This pirate is not too cold

Chapter 218 Seven Defeated Sand Crocodiles (two in one chapter)

Although he was kicked away by Karl, Crocodile did not show an overly embarrassed attitude this time, unlike when he was in the grove on Lust Island.

"Armed domineering?"

Feeling the pure energy fluctuations from Crocodile, Karl was also a little surprised.

"Guhahaha...I can't keep standing still with my strength!"

Three years on, and it looks like this vicious sand crocodile is not wasting his time any longer.

Karl guessed right, Crocodile has mastered the armed domineering color.

He once challenged "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate, and became the King Shichibukai in his early 20s. As a big pirate who became famous in his early years, Crocodile definitely has enough insight.

However, since becoming the king of Qiwuhai, this guy has settled down, and spent most of his time in this desert kingdom, becoming that so-called "Mr. Crocodile".

His overall ability has almost stayed at the level of that year.

In fact, both Crocodile and Doflamingo were heroes of the same era. In that era, the two of them existed at the same level.

In the early years, Crocodile left a deep impression on Doflamingo, so that "Ten Yasha" repeatedly invited Crocodile to become his partner.

According to the original timeline, Doflamingo took the initiative to threaten the world government and became the king of the Seven Martial Seas next year (1512 in the lunar calendar) by virtue of the "heavenly gold" that robbed the Tianlong people.

However, Crocodile became King Shichibukai early on and lived a comfortable life.

Doflamingo has been wandering in this sea for more than ten years than Crocodile, which caused a huge gap in strength between the two of them.

Similarly, in the original history, Luo once said to Doflamingo that years of living as a king had made this "Ten Yaksha" lax in cultivation, and his strength had not reached the height it should have been.

And the star "Charlotte Cracker" of the BIGMOM Pirates has always been a desperado, and his strength is naturally a little higher than that of Doflamingo.

Otherwise, with Doflamingo's aptitude, he may not be as good as Charlotte Katakuri, but he should be better than Cracker anyway.

Since Crocodile was hanged and beaten by Karl in the West Sea, this former hero also learned from the pain, and once again worked hard to exercise his abilities.

It's a pity that he only has the "Sandsha Fruit" that can be developed, but the five ghosts and gods that Karl possesses are equivalent to five devil fruit abilities.

The middle-aged Crocodile naturally couldn't grow faster than the young Karl.

Even though he has mastered the armed domineering, he is still not Karl's opponent.

"But Lao Sha, you have to understand that there are also strengths and weaknesses in the armed color domineering!"

Karl's feet suddenly accelerated, and his figure suddenly flickered to Crocodile's side, and the shadows of his fists overlapped, hitting the part of Crocodile's body protected by armed domineering like a gust of wind and rain.

Bang, bang, bang, bang, the sound of critical strikes continued like thunder.

Crocodile had no power to fight back, so he could only grit his teeth and persist.

Suddenly, with a muffled snort, Crocodile blasted from mid-air to the sand on the ground like a meteor falling from the sky.

At the moment of contact with the ground, Crocodile's figure instantly melted into the desert and disappeared.

"Old Sha, don't hide, I'm not here to kill you!"

Karl landed on a lone peak, his voice as loud as a bell.

"Little devil, I have to admit that you are very powerful, but with this strength alone, let alone subverting the world government, you don't even have the qualifications to stand at the top of this sea!"

Crocodile appeared, turned into a wisp of wind and sand and floated towards a sandy lone mountain opposite Karl.

"I can hit you!"

"Hehe, I, Crocodile, have never served anyone! The Desert Sword!"

Crocodile roared angrily, and the huge arc-shaped sand blade turned into an extremely sharp desert sword, and quickly slashed towards the direction where Karl was standing.

This time Karl didn't dodge or dodge, he just pulled out the Broken Soul from his waist, held his breath, and slammed down towards Crocodile on the opposite side.

Ghost Slashing Moon!

boom!
The huge dark purple sword aura collided with the silver-brown desert sword in mid-air. In a short moment, the desert sword was cut into pieces of sand by the dark purple sword aura, and fell to the ground densely like raindrops.

Even the lone peak where Crocodile was located was cut into two by the huge dark purple sword energy, and fell to the ground rumblingly!

"Damn brat..."

Crocodile floated in mid-air, gnashing his teeth.

In terms of physical skills, he is no match for this Karl.

Compared with slashing, it was defeated by the opponent with one move.

Is he getting weaker or the other party is too strong?
Why is there such a result? !

This is the desert!
"sandstorm!"

A small whirlwind was slowly formed in Crocodile's hands. With a wave of Crocodile's big hand, this whirlwind formed a terrifying sandstorm in an instant that could blow down buildings and even crush rocks!

Elbaf's Spear Weiguo!

The pure spiral wind blade shot out from the broken soul, easily smashing Crocodile's sandstorm to pieces.

"Heavy Sandstorm!"

Crocodile gritted his teeth, his body retreated again and again, frantically stimulating the ability of the devil fruit, creating an even more violent and huge desert storm!

"I have plenty of time today, I can have fun with you!"

Karl retracted the broken soul into the scabbard, and he rushed directly into the growing desert storm.

Saya of Frost: Everything Freezes!
Even the air and time seem to be frozen for a second at this moment.

The ability of Saya of Frost is not only to lower the temperature within a certain range, but also to produce solid ice like Aokiji's "Frozen Fruit"!

In this short second, the entire sandstorm was wrapped in a huge ice wall, as if every grain of sand was stained with a trace of ice crystals, and could no longer spin and jump with the whirlwind.

"This is impossible?!"

Crocodile's eyes widened.

He remembered clearly, isn't this ability the frozen fruit ability of the new Admiral "Aokiji" Kuzan of the Navy Headquarters?Why does this Karl have the same ability?

"Nothing is impossible, it's just that you haven't met it before!"

With a thought in Karl's mind, there was a crisp sound of "crash", and the huge ice wall instantly turned into ice crystals all over the sky, floating freely.

Countless ice crystals as small as grains of sand were turned into water droplets or even directly evaporated by the scorching sun in the desert in mid-air.

At this moment, a strange area seemed to appear in the desert. In an area near the two of them, it was actually raining under the scorching sun!

Carl was unhurried, bathed in the icy rain, and said: "You have lost to me four times, and counting the one in Xihai, it has been five times in total. Do you want to continue?"

Carl fell to the ground.

Crocodile also fell to the ground.

The two stood facing each other, and the wild wind and sand in the desert made Karl's windbreaker and Crocodile's cloak rattle, and also made Karl narrow his eyes slightly.

Crocodile has the ability of "Sandsha Fruit", as long as he pays attention, he will not sweat.

The wind and sand in the desert will not affect the cold sight of this sand crocodile.

But he also squinted his eyes, because he was looking for an opening in Carl's opening.

For a long time, it seemed as if sand and dust had been blown into Karl's eyes.

Karl stretched out his right hand and rubbed his eyes, but Crocodile's eyes lit up.

Crocodile didn't say a word, his arm turned into a sand blade and suddenly flung to the ground.

In the desert, as if there was a pre-established passageway, the sand blade formed by Crocodile's arm quietly rushed behind Karl along a strange path, and suddenly jumped from the ground at an extremely fast speed. Gushing out, it cut off Karl's figure in a snap.

Desert sword!

"Success?!"

Seeing that the sharp sand blade successfully split Karl's body in two, Crocodile's face flashed with joy.

But soon, he realized that something was wrong.

Known as the "sand crocodile", Crocodile naturally has a keen intuition like a crocodile. It is this intuition that tells him that Karl has not been hurt by the desert sword at all!

Sure enough, in the next second Karl launched a ghost walk and rushed to Crocodile.

"Are you still a natural devil fruit ability user?"

"No, I'm a psychic!" Carl's pupils shrank suddenly.

Crocodile felt as if his brain had been gouged out suddenly with a knife.

The unbearable pain of ordinary people is stimulating the brain of the king Shichibukai at this time. The "sand crocodile" who has never cried out in pain can no longer control his behavior at this moment. yelled out.

"You don't have any moves anymore, do you? No matter how the remaining abilities of Shasha Fruit change, they can't break away from the same routine in the end."

Karl doesn't think that Crocodile can develop "Sandsha Fruit" into the flexible and changeable abilities of "Sandstorm" Gaara in the Naruto world within this period of time.

The substances produced by the natural devil fruit can actually be controlled. The ice weapon produced by the "frozen fruit" ability user Aokiji and the glutinous ball fist produced by the "waxy fruit" ability user Charlotte Katakuri It's all controllable. ①
But Crocodile must not have thought of this, and Carl can give him some advice in the future.

"You kid, what kind of devil fruit ability is that?"

It didn't take long for Crocodile to return to his normal mental state.

Being able to use the freezing ability, as well as mental attacks, the key is to be able to turn into elements... No, is it elementalization or just a mental illusion?
Crocodile's brain was spinning rapidly.

But no matter how he recalled the information collected by the Baroque Work Agency, he couldn't think of any devil fruit that could give people the ability to freeze and attack mentally at the same time.

The eyeliner in the navy once said that Carl is a "ghost fruit" capable person, but no one has ever heard of that "ghost fruit".

Sometimes complete ignorance is not the worst thing, but the most terrible thing is half-knowledge!
Karl asked instead: "Then you have to ask yourself, what kind of devil fruit is the ability in your heart to subvert the world government."

"Guhahaha... What kind of devil fruit ability can subvert the world government?" Crocodile sneered, "I don't think there is a way to subvert the world government no matter what devil fruit ability it is!"

He pulled out the outer casing of his golden hook with a "bass", revealing the highly poisonous scorpion needle inside.

"You'd better kill me now. If you insist on continuing to play with me like this, be careful that you will take your own life if you are not careful!"

Crocodile is a ruthless man who will not back down even in the face of Whitebeard, but Karl doesn't know whether he is stupid or has a special relationship with Whitebeard.

Although Karl has awakened the ability of "Rakshasa of the Plague", he will not just let Crocodile stab him so casually.

On the contrary, as early as the short time when Crocodile's consciousness was crushed by the shock of the mind, a little ghost with purple fluorescence had already clung to Crocodile's back.

It wasn't until Karl's mind moved that the ability of Rakshasa of the plague began to take effect.

"Uh...why..." Crocodile felt his eyes suddenly go dark, as if the brain was in a trance when it lacked oxygen.

His vision became blurred, his legs were weak, and he fell to the ground with a plop.

"Look, when it comes to playing drugs, you've lost again."

Karl withdrew the ability of Rakshasa of the Plague, and Crocodile's eyes gradually returned to clarity.

Crocodile felt as if he was going to die just now.

I was dizzy, I couldn't exert any strength, and my body even felt swollen.

If the "spiritual ability" he just mentioned is attacking the brain consciousness, then what kind of ability is this attacking the body?

Crocodile hasn't felt this deep sense of powerlessness for a long time.

What he was facing at this time was obviously just a brat, but he felt as if he was facing that "white beard", and he had no chance of winning at all.

"Why did you choose me to cooperate with you? I don't think you and I can trust each other." Crocodile has given up resistance.

This Karl not only understands a special ancient script, but also possesses all kinds of strange abilities... Maybe he can really subvert the world?
"Trust is not something that should be discussed between you and me, what you and I should focus on is interests!"

"Benefit?"

Karl nodded and explained: "You can help me distract the world government, and once I affect the structure of this world, it will definitely help your goals, so you and I just have different opinions. That's all it takes."

"Guhahahaha... I like what you said!" Crocodile laughed and said, "Then let's say, we have reached a fragile cooperative relationship! But before that, I have to first Go do something else!"

Note ①: Nuo Nuo Guo, Oda's initial setting was "natural type", and later changed to "special superhuman type", but this is not important, there is still Aokiji!
