Episode 269 of One Piece exposes the broken bargain over Robin. CP9 resolves to wipe out the Straw Hats for breaching the deal, and Blueno steps into Luffy's path as the chase across the island grinds on.
Robin presses Spandam over why he was handed the right to summon a Buster Call, and the question drags up the destruction of Ohara, sparking a brief flashback to the island's archaeologists. Spandam tells her the Straw Hats are already on the island and should be in custody, though the report he holds is incomplete. Robin insists her bargain was simple: her surrender in exchange for the crew's freedom.
Spandam has Lucci spell out the exact terms, that the crew minus Robin would be permitted to depart Water 7 unharmed, a promise he claims was kept. By pressing on to Enies Lobby afterward, the pirates stepped outside the agreement, which CP9 treats as grounds to kill them. Lucci flatly states the agents want blood and hold the authority to take lives under the government's name. Sodom and Gomorrah trample through the Marines as Luffy escapes to a rooftop with Gomu Gomu no Rocket. The crew notices Sogeking has gone missing, and Luffy finally breaks into the courtyard, where Blueno conjures a door from empty air and asks when he will stop. Luffy answers that he never will.
