No Need to Exist

Although Nico Robin is only a teenage girl now, not only the Marine Headquarters, but also the World government is actually paying attention to her.

Because she was one of the members of Ohara who had touched the inverse scales of the World Government.

It's just that some more important things had happened in the world recently, so they put their main power in other places.

Otherwise, with the power of the World Government, Nico Robin would have been caught easily.

Today's World government may not know that Nico Robin could understand the historical text.

After all, in their eyes, Nico Robin was just an eight-year-old girl.

Who could imagine that a complicated historical text that almost nobody could understand would be understood by an eight-year-old girl?

Mio glanced at Erica and Warwick, and nodded lightly. He walked towards the town on the island, followed by Erica.

Warwick pulled the cloak on his head, hid his face more tightly, and walked in the other direction.

...

In the town.

As Monakop Island was considered to be a relatively famous island in the North Blue and the only way to go to the Grand Line, many merchants come here daily, plus there are hidden pirates here, so the town was very lively.

Just when Mio and Erica stopped at the entrance of an alley, a sturdy man came to Mio, and asked, "Are you Mr. Mio?"

"Well, lead the way." Mio nodded and said directly.

"Yes." The man responded quickly, and then led the way.

A group of people entered the alley and soon came outside a bar.

JOKER Bar

Looking at the name of the bar, Mio raised his eyebrows, but didn't say much. He just followed the man into the bar.

The light in the bar was dim, but there were a lot of guests.

At a glance, the faint bloody smell could be noticed. Mio knew that these people were probably pirates.

"Mr. Mio, the young master is waiting for you in the room." The man pointed to a wooden door next to the front bar while leading the way.

"I see." Mio nodded slightly and pushed the door in.

He saw a small room, but it was full complete facilities and good decorations.

Although the light was dim like the bar, judging from the luxurious soft sofas and the precious carpets on the floor, this should be regarded as a small stronghold that Doflamingo often visits.

"Humhhhhhhh, drink?"

Doflamingo sat on the sofa, holding a goblet with red wine in his hand. He gently shook it, and asked when he saw Mio and Erica coming in.

"Rum, add some ice cubes." Mio said unceremoniously, sitting in front of Doflamingo while Erica sat quietly beside Mio.

Doflamingo took a curious look at Erica, and didn't understand why the woman who was with Mio always wore a cloak, but he didn't ask much.

After he gave a gesture, Trebol turned and left the room.

Before long, he walked in with two glasses of rum and ice cubes were added to it.

Picking up the rum and drinking it in one sip, Mio went straight to the point, "Okay, get the things out quickly."

"Hey, okay." Hearing this, Doflamingo grinned and nodded, snapping his fingers.

There seemed to be a secret door leading to another place in this room.

At this time, the secret door was opened, and Vergo's tall figure walked out from inside.

He was carrying a cage that was wrapped in a black cloth.

With a 'clam,' it was placed on the wine table in front of them, and it looked a little heavy.

"Let's take a look. I think it should be what you want, it won't let you down." Doflamingo gently shook the wine glass in his hand and said slowly.

"Okay." Mio nodded, looking forward to it, and lifted the black cloth.

Suddenly, a glass box appeared in front of Mio's eyes, and the contents of the glass box suddenly surprised Mio.

There was some soil at the bottom of the glass box. A branch was inserted in the soil, and on the branch, a butterfly was resting.

This butterfly was exuding a touch of holy light.

"Does this butterfly have any characteristics?" Mio raised his head to look at Doflamingo and asked curiously.

"Yes." Doflamingo nodded.

He grinned, looked at the butterfly in the glass box, and said in fear, "As far as I know, there is no documented information about this butterfly. It should be an upgraded butterfly."

"A butterfly should be a docile insect, but this butterfly is very combative. At least, I think that all of its kind died in its hands. And the most important thing is the poison of this butterfly."

"Poison?"

"Yes, poison."

Doflamingo said with a sip of red wine, "The ten or so guys under me died because of this little guy's toxins."

"Do you see the light around it? This little guy uses energy like sunlight and moonlight to make poison."

"It cannot use ordinary light to make poison, but once this little guy has absorbed enough sunlight or moonlight, it can spread toxins through the scales on it's wings.

"Although it is not a deadly toxin, it can cause death if it is not treated in time."

"Interesting." Hearing this, Mio couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth, showing an excited smile.

"I'm very interested and satisfied with this thing." Mio covered the glass box with the black cloth and said to Doflamingo.

"Hehhheh, as long as you are satisfied. Although I don't know what you want this thing for, you should pay attention when you take this little guy away."

"If it absorbs enough sunlight, the toxins it spreads will merge into the air and be inhaled by you. The poison of this little guy is hard to detect."

"Don't worry, I won't make fun of my life."

Mio nodded, then said, "I'm leaving North Blue soon and heading to the Grand Line. But I hope that you can continue to help me collect little guys like this."

"Of course, don't forget the Devil Fruits as well."

"Humhhhhhhhhh, that's natural." Doflamingo smiled and nodded.

The two picked up the wine glasses, touched them lightly, and each took a sip.

Mio asked again, "When I came, I saw Marine soldiers in the harbor. Is the Son of Devil really on this island?"

"Yes."

Doflamingo answered this question simply, "According to the news from my staff, the son of devil is on this island."

"Coupled with the lockdown by the Marine branch on this island, it will be difficult for the son of devil to leave in a short time."

"But I don't know where she is hiding now. What? Are you interested?"

"I am a little bit interested." Mio nodded.

Doflamingo looked down at the wine glass in his hand, and spoke indifferently, "If you are interested, I can help you find news about the son of devil, but you have to be prepared. The 80 million bounty can attract many powerful pirate hunters."

"Heh." Mio sneered.

There was no need to say anything more, Doflamingo naturally understood Mio's meaning.

Putting his hands behind his head, Mio sank deeply into the sofa and asked, "Nico Robin is from Ohara. So, the World government should pay attention to her, right?"

"No. They think that she's just a little girl." Doflamingo shook his head and smiled lightly.

Mio felt relieved as he got the answer that he wanted.

If the World government really paid attention to Nico Robin, then he would ignore her.

But now that he got the information he wanted, he didn't have to think about it.

After pondering for a while, Mio picked up the wine glass and drank the rum inside that Trebol had just filled.

Then Mio got up, lifted the glass box, and said, "I'll go now."

"Hehhe, see you next time." Doflamingo looked at Mio's back and smiled evilly.

In response, Mio did not respond.

The two quickly left the room. As the two left, the room fell into silence.

After a while, Doflamingo looked at Trebol and spoke, "Go to Burrow Island in person. Marine and World government already know the situation of the heavenly tribute. If there is no accident, the CP will be sent to investigate."

"The town on Burrow Island is no longer necessary, including the residents there!!"

Doflamingo's eyes flickered with cold light, and his tone was cold and decisive.
