"Shakuyaku-nee, your eyesight is as sharp as ever!" Kai said with a helpless smile.
"Kai-kun, it's just that you're too flamboyant." Shakuyaku snuffed out the cigarette and said, "However, I think that that girl being captured is probably inseparable from you."
"If you hadn't made such a big commotion, she would still be living freely."
Kai didn't refute Shakuyaku's words.
In the original work, Nico Robin's whereabouts had also been exposed after Luffy had defeated Shichibukai Crocodile.
That's why she had fallen into the hands of CP9 and had been sent to Enies Lobby.
Originally, Kai had thought that leaving Robin in the Narisake Great Tomb would allow her to be safe and sound.
It seemed that Kai was still a bit too naive.
"Kid, what are your plans now?" Shakuyaku asked first, watching the silent Kai.
"Plans?" Kai came back to his senses, smiled, and downed the beer in one gulp and said, "Of course it's to save people, even if it's a dragon's pool and a tiger's den."
"A dragon's pool and a tiger's den?" Shakuyaku said with a smile, "I finally understand where your personal charm comes from."
"Having a protective person like you makes people feel very safe. If I were younger, I would also be willing to go with you."
Watching Shakuyaku, who was about to praise him to death at once, Kai rolled his eyes helplessly and said, "It seems that the intelligence you've obtained, Shakuyaku-nee, is probably a bit difficult, right?"
"Kid, you're indeed a smart person." Shakuyaku lit a cigarette again and said, "I received the intelligence three days ago that that girl has been sent to Enies Lobby."
"Now that three days have passed, whether she'll still be staying on Enies Lobby is the key."
"Don't forget that that girl's identity is too sensitive for the World Government."
She had entered three days ago?
Kai frowned. A trace of apology flashed in his pupils and said, "It's good to have news. I'll go take a look."
"You're going to take a look?" Shakuyaku spat out a cigarette and said, "Are you planning to break in? With what identity?"
"If you use the Skeletal Great Demon to come forward, it will probably cause a result of going to war with the World Government."
As one of the people who clearly knew Kai's other identities, Shakuyaku understood that the Skeletal Great Demon had climbed to the position of the Fifth Emperor on the sea in a short period of time.
He had also saved the World Destroyer Byrnndi World.
If he chose to act recklessly this time as well, then it would be completely tearing off the face with the Marine Headquarters and even the World Government.
By that time, the World Government and the Marine Headquarters would definitely launch an encirclement and suppression against Kai.
Once that time came, what would be waiting for Kai would be an extremely passive situation.
The other forces on the sea would definitely not stand idly by. Who knew, they might even reap the benefits.
"Shakuyaku-nee, don't worry. I'll use the Escanor identity to handle the next actions." Kai downed the newly added beer again, stood up suddenly, and turned around and left.
"That identity's name is Escanor? He feels like a very arrogant person." Shakuyaku said with a smile with her arms crossed, "I hope everything goes smoothly for you. Are you leaving right now?"
"No, I still need to clean up the mess. If that girl wakes up, let her cultivate in peace." Kai pushed open the door and said, "I'm sorry for troubling you, Shakuyaku-nee, to help me promote the name of Escanor, the Sin of Pride."
"You kid, you're really not afraid of things getting bigger. However, I'll help you greatly exaggerate this matter and shift the attention of this sea to you." Shakuyaku spat out a cigarette and watched Kai's figure disappear before her eyes.
Sabaody Archipelago, No. 3 Island.
After No. 1 Island had been destroyed by the Skeletal Great Demon and No. 2 Island had been caused to be a mess by Laxus, No. 3 Island had undoubtedly inherited the prosperity of the previous two major islands.
As long as they set foot on the island, the pirates, who were heading to the New World by using the Sabaody Archipelago as a springboard, would carry out replenishment and rest here.
Along the way, pirates came and went in an endless stream.
However, most of the people who had landed on the island seemed to have a target early on and walked towards the tavern in the center of the island one after another.
"Have you guys heard? The three pirate groups, who had rushed to No. 13 Island first to catch people, seemed to have been wiped out by one person." A burly pirate lowered his voice and said to the pirate next to him.
"However, they deserved to be killed."
"Everyone has the opportunity to try for the mission that Lord West Spad has issued. They insisted on monopolizing it. Now that they're dead, we'll also have a chance."
"You're thinking too naively. Right now, there are twelve pirate groups with bounties of tens of millions gathered in the tavern."
"Among them, there are at least three pirate group captains who possess Zoan-type Devil Fruit abilities. Under this kind of lineup, what can you, who has a bounty of a mere 30 million, do?"
The conversations that were being passed out one after another echoed on the street.
Watching the tavern at the end of the road, Kai had already entered the Escanor character template.
"Hey hey, are you also planning to go and accept the mission? We can go and take a look together." A shout suddenly rang out.
Kai turned back and looked behind him. What entered his eyes was actually an unexpected figure.
Supernova No. 2!
"Cavendish of the White Horse?"
"Y...you recognize me?"
Cavendish, who was wearing a white noble outfit, couldn't help but flick his golden hair and said smugly, "If you're planning to get an autograph, you need to line up."
"However, looking at your good body, I can let you cut in line."
"I didn't expect that I would be able to meet my die-hard fan as soon as I landed on the Sabaody Archipelago."
"The rude guys, who have popped up during this time, aren't beautiful at all. They actually dare to cover up my light. I will definitely not let them off!"
Watching Cavendish, who had started to complain as soon as he had opened his mouth,
Kai understood instantly that this guy was going to join in the fun.
He was probably still planning to find a way to increase his fame.
In the original work, Cavendish and Portgas D. Ace were considered to be supernovas who were a year apart.
However, because of the emergence of the Worst Generation, Cavendish's fame and halo had been covered up at once.
This reason had even led to Cavendish holding hostility towards Luffy.
According to the original work's deduction, Cavendish had probably just set sail not long ago right now.
"How much bounty do you have?" Cavendish asked first.
Bounty?
Escanor said indifferently, "None for the time being!"
"No bounty? Are you a native of the Sabaody Archipelago?" Cavendish was stunned slightly.
In his eyes, the people who were able to come to the Sabaody Archipelago alive were more or less pirates who had some strength.
On the basis of strength, they would also have a bounty accordingly.
What's more, the feeling that Escanor gave Cavendish was definitely not as simple as those cannon fodders.
Then the only explanation was that he was a native of the Sabaody Archipelago.
