One Piece 277/278

Yay, One Piece 277 and 278 are finally out.

277. Ohara's Tragedy! Terror of the Buster Call!
This continues on Robin's past 20 years ago on Ohara, West Blue. Clover declares to the Five Elder Stars, as well as the CP9 and Ohara archaelogists there, about his research. According to him, the people who made poneglyphs had a strong enemy and fear being decimated. Thus, they write down things in unbreakable stones for people in the future to read. Apparently, that "enemy" was the World Government, which bans the reading of all Poneglyphs. The Five Elder Stars think that he knows too much and instruct the CP9 to shoot him. That they did. Then the Buster Call arrives and attacks Ohara. The Tree of Knowledge catches fire and the archaelogists immediately run inside to put out the fire and save their library. The CP9 then drags Olvia away, proclaiming that Olvia knows something they need/want to know. Then Robin remembers a bit about her mother and asks Olvia if she is her mother. Olvia said no, not wanting her daughter to be the daughter of a criminal. Robin then told Olvia that she missed her, insisting that she is her mother. Olvia then starts crying, along with Robin. The CP9 quickly runs off, fearing they may get attacked by the Buster Call as well. Robin and Olvia had a tearful reunion, but then Saul came. Olvia instructs Saul to get Robin to safety, and Saul did so, despite Robin's protests that she wants to be with her mother. Olvia stays back to protect the Tree of Knowledge. Meanwhile, Saul gets under attack by the Buster Call, risking his life just to make sure Robin is safe. After many taking many attacks, Saul is finally fed up. He softly places Robin onto the ground and attacks the Buster Call ships, destroying six out of ten of them. If he jumps and body slam the sea, he can conjure up a tsunami able to take down and swallow up all ten ships at once though. Better than Alvin, he can make Pluto drink seawater. Anyway, Saul then grabbed Robin and ran, but Vice Admiral Kuzan (Admiral Aokiji today) froze his legs and stopped him. Saul told Robin to run, using the raft he built to escape. Saul and Aokiji fought and Saul lost (ironically, after defeating Jagaur D. Saul, he faced and thrashed another carrier of D, Monkey D. Luffy). Before his entire body froze, he told Robin to laugh even when she is sad or in pain, and then laugh with his signature "Dereshishishi" and turned into ice (Carriers of D laugh or smile when they know that death is unavoidable. Gol D. Roger smiled at his execution 22 years ago, and Luffy smiled too when he was almost executed by Buggy, at the exact same spot where Roger died). When Robin reached there, Aokiji was there already, sitting on a boat. Aokiji told Robin that he is not her ally, but that she should run and live a plain life, but if she became a criminal, Aokiji would be the first to kill her. He froze two lines onto the sea, so that the sea between them lead to another island. Robin gets aboard the small ship and laugh like Saul as she sails, crying uncontrollably. (In the manga, Robin rides on Saul's raft, big enough for a giant, duh.)

278. Say You Wanna Live! We Are Nakama!
Robin had a flashback of the near past, like she meeting the masked CP9 in Water 7, she declaring to Sanji and Chopper that she will no longer be in the Straw Hats, that she has a darkness inside her not known to the Straw Hats and that the darkness will consume them later, she making a deal with the CP9 to assassinate Iceburg and frame Straw Hats for it, she trying to assassinate Iceburg and telling him that the deal was to get the six Straw Hats but herself out of Water 7 safely, she listening to Spandam telling her that the Straw Hats came to Enies Lobby but will be crushed by the 10 000 Marines (though we all know who crush who), she listening to Luffy shout "ROBIN! WE COME TO TAKE YOU BACK!" at the top of the roof of the courthouse after defeating Blueno, and she declaring to Luffy that she wants to die. She comes back to the present, and she, Franky and the seven of the CP9 (Blueno and Nero were defeated by Luffy and Franky already) at Enies Lobby facing Nami, Zoro, Luffy, Sogeking, Sanji and Chopper at the roof of the courthouse. Franky was mostly hiding though. After a lot of talking, Luffy finally shouts "I HAVEN'T HEAR YOU SAY YET! SAY YOU WANNA LIVE!" Robin, crying, shouts "I WANNA LIVE! TAKE ME OUT TO SEA WITH YOU!" Nami nods, Sanji, Sogeking and Chopper smiles, Zoro draws and sheaths his Wadou Ichimonji (One Road To Harmony) and Luffy declaring "Leave that to us.". Luffy then said "I know who is Robin's enemy now." then he called "Sogeking.". Sogeking replied, "Hmm?" And Luffy points at the World Government flag, saying "I want you to burn down that flag." Soegking replies "Of course", freaking Spandam out. Sogeking then shows off, "This is my newest, the Giant Peashooter, I call it Kabuto. Look at its firepower. HISSATSU FIRE BIRD STAR!" And Sogeking shoots out a flaming phoenix at the World Government flag, seriously freaking Spandam out, as well as the Marines and soldiers. A Marine exclaims, "Burning down a flag... They are declaring war on the World Government!" Spandam asks, "Do you know what you did? Do you think you can win against the whole world?" Luffy loudly, confidently replies, "YOU BETCHA!" Spandam seriously freaks out now.
