Ch 6 : Meeting Robin

After the useless steal, Rei and Vivi continued their journey.

It was only during midnight that the two eventually reached a pretty big town where Rei and Vivi booked a hotel room for them to rest.

As for the money, Rei had used his steal-steal Fruit ability to steal some money from a rich-looking guy that he had encountered in the town.

It was also during this moment that Rei got to realize that his steal-steal fruit stealing chance seemed to have a correlation with the luck of the other side.

The more lucky the other side is, the worse his chance to get a better item.

Still, in the end it all worked for them, and the two could enjoy a good night's rest in the hotel.

. . . . . .

The very next day, Rei and Vivi went outside of the town.

Rei wanted to try his Lightning Dragon Slayer ability, while Vivi, on the other hand, just didn't want their existence to pose some harm to the citizens.

They didn't know when the Baroque Work agent would come to them, and if it came to it, she didn't want their battle to be happening in the middle of the town.

Rei was practicing in the middle of the desert while Vivi was watching him absent-mindedly.

Form throwing some punches, discharge, and even some small moves that incorporate Lightning in his move, Rei really used this time to find the limit of his Lightning Dragon Slayer ability.

At this time, Rei was finally able to see his weakness.

Even though the lightning dragon slayer ability was strong, because of the nonexistent magic here, it was replaced by physical abilities.

And it was the reason why Rei had fainted last time. Because there was no magic, the consumption of the ability was doubled, and such a big move was not something that the current Rei could handle.

Rei's current body was actually stronger than even a strong man from the earth. However, with the standard of One Piece World, it could be said that he was a cannon-fodder.

Rei and Vivi were still enjoying their time together, but without them knowing, the danger was eyeing them.

Standing a bit far from them, a beautiful lady was wearing an all-purple cowgirl look.

She was a tall and slender young woman with shoulder-length black hair, which was none other than Nico Robin.

Nico Robin, after knowing that Vivi's identity was discovered quickly came to find news about them, where she eventually found something interesting.

Vivi's companion was able to one-shot Miss DoubleFinger. If she didn't see the report with her own eyes, she would definitely not believe it.

Robin actually didn't want to have anything to do with them, but when she heard the Crocodile was about to send a lot of agents after them, she decided to take a look and, if she could, warn them.

Watching from afar, Robin clearly showed some interest in Rei.

This guy had a lot of potentials. Still, it was a bit far if he was to challenge Crocodile now.

If she could, she really wanted to tell Rei and Vivi to get away as soon as possible from here and only come back when they were sure for revenge.

A few minutes passed, and Robin eventually decided to reveal herself.

She walked toward Rei and Vivi, full of confidence with that iconic smile on her face.

" Princess Vivi, It seems that we are fated to meet here!"

Said Robin to Vivi, who now has a horrified look on her face.

To Vivi, she didn't really know the actual stance of Robin, and thought that Robin was the right-hand of Crocodile.

Now that Crocodile was their enemy, Robin should come here to finish them off, right?

Only Rei was a bit calm here. He knew that Robin should not pose an ill intention toward them, but for her to reveal herself, there should be a hidden meaning here.

Then it hit Rei..

' Damn, do the other agents already discover our location?'

Just like Vivi, Rei now had a frown on her face.

But for Robin, Rei's reaction was very different from her expectation.

She couldn't see any trace of wariness toward her in Rei's eyes, and it made her feel strange.

In this strangeness, Robin decided to try something.

She crossed her hand, and a pair of slender arms appeared on Rei's body, trying to strangle him.

But just when the arm was about to strangle him, Robin suddenly retracted the arms back.

"Discharge!!!!"

A good choice for Robin. She had seen there was something wrong with Rei and immediately retracted her arms. If not, she would certainly be pained from Rei's discharge just now.

The situation turned very tense after Robin's attack, as the two sides were both wary of each other.

But just when Robin thought that Rei would counterattack, Rei really did something that made her think that Rei really knew something.

He didn't fight back but instead, drag Vivi's hand and brought the two of them on top of Karoo, running away with their all.
