Several days later, Luo Tian and his gang finally managed to withdraw from the Don Quixote family's territory.

During this voyage, Koala, driven by a desire to become stronger, sought out Hawkeye Mihawk.

Her eyes gleamed with determination and longing as she earnestly pleaded with Hawkeye:

"Mr. Hawkeye, please teach me swordsmanship!"

Hawkeye was slightly taken aback by Kelra's sudden request, clearly surprised.

However, when he gazed into Kerla's expectant eyes, a thought stirred within him.

He asked, "Why did you suddenly want to learn swordsmanship?"

"To become stronger."

Kerla looked at Hawkeye and answered firmly.

There are many ways to become stronger; you don't necessarily have to learn swordsmanship.

"Because I feel that having a weapon in my hand is better than being empty-handed."

Kerla's idea was a bit naive, and Hawkeye was amused by her words.

But in the end, he slowly nodded in agreement, but said he would wait and see what Kerla’s talent was before making a decision.

But then, Hawkeye spoke up expressionlessly:

"However, young lady, there is one thing I must tell you: a woman can never become the best swordsman."

Her eyes widened, and she asked with a face full of confusion:

"Why? Why can't women become top-tier swordsmen?"

At this moment, Luo Tian, ​​who had been silently observing the situation from a short distance away, also heard these words.

He immediately felt dissatisfied, stepped forward, and confronted Hawkeye face to face.

Luo Tian angrily questioned, "Why do you say that? What, can't my Kela become a top-tier swordsman?"

Seeing this, Yamato also ran over to echo Luo Tian.

"That's it."

Hawkeye shook his head helplessly and asked Luo Tian in return.

"You should know about the power gap between men and women, Luo Tian."

Luo Tian was unconvinced and said to Hawkeye, "What's wrong? I want to learn, are you going to teach me or not?"

Hawkeye sticks to his old argument: we need to look at Kelra's talent first.

Luo Tian, ​​determined to go all the way with Hawkeye, said to him.

"How about we make a bet and see if Kella can become a top-tier swordsman?"

Hawkeye was slightly taken aback when he heard Luo Tian's words. He didn't know where Luo Tian got the courage to be so sure that Kerla would become a top swordsman. But experience told Hawkeye that even if Kerla had talent, she was still not good enough to reach that level as a woman.

"Sure, no problem. What do you want to bet?"

Yamato became interested when he saw that there were stakes involved.

"I want to bet too. I think little Kella can do it."

Everyone on the ship gathered around when they saw this. Dan watched the bet with great interest, and Anna Angel raised her hand and shouted.

"We believe in Kella!"

Kella is younger than Anna and Angela, and they have been treating her like a younger sister all this time. The two of them think highly of Kella.

"I don't know if she will become a top swordsman, but she will definitely not be as strong as me. I am a god."

Enel interrupted, but everyone seemed to ignore him.

"Alright, now, Mr. Mihawk, what's the bet?"

Seeing that everyone had expressed their opinions, Luo Tian asked Eagle Eye.

"It's pointless. This kind of bet is meaningless, and even if she has talent, she can't become one as a woman."

Hawkeye glanced at Luo Tian, ​​then took Kerr to the training room, intending to train her for a while to see how her talent really was.

"cut!"

Seeing Hawkeye leave, Luo Tian felt bored and gestured for everyone to disperse.

"This is boring. If you wanted to bet with me, that would be great. I'm a man with a cheat code. I can use upgrade cards to make her a top-tier swordsman."

But then Luo Tian suddenly remembered that he hadn't completed the task assigned by his system.

"Wait a minute, damn it, I haven't finished the system's tasks yet. At this rate, who knows when I'll get all those cards?"

"Where can I find something else to increase the bounty? I'm still short half..."

Luo Tian's head started to ache when he thought about the system tasks.

Just as Luo Tian was racking his brains over the system missions, a small boat was slowly sailing towards them from a distance far beyond the reach of the Dragon Soar.

A woman sat atop the small boat, exuding an intellectual beauty and possessing an exceptionally mature and composed demeanor.

She was holding a newspaper containing information about Luo Tian and the others, as well as a book she had personally compiled, which contained detailed records of various news about Luo Tian and his group.

At this moment, the beautiful woman's gaze was fixed on the Dragon Soaring, and she murmured to herself:

"Finally... I've found you, Luo Tian!"

It felt as if she had gone through a long search and wait, and this encounter was of great significance to her.

A gentle breeze caressed her hair, and sunlight fell on her face, illuminating her resolute yet expectant expression.

Luo Tian thought he should just let things take their course. Anyway, there was no time limit for this task, so he could deal with it later.

Dan suddenly called Luo Tian to the deck.

When Luo Tian arrived, he saw a crowd gathered around the boat, looking out at the sea.

"What's wrong? Why did you call me in such a hurry?"

The others simply gestured for Luo Tian to look down. Following their gaze, Luo Tian saw a small boat moored below the Dragon Soaring. A woman on the boat called out to them, "Hello, my boat is broken and we're out of supplies. Could you give me a ride?"

Luo Tian looked and was surprised to find that it was Nico Robin.

"What does this woman want from me? Is she looking for me to be her backer?"

Dan asked Luo Tian if he wanted to bring her onto the ship, and Luo Tian thought about it.

"Anyway, I'm already being watched by the World Government, so it doesn't matter if another Devil Child comes along. If I offend him, so be it. At worst, I can just launch another Buster Call and maybe even increase my bounty."

Then Dan and the others brought Nicole Robin up.

After coming up, Robin thanked Luo Tian and the others.

"Thank you so much! I really don't know what I would have done if I hadn't been lucky enough to meet you all."

Luo Tian stared intently at Robin as he approached, but did not say anything.

"Let's see what she's actually acting first."

Then, he turned to Anna and Angie beside him and whispered his instructions:

"Could you two please get this lady some food?"

After making the arrangements, Luo Tian turned and walked towards the lounge.

At this moment, Hawkeye, who had been silently observing everything from the sidelines, already knew Robin's true identity.

However, seeing that Luo Tian remained silent and seemed not to intend to reveal the secret on the spot, Hawkeye decided to suppress his impulse for the time being.

After a while, Hawkeye walked towards the lounge, gently pushed open the door, and immediately saw Luo Tian leisurely lying on the bed reading a book.

Hawkeye slowly approached the bedside, paused briefly, and finally broke the silence of the room, speaking:

"Luo Tian, ​​there are some things I should tell you... about the true identity of that woman just now..."

Luo Tian put down his book, interrupting Hawkeye.

“I know, the son of the devil, the orphan of Ohara.”

Seeing that Luo Tian knew about Robin's situation and identity but didn't care, Hawkeye didn't say anything more and returned to the training room to teach Koala.
