Chapter 133: The Grandest Stage Prepared for the Straw Hat Pirates

As tailed beasts, Isofashi and Matatabiki are naturally very powerful, but their methods of attack are very monotonous.

A huge body and physique, huge amount of chakra, tailed beast ball, and attacks related to its own attributes.

For example, Youlu's attributes are wind and fire, and its regular attack methods are blue flame attacks and wind cannons.

Isobu is of water and earth attributes, and its means of attack is to control ground spikes and water cannons.

The only thing that can really threaten Barrett is the powered Tailed Beast Ball.

If it is a fast-type Tailed Beast Ball, the threat to Barrett is very small.

But the charged Tailed Beast Ball can't hit Barrett at all.

So after Barrett became familiar with the attack methods of the two tailed beasts, he already had a battle plan.

As for the huge bodies of the two tailed beasts, it is even more difficult for them to pose a threat to Barrett.

Barrett's physique is stronger than both tailed beasts.

So under Barrett's domineering iron fist, the two tailed beasts finally fell.

Rosen carried Lucci and Bruce to the two tailed beasts.

Rosen formed seals with his hands, and then, in Barrett's shocked gaze, the two tailed beasts were sealed into their bodies.

"What are you doing?" Barrett asked curiously.

He basically kept silent about what Rosen did before.

To Barrett, Rosen is his boss, so he does whatever Rosen asks him to do.

But at this moment he was really curious about how Rosen could stuff such a huge monster into a human body.

"Do you understand what the seal means?"

"You mean, that was a seal?"

Rosen nodded: "The two monsters just now are called tailed beasts, and the person who seals the tailed beasts in the body is called a Jinchūriki. The Jinchūriki can borrow the power of the tailed beasts. The more harmoniously you get along with the tailed beasts, the stronger the borrowed power will be."

"According to my estimation, their strength is at the level of pirates with a bounty of 500 million berries. They can't be said to be weak, but they are not that strong either. So what is the point of you creating these two Jinchūriki?"

In Barrett's opinion, even if he borrowed all the power of the tailed beasts, it would only be equivalent to the tailed beasts.

He could suppress it with just a wave of his hand. Such strength was meaningless to Rosen.

"Humans and beasts are different. Of course, I didn't create two Chūriki just to add subordinates to me. I just woke them up."

Barrett wakes up Lucci and Bruce.

However, the patterns in Rosen's eyes changed into an eternal kaleidoscope of greed, pupil technique. Disaster.

Rosen simply cut out all of Lucci and Bruce's memories of today.

Barrett felt the horror of Rosen's eyes.

"What did you do to them?"

"It stole their memory for a day."

Barrett's pupils suddenly contracted: "Is this the power of the devil fruit? Or is it the power of those eyes?"

"A very sharp intuition. Yes, it's these eyes." Rosen glanced at the dazed Lucci and Bruce and said, "Send them back to the bar."

……

When Lucci opened his eyes, he found himself and Bruce in the bar.

Bruce was still sleeping soundly, reeking of alcohol.

There were a lot of wine bottles around, which seemed to be drunk by the two of them.

Lucci pushed Bruce, and Bruce yawned and opened his eyes.

"Good morning, Lu Qi..."

The next moment, Bruce suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up from his seat.

“Did you find out?” Lucci’s face was solemn.

Bruce's expression was also very solemn, and he kept looking around.

He and Lucci are both CP9, so it is absolutely impossible for them to get drunk, or they simply don't drink.

But now they were drunk.

That means something unforeseen happened to them.

Someone had placed the two of them here and pretended they were drunk.

But who is the other party? And why does he do this?

What did the other party do to the two of them?

One question after another quickly crossed Lucci and Bruce's minds.

But I had no idea, absolutely no idea.

The fact that the other party would make such an arrangement shows that they do not understand spies, or in other words, they do not understand CP9.

At the same time, if an ordinary person made such an arrangement, he would definitely think that he was drunk, which means that they were under the control of the other party for a period of time.

"Go out and ask what time it is today."

Bruce went next door and asked the owner of the shop what day it was today, and at the same time checked the time.

When Bruce came back, he said, "It's 24 o'clock in the morning on the 9th, but my memory only goes back to the 22nd when I went to bed."

"My memory goes back to before I went to bed on the 22nd," said Lucci.

"So after we fell asleep, we were knocked unconscious, and then we were taken away by unknown people for about a day. I don't know what they did to us, and then they arranged us here and made it look like we were drunk."

Lucci and Bruce felt very heavy-hearted.

As spies, they don't like the feeling of being out of control.

However, Lucci returned to the shipyard and continued his undercover career.

As soon as they arrived at the shipyard, the boatman Bao Li raised his hand and put it on Lu Qi's shoulder: "Lu Qi, I heard that you drank without paying a few days ago. How is it? Bruce didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

Lu Qi was stunned for a moment: "When did it happen?"

"Wasn't it yesterday? Yesterday, Bipley said that Bruce came to your house to ask you for money for the drinks, and then you took him back to get the money. Did Bipley lie to me?"

"I forgot. I drank a little last night."

At this time, the boss's secretary, Kalifa, came over and said, "Everyone, go to work. The boss didn't spend money to let you be lazy here. Lucci, come with me."

Lucci came in front of Kalifa, and Kalifa adjusted her glasses: "I smell alcohol on you."

"I was at the shipyard yesterday?"

Khalifa looked puzzled. "What happened?"

"Bruce and I forgot all about what happened yesterday, and this morning, Bruce and I woke up in the bar, reeking of alcohol."

Kalifa's face turned solemn. As Lucci's subordinate, she was also an excellent spy, and what she was best at was intelligence analysis.

"Could it be someone from above?" Kalifa asked, "It could be the result of some kind of drug. After you came into contact with the people above, in order to prevent the disclosure of certain secrets, the people above gave you some kind of amnesia drug."

In their CP organization, there are indeed drugs that can cause people to black out.

"I can't be sure. I feel very bad." Lucci said solemnly.

They couldn't find any clues and the other party didn't leave any information.

Only the boatman from yesterday said that Bruce came to Lucci for wine money.

There is no other information besides this.

At the same time, the Golden Merry docked at the pier of the Seven Water City.

Luffy and others got off the ship, and after a series of adventures, the Golden Merry was already riddled with holes.

Especially after returning from Sky Island, the Golden Merry made a mistake during the descent, causing the hull to fall from dozens of meters in the air, causing huge damage to the hull.

If it weren't for Usopp's patching, the Golden Merry might not have made it to Water Seven.

"Can we find the shipwright who repaired the Merry here?" Luffy asked.

"Of course you can. There are a lot of excellent shipbuilders here. Almost all the best shipbuilders in the world are in Water Seven." Usopp said affirmatively.

Everyone then split up, with Nami going shopping and Robin looking for a local library.

Luffy went to find something delicious, and Sanji went to purchase supplies.

The Seven Water Capitals are very prosperous and are also huge islands rarely seen on the Grand Route.

Robin just found the library and saw Rosen sitting in a window seat when he entered.

"Grandpa." Robin immediately came forward happily and sat down opposite Rosen.

"There are people from CP9 here." Rosen said.

A trace of worry appeared between Robin's brows.

"Do you want to know how Luffy and the others treat you?"

"What do you need me to do?"

"Don't do anything, just let nature take its course," Rosen said. "If they don't dare to be enemies with the world, they are not qualified to be your companions."

"Grandpa, aren't you going back to the boat?"

"I will also prepare a foundation for you to hone your skills."

“I’m very strong now.”

"I left tailed beasts on two people in CP9. Defeat them and take the tailed beasts from them."

"I know what to do."

"Grandpa, when will you return to the team?"

"I'll wait for you in Marinford."

"Marinford? Isn't that the Navy Headquarters?"

"Well, that will be the grandest stage I build for you, but if you don't have enough strength, you will die."

Robin didn't feel that strength could bring her a sense of security.

But since she gained power, her thoughts changed.

When one's power is strong enough, strong enough to defeat all enemies, when one is as strong as Rosen, no one can threaten one anymore.

You will also have the qualifications to be fearless of anyone and to protect anyone.

bang——

At this moment, Rosen's body turned into smoke and disappeared.

Robin was in a trance. She was no longer surprised by Rosen's various abilities.

In the evening, Robin walked out of the library and a figure walked past her.

Robin paused slightly. The cold aura emanating from this man made the hairs on her body stand up.

This person is... from the World Government!

Is it CP9?

Lucci also saw Robin.

Sure enough, the son of the devil actually came to the door on his own initiative.

It seems that we need to speed up the task, after all, the Devil's Son is a big fish.

Lu Qi had no intention of letting this cunning woman escape.

Originally, I planned to slowly search for the design drawings of Pluto from Espag.

However, after what happened yesterday, Lucci does not intend to delay any longer. He plans to make a quick decision and directly kidnap Ace Bago, and get what the World Government needs through torture.
