Chapter 53: Meeting Nico Robin
Shangguan Wen arrived at a cloud somewhere above Inazuma. He used flying magic to slowly fly away from Inazuma for dozens of nautical miles. He referred to the map given by Quinn, exerted force suddenly, and his feet made a banging sound of sonic boom. He cut through the sky at a speed of Mach 8 and rushed straight from the New World to the Grand Line. He planned to find Ning, a woman, before looking for Germa 66.
The survivor of Ohara in the West Sea, archaeologist Nico Robin, Shangguan Wen could not read ancient characters, Jin had not received systematic study, and had only a vague understanding of the ancient historical texts. Now that he had these in his hands, he had to decipher them quickly and keep them for food.
At this time, she had just joined the Old Sand Baroque Works, and it was the best time to recruit people.
According to the permanent pointer and map in his hand, Shangguan Wen soon came to the location of Old Sand, Alabasta.
After several hours, Shangguan Wen arrived at the blazing desert of Alabasta, activated his Observation Haki, and sensed the place with the most life on this island kingdom. Soon, Shangguan Wen found a caravan walking in the desert, asked the other party about their location, and headed towards the Rainy Land, Crocodile’s base camp.
The Rainy Land is the most gambling place in the Kingdom of Alabasta. Every day, hundreds of millions of Baileys come in and out of here. There are also many people who jump off high buildings after losing everything, or are beaten up by the people of Baroque Works 24. However, the high profits brought by gambling still make many people take risks, thinking that they will become rich overnight.
Shangguan Wen came to the Rainy Land, and after a little inquiry, he knew that the casino of Baroque Works was here. He concealed his true face and drank the fruit juice of the specialty of the Rainy Land, and swaggered towards the “Rain Banquet” casino.
When he walked in, he saw madness, regret, stupidity, bloodthirstiness, etc. in all kinds of life, and he couldn’t help shaking his head.
He found the maid and exchanged the tens of millions of Baileys in her hand for chips, and randomly found a pinball machine to start playing. Before Shangguan Wen traveled through time, he saw news that many Japanese people played pinball machines and lost their fortunes and families. He didn’t expect that there were pinball machines in this world.
Shangguan Wen thought to himself that although the pinball machines were different in form, their essence of seducing people was exactly the same. He narrowed his eyes and carefully observed the operating rules of the machine. His fingers gently tapped the armrests, as if calculating something.
The people around him cheered loudly or cursed in a low voice when playing pinball machines. Their emotions fluctuated with the rolling of the pinballs, as if they were pulled by invisible lines and couldn’t extricate themselves.
At first, Shangguan Wen just randomly put in a few chips to test the “temper” of the machine.
But soon, he discovered some clues – the probability of this pinball machine releasing balls at certain times seemed to have a subtle pattern.
He smiled faintly and had a plan in mind. As time went by, Shangguan Wen had more and more chips in his hand, and the expressions of the people around him gradually changed from surprise to jealousy.
They began to notice this man who lookedA player who seems ordinary but is actually a hidden talent. Some people try to imitate Shangguan Wen’s playing style, but often end up failing, which accelerates the loss of their own chips.
The management of the casino soon noticed this anomaly.
A tall girl with short blond hair and light green eyes.
She is charming and smiling.
She wears a yellow hat and lemon slice earrings, a yellow dress with lemon slice patterns, white high heels, and white gloves.
The tall girl with a yellow and blue striped umbrella slowly walked towards Shangguan Wen and introduced herself as a special assistant to the casino’s vice president Miss.
AllSunday, a cadre named Mr.
3.
She said in a polite and tentative tone: “Sir, you are really lucky.
I wonder if you are interested in participating in the higher-level games in our casino? The challenges and rewards there are by no means comparable to these small games.
If you win, you can get a sky-high price of Bailey.
”
Shangguan Wen smiled slightly. Miss. AllSunday is Nico Robin’s code name in Baroque Works. This is exactly the opportunity he wants. He pretended to think for a moment, then nodded and followed Mr. Michita 3 into the depths of the casino.
There is another more advanced casino in Baroque Works. The atmosphere here is becoming more and more depressing, and there is an indescribable tension in the air. The gamblers here are no longer ordinary people, tourists, and some unknown pirates outside, but dignitaries from all over the world, pirates in the Grand Line, or bounty hunters. What they gamble is no longer a simple Bailey, but intelligence, resources, and even life.
Shangguan Wen was brought to a luxuriously decorated gambling table, surrounded by many gamblers who were ready to make a fortune here. Of course, even if they lost, they could just rob the money and run away.
“MR.3, where is your Miss. AllSunday? I really want to meet this vice president”
“As long as you win the first place, you can meet her”
Shangguan Wen looked left and right, and quickly located Nico Robin here with his Observation Haki.
“No, I have a faster and more convenient way here”
A flash of red light flashed in his eyes, and his Domineering Haki unfolded. Except for Michita and Nico Robin who were going to stay, the rest were shocked by this Domineering Haki and fainted with foam at the mouth.
Shangguan Wen also removed his disguise to reveal his true face.
“First meeting Miss. AllSunday, Robin, and .3 Michita” (To read exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Standing high up, the black-skinned beauty with long black hair, a three-dimensional nose, a white cowboy hat, a white fur coat, a purple skirt, and white boots was not as calm as before. She was terrified, and cold sweat kept pouring down her back.
Michita, who was next to Shangguan Wen, was so scared that she fell to the ground.
Who is Shangguan Wen?
The new captain of the Beast, the new worldOne of the world’s overlords, the world’s number one man now, actually appeared beside me in disguise. I’m dying, I’m going to die here today.
Mikita’s mind was full of this thought. She didn’t think that her president and vice president Nico Robin, who didn’t show up, could defeat the man with a bounty of 6.66 billion Baileys. []
“Sir, come to the small Baroque Works to make it glorious. We just didn’t treat you well. Please wait, I’ll let the president come over now”
“I said, I’m here to find you and the lady next to you. If you see me, leave here with me. I’m not going to the next place. Of course, Crocodile is willing to fight me for you, and I don’t mind killing him”
Now Old Sand’s strength has declined significantly. He is obsessed with finding ancient weapons. He was not an opponent before, and he is even less so now.
Nico Robin’s heart skipped a beat, her face darkened, and she sighed that her life was so miserable. Was her mission to find the historical text over here?
“There are two historical texts on the road signs of the beasts, and there are also two historical texts of intelligence here. Find them first to satisfy your wish as an archaeologist before leaving.”
Nico Robin’s heart was originally as dead as ashes, but she was full of energy in an instant. She raised her head and looked at Shangguan Wen, who was shorter and younger than her, and said hesitantly:
“Is this true?”
“What do you have that I can deceive?”
Nico Robin thought about it, and apart from her ability to understand historical texts, there was really nothing else to deceive.
As for beautiful women, she didn’t think Shangguan Wen would lack them. As long as he was willing, there were countless people in the new world who would offer them to him.
She could only say a trivial thank you. .
