Chapter 61 (2/2)

Soon afterwards she sat down in a café still in deep thoughts and was joined by Azul who wordlessly sat down at the table next to hers, with his back to hers, so she could quietly tell him about the man's words.

After listening attentively, Azul told her to go meet them and ask them at the meeting how many they are here in water 7, after which Azul would crash the party and take over so she wouldn't have to bother with this whole thing anymore than nescessary, making Robin exhale in relief.

As she stepped inside a group of four members, all covered in black suits greeted her with silence, making Robin nervous a little though she knew that Azul was watching everything from the shadows.

Taking a deep breath Robin asked: ”What do you want from me?”

”The world government has issued a missive for your arrest, should you ever appear in the reach of Cipher Pol. Should you resist we will first kill all members of the strawhats that you are a part of as it seems and afterwards execute you as well.” The leader of the group, a slim man standing in the middle, spoke up in a monotonous voice.

”I see. And what makes you think you can take on the strawhats with only four members? Or are there more of you here in water 7?” Robin tried to inquire carefully, hiding her true intentions behind a mask of arrogance, hoping the Cipher Pol agents would mistake it as confidence in the strawhats strength.

”.....No, there are no more members in water 7, though for those weaklings we will be more than enough.” the blond woman of the team spoke up before the leader could keep her from revealing unneeded information. Though she did and fullfilled the task Robin had received from Azul, making her grin a little, knowing that she was relieved from her duty.

The CP-agents, seeing her smile narrowed their eyes, not quite understanding what the woman before them was smiling about, until a shiver went down the spine of each CP-agent, widening their eyes as they saw a shadow fall over the group from behind them.

Turning around they spotted a big man with a bloodthirsty grin on his face. They tried to move their bodies but a pressure fell down on their shoulders a few of the members hadn't felt in years, igniting a deep fear that was hidden deep inside their minds from an event that had nearly cost them their lives in the past. And judging by the next words of the tall man before them they were right to connect the feeling that had errupted inside them with today bringing clear horror to those that were prievy to the events of Ishiria and what transpired there...

”Finally, after all those years... but it matters not. Nobody escapes their karma and it just so happens that I have been sent as its judge and executioner.”
