Reincarnation Paradise Park

Chapter 323: Chapter 24: Get Down, There’s a Bomb

Robin often mingled among various pirate groups, a method that could prevent her from being interrogated or humiliated, though it was obvious Robin hadn’t heard of this.

”It seems there’s a reason you’ve been able to hide until now, state your demands.”

Su Xiao had already guessed what Robin was about to say.

”Peh~.” Robin spat out the poison, the other poison capsule in her mouth becoming her lifeline.

”I want you to spare the Straw Hat Pirates. I’ll trade my life for theirs. As long as you promise not to harm them, I will willingly go with you.”

Su Xiao pondered for a moment, a smile appearing on his face.

”What... what are you going to do.”

Seeing Su Xiao’s smile, Robin shivered slightly, instinctively taking two steps back.

”Bruno, I’ll leave this matter to you. A few ’Guests’ are coming, I’ll go ’greet’ them.”

Su Xiao slowly drew the Dragon Slash from his waist, a few Contractors had arrived outside the abandoned factory.

Bruno looked at Su Xiao in confusion, a few seconds later he heard footsteps coming from outside the factory.

”Bai Ye, wait, let me handle the enemy...”

Before Bruno finished his sentence, Su Xiao had already walked out of the derelict factory, leaving Bruno somewhat at a loss.

Su Xiao is now an important researcher, and there must not be any mishap, while Nico Robin is CP9’s task objective, so neither side can afford any losses.

”Nico Robin, CP9 agrees to your request, but on the way to escorting you to Enies Lobby, you must not escape or resist, otherwise we’ll annihilate the Straw Hat Pirates.”

Robin nodded, this outcome was exactly what she hoped for.

”Okay, I won’t escape.”

”For now, you need to stay here.”

While speaking, Bruno tensed his body and let out a low growl: ”Shave.”

Bang!

Bruno’s forward-charging body suddenly stopped, crashing into an invisible wall. He stumbled a few steps before regaining his balance, his nose crooked from the impact.

”What... is going on.”

A layer of transparent light membrane appeared around the abandoned factory, trapping Bruno and Robin inside.

On the rooftop of a three-story building several hundred meters away, a boy about ten years old sat on the edge, swinging his legs back and forth, munching on a bag of ’Little Raccoon Crispy Noodles’ with a crunching sound.

”Banged into a wall, idiot, the CP9 agent is surprisingly naive.”

The boy laughed smugly, if it weren’t for his somewhat masculine voice, most people would think he was a girl, as the boy’s appearance was genuinely beautiful, though it might seem strange to describe a boy as pretty, such was the fact.

This young lad, only ten years old, was dressed in androgynous attire, with short silver-white hair draped to his ears.

”Hey girly boy, have all the enemies been completely trapped?”

A lazy female voice echoed, upon hearing it, the boy’s expression darkened, last night he was almost ambushed by this woman. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ

”Don’t call me girly boy, I have a name, I’m Li.”

Li turned his head angrily towards the woman behind him, a pair of soft, boneless hands wrapped around Li’s neck.

”Don’t be so worked up, little sissy.”

A woman crouched behind Li, her voice seductive and lazy.

The woman had a pair of scarlet eyes, her skin an unnaturally pale, and her nails were sharp.

”Hey... don’t touch me, you bitch.”

Li was already in the woman’s embrace, but hearing the term bitch, the woman’s expression suddenly went icy.

”What did you just call me?”

The woman’s hand slipped inside Li’s shirt, causing Li’s body to freeze, her sharp nails trailing faintly painful lines.

”N-nothing, sister Lilith.”

”Oh really, but your blood is just so tempting.”

Lilith’s scarlet eyes turned even redder, she lowered her head next to Li’s ear, revealing four sharp fangs.

”Ha~.”

A cold breath swept over Li’s face, making his complexion flush abnormally.

”We’re still in the middle of a fight, the enemies are coming.”

Although Li’s face was flushed, perhaps because of his young age, his body didn’t exhibit any major reaction.

Li was alarmed at heart, if this continued ’he’ was about to be exposed.

”The enemy is here!” Li shouted.

Lilith’s actions came to an abrupt stop, the scarlet glow in her eyes dimming slightly.

”This damned gene, nearly made me do something stupid again.”

Lilith exhaled deeply, realizing her earlier state wasn’t quite right, once calmed, she asked, ”How many of them are there?”

Li touched his forehead as if checking something.

”One person, main weapon is a knife, power attribute undetectable, agility attribute undetectable, stamina 25 points, intelligence attribute... undetectable,”

Hearing Li’s report, Lilith was shocked.

”Power and agility undetectable I can understand, but how can intelligence be undetectable? And what kind of development path is this? All-rounder?”

Lilith instinctively felt something was off,

”Contact those lackeys, have them block the enemy, they can die, it doesn’t matter. Treat it as a probe.”

As soon as Lilith finished speaking, she noticed Li’s face had turned slightly pale.

”Those lackeys... got wiped out, a total of... five strikes.”

”What?”

Lilith was flabbergasted, she and Li formed a temporary adventure group, with the two of them as the main force, recruiting a few lone Contractors before entering the Derivative World. This time, they’d recruited five people.

”Not good, we’ve encountered a formidable opponent, prepare to escape.”

Bam, bam, bam, bam...

Six consecutive gunshots sounded from downstairs, multiple locations on Lilith’s abdomen and chest erupted with blood splatters, staggering her to the ground.

”There’s a sniper!”

Lilith lay on the ground, grabbed Li, using him as a human shield.

All six shots hit, and the damage was extremely high, causing Lilith to mistakenly think there was a sniper at an elevated position.

Li, held by Lilith, though his eyes were full of anger, didn’t say anything. If he spoke now, it might cause internal strife, which would be the end of them.

”Shining Shield.”

A transparent hexagonal shield formed, like a crystal shield, light enough for even the slender Li to hold securely.

”Get up, it’s not a sniper, we’ve encountered a Lone Ranger. That guy’s an all-rounder.”

Li forcefully broke free from Lilith’s grip, with a tearing sound, his clothes ripped, exposing a large expanse of pale back.

”A Lone Ranger? That’s even worse than running into a sniper, where is he.”

Lilith couldn’t sense Su Xiao’s position. She lay on the rooftop, scanning her surroundings with her eyes.

”He is...” Li was about to say Su Xiao’s position when suddenly a white object was thrown by the enemy.

Li sensed the white object, it was like a piece of chewing gum.

”Get down, there’s a bomb!”

Li quickly ducked to the ground, using the crystal shield to cover himself, curling up like a turtle retreating into its shell.

The gum-like object hit the ground, turning red on the surface like a hot iron.

Boom!

The explosive shockwave hit, sending Lilith tumbling across the rooftop, her hair disheveled.

At this moment, a chill spread through Lilith’s heart, she was nearly dead before she even saw the enemy.
