"I am Monkey D. Luffy!"
Boom!
When this voice sounded.
All the CP9 members present seemed to be struck by lightning, their bodies trembling violently.
Everyone's pupils instantly contracted to a tiny point, trembling uncontrollably.
At the same time, cold sweat drenched their entire bodies.
It was as if someone had thrown them all into an extremely cold ice cave, making them feel inexplicably chilling.
And Spandam's expression was even more terrified, his eyeballs bulging, his mouth slightly open, two lines of snot hanging, his body trembling uncontrollably.
After a moment of daze, he was as if electrocuted, suddenly throwing the den den mushi in his hand.
His body leaned back, and he sat down on the ground.
Supporting his body with both hands, he shivered.
Seeing this scene, Franky immediately felt incredibly refreshed and couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Ugh hahahaha..."
And Robin, at the moment she heard that voice, her body also trembled, her lost eyes refocused, and she looked up in astonishment at the den den mushi that had fallen to the ground.
She murmured Luffy's name.
"Luffy..."
Just then, the voice from the den den mushi sounded again.
The voice was much softer.
"Robin!"
"We are on the roof of the court across from you, come out!"
After saying a word to Robin, Luffy added.
"Whoever dares to stop her..."
"...Die!!!"
When saying the latter sentence, Luffy's tone was extremely deep and sinister, causing Spandam and all CP9 members to tremble uncontrollably again, their hearts filled with extreme fear.
And Robin stared blankly at the den den mushi, tears welling up in her eyes.
However, she remained motionless and silent.
Seeing this, Franky immediately looked puzzled.
Looking at Robin, he asked.
"What are you still hesitating about, Nico Robin?"
"I know you agreed to the Government's terms and were brought here for your companions."
"But didn't that scoundrel Spandam just tear up the agreement?"
"Even if you obediently comply, you won't save anyone!"
"Your only way out now is to escape with Straw Hat!"
Seeing that Robin still hadn't moved, Franky frowned, his voice also becoming deeper, slowly saying each word.
"It seems you are still avoiding something!"
"If you keep avoiding, they won't be able to save you!"
At this point, Franky's gaze suddenly caught sight of a golden den den mushi beside Spandam.
This was something that had fallen from Spandam when he was so scared that he sat down on the ground.
And Franky was now looking at that golden den den mushi and said.
"Is that what you're avoiding, Nico Robin?"
"I heard you talking about something called Buster Call earlier!"
"Although I don't know what that is, you were clearly scared when you saw Spandam take out this golden den den mushi just now!"
"If you're scared because of this, then I'll destroy it for you!"
As Franky finished speaking, he suddenly pounced forward.
He wanted to bite the den den mushi with his mouth, bite it to death, or swallow it directly.
However, just as Franky was about to pounce on Spandam, he suddenly saw a figure flash within the room.
The next second, he was sent flying, crashing heavily into the glass wall on the side.
He smashed a large hole in the glass wall and landed on the outer corridor.
And opposite that corridor was the court that Luffy had just mentioned.
At the same time, inside the room.
At the spot where Franky had just been sent flying, Rob Lucci stood with his hands in his pockets, his expression cold and stern, looking down indifferently at Spandam, who was sitting on the ground, lost in fear and daze, and spoke faintly.
"Although I don't want to be nosy, it's about time you woke up, Chief!"
"Now... there are enemies provoking our World Government."
"We can't just sit idly by, can we?!"
Spandam heard this and raised his head blankly, looking up at Rob Lucci.
At this moment, Rob Lucci looked incredibly tall, his body imposing, appearing very reliable and trustworthy.
Then Rob Lucci continued.
"Give the order quickly! Chief!"
"Order us to attack... and eliminate the enemy!"
When Rob Lucci finished speaking, his eyes burned with surging fighting spirit.
Since joining CP9, he had been hailed as the strongest in CP9 for eight hundred years.
With such a great reputation, how could he not have the pride and arrogance of a master?
Now there was someone equally renowned provoking them outside, how could he stand by and do nothing?
And Rob Lucci's strong fighting spirit and confidence deeply infected Spandam.
At this moment, Rob Lucci was like his strongest backing.
Making Spandam immediately feel full of confidence.
The fear and dread in his heart began to gradually dissipate at this moment.
Especially when he recalled the golden den den mushi that Franky had mentioned earlier.
He suddenly turned his head to look at the golden den den mushi that had fallen near his waist.
And at the moment he saw this den den mushi, a huge stone seemed to fall in his heart.
"That's right! What do I have to be afraid of?!"
"Although the Straw Hat is strong, CP9 is not to be trifled with either!"
"Especially Rob Lucci, he is the strongest in CP9 for eight hundred years!"
"With such a group of top experts by my side, what else do I have to fear?"
Spandam thought this in his heart, then picked up the golden den den mushi beside him and held it in his palm.
Looking at the den den mushi, the corners of his mouth slowly curved upwards at this moment.
"What's more, I still have this secret weapon!"
"Five Marineford Vice Admirals, and a super unit of 10,000 elite soldiers consisting of Marineford Colonels and Lieutenant Colonels."
"The 10,000 guards of Enies Lobby are simply incomparable to them!"
"Such power can easily destroy any country in the world."
"In the face of such powerful force."
"What is the Straw Hat?"
"What is Straw Hat?"
When his thoughts reached this point, Spandam suddenly burst into laughter.
"Wah hahahaha..."
At this moment, the fear in his heart completely dissipated.
He no longer had any fear of Luffy, but rather a sense of disdain.
After a period of laughter, Spandam suddenly got up from the ground, then looked at Rob Lucci and called his name.
"Lucci!"
Then, he looked at the other CP9 members on the other side and shouted.
"CP9!"
After gathering all their gazes on himself, Spandam spoke confidently with a smile on his lips.
"I now, in the name of the CP9 Chief, order you..."
"To the Straw Hat... kill without mercy!"
"But before that..."

"I am Monkey D. Luffy!"

"CP9!"
After gathering all their gazes on himself, Spandam spoke confidently with a smile on his lips.
"I now, in the name of the CP9 Chief, order you..."
"To the Straw Hat... kill without mercy!"
"But before that..."
Halfway through his sentence, Spandam suddenly turned to look at Robin, who was still sitting on the ground, staring blankly at the den den mushi from which Luffy's voice emanated. A playful smile appeared on his lips as he chuckled.
"I've thought of something interesting."
With that, he walked over and roughly pulled Robin up from the ground.
Then, grabbing Robin's hair, he pulled her head back, forcing her to look up.
Next, looking at Robin's pained and despairing expression, he curled his lips slightly and said each word distinctly.
"Nico Robin!"
"Right now, Straw Hat is outside saying he's going to save you and take you back!"
"But why don't you go back to them, why don't you respond to them…"
"They probably don't know yet, do they?!"
At this point, Spandam chuckled and held the Golden den den mushi in his hand up to Robin's face.
Then, with a playful smile, he said,
"The terror of the Buster Call, I'm afraid you'll never forget it!"
Hearing those words, and seeing the Golden den den mushi before her,
Robin's pupils visibly trembled, and her eyes flickered with fear and dread.
This fear, which had taken root deep within her since she was eight years old, was something she could never forget, even after all this time!
Spandam was extremely pleased with Robin's reaction.
He burst into laughter.
"Wahahahahaha…"
"Your reaction is truly delightful, Nico Robin!"
After an excited exclamation,
Spandam gradually reined in his smile, his face now bearing only a hint of playfulness, as he looked at Robin and spoke each word clearly.
"Let me see!"
"Let me see you cruelly abandon Straw Hat and the others… and their heartbroken despair!"
"Such a scene would surely be wonderful!"
Spandam imagined the scene that would give him explosive satisfaction.
He fantasized about the moment when both Robin and the Straw Hat would be desperate and helpless, and then he would have CP9 kill the Straw Hat at that very moment.
This way, the Straw Hat would die in despair and sorrow, and Nico Robin's spirit would collapse on the spot.
And he would witness two scenes that would bring him heavenly pleasure.
Just thinking about such a scene was enough to make Spandam incredibly excited.
He couldn't help but shiver with excitement, his expression one of extreme pleasure and comfort.
After his fantasy, Spandam dragged Robin by her hair, disregarding her feelings, and forcibly pushed her towards the hole Franky had just made.
Rob Lucci and the other CP9 members followed closely behind.
Upon reaching the corridor outside,
Spandam immediately saw the Straw Hat standing on the opposite rooftop, separated by a deep underwater chasm in the middle.
And Luffy and the others naturally saw Robin, dragged by her hair by Spandam and brought into their view.
Seeing this scene, anger instantly surged in the hearts of everyone in the Straw Hat.
But everyone remained still, simply gazing across.
Luffy also remained silent, merely pulling his hat brim lower, the shadow obscuring his vision.
On the corridor of the Tower of Justice!
Spandam dragged Robin by her hair, then shoved her forward, causing her to hit an indentation in the railing.
Then, he loudly called out to Luffy across the way.
"Straw Hat, I've brought Nico Robin to you!"
"If you have anything to say, say it now!"
Having said that, Spandam chuckled and stepped aside, just waiting for the show to begin.
Meanwhile, Robin stood at the indentation in the railing, staring blankly at Luffy across the way, and the Straw Hat beside him.
After gazing at these companions whom she deeply loved and trusted for a long time, Robin suddenly furrowed her brows, bit her teeth tightly, and her eyes flickered.
The next second.
She opened her mouth and screamed at the top of her lungs across the way,
"Didn't I tell you?!"
"I won't go back to you guys!"
"You guys go back!"
"I don't want to see you anymore!"
"Why are you trying to save me?!"
"When did I ask you to do this?"
Robin questioned Luffy and the others again and again, denying their actions repeatedly.
And her emotions became more and more agitated.
Until the very end, her body was trembling uncontrollably.
"Hoo…"
Robin exhaled, closed her eyes, her expression despairing and pained.
The next second.
She suddenly opened her eyes, as if using all her strength, looking at Luffy across the way, and let out a desperate scream that echoed through the heavens and earth.
"I already…"
"…don't want to live anymore!!!"
This desperate cry echoed through the heavens and earth, reverberating in everyone's ears, lingering long and refusing to dissipate.
After letting out that final desperate cry, Robin exhaled slowly, her brow slightly furrowed, and her eyes slowly closed.
At this moment, she had completely given up on herself.
She had lost the desire to live.
Hearing Robin say these words, Franky, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but question her loudly.
"Nico Robin!"
"What exactly are you planning to do?"
"They risked their lives to save you!"
Robin, hearing Franky's words, merely replied coldly,
"It's their wishful thinking!"
Franky, upon hearing this, immediately became incredibly agitated, frowning and roaring,
"What did you say?!"
"Are you kidding me 293… mmm mmm…"
After a roar, he was kicked into the wall by Kaku, cutting him off.
And Spandam, upon hearing Robin's words, couldn't help but clap his hands together happily, laughing heartily.
"Wahahahahaha…"
"Interesting!"
"This is truly too interesting!"
"Nico Robin!"
"You really didn't disappoint me!"
"The Straw Hat traveled thousands of miles to save you, only to be rejected at the last moment."
"There's nothing more interesting than this!"
"Just imagining how they'll look after you reject them already makes my whole body tremble with excitement!"
"Wahahahahaha…"
After an excited burst of laughter, Spandam gradually reined in his smile and composed himself.
But his face still held a look of delight as he spoke again.
"Alright!"
"Let's see Straw Hat now, heartbroken and weeping on his knees!"
Spandam said excitedly as he walked to an indentation and looked across.
However, to his surprise, the Straw Hat did not cry on their knees as he had imagined.
Everyone remained in their original posture, standing quietly there.
Especially Straw Hat, whom he was most focused on, was still standing there ramrod straight.
The shadow of his hat brim fell across his face, making it impossible for Spandam to see his expression.
Such a sight immediately caused Spandam to frown in dissatisfaction.
He wanted to see Straw Hat in despair and sorrow, but clearly, his expectations were not met now.
Just as he was thinking about how to achieve his desired scene, Luffy spoke up.
"Robin!"
Luffy called Robin's name and looked up at her.
And Robin, upon hearing Luffy's voice, opened her eyes and looked at Luffy.
Her expression was still pained, her eyes filled with faint tears.
Then, she heard Luffy speak.
"Do you still remember?"
"Even back in Alabasta."
"Your life… was already mine!"
Listening to Luffy's words, Robin couldn't help but recall the time in Alabasta.
At that time, Crocodile had revealed her past, causing her to lose the desire to seek trustworthy companions.
And because she couldn't find the true history she desperately sought, she lost her last reason to live.
However, just as she was about to end her life, it was Luffy who stopped her, giving her a reason to live.
She still remembered Luffy's words, which she would never forget.
"Robin!"
"I don't care what you were like before!"
"Since I said I'd let you board my ship, then you are our companion."
"We will trust you unconditionally."
"So…"
"Give your life to me!!!"
"Don't do such a foolish thing!!!"
It was precisely these words that rekindled Robin's hope of living and, at that moment, entrusted her life to Luffy.
