A few days later, news of an attack that shocked the world was announced.

With a bounty of 55 million Baileys, the Bellamy Pirates attacked Red Harbor and were arrested and imprisoned—!

In the first half of the Grand Line, on an uninhabited island with lush greenery.

The Straw Hat Pirates, who had just finished their adventure on Sky Island, met Admiral Aokiji on this island, who was searching for Nico Robin.

On the eastern shore of the uninhabited island, a huge ice sculpture of a sea king was frozen along with the sea.

The refugees on the island, which was shattered when a cruise ship hit a giant frog a few days ago, headed to the next island under the guidance of Aokiji.

The Straw Hat Pirates were stopped by Aokiji alone.

After the O'Hara incident was changed by Arthur, everything seemed to have changed. Aokiji had no intention of showing mercy to the Straw Hat Pirates.

He planned to capture all of them on this uninhabited island and bring them back to be punished. As for the grandson of his mentor Garp, he would naturally be released on bail.

Others will experience different types of detention and reform.

After sending away the refugees on the island, Aokiji still maintained a lazy look, staring at the Straw Hat Pirates in front of him and thinking.

Seeing the Straw Hats on guard, he suddenly said, "Well, it's time to take care of your business."

"In the Alabasta incident, the news said that Nico Robin escaped with your group. It seems to be true."

Robin, with fair skin and a panicked look on his face, collapsed to the ground and looked at Aokiji in front of him.

"Now that there are no refugees, we can calm down and deal with the hostile issues." Luffy glanced at the frightened Robin and said to Aokiji while posing in a fighting stance.

"It's over...we can't escape." Robin said in despair.

Without the refugees on the shore, the atmosphere became extremely tense.

At this moment, the Straw Hat Pirates have no idea of ​​the current strength of the Navy Admirals and have a short-sighted understanding of the world's combat power. Only Robin knows everything.

Aokiji spoke again:

"Nicole Robin, I don't know why that guy abandoned you, but now you are planning to hide among a group of newcomers, and then find the right time to betray them and gain benefits from it, right?"

"No! I have changed!" Robin responded, "I plan to start my life over again and never go back to who I used to be!"

After following the Straw Hat Pirates on a voyage for several days, she was moved by their innocence and unique style and had established a basic bond with them.

Different from previous pirate groups, they are more like a group of dreamers and adventurers gathered together to enjoy the comfortable life of sailing.

When fighting, people will only take action when there is a full reason, or to help others.

She had never even dared to think about this kind of life since she was abandoned by Arthur.

"You are you, Nico Robin." Aokiji's expression became serious after hearing her words: "You will not change. If you want evidence, it is that all the organizations you have been in have been destroyed so far."

Robin had no way of refutation. In order to survive, to stay alive, she had to mingle with the dark society.

Aokiji exuded cold air from his body, freezing the grass beneath his feet and spreading towards the Straw Hat Pirates. He added, "Even that guy who protected you for only a few weeks completely disappeared without a trace."

"The grass is frozen! Be careful, Luffy, he is a devil..." Before Zoro finished his words, the speed at which the cold air in front of him spread increased instantly.

In an instant, except for Nami, Chopper, Usopp, and Sanji, the few people without a bounty were intact.

Luffy and Zoro were instantly frozen into ice sculptures.

The coldness of the frozen fruit is rampant. No temperature can be felt under the warm sunshine, only the bone-chilling extreme cold.

"Luffy...Zoro!? What happened to you two? In just a moment..." Nami looked at Zoro in shock, who was in a fighting stance in front of her and turned around to remind Luffy.

It has completely turned into a frozen sculpture emitting cold air.

"Green algae head..." Sanji's cognition was broken at this moment, and the cigarette in his mouth fell on the frozen grass: "You are kidding, right? Was there only one second just now?!"

"There's still time for you to mend your ways now, guys without a bounty." Aokiji walked straight towards Robin: "As for you, Nico Robin!"

Seeing the aggressive Aokiji approaching, Robin took a vigilant fighting posture and shouted: "I am no longer the same person I used to be. Why have you been forcing me for the past 20 years? I had to do those things to survive, otherwise I would have died!"

Aokiji pressed on step by step, already wanting to kill him: "No matter what you say, the World Government wants to capture you alive now. You should know what this means, right?"

After hearing the news, Robin said four words in surprise: "Ancient weapons..."

"That's right! Your existence is a great threat to this world." Aokiji came in front of Robin, and an ice blade sprouted in his hand: "Instead of handing you over to the World Government, why not let you go now?"

Aokiji slashed at Robin with his sword, intending to kill her right away, but he deliberately slowed down his pace just to hear any last words she had.

The ice blade swung down, but was blocked by Sanji's foot as he suddenly stood in front of Robin.

"Hmm?" Aokiji looked at Sanji: "You don't want to correct yourself, do you plan to continue helping her and become a pirate?"

"I'm sorry, Admiral of the Navy Headquarters." Sanji's face was covered with cold sweat. He looked at Aokiji and confronted him and said, "I can't accept a lady being killed in front of me. If you want to kill someone, you'd better kill me first."

Hearing this, Aokiji was moved by this bond and personal characteristics, but the next moment, he still activated the Ice Fruit and instantly froze Sanji, who was standing in front of Robin, into an ice cube.

"Sanji!" Chopper, Nami, and Usopp shouted when they saw this.

At this moment, they were completely powerless in the face of the tip of the iceberg of the fighting power displayed by Aokiji.

After defeating Sanji, Aokiji turned to look at Robin and said with a smile: "It's your turn, Nico Robin. Do you have any last words, pitiful you?"

If it were him more than 20 years ago, he would have defeated the Straw Hat Pirates.

After witnessing the corruption and dark side of the navy's top brass, his inner passion for justice completely changed.

From passionate to lazy justice.

Robin suddenly covered his heart and shouted to Aokiji: "If you want to catch me, take me away and don't hurt this group! I won't resist at all."

These words were spoken from the bottom of her heart at this moment.

After experiencing Alabasta and Sky Island, she has come to regard the Straw Hat Pirates as partners.

This answer made Aokiji's expression slightly moved, and he said: "Well, this is unexpected, but are you mistaken?"

"Huh?" Robin was stunned, thinking that her value could not be exchanged for a pirate group whose total bounty was less than 200 million Baileys?

"I said I wanted to kill you, not hand you over to the government." Aokiji finished speaking and was ready to swing the knife decisively.

Above the uninhabited island, Cooper's figure suddenly circled in the air and made his signature cry.

Hearing Cooper's call, Aokiji's pupils flickered. He stopped swinging the knife at Robin and looked up at the sky.

He didn't expect that twenty years later, Cooper was still alive.

Its appearance here can only represent one problem.

That means Arthur must be nearby!

After the analysis, Aokiji sped up, turned around quickly, and decisively slashed at Robin again without any hesitation.

The ice blade slashed across Robin's side for a moment, and with a snap, it was blocked by Arthur who appeared in front of Robin in an instant.

Seeing this, Aokiji broke out in sweat on his forehead and immediately stepped back to distance himself from him.

"Handsome big brother!!" Nami stared at Arthur who appeared out of nowhere and saved Robin, and suddenly shouted to him.

"Take it aboard and thaw it out while it's still breathing." Arthur ignored Nami and looked at Robin behind him: "Cooper will take you away from this sea."

"Cooper!" (No way! I want to fight him!)

In the air, Cooper heard Arthur's words and called out with reluctance.

"Be obedient and hurry up." Arthur heard it and said to it again.

"Ku!" Cooper was even more reluctant and so angry that he had to fly to the Golden Merry and scold the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Hurry up, Robin, what are you doing!" Chopper shouted to the stunned Robin.

At this moment, Robin stared at Arthur's back in front of him, covered his mouth and cried again, as if he understood everything.

At this moment, she knew that Arthur had not abandoned her.

Robin stood up very quickly, used his ability to grab Sanji's ice sculpture, and ran towards the Golden Merry.

"Enjoy your adventure, little girl. Consider it my compensation for changing the course of your life." Arthur said to Robin.

These words moved Robin so much that he started crying secretly.

On the shore, Aokiji didn't dare to say a word. He looked at Arthur, who was almost the same age and appearance as 20 years ago, and asked:

"Why! Why are you on this island? Have you been following her? Arthur!"

Even after twenty years, Arthur's experience of intimidating the entire ocean made Aokiji dare not act rashly.

Who knows how much stronger he has become after twenty years?

Arthur watched as Cooper cooperated with Robin, using the power of the Hana-Hana Nomi to form a huge support connected to the Golden Merry, and then spread their wings and took the ship away from the sea. His expression immediately returned to its normal coldness.

He turned to look at Aokiji who had been standing alert in front of him.

"It's been twenty years. Could it be that you are contacting Nico Robin again for the ancient weapons?" Aokiji asked again.

The cold atmosphere on the island was almost tense, as if a fierce battle was about to break out in the next second.

Arthur took out the black sword Ice Dragon from the soul cage, and pulled out the black and blue one, holding it in his hand, staring at Aokiji calmly.

"She will revive the ancient weapon one day and destroy the world!" Aokiji saw Arthur took out a knife from nowhere and became even more alert: "Are you planning to use her to deal with the navy and the world government?!"

"I'm not interested in that kind of thing, Kuzan." Arthur remained calm and said to him, "But I do know how to revive ancient weapons."

"Really? Then I can only capture you and hand you over to the World Government for disposal." After getting the answer, Aokiji directly confronted Arthur.
