"No, the last time I saved you, maybe it was just a whim..."

Facing Robin's sincere thanks, Luke shook his head gently and smiled: "But this time, it has a purpose!"

"Stop standing around; sit down and talk!"

He sat down casually on the steps at the bow of the ship.

He motioned for Robin to sit down and talk.

"Purpose?"

Robin was stunned.

But thinking about what the other party just said, she felt a little relieved.

Looking at Luke, who was sitting there with a calm expression, she was a little surprised and bit her lip: "You also want me to help you interpret the historical text to know the location of the three ancient weapons?"

"No, I told you, I never thought of using you to do those things…"

Luke waved his hand.

Looking at Robin sitting in front of him.

He did not pretend but smiled and said directly: "But that's not that I don't have ambition, but that I don't need it at all!"

Robin was silent.

Looking at him, she said nothing.

In this world, who wouldn't be interested in the Ancient Weapon? It's the legendary power that can destroy the world.

"You don't believe it, do you?"

Seeing this, Luke smiled lightly and said bluntly: "When I was in CP9, I checked your experience over the years... You have joined various forces, but no matter what kind of job, you can do it competently and handle it in an orderly manner!"

"You are a true genius, not only an excellent archaeologist but also have management skills that no one else has!"

Looking at Robin in front of him, he said directly: "After leaving World Government, I have formed my own power. Can you come and help me?"

"Is this your purpose?"

Robin was stunned.

She never expected the other party to find her for this purpose.

She stared at Luke closely, pursed her lips, and said: "As a former member of the CP, you should know very well how special and sensitive my identity is. How dangerous it is to take me in; aren't you afraid of causing unnecessary trouble?"

After saying this, she subconsciously clenched her fists.

With a bitter look on her face, she said loudly: "The world government will not let go of any person or force related to me!"

"Of course I know…"

Luke said nonchalantly: "As you said, I killed my boss and even made a big fuss in Enies Lobby, one of the three major agencies of the World Government, which is said to have been unbreakable by anyone for the past 800 years."

"In terms of the graveness of the situation, as far as the world government is concerned, I have committed an unprecedented felony, and I'm an unpardonable traitor!"

"Especially as a member of CP9, I know too many dirty secrets of the World Government!"

"That's different…"

Robin pursed her lips slightly.

There was a hint of complexity in her eyes.

If it were anyone else, she would be smart enough to keep doubts in her heart.

Pretentiously and submissively, waiting for the other party to reveal their flaws one day or find an opportunity to sneak away quietly.

But for this man who helped her time and time again.

After all, she still had some illusions and couldn't help but want to get to the bottom of it: "And, do you think I will believe you easily?"

"No, you can always trust me..."

Luke looked calmly into those jewel-like eyes with a smiled and said: "If I told you... the whereabouts of the two Ancient Weapons, I have known it for a long time. Do you believe it?"

Except for the most mysterious, Uranus, which is suspected to be the national treasure of Celestial Dragons, he naturally knew the whereabouts of the other two Ancient Weapons, Pluton and Poseidon.

He really didn't think about using the other person to find it for himself.

"What?"

Robin's pupils shrank sharply, and she looked at Luke in disbelief.

She pursed her lips and shook her head decisively: "It's impossible, I'm sorry... I can't believe it!"

"This... I think you should recognize it, right?"

Luke was not annoyed, either.

With a smile on his face, he took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to the other party.

He knew very well that the girl in front of him had had to flee alone since she was eight years old.

During this period, she experienced countless betrayals and fully experienced the horror of human nature.

Under the endless pursuit of the World Government, she was forced to hide in the chaotic underworld and survive by constantly betraying others.

That pure and kind heart has been scarred.

She has become as self-isolated as a hedgehog and can no longer trust others easily.

It will take time for her to open her heart and believe in others again.

"This is... historical text?"

She subconsciously took the photo and took a look.

The next second, her eyes narrowed sharply.

She looked at Luke in shock and said: "Have you ever encountered a Poneglyphs?"

"There is currently a piece on my ship, and this is the photo taken from it..." Luke shrugged: "I also know the whereabouts of some other Poneglyphs…"

Robin was completely shocked, and she couldn't wait to read the text on the photos.

But soon, she looked horrified and looked at the man in front of her in disbelief: "Do you know how to interpret historical texts?"

No wonder she thought so because the information above clearly recorded the whereabouts of the Ancient Weapon, Poseidon.

In addition, Luke had vowed previously that he would not use her, saying that it was not necessary at all.

Robin naturally thinks so.

"No, I don't know how to interpret historical texts…"

Luke waved his hand: "I once accidentally obtained a shabby handbook, which was suspected to have been left by other archaeologists who broke into the Grand Line in the past to find the truth about the Void Century. This is recorded in it!"

"What?"

Robin was filled with excitement.

She hurriedly grabbed Luke's arm, and her eyes were full of longing: "Where is the handbook? Can you let me see it?"

"At that time, before I left the World Government, I had already destroyed it!"

Luke said directly.

Of course, he made this up.

But there is also a certain truth.

"So, can you please..."

Hearing Luke say this.

Robin was a little disappointed, but naturally, she would not give up easily.

She still can't help but want to get to the bottom of it.

"I understand what you mean. Don't be so excited yet!"

Looking at Robin, who was completely excited, Luke shook his head. "But unfortunately, apart from the whereabouts of the Ancient Weapon, the handbook does not mention much information about the Void Century."

"The above only mentioned that a long time ago, there used to be a huge kingdom, which was suspected of having a technological civilization that far exceeded the current era..."

Luke didn't hide much and said half truthfully.

"A technological civilization far beyond the current era?" Robin's pupils shrank sharply, full of disbelief.

"Ah, I also secretly found some information that was severely blocked by the world government and tried to be erased..."

Luke nodded and said solemnly: "About two hundred years ago, a giant robot full of traces of time suddenly attacked the Holy Land Mary Geoise, causing a great sensation!"

"What!?"

Hearing this!

Robin looked shocked.

She just feels that her own understanding is about to be subverted…
