The Great Swordsman of One Piece

Chapter 393 Conspiracy looms
Alabasta, rainy land.

In fact, Yudi is just a place name.This is where Crocodile resides.In fact, it is no different from ordinary desert areas.

At least Luffy was surprised when they got here that this place was called Rainland.In their eyes, the difference between this place and the desert places they encountered along the way was not too great.

On their desert voyages to the Rainlands, they had come across small camps inhabited by some of the king's army.

But at that time, Luffy's supplies were not exhausted, and Luffy was eager to take risks, so they didn't pay attention to those places.They rushed directly to the rainy land.

Fortunately, the locations of these cities haven't changed much over the years.Only then could they successfully reach the rainy land under the leadership of Robin.

In fact, Robin was also surprised by the current situation of Yudi.She hasn't been to Alabasta in these years, but Yudi is Crocodile's territory!
Crocodile's site environment is much worse than it was more than ten years ago. It used to be a great oasis.

But now, the small lake here has dried up.Even if it is more prosperous than other towns, it is not much more prosperous here.

This is the most prosperous place in Alabasta!This is the pearl in the desert that attracts the rich and powerful in the past!
"Crocodile must have a conspiracy." This idea appeared in Robin's mind.However, she still couldn't figure out what Crocodile was planning for the time being.

In the middle of the rainy land, in the largest casino.Crocodile is sitting behind his desk.He quietly listened to his subordinates' reports.

The content of the report is very simple, that is, a pirate group without the slightest bounty entered the rainy land.entered his territory.

Moreover, there is a person they are very familiar with in this pirate group, their former accomplice, Robin.

After the subordinate who reported the situation withdrew, Crocodile took off the cigar from the corner of his mouth, pressed it into the ashtray, and extinguished it.

"Go and get rid of them. Mr. 1. By the way, remember to save Miss all Sunday's life."

Behind Crocodile, a tall bald man turned and left without saying a word, and walked out through the side door of the office.

"Aren't you under the shelter of Bucky the Clown? Why did you join another pirate group? And you even came here. What do you want to do..."

In the office, Crocodile, who was smoking a cigar again, narrowed his eyes slightly. He looked at the door frame, his eyes flickering...

Alabasta, this country has a navy stationed there.The king allocated a small piece of land in the country to the navy to build a base.

This base was built on the banks of the St. Dora River, not too far from Albana, the capital of the kingdom.It's not too far from the rainy land either.

When the navy planned to establish a naval base in Alabasta, the naval captain who came to station there took a fancy to this place at a glance.

In fact, the Navy was quite surprised at the time.Crocodile did not obstruct the establishment of this naval base in the slightest.

One must know that Don Quixote Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai who is now the king in Dressrosa, is extremely repulsed to establish a naval base within the scope of his power!

Not only Doflamingo, but Moonlight Moria, Boya Hancock, and Murloc Jinbe, who have their own sphere of strength, are very repulsed by the establishment of naval bases within their sphere of influence.

Only Crocodile does not reject this matter.He didn't do anything about the navy's establishment of a naval base here, and he didn't say anything to the leaders of the navy.

In fact, the entire territory of Alabasta, including the rainland belonging to Crocodile, has been more or less plagued by drought in the past five years.

Fortunately, there is a seawater desalination device developed by a person named Carpenter, so the lives of the residents of Alabasta have not been greatly affected.

It is worth mentioning that the naval station also has Alabasta's seawater desalination plant.And the rainfall around the naval station has indeed been a little bit more than other places in recent years.

Although it is also plagued by drought, the drought here is indeed lighter.

On this day, a warship and a supply ship appeared in the navy's port together.This is an unfamiliar warship, at least the garrison here is seeing it for the first time.

"I heard that this is the warship of Captain Smoker, who was stationed in Rogge Town before. He came here to catch a bunch of pirates, but I don't know if his arrival will affect our plan..."

"Captain Kudrow, what did you just say?" a navy soldier said behind the port garrison who was talking to himself.

"Ah... ah, it's nothing. I'm a little curious, why this officer left his post again. Hahahaha!" Captain Kudrow, who was talking to himself just now, laughed a little embarrassedly.

"Oh, this one. Colonel Smoker got through with the Navy Headquarters before leaving Rogue Town this time!"

The soldiers behind Kudrow gave him a brief explanation of Smoker's arrival and departure from Rogue Town.

"I heard that he came here chasing a pirate group that didn't even have a bounty! I really don't know how this colonel, who is a natural fruit ability user, can catch even a pirate group that doesn't have a bounty. Can't stop!"

"He is from the natural department!" Kudrow suddenly exclaimed.

Then he saw the surprised look on the soldier's face behind him.It is well known in the Navy that Captain Smoker, the thorny head of the navy, is a matter of the natural department?
"Ah... ah, I... I mean...the hunted pirate group may also have a natural ability user, in this case, Colonel Smoker's advantage is not obvious. "

Kudrow touched his nose in embarrassment, rolled his eyes and spoke to explain his exclamation just now.

"Ah, if this is the case, then the danger of this pirate group must be reconsidered..."

The navy soldier said something with some hesitation. "Captain, would you like to contact Colonel Tina and ask him to pay attention to that pirate group?"

"That's not good... After all, Colonel Smoker led people to hunt down that pirate group, so it's inappropriate for us to intervene!"

As Kudrow spoke, he went over and patted the soldier on the shoulder. "Don't worry, soldier. If Colonel Smoker can't handle it, he will go back to Colonel Tina for help. Don't worry about it."

After saying that, Kudrow turned around and was about to leave here.Anyway, he still has to go to other places in the port to inspect, even if he is not here, it doesn't matter.

"Strange, I remember that Captain Kudrow used to like to find reasons to go to Colonel Tina? Why don't you go to such a good reason now?"

Not far away, Kudrow, who happened to hear the voice of the navy soldier because he was walking unhurriedly, had a slightly cold look in his eyes.

He paused, then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened...
