Anyway, with Kairo, his ass was currently inside the base, where he met the others: a man with a steel Devil Fruit, a fat man who was slow but seemed kind, a lady who spoke very fast and possessed a mole fruit, and a chick who owned the bar and had blue hair, also possessing a spike Devil Fruit.
For this mission of his, he had:
Black Den-Den Mushi → records secretly (great for catching Baroque Works plotting)
Video Den-Den Mushi → could give him playback with audio + visuals, like evidence.
So basically, he could record the call and also have video evidence of it. Said evidence would then be sent to the Straw Hats. The shit he does has a ninja. He also had made a shadow clone whose current job was scouting out the surroundings to make sure this wasn't a trap, and so far, he was surviving quite well.
As long as nothing too bad happened, he would be fine. He was in control of himself for the most part. It would take heaven and earth falling for that to happen.
As the Baroque members were quarreling, suddenly a woman entered the room. Her skin seemed dark, maybe a tan from the sun or something—he didn't know, he wasn't a melanin counter. Anyway, she had on a cowboy hat.
Badump
Hm, was it hot in here, or something?
Badump
Nah, it was just hot in here. There was nothing else.
He even forgot to turn on his Den-Den Mushi to record the proof. Something was stopping him.
"I am sure you're all wondering why you are here." Dam, her voice sounded calming. He blinked. He needed to calm down.
If he remembered correctly, she was Miss All Sunday or something. Was the temperature in the room hot or something? His lips weren't that chapped, were they now?
As she continued to speak about meeting Mister Zero for the first time, he instinctively showed a face of shock. For just a split second, though, his face reverted back to normal. Just for a second, he noticed her gaze on him and his back went cold.
'Think, Kairo!' He thought long and hard about this bs, and looked up at her.
"Why the hell are you staring at me?" Truly keeping the zestiness intact, as that was his whole cover.
"Your face... it changed. Have you met the Straw Hats?"
Pondering that line for a bit, he opened his mouth and said:
"When I arrived at Little Garden, Mister 3 said that he had taken care of the Straw Hats, and like boss ordered, I took care of them." As those words left his mouth, he took out something from his pocket. He pulled out the Kilo-Kilo Fruit.
"This appeared in my bag of fruits when I was done." Miss All Sunday looked at it.
Yup, this was indeed the Kilo-Kilo no Mi, which meant he in fact put them in a pact. So Mister 2 did do his job. It seemed like the Straw Hats were that good after all.
Oh well, still, she knew what she saw.
"Mister 2, that form you took on—white hair, dark skin, yellow eyes."
Fuck... the way she said yellow sounded like his eyes were slowly turning red. On an unrelated note, he had a half-formed ring around his eyes, like Mihawk and Gunko, but his didn't seem finished.
Probably had something to do with the Abyss and him traveling through it so frequently. The Abyss had left its mark on him. If used too much, his eyes would in fact turn red, and the rings around his eyes would finally be completed. But enough about hypotheticals, let's focus on the present.
Random bullshit, go.
He seemed thoughtful. He passed his hand over his face, lightly removing the genjutsu but also changing his facial features to something older. TL;DR, he made himself look unrecognizable, but not enough that she could tell it was a different face.
"You mean this face?"
As she nodded, he passed his hand over his face again, returning back to Bon Clay.
"Ooooooh honey, while I was giving Mister 2 his FABULOUS send-off on that dreadful island, guess what I saw!? This man—darling—he had the most ghastly black wings and FIRE shooting out of his back like some overcooked stage prop! Ugh, and he was all bloodied up, stumbling about while the Marines chased him like it was opening night at the Kabuki theatre! And worst of all—WORST OF ALL!—he had the audacity to get my beautiful outfit dirty! So of course, sweetie, I had no choice but to dispose of him, mwah~!"
Robin had a thoughtful look on her face. Her face seemed to widen a bit; she seemed to have thought of something.
"Ooooh honey, on my way back here—guess who I bumped into!? Those darling Straw Hats! Can you believe it, sweetie? They were all alive and kicking, looking fresher than a daisy at a spring ball! Which means, of course, that Mister 3, that little liar, did not kill them like he so boldly claimed! Shame, shame, SHAME! How scandalous~!"
Robin's brow furrowed. Hm, who could have thought a Lunarien still lived, hm.
"For your safety, I would recommend not using that form when the Navy is around."
"And why is that, Darling~?" Jeez, he was getting good at this.
For some odd reason, Robin didn't feel like this "darling" from Bon Clay was the usual one. Shit sounded like a guy saying that to a girl he was flirting with... but... it was Bon Clay, so her mind must be playing tricks on her.
"It's better if you take the advice. If you wish to die, I will not stop you," she said coldly before walking away.
'Dam, she's hot.'
Kairo paused...
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKK.
A/N she does not get him to stop his act
