Chapter 266: Bribing Lucci

Chapter 266: Chapter 266: Bribing Lucci

Hearing this, Robin looked even more terrified. She quickly said:

"Nami, stop talking. This man is with the World Government’s CP9. He’s a completely heartless killer. Run!"

Nami froze. An assassin unit of the World Government?

She didn’t know much about the World Government’s agencies, but she had heard of an organization called CP9.

CP9 was an assassination unit of the World Government, separate from its eight intelligence agencies.

Back when she was working for Arlong, she had heard him talk about how terrifying they were.

CP9 was an organization born from bloodshed, and one of the World Government’s safeguards for maintaining its highest authority.

But why would CP9 target pirates of their level? It was unbelievable.

Nami looked terrified. She quickly backed away with Robin, then waved her hands and said ingratiatingly:

"Oh, so you’re a CP9 agent. You must be tired from carrying out your mission. Would you like a little money for tea?"

As she spoke, cold sweat poured down Nami’s forehead.

She awkwardly tried to imitate the way Arlong had once bribed the Marines:

"Ah, I understand. You must be in a difficult position if you fail to complete your mission, right?"

"Name your price. No matter how much it is, I’ll pay you. We have plenty of money, really."

Hearing this, Lucci let out a breath of stale air.

Seeing this, Nami thought Lucci had given in. She was just about to take a couple of steps toward him when Robin pulled her back.

"Stop joking around. There’s no way you can bribe CP9 with money."

Before Robin could finish speaking, Lucci had already appeared in front of Nami.

He immediately punched her in the stomach.

Nami spat out a mouthful of bile and staggered back two steps.

Only with Robin’s support was she able to stay on her feet.

Nami stared at Lucci in disbelief, shock filling her eyes.

Robin also stepped in front of Nami, glaring angrily at Lucci.

"You promised me you would let the members of the Straw Hat crew go. You wouldn’t break your word, would you?"

Hearing this, Lucci stretched and loosened his muscles.

"Publicly bribing an official of the World Government is more than enough to warrant the death penalty."

"But I will keep my promise. If I hadn’t, she wouldn’t still be alive."

Hearing this, a cold look appeared in Robin’s eyes.

She then lowered Nami to the ground.

Nami clutched her stomach and reached out with difficulty.

"Robin, I don’t know what they’re using to threaten you, but no matter what it is, the Straw Hat crew will accept you. Come with me!"

Robin’s expression trembled slightly. At the same time, a cold look appeared in Lucci’s eyes.

Sensing Lucci’s killing intent, Robin was startled. She gritted her teeth and turned away.

"It’s no use. I’m not going back with you. I already told Raynor that I’m leaving the Straw Hat crew."

Hearing this, Nami looked terrified.

"Robin, I already told you. We don’t throw our companions out! If you want to leave the Straw Hat crew, you have to tell the captain yourself. Don’t you understand something that simple, Robin?"

Robin bit her lower lip and then walked toward Lucci.

"Stop talking, navigator. Coming aboard your ship in the first place was a mistake. I acted on my own. Thank you for accepting me. Goodbye."

Hearing Robin say this, Lucci also let out a breath, a sinister look appearing in his eyes.

"Nico Robin, you’ve made a wise decision. All right, let’s get going and head to Enies Lobby."

As he spoke, Lucci looked at Kalifa, who had been knocked unconscious by the electricity.

"Hey, how long are you planning to sleep? If you don’t get up, I’m leaving you behind."

Hearing this, the fear buried deep inside Kalifa was awakened. She instantly clenched her fists and struggled to sit up.

"Sorry, Lucci. I failed to complete the mission. Give me one more chance. I’ll go kill him right now!"

Hearing this, Lucci’s eyes turned cold.

"No need. We’re leaving now. We’re going to Enies Lobby."

Kalifa immediately stood up and brushed the dust off her clothes.

She then followed Lucci toward the outside of Galley-La.

Seeing this, Nami twisted her body, but the pain in her abdomen was so intense that she didn’t dare move too much.

Nami gritted her teeth and looked at Raynor, who was lying on the ground.

"Hey, what are you standing around for? Robin is being taken away! Didn’t you see? Hurry up and stop them!"

Hearing this, Chopper raised his eyes. His expression was terrified, and when he saw Robin, he looked confused.

Nami shouted again:

"Robin is being taken away by an official of the World Government! Chopper, hurry up and stop him!"

Hearing this, a serious look appeared in Chopper’s eyes.

He immediately stood up, jumped off Raynor’s body, and transformed into his full beast form.

"So you’re the ones who kidnapped Robin? Unforgivable!"

As he spoke, Chopper vanished in a flash and attacked Lucci.

"Arm Point!"

As soon as he said this, Chopper’s hoof grew more than ten times thicker.

Seeing this, a serious look appeared in Lucci’s eyes.

"So you’re not a pet. A Zoan Devil Fruit? Very nice."

Lucci clenched his fist. Iron Body coated it as he slammed it against Chopper’s hoof.

In an instant, Chopper felt every bone in his body shake violently. He was then sent flying.

Chopper clutched his hoof and writhed on the ground, terror filling his eyes.

"How is this possible? His fist is even harder than my hoof, and he’s far too strong!"

Seeing Chopper’s pained expression, Raynor frowned slightly.

Lucci’s 4,000 Doriki strength really was no exaggeration.

With that thought, Raynor silently said to himself:

"System, extract the Aries Celestial Spirit Key!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a golden key appeared in Raynor’s hand.

Raynor then summoned Aries.

The next moment, a girl wearing woolen bloomers appeared in front of everyone, her face shy and bashful.

Aries looked around at her surroundings, then closed her eyes and said shyly:

"I-I’m sorry."

Hearing this, everyone present stiffened.

They hadn’t even done anything yet, had they?

Nami lay on the ground and looked at Aries, confusion filling her eyes.

She had seen Raynor summon a giant mermaid before.

But compared to that fierce-looking mermaid,

what use could this trembling, extremely shy girl possibly be?

As Nami wondered about this, Sanji, who was lying not far away, suddenly began to move.

Nami had checked Sanji’s injuries earlier.
