Jotaro left the Galley-La Company.
Iceburg watched the direction Jotaro left in, his heart unable to calm down for a long ti.
He had never seen such a person before, simply a madman.
"Iceburg-san! Your body is alright, isn't it?"
Iceburg turned his gaze toward him.
"Oh, it's Tilestone, thank you for coming to visit ."
"Everyone is very worried about you." Tilestone grinned foolishly. "By the way, Iceburg-san, why were you suddenly attacked?"
Iceburg let out a long sigh.
"This is a long story… right."
His eyes fell on Tilestone's daughter, Alice.
The latter was standing obediently to the side, quietly listening to their conversation.
"Alice, haven't you always wanted to be my secretary? Starting from tomorrow, co work here."
"I've already dismissed Kalifa! Now I need soone to help handle the affairs at work."
Although Alice was still young, her abilities were outstanding, she was a genius secretary.
Previously, only because of Kalifa's presence had Iceburg not appointed her.
Now, with Kalifa's identity exposed, Iceburg was also considering finding a new secretary.
Tilestone subconsciously opened his mouth, but found his throat tightening, so words truly hard to say.
Alice lowered her head, a little embarrassed.
"Iceburg-san, thank you for your kindness, but my dream has already changed."
She cupped her face in both hands, her ears completely red.
"Now I only want to be that person's secretary~"
Iceburg's expression froze, standing dumbfounded in place.
Tilestone coughed once.
"Actually, it's like this. Before, when the shipyard accident happened, a man nad Joseph Joestar saved my little girl."
"A life-saving grace cannot go unrepaid! So I specifically brought my daughter here to bid farewell to Iceburg-san."
"After we repay his kindness, we will co back to work for Iceburg-san."
Iceburg, "..."
Alice couldn't wait to ask, "Iceburg-san, where did Joseph-san go? I still want to thank him in person."
Iceburg said with a hopeless face, "He went to attack Enies Lobby!"
"Oh, so he went to attack Enies Lobby." Tilestone nodded, the next second he jumped in fright, "What! Attack Enies Lobby?"
Enies Lobby housed the Governnt's highest court. Prisoners escorted there, in eight hundred years, had never once been given a not-guilty verdict, and since its establishnt it had never been breached.
The main reason was that Enies Lobby was connected to the Governnt's central Navy Headquarters, Marineford.
Countless marines were stationed here.
Once an enemy attack occurred, Navy Headquarters could also rush here swiftly through a special sea current.
With Jotaro's current strength, standing against the entire Navy was unrealistic.
However, attacking Enies Lobby was the result of his careful deliberation.
Whitebeard's pirates were about to wreak havoc in Marineford, so the guarding force of Enies Lobby would inevitably be weaker than before.
Without an admiral to stop him, even alone he could easily break through the defenses there.
Helping Iceburg was only secondary. His main purpose was to open the Gates of Justice of Enies Lobby.
Through the Navy's internal sea current, he could rush straight to Marineford.
There was still more than an hour left until Fire Fist Ace's execution…
The Governnt people had already taken Franky aboard the Sea Train.
Jotaro and the others had likewise slipped onto it.
The Sea Train led directly to Enies Lobby, extrely fast in speed, with plenty of ti to spare.
———
CP9 had been lurking in Water 7 for years, their goal was to obtain the blueprints of the ancient weapon "Pluton."
Now that the blueprints were already in hand, and the criminal Franky was also about to be escorted to Enies Lobby to face trial,
Without that useless superior Spandam giving ssy orders, their efficiency in completing the mission had greatly increased.
Rob Lucci looked with disdain at the governnt personnel who had co to assist.
"Although it's impossible for enemies to co and stir up trouble, keep your nerves tight!"
The governnt personnel lined up in two neat rows.
"Yes! Sir!"
Because of escorting a criminal, the Sea Train had already been fully requisitioned by the governnt, idlers were not allowed to enter.
"Bastards! You lackeys of the governnt, hurry and release your grandpa here!"
Franky shouted loudly, both his hands and feet tightly bound with rope, unable to move.
Rob Lucci said coldly, "Shut him up! Kaku!"
Without hesitation, Kaku sent a Rankyaku kick straight into Franky's abdon, making the latter vomit foam, instantly silenced.
"Let's go!" Rob Lucci led CP mbers toward the first-class cabin.
Kalifa looked at him in confusion and asked, "We clearly had ways of obtaining the blueprints without exposing our identities. Why must we adopt such a forceful thod?"
Rob Lucci, "This is the governnt's will. They have a more important mission for us."
Kalifa pushed up her glasses, "Oh? What mission?"
Rob Lucci said word by word, "To investigate the whereabouts of Kujo Jotaro. The governnt wants to negotiate with him."
Kalifa, "Kujo Jotaro? Is that the pirate who made chaos in Alabasta?"
"Mm." Rob Lucci grinned eerily, "A terrifying guy. But I really want to et him!"
———
"Jotaro-san, the train is about to depart." Shinobu heard the Sea Train's whistle sound.
"Let's get on! Rember, before reaching Enies Lobby, try to avoid contact with the governnt people."
Jotaro instructed.
Right now, governnt agents filled every carriage of the Sea Train. If conflict broke out, things would undoubtedly beco troubleso.
If fighting erupted on the train, it could very likely affect the normal operation of the train.
To him, saving Iceburg's junior brother was only a casual matter. The main purpose was still heading to Marineford, to repay Whitebeard's favor.
Ti was not especially abundant.
Secondly, he also did not want the marines stationed at Enies Lobby to get advance information and enter battle readiness.
Bang!
Jotaro landed on the last carriage of the train, kicking the door open with one strike.
"Who are you!"
A stranger suddenly broke in.
The governnt people all grew wary.
"You all might as well take a nap."
Jotaro's hawk-like eyes suddenly glared.
Under the rampant surge of Conqueror's Haki, everyone in the whole carriage collapsed one after another.
After that, he didn't advance, rely stood guard over this carriage, waiting for the train to reach the final stop.
———
"It's here!"
The Sea Train stopped at Enies Lobby.
Rob Lucci stood up, pressing down the still unyielding prisoner Franky, walking off the carriage.
The marines stationed here had already ford ranks, standing upright, lined along the long staircase, welcoming them.
"Strange…" Kalifa narrowed her eyes, staring at the other carriages, "Why is there no movent from the others?"
The train was like a slumbering iron beast, every carriage door tightly shut, silent as a tomb.
The atmosphere suddenly turned eerie, that unspeakable kind of chill that made one's back go cold.
Rob Lucci's brows furrowed tightly, just about to go investigate.
Suddenly... the door of the second carriage slowly opened.
Creaaaak~
The door was like the opening of the gates of hell, heavy shadows spreading out from within the carriage, step by step pressing down on everyone.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Deep, heavy footsteps, like a heartbeat, steady and powerful, yet suffocating.
A tall figure appeared from within the door.
"So this is Enies Lobby?"
On his head a white hat, his slender uniform sharp as a blade, his pair of sharp eyes like an abyss, in their coldness carrying overwhelming authority.
"Kujo Jotaro!!!"
Even though Jotaro had changed into another outfit, the people present still imdiately recognized him.
In an instant, the surrounding marines all felt their throats tighten, as if gripped by an invisible hand.
The air suddenly froze, even the sea breeze seed suppressed by his aura.
"How could a pirate appear here!"
"This is the man with a bounty of 3.5 billion!"
The marines' formation fell into chaos at once.
Cowardly soldiers even dropped their guns onto the ground with a clang, cold sweat pouring down their foreheads like rain, dripping down their cheeks.
"This is the monster said to be able to defeat a navy admiral!"
"Heavens, he's not thinking of starting a war with us, is he!"
Seeing Jotaro stepping forward, the marines trembled all over, their hearts nearly stopping.
The highest rank here was only major. The unintentional pressure from Jotaro's aura was already more than they could endure!
CP9 were all specially trained, with stronger resistance to pressure.
Aside from the weakest Kalifa, who under Jotaro's aura couldn't withstand it, her breathing grew faint and shallow, her whole body covered in fragrant sweat, the others all struggled to maintain calm.
"Kujo Jotaro!" Rob Lucci sneered coldly, "The governnt just issued us agents an order, hoping we could quickly find you."
"Didn't expect you to deliver yourself instead! The governnt people want to negotiate with you. But whether you're still in one piece to negotiate, they didn't specify…"
Rob Lucci licked his lips, his expression sowhat crazed, directly transforming into leopard form under the power of his Zoan Devil Fruit.
He was the type whose potential grew stronger the more pressure he felt.
"Psssh!"
He slashed down one of the cowardly soldiers behind him.
"No retreat! Do you want to see pirates storm into the Enies Lobby Grand Hall?"
"Fight them all!"
"Whoever dares step back, I'll kill him!"
After saying this, he stared at Jotaro, grinning grimly, "Jotaro, I'll make you kneel on the ground obediently for negotiations!"
Under Rob Lucci's pressure, the marines finally regained so military posture, raising their rifles to aim at the enemy.
"We have more people, he's only one! Don't lose formation!"
Even when facing a powerful enemy, they did not retreat, but pressed forward.
'Quite brave...'
'But useless…'
BOOM!
Just the unintentional Haki from Jotaro already made them suffer imnsely. Now, as his Conqueror's Haki poured out in full, it swept past everyone like a raging storm.
The struggling CP9 could no longer hold on, their bodies stiffened, and aside from Lucci, all of them fell to the ground, convulsing without stop.
As for the ordinary soldiers, there was no need to even ntion them.
Thud!
As Jotaro approached, even Lucci was suddenly forced onto one knee in front of him.
Only at this mont did Lucci truly see the difference in strength between them.
"What terrifying Haki this is!"
Jotaro looked down on him, eyes without the slightest ripple.
"You said the World Governnt wants to negotiate with ? Just right, I also have sothing to tell them."
