Chapter 311 Ace: Don’t challenge Wood if you don’t have enough strength
To be honest, over the years, Robin has worked hard in various aspects in order to win over Wood.
Regardless of appearance, figure or other aspects, Robin feels that she is still very competitive among the women Wood knows.
But even so, in the past ten years or so, Robin has tried many times for free, but has been rejected again and again, which makes Robin feel a sense of frustration.
For a certain period of time, Robin even wondered whether Wood was not good in some aspects. He once secretly and openly went to Cigu Island, a major medical country, with him for a vacation.
However, by chance, Robin learned that Wood was not incompetent, but simply had no ideas for himself!
As Wood's personal secretary, Robin is usually inseparable from Wood during daily business trips and other situations.
However, one of Wood's business trips coincided with the most important part of the translation work. In order to avoid lagging behind in the factory's operation progress, Uncle Ruth accompanied Wood on the business trip.
Later, Robin learned that the person Wood and Russ went to meet at that time was the Golden Emperor Tezolo.
As the richest man in the sea, Tezzolo even built the world's largest gold-selling city. When his benefactor came to visit, he would naturally not treat Wood badly.
And after that business trip, Russ, who accompanied him, often boasted to other people on the ship that the golden city built by Tezzolo was a good place.
The place is not only rich and luxurious, but also has more beauties indulged in the sex industry than other places. On that day, Talus fought three dancing girls alone.
However, despite being as powerful as Tarrus, in the end he was still no match for their young and powerful captain Wood, who could kill ten dancers by himself and throw away their armor!
Good guy, I don't know if this is a good thing. When Robin knew that Wood was not incompetent, but that he just had no idea about her and would rather take advantage of the dancers outside than take advantage of himself, Robin became angry.
In the end, under Robin's "forced confession", Ruth decisively chose to betray Wood and revealed the truth in order to avoid suffering the same fate as Rosinandy.
In fact, Tarrus only wanted one dancer, and Wood only had three opponents, not ten as outrageous...
Of course, these are not the point at all. The point is that Robin knows that Wood is not incompetent, on the contrary, he is much better than ordinary people!
There will be no results if you continue to wait. I have already waited from ten years old to nearly thirty years old. If I wait any longer, I will not be a ripe peach, but a rotten peach.
So after some careful consideration, Robin decided to take the initiative and try to find an opportunity to challenge the overlord!
Wood's daily life is quite boring, and it is impossible to work. He usually either practices or lies down at home, so Robin has never been able to find a suitable opportunity.
However, this time Wood made an unprecedented announcement that he wanted to go on vacation. Although he chose a place like Alabasta, where birds don't shit, Robin naturally couldn't let go of this opportunity.
After confirming that there was no problem with the goods, the people from Baroque Studio settled the payment honestly.
Although their boss is one of the "Shichibukai under the King", he obviously still doesn't dare to refuse the money from the boss of the underground world, not to mention that the real owner is right in front of him, so the people of Baroque Studio are even less courageous.
However, when the delivery of the goods and payment was completed, Mr12 was shocked to find that Wood and Robin had no intention of leaving, and he couldn't help but panic again.
Although he had ruled out the idea of the other party wanting to take advantage of others, Mr12's little heart still couldn't bear the presence of such a big shot beside them.
"Mr. Wood, is there a problem with the payment?" Mr.12 looked at Wood and Robin who were following them with calm expressions on their faces, feeling as uneasy as if they felt like two demons were following them.
"There is no problem with the payment. Rather, your boss is quite generous and even bought our goods at a 5% premium."
Wood's new weapons are very popular. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to get the goods immediately. You can only place an order first.
However, Crocodile obviously planned to fall out with the Alabasta royal family in the near future, so he bought Wood's inventory at a premium of 5%.
"If there is no problem, why do you two keep following us..."
Other people from the weapons company, after receiving the payment and confirming that it was correct, boarded the ship and left.
On the one hand, Robin didn't want others to interfere with her and Wood's vacation, and on the other hand, it was also because the desert environment of Alabasta was really not much different from hell for the fishmen.
"It's very strange for you to say this. Not to mention that Crocodile hasn't conquered Alabasta yet. Even if he successfully occupied this kingdom, would he still be able to prevent me from going to the island?
We have just arrived in Alabasta and are not familiar with the place. What if we get lost in the desert, so naturally we can only follow you before we get to the town."
Since Wood said this, Mr12 naturally couldn't say anything else. After all, even if he had any objections to this, there was nothing he could do to Wood.
The arms can't twist the thighs, not to mention that in front of Wood, they probably can't even be considered arms, at most they can barely be regarded as fingers.
"Wood, I really don't understand. Although Alabasta has unique scenery, there are obviously many other places with better environments in the New World. Why would you choose to go to a place like this for vacation..."
Feeling the scorching hot weather all around and looking at the surrounding environment with nothing but sand, Robin really couldn't figure out why Wood would choose to come to a place like this.
With Robin's IQ, she naturally knew that Wood couldn't really be here for vacation, but she didn't understand that Alabasta was so poor that all that was left was sand, so what was there to gain from such a place?
"So what kind of person do you think Crocodile is?" Wood did not answer Robin's question directly, but asked directly.
"According to our intelligence, Crocodile was also one of the pirates who became famous in his early years. Although before he became the King of the Shichibukai, his bounty was only 81 million beli.
But it is precisely because of this that it proves Crocodile's excellence.
Although we don't know much about Crocodile, as far as I know, Crocodile is a very scheming and ambitious person.
Compared to other pirates who only rely on force, Crocodile is obviously a more dangerous type of pirate."
Although Robin didn't know why Wood asked suddenly, she still told what she knew and her own opinions.
Not just anyone can be a Shichibukai under the King, and the strength of the Shichibukai under the King is not determined by their previous bounties.
Just like the pirate empress Boya Hancock, her original bounty was only 80 million Baileys, but can this be said to be weak?
The Queen of Nine Snake Island, a user with sweet fruit abilities, has even mastered three-color Haki. To put it bluntly, Hancock is one of the strongest even among the Seven Seas of the King.
The lower the bounty when becoming a "Shichibukai", the more it proves that the World Government believes that this pirate has a strong threat and potential.
It is obvious that the function of "The King's Shichibukai" is the policy of the world government to check and balance the four emperors and deter other ordinary pirates. How can it be possible to find just some cats and dogs?
There are many people with higher bounties than Lao Sha and Hancock. Why are they the ones who became the "King's Seven Warriors"? It's because they have the strength and means.
"Since you also think that Crocodile is quite capable and has great ambitions, then why do you think he chose Alabasta.
With Lao Sha's current strength and power, it would be no problem for him to get involved in the kingdoms in the first half of the Grand Line.
Why did he choose Alabasta, which has a harsh environment and is so poor that only sand is left?"
Wood and Robin did not deliberately lower their voices during the conversation, so Mr12 and others on the side also heard it with trepidation.
Low-level members like them knew that their boss behind the scenes was King Shichibukai Crocodile, but it was just a few days ago. They didn't expect to hear other shocking secrets here now.
Mr.12 and others were scared to death, but they were also extremely curious. They also wanted to know what Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords under the King, wanted to see in this desert kingdom.
However, when Mr12 and the others craned their necks to eavesdrop, they discovered that Wood had no intention of continuing, and Robin did not continue to ask questions.
Because there was a guide leading the way, and the Alabasta specialty of running ducks, Wood and his two men soon arrived in Alabasta towns and parted ways with Mr.12 and the others.
Looking at Wood and Robin gradually walking away, Mr12 believed that Wood’s landing on the island must be reported to his boss as soon as possible.
On the other side, the Straw Hat Pirates, after going through some twists and turns, passed through the Small Garden and Drum Island, increased their food reserves, and a cute doctor reindeer also landed on the other side of Alabasta.
When landing in Alabasta, Luffy also met his adopted brother Fire Fist Ace.
Ace went to sea two years before Luffy. He also originally dreamed of becoming the Pirate King, but now he has become the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates.
The brothers haven't seen each other for a long time, and naturally there will be some chatting when they meet again. While chatting, Ace also reminded Luffy not to challenge the well-known strong men in the sea when he is not strong enough, such as
Navy Renegade Wood or something like that...
Ace and Luffy used to be the same, with the same attitude of being the boss in heaven, the second boss in the earth, and the third boss in others.
However, he was so ambitious that the "Heart Pirates" he founded soon encountered one of the strongest pirate groups on the sea, the "Whitebeard Pirates".
The result was undoubtedly that Ace, who was just a new pirate at the time, could not be Whitebeard's opponent.
After being beaten to a pulp by his opponent, Ace was finally impressed by Whitebeard's courage and became the captain of his second division.
When they were in Windmill Village, Ace and Luffy both thought that one day they would be able to defeat those powerful enemies on the sea and finally find the legendary great secret treasure.
However, it was not until he was out at sea that Ace realized that the world was much bigger than he imagined.
And as his knowledge grows, Ace also understands that among those people in the sea who have long been famous, which of them are ordinary people?
Now Ace has become a big fan of Whitebeard. Although he doesn't think Wood is Whitebeard's opponent, it is undeniable that Ace also admits that Navy traitor Wood is the strongest person on the sea today.
One of the individuals.
Even Ace once heard Marco and the others say that the Navy traitor Wood was supposed to be a member of their Whitebeard Pirates, but his father was too slow to take action, allowing the red-haired Shanks guy to take advantage.
.
It was also for this reason that when Father Whitebeard was optimistic about Ace, he took action directly, and he was determined not to play the trick of tempering the younger generation's character.
"Is Wood really as strong as grandpa said before? Even Ace, you are no match for him?"
Walking in the desert and eating desert crab barbecue, Luffy asked vaguely while eating meat.
"It's very strong, even much stronger than what Grandpa said, although I haven't played against him directly.
But the person I am following now has met him face to face. I can only say that I am far from his opponent now, and the same is true for you, Luffy."
Several years of being a pirate had knocked Ace's original arrogance to the ground. At this moment, Ace was worried that Luffy would not know the heights of the world and would challenge a strong man who was beyond his own strength.
Unlike Luffy's situation, it's not unreasonable for Ace's pride to be shattered.
After all, Luffy had just left the Novice Village, and World Mother had been constantly arranging experience packs for Luffy to level up slowly. However, Ace had just left the Novice Village and met a big boss like Whitebeard not long after.
The reason why Ace reminded Luffy was because he was worried that he would challenge an invincible opponent before he had enough strength, and thus lose his life in vain.
After all, not every strong man is a white beard. He will not kill the provocateur but will accept him as his godson.
Ace came to Alabasta this time to pursue the traitorous Blackbeard Teach, so after crossing the desert, Ace parted ways with Luffy and the others.
"Luffy, is your brother very strong? How about we recruit him to join us and let him help us deal with Crocodile, but then we can help him find the traitor in their pirate group."
Although she had only known Ace for a short time, Nami felt that he was much more reliable than their idiot captain, crazy swordsman and pervert cook.
Although Nami is quite confident in the strength of the fighting trio in her pirate group, the more combat power the better.
After all, their opponent is not an ordinary person, but Crocodile, one of the Seven Martial Arts Under the King, and Weiwei has also said that there are thousands of people in Baroque Studio, just their pirate group.
, it is really difficult to control the overall situation.
"Ace is very strong because I have never defeated him.
But this is our pirate group's own business, and we are the ones who promised to help Weiwei, so I will never let Ace get involved."
