As a living person, what bad thoughts can I have?
Takumi secretly thought shamelessly in his heart, completely selectively forgetting about the Highschool of the Dead world, the Harry Potter world, and the Black Bullet world.
Robin didn't know what was going on in Takumi's heart. After listening to Takumi's explanation, Robin was still very speechless.
There is a militant in your family who is bored. Does this also justify your involvement in other worlds?!
Although she did feel that it would be a good thing if Dimension City sent troops to deal with some pirates who did all kinds of evil. But this kind of action without even saying hello still made Robin a little wary.
She just felt that Dimension City's approach was a bit arrogant.
Robin took a deep breath to calm down before continuing to ask: "So, is that the purpose of that army?"
As for being arrogant, judging this is obviously not something she is qualified to do. She is just a small person and does not have the strength to make Dimension City listen to her.
After living in the gray area for so many years, Robin has already learned what it means to act within one's capabilities. For things that are beyond her ability, even if she doesn't like it, she can't change anything, so she shouldn't meddle in other people's business. All she can do now is to inquire about the situation so that she can avoid danger in advance and protect herself.
Takumi nodded: "For now, it's really just that."
"At present?"
"Yes, after we understand enough about the One Piece world in the future, the measures that Dimension City will take are likely to change."
Having said that, Takumi also gave Robin a heads-up to prepare her mentally.
"Well, I understand."
Robin thought for a moment and understood what Takumi meant. This meant that he had no intention of taking drastic action against the One Piece world now, but that might not be the case in the future.
In this regard, Robin was helpless and did not say anything. After all, the dominance lies with Dimension City, but her One Piece world is just meat on the chopping board. How Dimension City wants to cook it is entirely up to them.
Thinking of this, Robin couldn't help but feel a little sad. This kind of situation reminded her of her hometown.
The current Dimension City and the One Piece world are very similar to the situation between Ohara and the World Government back then. There is also a huge difference in strength, and one party has the absolute initiative. The weak one can only be slaughtered by others.
Seeing Robin's sad expression, Takumi knew that she must be thinking about something bad, and quickly comforted:
"But you don't have to be nervous about this. In fact, generally speaking, being interfered with by Dimension City is not a bad thing."
"At the very least, we will not take action against innocent people (Countries in Highschool of the Dead: ???). Even if it is profitable, we will not engage in such low-level things as fishing in troubled waters, and will even provide some assistance."
"Currently, there are two worlds under Dimension City that have established a new order. You can go to these two worlds and see them for yourself when you have time. You will know after seeing them."
When Robin heard this, her attention was also attracted. She was not surprised that Dimension City had taken action against other worlds. However, after listening to Takumi's words, she couldn't help but become curious about these two worlds.
Since Takumi dares to let her go and take a look, it means that Dimension City's interference in the two worlds is benign. At the very least, Dimension City has done better than the previous rulers, and there is nothing shameful about it.
"Okay, I'll go over and have a look."
Robin agreed to Takumi's suggestion. Instead of worrying blindly, it would be better to go on a field trip and see the ready-made examples with her own eyes.
"I will be free tomorrow. I wonder if the City Lord will have time to make arrangements?"
"Tomorrow?"
"Yes, I've been avoiding the limelight here lately."
As she said that, Robin couldn't help but look at Takumi with some resentment. To be honest, she didn't expect that the preparations she had made before would be used so quickly.
"Um? What's going on with you?" Takumi looked a little confused.
"Thanks to a certain battleship, I now have to jump ship."
Robin explained to Takumi quietly. It turned out that the problem was caused by the Archangel.
Not only was the Archangel in the news, but during its constant activities and appearances, some of its firepower configuration was also exposed. It was captured not long ago, the moment when its main gun fired through an island. This makes people wonder whether the Archangel is the legendary Ancient Weapon Pluton.
After all, ordinary ships do not have such terrifying firepower, and the Archangel itself is strange enough. And then, not to mention that the World Government issued a bounty of billions for the Archangel that day...
Those who were originally thinking about Pluton also took action after hearing the news. Among them, Crocodile is naturally indispensable.
However, Crocodile did not know the origin of the Archangel and believed those speculative rumors, but Robin recognized the Archangel as a battleship from Dimension City.
Robin did not want to, nor dared to, go against the Archangel. Dimension City is her perfect hiding place. Attacking the Archangel will undoubtedly offend Dimension City. If Dimension City doesn't let her in then, wouldn't it be a huge loss?!
So, Robin took advantage of the time when the Baroque Works gathered members to take action, and slipped away, hiding in Dimension City as originally planned.
Robin also knew the consequences of betraying Crocodile. She couldn't go back for the time being, so she could only live here in Dimension City for a normal period of time to avoid the limelight.
Although she had prepared this escape plan before, she didn't want to leave Baroque Works just yet. After all, she hasn't found her next home. She was inadvertently put in a tough spot by Dimension City this time, so she has some resentment towards Takumi.
"Ah this..."
Takumi was also speechless, and he didn't expect that Robin could be tricked by this.
"Ahem~! Well, if you want to go to those two worlds, you don't really need any special arrangements. I can just approve the pass. Or, you can also contact people in those two worlds through the dimensional terminal."
Takumi abruptly changed the topic very quickly, and then stood up.
"That's it, if there's nothing else, I'll go do other things first."
After saying that, Takumi ran away without waiting for Robin to react, leaving Robin alone in the hall, confused in the wind.
"..."
Seeing that Takumi had just slipped away, Robin was speechless, but she didn't dwell on anything, got up and left the hall, heading towards the house she had just rented.
Although Robin was a little resentful about being put in this position, she actually didn't care too much. Because Dimension City is very safe for her; staying in Dimension City allows her to live with peace of mind.
From this point of view, there is actually nothing wrong with this. It just allows her to have some time to recuperate physically and mentally, to repair the psychological damage caused by years of being hunted.
