Chapter 301 Trading
Rob looked at the angry boy opposite him, and the bloodlust that had been suppressed for a long time in his heart emerged again. An inexplicable light flashed in his eyes. He thought of an interesting idea, "Don't you want to know why Nico Robin doesn't want to go back with you?"
Qi stared at him in silence. "What do you want to say?"
"How about we make a deal?" Rob curled up the corners of his mouth and revealed a bloodthirsty smile.
"You should have heard that Nico Robin will be completing a mission with us next. During this time, I allow you to follow us."
"Of course you can't do anything, and you can't tell anyone about the deal between us. During this time, as long as you can convince Nico Robin to go with you, we won't stop you. You can take her away at any time."
Bruno looked at Rob Lucci in confusion, this was not what they had planned.
Qi frowned and looked at Rob Lucci in confusion, "What do you want to do?"
"If you can't successfully convince Nico Robin, you will follow us to Judicial Island and be at our mercy." Rob narrowed his eyes dangerously.
"Are you crazy? Why should I agree to this?" Qi curled his lips. Who would agree to such a stupid deal? "I just want to keep you here..."
"It's useless. Haven't you tried it?" Bruno interrupted.
Qi clenched the tube in his hand. He was right. If he couldn't untie Robin's knot, she would never go with him. And even if he took her away by force this time, what about the future? What should they do if this happens again?
And what exactly was the wish that Robin had said he would fulfill no matter what? What if she really wanted to leave them because of that so-called wish? Did everything he did hinder her or her dream? They were so confused. They knew so little about Robin.
"What do you think? This is an opportunity." Rob was not worried that he would refuse. He had already seen how much he cared about his companions. Although he didn't know why he acted as if he didn't know him, he didn't believe that he would forget the pain he caused him so quickly. But even if he forgot, it didn't matter. He would let him experience that pain again.
"Oh, by the way, let me remind you that Nico Robin will follow us back to Judicial Island after the mission is completed." Rob pretended to suddenly remember and said, "This will be the last place you will see her."
"Why would she go to Judicial Island with you guys!?" Qi was a little shocked. Isn't that the place of the World Government?
"Of course, it's because she's our partner in completing the mission." Rob said deliberately, "As an agent of the World Government, isn't it normal for her to return to Judicial Island to rest after completing the mission?"
"Stop joking, how could Robin join you!?" Qi didn't believe what this guy said at all. He still remembered what Aokiji said, that Robin had been avoiding the World Government's pursuit, so how could she join the World Government and take the initiative to go to Judicial Island.
"This will make her wish come true." Rob did not lie, but how these words would make the boy on the other side think was another matter. Rob pretended to be impatient and said, "Since you don't agree to this deal, there is no need to waste your breath, Bruno!"
"Wait a minute! It's just the Judicial Island." Qi looked at Rob Lucci with a firm expression, "I promise you!" He didn't believe that Robin would take the initiative to cooperate with the people of the World Government, but he would not let Robin go to the Judicial Island alone. Even if Robin went there for some purpose, at least no one could hurt Robin with him around.
"Then, to ensure that you will not sabotage the next mission," Rob took out a pair of seastone handcuffs that he had prepared long ago and said casually, "Put them on."
Qi looked at the handcuffs on Rob Lucci's hands and narrowed his eyes dangerously "Are you serious?"
"You are a superpower, right? I don't have anything else that can suppress superpowers." Rob's eyes flashed, "I need a guarantee. With your ability, this impure seastone will not have much effect on you. It will only affect your ability to use the fruit."
"Of course, if you don't want to, forget it. The deal between us..."
Before Rob Lucci could finish, Qi put one of the handcuffs on his left wrist, used his fingertips to break the connection, and threw the remaining half back into Rob Lucci's hand. "You wait."
Rob caught the remaining half. The weakness brought by the seastone was obvious, but... Rob looked at the boy who was not affected at all, his eyes flashed. No effect? It seems that he underestimated him. I am really looking forward to it.
Qi felt the seastone on his wrist. Except for the inability to use the main fruit ability, there was no other effect. His domineering aura was not affected by the seastone. On the contrary, the domineering aura in his body seemed to become stronger. However, the connection between him and Luffy seemed to be broken. Qi frowned. This was the first time this happened. Did the main fruit do something?

Aboard the Merry
"Sister Robin and Qi haven't come back yet?" Sanji looked a little uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.
"Was the money really stolen?" Nami looked at Zoro and Sanji angrily.
"I'm sorry..." Usopp said somewhat self-blamingly.
"It's okay, Usopp." Luffy laughed and comforted him, "It doesn't matter if we can't get it back. We still have 100 million Beli! Don't blame yourself anymore!"
"You're really reckless. You're lucky to be alive!" Sanji said with a sigh.
"Yeah, Usopp, I'm glad you're okay!" Nami comforted him, "As for the money, let's wait until Franky comes back. Then we can get the money back!"
Nami said the last sentence aggressively.
"But can the Merry be repaired with only 100 million berries?" Usopp said worriedly, "It's rare to have it repaired in a first-class shipyard... In order to cope with future voyages, it must be repaired to be stronger..."
Listening to Usopp's words, Luffy's smile fell, and then rose again.
"Usopp, I've decided to change a ship! We were able to get here thanks to the Merry, it has completed its mission!"
"Huh?" Chopper asked in confusion.
"Well, the keel of the Merry is broken and it can't be repaired. No matter how much money you have, it can't be repaired. That's what the shipwright said." Luffy explained, "The Merry can no longer sail to the next island."
Sanji sighed and said slowly, "But the Merry looks the same as before... From the East China Sea to here, it has gone through hardships with us..."
"People become stronger after experiencing storms, but ships are different...it's because of the hardships they've gone through that they become scarred." Zoro replied, he supported Luffy's decision.
Sanji sighed. Actually, he knew it, but... Sanji looked at Usopp. Usopp would be the one who would find it hardest to accept this news...
Usopp looked at Luffy in silence, listened in silence to his decision to change ship, and watched in silence as he turned around and took out the price list for the new ship, with that damn smile on his face all the time.
"Well, this is the price list that the uncle gave me..." Luffy flipped open a picture book, "It says that 100 million Baileys can buy an old ship that is bigger than the current one..."
