Chapter 24
Not afraid of true villains, just afraid of hypocrites.
Now it seems that Lord Lord Sima Di is different from Crocodile. He is just here for history, and the starting point is no different from hers.
Thinking of this,
Robin opened her mouth and said: "What is recorded on this Poneglyph is..."

27. Is the giant a side effect? Green potion!
"What is recorded on this Poneglyph is the origin of the Giant race..."
Lord Lord Sima Di nodded knowingly. He knew these things.
After all, its suffix is "The Birth of the Giant Race."
Seeing Lord Lord Sima Di not eagerly asking, Robin didn't sell suspense.
"The country before the World Government once studied drugs that could prolong life here. Although the research was successful, the side effect was that it would make people giant."
"The prehistoric dinosaurs outside are derivatives of the research."
"Because life after giantization is inconvenient, only some people took the potion at that time and moved to the current Elbaf."
"This research room is used as a historical relic and protected by a protective shield to this day."
Lord Lord Sima Di didn't expect it.
It turns out that the guess of the previous life was only half right. The Giant race is indeed a product of research, but giantization is just a side effect, and longevity is the real purpose.
However...
"What kind of existence was the country before the World Government?"
I really want to go see it!
Robin looked at Lord Lord Sima Di's sighing appearance, her eyes flickering.
She saw the breath of "the same kind"!
A strong desire for truth and knowledge, and just purely wanting to dig, not using it to complete ulterior motives.
A pure seeker of knowledge!
This is someone Robin has never encountered in the twenty-plus years of fleeing in the past.
When Lord Lord Sima Di came back to his senses,
he found Robin staring at him without blinking for some reason, and an inexplicable emotion was born in her eyes, like...
Attracted by some of his temperament?
Lord Lord Sima Di tentatively reached out to hug Robin, who was startled from that state, but just moved her eyes away in a panic, but didn't push Lord Lord Sima Di away.
"Oh? Interesting."
Lord Lord Sima Di smiled.
Didn't go further to do anything, but let go of Robin's waist and wandered around.
Robin had hidden disappointment and humbleness in her eyes, and soon organized her emotions to catch up.
Because this place is protected as a "memorial hall," many objects are protected in the protective shield, and they are still operating normally after hundreds of years.
And,
there are explanatory stone tablets next to the objects, stating the origin and function of these objects.
Of course,
they are all written in ancient characters, so only Robin can translate them.
"Centrifuge, a device for separating components in liquids or solids or mixtures..."
"Cell cluster culture dish, a carrier for making longevity potions..."
Until the end,
the two stood in front of a glass bottle containing green liquid.
Lord Lord Sima Di asked in surprise: "Could this be..."
Robin didn't translate immediately, but read the inscription carefully, her expression looking quite shocked.
This made Lord Lord Sima Di very itchy.
When Robin came back to her senses,
she looked at Lord Lord Sima Di inexplicably and said: "If this is the longevity potion that can extend life to three hundred years, and you will also get the strong physique of the Giant race, would you drink it?"
Although longevity is good, and the destructive power is full after giantization.
However...
"I don't want to." Lord Lord Sima Di shook his head. "Just longevity and strength, what I pursue is adventure and freedom. After drinking it, I can't go to many places."
With the system, what is he afraid of not having?
Robin didn't know that Lord Lord Sima Di's real confidence was the system, and thought he was really so open-minded, so she couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.
Then she said playfully: "Then you don't have to worry, because this potion is... a potion that separates Devil Fruits!"
Hmm?
What the hell?
Seeing Lord Lord Sima Di's stunned expression, Robin laughed even more happily.
"You didn't mishear, this potion is a product accidentally obtained during the experiment, which can separate the user's Devil Fruit and transfer it to the nearest fruit."
Ah, this...
It sounds very similar to one of Caesar's experiments. In the anime, he also once made a Devil Fruit "regenerate" on the spot.
"A bit interesting."
Lord Lord Sima Di condensed Susanoo, wanting to pass through the protective shield to take out the potion, but found that this protective shield was different from the outside, harder than steel.
Since that's the case...
[Shatter!]
"Crack—"
"Clatter—"
The protective shield shattered like glass under the Spirit Ability, and Lord Lord Sima Di was able to take out the Devil Fruit separation potion and play with it with interest.
Separate the user's Devil Fruit!
It can give people who are not satisfied with their abilities a chance to replace them, and it can also...
Forcibly plunder the Devil Fruit ability you like!
Lord Lord Sima Di looked at Robin and said: "Are you satisfied with your current Devil Fruit ability? Do you want to change one?"
Robin was about to speak...
Suddenly!
The ground shook, and the surrounding buildings collapsed as if they were decaying, burying the two in the blink of an eye!

Little Garden, crater.
This active volcano, which had only erupted once, erupted again for the rare second time, and the scale was unprecedentedly large. Volcanic ash covered most of the island's sky.
And in the magma column of the volcanic eruption,
Lord Lord Sima Di rushed out with Susanoo, his expression not having too many emotions.
Robin in his arms was patting her breasts with lingering fear, and immediately it was surging.
"So dangerous!" Robin sighed. "Fortunately, I was lucky. The collapsed building materials just isolated a safe triangle area, otherwise it would be really dangerous. The whole platform was submerged in magma."
Lord Lord Sima Di shrugged, indicating...
With the "Lucky Halo,"
"low-level events" like house collapse couldn't hurt him at all.
