At this moment, Rice was less than three meters away from her, which was an extremely dangerous signal.

Robin was shocked. How could it be possible? Was my vigilance so low? Or was Rice's strength much greater than hers? At such a close distance, if Rice had just launched an attack, she might not have been able to dodge it.

Robin suppressed her fear, calmed her breath, and looked at Rice vigilantly.

"Your Excellency seems to have been prepared. I am really curious about how you found me. I am very confident in my stealth skills."

Of course, Rice couldn't tell her that he was discovered by Nojigo when he followed Rice and the other two in the afternoon. No matter how clever the method is, it can't compare to the power of the devil fruit.

Rice shook his head and said,"Do you think I am stupid enough to tell you my method?"

Rice looked at her and pretended to be surprised and said,"Nicole Robin? The only survivor who escaped from O'Hara 20 years ago. Now the reward is 80 million Baileys, nicknamed the Devil's Son."

Robin's heart sank, but his face was not timid at all. He squinted his eyes and crossed his chest and said��:"You are quite knowledgeable."

Les said in a slightly cold voice:"You appearing here at this moment, it seems like you are going to harm me."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Robin looked regretful:"Alas, there is no way, I am just following orders, if you behave well, maybe there are other options"

"Twelve-wheel Flower·Bend"As he spoke, Robin had already launched an attack. Fearing Rice's strength, he went all out as soon as he attacked.

""Shave!" At the same time, Rice also launched an attack and disappeared from the spot.

Robin's pupils shrank. What a fast speed, but he is a person who specializes in fighting against fast people.

Robin crossed his hands calmly, clenched his fists, and retreated at a high speed.

As Robin expected, twelve arms grew out of Rice's body while he was running at a high speed, and at the same time, he exerted force on his feet, hands, and waist, trying to trip Rice and severely injure Rice.

However, when the new arms touched Rice's body, it was as if they had touched a piece of iron plate, and they couldn't move it at all even with all their strength.

Robin's pupils shrank slightly, and he said in a lost voice:"How is this possible."

Les smiled. Robin's move was a nightmare for people with insufficient physical strength, but for someone as strong as Les, it was just a tickle.

In a flash, Les had rushed in front of Robin, and his white jade arms were trying their best to block Les, but unfortunately, this did not slow down Les' body.

In Robin's slightly panicked eyes, Les grabbed Robin's slender neck.

Robin was shocked. He didn't expect that the gap between him and Les was so big.

"Tell me, who sent you to kill me?"Les said coldly.

Robin's panicked eyes calmed down. Years of escape life made her care less about life and death than ordinary people.

"One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Crocodile Crocodile. But from the looks of you, it seems that you don't intend to kill me."Robin's face did not show any guilt for betraying his ally.

After all, compared to life, cooperation with Crocodile seemed dispensable. Although the man in front of him did not seem to have the intention to kill, there was no guarantee. So it was better to cooperate a little.

"Hehe, you don't have much killing intent, but it depends on your performance. From your appearance, you seem to have some opinions about Crocodile."

"Opinions? Just cooperate with him."Robin was thankful that he had just tried to test it out and didn't have the intention to kill him.

Rice naturally knew that it was Crocodile who sent Robin to kill him, but Nojigo didn't know. Based on Rice's understanding of Nojigo, she should be paying attention to him now, and in color.

In order to lead Crocodile out in a logical way, Rice had to act out the whole play.

"Why does Crocodile want to kill us?" Rice nodded and continued to ask.

Robin said lightly:"Crocodile created a three-year drought in Alabasta. His purpose was to force the people to revolt against the royal family when they had no choice, and your appearance has alleviated the demand for water for some civilians. This greatly reduced the determination of the rebels. This naturally greatly affected Crocodile's plan, so he asked me to kill you."

Rice frowned and said:"The dancing powder incident a few years ago was also Crocodile's frame-up of the king, and the drying up of the lower reaches of the Santo River was also your fault."

Robin was stunned for a moment, and smiled:"I didn't expect Mr. Rice to be so smart"

"Drought, the king's breach of trust, the people's rebellion, what exactly does Crocodile want to do?" Rice ignored Robin's compliments, applied a little force with his fingers, and looked directly at Robin.

Robin's eyes were deep, and facing Rice's questioning, he said:"Just as you thought, he wants to usurp the country!"

"Usurping a country? Haha, Nico Robin, do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? What good would it do for a Shichibukai like Crocodile to usurp a country?" Rice pressed on, less than five centimeters away from Robin.

Robin was silent for a while, and seeing that he couldn't hide it from Rice, he had to slowly say,"Do you know the historical text?"

Rice nodded and said nothing.

"There are two kinds of historical texts. One is a signpost that indicates the way to the destination; the other records knowledge, including the location of ancient weapons. The royal family of the Kingdom of Alabasta has a historical text in their hands, and the information recorded on it is very likely the location of the legendary Pluto!"

Rice was surprised and said,"So, what Crocodile wants is Pluto."

Robin shook his head,"No, he also wants the country."

Rice said,"What about you? What is your purpose? Why do you want to cooperate with him?"

Robin sighed, looking lonely, with an unspeakable loneliness in the depths of his eyes:"I just want to know the truth of history."

"I want to know what Crocodile will do after getting rid of us."

Having said so much, this is not a big deal. Robin said,"First kidnap the king, then have someone imitate the king to stir up the people's anger. In this way, the king's army and the rebel army will have a big fight. On the one hand, Crocodile can threaten the king and obtain the historical text stele. On the other hand, after cleaning up the mess, with Crocodile's current reputation, he can naturally seize the country."

"What a well-crafted plan!"Les sighed, but loosened his grip on Robin's neck.

"Although Crocodile and I have irreconcilable conflicts, this does not mean that we have to fight to the death. I know that you and Crocodile are just partners, there is no love to speak of, and we even suspect each other. So, we can cooperate."

Robin touched her neck, her eyes meaningful, cooperation? This coincided with her idea.

"Tell me about it"

"Just follow Crocodile's plan, when you go back and report, tell them that we have been killed by you, and when Crocodile sends people to take action, I will expose Crocodile's true face in public. In this way, the people will know the truth, and I will have a reason to take action against Crocodile. When I defeat Crocodile, I will ask the king to let you read the historical text."

Hearing this, Robin couldn't help but said:"The moment you exposed Crocodile, I was killed by the furious Crocodile."

Les smiled and said:"Crocodile still has hope at that time, and you are still needed to translate the historical text. I believe Crocodile will not be so narrow-minded."

"Then can you guarantee to defeat Crocodile? If you fail, when I tell you the content of the historical text, Crocodile and I will have a falling out. I may not be able to defeat Crocodile, and I will probably die by then."

"Of course, I can't guarantee this, but you can only trust me, right?"

"Aren't you afraid that I will tell Crocodile everything when I return? This way, not only will I be safe, but your plan will also fail." Robin said calmly.
