[If we reach 100 Power Stones this week, I'll release 10 bonus chapters as a thank-you to everyone's support!]
....
So,
After a brief pause,
The destruction began to continue.
Sakazuki seemed to have vented all his anger and frustration on this island that "did not exist in the world".
The ignorant islanders who had thought they were safe were once again in panic.
The sky was filled with magma bombs, like a volcanic eruption, falling from the sky to the ground, and then causing violent explosions and high temperatures.
No one can survive this catastrophic power!
After all, not everyone is called Ronan.
"Why! Why would the navy massacre civilians?!"
"Damn it!! I only came to Ohara to buy some goods!!"
"I'm a noble from the neighboring island, and you guys...Ah!!!"
No matter whether you are innocent or not, indiscriminate destruction is going on.
And in this apocalyptic scene, two figures passed by, witnessing this land destroyed by arrogance (ideals).
From time to time, he would use Den Den Mushi to record things. No one wanted to care, and no one dared to care. After all, Ronan had promised the Five Elders that he would only check in and collect the information, and would not leak the information recorded by Den Den Mushi.
So,
Whether it was the CP or the navy, or even the lava bombs falling from the sky, they all avoided the ten-meter distance between the two of them, intentionally or unintentionally.
In this erased area, two figures forcibly drew a ten-meter safety line.
This magical scene was naturally quickly realized by the people around who were fleeing in all directions and desperate for survival.
They crowded together crazily, even if it meant stepping on their former friends and relatives, in order to squeeze into that safe circle where they could survive.
Seeing this scene, both the navy and CP9 dared not move forward. They could only stand on the periphery with embarrassed expressions and kill those who were squeezed out.
Seeing this, the people became more convinced that as long as they stayed with these two unknown people, they would be safe.
"Hey...I'm not some savior."
Looking at the refugees who were crowding over and almost rubbing against him, Ronan raised his eyebrows.
He is not some saint who would show kindness for no reason and go against the world government for insignificant people.
The only people to blame for their deaths are those daring scholars, or at the very least, the World Government.
Anyway, it's not Ronan's fault.
"clatter..."
With a crisp snap of his fingers, the noise within the ten-meter area around Ronan and Mihawk was completely eliminated.
A crowded crowd instantly appeared ten meters away. After the navy and CPs reacted, they immediately took action.
However, when the crowd tried to rush into the safety circle again, they discovered in despair that every time they approached the ten-meter safety circle, they would be inexplicably teleported to a distance ranging from tens to hundreds of meters away!
But even so, there are still people who refuse to give up and stubbornly attack again and again.
"What a tenacious will to survive..."
Mihawk watched everything coldly and couldn't help but sigh.
But as aloof as he is, he wouldn't meddle in other people's business at this time.
"It's almost time to leave. The next time I come to Ohara will be in a few months.
By then, this place should have become an uninhabited desert island."
Ronan took the Den Den Mushi back into his arms, and then, as if sensing something, he looked at Mihawk with a strange look in his eyes:
"Besides, it seems like some kid has sneaked onto our ship, Hawkeye."
…
An hour ago,
Ohara, Island Back Forest,
A giant with a painful expression on his face was running across the land. Occasionally, bombardments landed on the mountain, but they could not stop him.
In his palm, a little girl was crying heartbreakingly.
"Please, Jaguar D. Saul, I want to be with my mom!!"
"No, Robin, you have to live!
Tell everyone Ohara fought the world!!!"
Jaguar D. Saul will risk his life to complete Olvia's request!
But relying on the giants' tall figures, he could see clearly that Ohara had been completely surrounded.
With Sakazuki leading the Buster Call, it is impossible for him to let any ship leave.
Originally, relying on Kuzan's confusion and softness, he was lucky enough to escape from here when Sakazuki did not land on the island.
But Sakazuki is different. At this moment, he just wants to destroy everything to complete the mission!
what to do...
what to do...
Jaguar D. Saul opened his mouth wide and looked around in confusion.
Suddenly, he found a glimmer of hope under a cliff.
Instead of docking at the port, the Oro Jackson was parked under this cliff. With the wide range of Ronan's Observation Haki, it was not afraid of being stolen.
At this time, Jaguar D. Saul saw the ship and a bold plan emerged in his mind.
Although there is a great risk, this is the last chance!
At least...
If you encounter a [Black Gun], you might be able to survive, but if you stay on the island, you will definitely die!
After making the decision immediately, Jaguar D. Saul took a running start and jumped straight into the sea under the cliff amidst little Robin's screams of weightlessness.
Jaguar D. Saul, half of his body submerged in the sea, placed Robin on the deck of the Oro Jackson and said with some worry on his face:
"Robin, hide in the cabin!"
Upon hearing this, little Robin cried and lay on the edge of the boat, stretching out her hands to Jaguar D. Saul, her little face full of sadness: "No, don't leave me here alone!"
However, despite Robin's pleading, Jaguar D. Saul still hardened his heart and slowly retreated away from the Oro Jackson.
"Robin, listen carefully. Right now, in the entire Ohara, the only one who can protect you from the World Government and the Navy is [Black Gun] Ronan.
Only if you stay on this ship will they not dare to attack you.
You must live, Robin."
So Jaguar D. Saul left, and Robin didn't know where he went.
The only thing she could do was to sneak into the cabin, find a wooden barrel and get in, just as Jaguar D. Saul had instructed her before leaving.
The little body shrank, tears streaming down her face.
I cried and fell asleep in there.
I don't know how long it took,
The sound of footsteps startled her awake. She was so nervous that she dared not move. The footsteps seemed very close, and she could faintly hear a conversation:
"Next stop, let's go see the old man...
After all, we haven't seen each other for so many years, it's time to go back to our hometown in New World."
"Do we have to go through Upside Down Mountain and Fishman Island?"
"No, I just came out of the Sabaody Archipelago. I have to go back for coating and so on. It's too troublesome."
"Let's just go through the Calm Belt, or if the distance is shorter, we can fly over the Red Earth Continent with the boat."
The conversation continued for a while, followed by the sound of doors opening and closing.
Little Robin thought the two had left, so he breathed a sigh of relief and instantly felt relieved.
But in the next moment,
The lid above my head suddenly opened!
A handsome face with a wicked smile appeared above his head, frightening Little Robin so much that his face turned pale and he almost fainted:
"I just kidded you. I found you~"
