but the evidence speaks for itself. So far, all the organizations related to Nico Robin have vanished!"
Aokiji seemed inclined to continue, but Robin couldn't take it anymore.
"Shut up!" Fear turned to anger, and she rushed at Aokiji, activating her Flower-Flower Fruit ability. Numerous arms appeared, contorting Aokiji's body.
"What do you want? If you intend to arrest me, then do it!" Robin shouted in hysteria. In her fury, she shattered Aokiji with a loud bang!
"Wow! He's dead!" Chopper gasped in shock.
"Impossible! Everyone, run!" Usopp panicked.
But with a crystalline sound, the shattered ice reformed into Aokiji's solid body. He casually plucked a handful of grass and suddenly froze it into an ice sword.
"Although I didn't intend to take your life…" Aokiji wielded the sword and slashed at Robin.
"Stop dreaming!" Zoro's voice thundered as he intervened. With a clang, Wado emerged from its sheath! His pitch-black Armament Haki surged along his arm and onto Wado instantly. He then fiercely struck at Aokiji.
Aokiji's eyes twitched. "Huh? Your Armament Haki isn't weak either!"
In a brief span, Aokiji witnessed Armament Haki from both Luffy and Zoro, one after the other. This revelation shocked him deeply! Despite having apprehended numerous pirates with Armament Haki in the New World, this was the first time within the first half of the Grand Line.
The rookie pirate group before him had ventured out to sea just a few months ago. To see two formidable wielders of Armament Haki within such a newly formed crew worried Aokiji greatly. His concern wasn't about their immediate battle but the potential dire consequences if this pirate group was allowed to develop unchecked.
Blocking Zoro's slash with his sword, Aokiji faced the challenge. Although Zoro possessed mid-level Armament Haki, Aokiji wasn't a Logia on Smoker's level. Many pirates with high-level Armament Haki had confronted him before, but ultimately, they all fell to him.
Sanji swiftly followed, employing "Leaf Whirlwind" by unlocking the fifth gate of Eight Inner Gates, delivering a powerful kick that shattered Aokiji's sword. However, in an instant retaliation, Aokiji froze Sanji in ice, while the biting cold also spread towards Zoro.
Zoro activated his intense Armament Haki to shield himself, but it wasn't enough. Despite his efforts, the frost began encasing his arms. Realizing their predicament, Zoro swiftly retreated, rescuing Sanji.
In a timely arrival, Luffy emerged, his massive fist covered in jet-black Armament Haki. Aokiji was taken aback, astonished by the Haki on Luffy's fist. He had initially thought Luffy's talent was fearsome, but witnessing it firsthand now, he realized it was not just terrifying, but insanely so.
Observing Luffy's high-level Armament Haki, Aokiji was astonished. Even Mr. Garp hadn't reached such a level at Luffy's age. Facing Luffy's powerful attack, Aokiji understood this wasn't an ordinary strike.
Resolute, Aokiji transformed his right arm into an ice construct, conjuring a menacing ice bird known as "Ice Block: Pheasant Peck." Launching the ice bird at Luffy, it froze everything in its path.
The collision between Luffy's strike and the ice bird shattered it, but the force also halted Luffy's advance. Assessing Luffy and then Robin, Aokiji remarked, "Looks like you've made some good friends! But—you're still you, Nico Robin!"
"No, I'm not the same girl you remember!" Robin gritted her teeth, asserting her transformation.
Before meeting Logan and the Straw Hat Pirates, Robin might have admitted to being the "bad luck" Aokiji mentioned, but now... She had begun to comprehend the true meaning of being a crewmate.
In the midst of integrating into the crew, Robin had gradually begun to regard this place as her home, especially with Logan's presence. Now, she was willing to risk her life to resist anyone who aimed to deprive her of this newfound sense of belonging.
"Resistance is futile," Aokiji remarked lightly, stepping forward and initiating an attack with his Ice Age.
However, before the icy blast could hit Robin, another surge of cold air clashed with Aokiji's technique, resulting in a massive ice burst that shattered the surrounding ice.
Observing the unexpected interference, Aokiji narrowed his eyes and directed his attention to the man standing beside Robin – Logan.
The Marine Admiral recognized him, slightly relieved. "Ah, the deputy head of the Straw Hat Pirates and a mangaka. Logan, right?"
Logan shrugged casually. "Is it an honor to be remembered by a Marine Admiral?"
Aokiji raised an eyebrow. "What arrogance."
"If you wish to continue, we're ready to accompany you. But understand this: You won't take Robin away from us, no matter what!" Logan's declaration prompted the Straw Hat Pirates around to prepare for battle.
Impressed by the pirates' determination, Aokiji hesitated and questioned, "Do you trust Nico Robin so implicitly? What I mentioned is true – all the organizations she joined have met their demise!"
Logan considered for a moment, rubbing his chin before smiling. "Since you're asking that question, let Robin answer it!"
Encouragingly, he looked at Robin, displaying his unwavering support. "Robin, tell him!" Luffy gestured enthusiastically, urging her on.
Nami approached, holding Robin's arm to show her solidarity without words. Chopper and Usopp assisted Sanji, casting supportive glances at Robin. Despite the freezing temperature, the trust exuded by her crewmates warmed Robin's heart.
Taking a deep breath, she gazed firmly at Aokiji and proclaimed, "Thank you for sparing my life! I remember you mentioned that you wanted to see what Saul protected, what fruit the fallen seed would bear."
"Now, I declare...!! I, Nico Robin, vow here! The Straw Hat Pirates are the last crew I'll ever join, and I will never betray them!"
"and Our captain, Luffy..." With that said, Robin looked at Luffy. Luffy seemed to realize something, and grinned happily Then heard Robin yelling: "He is the man who is going to be The Pirate King!!"
Capítulo 140: Chapter 140
When Robin shouted this sentence, Luffy raised his hands excitedly: "That's right!! I, Monkey D. Luffy! I am the man who will become the Pirate King!!~"
Aokiji pondered for a moment, then pursed his lips: "To be honest, I shouldn't believe what a person like you said. But this time, I think what you said is very true"
Luffy immediately yelled, "Even he believe in me-!!"
"That's right!!" Logan took a step forward, facing Aokiji, "Actually, what she said whether its truth or lie, you don't need to care about it. The important thing is, we all trust her!!"
Aokiji was a little unhappy: "Since I don't need to care, why do you let her answer it for me?"
Logan smiled: "Because you let her live, in a sense, you are also the benefactor of our Straw Hat Pirates! Out of respect for the benefactor."
"Hey, hey, kid...! Are you serious? It was just a temporary decision of mine, it's not about kindness, and it has nothing to do with your Straw Hat Pirates."
Aokiji shake his head, saying that there is no need to care about this matter
"No matter what you think, but we must thank you for allowing Robin to survive and allowing us to have such a good crewmate!!" Logan insisted
Aokiji didn't want to argue anymore, but followed Logan's words, and said lightly, "Since this is the case, if you want to repay your favor, just give me Nico Robin"
"impossible!!!"
"We will never give you Robin!!"
"Don't take Robin away!!"
"Even if you are Marine Admiral, we will not compromise!!"
"My 80 million men are already in place, don't think you can do whatever you want just because you are Marine Admiral!!"
Aokiji's words were immediately opposed by the Straw Hat Pirates.
Aokiji spread his hands: "So..., this is how you treat your benefactors?"
"Ah I'm sorry..., actually..." A strange expression appeared on Logan's face, and he looked at Aokiji, "That..., actually, we didn't want to repay the favor at all"
This group of small talk is going to choke people to death!!
"Okay, it seems that I was thinking too much..."
The corner of his mouth twitched, Aokiji looked at Robin: "Let me just believe you for a while."
"However... you Mangaka, what ability did you use just now? If I judge correctly, it seems to be similar to ice-ice Fruit?"
Aokiji asked out the doubts in his heart just now.
"Oh, is this what you mean?" As soon as Logan stretched out his palm, a bitter cold air appeared in his hand.
Afterwards, he also imitated Aokiji's way of pulling up a grass and throwing it up.
Ka Ka Ka
The cold air instantly condensed into an ice sword.
"It's so similar to by ability!!!" Seeing Logan's actions, Aokiji couldn't calm down anymore.
As an ability user of Ice - Ice Fruit, he always thought that his ability was unique in this world.
But at this time, the same ability as him appeared in front of him, how can this not make Aokiji feel a sense of urgency???
Suddenly, Aokiji asked suspiciously: "What is your Devil Fruit ability?"
As soon as Aokiji finished speaking, Luffy couldn't wait to shout out: "Logan is a manga fruit User."
"Stupid! You exposed our information!!" Zoro, Nami, and Usopp shouted at the same time.
"Ah~?"
Luffy shrank immediately
"Manga fruit~?" Aokiji frowned, and the doubts in his heart became more serious, "Then why can you use the ability of Ice Ice Fruit...?"
"That is.....…"
Luffy was about to say something when Usopp pounced on him and gagged his mouth with a shoe.
"No no no..."
Luffy hesitated, seeing Zoro approaching, suddenly shouted indistinctly, "Zoro..., help me..., oh..."
Then, he saw that Zoro also took the initiative to cover Luffy mouth
"It's okay to tell you, this is actually Haki's ability!" Seeing that the only guy who usually spew his ability has been sanctioned, Logan can also happily activate his bullshitting ability.
Of course Aokiji wouldn't believe it.
"I know you don't believe it! But the fact is like this. On the basis of Haki, I use my Devil Fruit ability to change something, and then i can practice Haki with added freezing effect"
"It's just that this kind of upgraded Haki is like a genetic mutation, not everyone can learn it. Even the probability of learning this kind of Haki is lower than the probability of getting Devil Fruit!!!"
Since you want to give false information, then make the false information more believable...
"In other words, this ability is only available to you?"
Aokiji understood.
According to the other party, this is a variant of Haki.
Armament Haki can give the human body the ability to attack and defend, then this upgraded version can give the human body the ability to freeze~
But is that possible?
Logan spread his hands: "That's not true, our crewmates are all geniuses, except me, Nami can also do it"
When it's time to cooperate with Logan's performance, Nami will certainly not turn a blind eye...
"Thanks to Logan, I too can practice frozen Haki" Nami smiled, and secretly communicated the magic power of the Clow Card The Freeze Card, and then stretched out her little hand
Ka Ka Ka Ka!!!!
The bitter cold instantly froze the ground under her feet.
puff!!--
Aokiji suddenly couldn't accept it
The appearance of another person with the Ice Ice Fruit ability already left him speechless.
Now another one pops up....
If, as he said true, and more people practice frozen Haki, wouldn't my Ice Ice Fruit ability be useless???
"Wait" Suddenly, Aokiji's gaze showed suspicion, and he stared at Logan: "Actually, this is not a frozen Haki at all is it, but a deception made by your manga-manga fruit... Right?"
"How can you say that! You already asked me, and I told you, but you still doubt me? Do you want me to prove it to you?" Logan complained a lot.
But Aokiji thought it was Logan's avoidance, so he pouted: "If you can, I don't mind you proving it."
"I don't want to prove it!" Logan directly refused.
"If you prove it to me, then I will let Robin live and let all of you go" Aokiji insisted on Logan's proof.
After all, he really wants to find out whether there is such a thing as frozen Haki in this world!!
oh?
Hearing what Aokiji said, Logan became interested.
After all, Aokiji's kindness to Robin is real.
Although he just said confidently that he had no intention of repaying his favor, he understood that for Robin, when she faced Aokiji, she would always feel guilty.
But if this kindness can be repaid, then for Robin, she can rest her mind out of this situation once and for all.
"Okay!! Then I'll prove it to you!!" Immediately, Logan readily agreed.
"Hold on." Logan entered the yurt house not far away, and called the old man Tonjit out of the tent.
"You were here just now, presumably when Luffy was chatting with the old man, you also heard that the old man was left behind by the tribe's because he was stuck on stilts for 10 years?
Logan looked at Aokiji and asked.
Aokiji nodded: "I heard it when I was sleeping here just now. The people of his tribe should have migrated to the next island. If he waited for the annual tide to go out to catch up, it would take at least three years. ."
"That's good I'll show you an ice age now..." With that said, Logan walked to the edge of the sea, and thrust his palm into the water!!
"Ice Age!!__" The name of the skill is casually yelled, as he copy Aokiji
When the ability of Clow Card to freeze cards is released...
Ka Ka Ka Ka!!
they saw that the entire sea was instantly frozen
f**k!!
Aokiji opened his mouth wide.
He is a Ice-Ice Fruit Devil Fruit User and has a very strong Observation Haki. He instantly sensed that the Ice sea has been freezing all the sea water between the nearest islands.
certainly...
Aokiji is sure that the reason why Logan only froze the sea water between the islands is not that his ability is limited to this, but because he think its enough for Tonjit to catch up with his tribe"
Tonjit was stunned!
"Am I dreaming...?" He looked at the sea in disbelief, shocked, "It changed into a Ice land...!"
Logan smiled: "Old man, the sea water will freeze for about a week, just walk slowly. However, it may be a little cold"
Tonjit was excited, and he cheered: "Shelly, we can cross the sea, and we can meet the villagers. I haven't seen them for a year!!"
He held Logan's hand tightly: "Thank you, thank you so much!!!"
Afterwards, he couldn't wait to run back to organize his luggage and carriage.
Logan looked at Aokiji: "I think..., have I proved it?"
Aokiji took a deep breath, and nodded slowly, "I didn't expect that there really is a Haki comparable to Ice Fruit... Well, the matter capturing killing Robin for today has been cancel!!"
Hearing this, Robin's eyes turned red
