Chapter 42: New Bounties (2)

—----------------

Chapter- 42

—----------------

'!?!' Robin becomes speechless after seeing the newspaper since the headlines on the newspaper were them

Not only that but they got new bounties issued by the Navy, and Yoriichi's bounty got his Bounty from 1.1 Billion to 1.8 Billion with his new photo on the bounty poster

It seems they identified Yoriichi's Childhood bounty and that's why he got an increase in Bounty instead of a new bounty 

Not only that but it seems the Navy has given him a Nickname too which is 'Demonic Swordsman' and Robin felt it's suited for Yoriichi 

Not only due to the big mark on his face  but also because whenever Yoriichi becomes serious then he is scared that anyone can compare him to the devil himself

Robin became more shocked as she read more and found her photo just below  Yoriichi's bounty

Her bounty also increased from 79 Million to 320 million which is an astonishing amount

Seeing this Robin wanted to cry because she didn't do anything from the beginning, but still her bounty got increased this much

She thinks Yoriichi's massive increase in his bounty makes complete sense since he was easily able to overwhelm Admiral which is definitely not a small feat at all

Especially to Robin, who has the image of an admiral in her mind like an undefeatable existence and that undefeatable existence in her mind got easily beaten by  the person in front of her right now

A person who right doesn't give any feeling as he could even hurt fly right now, beat that undefeatable existence in her mind like it's nothing 

But another problem arises in her mind is now the whole world knows that she is working with Yoriichi who is now known by his nickname 'Demonic Swordsman'

Even though Robin already saw this coming but she didn't think this would happen this fast which gives her more worries about her safety 

"Something happened?" Yoriichi asked this with worry as he looked towards Robin who seemed to have a headache after reading the newspaper

Due to his deep understanding of Observation Haki, he could clearly sense a sudden change in emotions in Robin which is why he asked this out of worry for her

"See this" Robin replied to Yoriichi after hearing his question since it's better to let him see this for himself rather than telling him as she handed him the newspaper in her hands

Yoriichi put down the food as he took the newspaper from Robin's hands even though in his childhood, Yoriichi never received any kind of proper education

But thanks to Rayleigh and Shakky, he can now easily read and only because of that he was able to books reading regarding medicines as well as medical practices and able to learn a lot that even calling him a novice doctor won't be incorrect

The only thing stopping Yoriichi from acknowledging himself as a full-fledged doctor is 'experience' since having theoretical knowledge and having Practical Experience are two different things

even though he treated many injured animals on the island where he trained under Rayleigh but Animals are very different from people 

After reading the newspaper, he had the same stoic look on his face but he looked towards Robin and said 'Sorry'

He knows how much Robin tried to warn him multiple times about not getting into any trouble in order to not let themselves exposed to the Navy but still due to him that happened

Even though he won't regret his choices because of his actions he was able to save some lives and if has ever got a chance to go back in time then also he would do the same

He is only sorry for Robin because she told him how much she tried to stay hidden from the Navy due to his actions

Even though he said sorry but no one can tell if he actually is sorry Or not due to his stoic face 

But Robin's face was a little tense due to worries about the future got softer since she knew that Yoriichi really meant what he said because after living with him for all this time 

She came to understand that Yoriichi couldn't express his emotions very well on his face even if he wanted to but he meant every single thing he said and that's why she knew if he said 'sorry' then he really meant it 

And honestly, she doesn't blame Yoriichi for getting in trouble because she come to understand what reason behind his actions which he heard from Yoriichi himself

World knows that Yoriichi openly assaulted Celestial Dragon, not once time but 2 times as well as escaped the navy making him one of the most dangerous criminals in the sea 

But Robin knows the real reason behind such his reckless actions is that he tried to save people from the celestial dragon 

And Robin rather admired his actions because no one dared to imagine doing what Yoriichi did, including herself 

The status of celestial dragons is similar to gods in this world and that's why even disobedience to any celestial dragon order is equal to disobedience to a God which is considered a severe crime

And world government never spared anyone with that crime, the only Expectionals are people with great strength who can directly oppose the World Government 

Yoriichi is one of them even though he might not have a force of his own but his alone strength is so great that he alone is no less than the entire force himself 

"It's alright" Robin replied to Yoriichi with a smile on her face as she told him to not worry about it since she knew it was her own decision to follow Yoriichi 

And hearing an apology from him makes her more guilty because she always thinks of him as a scapegoat in order to save herself from the beginning

Even on that island, she thought of abandoning him when she saw what kind of situation Yoriichi was in
