123. Old friends
"Ken , why do you care? We can beat whoever cos." Luffy wasn't really worried about the masked n. Like him other's didn't care too much. Though they might not be powerful like Luffy, the enemies they had faced until now couldn't even stand in front of them.
It was false to say that they were overconfident but they definitely felt like they could take the world. Ken looked at them with squinted eyes and asked.
"Did you forget how badly Zoro was defeated by Mihawk? Or did you forget the pain our grandfather delivered us? Do you really think you can defeat everyone?"
Luffy and Zoro shuddered hearing Ken's words. Since Zoro was beaten down by Mihawk he had been aiming to beco the strongest swordsman. And he was progressing fast but now when Ken reminded them both realized how far they actually were. All these characters had given them a false sense of belief that they could take down the world. Everyone of them had gone through a new world so in a way they thought that they could do the sa with the current world.
Ken then turned again to Smoker who was in a little trance. He had gone through the reports of Luffy and his crew and knew that Zoro was defeated by Mihawk according to multiple reports. But what was that about the grandfather of Luffy and Ken?
He must really be a monster to raise soone like Luffy and Ken. Smoker nodded his head and Nami handed him a piece of paper. And surprisingly and fortunately, Smoker wasn't bad at drawing. Within a few minutes he finished his drawing while Ken and others were finally able to see the n.
Smoker also put on so shades in order to demonstrate that their clothes were really in white and masks were so weird that Ussop and Chopper ended up laughing. One mask was of a sunflower and the other was of a shark. These masks were over the top but it really did the job very well. It hid each and every feature of the two n.
What Ken was thinking about really happened. He already had a guess when Smoker spoke of masked n and the drawings made him sure what kind of people these n were. Man! These guys were really bad at hiding. Why all the drama when they could easily show their faces around. These masks just gave their identity away.
It was the CP organization. Only thing left to know was which number these people belonged to. CP9, CP0 or so other number that he didn't know of. If it was Lucci they might really be in a little problem.
"Ken, who are they?" Nami asked as he could see the silence of Ken and was making her uncomfortable. The others felt the sa. Ken didn't reply and instead slapped Crocodile. And it was not just one slap, but multiple.
Ken was trying to wake him up and needed to talk.
"Ken stop, he will die." Chopper ca running in to stop Ken but he continued slapping until his scarred cheeks beca red and plump. With a small sound, Crocodile regained little consciousness.
Chopper then proceeded to patch Crocodile up. They understood that Ken needed to talk with Crocodile about the people he had talked to before.
"Ken, do you recognize the n in masks? They look funny." Luffy asked. He was still sohow holding his laugh after seeing their masks.
"I have an an idea and I want to conform sothing." Ken replied. Patching Crocodile up would take so ti so they all had to wait. The marines didn't co with Smoker so there was nobody to see Smoker sitting with so pirates. Though it irritated him, at the end of the day they did save him.
He was convincing himself that this was just payback for saving him. After this he would go back to his previous identity. After an hour of patching up in bandages, Crocodile was finally able to talk again. He had hatred in his eyes when he looked at Luffy and was silently gritting his teeth, but didn't speak a word.
Luffy just wiped the floor with him!
Ken ca forward and asked.
"Who did you talk to?"
Crocodile looked at him and then Smoker, he could already guess what had happened.
"What a bad joke! Haha.. A marine joining up with a pirate to take down another pirate. Hahaha." Smoker laughed as he said that and then coughed. He still hadn't recovered and was heavily injured.
"Let kick you one ti to make your head right." Sanji said as his foot started burning but Chopper stopped him.
"This isn't the first ti a marine and a pirate joined together and took down another pirate and probably won't be the last. So get off your high horse and tell what did you speak of with those masked n?" Ken asked as he angled towards him. Crocodile just looked at Ken and his eyes slowly went towards Robin. Those changes in the direction in his eyes was enough of an answer for Ken.
This shitty guy just ratted on Nico Robin and told the organisation of her. This shouldn't have been the case. All this ti Robin was hidden well from the world governnt. But now it seed like many things had changed. There were probably so spies in Baroque Works who must have seen her and told the World Governnt.
Or maybe Emu had sent an order down to take out Alabasta and Robin was just an extra. Many things might have changed and this Emu guy might have just started working again much earlier than he expected. Whatever it was, Alabasta was still in danger.
There were multiple reasons for why the CP organization was here and no matter what they would have to take these two n down. Ken slowly got up, looked at Robin and said.
"Your old friends are here."
"Old friends?" Robin was confused but then she thought of sothing and said.
"The CP organization is here?"
Ken nodded his head. Robin shuddered and her knees went weak. Vivi who was beside her, embraced her imdiately as she felt her fear.
