"Poison? They have quite the underhanded methods." Robin said. "We might have died very horribly with blood coming out of our pores if Luffy didn't help us."
"Robin, you are the last person to say that. If anyone here who baths on poison it's you." Ken said as she reminded her of her character.
"Well. Since they had attacked us we should now definitely walk in." Ken said as he walked in followed by others. Luffy after emitting away the poison felt more hungry.
"I want food." Luffy said.
"You just ate a dragon."
Meanwhile, when Caesar saw through the cameras he was taken aback and for the first time he felt a bit of fear. But then he remembered that who he was serving and who had his back. He was a scientist and in no way he was going to let the invasion slide away.
He immediately called up Law and commanded
"Law, the Straw Hats are here. Go and take care of them." Caesar didn't know that Law had already met the Straw Hats and had made an alliance. He had done so in the most discreet way possible and thus nobody knew.
"Caesar.. I am not your servant that I will hear your words and I am already trying to deal with the Navy that is going to arrive."
"Navy?" Caesar was taken aback as he wasn't expecting Navy to come. He clicked on some of the monitors and noticed that a G5 ship was coming inland through the small river that went through the island.
"G5? What are they doing here? Where is Vergo?" Caesar asked.
"Go and ask him." Law said and he didn't care about the words of Caesar. After thinking for a second, he called Monet.
"Monet, the Straw Hats are here. Go and take care of them."
"Straw Hats? Are you sure that I can handle them?" Monet, one of the members of Doflamingo crew, one with the logia of snow fruit, knew who Straw hats were and had seen them in videos in the Paramount War.
Though Doflamingo outrightly never said it, everyone could tell that he didn't want to have any kind of relationship with the Straw Hats. Maybe it was subconscious fear of him that made him not talk of Straw Hats, but one could definitely see that.
So she wasn't sure she could handle them.
"I am not asking you to fight them. I am asking you to go and stop them interfering in the matters. Also ask Vergo to be on the lookout." Caesar said while laughing a bit. Monet nodded and thus in her harpy form flew away.
Ken and others soon passed by a huge brightly lit room. The room looked like a huge kindergarten. But the huge room was empty.
"They seem to take well care of the kids." Jinbe said as he looked around. But they are yet to find any kids.
"Having a good place doesn't mean they are taking well care of everything." Robin said. Ken meanwhile was listening to everything around and also heard that the G5 was here. After going through some of the rooms they finally came across a huge room which had children.
And the size of the children surprised everyone, but they thought it was because they were the children of the giants. Robin came forward and talked with them but as she started talking with the children, suddenly some of the side doors opened and came out many men in full HazMat suit with masks.
They had weapons on their hands.
"You step away.. Or I will shoot."
They all pointed their guns at Robin and others. The children got scared and back away. Robin who had been talking with them and trying to be all friends with them slowly turned her head and looked at the men in suit. She was angry. Though she had been here for few minutes she could see that the children were well mannered, filled with life and cute. And Robin had a huge weakness for being cute.
So once she saw the men coming out with guns. It kind of triggered her.
"Children.. Can you turn away?"
The children were confused and didn't know what to say but protested a bit. Robin replied, "I know that you want to see but violence is something that children shouldn't see." And Robin had spoken those words almost like a vey strict mother which made the children fear her a bit and thus turn their head.
"Come with us.. Master wants to meet you." One of the men said.
"You shouldn't have threatened us in front of children."
"What? Whatever.. Just come with us if you want to live." Another man said and everyone pointed guns at the four men. Jinbe, Ken and Liffy didn't react at all because they could Robin was going to take care of them. And that she did.
In the next moment, a huge black colored circle adorned with designs that looked demonic and devilish appeared under her.
"What?"
"What is this?"
Robin's once flowing, silken hair darkens to an inky black, cascading in wild waves down her back. Her eyes, once warm and comforting, now gleamed with an unsettling scarlet glow, like twin orbs of malevolent intent. Her skin took on a porcelain-like paleness. Her attire underwent a dramatic shift as well. Her once modest clothing was replaced by a flowing, ebony robe that billowed around her frame, seemingly woven from shadows themselves.
Her hands now bore sharp, ebony claws that glinted with a deadly sheen, extending from her fingertips like the talons of a fearsome beast. She had extra features on her body at this point. She had wings on her back and a tail. These wings exuded an aura of absolute dominion.
"The Government once proclaimed and said that I am a demon. So here I am.. An actual demon.. Dereshishshishi..." The environment definitely dropped by ten degrees or so, because everyone felt cold as they saw Robin in her new form.
