BOOM!
A stream of water surged from the ground, and the arms created by Robin's Flower-Flower Fruit ability were all scattered at this mont.
Rosse also erged from underground unhard, standing in front of Robin.
Seeing that hint of disappointnt deep in Robin's eyes, Rosse let out a light chuckle, "What's wrong? A little disappointed?"
"I couldn't even dirty your clothes, I'm still too weak," Robin pouted, her words pretending to be unwilling.
A year's growth, and she thought she would have so strength.
At least when Rosse let his guard down, maybe she could make him suffer a major loss, best if she could bury him alive.
But who would've thought, it was just her overthinking it.
"You've only trained for a few days, being this strong already isn't bad," Rosse, amused, reached out and tousled Robin's hair.

[Nico Robin]
[Overall Rating: D]
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
At age 10 to have a D-level rating, although there was the aid of a Devil Fruit, it was still quite decent.
When they first t, Robin's rating was only E .
"Don't touch my hair!", Robin huffed, pouting in dissatisfaction, but she didn't turn away to dodge, just complained verbally a little.
The two of them appeared to have a harmonious relationship on the surface.
Rosse didn't care what Robin thought inside. Anyway, she was his prey, there was no escape.
After playing for a while, Rosse took out the Poneglyph rubbing he had prepared.
"Help translate this. It's the Poneglyph we got from Skypiea," Rosse said calmly.
"You don't know how to read Poneglyphs?", Robin looked at Rosse with feigned surprise, actually probing.
Although she wasn't very old, after what happened in Ohara, she seed to mature overnight.
"The characters from 800 years ago. There aren't many people who can read them now," Rosse shook his head, a look of regret on his face.
But deep in his gaze toward Robin, there was a hint of amusent.
After arriving at the Holy Land, he let Robin study freely and even offered to arrange teachers for her.
In the end, she was just a 10-year-old girl, no matter how much trauma made her mature prematurely, she was still too green.
Robin's choices were strength training and studying the World Governnt's policies.
That choice was basically putting her defiance right on her face.
Still, Rosse ultimately respected her decision and arranged the best teachers for her.
If he raised soone too soft, it would be worse than letting Robin grow up wild. That would be a real failure.
When the end cos, playing around won't an anything.
"Then I'll translate it for you," Robin accepted without hesitation. She didn't overthink it.
She simply felt that if Rosse didn't understand Poneglyphs, she could have the upper hand.
She did want revenge on Olvia, but Rosse was also on her revenge list.
To destroy and rewrite history, that was what she wanted to do.
But under that premise, she wouldn't let Rosse gain too much from it.
When she looked at the Poneglyph's content, Robin's expression stiffened.
'Sea God? Ruling the world? The rmaid Princess's daughter is Poseidon? Three ancient weapons? Returns once every 800 years?'
'Wait, news this explosive, is this even sothing soone my age should be reading?'
'And if I rember correctly, didn't a rmaid just talk to earlier? Claid to be the rmaid Queen or sothing?'
'The World Governnt is about to turn 800 years old, which ans, the rmaid Princess is about to return?'
'The rmaid Princess should be the rmaid Queen's daughter, right?'
'The current King of Fish-Man Island is the Sea God?'
'No, no! The rmaid Queen has already been taken by the Jaygarcia family. Based on what I knew about Rosse, he won't let that woman go.'
'At most, once she turns 30 and grows legs, she'll be eaten clean.'
'Wait a minute, could it be...'
Robin's eyes widened, staring at Rosse with a shocked gaze.
"What is it? So new information?", Rosse slightly frowned, pretending not to know anything, and looked at Robin in confusion.
"It's nothing," Robin took a deep breath, her thoughts racing, and found a clumsy excuse, "It's just… the information on here is kind of creepy."
But as soon as she said it, she regretted it a little.
'Why say it's creepy? Doesn't that an I have to explain what it says?'
If she doesn't give details, it'll be hard to make sothing up on the spot.
"What information?", Rosse appeared interested but was actually finding this very amusing, looking at Robin and asking seriously.
He wanted to see how Robin would spin it.
"There was once a divine Sea God who ruled the world. His daughter was Poseidon, one of the three ancient weapons," Robin couldn't co up with anything better for now, so she selectively revealed part of the truth.
From her perspective, as long as she hid two key points, it didn't matter if she shared the rest.
One was the rmaid Princess, and the other was the 800-year cycle.
If Rosse learned those two things, Robin didn't even dare to imagine what the rmaids would face, let alone that the 800-year return was imminent.
"Sea God and Poseidon? Both were human?", Rosse feigned surprise.
Of course he knew what Robin had hidden.
And her concealnt was within his expectations. [T/N: It would be hilarious when Robin knows that she was the fool.]
Fundantally, even after everything she went through, Robin was still a kind girl.
"It wasn't recorded. Could've been fish-n or rfolk, who knows," Robin shrugged, pretending to be relaxed, hoping to change the subject.
She didn't want to talk more about the contents of the Poneglyph.
The more she said, the more mistakes she'd make.
"A Sea God, huh? rmaids and fish-n probably never ruled the world. When do you think this piece of history happened?", Rosse asked curiously, just like when he asked Olvia about past history after the Ohara incident.
Co to think of it, the history she knew was taught by Olvia.
"It probably happened during the Age of Heaven, about 1500 years ago. At that ti, humans had low status, and little history was preserved," Robin said with so regret.
She honestly didn't know much. If it were Olvia, she'd probably know far more.
Maybe Olvia could even deduce the specific ti and events.
"I'll look into it. If I find any useful intel, I'll share it with you."
Seeing Robin didn't seem to be lying, Rosse nodded knowingly.
Look into it? Of course not.
Robin knowing little was actually a good thing for him.
That way, in the future, he could tailor a custom travel route for the Child of Destiny.
The less history Robin knew, the lower the risk that his fabricated history would be exposed.
Still, Robin wasn't the only one, later he'd have to investigate another person.
Ti to dig into Olvia's academic record and see if she really held a degree higher than Robin's PhD.
