Chapter 370 The strong wind blowing towards Alabasta!
There was a storm all over the sea.
No one knows which direction the wind of the world is slowly blowing towards Alabasta.
However, this ancient desert kingdom is also suffering from disasters. In many places, it has not rained for several years.
The farmland in the desert oasis is dry everywhere, and pirates even appear on the coast and rivers from time to time to land in the kingdom and rob the people.
The cause of all these disasters was that the King of Alabasta, Neferutli Kobra, secretly used a dancing powder that could produce artificial rainfall, causing the entire kingdom to rain on Albana.
It will cause drought in other parts of the kingdom.
Due to King Kobra's selfishness, some people within the kingdom spontaneously began to rebel. They gathered together and organized a rebel army to overthrow the king. Even many of the king's troops chose to join the rebel army.
King's army, rebel army, drought, pirates.
The entire Kingdom of Alabasta is also in chaos.
La Rovana.
In this town in Alabasta, a group of pirates have just landed in this town, clamoring to steal the treasure here.
fortunately.
A figure falls from the sky!
This man has a horizontal suture scar in the middle of his face, is wearing a black coat, has a cigar in the corner of his mouth, and has a gold hook like a scorpion on his left hand.
Although he didn't look like a good guy, and he was even scarier than these pirates, he took the initiative to help the people deal with these pirates.
"Crocodale!"
"Crocodale!"
The entire people of La Rovana spontaneously cheered each other's name, looking with admiration at the figure who left alone after solving the pirates!
As for the King's Army, who had belatedly arrived and wanted to deal with the pirates, they could only watch this scene happen. They were once again one step behind Crocodile.
The pirate Crocodile, who was consecrated by the World Government under the King Shichibukai, looked like the patron saint of Alabasta. He was always the first to help the people deal with the invading pirates, which also gained him the respect of the people of Alabasta.
Trust and support.
"snort…"
Crocodile left the town with a bag of treasure on his back, a contemptuous smile on his lips, whether he was mocking the weakness of the pirates or the stupidity of the people, and hurried back to his base camp.
Rainy land.
This is the oasis city of Alabasta.
Due to its extreme wealth, this city is called the "Dream City". Most of the casinos in Alabasta are located in the Rain Land. The largest casino among them is called the Rain Banquet, and it is also the base camp where Crocodile has stayed for a long time.
same.
This is also the real home base of the Baroque Works Society.
A woman wearing a top hat and dressed smartly and smartly had a smile on her face when she saw Crocodile coming back.
"Back from the show?"
"Ah, a bunch of idiots..."
Crocodile held his cigar in his mouth and blew out a smoke ring nonchalantly: "Every time, we deliberately let pirates plunder the town, and then I have to deal with the pirates. Now my reputation in Alabasta should be more than
Is the king even taller?"
"It's almost done..."
The woman wearing a top hat nodded with a smile, took out a stack of portraits and placed them in front of him: "Although this kind of performance goes well, there will still be some troublesome people who will make trouble..."
This stack of portraits is exactly what the Straw Hats look like.
The Straw Hats destroyed the Baroque Works' stronghold at Whiskey Peak, and thwarted the Baroque Works' attempt to attack them in the Ancient Island Garden.
now…
The Straw Hats are heading straight for Alabasta.
Monkey D. Luffy, the captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, only has a bounty of 30 million beli, but he has already defeated several senior officials of Crocodile's Baroque Works, and even several powerful people including Mr3.
Devil fruit users.
Moreover, the Straw Hats already knew from Alabasta's princess Neferutali Vivi that the man behind Baroque Co., Ltd. was Crocodile himself, and even knew about Crocodile's secret actions in Alabasta.
action.
no doubt.
The Straw Hats, a group of rookie pirates who have just entered the Grand Line, must have come to Alabasta to challenge Crocodile, King Shichibukai.
"Straw Hat Boy?"
Crocodile held a cigar in his mouth and did not take the other party seriously at all: "Since they came to Alabasta to die, it saves me from continuing to hunt them down..."
"Maybe they are in more trouble than we thought."
The woman wearing a high hat looked at the conceited King Shichibukai and had to mention the Baroque Works to Crocodile.
"First of all, in order to complete the plan to seize Alabasta, all the hands of the Baroque Works are converging here to attack the failed senior Straw Hat cadres Mr5, Mr3, Miss Golden Week, etc. at Whiskey Peak and the Small Garden of the Ancient Island.
You have given up on me, and the only senior cadres we can use now are Mr4, Mr2 and Mr1..."
"I know."
Crocodile didn't care about this, nor did he care about the cadres who lost to the Straw Hat Pirates. He grinned and showed a cruel smile: "There is no need to keep the failed losers. There are still two hundred candidates."
Cadres, just pick up some and make up for it..."
The classes of the Baroque working society were distinct.
The highest level of the entire Baroque Working Group must be Crocodile and his partners, followed by senior cadres code-named Mr and Miss.
certainly.
Senior cadres will be discarded by Crocodile at any time due to failure and weakness, so naturally they need to be replaced. For this reason, Baroque Works has up to 200 candidates.
These candidates are called billionaires. Below the billionaires are up to 1,800 millionaires, who are mainly composed of pirates or thugs with good skills.
The entire Baroque Working Society has a total of more than 2,000 people.
Even though most of them are just trash and there are only a few Devil Fruit users, they can still be called a big force.
"The issue is…"
"I've received the latest news."
The woman wearing a tall hat shook her head and sighed faintly: "While you were away, someone reported something to me..."
"Bucky the Clown is here..."
"!!!"
Crocodile's eyes suddenly became sharp.
Bucky the Clown.
If Bucky the Clown was just an unknown little pirate in the past, now Bucky the Clown has almost become the talk of the world!
because…
This pirate dares to kill a Celestial Dragon!
With the feat of killing the Draco, Clown Bucky's bounty has reached as high as 730 million beli. This bounty figure is extremely rare even in the Grand Line!
Pirates have a very special view on strength. They just think that some pirates are rewarded with high bounties by the navy, so they know that they are not easy to mess with!
Crocodile is the king of the Shichibukai, and the World Government has already banned his bounty. Before the ban, Crocodile's bounty amount was not even more than 100 million...
Although Crocodile knew that his strength would definitely be more than this a long time ago, Bucky the Clown with a bounty of 730 million Baileys would definitely bring him trouble...
damn it…
Forget about the Straw Hats...
After all, he wanted to kill the Straw Hats first...
But Bucky the clown also comes to join in the fun...
And this kind of thing should be revealed sooner!
Otherwise, I shouldn't give up on Mr3's group of guys. Maybe I can make use of Mr3's group of trash, but the strength of that trash should not be of much use...
It would be fine if Bucky the Clown is willing to abide by the rules honestly, but if Bucky the Clown refuses to be honest, he will have to try to kill that guy!
but…
Is this possible?
Buggy the clown dares to kill even the Celestial Dragons, not to mention him as the king of the Shichibukai, so there will definitely be a huge conflict between the two of them!
"correct…"
"The mission you sent Mr. 2 Von Clay to clean up Mr. 3 Gal Dino and others has not been completed. I suggest that it is better not to clean up Mr. 2 because of the failure of the mission at this time..."
The woman wearing a top hat looked at Crocodile, who was getting increasingly angry, and added another word: "Mr2 brought back news that Mr3 has taken refuge with Bucky the Clown, and seems to have been protected by Bucky the Clown..."
"I'm not that stupid."
Crocodile felt agitated and muttered subconsciously: "Mr.2 Von Clay's imitation fruit is very useful. Where is Mr.1 Daz Bonis?"
Daz Bones is a powerful killer in the West Sea, and he is also a superhuman-type Quick Slash Fruit user. Crocodile's attitude towards Mr. 1 is quite good, because he thinks that the other person is a useful person who can help him deal with the Straw Hat One.
Guy's problem.
"On the way to Alabasta..."
The woman in the hat finally provided good news and bad news: "But Mr. 1 reported that the navy is also heading towards Alabasta..."
"Navy?"
Crocodile's eyes suddenly became fierce. He knew that the appearance of the navy would definitely mean trouble: "But it doesn't matter. As long as we get Pluto, I no longer need the position of King Shichibukai, and the world government will also need it."
Submit yourself under me...urge all senior cadres to gather immediately, and our Utopia battle plan must begin as soon as possible!"
Above the sea.
Crocodile would never have thought of that.
Mr. 1 Boz Danis, Mr. 2 Von Clay, and Mr. 3 Gal Dino, who was abandoned by him, were all on different pirate ships at this time.
Bucky Pirates.
Bucky and his gang originally wanted to rush to Alabasta to find the golden underground palace, but they happened to meet Mr. 3 Gal Dino who was on the run and invited him to board the ship.
originally…
Mr.3 Gal Dino wants to go back and avoid the pursuit of Baroque Works, and take the initiative to meet the boss of Baroque Works to find out who he is.
However, the appearance of Bucky the Clown made Mr. Gal Dino realize that Bucky the Clown must have some ideas when he came to Alabasta, and it might also become a place of refuge for him.
result…
This Mr3 is truly a senior agent.
After spending two or three days with the Bucky Pirates, Mr3 basically understood the Bucky Pirates from top to bottom. He felt that there might be something in the 730 million beli rewarded by Bucky the Clown...
after all…
None of the entire Bucky Pirates looks strong.
Mr3 is just a candle fruit user, but he feels that he can hang up the pirates on this pirate ship and beat them up. He plans to take this information about Bucky the Clown and go to the boss of Baroque Works to plead guilty.
This is Bucky the Clown with 730 million Baileys. The reward alone they received for capturing Bucky the Clown and giving it to the Navy was enough to offset their sins!
What's more...
Alabasta actually hides a huge golden underground palace left by the King of Alabasta eight hundred years ago. This even more shocking information will definitely replace Mr5, Miss Valentine's Day and Miss Golden Week.
life!
"..."
Mr. Gal Dino, who had a candle-like hairstyle, hid quietly in the corner, looking at Bucky and his gang who were still reveling in finding the golden underground palace in the future: "As long as this information is reported to the boss of Baroque Works,
It should be able to offset our previous failures, and everyone will definitely survive..."
the other side.
Straw Hat Pirates.
On board the Golden Merli, the Straw Hat Pirates' vehicle.
Mr2 Von Clay accidentally fell into the sea and was rescued by the Straw Hats. In return, he showed his abilities to the Straw Hats.
Imitate fruit.
Anyone whom Von Klay touches can imitate their face.
Unfortunately…
Princess Vivi of Alabasta was also on this ship. When Mr.2 Von Clay was performing, she saw him show the face of her father, King Kobra!
this means…
This guy is pretending to be a king!
After Mr. 2 Von Clay left, Weiwei immediately informed the Straw Hats about the incident, and everyone was on guard.
They were already aware of Von Clay's disguise ability and had left white cloth bands on his arms in advance to prevent others from pretending to be companions and lurking in.
The last side.
The Konoha Pirates' large ship.
This large ship was surrounded by hull fragments. They had just finished a leisurely battle like afternoon tea, and the nine-headed wooden dragon directly crushed the opponent's hull.
but…
The other party did not seem to have completely lost the ability to resist.
A resolute-looking man, his arm suddenly turned into a sharp knife, and he rushed towards the people on the deck of the Konoha Pirates!
"This is...a devil fruit user!"
Several researchers from the Konoha Pirates immediately became interested.
Although they have also captured a Devil Fruit user, and the other person was even a rare natural-type frozen fruit user, they were unable to study it due to identity issues!
"Flying Thunder God Slash!"
Senshou Tobirama appeared next to the enemy in an instant, raised his hand and cut a wound on the opponent's body as hard as iron, and blood flew out!
"This guy is Mr. 1 Boz Danis, a superhuman and quick-cutting fruit user. He is a senior cadre of Baroque Works. He can help us complete the plan faster..."
A dull voice appeared in the mouth of the Red Sand Scorpion, and he said softly: "We can leave the person on the ship for a few days to conduct experiments, and then put the person back when we arrive in Alabasta, and let him go to the Baroque Working Society as a
spy…"
"correct…"
"I have been allowed to conduct a transformation experiment using your abilities..."
The Red Sand Scorpion flew to Boz Danis's side, looking at the man they captured with dull eyes: "Do you personally have any opinion on this? Mr. 1 Mr. Boz Danis?"
