Chapter- 66
—-------------------
Even though she doesn't have high hopes to be talented in combat since she is a scholar rather than a fighter
So she doesn't think that she can be strong enough to rival big figures like the admiral but she at least wants to be strong enough to not become a burden for him who he has to protect every time
'But now it's not the right time' Robin said this in her mind as she felt that this was not the right time nor the right place to bring up this matter
She decided to wait till everything was over here and they back on their way towards their destination
While walking through the mansion, they come across a big portrait of someone even though Yoriichi ignore it since he has no idea of the person
But as soon light falls on the photo portrait, Robin stops as soon she sees the person in that portrait
'Wait isn't she?' Robin was immediately able to recognize the person in the portrait as soon she saw it
It is a photo of a very beautiful woman who seems to be smiling very brightly while wearing an exquisite dress
The woman is tall and slim, with short, straight-cut blonde hair and a beautiful smile on her face.
"It's definitely that zombie" Robin murmured as she was immediately able to recognize this person was the same as the zombie that Yoriidefeatedfeat before
Even though the zombie's skin colour changes as well and the zombie is completely emotionless but she could tell that both are definitely the same person
"Victoria Cindry" Robin murmured this name as remembered this person inside the portrait, not because that woman was an important person to her but more like this woman was so famous that no one could forget her
Yoriichi looks at Robin as he heard what Robin said as he looks at her with a confused expression on his face
Seeing this look Robin understands as she speaks to explained "Victoria Cindry was once a famous stage actress who died after falling off the stage twelve years ago"
"This is a portrait of that woman," Robin said as she pointed her finger at the big portrait of the woman
"And this woman is the same zombie that you defeated earlier" Robin continues to say this as she wants him to know why she stopped
'But why is it here?' Robin asked this question in her mind since having this big portrait of her makes no sense unless it's a person with the great importance of this place's owner
Otherwise, all other zombies should have their portrait as well the zombie that Yoriichi defeated earlier was also very different from all zombies they encountered outside
Robin remembers reading the newspaper at that time and knows that after Victoria Cindry suddenly died of a heart attack, someone stole her body but it was never found who stole it and why
"Let's continue" Robin said as she looked at Yoriichi since thinking about this now probably only gonna waste time
So it is better to continue to move rather than thinking of such things as these since surely after meeting this place owner, all things will be clear
Yoriichi nodded his head to Robin as they both begin moved forward and after walking for a while, they both finally came across a big door
Yoriichi who is constantly using his observation haki could sense that things beyond this door are important which is why he comes this way without getting distracted by any other ways
Because he wanted to see what was in here with his own eyes as the result he came to this door
Robin touched the door and was able to tell that this door not only big but also very sturdy and strong
"Can you cut it?" Robin asked this while looking at Yoriichi since her experience with Yoriichi, she considered him as someone who could cut anything
So she thinks this door might be no issue for Yoriichi to cut with his sword as Yoriichi nodded his head
As he came forward while he unsheathed his katana and took the stance and started to concentrate
*Slash* *slash* *slash*
With a few simple slashes, the door instantly got cut into pieces as the way was cleared
Robin looked inside and was stunned as this place looked like some kind of laboratory, not only that but it seemed this lab had been used regularly
Since this lab is very clean compared to other places meaning someone has been using the place regularly
Also, there was a very heavy stench of blood coming from this place, it was so bad that Robin had covered her nose
Not only that but there are many big tubes filled with some kind of liquid as she comes near these tubes
'Dead body?' she inwardly said this in her mind after seeing a naked body inside the big tube
Yoriichi also came inside as she couldn't help but see all this with sadness in his eyes because he couldn't understand how someone has the heart to do such inhumane things
In the middle of this lab, there was a big metallic table with blood on it, and Yoriichi could tell what happened there since he had read many medical books
But he is sure whatever happened on this operation table, he sure that person didn't do it to heal
There was a book lying on one of the tables Robin went near and started to read it
The more she read the more her eyes became wide opened while she felt sick as she more reads, fortunately, she had already seen the dark side of this world due to her paste otherwise if this book was read by some ordered person then surely that person already would have vomited at the spot
'H-How could someone do something like this!?!' Robin inwardly asked this question with disgust in her mind after feeling disgusted by the contents of this book
