Liam realized that this was probably the “safe zone” where Luffy had stored his straw hat during the “two-year period.”
Looking at the large tree with its white, smooth trunk like a giant radish, he immediately wanted to leave a mark on it. He turned to Robin and said, “Can you write something on it for me?”
Robin asked in confusion, “Haven’t you learned how to write?”
“I mean, that kind of writing.” Liam chuckled, “It feels more ceremonial, you know, Kozuki Robin.”
Robin was puzzled.
What is this about…
“What do you want me to write?” Robin took the iron rod from Liam. With the assistance of ‘B.I.B.’, she didn’t find the heavy rod difficult to handle.
“I came here and led everything to the end…” Liam said, looking at the person who said this and the one who would do the engraving, “Wait, this omen doesn’t seem very good… Let’s change it!”
Robin held the tip of the rod against the giant, radish-like tree trunk and asked, “To what?”
“Let me think…” Liam pondered, “I can’t come up with anything… Robin, what sentence do you think sounds impressive but cryptic?”
“You’re already impressively cryptic to me right now…”
“Your sarcasm skills are improving!” Liam laughed, “Alright, let’s write this—”
Robin nodded, picked up the iron rod with one hand, and with practiced ease, engraved the ancient script that only she could understand on the massive, radish-like tree trunk.
“Fate is a sleeping slave. — The Attacking Giant”
Robin stopped writing and stepped back to Liam’s side, reviewing the line of ancient script she had inscribed. She pondered the sentence.
Fate…
Slave…
It seemed quite philosophical.
However, looking at Liam next to her, it seemed he probably didn’t think too deeply about it… Maybe he just thought the sentence was interesting…
But the signature left Robin puzzled.
“Why ‘The Attacking Giant’?” Robin asked, puzzled. Did this have something to do with the Morley they had met before or some other giant?
Liam replied, “I didn’t say that. I can’t just sign my own name.”
“Oh…” Robin nodded and then asked, “So—did Roger really say that?”
“What?” Liam looked confused.
You don’t even remember that? Robin was speechless and reminded him, “People’s dreams…”
“Oh, oh! That line.” Liam suddenly understood and casually said, “If Roger isn’t happy about it, he can come out and fight me himself, haha…”
Robin: “…”
He really is this casual…
At that moment, Liam suddenly looked up at the sky and reached out to catch something invisible.
Robin understood; it must be the “face” of Liam’s armor ghost from two days ago, which had returned after being sent out to scout.
“Did you send it to find a way out of the Calm Belt?” she asked curiously.
—
“Who said we’re leaving…”
“So, you’re going to search for nearby islands?”
“Something like that…” Liam toyed with the pitch-black mask in his hands. “I’ve heard that in the Calm Belt, there’s an island of women, where many skilled female warriors live!”
“A kingdom of women? I thought that was only in fairy tales…” Robin paused, then questioned, warriors?
Liam put the mask on Robin’s face and smiled, “Did you guess it? That’s right, they all have Haki! Rayleigh is too far away; this place is closer.”
“I see…” Robin nodded and then heard Liam ask, “How’s your arm?”
Robin touched her arm, “It felt almost healed yesterday…”
“Then take it off! Let’s head into the City Fortress…” Liam snapped his fingers, and the pitch-black armor on Robin instantly disintegrated.
Robin felt her strength drain away like a receding tide… It was as if she had become extremely weak. But after adjusting for a while, she realized that this was her true state. The foreign power she had been wrapped in was merely an illusion.
She noticed Liam staring into the empty air in front of him, seemingly lost in thought… She couldn’t help but laugh, “You haven’t retracted it for a while, have you?”
After being around Liam for so long, she had naturally figured out the pattern.
The longer his ghost was away from him, the worse Liam felt when retracting it…
“Why aren’t you apologizing?” Liam glared at her.
“‘Sorry, Liam, it’s all because I wanted to protect you, so…’” Robin mimicked Liam’s previous sarcastic tone, blinking, “Is this what you want me to say?”
Liam said, “Yes, actually.”
“Huh?” Robin was stunned; this reaction was unexpected.
“You’re so easy to tease!” Liam laughed heartily, pushing Robin into the City Fortress of ‘B.I.B.’
‘B.I.B.’ looked at him.
“Let’s discuss this later… Let’s check the situation first…” Liam nervously avoided the Stand’s gaze and dove into its City Fortress.
Over the past week, to protect Robin on this island full of beasts and deal with the constant threats, ‘B.I.B.’ had been exerting itself almost as much as he had…
Entering the City Fortress, Robin patted the walls and asked curiously, “Has it found the island of the women yet?”
“Not yet!” Liam laughed. When the mask returned earlier, it reported not the location of the Kujai Island, but rather…
…
A pirate flag drooped limply.
Without a breeze, it naturally couldn’t flutter.
A massive ship, with two long-bearded sea serpents tied to its bow, was being dragged across the windless, calm sea.
On the deck of the huge ship, adorned in red, were a group of women dressed in cool, colorful outfits.
They varied in height and build, but the one thing they had in common was their warrior attire, and each woman had a tall snake accompanying her, with whom she interacted naturally and playfully as if they were the truest of partners.
A graceful, giant-like female warrior squatted down and said to a black-haired girl in a flower-patterned kimono, “You’re really something, Hancock, participating in the archery trials at such a young age…”
“Who wants to do archery trials? I want to go to the outside island, more~~ outside!” The black-haired girl in the flower-patterned kimono stretched out her arms to describe how much more~~ outside it was. She angrily said, “And I’m almost 11 years old!”
A female warrior with a pet snake walked over and reminded, “Get ready, we’re approaching Rusukaina Island.”
At the sound, all the female warriors on the deck became serious.
The girl named Hancock waved, her pet snake Salome coiling around her arm. She looked at the approaching island and disdainfully said, “It’s just Busoshoku Haki (Armament Haki), does this really need practice?”
