Kingdom of Alabasta, interior of a luxurious casino, inside a luxurious room.
Crocodile was sitting on a chair in the room, with his legs crossed, smoking a cigar, and reading the latest issue of the newspaper in his hand.
Crocodile has a slicked back hair, a long transverse scar on his face, an earring in his right ear, a gold hook in his left hand, and a black coat. At first glance, he looks like a vicious pirate.
"Gulide, the newly promoted Vice Admiral of the Navy, the destroyer of the Navy, I didn't expect that the Devil Fruit of the World Destroyer would fall into the hands of the Navy..."
When he saw the Destroyer, Crocodile's eyes were obviously focused. When he went to sea in his early years, the name of the World Destroyer had already resounded throughout the Grand Line.
Although the World Government, after Wald was imprisoned, worked very hard to eliminate Wald's influence, Wald has also faded from people's memory.
But as one of the new pirates of that era, Crocodile still had a very deep impression on Wald!
"As a result, the navy's power has been greatly enhanced..."
"Four admirals, plus a world destroyer, it seems that the pirates will be in big trouble in the future!"
Crocodile groaned, put down the newspaper in his hand, picked up the wine glass on the table, and took a sip of wine.
At this time, Robin slowly walked into the room, looked at Crocodile, and said: "Boss, Mr. 1, Mr. 2,..., they are all here, do you want to meet them?
?”
Hearing Robin's words, Crocodile took a puff of his cigar and said solemnly: "No, it's not the time to meet them yet. You can assign their tasks to them!"
"Increase the use of dancing powder and put the Kingdom of Alabasta into drought as soon as possible so that we can take the next step..."
"Yes, boss"
After hearing Crocodile's order, Robin responded.
Crocodile wanted to take advantage of the side effects of the banned "dancing powder" to plunge the Kingdom of Alabasta into a long-term drought. Then he was behind it to add fuel to the flames and put all the blame on the King of Alabasta.
Cobra.
This will cause civil strife in the Kingdom of Alabasta, and then he will appear as a national hero and gain the trust of the people of the kingdom.
The purpose of all Crocodile did was to seize the ancient weapon "Pluto" of the Kingdom of Alabasta.
Using dancing powder will form mist-like smoke that gathers in the air, promoting the growth of clouds below the freezing point in the air, thus forming rainfall.
But once Dancing Powder is used, drought will occur in neighboring countries living downwind. Crocodile used this method to plunge the Kingdom of Alabasta into drought.
...
The Grand Line, in the royal palace of the Kingdom of Alabasta.
King Kobra of the Kingdom of Alabasta was sitting on the highest throne in the kingdom's palace with a sad face.
Cobra leaned on the throne, rubbing his forehead with one hand from time to time. His usual amiable smile had long since disappeared, replaced by a sad look on his face. There had been no rainfall in the Kingdom of Alabasta for half a year.
Due to the long-term lack of rainfall, the lives of the citizens were miserable and riots began. Some people even heard rumors from unknown sources and wanted to resist the rule of the Kingdom of Alabasta.
If things continue like this, civil strife will inevitably break out in the Kingdom of Alabasta.
"King, some people among the citizens have begun to incite and organize rebels. Do we need to take action to deal with them?"
The royal guards of the Kingdom of Alabasta, Jaka and Bell, walked into the palace, looked at Kobra and said solemnly.
"Nonsense, they are all citizens of the Kingdom of Alabasta!"
After hearing what the two said, Kobra scolded.
"There is suddenly no rain in the kingdom, and some people are trying to incite the citizens to start a rebellion... This incident is obviously someone targeting our Kingdom of Alabasta."
"We must find the person behind the scenes as soon as possible in order to quell this incident!"
...
On the Grand Line, in a sea area relatively close to the island where the Kingdom of Alabasta is located, a yellow submarine suddenly surfaced.
This yellow submarine is Luo's pirate ship. There is also a set of advanced medical equipment on the submarine, and the pirate logo on the submarine is the second-generation red heart that Luo respected most when he was a child, Corazon's last
smile.
The submarine surfaced, the door opened, and Luo inside the submarine came to the deck of the submarine.
Looking at the island in the distance, Luo's eyes narrowed. His purpose in coming to the Kingdom of Alabasta this time was to take away the heart of Crocodile, one of the Seven Sea Warriors.
Now, Luo's bounty has reached 240 million beli, and his reputation has spread throughout the first half of the Grand Line. He plans to leave for the New World soon.
But before heading to the new century, Crocodile's affairs must be settled.
Luo came to the deck, and Bebo, Xia Qi and Pei Jin also came to the deck.
Not long after Luo and Beibo went to sea, they returned to Haiyan Island where they had stayed before, found Xia Qi and Peijin, and invited them to board the pirate ship.
In fact, Xia Qi and Peijin had already made an appointment with Luo before Jiang Feng took Luo away, and they wanted to go to sea together, so they agreed immediately as soon as Luo showed up.
Walking to the front of the deck, Bei Bo looked at the sea area near the pirate ship with a curious expression, then looked at Luo and said, "Luo, didn't Mr. Feng say that he would send someone over to assist us?"
"Why didn't you see them?"
"Why don't you wait for them!"
"No need to wait for them, let's go to the Kingdom of Alabasta first and find Crocodile's hiding place!"
"I think they'll be here soon!"
Luo said lightly, then looked at Xia Qi and Pei Jin behind him, "Xia Qi, Pei Jin, pull the boat to the shore, let's go to the Kingdom of Alabasta."
"As for the others, stay on board!"
"Okay, Captain!"
Sharkey and Pekin responded.
...
In the Sky Kingdom, in the palace on the main island, Jiang Feng is sitting at the desk in the room.
"Have Giatt, Blake and Cecil arrived in the Kingdom of Alabasta?"
Jiang Feng looked at the housekeeper behind him and said.
Knowing that Luo was going to attack Crocodile, Jiang Feng asked the two captains of the Sky Kingdom Guard to assist Luo. After all, Crocodile was a user with natural fruit abilities and had a Baroque Working Group under his command.
In the Sky Kingdom, the Kingdom Guard is the most powerful guard among the three guards in the Sky Kingdom. There are four detachments in total, and each detachment has two captains, one captain and one vice-captain.
There are four detachments, each with more than a hundred givers, and they are all ability users who have eaten artificial devil fruits.
Moreover, the captains of these four detachments also have the right to mobilize the 200,000 soldiers of the Sky Kingdom.
"The two captains set out two days ago and are estimated to have arrived at the Kingdom of Alabasta by now."
