Chapter 160 - 160 No third person knew of their conversation.
No third person knew of their conversation.
After a good while.
"Lord Robin, may I ask where you learned this? Could it be Nico Ro..."
"I said, I'm just purely curious about Pluton's structure!"
Roland chuckled, interrupting Iceburg.
"The power of the Ancient Weapon Pluton might seem terrifying to you, but in my eyes... it's nothing more than that!"
There was another long moment of silence.
Iceburg took a deep breath and nodded again.
"I understand. I was rude just now!"
If Roland truly coveted the Pluton blueprints.
He wouldn't have casually tossed them aside after seeing them.
Furthermore, through this week of observation, Iceburg could see that Roland was not an ambitious pirate.
Compared to a pirate schemer, he was more like a leisurely traveler, just as his title suggested.
Finally, as the Fifth Emperor of the Sea, Roland's personal power was even above that of the Ancient Weapon Pluton.
"Then, I'll take my leave now... Oh, and one more thing..."
Iceburg, about to turn and leave, seemed to remember something.
"Karifa is an excellent secretary. Although I really want her to stay and continue helping me, everyone has their own aspirations. Since she fell in love with Lord Robin at first sight, I won't stop her from pursuing love. I just hope Lord Robin can protect her!"
As a former boss, Iceburg was not stingy with his concern for his former employee who had resigned.
"In that case, I'll tell you one more special thing. Karifa is a World Government CP9 intelligence agent. Her goal in being your secretary and undercover for many years was exactly what you just told me about. As for whether she has any accomplices, you'll have to investigate that yourself!"
Roland spoke calmly.
"What!!!"
Iceburg's face paled with fright, and he instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
He didn't doubt the authenticity of the information Lord Robin had revealed.
Given Lord Robin's strength and status, there was no reason for him to deceive him.
Moreover, over the years, he had more or less sensed that he was being targeted.
"Thank you for informing me, Lord Robin, I am extremely grateful!"
Iceburg hurried away.
...
Water 7 incident, seventh day.
[Ding-dong]
[Congratulations to Host for obtaining Mythical Pokémon Giratina… Exclusive move Shadow Force — the power to create a different dimension, allowing travel within it]
Roland: "???"
Damn it!
Are you kidding me?
A second ago, he thought he was about to get another super big item.
After all, Giratina is one of the myths of the Pokémon world.
An existence on par with Dialga, the God of Time, and Palkia, the God of Space.
In the end, after all that, all he got was one of Giratina's skills?
However...
A Mythical Pokémon's exclusive spatial skill seems pretty good too.
"That's a shame, but it's alright, the next fish will definitely be bigger!"
A gentle voice suddenly rang out.
It was Shichibukai Tyrant Kuma, who had been observing for a long time, speaking to comfort him.
He only took Roland's change in expression to mean he had lost a big fish.
"Kuma, why do you have time to watch me fish today? Aren't you going to spend time with Bonney? You haven't seen each other in a long time, right!"
Roland raised an eyebrow.
"Bonney is already a girl who can stand on her own, and besides, she's no longer alone. She already has you, the best companions, so even if I'm not by her side, she'll be perfectly fine!"
Tyrant Kuma said with a relieved smile, his gaze as soft as water.
"Oh?"
Roland narrowed his eyes slightly, listening to Kuma's words, he always felt that something was amiss.
"I say, Kuma, you're not still thinking of fulfilling your agreement with the Five Elders, are you!"
"Uh…"
Hearing Roland's question, Tyrant Kuma was stunned.
That was precisely the case; he had never thought of tearing up the agreement he had made with the Government back then.
Keeping his promises was also one of his life creeds.
"I say, are you an idiot?"
Roland rubbed his forehead helplessly, veins throbbing.
"Your agreement with the World Government was based on Bonney's Green Jade Scale. Now that Bonney's illness is completely cured, what else do you have to worry about? Perhaps before, because Bonney was still under the Government's surveillance, it restricted you, but..."
"Now Bonney is our companion, and in this world, no one will ever be able to threaten her again... I can guarantee that! So what are you still hesitating and worrying about? Or have you been tamed and become addicted to being the Government's dog?"
Up until now, Roland had pitied Kuma's difficult life and had taken care of him and Bonney.
But... today, he was truly angered by Kuma's lack of initiative.
"I'm sorry!"
Hearing Roland's angry scolding, Kuma finally came to his senses.
"The person you need to apologize to isn't me. If Bonney knew you died because of her, how would she feel?"
Kuma remained silent.
