"Of course there's something, and it's important too. Don't you think it's very important to maintain a friendly relationship between our subordinates?"
Naruto smiled as he walked up to Dusky. He was only a step away from her, gazing at her face. The way he smiled was a little despicable.
Gritting her teeth, Dusky resisted the urge to punch Naruto. She took a step back and said righteously, "Sir, please be more respectful.
"Lieutenant General, please show some respect. Besides, I have no intention of building a good relationship with you."
"You don't want to, but I do."
Naruto smiled as he closed in on Dusky. His entire body was almost pressed against Dusky's. He tilted his head, only a fist's distance away from Dusky's face. He could smell her sweet breath.
Her chest was heaving up and down violently, and her face was turning green. She placed her fair palm on the hilt of her saber. Taking a deep breath, Dusky stared at Naruto and said with a frosty voice.
"If Sir Lieutenant dares to flirt with me again, I won't let you off."
"That's just as well. I don't want you to let me off either."
Naruto chuckled. He reached out his hand and caressed Dusky's face. Caressing her soft, supple face, he didn't forget to place his finger under his nose and take a deep breath. Then, he said something that almost made Dusky explode.
"So fragrant."
Naruto turned and left without a moment's hesitation. He left behind a red-faced Dusky who was clenching her teeth so hard that they were about to shatter. Her entire body was trembling as she gripped the hilt of her saber tightly. It was obvious that she was trying hard to suppress her rage.
Ignoring Dusky's appearance, Naruto walked up to Korby, who had just exited the cabin.
"Korby, there's something I need to discuss with you."
Naruto straightened his face and led the deferential Korby to a secluded place.
Korby's expression was clearly a little odd. Suppressing his emotions, he met Naruto's gaze and immediately said,
"Lieutenant General, that person seems to be the most wanted person in the world government. Why didn't you capture her?"
"You don't have to worry about this. Just remember one thing," said Naruto sternly, extending his hand and gazing at Korby.
"Remember, this is an extremely confidential mission. You can't tell anyone about Robin. Do you understand?"
Upon hearing that it was top secret, Korby, who trusted Naruto immensely, straightened his back and immediately saluted with a "Hi". His eyes were filled with unparalleled reverence, and there was no doubt in his mind at all.
Seeing the sincerity in Korby's eyes, Naruto waved his hand and gestured for Korby to leave, and once again instructed him not to tell anyone else.
Thinking that Naruto wasn't capturing Robin because he was on some important mission, Korby naturally kept this promise to himself and buried the fact that Robin, with a bounty of more than 70 million, was hiding on the ship.
Back on the deck, Naruto looked at the navy ships closely following the Merry. He stood upright, waved his hand, and said in a loud voice,
"Turn the rudder, change direction, and head to Jaya Island. This is an order."
"Yes, sir."
The navy ships had no complaints. Upon hearing the order, they hurriedly turned the ship around and used the permanent compass of Jaya Island to adjust their direction.
Glancing at Naruto in front of her, Nami raised her head and walked into the cabin, intending to measure the sailing route to Jaya Island. The moment she opened the cabin door, Nami was stunned. She reacted instantly and almost screamed.
Robin used her Flower-Flower Fruit ability very well. She stretched out an arm from Nami's shoulder and grabbed Nami's little mouth.
Robin made a shushing gesture and chuckled.
"I'm not a bad person, just a traveler."
"Who believes you, you're not the pirate king with a bounty of more than 70 million, why are you on our ship?" Nami's cold face returned to calmness. She didn't panic anymore and looked at Robin vigilantly.
"Didn't Naruto tell you, Naruto -san promised me to take me on a journey." Robin chuckled and her expression remained unchanged. Her face didn't change as she stared at Nami.
Naruto, who saw Nami disappear, was really afraid of exposing Robin's identity. He was walking into the cabin and saw the two people staring at each other. He whispered to Nami.
"Well, Robin will hide on our ship for a few days. Don't tell anyone about this, especially the Marines."
Nami glanced at Naruto and nodded her head. She walked forward cautiously and looked very unfriendly to Robin.
Sitting opposite Robin, the two people looked at each other and didn't speak for a while. Instead, Robin and Nami looked at each other for a while and took out a necklace inlaid with jewelry from her arms and smiled.
"By the way, there are a few treasures in Crocodile. I just brought them out for you."
"Treasures!"
Seeing the jewelry, Nami's eyes lit up. She swept away her initial caution and looked very enthusiastic. She directly threw herself on the table and desperately held Robin's hand that was holding the treasures. Her eyes flashed with excitement.
"Robin Sauce is really a good person. Don't worry, no matter how many days you stay."
"Thank you so much."
Robin smiled softly and let go of the necklace. She reached out and took out a bag of treasures from her arms and handed it to Nami. Nami, who was bought by money, suddenly changed her face.
She and Robin called each other sisters.
Seeing that the two people were fine, Naruto also went out and Yu Keya and Sauron said hello.
Regarding Robin, the two didn't say much and directly agreed. After all, they weren't interested in the bounty and they didn't have much feelings about being a Marine.
The reason why he became a Marine was because of Naruto.
The Merry and the Marine's ship slowly glided away from Alabasta and went straight to Jaya Island.
In order to reduce the chances of the Marine finding Robin, Naruto arranged Hina to command the Marine's ship. The latter didn't think much about it, she just put on a contemplative look and no one knew what she was thinking.
The ship sailed for two days and the sea was calm, but the Marine Headquarters was in a mess.
Learning that Naruto not only caught Ace but also didn't want to return to the Marine Headquarters, the Buddha immediately used a special Den Den Mushi to directly contact Naruto himself.
