3rd Person's POV

"What's with those accusations?" (Y/N) asked.

"They said that Robin was involved in what happened to Ice Pops. I don't believe them." Luffy.

"That must be the Galley-La Company's head office. It's connected to Dock 1. Look. The place is swarming with reporters. Those tough guys look like shipwrights. Iceburg-san must be in that building." Nami pointed out.

They looked at Luffy, who looked eager to go into the building.

"Are you serious about going?" (Y/N).

"Of course. I'll go ask Ice Pops in person why he said Robin was one of the culprits." Luffy.

"Let me warn you. Just remember that we're also being chased after by the entire island! Make sure you get some idea where his room is beforehand, and seize an opportunity to carefully sneak in." Nami.

"Well then, I'm off." Luffy said then stretched his arms.

"Hey!" Nami.

Luffy shot himself inside the building, causing the glass window to break.

"I-Idiot..." (Y/N) massaged her temples.

The townsfolk shouted, thinking they were under attack by Luffy.

"Hey, Luffy...Were you able to talk to Iceburg-san by any chance?" Nami.

"Yeah. He said he really saw Robin." Luffy.

"Can't be...Why would Robin do something like that?" Nami.

"I refused to believe it." Luffy.

"Same here. We really need to find her right now. Only she can answer our questions. And I'm really worried about her." (Y/N).

The three ran in the streets. They also encountered Zoro and Chopper.

Now they're resting at the top of a roof.

"Things have finally calmed down." Zoro.

"'Finally calmed down?' You had all those shipwrights chasing after you! That's why we ended up getting dragged into it, too!" Nami.

"I said it was unavoidable, didn't I? Btw (Y/N), are you okay? Did you get hurt?" Zoro.

"I'm fine, don't worry." (Y/N).

"Anyway, Chopper, I'm surprised you found out where we were." Luffy.

"Your scent." Chopper.

"Oh, yeah. Come to think of it, where's Sanji?" Luffy.

"Well..." Chopper.

N-No...

Chopper explained to us what happened.

"Did Robin really say that?!" Luffy yelled, refusing to believe Chopper.

I, too, refuse to believe what our doctor said.
