"Head, we can't escape even if we all die, it doesn't matter, but Olivia can't die."
"Yes Chief, find a way to save Olivia."
Several of those who were connected approached the young man, the head of the group.
The young man who was called the head had a nervous expression on his face; the one they were talking about, Olivia, was none other than his wife.
When he went out, he took his wife with him, but a few months ago everything changed, his wife became pregnant, which all his comrades knew about.
But he really did not know what to do, on the one hand, it was his wife, but the other his comrades, how could he ask to release his wife and not ask to release comrades; on the other hand, he felt that the watchman in front of him, as he feared, would not agree.
But this hesitation lasted only a moment, and he no longer cared for the sake of his wife and unborn child.
"This lord watcher, you can arrest me, kill me, I will not resist, but I have a request, spare my wife, she is not a member of the archaeological group, she is not your target, spare her."
"Not a member of the archaeological team? Do you think I'll believe it?"
Naturally, John heard what they had just said, but he did not believe that the woman they were talking about was not a member of the group.
The young man could only say, "My wife, she's really not from the archaeological team, and she's pregnant, please let her go."
"Pregnant?"
John's face was surprised, and his eyes darted to a certain person hanging from a tree, the only woman there.
Looking at her with the will of observation, he heard not one voice, but two: the man did not lie, the woman had another voice in her stomach, and, judging by the sound, the child was on the verge of taking shape, already real life.
"This?"
John never wanted to kill them himself, but he also knew that once he turned these people over to CP9, there was no way they would be alive, but even then, he couldn't blame himself.
Every adult should be held accountable for their actions. The fact that they did this even though they knew it was life threatening means that they thought about the consequences and were prepared for them.
It was their own choice, and John wouldn't feel guilty, not even in front of a pregnant woman.
But listening to the fragile heartbeat and breath of someone who wasn't born, he suddenly felt a little guilty.
It is not for a child to suffer for the mistakes of adults, and if this woman were handed over to CP9, she and the child in her stomach, of course, would not survive.
The life that was to be born plunged John into a state of indecision.
"Damn, would a man like me be merciful?"
Ever since he came into this world, John has always subconsciously told himself that in this cruel world he must be ruthless, and that only if his heart is ruthless enough can he survive.
So even though he still hasn't killed anyone with his own hands, if he had the chance, he certainly wouldn't be soft-hearted.
If you don't kill, then you will be killed!
Although John did not reach this level of self-esteem, he was definitely considered a selfish person and did everything only for his own sake.
The branch that bound the pregnant woman slowly released her, and the first thing the woman did when she was freed was to run to her husband, crying.
"I will make an exception only once, not because you begged for mercy, but for the sake of the child in her belly, I do not want the child to die in the womb before she can open her eyes and see the world; after all, he also went through many reincarnations to come to this world, so at least he should see the world."
I don't know why, but John suddenly had such feelings, in the past he definitely did not believe in talk about rebirth.
But now that he's been reborn, who knows if reincarnation exists, and even if it doesn't, let that be an excuse to convince yourself.
"And I don't know if that's kindness or normal human nature."
"Thank you, thank you".
The man who had just been angry was now only very grateful, realizing that this was the biggest concession John had ever made.
"You only have two minutes, in two minutes, if you haven't left, don't blame me for not letting you go." John warned.
The couple hugged and cried, seeing the strength of John, they resigned themselves to their fate and did not think to resist anymore, it was enough for them that one person survived.
John didn't listen to what they were saying until two minutes had passed, and then looked at the two people.
Seeing John's look, the man's heart sank, and he grunted, "Olivia, go away."
A woman named Olivia was very reluctant to leave her husband, but after thinking about the situation she was in, she gritted her teeth and slowly stepped back, only still looking at her husband with tears in her eyes, knowing that their last meeting.
"Olivia, my child, I came up with a name: Robin, call her Robin."
"Robin?"
It was not the woman who reacted first, but John, who looked incredulously at the couple.
Robin, what a familiar name, everyone who watched One Piece knows this name.
"Robin, could this really be Nico Robin?"
John was very surprised, and then remembered that this couple is from O'Hara, and the rather familiar name Olivia, isn't it Nico Olivia.
Previously, hearing the name Olivia, John did not understand it, but now that the name Robin appeared, it instantly made him convinced of the identity of this woman, as Robin's mother, Nico Olivia.
"What a shock, I almost killed Nico Robin."
Thinking about how this hugely popular Nico Robin, who wouldn't exist in the future if it wasn't for his momentary weakness, John was really overwhelmed with emotion.
Looking at Olivia, who was already leaving, perhaps because of Robin, John suddenly spoke up.
"If you want to live, do not rush to leave this island for now, all ports are already blocked, stay on this island and you will be safe."
It was unclear if the departed Olivia understood, but John didn't care, he did his best, and if they were lucky, Olivia should not be found.
After Olivia left, John gave the archaeologists another warning.
"That woman, pretend she never existed and she's not one of you, if this gets out it won't affect me much, but you and that woman will all be miserable, okay?"
The archaeologists were smart enough to listen to John's words, and they all assured him that they would remain silent.
Shortly thereafter, Peberton arrived with his men and was greatly surprised to learn that John alone had captured all the archaeologists.
