Chapter 229: Aokiji's True Purpose and Farewell to Robin

In the sea not far from Judicial Island, the waves hit the ice surface again and again, but each time they failed.

On the ice, Aokiji crossed his fingers in front of his abdomen and placed his elbows on the armrests of the ice seat. He seemed to have no intention of taking action.

He just quietly watched the somewhat nervous Straw Hat Pirates on the Merry.

"Huh? This guy is actually a navy admiral! Has he ever fought against you?"

Hearing Usopp's words, Franky showed a surprised expression and subconsciously wanted to transform into General Franky form.

Fortunately, Usopp and Chopper tried their best to stop him.

As for the even more brainless Luffy, he was subdued by Zoro and Sanji the moment he opened his mouth.

No matter from which perspective, Aokiji in front of them didn't seem to have any intention of taking action, so there was no need for them to take the initiative.

This is out at sea, not suitable for fighting.

Aokiji didn't care about the farce in front of him. He had locked his eyes on Bai Ye since then.

Aokiji said slowly: "The golden Den Den Mushi on Spandam should have been taken away by you."

Hearing this, Bai Ye's mouth twitched slightly, and he reached into his arms and took out the golden Den Den Mushi.

"The Navy, the largest violent organization in the entire ocean, actually cares about these little things? How stingy they are."

While complaining, Bai Ye threw the golden Den Den Mushi in his hand to Aokiji, feeling a little regretful.

In the original work, as long as the Golden Den Den Mushi is pressed, the demon-slaying order can be immediately launched, and the Navy Headquarters does not even go through the process of verifying the identity of the initiator.

This naturally made Bai Ye very envious. At certain times, this little Den Den Mushi could be very useful.

"Ah la la, this is no small thing, especially in the hands of someone like you."

Aokiji caught the Den Den Mushi and spoke, while also playing a little yin and yang on Byakuya.

Then, Aokiji looked at Bai Ye and asked, "Why don't you press it?"

It is easy to understand what Aokiji meant, why not let the Demon Killing Order fall on Judicial Island.

"If I really press it, will you destroy Judicial Island?"

Bai Ye did not answer Aokiji's question, but asked it back.

Although Aokiji did not admit it directly, Bai Ye understood what he meant from Aokiji's expression.

Aokiji doesn't care.

Come to think of it, in the original work, the Water Seven Capital and Enforcement Island incidents were almost entirely caused by Aokiji.

Including the arrival of the Demon Slaying Order on the Judicial Island, Aokiji watched almost the entire process and watched the Judicial Island being destroyed in a sea of ​​fire.

What’s even more interesting is when the Merry fought with its last breath to pick up the Straw Hat Pirates and escaped from the encirclement of the Demon Slayer Fleet.

Aokiji actually stopped the fleet's request to continue the pursuit, and instead openly admitted the navy's failure.

One can't help but feel like it's a script.

Some people suspected that Aokiji was using this incident to test the Straw Hat Pirates and Nico Robin. After all, if he really wanted to catch them, considering the strength of both sides at the time, Aokiji would have had too many opportunities to take action.

But until the end, the Straw Hat Pirates openly held a banquet in Water Seven, and Aokiji did not take action.

Bai Ye also had such a guess, but in addition to this, Bai Ye had other ideas.

Is Aokiji deliberately destroying the Judicial Island through the Straw Hats?

As a witness to the O'Hara incident, Aokiji has believed in lazy justice ever since.

Could it be that during this period of time, Aokiji had other ideas about the World Government?

And this time the Judicial Island incident was Aokiji's response to the previous incident.

This guess is very bold, but Bai Ye couldn't help but think so.

As the initiator of the whole incident, Aokiji not only accepted his failure calmly, but even "sent" Robin off in the end.

Even if Aokiji's friend Sauro was involved, Aokiji would not behave like this.

Unless - his target is not, or not just Robin.

"It seems that we have the same idea."

Bai Ye suddenly spoke and said this to Aokiji.

The other members of the Straw Hat Pirates were a little confused when they heard this, but Aokiji's expression changed in an instant.

Besides Byakuya, the only other person who noticed this fleeting change was Robin, who had been staring at Aokiji.

She looked at Bai Ye thoughtfully and said nothing more.

Aokiji also regained his poker face and changed the subject:

"Nico Robin, who can translate and write ancient texts, and Franky, who has the design drawings of Pluto."

Aokiji looked at the Straw Hat Pirates:

"Two demons capable of destroying the world have become your allies."

"Straw Hat Boy Luffy, you know what you are about to face."

"Even with the old man here, there's nothing we can do against an opponent like that."

"you..."

"I don't care." Luffy interrupted Aokiji before he could finish.

He looked directly at Aokiji and said word by word:

"I once told the pirate who protected me that I would find a group of better companions than his crew, and I would become the Pirate King."

"So, I am ready to pay the price of my life for this."

"No one can take my friend away!"

On the sea, a sudden strong wind blew up and huge waves hit the Merry, but Luffy still stood straight, holding down his straw hat with a firm look.

After hearing what Luffy said, everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates, including Byakuya and Zoro, couldn't help but smile.

Perhaps, this is why they are still willing to follow their captain even though he is such an idiot.

At this moment, a thought came to everyone's mind at the same time:

One Piece? If you want to be one, let us accompany you to try it.

Aokiji's expression didn't change at all, as if he didn't feel that the pirates were shouting at him at all. Instead, he said casually:

"Oh my, that's a really naive idea."

"In that case, let me see how far people like you can go."

After saying this, Aokiji slowly stood up and prepared to leave.

After he turned around, he suddenly stopped and spoke slowly after a moment:

“The giant who fought for O’Hara twenty years ago is a good friend of mine.”

"I followed his will and let you go. From then on, I have the responsibility to pay attention to your life."

Hearing this, Robin's face changed drastically.

"But for twenty years, you showed no intention of staying here. I wanted to use this opportunity to eliminate this time bomb of yours."

"But..."

"You seem to have finally found a place to stay."

"Is it right or wrong for Sauro to let you live? I look forward to your answer."

"Stay alive, O'Hara...you are not dead yet."

"Blue Pheasant..."

Looking at the figure gradually disappearing into the distance, Robin seemed to understand something.

For a moment, Robin had a lot to say, but he didn't know how to say it.

After a long time, she slowly uttered:

"Then please take a good look at my answer."
