Along the way, Robin remained silent, thinking about Duke's unique views on heroes. When O'Hara was destroyed by the Demon Killing Order, she had been praying for a hero to appear, but there was no hero from beginning to end. After hearing Duke's warning today, she thought of O'Hara. At that time, all the scholars stood up, but they still couldn't stop O'Hara from being burned. She escaped alone, but was pulled out of the darkness by someone.

"Captain, the world needs heroes!"

Duke was leading the way when he heard Robin's words. He was immediately puzzled and asked, "Are you still thinking about what you said before? It's not in line with your character to put your hopes on others. Don't you only believe in yourself?"

Robin stopped and looked at Duke with a strange look, until the latter's scalp was numb, then he said quietly: "I still believe in you!"

Duke was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "It's really my honor to be trusted by you."

Robin looked at Duke deeply and said lightly: "Captain, I'm not kidding."

Duke shrugged his shoulders: "I'm not kidding either!"

However, there is a rule in Murphy's Law: What can go wrong will go wrong, and the more you worry about something happening, the more likely it is to happen.

"You still dare to be stubborn?"

"Of course, my information is always accurate." Duke said calmly, "Pirate King Roger has also been there. Maybe you can find the clues he left behind."

The common people suffered from the increasingly difficult life, but the rich did not, especially in the trade zone, where there were many rich people who spent money lavishly. Duke, who was good at robbing robbing robbing robbing, could barely be considered a rich man. Although the prices in the capital were generally high, they did not make him short of money.

Alabasta is vast and sparsely populated, with most civilians gathered in a few prosperous cities, with the capital Albana being the most populous city. Although it has been hit by inexplicable sandstorms in the past two years, sea merchants are still optimistic about this prosperous city, so there is a steady flow of goods every day.

Robin was selecting clothes in the store when she heard a gunshot outside the store, followed by screams of panic. When she packed her clothes and walked out of the store, she saw several unconscious bounty hunters lying at Duke's feet.

"Stop lying. I've never seen you exchange information with anyone." Robin had no intention of digging deeper. If Duke didn't want to talk, she wouldn't force him. A smart woman knows that everyone has their own secrets, and some secrets can't be shared. If you insist on asking for answers, you will only get disgusted.

"Every time I study a stone tablet, I get one step closer to the truth of history. This is exactly the ideal I'm fighting for!" Robin was in high spirits and studied it carefully with full concentration.

A burly bounty hunter pulled out a spear from his back and pointed it at Duke, saying greedily, "I'll take Huazhou."

The world of pirates is magnificent, with countless incredible monsters and natural creations, and countless strong people. This is the sea that men yearn for! What's the point of using an invincible battleship to push forward? Besides, the battleship is an external object after all, and it can't increase attributes. This kind of invincibility is better off not having it. He is different from the salted fish in the group. His goal is to become a thigh, not a pendant on the thigh.

"The next stop is Sky Island, where there is also a stone tablet." "Is this also your exclusive information, Captain?" Robin couldn't help but tease.

"I have my own source of intelligence!" Duke said mysteriously.

"If the Captain wants to know, just ask me." Robin chuckled.

The two returned everything to its original place, cleaned up the traces left behind, and then left the imperial mausoleum.

"Tsk!" Duke curled his lips and said unhappily, "Don't always tempt me with these things. I have a weak will. What if I can't resist the temptation?"

Duke is not willing to kill people for treasures, so he usually buys them at a high price. If the negotiation fails, he will deal with the person at his discretion. If the person is a heinous villain, he will rob him by force, and if the person is innocent, he will use coercion and inducement.

Duke was confused: "Who is MR.11? If he is the owner of this knife, I am sure I didn't kill him."

Pushing open the stone door in the hall, Robin immediately walked towards the huge stone tablet and reached out to sweep away the dust on it.

"Captain, now that we have finished interpreting this historical stele, where are we going next?" Robin interrupted Duke's thoughts.

There was a perpetual fire in the underground palace, and the reliefs on the walls were clearly visible, recording many mythological stories about Arabasta, the names of the previous kings, and their brief life stories. The strong historical atmosphere filled Robin's face, making him so excited that he could hardly control himself.

Having just interpreted a new historical stone tablet, Robin was in a good mood and planned to experience the local conditions and customs of Alabasta, that is, to go out and buy new clothes and cosmetics. Duke did not refute, he had been traveling recently, so he just wanted to relax his tired nerves.

Duke took a look at the densely packed and strangely engraved stone tablet and felt bored. Just as he was about to leave, he heard Robin say temptingly: "Captain, the stone tablet not only records the history of this country, but also mentions the location of Pluto. A powerful warship that can destroy an island with one shot is buried in a corner of this country. Don't you want to know?"

"You are such a cunning fellow. It was you who killed Mr. 11 and stole his sword, right?"

"So the original historical text is hidden in the underground of the imperial mausoleum..." Robin looked at the deep passage and asked curiously, "Captain, how do you know that the original historical text is hidden here? And such a secret mechanism, shouldn't only the royal family know about it?"

Seven or eight ferocious-looking bounty hunters who lived on the edge of a knife said viciously.

"How dare you come to my door? You really don't know how to live or die!"

"Why would you say so much to him? He's wearing a mask, so he must be a pirate. We at Baroque Works are committed to fighting pirates, and it's his own bad luck that he ran into our crossbow."

Duke fumbled around for a while, and finally pushed open a sculpture with a cat head and a fish body. In Robin's surprised eyes, after a sound of the mechanism being activated, the ground slowly cracked open to form a bottomless stone staircase passage.

Duke never expected that he was the first to cause trouble, not Robin. He was unprepared when a group of low-level agents from Baroque Works stopped him with Huazhou's album.

"The main text of Alabasta's history records information about the ancient weapon Pluto, not the historical truth you want." Duke leaned against the wall, feeling somewhat helpless. He had already told Robin before, but he didn't expect her to be so excited.

The two continued walking forward until they reached the royal sacrificial hall in the center of the imperial mausoleum. In the spacious square of the hall, nine stone sculptures were neatly arranged in three rows and three columns. Years of wind and sand had smoothed the edges and corners of the sculptures, so only their outlines could be seen. The strange beasts on the sculptures were different, and they all seemed to be totems of Alabasta.

Robin was really curious. Although she had long known that her captain was very mysterious and knew many unknown secrets, she couldn't help but be surprised every time. Duke seemed to be shrouded in layers of fog, with a hazy water curtain wrapped around him, which made her always worried and unable to distinguish the truth from the false.

"Forget it! If I really wanted a weapon that could destroy an island with one shot, I would have built one myself long ago." Duke shook his head. If it came to black technology, he had plenty of it in his mind. As long as the supply of materials could keep up, he could build a space battleship.

In short, he absolutely resists robbing someone's treasure and then silencing them. One can be shameless, but one cannot be without a bottom line.

Robin couldn't wait to follow the steps into the passage, and Duke followed behind her. When they reached the end of the stone steps, dozens of meters underground, there was a large underground palace.

In the many worlds that Duke and his friends traveled through, there were many cosmic civilizations with extremely high technological levels. It was not uncommon for them to destroy an island or even a planet with one shot. He had a clear definition of himself: physical skills plus domineering power. His future path was to hone these two to the peak.

"Captain, is shopping time over?"

"Let's go, it's not safe here anymore. Let's go to the port now and leave the country!" Duke didn't take a few small fry from the Baroque Works seriously, but it would be bad if he attracted Crocodile who was behind the scenes.

It's not that he's afraid of the crocodile, but there's no need to clash with him. With Duke's domineering skills, the crocodile is doomed to fail miserably, but then what? The crocodile is not on the list of strong men Duke wants to challenge, so there's no point in fighting him.
