Chapter 128 – A harem for Arton

Vivi's question had already been anticipated by Nico Robin.

Therefore, as soon as Vivi asked, Nico Robin provided an answer that Vivi could accept.

"For now, you can go to Reverse Mountain."

"If Arton wants to enter the Grand Line, he will definitely pass through there."

"I will use my status to arrange a mission for you to go to Reverse Mountain."

"If later I find Arton's location in East Blue, I will also try to find a way to send you there."

Hearing this, Vivi let out a long sigh of relief.

At this moment, she suddenly felt that allying with the woman in front of her might not be a bad idea.

"I understand. I'll do as you say."

Vivi nodded, and then as if she had thought of something, she suddenly asked Robin:

"By the way, you are Miss All Sunday of Baroque Works, right?"

"If so, you should know the situation of almost all the female agents in Baroque Works, right?"

Robin raised an eyebrow, a smile appearing on her face.

"Are you trying to ask me if there are any other female agents in Baroque Works who also have diary copies?"

Robin smiled.

"Yes! Arton's drawings includes civilians, pirates, and marines. Perhaps any pretty woman could have a diary copy."

"And since he knows about Baroque Works, he should also know about the other beautiful women in Baroque Works."

"I remember there are quite a few women in our organization who fit the criteria."

Vivi said uncertainly.

"Are you looking for them because you want them to ally with us too?"

Nico Robin's smile deepened as she looked at Vivi meaningfully.

"Well, ha, having more allies should increase our chances of getting close to Arton, right?"

Vivi said a bit shyly.

Such behavior was akin to actively seeking a harem for Arton, and she herself intended to become a member of that harem.

As soon as she spoke, Vivi didn't realize the implication of her words.

But when Nico Robin asked, she immediately felt extremely shy.

However, it couldn't be helped, as Vivi knew that the number of women around Arton was increasing.

If there weren't enough allies, she feared she wouldn't be able to catch Arton's eye.

"The senior agents of Baroque Works are all out on missions right now."

"Some of the people I suspect might have diary copies haven't been confirmed yet."

"But don't worry, I will confirm this with them later."

Nico Robin thought for a moment and then said to Vivi.

Then, Nico Robin smiled again:

"But speaking of beauties, the country of Alabasta isn't lacking in them, right?"

"As the princess of this country, don't you know some women who might interest Arton?"

"For example, your maidservants."

"After all, if Arton knows about you, he should also know about the beautiful women around you."

Vivi scratched her cheek, still blushing, and said:

"I... I can't go back to confirm right now."

Robin smiled and said:

"No worries, let's find Arton first."

"For now, you, as Miss Wednesday, should head to Reverse Mountain."

Hearing the serious task, Vivi nodded firmly:

"I understand, Miss All Sunday!"

"That... is the pirate ship of the Buggy Pirates!"

Hina watched the Buggy Pirates' ship approaching and frowned deeply.

After reading Arton's diary.

Buggy no longer seemed like a small-time pirate from East Blue in Hina's eyes.

In her eyes, Buggy now seemed like someone as powerful as the Shiki but hiding his strength for some reason.

"Arton was willing to kill Shiki."

"Yet he doesn't want to kill Buggy. Why is that?"

"Is it because Buggy doesn't intend to destroy East Blue?"

"Or is it because Buggy is Shanks' friend?"

"After all, if he did, Shanks might not allow Uta to be with Arton."

Hina turned to look at the resting Arton and thought silently.

"You better not do anything suspicious, Navy."

"Our eyes will always be on you."

At that moment, Carina noticed Hina's gaze and raised her head to speak to her.

Then she pointed at the diary floating beside her.

"Of course, you too."

Carina looked at Tashigi.

Both Tashigi and Hina fell silent upon hearing this.

Although Morgans' reporter wanted to continue the interview, neither Arton nor Hina and the others were interested anymore.

Then, everyone left the hot air balloon and returned to their ship.

"Arton, earlier we saw floating islands falling from the sky."

"Did you really meet Shiki?"

"I didn't expect you to come back alive."

"So, where is Shiki?"

"Did he escape?"

Buggy asked curiously.

Arton didn't respond and simply pointed to the now cold body of Shiki on the deck.

Buggy stared at the corpse in silence, his expression gradually becoming twisted and fierce, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets.

"Shi, shi, shi, Shiki?!"

"Arton, you really killed Shiki?!"

After a long silence, Buggy shouted at Arton in utter disbelief.

"Is it necessary to be so loud? It's just the body of Shiki."

Arton nonchalantly replied, picking his ear.

"But that's Shiki who fought with Captain Roger, and almost destroyed the entire Roger Pirates."

"How can I not shout?"

Buggy said loudly, slapping his hands on his face
