At this moment, when Luffy brought it up again,
Robin instantly burst into tears.
Biting her lip, tears flowed like a spring, uncontrollably drenching her face.
She looked at Luffy with blurry eyes, revealing for the first time an expression other than despair and pain.
And Luffy, at this moment, also saw a completely new expression in Robin's tear-filled eyes.
Reluctance and longing!
Reluctance to leave these companions!
And... a longing for Luffy to save her once again!
However, just then, Spandam suddenly sensed that something was wrong.
The situation seemed to be developing in a direction he didn't want to see.
What he wanted to see was Robin and Luffy's groups both looking desperate and pained.
But now, it was clearly going against his expectations.
Immediately, Spandam jumped in front of Robin.
Holding the Golden den den mushi, he waved it back and forth in front of Robin's eyes.
Then he spoke.
"You haven't forgotten, Nico Robin?!"
"This Golden den den mushi in my hand has the authority to initiate a Buster Call!"
It must be said, Spandam's move was truly effective.
When Robin saw the Golden den den mushi and heard the words "Buster Call,"
Her eyes were instantly filled with fear once again.
Frowning, her expression was terrified.
Seeing this, Spandam immediately smiled smugly.
Then, he escalated.
He bared his fangs and brandished his claws at Robin, a sinister smile on his face, and shouted loudly,
"That's right!"
"It's the power that completely annihilated your hometown 20 years ago! Nico Robin!"
"The name [Ohara] disappeared from the map the very next year!!!"
When this lingering shadow was brought up again, Robin instantly became incredibly agitated and terrified.
Her pupils trembled, her body shook, extremely agitated.
Such a scene made Spandam's lips curl upwards uncontrollably, and his mood once again became extremely comfortable and pleasant, as he smiled contentedly,
"Hehe!"
"Strong reaction, I'm very satisfied!"
However, Spandam still had no intention of stopping, continuing to provoke Robin.
With a playful expression, he placed a finger above the Golden den den mushi's button and chuckled,
"What do you say?!"
"Do you want me to press the Buster Call button for you to see?"
As soon as Spandam finished speaking, Robin shouted agitatedly,
"Don't!!!"
"Absolutely not!!!"
Robin's expression was terrified, her pupils flickered, her face covered in cold sweat, as she shrieked loudly,
"Do you know what the consequences will be if you press that?"
Seeing Robin's strong reaction, everyone present frowned slightly, with confusion in their eyes.
And Spandam's lips curled upwards again upon hearing this, looking at Robin with contempt, and chuckled smugly,
"Of course I know..."
"As long as I press this Golden den den mushi button, the Straw Hat's chances of escaping from this island will become zero!"
Saying that, Spandam revealed a playful smile and said,
"Are you perhaps recalling something?"
"Wahahahaha..."
Spandam laughed triumphantly.
Robin's reaction made him very satisfied.
And Robin, at this moment, shouted again,
"It's not as simple as you think!"
"You just said Ohara disappeared from the map, right!"
"Can you see the existence of people on a map?"
"It's because you disregard human lives that you could do such a horrific thing!"
Mentioning that tragic memory again, Robin couldn't help but sigh, saying in despair,
"Buster Call..."
"It's a power that will make people completely despair!"
"If the Buster Call is activated here now..."
"Everyone on this island, including all of you, will turn to ashes along with Enies Lobby!"
Hearing this, Spandam immediately questioned disbelievingly,
"Nonsense!"
"How could they attack their own people?!"
"What are you talking about?"
Robin's expression remained despairing, as she said sorrowfully,
"20 years ago, the attack that took everything from me..."
"And changed countless lives..."
"Was the Buster Call!!!"
Saying that, Robin looked at Luffy, and at everyone around Luffy.
With worry and fear in her eyes, she continued,
"And this attack..."
"Is now aimed at the trustworthy companions I found after so much hardship!"
"The more I want to be with you, the more I will drag you down!"
"Even if I escape to the ends of the earth, I cannot escape the enemy's clutches!"
"Because my enemy is..."
"The World Government, and the darkness they created!"
At this point, Robin took a deep breath.
Tears welled up in her eyes again, as she looked at Luffy and the others, crying out in sad despair,
"I don't want to drag you down anymore!"
"If this continues, even if you can tolerate me now..."
"Sooner or later, you'll feel I'm a burden!"
"And then you'll betray me and abandon me!"
As Robin spoke, tears streamed uncontrollably from her eyes.
"This is what I fear the most!"
"So I don't want you to save me!"
"If I'm going to die anyway..."
"Then I might as well die here!!!"
Listening to Robin's heartfelt and true thoughts, the Straw Hat all came to a sudden realization.
They finally understood why Robin wanted to leave them.
And after understanding the reason, each of them felt heartache for Robin.
Meanwhile,
After hearing Robin's words, Spandam couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Wahahahaha..."
"So that's it!"
"That's a very insightful point!"
"And you can't blame anyone else!"
"Because no one would be foolish enough to want to carry you, this burden!"
"Hahaha..."
Saying that, Spandam looked at Luffy's group.
He proudly pointed to the flag representing the World Government at the top of the Judicial Tower.
He shouted triumphantly,
"Look at that flag, pirates!"
"That symbol represents the alliance of over 180 countries across the four seas and the Grand Line!"
"This is the World!"
"Facing the World, you should know how insignificant you are, shouldn't you?!"
"You should also know what a massive organization this woman is up against, shouldn't you?!"
"Wahahahaha..."
After Spandam finished speaking, he once again laughed proudly and triumphantly.
Their World Government represented absolute power, something these pathetic pirates in front of him could never face or resist.
However, just then, Luffy suddenly called out to Robin.
"Robin!"
Hearing Luffy's call, Robin looked up at Luffy.
There were still tears in her eyes.
And Luffy, at this moment, looked at Robin very seriously and said,
"If you're worried that we'll betray you and abandon you one day..."
"Then next…"
Luffy said, suddenly roaring furiously at Robin.
"You listen closely!!!"
"I, Monkey D. Luffy, representing the Straw Hat!"
"Here…"
"Officially declare war…"
"On the World Government!!!"
Luffy's final roar was hysterical, his voice earth-shattering.
It echoed between heaven and earth, entering everyone's ears, lingering for a long time.
And Robin, seeing Luffy's furious roar and hearing his heartbreaking declaration,
Could no longer control her emotions, and tears gushed forth.
Her body trembled slightly, her mouth slightly agape, her pupils quivering, and she looked at Luffy with immense excitement.
Just then, Luffy spoke in a deep voice to Usopp beside him.
"Usopp! Shoot down that flag!"
"Understood!"
Usopp replied, then pulled out his slingshot and aimed at the flag representing the World Government.
"Sure-Kill: Fire Bird Star!"
With a soft cry, a fire bird streaked across the sky, piercing through the flag.
Whoosh!
Flames bloomed and burned, instantly incinerating the flag!
This scene terrified Spandam and the others, snot and cold sweat simultaneously flowing.
"Those… those pirates actually declared war on the World Government!!!"
Spandam couldn't believe it, his eyes filled with terror and disbelief.
And Robin, seeing this scene, cried even more heartbreakingly, biting her lip, her body trembling incessantly, her cheeks completely soaked with tears.
Just then, Luffy again called out Robin's name loudly.
"Robin!!!"
Robin had been gazing at Luffy with tear-filled eyes, without blinking.
Now, hearing that call, she nodded slightly.
And Luffy suddenly opened his mouth wide, using all his strength, letting out a hysterical roar.
"I haven't heard you say it yourself yet!"
"Say…"
"…[I want to live]!!!"
Robin's eyes were blurred with tears, staring blankly at Luffy.
The words "live" kept echoing in her mind!
At the same time, snippets of her past memories kept flooding her mind.
There were various people denying her existence.
[You shouldn't be alive in this world, Robin!]
[Your existence itself is a great sin, Robin!]
[You jinx, stay away from us!]
[Go die quickly! You child of the devil who only brings disaster to people!]
These voices appeared in Robin's mind, while Robin cried out in pain in her heart.
'I always felt I had no right to hope…'
'No one ever made me think this way!'
But there was also a unique voice from Saul, encouraging her to live strongly and embrace hope.
[The sea is so vast, you will definitely meet companions who are willing to protect you!!]
Robin continued to speak in her heart.
'If it's really possible…'
'Let me speak my wish…'
Suddenly, Robin could no longer control her tears, crying bitterly, opening her mouth wide, looking at Luffy with extreme sadness, and shouting to him with all her might.
"I…"
"…want to live!!!"
"Take me with you, to the sea!!!"
Robin's voice also resounded through heaven and earth, echoing in everyone's minds.
And Luffy, hearing Robin sincerely say these words, couldn't help but slowly curve his lips upward.
The rest of the Straw Hat also showed expressions of joy on their faces.
Franky was even more moved to tears, his mouth wide open, crying incessantly, saying,
"Waaah waah waah waah…"
"I really love you guys!"
"Bastards!!!"
While Franky was wiping his tears and crying alone,
Suddenly, excited shouts came from the opposite side.
"Boss!!!"
"Wow! It's Boss!"
"That's great! Boss is fine!"
Hearing these familiar voices, Franky was momentarily stunned and stopped crying.
Then, he quickly wiped away the tears from his eyes and looked in the direction of the voices.
He saw them at the back door below the courthouse where Luffy and the others stood.
The Franky Family gathered there, waving and cheering excitedly.
"Boss! We're here to save you!"
"We came with Straw Hat!"
"Sodom and Gomorrah (the two King Bull) are here too!"
"Boss, are you hurt?"
"Boss, come back with us!!!"
Franky stared blankly at his subordinates who were shouting below.
He saw his subordinates, some with bandages, some leaning on crutches.
Each of them had faces as black as coal and hair exploded as if electrocuted.
In short, they were as miserable as could be!
And even though they were so miserable at this moment, joy was still on their faces, and they looked at Franky excitedly.
Seeing this scene, Franky could no longer suppress it, tears and snot flowing, crying with immense emotion.
"You… you fools!"
"To save me…"
"Did you fight to this extent?!"
"Waaah waah waah waah…"
"Who told you…"
"To come save me…"
"I really…"
"Love you guys!!!"
"Waaah waah waah waah…"
Seeing Franky crying so emotionally, the Franky Family also burst into tears, shouting in unison,
"Boss!!!"
As both sides cried emotionally, Luffy suddenly crouched slightly, beginning to gather strength.
Seeing this, Spandam on the opposite side immediately cried out in fear.
"He… he's not coming over, is he?!"
"Stop him!"
"Lucci!"
"Quickly stop him!"
"You must ensure my safety!"
"My safety is the most important!"
Spandam said, retreating nonstop until he was pressed tightly against the wall behind him.
And Rob Lucci at this moment had intense fighting spirit in his eyes.
(Okay)
He stood alone, blocking everyone's path.
Standing on the railing, arms crossed, his eyes fixed on Luffy without blinking.
At this moment, with Luffy.
He saw his legs, like springs, constantly pumping air from bottom to top, into his body.
Soon, white steam emanated from his body, swirling around him.
And his skin also turned crimson at this moment.
"Second Gear!"
Luffy muttered.
Then he looked up at the man blocking his way on the opposite side.
The next second.
He suddenly stomped hard with his foot, and the stone wall beneath him instantly exploded.
And everyone was shocked at the same time to see Luffy's figure suddenly disappear from his original spot.
Just this first move surprised even CP Lucci on the opposite side.
Even they couldn't clearly see Luffy's movements.
In fact, the moment Luffy disappeared, they couldn't find him at all.
And when Luffy reappeared, he was already in the central mid-air between the courthouse and the Tower of Justice.
In mid-air, Luffy's fists were clenched.
A hint of black immediately appeared on them.
The next second.
An unparalleled aura erupted from his body, shaking the heavens and earth.
At the same time, purple-black lightning, like thin snakes, surged out from his fists in all directions.
Crack!
Crack!
Earth-shattering, soul-stirring roars echoed through the heavens and earth.
The thin purple-black snakes instantly transformed into winding giant dragons.
They enveloped the entire Enies Lobby.
And Enies Lobby, known as the sleepless island, became dim and dark at this moment.
As if swept and engulfed by darkness, terrifying lightning continued to explode within it.
The entire Enies Lobby, in the blink of an eye, became like a doomsday hell.
This caused Spandam, CP9, the few remaining guards in the Judicial Tower, as well as the Franky Family and Franky, to be incomparably terrified.
Their eyeballs protruded, bloodshot, mouths agape, filled with immense fear.
All of them stood in stunned silence, their jaws dropped, watching Luffy, who was currently wrapped in purple-black lightning, flying forward in mid-air.
