The petals on the arm turned jet-black and folded in half.

Crack!

"Ahh!!!"

With the sound of bones snapping, the mysterious man in the mask and cloak let out a piercing scream. His eyes, hidden under the mask, were bloodshot.

Why?! Why would Nico Robin attack him directly?

According to the intelligence CP9 had gathered, Nico Robin, as a survivor of Ohara, had witnessed the devastating power of the Buster Call—the war machine capable of obliterating everything in its path.

Having seen the horror that completely wiped Ohara off the map, Buster Call had left a deep scar in Robin's heart. The fear of that destructive power and the World Government should have been ingrained in her very being.

After all, Nico Robin had lived her life on the run, burdened with a massive bounty from the World Government. Using her wits, she survived in the dark underworld, always fearful of the Buster Call.

Based on CP9's assessment, the moment Robin's identity was exposed, there should have been no resistance. She would've been too terrified to oppose them. At most, she might not cooperate fully, but never would she risk revealing herself to the Entei Pirates.

So, why now? Why did Nico Robin dare to attack CP9 head-on upon hearing its name? And how could she be this strong?

Even though his Iron Body technique was hastily executed, it should've been enough to withstand her attack. But it wasn't.

"Damn it! Don't underestimate CP9!!!"

The man roared in rage, his muscles tightening as his body surged with strength. The petals wrapped around him could no longer fold in on themselves. With a sudden move, his right hand sliced through the air, as though a door had opened in the atmosphere.

If he could just enter that door, he could escape Robin's ability!

He gritted his teeth, muscles quivering as he prepared to make a break for it.

"An enemy with Devil Fruit powers?" Raki, standing nearby with a bundle of ingredients in her arms, narrowed her eyes.

In the blink of an eye, beautiful feathers, flickering with strange flames, appeared on Raki's arms.

Whoosh!

In an instant, Raki's form blurred, and the mysterious man in the mask found her standing directly in front of him.

"A Zoan-type Devil Fruit? No! This is... a Mythical Zoan!" he gasped, terror filling his eyes. The feathers on Raki's arms, combined with the unnatural flames, made her even more fearsome. Mythical Zoan abilities were rarer than even the Logia-type Devil Fruits.

His thoughts raced. Damn it! She's moving faster than Soru! There's no time to enter the door!

His bloodshot eyes widened as he tensed every muscle in his body.

"Iron Body! Steel!"

With a low growl, he braced himself for the impending impact. Sure, it was a rare Mythical Zoan, but Devil Fruits only mattered depending on the user. And she was just a girl without even a bounty. What did she know about combat?

He relied on his enhanced Iron Body technique—Iron Body: Steel—the strongest defensive move in CP9's arsenal.

There's no way she can—

Boom!

Pfft!

His vision blurred as his eyes rolled back, blood and fragments of his burning organs spewing from his mouth.

How? How could his Iron Body: Steel, their strongest defense, fail to block this attack?

That flame... It burned through muscles, bones, even internal organs.

What kind of power is this?!

Boom!

The man collapsed to the ground, his mask shattering to reveal his face: it was Blueno, a member of CP9.

Cough! Cough!

Blueno tried to move but found himself paralyzed. The strange flames continued to burn through his muscles, bones, and organs, forcing him to cough up more blood and shredded organs.

The waves of excruciating pain from the flames were more than even a hardened fighter like Blueno could bear.

"Don't bother," Raki said, her voice calm. "My ability is the Bird-Bird Fruit, Mythical Zoan-type, Suzaku form. These flames aren't natural; they are the flames of Suzaku, capable of burning away your physical energy, muscles, bones, and organs. They won't stop until you're reduced to ash."

There was a hint of pride in Raki's voice. This was the strongest power her captain, Ace, had given her. Without Haki to protect them, anyone caught by Suzaku's flames would face death.

The flame of Suzaku wasn't like the fire of the Mera-Mera Fruit. It didn't have a high temperature. Instead, it was a strange flame that burned away the very essence of its target—muscles, bones, organs, even Haki itself.

This was a power rivaling that of the Four Emperors' Kaido, with his Fish-Fish Fruit, Mythical Zoan-type Azure Dragon form.

"My goodness, what a nightmare..." Blueno's body was wracked with pain as the flames spread, devouring him piece by piece. His strongest defense, the Iron Body technique, was useless against this flame.

In the face of this overwhelming power, his only fate was to be consumed and destroyed.

Terror and agony flooded Blueno's mind, filling every fiber of his being.

"Nico Robin!" he shouted hoarsely, mustering the last of his strength. "Do you know what attacking CP9 means?! Are you ready to make an enemy of the World Government?"

"If you do this, not only you but your entire crew will be reduced to ash by the World Government!"

Despite the agony, Blueno clung to the hope that his words might save him.

But as he screamed, the flames only burned hotter, and he coughed up more charred fragments of his organs.

Seeing the bits of his body aflame, Blueno's eyes widened in horror.

His internal organs... they were melting!

"Make an enemy of the World Government?"

Robin's red lips curled into a slight smile as she heard this.

If she had encountered CP9 in the past, she might not have had the courage to resist. After all, CP9 is part of CIPHER-POL, a covert unit that directly serves the World Government. In many ways, CP9 represents the power of the World Government.

Facing such a colossal force like the World Government, the old Robin would have been too afraid to even think of fighting back. 

But now, things have changed.

"And do you know who you'll offend if you touch me?"

Robin looked down at Blueno, her mature face brightening with a radiant smile as she slowly crossed her arms.

"!!!"

Blueno looked up with difficulty, shocked by the absence of fear on Robin's smiling face. She wasn't afraid of the World Government.

"You'll be offending the future king of these seas!"

"Whoosh!"

In an instant, countless petal-like arms sprouted around Blueno, his eyes wide with terror.

"Stop, stop!"

Blueno screamed in fear.

Crack!

The sound of bones breaking echoed as Blueno's body was violently twisted and crushed by Robin's petal arms.

Pfft!

A spurt of blood, mixed with burning fragments of his internal organs, shot from Blueno's mouth as his eyes rolled back, turning completely white.

Thud!

His body fell limp to the ground, blood staining the surface before being consumed by Suzaku's burning flames. Blueno lay motionless, his body reduced to nothing.

"My captain is the most fearsome man on these seas. You provoke his crew, and you expect to survive? CP9?"

Robin's lips curved into a slight smirk as she glanced down at Blueno's lifeless form. 

Her captain, Portgas D. Ace, was a man who could stand toe-to-toe with the World Government's mightiest force, the Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Aokiji. He possessed a power unlike any other—a true conqueror of the seas!

And as his historian, Robin was no longer the woman she once was.

Anyone who dared to challenge the Entei Pirates would face one inevitable fate: death!

The majesty of the future King of the Seas could never be questioned.

As a member of Ace's crew, she too had a duty to uphold the pride of the Entei Pirates.

"Well, it seems he's still breathing. Let's bring him to Ace and see what he decides to do with him."

Robin smiled, knowing that while the crew could dish out punishment, the final judgment always rested with their captain.

"Right."

Raki smiled too as she withdrew Suzaku's flames. She had been careful not to let Blueno die immediately; otherwise, a man like him, without the protection of Haki, would have been incinerated by the Suzaku flames.

Meanwhile, the crowd on the nearby streets had already fled, terrified by the fierce battle.

"This guy's abilities are interesting... a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, perhaps?"

Robin used her powers to lift Blueno, lost in thought. Being able to open doors in midair... could this be a rare spatial ability from a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit?

This kind of power would be perfect for Nojiko's sniping skills.

Maybe Ace could decide what to do with the Devil Fruit...

A slight smile crept across Robin's lips. This was her first significant contribution to the Entei Pirates.

"Huh? Over there with Robin and Raki..."

Nami, who was walking toward the meeting point, suddenly stopped.

"Robin and Raki? What's going on?" she asked.

Vivi's Observation Haki was active as she scanned the area.

But Nami's Observation Haki, after being amplified by the Thunder Fruit, had a much wider detection range. So she asked curiously.

"Fighted with a strange guy, CP9."

Nami murmured.

Vivi muttered, "CP9? I've only ever heard of CP1 through CP8. What is CP9?"

Vivi frowned slightly. As a secret spy agency of the World Government, CIPHER POL was only known to her in the numbers NO.1 through NO.8. She had never heard of a NO.9, not even during her time in Alabasta or at the World Summit with her father, Cobra.

Ace smiled lightly and explained, "CP9, CIPHER POL's unnumbered unit, is headquartered at Enies Lobby, one of the three main institutions under the World Government. It is the strongest of them all."

A look of satisfaction flashed in Ace's eyes. "It was known for a long time that CP9 might target Robin," he said.

To this end, Ace had locked his Observation Haki on Robin. Although his range was not as vast as Nami's, whose Observation Haki, enhanced by the Thunder Fruit, could detect a small country, Ace's mastery allowed him to briefly "see" the future and anticipate Robin's location.

Ace had also "seen" Robin's actions and "heard" her words, which made him quite satisfied. As a member of his crew—who already possessed overlord-level power and aimed for the throne—Robin had shown the necessary courage.

Anyone who dares to provoke the Entei Pirates will die.

Why are the Four Emperors able to rule the latter half of the Grand Line and the New World like emperors?

It's not only due to their immense strength but also because anyone who challenges their authority is swiftly dealt with. Any force that dares to provoke them will be wiped off the map. This is the kind of authority an overlord ruling the seas should have.

And the Entei Pirates are like that now.

"It turns out that this is CP9, and it actually targeted Robin. Is it because of Robin's abnormality?" Nami mused.

"Whatever their reasons or their organization, if they dare to offend the Entei Pirates, we'll just kill them!"

Vivi clenched her little fists and spoke loudly. She had already embraced her role as a crew member of the Entei Pirates.

"To attack a crew member of the Entei Pirates is to issue a direct challenge. It's an affront to the authority of our captain,"

After the Shichibukai incident, Vivi knew well that sailing these seas required unwavering respect. The Shichibukai commanded fear because their majesty was unchallenged. Once that respect is broken, countless others will seek to overthrow them. Such a thing could never be allowed!

Vivi's body began to emit a faint aura of Haki.

"Vivi, you seem fired up," Nami remarked, smiling at her.

Normally reluctant to cause trouble, Nami's eyes were now flashing with electricity. She wasn't even afraid of the World Government's strongest forces, like Admiral Aokiji.

This time, CP9 had dared to attack Robin, provoke the Entei Pirates, and challenge Ace's authority. Previously, when they faced Aokiji, Nami could only watch Ace from a distance, holding back her anger. But for a subordinate organization of the World Government to challenge Ace's authority repeatedly was intolerable.

"Hehe," Vivi giggled slightly, a blush forming on her cheeks as she too exuded an aura of the strong. She puffed out her chest, determined to live up to Ace's expectations.

"Let's go," Ace said, "First, we'll head to the Galley-La Company to handle the modifications for the going merry. Then…"

The corners of Ace's mouth lifted slightly as his eyes flashed with the purple-black aura of Conqueror's Haki.

"Enies Lobby can be removed from the World Government's three major institutions."

Nami and Vivi watched Ace walk away. They exchanged a glance, their eyes glowing with excitement.

There were no questions, no unnecessary words. This was the order of the captain of the Entei Pirates, the future king of these seas!

Nami took out her transponder snail and contacted Robin, Raki, Conis, and Tashigi, instructing them to head straight to the Galley-La Company to rendezvous.

Then, she followed in Ace's footsteps.
