Chapter-22

—----------------

"Yes" Robin replied to Yoriichi's question with a very confident tone since she was very sure there wasn't any other person in this world left alive who could read Ancient language

"Fine," Yoriichi said as he finally agreed to her request while he pats Ember who was on his lap

He only agreed to her request because he felt that if by doing this he could save lives then he sure would do it

Not only that but Yoriichi is able to understand that she knows alot about the world than himself after hearing her

If she goes with him then she can also teach him about the current world which will surely help Yoriichi in his journey

'That's it?' Robin inwardly asked herself unconsciously in her mind because she didn't expect to convince Yoriichi this easily

"So when will we be leaving?" Robin asks awkwardly Yoriichi because she really doesn't want to stay here any longer because the more longer she stays here the more danger about crocodile knowing her betrayal

Even though she wants to stay and know more about the Poneglyph which is here but her life is more important

Even though she believes in Yoriichi's strength but still she has doubts about whether he can beat the crocodile or not since to her, crocodile is untouchable

It's not just her thinking but Crocodile make sure to convince all of his subordinates to think that he is untouchable, so nobody could betray him

And since there are also many more Poneglyph out there in the sea she needed to know about

Yoriichi started to tell her about the location where his ship and also told him about the purpose for stopping here

But since they both needed to leave soon, Robin suggested she would take him to the nearest safe island where he could buy supplies as Yoriichi agreed to her suggestion

...

Next morning…

"Shall we go now?" Robin asked Yoriichi who was meditating since she needed to hurry up and leave this island before the crocodile noticed her betrayal

Robin already expected that Crocodile might started to notice this by now and that they needed to hurry and leave this island

Yoriichi nodded his head as he stood up since he also understood her worries and with him, ember flapped her wings as if trying to tell that she was also ready too

Immediately the next moment, Sakura leaves petals gathered on the wall beside yoriichi making a hand that is offering him his sword

Yoriichi was a little surprised by this even though he knew about devil fruit, but he still became surprised about the fact anyone can get supernatural ability as long that person eats one

Even though Rayleigh didn't tell him about the outside world but did tell him about devil fruit since it was important, so he also taught him about how to counter Devil fruit users

But hearing about this and witnessing it personally, it's a totally different matter which is also the reason for yoriichi being surprised and even though it may sound tempting but Yoriichi knows such power must come with a cost and thats the reason yoriichi doesn't want that kind of power

"I was just inspecting your sword because it seems my previous boss wants to steal this for some reason," Robin said with a small smile on her face, since previous she thought Crocodile was interested in Yoriichi's bounty but it seemed she was wrong because

And from yesterday's events, she came to understand that Crocodile was more interested in Yoriichi's swords than yoriichi himself

That's why she checked Yoriichi's sword but unfortunately, no matter how much power or force she put in, she couldn't able to take the blade out of its sheathed

This is weird because she saw Yoriichi taking out the blade very easily which makes her question if yoriichi is physically too strong or if she is just weak.

Hearing Robin's statement, Yoriichi didn't say anything even though he himself knew there was something special with the sword because he heard this sword calling for him when he first held it

After taking the sword, yoriichi and Robin go out the whole ember flying and guiding them from the sky as they started moving to travel towards the ship

And since Robin is just a normal human, Yoriichi needed to slow down because of her otherwise he might reach back to ship in just 2 days

After 3 hours of walking…

They found a small cave and decided to rest there even though yoriichi didn't need rest but Robin needed it before continuing to move

And it's not her fault since today is sun is more brighter and hotter than normal days which is problematic not only for her but any normal human

The only Exceptional human probably is Yoriichi in this world because he is just a natural-born superhuman who can run in the desert for days before getting actually tired

Unfortunately, the Area they are currently in, it's totally isolated and that's the reason Yoriichi couldn't ask any creatures for help

Phew~

"It's sure helpful to move with that cutie," Robin said as she hadn't finished drinking water and got refresh

She said this because they can move without being lost in this huge desert due to ember

"Phe~" Ember becomes excited after getting complimented as she looks at her master and wishes he would also compliment her

As Yoriichi understood her, Yoriichi touched her head and started to stroke gently which Ember really enjoyed and became very happy

Fortunately, they currently have water but the food is the problem because none of them has food and that's the reason Yoriichi might need to do that thing he hates the most which is hunting
