"He really didn't recognize me..."

Approaching the outskirts of the island's royal city, Rose looked at Gance and his group passing by like passers-by, and touched her face.

She followed Kujo Xu Lun all the way, and soon caught up with Gance who was heading to the royal city, and found that he seemed to be with people from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce.

However, when Rose appeared in front of Gance, Gance did not recognize the princess at all.

Instead, he looked at the woman behind Rose, Robin, warily.

"It's Kujo Xu Lun..." The people from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce obviously recognized Robin immediately.

The leader, a fat, bald middle-aged man, avoided looking.

In the first half of the Grand Line, there was a pirate with a bounty of more than 300 million beli, and he was encountered by himself and others. How unlucky was this?

The bald, fat middle-aged man did not want to cause trouble, so he quickly entered the royal city with the people from the Chamber of Commerce and Gance.

When Rose was touching her face and doubting her life, a small mirror was suddenly handed to her.

Robin smiled and said, "You'll know after you take a look."

Rose took a look in the mirror and was shocked.

The girl in the mirror, who was looking shocked at the same time, didn't look like herself at all!

"He did it! Giorno..." Rose fell to her knees in frustration with black lines of low pressure all over her body, "It turns out that being eaten by him was not an illusion..."

"Don't worry, I will change you back." Robin comforted, and followed Rose into the royal city.

Although the economy of the entire island has become depressed, and the "rich country" is beginning to be unworthy of its name, the condition of the royal city is better than that of the previous towns. At least the clothes of pedestrians on the street have fewer patches.

Rose followed her and touched her face. She was shocked and suddenly realized, "It's the Tunton Fruit! Giorno got Valpo's Tunton Fruit?!"

Robin smiled and said, "Just realized?"

Rose was speechless for a moment. Robin used his own domineering power to lead Rose and followed Gance and his group from a distance.

"Those people led by Gance..." Rose lowered her head and remained silent, then suddenly said, "I seem to have seen them somewhere."

"Are they the guards from the previous palace?" Robin guessed, and his footsteps slowly stopped. In front of him was a huge high slope. Similar terrain appeared inside the royal city on an island, which basically represented the location of the royal palace.

.

"I don't know..." Rose shook her head, "It has been almost two years since I left home. Maybe I remembered it wrong."

Far ahead, Gance and a group of people from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce were walking up the hundreds of stone steps on the high slope, obviously intending to directly enter the royal palace of the island on the high slope.

"They went to the palace of the Kingdom of Halahitania..." Rose wondered, "Did Ganstha... be assigned some diplomatic mission by his father? But..."

Robin said: "He is the captain of the palace guard, and his duty should be to protect the royal family."

Rose pursed her lips, and... why did Gance so brutally shoot passers-by on the street when they were in the restaurant before... That was not like what Gance would do at all!

"Want to see?" Robin lowered his head and asked, "What did they do after entering the palace..."

"Forcibly break into the palace?" Rose shook her head repeatedly, "How could you do something like that..."

At this time, she heard Kongtiao Xu Lun's voice: "I can use your knowledge and color for a moment."

Who was she talking to? Rose saw Xu Lun looking at the air beside him, raising his hand to grab something from the air, and gently covering her face. But there was clearly nothing on Xu Lun's face.

…

ghost?!

Rose suddenly remembered this. The JOJO Pirates have three members!

Xu Lun's hand pressed down on her shoulder, making Rose tremble in fright.

Wearing a jet-black visor and looking through his narrow eyes glowing with white light, Robin quickly locked onto Gance's aura as he entered the palace with the help of "B.I.B", which is Lynch's domineering power of knowledge.

She pressed Rose's shoulder and said slowly: "Next..."

Rose's eyes widened, and another scene appeared before her eyes.

"She" saw Gance!

There were even sounds in my ears, which were the rustling sounds of clothes rubbing against each other as I walked, and the crisp sounds of footsteps walking in the palace.

"She" heard someone beside Gance say: "Your Majesty has been waiting for you for a long time."

Afterwards, Gance and others were led into a palace room, and soon saw the king in casual palace clothes, drinking by himself. He had a messy beard and sunken eye sockets, showing exhaustion.

"Oh hehehe, Mr. King, why are you drinking alone?"

Gance quickly stood on one side opposite the king, and "she" heard the voice and walked to the front of Gance and sat opposite the king.

"Why can I..." In the cold drink shop on the street outside the palace, Rose murmured to herself, looking at her hands and touching her ears, doubting life again. "I am obviously here, why?

I can see and hear Gance and the others in the palace..."

Opposite her, Xu Lun, who was wearing sunglasses, was casually flipping through the magazines in the store, seemingly not intending to answer his questions.

Rose took a deep breath and continued to focus on another aspect of what she saw and heard...

………………

〖Royal Palace, guest side hall——〗

"This can't go on like this, Mr. King." The bald middle-aged man sitting across from him twirled the gold ring on his thumb and said with aggrieved tone, "A small business like our Haiqi Chamber of Commerce has been struggling for the past few years.

Helping the royal family of the 'Rich Country' fill the gap of gold in the sky, but it has ruined a lot of wealth. If Mr. King does not repay the loan as soon as possible, our life will be very difficult!"

"..." The king opened his closed eyes, raised his head and was about to argue. When he saw several strong men with solemn expressions standing behind him, another wave of powerlessness hit him, and he smiled bitterly, "I also want to pay back the money.

,But……"

Gance stood like a bodyguard, looking around with calm eyes.

The king's hand trembled slightly, and he picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp. "As long as the gold from the sky is safely delivered to the navy's warships, and if it waits for a while, all the loans from your chamber of commerce will be repaid..."

"So," the bald middle-aged man from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce asked with concern, twirling the gold ring on his thumb, "will there be no more accidents with Heavenly Gold this year?"

"No, no..." the king murmured to himself, looking at the reflection in the wine glass, "This year the government will send CP9 to assist, so there will be no accidents... If we still can't keep the gold in the sky this time, let the people

Once again I have to pay more property to make up for it, then I, the king... will have to die to apologize..."

…

〖Palace, treasury——〗

Navy soldiers and palace guards were on guard here, while inside the vault, the CP9 agent Lion snuggled up with his long hair disheveled, meditating in the dark, and answered the phone bug in his arms.

Next to the phone bug is a smaller white phone bug. The radio waves of this phone bug are very special and can prevent calls from being eavesdropped.

Nudori sang a few words to announce his home like a kabuki performer, and the expression of the person on the other end of the call did not change at all.

A woman's voice came from the phone bug's mouth, and she asked calmly: "How is it?"

Natsutori didn't feel embarrassed, and continued to maintain the tone of an opera, saying in a measured tone: "I'm sitting in the vault, but if the pirate attacks, they will never come back! Others are searching other places on the island

clue……"

On another island, Stussy, who looked like an aristocratic lady in an exquisite dress, picked up a cup of black tea and asked the phone bug in her hand:

"Where's Lucci?"

…

〖Royal Palace, guest side hall——〗

"Oh hahaha! That's not the case! How could His Majesty the King die?"

The bald middle-aged man from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce stood up with a big smile. Before leaving, he turned back and said sadly, "Even if you are going to die, you should at least pay back all the money. Don't you think so, Mr. King?"

The group of them just walked away, and the king sat alone in the empty room with his head in his hands. Soon there was the sound of crackling and smashing wine bottles.

"Hahaha, the eyes really look like they are completely dead!"

The bald middle-aged man from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce who walked out of the palace said proudly, "Gance, how on earth did you do it? It's so simple, oh hahaha..."

He turned around and saw Gance looking at him doubtfully.

Until the people from the Haiqi Chamber of Commerce left first, Gance was still thinking about what he meant just now.

His eyes looked like he was completely dead...

He frowned and thought hard, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead without even realizing it.

But after thinking for a while, the sweat on his forehead slowly disappeared, Gance's brows relaxed, and his expression returned to calm.

I walked around the royal city with someone and found the person I wanted to meet in a hotel.

He is an ordinary-looking man, neither handsome nor ugly, but slightly pale, thin and tall. He is sitting by the window watching the people coming and going on the street, playing with a piece of paper in his hand.

There was only a bright red apple. After Gance entered the door, he turned around and asked: "Have you found the location of the vault?"

…

"this person!?"

Outside the palace, in the cold drink shop on the street, Rose exclaimed, causing others to look over.

Robin was focusing her attention on the flower eyes and flower ears blooming in many corners of this royal city at this moment. She was also startled by Rose's sudden exclamation.
