Great Pirate Crocodile

Chapter 271 Raleigh's Sudden Invitation

In the Arctic Ocean, there are still as many ice floes as ever.From time to time, huge icebergs float by on the sea.But at this moment, there is a special steel-wrapped submarine that paddles across the bottom of the sea and sneaks forward.

The people on the special submarine were the Crocodile group who had returned from the Forbidden Island, and this was not Crocodile's territory in the New World.

The reason for changing the course halfway and entering here is entirely because of an invitation letter received by Crocodile.And the inviter, signed Sirbazz Raleigh! !As for who Rayleigh is, naturally needless to say, the former right hand of the One Piece King and the vice-captain of the Gore Pirates is enough to make an era remember him.

What puzzled Crocodile was the meaning of the invitation letter sent to him through the secret phone bug.In the end, Crocodile finally changed the route to the old nest in the New World, and instead followed the guidance to come to this frozen sea area.

"It's here! Let's go up!!..."

Without too much nonsense, since Crocodile chose to be invited to go here, he has no intention of changing his mind and turning back.

The special steel submarine, relying on the thick steel armor on the outside, slammed into the scattered iceberg debris floating on the water surface. With a sound of "poof", the waves flowed everywhere, and the ship surfaced with the sound...

"Kats!" The steel valve opened the valve amidst a sound of mechanical deflation.And Crocodile also came outside, saw the invitation, and agreed on the place where the two parties would meet.

On a long frozen Icelandic island in the frozen seas of Ingijren...

"It's so cold..." Dempsey rubbed his hands subconsciously, trying to gain some warmth.But the low temperature took away the insufficient temperature created by rubbing hands in an instant.For a while, Dempsey could only tighten his clothes.

On the other hand, Crocodile didn't have any special feelings. His special devil fruit ability user physique, coupled with the influence of blood, made him not sensitive to cold and heat.

Of course, Dempsey and the others just felt cold.The strong who have reached their stage will not really become vulnerable because of such a little cold.

In fact, Dempsey was more teasing, after all, long-distance travel is boring for everyone.Crocodile didn't care about this either, he wanted to know what Rayleigh, the guy who invited him here, wanted to do.

There are some mentions in the content of the invitation letter.But it didn't reveal too much, and these things that were not expressed in the letter were actually the main reason why Crocodile was most concerned and even changed his mind to come here.

"Then, what are you trying to tell me, Raleigh!?..." Crocodile's perception was not bad, and he soon discovered an unusual white bear doing human movements.

Looking at the humanized movements of the white bear, it is obvious that he is signaling Crocodile and his party to follow it and walk inside. "Let's go! Follow that guy..."

Although the white bear is very fat, but the speed is not covered, it runs very fast.However, Crocodile and his party were not ordinary people after all. They followed the running white bear firmly at a walking pace.

Soon, following the footsteps of the white bear.Crocodile and his party came to an iceberg.Under the white snow, that touch of deep black should be a place like a cave.

But Crocodile did not move forward, because not far from the cave, there was a swordsman sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, carrying a huge cross sword on his back.

It's not that Crocodile has never seen Rayleigh, the swordsman in front of him seems to cut everything apart once he draws his sword out of the scabbard.It's definitely not Rayleigh, who has restrained all his edge, Crocodile can still confirm this.

Among the world's great swordsmen, Crocodile can only think of one person who can possess such aura...Hawkeye Mihawk! !
"Hawkeye! Why is this guy here too... Where's Rayleigh?"

In doubt, Crocodile chose to move on.And Hawkeye also opened his eyes, looking at Crocodile who kept walking in with an expression on his face.It seemed that he wanted to draw his sword, as he usually did when he met those powerful men who were worthy of a shot, and competed against each other.

However, after all, he was apprehensive, and the hand behind his back stopped.Until Crocodile walked up to Hawkeye and looked at the pair of eagle-like vertical eyes.

It wasn't until Hawkeye realized it, but the atmosphere also froze at this moment, even if Hawkeye wanted to go down the steps, he couldn't say anything.

"So, where is Rayleigh? Did he die? Also, as Shichibukai, what are you doing here!?..." Crocodile didn't have so many scruples, and he still had something to ask.

"I don't die so easily!? Little crocodile..." Leili finally appeared, and three people walked out of the cave entrance, and the leader who spoke was the right person of the invitation, Sirbazz Leili.

"It's finally here! Rayleigh... Uh, this is!!? Humph, this is interesting!!..."

Before he finished speaking halfway, Crocodile discovered that the other two who showed up with Lei Li were also old acquaintances, and their relationship with Crocodile was quite complicated...

"The former Four Emperors. The red-haired Shanks... Also, the former Whitebeard Pirates, the captain of the first battle team, the phoenix Margo!!"

All of a sudden, everyone is here! !And Crocodile also realized that this damn old man probably plotted against him! !This meeting was not at all a meeting with Rayleigh alone.

Instead, he directly met a group of people who were once the most powerful force in this world.If Rayleigh, the king of the underworld, represents the will left over from the previous era.Then, the red-haired people represent the strongest group of people in the world.

However, Hawkeye, who was born in Shichibukai under the king, is also hostile to Crocodile in a sense.And the remnants of Whitebeard, not to mention, they must also be dissatisfied with Crocodile's behavior of pushing the fire.

So Hawkeye Mihawk, Phoenix Margo, and the redhead who was defeated in the new world, what did these three people see themselves for! ?

At this moment, Crocodile had overturned all the speculations about Rayleigh and his meeting this time.All the doubts came to my mind, and Crocodile frowned slightly.

Smiling softly, Crocodile didn't intend to talk to them, but directly sarcastically said: "Such a big battle!! What do you want to do!? Could it be that he came to talk to me about life!!..."

"Or let's fight!..."

In the arena, the smell of gunpowder suddenly became extremely strong.

To be continued...
