Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 1366: Chapter 77: Return (6th Update)

After the three CP0 members left, Nico Robin felt her legs go weak. That tallest figure, she had seen once before, witnessed him slaughter a small nation just to track her down. He was nearly the shadow of her childhood.

”Eddie Cook.”

Robin murmured, her eyes filled with nothing but fear.

”Robin?”

Beside her, Little Thief Cat Nami embraced Robin. Being another woman, the meticulous Nami naturally noticed Robin’s abnormality.

”Luffy, let’s escape.”

Nami’s actions helped Robin calm down and made her realize she absolutely couldn’t stay on the island.

”You seem to need help?”

A woman in black tight clothes, with a cat tail at the coccyx, approached.

”Don’t ask who I am, soon the Navy will surround the island, follow me.”

It was Little Wildcat Mask who appeared, having witnessed the three shots that pierced through the auction house, thus knowing who killed the Celestial Dragon.

”I know the direction that madman is heading out to sea, we must not share the same course as him.”

The masked woman gestured to the Straw Hat Pirates to follow, directing them towards where the Sunny was docked.

”That madman?”

Though Luffy and the others were bewildered, they had to get back to the Sunny as soon as possible, so they could only go with the masked woman.

”Yes, a lunatic who even dares to kill a Celestial Dragon, all because of that bastard, otherwise there would’ve been a ’carnival’ here.”

The masked woman gritted her teeth in hatred.

”Don’t worry, he’s not interested in you, otherwise...”

Would the masked woman really be so kind? Helping the Straw Hat Pirates escape? In truth, the masked woman bore no malice, she just wanted to gain some benefits before the world ends.

The masked woman’s main task was to resist Kizaru and assist Tyrant·Kuma in helping the Straw Hat Pirates escape.

...

At sea, in an unknown sea area.

The ’Wild Potato’ sped across the sea, just from the name one could guess it was named by Bubu Wang.

A Mu looked up at the sky, having been pent-up underwater for several days, causing it to now gaze skyward whenever it had nothing to do.

The speed of the small fishing boat decreased a bit, Su Xiao lit a cigarette, he himself unsure of his current location, even less so would the World Government or Navy.

If there were no pursuers, Su Xiao only needed to drift on the sea for 12 hours to complete his task.

As time passed, the ’Wild Potato’ sailed steadily on the sea.

”Surprisingly smooth.”

Su Xiao drew two cards from his hand, tossing them onto the barrel.

Bubu Wang saw the pair of eights on the barrel, then looked at A Mu, its meaning clear: ”Play, Master, he only has one card left.”

A Mu glanced at the pair of twos in its hand, then shook its head like a rattle, refusing to play.

Seeing the cards on the barrel, Bubu Wang judged that A Mu had at least three twos, which made it roll its eyes in exasperation, meaning: ”We two are the farmers, the Master is the landlord, whose side are you even on?”

In Bubu Wang’s eyes of ’despair’, Su Xiao threw out a K from his hand. Seeing this K nearly made Bubu Wang faint on the spot, while A Mu... had two kings, the biggest hand.

When A Mu revealed its cards, Bubu Wang, utterly flustered, saw the unbelievable hand: double kings, four twos, four queens, four tens.

Seeing A Mu’s hand, Su Xiao cleared his throat, A Mu was unexpectedly honest.

With sea breezes blowing and a few seagulls flying past, just as Su Xiao picked up the playing cards on the barrel, his hand paused. Intuition brought up a strange feeling, a feeling that had occurred multiple times before, but Su Xiao didn’t yet know what it represented.

Thirty nautical miles away, a warship moved forward through the waves.

A woman in a white robe and mask sat at the ship’s bow.

”At this rate, we’ll never catch the culprit.”

The woman spoke, her gaze set on the distant direction of Su Xiao.

”Pursue with Geppo, only then do we have a chance.”

As soon as she finished speaking, her two companions leaped into the air.

Bang, bang, bang...

The three stepped through the air, rushing forward at high speed.

Seven hours after Su Xiao sniped the Celestial Dragon, the ’Wild Potato’, already utterly ’despaired’ of the card game, with Bubu Wang looking skyward, Su Xiao and A Mu were beside it, a person, a dog, and an ox in sync.

Clang!

A blue cleave slashed towards the fishing boat. Su Xiao drew Dragon Slash, cleaving ahead, as the blade aura flew out to meet the blue cleave.

With a snap, the two cleaves collided and shattered.

”Incredible stamina.”

Su Xiao came to the fishing boat’s stern, twisting the throttle, and the boat darted forward with a whoosh.

Regarding the three CP Department special agents chasing behind, Su Xiao was not surprised. These three had been pursuing for over an hour, but catching up to a small fishing boat fitted with a 300-horsepower motor proved difficult.

If this motor were mounted on a larger ship, its speed wouldn’t actually be fast, but the small fishing boat was different. Su Xiao worried the small fishing boat might fall apart, which wasn’t unwarranted as the boat already began to leak water.

Su Xiao controlled the direction, while Bubu Wang and A Mu used small buckets to bail water seeping into the boat.

Boom, boom...

The three CP members kept up their air chase, but the sea’s ’broken ship’ was too fast. Geppo’s speed had limits, and they couldn’t catch up in the short term.

Su Xiao had no interest in engaging these three CP0 members. If caught by them, things would get tricky, as the World Government wouldn’t send just these three; they were likely a vanguard.

In the chase and escape, 10 hours passed, leaving only 2 hours to complete the task.

Observing the CP Department agents struggling at the rear, Su Xiao’s expression wasn’t good. His small fishing boat was running out of time, as this was the best boat he could get in a short time.

Su Xiao stood on the boat, ready to counter the three agents’ Geppo slashes at any time, while Bubu Wang operated the motor, and A Mu bailed water.

Three silent agents advanced in the air, never uttering a word all along.

”Bubu, speed up.”

Upon hearing this, Bubu Wang twisted the motor’s throttle fully.

With a buzz, a bewildered Bubu Wang clung to the motor as it shot out, the ’Wild Potato’ collapsed with a crash, leaving Su Xiao and A Mu falling into the water.

The three agents felt rather content; they were about to collapse from exhaustion.

When the three agents reached above the small fishing boat’s remains, the sea was calm, with Su Xiao, Bubu Wang, and A Mu nowhere to be found.

This was the second escape plan: underwater, Su Xiao had prepared five escape plans, only needing two so far.

Among the three agents, the strongest was a Devil Fruit User, so the other two dove underwater.

A few minutes later, the two surfaced, shaking their heads at the airborne agent.

”Bastard.”

Agent Eddie Cook finally spoke.

Beneath the sea, Su Xiao sat on a ’bruised and battered’ Sea King. His luck was pretty good; after a few minutes underwater, he encountered a Sea King searching for food.

This was above Fishman Island, the sea with the most Sea Kings. The Ancient Weapon Sea King lies near Fishman Island, and she unknowingly attracts Sea Kings.

Seeing this unknown species of Sea King, Su Xiao knew he wouldn’t need to use his subsequent escape plans.

Two hours later, 190 meters underwater, Su Xiao took a flintlock gun out of the storage space, and the gun shattered instantly.
