One Piece Superman One Piece World

There is no point in worrying about why Crocodile and others appeared in the desert and finding them accurately.

Kuzan felt an unusual aura from these people. After so many years in the navy, there were not many pirates who could give him a sense of oppression, and there were almost no pirates in this place in the first half of the Grand Line.

Crocodile and others.
"You three, take care of yourselves."

"Ace, Sabo, Luffy is in your hands now."

Kuzan turned his head slightly and gave instructions to the three children behind him. His attention was always on Crocodile and the others, not daring to be careless.

Crocodile is a man who was able to escape unscathed from the Whitebeard Pirates. When facing such an enemy, one must be careful.

"Haha, General Aokiji."

"I think you don't need to be so nervous."

"I came here this time just to say hello to you."

"And I hope to invite you to visit me."

"Don't worry, I will treat you well."

"Speaking of which, although I am just a pirate, the World Government values ​​me and they hope that I can become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"Strictly speaking, we will still be a family in the future."

Crocodile was smiling, and just from his expression, it was impossible to imagine that he was the one who just killed Luffy and Ace.

The emotion on the surface is completely different from what he is actually doing.

"Seven Wuhai"

Hearing a familiar name from Crocodile's mouth, Kuzan's face also showed a solemn expression. Kuzan had never received any news about Crocodile becoming a Shichibukai. If this news is true, then the attitude of the Navy Headquarters towards Crocodile needs to be considered.

Kuzan didn't know what kind of agreement Tsugikoku Yoriichi had reached with the World Government. From the day Yoriichi ascended to the position of Admiral of the Navy, the entire Navy Headquarters was shrouded in a fog.

Kuzan knew very little about what happened on the Origin Island. In his mind, Yoriichi Tsugakuni, who was able to become the Admiral of the Navy, must have been recognized by the World Government, otherwise Marshal Sengoku, Sakaski and other high-level officials would not support Yoriichi Tsugakuni like they do now.

All I can say is that the reality is far more outrageous than he expected.

The only reason why Tsugikuni Yoshiichi was able to reach the position of Navy Admiral was because various forces had their own calculations.

This is the inevitable result of the balance of the situation, not that the World Government recognizes Yoriichi Tsugikoku.

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"I've never heard of anything like this."

"Besides, even if you are one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, there are certain bottom lines that you absolutely cannot cross."

"For example, the royal families of the member countries of the World Government!"

"Crocodile, if you have anything to say, let's go to Judicial Island and talk!"

Although Kuzan had some concerns, he was not a rigid person. Since he met Crocodile in the desert, he would not miss the opportunity to arrest him.

The Scorching Dead Sea is deserted and uninhabited, and fighting in such a place can possibly prevent one's fruit abilities from affecting ordinary people.

As he spoke, Kuzan spread out his hands, and several ice cones condensed in front of him, shooting directly towards Crocodile and others.

"Hey!"

"Did you just do it like that?"

"He's an admiral of the navy, but he doesn't take the World Government seriously at all?"

Crocodile actually didn't want to go to war with Kuzan, and the previous attack was just a "test".

If Kuzan can't even protect the children around him and let them be killed, then it means that Kuzan's strength is just that. If the opponent is weak, Crocodile will not say anything nonsense and will directly join forces with several subordinates to completely leave Kuzan in this desert.

If the opponent is strong, Crocodile will bring up the names of the World Government and the Seven Warlords of the Sea to intimidate the opponent and avoid the battle as much as possible.

Although he did not agree to become a Shichibukai directly from the Five Elders, this did not prevent him from using the names of the World Government and the Shichibukai to intimidate Kuzan.

However, to his surprise, the titles of the World Government and the Seven Warlords of the Sea seemed to have no effect on Kuzan, the admiral of the navy.

Crocodile also heard that Yoriichi Tsugakuni, who had some conflicts with the World Government, had successfully ascended to the position of Admiral of the Navy, but he did not expect that the relationship between the World Government and the Navy Headquarters had deteriorated to this extent.

The title of Seven Warlords of the Sea, which is widely known throughout the world, does not seem to be taken seriously by the Marine Headquarters.

Crocodile's mind was full of thoughts as he quickly analyzed the various information he had currently. His hands were also moving at no slow pace. Facing Kuzan's attack, Crocodile raised his golden hook slightly, and a wall of sand rose from the ground, blocking the few people.

The ice spear pierced into the thick killing wall, and after advancing several meters, it completely lost its power and was nailed to the wall without moving.

"Ow—"

A strange cry sounded from behind the sand wall, and the strangely dressed MR.2 Von Clay took off directly, flew over the sand wall at a high speed, and rushed towards Kuzan.

Kuzan raised his head slightly, and an ice sword condensed in his hand.

"Ichiku--" Fengkelei rushed in front of Kuzan, let out a low roar, and kicked directly at Kuzan's chest.

A powerful kick hit the sword, but Kuzan simply held the sword horizontally and easily blocked the opponent's attack. Feng Clay was very strong, but compared with Kuzan, he was still dwarfed.

A thin layer of frost passed through the sword and stained the soles of Fengkelei's shoes.

As a piercing chill came from the soles of his feet, Feng Clay suddenly felt something was wrong. He turned over and retreated, instantly putting some distance between himself and Kuzan.

Kuzan had no intention of leaving his place to chase his opponent. He still stood in front of Luffy and others, protecting the children behind him.

Compared to knocking down the enemy, protecting the children behind him is the most important thing in Kuzan's mind.

"Gurgrrrrrrrr-"

An inexplicable sound of flowing water came from behind the sand wall. Kuzan glanced sideways into the distance and found that the flowing white wax was rushing towards them at a rapid speed like a surging river.

"?!" "What is this? Nature?"

When Kuzan saw this form of attack, he immediately became alert. Without any hesitation, he stretched out his hands. Two icicles emerged from his palms and in the blink of an eye they touched the white wax that was surging like a river.

At the moment when the icicle touched the ash, the light blue ice instantly froze the ash. The ice spread towards the source of the ash. However, when it spread to the direction of the sand wall, two sand blades emerged directly from the ground and cut off the ash river, making it impossible for Kuzan's ability to affect the person who released the ash.

A young shemale with excellent kicking skills, a user of the Sand-Sand Fruit, a strange user of the Nature-type Fruit, and a bald strong man who has not taken any action yet.

The configuration of Crocodile and his men more or less surprised Kuzan.

It was hard to imagine that he could see such a pirate group configuration in the first half of the Grand Line. Being able to develop such an underground force in the huge Alabasta Kingdom, the strength of Crocodile and others was in line with what they did.

"Wow—"

The sand wall standing in front of Crocodile and others fell back to the ground. A few simple rounds of attacks gave Crocodile a preliminary understanding of Kuzan's strength.

"MR1, MR2, I'll leave those three little brats to you."

"MR3 cooperate with me."

Facing Aokiji, Crocodile did not show any intention of being arrogant. He would not be stupid enough to play a one-on-one duel with Kuzan.

Crocodile is a man who will do anything to achieve his goals. As long as he can kill Whitebeard, he can launch a sneak attack when Whitebeard is seriously injured; similarly, as long as he can establish his ideal military state, he can even openly serve Buggy as his leader.

Now, as long as he could keep Kuzan here completely, he didn't mind joining forces with his subordinates, nor did he mind creating opportunities for himself by attacking those children.

MR1 Daz Bonis is a silent man. He is the user of the superhuman Quick-Slash Fruit and one of Crookedal's most trusted people. Naturally, Daz Bonis obeys the orders of his boss without hesitation.

But MR2 is a little different:

"Ah?! Let me attack a child?"

Hearing Crocodile's order to attack the child, Feng Clay couldn't help but let out a low cry. Although he was a pirate, he still had some kindness in his heart.

If he were asked to attack a navy like Kuzan, he might be afraid of the opponent's strength, but after a brief hesitation, he would still be able to attack the opponent without any psychological burden.

However, he still felt an inexplicable pressure to take action against the child Fengkelei.

"Um?!"

Sensing Fengkeli's reluctance, Crocodile's face darkened, he uttered a light sound of doubt, and glared at Fengkeli fiercely.

Seeing his boss's expression, Feng Clay couldn't help but twitch his eyes and nodded reluctantly.

Seeing that his opponent had given in, Crocodile stopped talking. His lower body turned into a sandstorm and he soared into the air, shooting directly towards Kuzan. As he got closer to him, Crocodile's golden hook hooked towards the artery on Kuzan's neck.

Although he is a natural-type devil fruit user, Crocodile's attacks seem a bit plain and simple.

Kuzan swung the ice sword in his hand, and as the two men's weapons intertwined, a crisp golden sound rang out in the desert.

At the same time that Crocodile made his move, untimely "snowflakes" began to float in the sky. Kuzan had no time to pay attention to the abnormal weather at this moment, and two black shadows had already leaped past him.

Taking advantage of the fact that Kuzan was delayed by Crocodile, Feng Clay and Daz Bonis attacked the two children, Ace and Sabo.

Daz Bonis had a clear goal, and his target was Ace who was carrying a long knife. Among these children, only Ace was carrying a knife, so he should have a certain ability to fight back. Because of this, Ace became his priority target.

As for Fengkelei, he chose the older Sabo. Although Sabo did not carry weapons like a long sword, he carried a crooked steel stick on his back.

Although I don't understand why such a thing can be used as a weapon, Sabo is still a greater threat than Luffy.

"Hey!"

Crocodile showed a happy expression on his face when his subordinates took action. He stared at Kuzan in front of him, waiting for him to reveal a flaw.

But
The two children behind him were attacked by pirates, but Kuzan's face did not show any worry at all, and Kuzan's calm expression also made Crocodile's smile freeze.

Why aren't you worried at all?
Such doubts only flashed through Crocodile's mind for a moment, because in the next second, Ace and Sabo had already given the answer.

"fire punch!!!"

Ace, who was attacked by Daz Bonis, jumped back nimbly and moved away from the spot, easily avoiding the opponent's attack. The next second after his feet stepped back on the sand, Ace swung his fist at the enemy several meters away.

As Ace punched in the air, the vortex of flames swept towards Daz Bonis who was not far away. Daz Bonis, the user of the Zan-Zan Fruit, had no time to dodge. He only had time to cross his hands to block in front of his eyes, and his body was deeply trapped in the vortex of flames.

A blazing fire lit up in the desert, and the noise of the vortex of fire even attracted Crocodile's attention.

"?!"

Before he could check the situation on Daz Bonis's side, thunder exploded on the other side.

Feng Clay, who was attacking Sabo, only felt a flash of lightning before his eyes, and Sabo's thin body suddenly disappeared in front of his eyes. When he reacted, he felt his eardrums pierced by the thunder. At the same time as the severe pain and strong dizziness came, the soles of Sabo's shoes appeared in front of him.

"Bang!!!"

A solid flying kick hit him right in the face, and Von Clay flew into the air. He was kicked out by Sabo, and after flying for more than ten meters, Von Clay's head hit the sand.

The sudden change happened so quickly that no one expected the result of attacking Ace and Sabo would be like this.

MR3 in the distance raised his hands to the sky, carefully preparing his abilities. Suddenly, he noticed the changes on the battlefield and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

"Don't underestimate them just because they are children."

"They are the next generation that the Navy Headquarters has placed all its hopes on. They are the elite!"

"At the same time, he is my strong support and my comrade-in-arms!"

Everything that happens on the battlefield is under Kuzan's control. Although Ace and Sabo are young, the combat power they possess is not something that ordinary pirates can deal with.

Maybe Crocodile's men are very strong, but his comrades-in-arms Kuzan should not be underestimated either!
"."

Crocodile's face was gloomy, and his eyes fell back on Kuzan. The golden hook suddenly pulled back, and Crocodile quickly retreated and left, putting some distance between him and Kuzan.
