From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 66 Historical text, a gift to Robin.

Alabasta, the land of rain.

On the second basement floor of the Rain Banquet Casino, Nico Robin was sitting in the office that originally belonged to Crocodile.

However, during this period, the office seemed to have undergone some renovations and became larger. The pool where Crocodile originally raised banana crocodiles has been transformed into a normal living room.

As the vice president of Baroque Works, Nico Robin always feels that she is busier than when she worked under Crocodile. It seems that there are endless documents and affairs to deal with every day. This makes her a little irritated every time she thinks of Bane, the hands-off boss.

"I don't know where that guy is now?" Robin whispered to himself.

But just as she finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi on her desk suddenly rang.

Robin has already gotten used to this situation. With her current status, she receives calls from senior executives of Baroque Works every day, most of which are reports on their work progress.

It’s no wonder that since the collapse of Crocodile’s Utopia plan, the Baroque Works has been accumulating wealth at an increasingly faster rate.

After taking a glance at the Den Den Mushi, Robin's expression suddenly brightened, because the one who contacted her this time was none other than Bane.

After deliberately waiting for a few seconds, Robin calmly picked up the Den Den Mushi and said softly, "President, do you have any instructions?"

"Oh, it seems that our vice president is very resentful." Ben said with a smile.

Thinking about it carefully, he felt a little ashamed. Nicole Robin kissed him boldly when they parted, but after leaving, Bane never contacted her once. He was really a scumbag.

After hearing Bane's voice, Robin still said calmly, "How dare you? After all, I witnessed the end of the previous president with my own eyes."

"Hehehe," Ben chuckled twice, then said, "By the way, is the encrypted fax machine I asked you to prepare last time ready?"

Robin glanced at the fax machine on his desk unconsciously when he heard this, and then said: "Of course, but it has not been running so far, which is really pitiful."

"There's something else going on here." Ben smacked his lips.

Why hadn't he noticed before that Robin was pretty clingy?
Wasn't it agreed that her character is a scheming, independent queen?
Without waiting for Robin to reply, Ben smiled and said, "I have been looking for a gift for you for some time. Today I finally found a suitable one that will definitely suit your taste. So, what is the encryption code for the fax machine? I will take a photo of the gift and send it to you."

"This is the first time I've heard of giving someone a photo as a gift." Robin complained with a bit of amusement, but still quickly reported a string of codes.

Over there, Ben was fiddling with his fax machine in the cabin.

After a while, a photo that had been taken earlier was sent out.

There was also a clicking sound coming from Robin's fax machine. Although she was still sitting in the boss chair without moving, a pair of hands had grown on the fax machine. After waiting for a moment, it took out the photos sent by Bane.

After just one glance, Robin's expression suddenly changed. He stood up from his chair, walked to the table in two steps, and picked up the faxed photo.

Then, she said in an excited tone: "The historical text. This is the historical text!?"

That’s right, the photos Bane took of her were exactly the historical text hidden in the Golden City, Shandora.

"How about it? Do you like this gift?" Bane asked with a smile.

Robin finally came back to his senses from the photos in the history text, and with a bright smile on his face, he said, "How do you want me to reward you?"

A queen is a queen. As soon as she opened her mouth, she looked very seductive, which made Ben unable to help but feel a little shaken on the Den Den Mushi side. However, he was a man of strong will after all, so Ben quickly teased: "Help me manage Baroque Works, and then make more money for me."

"What a man who doesn't understand romance~" Robin deliberately said in a seductive tone. But after saying this, she couldn't help laughing, holding the photo in one hand and saying, "Where did you find this?"

"Sky Island, the Land of Gold, Shandora." Bane responded calmly.

"The Land of Gold!" Robin was a little surprised, but that was all. He quickly continued, "I didn't expect you to be able to find this legendary treasure from the sea."

She was originally planning to talk to Ben about the Land of Gold, but before she could say anything, she saw some unexpected findings in the historical text on the photo, so she changed the subject and said, "Someone has arrived at the legendary Land of Gold before you."

"Did the ancient text left in the historical text tell you?" Bane responded without surprise.

"I came here to guide this text to its final destination." Robin translated the ancient text simply and clearly, and then said: "The one who left this text is the Pirate King Roger."

"I see." Bane sighed pretentiously.

This made Robin ask in a somewhat strange way: "Why do you seem to have no curiosity about this at all?"

"I'm not curious about anything. I told you before that I have no interest in that period of history. The reason I took a photo of the historical text and sent it to you is because you like it, right? This is my gift, nothing more." Bane responded calmly.

"Hehe~" Robin laughed happily twice, and then said in a seductive tone: "You should know that there are very terrifying ancient weapons hidden in the historical texts. Aren't you also tempted by this kind of power? Perhaps the historical text you showed me contains this kind of power that can destroy the world?"

Robin was not lying, and Bane knew in his heart that what was recorded in the historical text of Sky Island was the location of Poseidon, one of the ancient weapons that was said to be powerful enough to destroy the world.

However, Bane knew who the Sea King was: Shirahoshi, the little princess of the royal family of Fishman Island.

Therefore, he had no interest in the main text of history. If the secret of Uranus, the king of heaven, was discovered one day, he might be a little interested.

"I'm not moved. I'm not interested." Bane responded to Robin very straightforwardly.

Then, without waiting for Robin to speak again, Bane said again: "Okay, okay, I can already smell the aroma of barbecue, and the sky beasts of Sky Island are waving to me. I won't talk to you anymore. Work hard. If I gain something in the future, I will reward you again."

After saying this, Bane hung up the Den Den Mushi without any reluctance.

On the other side of the Den Den Mushi, Nico Robin looked at the silent Den Den Mushi in her hand with a helpless expression. That guy was really unpredictable.

But no matter what, Bane's failure to ask for information about the historical text really made Robin feel relieved. No matter if that guy was in disguise or had some other conspiracy, at least at this moment, he did not put any pressure on her, so she could be more calm.

At the same time, Bane had walked out of the cabin and came to the deck.

Looking closer, there seemed to be a village in the distant clouds, and the tempting aroma of barbecue came from there.

That's right, at this time Bane and his group had already left Arpaiado, Weber rang the bell and lit the lights of Shandora.

Afterwards, the Shandian people, whose wish had been fulfilled, generously gave this golden land to Bane.

There was no way. Bane had never concealed his idea of taking the Land of Gold away, so Weber and the others knew that they could not stop Bane and his party. Instead of ruining the relationship and causing trouble because of the Land of Gold, it would be better to be generous and give it away directly.

As for Bane, since the Shandians had offered to give it to them, it seemed legitimate, so he did not refuse at all. With a wave of his hand, the power of darkness swallowed up the Land of Gold. In other words, he now carried immeasurable wealth with him.

After finishing the Golden Country, they didn't stay in Arpaia for any reason. Weber contacted the people in the village in advance and prepared barbecue for the sky beasts, and Bane was naturally eager to go and taste the flavor of the Sky Island.
