## One Piece Chapter 373, pages 10-11: Necessary Evil - Chapter: 373 - Pages: 10-11 - Characters: Rob Lucci, Sanji, Franky, Nico Robin, Kaku, Kalifa, Blueno ### Summary Page 10: Lucci studies Sanji and Franky and says, "What are you... forget it, I don't need to ask. Judging by how you opened the door, I know what kind of people you are..." Sanji, wounded but standing, answers with formality: "Ah. Please excuse my manners." Lucci says, "If you're here for Nico Robin... give up now. Her problem is beyond your understanding." He then explains the government's view: "There are some people in this world who are better off dead... Since they were born only to bring misfortune upon the world..." He gives an example: "There exists a sleeping demon capable of destroying the world... If there were someone with the ability to wake that demon... Even if she were only eight years old..." Robin's childhood wanted poster is shown as the accusation takes shape. Page 11: Lucci states CP9's conclusion without hesitation: "We should still eliminate her... for the sake of the people in this world." Sanji asks, "And your point is...?" Lucci replies, "What I've told you is exactly what Nico Robin's original crime was. Now she's a criminal with a much deeper history, but before all of that..." Kaku and Kalifa listen in silence as Lucci says Robin has "already sinned by her very existence!!!" He adds, "Only her death can bring safety and happiness to others. She has no choice but to accept her fate." To CP9, Robin is not a person to be saved; she is a danger the world government claims the right to erase.
