12. The Limit Of Talent Is No Limit!

"Huh? Trash..."

Hearing Rob's words, Mosca's expression froze, and then a fierce look appeared on his face:

"A mere brat, how dare you scold me? I am going to crush you today... No, wait a second, you little brat looks so cute, I will sell you to nobles with special hobbies!"

"And your..."

Sa—

Before Mosca could finish his vile words about Robin, Rob's figure leapt from the small sailboat, reaching Mosca in an instant.

At this moment, Rob was ready to kill.

Mosca's aura was weak, but his murderous intent was strong. The clear malice indicated that the blood on this guy's hands was definitely that of civilians!

The 8 million berries bounty was likely due to massacring civilians. Otherwise, with his strength, in this era when bounties haven't inflated, 1 million berries would suffice.

And it seems that the other party is also involved in human trafficking!

Such a villain—

There is only one way to deal with him: elimination!

So when Rob attacked, he went all out to kill!

"Octopole Collapse!"

He thought.

Rob's fist slammed down on Mosca's head. The powerful force and the internal shock instantly exploded Mosca's body into pieces of flesh.

Along with it—

Boom!

The pirate ship, which wasn't small, shook violently and suffered irreparable damage.

With Mosca killed in one punch, Rob didn't stop there and went straight to eliminate his crew.

After a minute, the pirate ship, unable to withstand the devastation, slowly began sinking. Most of the pirates had been dealt with by Rob. Any who felt murderous intent were gone.

Glancing at the few remaining crew members, Rob frowned:

"You guys are not guilty for the time being!"

After another look back, Rob returned to his small sailboat.

He didn't like meddling in other people's business and generally wouldn't act, but once he did, he aimed to solve the problem perfectly within his abilities and completely eliminate any danger.

The Hound Pirates were indeed weak, but Rob still chose to go all out.

As for the few survivors, Rob didn't sense any malice or bloody aura from them, so he spared them.

He wasn't a nice guy, but he wasn't a senseless executioner either.

"Oni-chan!"

Seeing Rob return, Robin stepped forward, her face showing some timidity.

A soft smile appeared on his face as he touched Robin's head.

"Are you scared?" he asked.

Robin shook her head firmly:

"I'm just worried that Oni-chan will get hurt!"

Tap—

Rob gently tapped Robin's head.

"They can't hurt me! Get used to this kind of thing. In the future, we will encounter more powerful and fierce enemies on the sea! There are some people in this world who don't need any reason to attack others!"

"There is some malice that needs no excuse!"

Hearing this, Robin nodded.

Robin nodded thoughtfully, taking Rob's words to heart. She was still young, and because of Rob, she hadn't experienced much, so she had very little understanding of the complexity of human beings!

But during the half month of going to sea, Robin still felt the danger of the sea more or less.

At the same time, Robin also knew how good her Oni-chan was.

Together, the two children walked directly into the small town of Keluoluo, and the people around looked at Rob in awe. This little boy, who looked only seven or eight years old, had slaughtered a pirate group!

It sounded as unbelievable as a fantasy, but the survivors of the Hound Pirates, slowly sinking into the bottom of the sea and running to the coast, told everyone that it was true!

"Those two kids... are amazing!"

"A monster!"

"Follow him and you'll be able to sail freely on the sea!"

"I've decided! I'm going to board that lord's ship!"

"..."

The waves in the port grew bigger and bigger.

But Rob, walking into the town, didn't care at all. His ship might have more manpower, but it definitely wouldn't include these guys who had no ability or just wanted to use his power to do evil!

Together with Robin, the two first went to the bookstore in Keluoluo, where they bought useful books on navigation, ship repair, basic medical knowledge, and more.

Then Rob took Robin to the weapon shop in Keluoluo.

Finally, under the shopkeeper's guidance, he bought a suitable one-handed straight sword of relatively tough quality.

It was time to have a weapon of his own.

For the past half month, Rob had used his fists and physical skills to solve battles. It was clean, convenient, and brutal enough, but it lacked a bit of elegance!

So Rob decided to get himself a weapon.

Let his fighting become a little more elegant.

Ding—

With a flick of the blade of the straight sword in his hand, Rob spun the blade like a flower, then sheathed it.

"That's it! I'll use this temporarily, and when I get the best steel, I'll learn sword casting techniques and make myself a weapon that can grow with me!"

With his third talent, learn and know, Rob's ambitions began to grow.

Where the limit of this talent was, he hadn't touched it at all. Maybe the limit of this talent was no limit!

It had been half a month since he started developing his talent. As long as he calmed down and learned something, he could continuously master whatever he wanted, even anything!

It was as if by reading that inheritance handbook, he had raised his sword art realm to the level of a swordsman.

Given two days, Rob was sure he could master swordsman-level swordsmanship. Going further would require his own comprehension. (T/N: There is no official levels of swordsman)

But it wasn't a big problem.

With his talent, he was confident that within a year, he could reach the top of the world in physical skills, swordsmanship, and Haki. The rest would be up to his rapidly growing body.

Not only that, but Rob also wanted to supplement his sailing knowledge and medical knowledge and learn some shipbuilding skills. Only in this way could he sail the Grand Line better!

When sailing on the sea, strength was the most important thing, but other knowledge and equipment were also essential!
