7 Ch 7 : Nico Robin

"!!????"

The atmosphere was filled with silence when Rain said those words.

Too weak that they didn't even deserve to be killed..

Were they after all, no better than an ant in the eyes of this man?

That thought flashed for a bit in the mind of Mr. 5 and Ms. Valentine.

Still, they didn't linger on it too much.

The enemy was kind enough to let them go on with their lives, so they obviously wouldn't want to stay here any longer.

Rain saw that Mr. 5 was willing to surrender and he proceeded to drop him down.

The two agents then said their apologies and thank you to Rain, before the two immediately scrammed away, afraid that Rain would change his mind.

Seeing the two agents leave, Rain also sighed with relief.

The attack just now had almost gone past his limits, and it would only do no good to him if they weren't scared of the act.

He waited for the two to get away from his sight before Rain slumped down on the ground.

Heck, the battle just now was really bad for his heart.

Rain was just a normal university student before he transmigrated here, so it was normal if he hadn't been able to adapt to this world mentality yet.

'Damn.. the other transmigrator would certainly laugh at me if they saw me like this…'

Reading a lot of FF or transmigrations stories before, the protagonist could quickly adapt to the bloodbath, or even turned into a cold-blooded killer shortly after their transmigration.

Rain thought he would also be able to do the same, but only after he transmigrated here that he know something like that was entirely impossible.

Let's not say about killing people. It was still a question of whether Rain would not puke when he saw blood for the first time.

Rain was still calming his heart by sitting on the ground, but unnoticed to him, a beautiful woman with tanned skin was watching him full of interest.

This beautiful woman had already taken some interest in Rain from the moment he left the rebel camp, but after repelling the two high-ranked agents and seeing the current condition of Rain, her interest couldn't help but grow to a whole new level.

The beautiful woman saw Rain was still lying on the ground with no intention of noticing her. Therefore, she let out a chuckle to gain Rain's attention.

"*Chuckle* If the two agents could see your current state, I don't know whether they would cry or laugh!"

"!???"

Rain heard the voice and immediately turned his head, where he saw a beautiful woman in tanned skin.

She wore a revealing cowgirl outfit consisting of a purple cleavage-exposing corset and matching miniskirt, both with white ornaments hanging from them, and a white fur-lined coat paired with a white cowboy hat and white high-heeled boots.

It wasn't hard for Rain to recognize the identity of the other party.

'Nico Robin….'

Yup, it was none other than Nico Robin, one of the original crewmates of Strawhats. She heard about Rain from the spy of baroque works, and she took a great interest in this man who came out of nowhere.

Rain tried to hide it, but the shock on his face was seen by Nico Robin.

All the years of running away and hiding had made Nico Robin very sensitive to the change of human expression, and it was the same case with Rain.

She saw Rain's expression turned into one of shock and familiarity when he saw her, and a frown appeared on her face.

"Hmm.. Have we met each other before?"

".... "

Rain was left agape at this time. He knew that Nico Robin had detected the change in his expression, and it would only be futile if he tried to lie his way through her.

However, there's no other way. He could reveal to Nico Robin that he was a transmigrator right?

Rain gritted his teeth as he entered his con-artist mode once again.

"Have we met each other? I don't really know. After all, you won't be able to remember the face of every ant you meet in the road, right?"

Rain decided to take a bet this time. He just hoped that Nico Robin would be offended by his words and decided to just leave him alone.

Nico Robin was different from the other Strawhats. If he could, he really wanted to get away from this woman.

She was way too smart, and Rain wasn't confident that he could hide his identity if he was with Nico Robin.

Still, things usually don't progress like your expectations.

Contrary to what Rain hoped, Nico Robin didn't get offended at all by Rain's words and instead just chuckled as she stood up to sit next to him.

"Hey, can I sit here?"

Said Nico Robin as she displayed a charming smile at Rain.

'Frozen hell, sit here my ass!! Just go away. You are a master of reading people, right? So why can't you see the mood? I'm obviously not receiving you here!!'

Still, there's no way Rain could say things like that.

He needed to keep his disguise in front of Nico Robin, and for that, he just snorted and nodded.

Nico Robin saw Rain didn't give any objection and she smiled as she sat next to Rain.

A beautiful woman and man sitting so closely under the night, it was such a dreamy scene for every other man out there, but for Rain, he really just wanted to chase away Robin.

'Hiks, can you please just leave me alone?'
