Wearing a pure black top hat, a black scarf wrapped around his neck to cover his chin, and a windbreaker, Crocodile walked into the tavern.
Looking around the tavern, Crocodile spotted Kizaru sitting in the corner and waving to him.
Crocodile walked straight over and sat opposite Kizaru.
"The design drawings are not in Bingshan's hands." As soon as he sat down, Crocodile said in a deep voice, looking at Kizaru with dissatisfaction in his eyes.
Crocodile knew that during his absence, the situation in the Kingdom of Alabasta had reversed. All his plans in the Kingdom had been abolished, and his useless subordinates had also been captured by the navy.
Therefore, Crocodile had to wonder if Kizaru told him the information about 'Pluto' in order to lure him away and plot against the Kingdom of Alabasta.
"Is the iceberg still alive?" Kizaru was very calm. He picked up the whiskey on the table, took a sip, and asked slowly.
"Alive! He is surrounded by people from the World Government." Crocodile said irritably.
If he hadn't been worried about the World Government, he would have taken tougher measures against Iceberg.
Crocodile could give up his position as the Shichibukai for "Pluto", but before actually building "Pluto", he didn't want to attract the attention of the world government.
If he is entangled by the crazy dogs of the World Government, the difficulty of building 'Pluto' will skyrocket.
"Let's go see the iceberg!" Kizaru had already guessed who had the blueprint for "Pluto". He took Crocodile to see the iceberg just to show off, lest the suspicious sandman get away from it.
The crocodile felt that Kizaru was playing tricks on him.
After saying that, Kizaru drank all the wine in his glass, then left his seat and stood up.
Putting the drink money on the table, Kizaru took Crocodile and left the tavern.
It was now morning, and Kizaru asked Crocodile to lead the way to the iceberg shipyard.
"Let's go in!" Standing in front of a small building, Kizaru said without hiding anything.
"Be careful to hide." Crocodile warned.
"Didn't you notice? They can't see us." Kizaru said with a smile.
After hearing Kizaru's words, Crocodile looked at the workers working around him and noticed something strange.
He looked at Kizaru with slight surprise, wondering what the fruit ability of Kizaru was?
It can not only turn body elements into light like Admiral Kizaru of the Navy, but also hide certain areas. What kind of fruit ability is this?
Combining the two abilities displayed by Kizaru, Crocodile speculated that it might be the rarest phantom beast fruit among Devil Fruits.
Using illusions to hide his figure, Kizaru took Crocodile into the small building and successfully arrived at Bingshan's office.
Opening the door to the office, then closing it, the two of them walked directly in. There was only Bingshan sitting behind his desk, handling things.
The door suddenly opened and then closed, causing Bingshan to stop what he was doing and look at the door.
He thought it was his secretary who came in to ask for something, but he found no one there.
Is there something wrong with the door? Or is someone coming in that you can't see?
Bingshan, who had been kidnapped and threatened by a mysterious man some time ago, instinctively became vigilant. He was already considering whether to call his workers to come in.
Bingshan pushed his chair back, stood up, and was ready to do something.
He had just stood up and put his right hand on the handle of the drawer when he saw two strange men appearing out of thin air in front of his desk.
"you....."
Bingshan looked at the two uninvited guests in surprise and uncertainty. As soon as he opened his mouth to speak, he was bewildered by some kind of power and stood there blankly.
"Where is the blueprint of 'Pluto'?" Kizaru, who was using illusion magic, asked the iceberg with a smile.
"I..." Bingshan's heart seemed to be resisting and struggling, but this resistance was nothing more than a mantis's arm acting as a chariot. Within a few breaths, he completely turned into Kizaru's puppet.
"In Franky's hands." Bingshan, who fell into dementia, replied a little stupidly.
Crocodile, who was standing next to Kizaru, looked at the strange scene in front of him and became even more afraid of Kizaru's ability.
Invisibility, hypnosis, such abilities are too dangerous.
Kizaru, has this guy ever used it on himself?
Thinking of this, Crocodile looked at Kizaru with even more vigilance.
While Crocodile was suspicious, Kizaru completed the inquiry and got the answer he wanted.
"You were too tired just now and fell asleep in the office." Kizaru finally said to Bingshan.
Bingshan sat down obediently, moved his chair forward, lay down on the desk and fell asleep.
After doing all this, Kizaru turned to look at Crocodile, "There was a small problem with the intelligence, but now it's back on track."
"I didn't doubt you." Crocodile thought one thing in his heart and said another.
"I'm really touched by your trust!" Kizaru said with a smile.
After saying that, he hid himself and Crocodile again and left the office.
After leaving the Carrera Company on the iceberg, Kizaru and the two walked towards the French family's stronghold.
The two of them were lucky. The French family, which had just held a party yesterday, were all sleeping in the stronghold.
Entering the house, Kizaru raised his hand to stop Crocodile who was about to take action directly, "Oh ho ho! There's no need to be in such a hurry."
Crocodile stopped his hand in a dignified manner and waited for Kizaru's move.
Kizaru lit a cigarette for himself and slowly walked to Franky who was still sleeping.
Although I feel sorry for Luffy, of course Kizaru will not let go of a technical talent like Franky.
He raised his hand and patted Franky's face, bent down, and looked at him with a smile.
"Are you awake?"
Franky, who was woken up by being slapped, had not yet regained consciousness and was startled by Kizaru's smiling face.
Franky's eyes met Kizaru's, and he just opened his mouth and fell directly into the illusion.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Follow me! Franky." Kizaru said.
"Yes!" Franky responded blankly, stood up, and followed Kizaru like a zombie.
Kizaru walked in front, Franky followed behind, and returned to Crocodile one after another.
Crocodile looked at Franky, who looked like a puppet, and became more and more afraid of Kizaru. What is this guy's ability? Why is it so scary?
Hidden again, Kizaru and the other two went to the hotel room where Crocodile lived without alerting anyone else.
Entering the room, Kizaru asked Franky to take out the "Pluto" design drawings from his body, a stack of old drawings, and handed them directly to Crocodile.
Kizaru's move surprised Crocodile so much that he did not take the drawing immediately.
Is this guy so confident in himself? In other words, is he so confident in his own power?
Crocodile looked directly at Kizaru and took the drawing from his hand.
Kizaru lit another cigarette for himself and waited patiently while Crocodile looked through the design drawings.
"Have you written it down?" Kizaru asked after smoking a cigarette.
Crocodile had also spent his initial excitement at this time. He didn't fully understand the professional models and data on the "Pluto" design drawings, but he only had a rough memory of them.
"What are you going to do next?" Crocodile held the "Pluto" design drawing tightly in his right hand, as if he was worried that Kizaru would hypnotize him like Bingshan and Franky.
"Let this guy draw a copy, and then we can separate." Kizaru said.
"Who gets the original picture?" Crocodile asked with concern.
"Me!" Kizaru said matter-of-factly.
"Why?" Crocodile said dissatisfied.
"Because I'm better than you!" Kizaru looked at Crocodile with a calm smile on his face.
"You!" Crocodile was very angry, but he knew that Kizaru was telling the truth.
After both parties reached an agreement, Kizaru first asked Crocodile to buy a set of tools for drawing design drawings, and then asked Franky, who was controlled by illusion, to draw a new design drawing based on the original drawing.
Two hours later, Kizaru handed the copied design drawing to Crocodile, and he held the original drawing in his hand.
"Krokdal, where are you going to build ships next? The best shipwrights on this sea are all here." Kizaru was in no hurry to leave, sitting and smoking a cigarette.
"There are people from the World Government here." Obviously, Crocodile was not prepared to stay here and build ships.
"Do you want to follow me? We have enough manpower to make 'Pluto'." Kizaru actively invited.
Of course Crocodile, who is suspicious by nature, does not trust Kizaru, and would not choose to build a ship with him.
"No need." Crocodile said coldly.
"What a pity! I hope we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future." Kizaru took a deep breath from the cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and said with a smile.
"I hope so." Crocodile said against his will.
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to leave.
Kizaru sat in his seat and watched Crocodile leave.
After he left, Kizaru lifted the illusion he had cast on Franky.
After the illusion was lifted, Franky could not recover for a while, and still looked at Kizaru blankly, until he saw the design drawing of 'Pluto' in Kizaru's hand.
In an instant, Franky recovered from the illusion, and he punched Kizaru who was sitting in his seat.
"You bastard! What did you do to Franky?" Franky yelled.
Fortunately, Kizaru was well prepared and had already set up a barrier in this room. Otherwise, the noise caused by Franky would definitely attract the attention of people outside the room.
Kizaru didn't dodge or dodge, and he didn't even transform into an element. He just let his armed domineering energy cover his body, and he took Franky's heavy punch very easily.
"What a grumpy little brother!" Kizaru said with a smile.
"Powerful hammer!" Franky launched the attack again.
Franky's heavy punch on Kizaru's body still had no effect. Kizaru sat on the chair very calmly and lit a cigarette for himself.
"I am an enemy of the World Government, do you want to talk to me?" Kizaru said to Franky after exhaling smoke.
"What did you do to me?" Frankie asked angrily.
"Well... you can understand it as mind control." Kizaru took the initiative to explain.
"You bastard! Franky is angry!" Franky became even more angry and prepared to continue attacking Kizaru.
But this time, Kizaru fought back. Before Franky could make a move, he teleported in front of Franky, then kicked him out, slamming him against the wall.
Franky, who suffered a heavy blow, slipped from the wall to the ground and sat on the ground with his legs spread out, blood flowing from his mouth.
"Oops! It seems like you used too much force. I'm so sorry!" Kizaru walked up to Frankie with a cigarette in his mouth and squatted down.
"Can we talk now?"
Franky said nothing, just glared at Kizaru.
"If I remember correctly, your teacher Tom was killed by the World Government. Do you want to avenge him?" Kizaru took out the cigarette from his mouth and looked at Franky calmly.
"You pirates! Franky..." Franky mistook Kizaru for a pirate.
"Hey, hey, hey! You bastard! Why are you swearing? I'm not a criminal like a pirate." Kizaru said dissatisfied.
Franky was stunned. He looked at Kizaru and asked blankly: "Then you are?"
"Me...a rebel? No! Well...just think of me as a foreign leader who is ready to destroy the world government." Kizaru said simply and directly.
"You are the king?" Frankie shouted in surprise.
Kizaru slapped Franky on the head and said dissatisfiedly: "I am not that backward guy! I am a leader elected by the people. You can understand it as a public servant of the people and a steward of the people."
Franky obviously couldn't understand these words, or the thoughts revealed in Kizaru's words.
"what are you talking about?"
"Okay! Let's make it simple then. I am planning to overthrow the rule of the World Government. I need the power of 'Pluto' and talents like you. I hope you will join me." Kizaru said directly.
This time, Frankie understood, and then he decisively refused.
"Asshole! Franky won't join you! Give me the design back!" Franky said excitedly.
"Really?" Kizaru touched his chin, and then continued, "Then let me put it another way, if you don't join, I will kill everyone in the Franky House. Oh, by the way, and your senior brother.
,iceberg!"
This time, Frankie was silent. He looked directly at the smiling Kizaru, thinking that this guy was a devil.
"Frankie promise you, you will let them go?" Frankie's tone was a little low, and his head lowered.
"Not only will I let you go, I can also save your senior brother." Kizaru said with a smile.
Franky raised his head suddenly and looked at Kizaru excitedly, "What do you mean?"
"The World Government has already suspected your senior brother, and the cronies around him are basically agents of the World Government." Kizaru explained.
"Those bastards!" Frankie slammed his hands on the ground.
"How about it? I'll help your senior brother solve the threat of the World Government, and you come with me." Kizaru said seductively.
"What are you going to do?" Franky asked worriedly.
"Take you away, and then announce in the newspaper that I have the design of 'Pluto'." Kizaru said.
