Chapter 512 Shocking! The legendary Blood-Eyed Ninja is still alive?!
He could tell that this guy really didn't know where the samurai was being held or where SMILE's factory was.
"That's true. It's normal for a lowly errand runner like him not to know where the factory is," Melly nodded and said.
The man in charge: ? ? ?
He felt really annoyed to be told that by a little kid.
However, out of fear of Luffy and his two companions, he didn't dare to say anything more and simply lowered his head obediently.
"This is troublesome," Luffy said. "I didn't expect even their crewmates didn't know about this."
"Then this guy probably doesn't know where the Diamond Fruit is hidden either," Franky said, scratching his head. "Looks like we need to find someone who's actually in charge."
"You're here for the Diamond Fruit?" the man in charge suddenly asked.
"Oh?"
"Do you know where the Diamond Fruit is?"
Franky immediately showed interest. If this guy knew where the Diamond Fruit was, their mission would be considered complete.
"Everyone knows that," the man in charge grinned. "After all, that's the final prize in today's bullfighting arena!"
"Bullfighting arena?"
Several question marks appeared above Luffy's head. What were those things?
Franky was also a little confused. What arena?
Seeing the puzzled looks on their faces, west Yan said, "Didn't I tell you about the arena before?"
He remembered that Ace had told him about this, but he didn't mention it when he talked to Luffy and the others later.
"no."
west Yan:
Well, maybe he was short on time, so he fell behind.
"Never mind, it's not important anymore."
Franky shook his head, then turned his gaze to the man in charge and continued, "Tell us where that arena is."
"There."
The man in charge turned and pointed to the huge building in the distance, saying, "That's our bullfighting arena."
"This arena is a unique feature of Dressrosa; there are matches almost every day."
"However, today is an event, so there will be more participants."
"And the cadre you're looking for will also be going to that place today."
Although I don't know who these guys are, since they asked, I might as well tell them about the Diamond Fruit. That way, I can consider it as completing the task assigned by the young master.
As for these people?
Ha, what does it matter to him whether he lives or dies?
"Bullfighting Arena..."

west Yan turned to look at the building the other person was pointing to, narrowed his eyes, and said, "Is that where Ace hid the Devil Fruit?"
He had previously thought that if he could find the location of the Devil Fruit in advance, he wouldn't participate in that duel tournament.
But now it seems it's not that simple.
"That's true. If the location of this Devil Fruit could be found so easily, then Doflamingo's plan wouldn't be so easy to implement," west Yan muttered to himself.
Upon hearing west Yan's words, the man in charge immediately changed his expression.
"Who exactly are you people?"
Why would they mention Fire Fist Ace's name?
Are they Fire Fist Ace's men?
If that's the case, then I might be silenced!
"Looks like you're not being honest," Franky said with a sneer at the man in charge. "Are you deliberately hiding something? Speak!"
This time, the man in charge didn't speak, but just looked at the group with a grim expression.
"Speaking of which..." west Yan suddenly said, "You weren't that afraid of that navy officer just now."
He remembered that when he said the man might be a naval admiral, the man didn't show any fear.
This is clearly unreasonable!
After all, Doflamingo is no longer a Shichibukai, so normally they should be afraid. But judging from this man's behavior, there is clearly something wrong with him.
"How...how could that be?" The man in charge looked away and said, "I'm actually quite scared, after all..."
""
"This way of lying is really..."
'
Seeing the man in charge trying so hard to explain himself, west Yan was at a loss for words.
If someone could be fooled like that, how stupid would they have to be?
"Oh, so you weren't lying to us after all!" Luffy said.
west Yan:
Well, he definitely overestimated this guy's intelligence.
After silently muttering a complaint to himself, west Yan turned around and put Mei Li on the ground.
Then he said, "Luffy, you can't even understand something this simple? Your brain is really..."
'
"Hey, west Yan, you'll give us away if you talk like that!"
"ha?
'
"Does saying that mean we won't be exposed?" west Yan rolled his eyes.
That's true, but west Yan wasn't too worried. After all... from the very beginning, he had no intention of letting this guy go.
The man in charge turned green as he watched the two men talking to each other.
What did he just hear?
Luffy?
Is that Straw Hat Luffy?
So what's the story behind this straw hat kid's name, west Yan?
west Yan?
Blood-Eyed Ninja - Xiyan?
Ōtsutsuki Saien?
In other words... this legendary man did not die!
Upon realizing this, the man in charge's pupils shrank to their limit, his heart filled with horror.
Then, he remembered something: ...the young master seemed quite interested in this blood-eyed ninja!
Thinking of this, he thought to himself: If I could tell the young master this news, he would surely reward me!
The man in charge, realizing this, immediately became excited.
Then, without hesitation, he ran off into the distance, clearly intending to improve his speed first.
This action immediately attracted the attention of several people.
"Trying to escape?" Mary said. "That won't do!"
After saying that, she raised her hand and unleashed the power of the wind, easily knocking her opponent to the ground.
This change made the man in charge realize one thing: he couldn't leave here alive.
At that moment, fear overwhelmed his greed.
"Gentlemen, could you spare my life?" the man in charge said, his face grim. "I absolutely will not tell anyone what I heard today."
The group simply snorted in response and did not answer the question.
Clearly, they didn't believe what this guy was saying.
Understanding the group's attitude, the man in charge immediately shouted, "Help me! The Blood-Eyed Ninja is alive! He's still alive!"
"Someone come here!"
To his despair, no one on the street more than ten meters away heard his shouts, as if the sound could not be transmitted at all.
This left the man in charge feeling utterly hopeless.
"Don't waste your energy," Mary said. "I won't let you transmit your voice."
Once she understood what the other party wanted to do, Meili had already sealed off the surrounding space with wind.
In this way, even if the other party wanted to shout, they wouldn't be able to reach anyone.
"How could you possibly do such a thing?!" the man in charge exclaimed in horror.
"The wind can't completely block out sound, but it can make it extremely quiet," Mary explained. "That way, even if someone hears something, they'll just think they misheard."
Moreover, this place is more than ten meters away from the street, so it's normal that no one could hear the sounds here clearly.
The man in charge:
In other words, is he really going to die this time?
They still couldn't transmit any intelligence, and died meaninglessly.
Thinking of this, the man in charge felt a sense of despair.
"Meili, bring him here," west Yan said.
"profound!"
Knowing what west Yan wanted to do, Mei Li immediately used the power of the wind to bring the man in charge over and placed him in front of west Yan.
Xi Yan took off his sunglasses and calmly looked at the man in charge, saying, "Come on, look into my eyes."
Upon hearing west Yan's words, the man subconsciously looked up at Xi Yan, and then a thought came to mind.
"Are these the eyes of the legendary Blood-Eyed Ninja?"
No wonder he has such a title...
With this thought in mind, the man in charge lost consciousness.
"Now, we ask, you answer."
"yes.
""
The man in charge became very docile, and his expression became somewhat wooden.
"You really don't know where the warrior is being held?" west Yan asked.
"I don't know."
The man in charge shook his head and said, "What I said before was true. I didn't lead the capture of the samurai, so I don't know where he was taken."
He wasn't in charge of the subsequent detention, so he didn't know the other party's location.
Hearing the man in charge's words, Franky revealed an expression that said, "I knew it."
It seems his earlier assumption was correct; the man had indeed not lied.
Xi Yan didn't show any surprise, and continued to ask, "What about the factory?"
"I have never heard of any factories in our Dressrosa."
"Looks like this guy really doesn't know," Luffy said, scratching his head.
"It's normal for a nobody like him not to know," Franky said. "After all, this matter is very important to Doflamingo."
According to Law, the SMILE factory is where artificial Devil Fruits are made, and it is a place that must never be easily exposed.
Therefore, it's normal that very few members of the Don Quixote family knew about this.
"Then I reckon the same people have been managing the factory from the very beginning," west Yan said, stroking his chin. "That way, the factory's location can be kept a secret as much as possible."
It seems that Doflamingo is more cautious than he thought.
"It's alright, we'll find it sooner or later," Franky said.
With their abilities, they'll find a factory location sooner or later, so Franky isn't in a hurry.
west Yan nodded, then continued to ask, "Do you know where the Diamond Fruit is?"
"I don't know," the man in charge shook his head and said, "but I suspect that Devil Fruit is in the arena."
"Oh?"
Franky raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why do you say that?"
"Isn't it normal for the prizes to be stored in the arena?" the man in charge said. "After all, today is the day of the competition."
Franky paused for a moment upon hearing this, then nodded and said, "That's true."
Although it's unclear when the competition will start, it makes perfect sense to place the prizes in the arena since they're from a major tournament.
Then, Franky turned to Xiyan and continued, "So, does that mean we should go into that arena and take a look?"
Upon hearing this, Luffy immediately showed interest and said, "I want to participate in the arena!"
If he could win this tournament, he could get his hands on the Devil Fruit that Ace wanted. "But this looks like a trap," Mary said worriedly.
She even suspected that Doflamingo had sent people to lie in wait for them at the arena.
"I know, but we absolutely have to get that Devil Fruit," Luffy said.
This was something they promised Ace, so naturally they had to keep their word.
Upon hearing this, Mei pursed her lips. What she said was true, but she couldn't really fall into the trap that the other party thought.
Thinking of this, Meili turned to look at Xiyan.
Xi Yan stared at the man in charge for a moment, then asked, "Did your young master say anything?"
"some."
The man in charge nodded and said, "The young master once instructed that if we encounter any unfamiliar faces, we should find a way to leak information about the arena."
"Of course, that also includes the relationship between the Diamond Fruit and Fire Fist Ace."
Upon hearing this, Franky immediately showed a surprised expression. Was that so?
Xi Yan said with a hint of helplessness, "So, even if we hadn't mentioned this to you, you would have found a way to tell us the information?"
"No, that's not it."
The man in charge shook his head and said, "Although the young master did give instructions on this matter, I have a very bad feeling about Straw Hat Boy, so I plan to wipe you all out."
His initial thought was that this group didn't seem like strong people, so he figured he could just wipe them out without a second thought.
After all... who told the other party to provoke him?
To his surprise, he was defeated by the blind man before he could even make a move.
"What?"
Mei looked at the man in charge with dissatisfaction and said, "You're the ones who did something wrong, so why are you targeting us?"
"Young lady, you're too naive," the man in charge said seriously. "How could we possibly reason with you in a place like this?"
This straw hat kid just showed up out of nowhere and ruined their plans. How could they possibly let it go?
Therefore, it is quite normal to have the idea of dealing with the other party.
Upon hearing this, Mei fell silent. She now understood what west Yan and Franky meant by what they had said earlier.
The other party definitely had no intention of being reasonable from the very beginning.
Thinking of this, Mary showed a look of disgust, clearly loathing this scoundrel.
Seeing this, west Yan rubbed the little guy's head and said, "Meili, there is more evil in this world than you can imagine."
This time, the little guy just nodded and didn't say anything more.
Just as west Yan once said, she still has a lot to learn.
So... learn slowly.
