Chapter 125 - 125: Robin’s Envy The next day, as the Dream Team left the casino, they saw Robin waiting for them, just as they had expected. "Ryuen, everyone, our boss asked me to accompany you for today's mapping," Robin said with a warm smile. "Hehe~" "Robin, we guessed last night that you'd be coming with us today," Anya said cheerfully as she ran up and clung to Robin's arm. "Alright, let's get going. Nami, we're mapping the area around Rainbase today, right?" Ryuen asked with a smile. "Yes. Since we're only covering the surroundings, we don't need to go far," Nami nodded. "Good." "Everyone, while it's still cool, let's head out!" Ryuen called out loudly. The Baroque Works land-and-water turtle transport had been borrowed by the Dream Team for the day. Once all nine of them boarded, the turtle began trudging toward the city outskirts. At the casino's large floor-to-ceiling windows, Crocodile and Daz Bonez calmly watched the transport turtle leave. "Any news from other areas?" Crocodile asked casually. "Nothing. The senior agents in each region reported that everything is normal. However, the Punisher hasn't sent back any updates for an entire day," Daz Bonez replied flatly. Hearing this, Crocodile's expression immediately turned grim. The enforcer from Baroque Works, whose job was to keep an eye on the operatives, had vanished. Without the enforcer, the president couldn't get accurate information about the operatives anymore. "Contact all operatives and have them meet at Spider Café. Also, send Mr. 2 to check if anyone is acting suspicious." Crocodile calmly gave the orders. "Yes!" "Mr. 0~~~" Daz Bones immediately went out to make the arrangements. Since Nico Robin had to handle matters related to the Dream Exploration Team, the role of secretary temporarily fell to him. --- Outside Rainbase City, nine people stepped out of the carriage. Except for Ryuen, everyone felt a wave of heat hitting them. They all quickly put on cloaks and headscarves. "Alright, let's start from here," Nami said softly, gazing at the endless desert. She then opened a portal, and the Dream Team members entered to retrieve their tools. Aside from Kuina and Hog, the others helped Nami with her work. Robin's eyes lit up when she saw Nami using her fruit powers. "That's such a handy ability~~~" Robin couldn't help but praise. She thought to herself that if she had the Door-Door Fruit, she could have accomplished many things that she hadn't been able to over the years. "Hehehe~~~" "Of course! Over the years, we've relied a lot on Nami's ability. Thanks to her, our adventures have been smooth," Daisy said proudly, holding a measuring device in her arms. The rest of the group emerged from the portal, and Robin led them toward the highest point in the area. "Everyone, put on your sunglasses. It'll help you see better," Robin suggested softly. She took out some sunglasses from her backpack and handed them to the group. "Wow~~~" "Thanks, Sister Robin~" "Thanks, Robin~" "These are so cool! And it really makes everything clearer~" The Dream Team members happily thanked Robin for the thoughtful gift as they put on the sunglasses. "Thanks, Robin~" "Hehe, no need to thank me. I'm here to help you, after all," Robin replied with a warm smile. The Dream Team got busy. Under Nami's calm and organized instructions, Ryuen and the others perfectly assisted her in every task. Their teamwork was seamless, and thanks to their coordination, Nami's map-making progressed much faster. Robin had never seen such a tightly coordinated group before. To be honest, she was genuinely impressed by Ryuen and Nami's team. She realized they were serious—step by step, they were working toward their dream. The Dream Team felt different from pirates. They weren't after some great treasure like One Piece; instead, they wanted to create a complete world map. Without realizing it, a trace of envy appeared on Robin's face. She thought to herself... Having such close companions to spend every day with must be a truly happy thing. Should she consider joining their crew? That thought flashed through her mind briefly before she dismissed it. "Robin, come help us~~~" Nami's voice called from a distance. "Huh?" "Oh, coming~~~" Robin was startled for a moment, then smiled happily as she hurried over. Before she knew it, she was fully involved in the Dream Team's work. --- Nanohana City Port. A navy ship with a dog-head figurehead arrived at the port. Garp had finally made it to Alabasta! "Vice Admiral Garp, won't landing here so openly alert the enemy?" a Marine lieutenant commander asked worriedly. Rainbase wasn't a port city. Earlier, he had suggested landing at a more discreet location in Alabasta. But Vice Admiral Garp hadn't listened. The reason was that it didn't seem cool enough! "Wahaha~~~" "Don't worry, that guy Crocodile won't get away this time. I'll make sure he gets a taste of my Iron Fist of Love!" Garp laughed carelessly. Lieutenant Commander glanced at his aide Bogart, but Bogart's expression remained unchanged. With that, Garp led dozens of marines ashore. On the streets, people were surprised by the arrival of the Marines, since they weren't supposed to interfere in the internal affairs of World Government allied nations. Even the Baroque Works agents stationed there were shocked when they saw the Marines. "Report this immediately!" "Yes, Captain!" The lower-ranking members of Baroque Works quickly sprang into action. They immediately sent news of the Marines' appearance in Nanohana to the Spider Café using an emergency messenger. Since these low-level agents didn't have direct contact with headquarters, they could only report through the Spider Café, which served as Baroque Works' public front. "Vice Admiral Garp, should we go ahead and arrest them?" Bogart asked, glancing at the agents hiding in the alley. "No need. Let them report it." "Crocodile is a Logia-type Sand-Sand Fruit user, so he won't flee to the sea. He'll be waiting for me in Rainbase!" Garp suddenly spoke with a rare moment of wisdom. Seeing Garp's confident look, the other marines couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration for him. --- ---- You can read 10 Chapters ahead on my pat reon.com/GMadman
