The blue phantom of the pirate king

Yuba was once the largest oasis in Alabasta and one of the most prosperous oases.

However, the drought that started three years ago gradually took away the popularity of this oasis.

Now, when the Straw Hats arrived in the afternoon, they found that the place was almost covered with yellow sand.

Abandoned houses and crumbling trees all indicate that this oasis is gradually heading for the same fate as Elmaru.

"how come!?"

Seeing this situation, Weiwei was a little stunned.

This is Yuba! ?

I remember correctly?

Vivi wanted to deny this fact, but her memory told her that this was Yuba.

"This is too desolate! How is it different from Elmaru?"

Looking at the desolate scene in front of him, Sauron said with emotion.

"Wei Wei said this is an oasis..."

Sanji looked around and found no figures, and there were not many traces of people's activities, he said to himself.

Obviously, this is another oasis that has lost its vitality.

Although the previous Elmaru had made him aware of the difficult situation of this country, this once largest oasis made him realize the depth of the country's suffering.

Turning around to look a few times, Harut didn't find anyone.

(Where's that old man...?)

Although his memory was a little fuzzy, he still remembered that Yuba had an old man who knew Weiwei.

(Is it because I came early?)

Harut guessed that after switching to the fire-powered cart, the time for the Straw Hats to reach Yuba was definitely much faster than before.

Squeak!

At this time, a door suddenly made a sound, and then a thin old man came out with a shovel.

This skinny old man has rough hands and a face like tree bark. He looks like a weather-beaten person.

Seeing people outside and a lot of things on the cart, the skinny old man was a little surprised and said: "Could it be that you are desert travelers?"

"You must be very tired all the way here, don't look at Yuba's appearance, but there is also an advantage, you can choose a room to rest at will."

The skinny old man was enthusiastic and authentic. Obviously, he was quite happy that there were still people in this city.

random! ?

Upon hearing this, anyone with a little brain in the Straw Hats can understand that the houses here are all abandoned.

"Really!?"

However, there was obviously one thing that he didn't understand, and the captain was surprised.

"..."

Hearing this, Harut silently mourned for the captain's anxious brain for three seconds.

Seeing that the skinny old man's gaze was about to shift to her, Weiwei quickly turned her face to the side, covering half of her face with a veil.

She is quite a well-known figure in this country, so she cannot easily reveal her identity.

At the same time, Weiwei gestured to Harut with her eyes.

In the Straw Hat Pirates, Harut is a rare "normal person" in Vivi's eyes.

"cough!"

Although Harut already knew the result, he still pretended to be serious and asked: "Old man, are the rebels still here?"

"Rebel Army!"

Upon hearing this, the old man, who was originally quite kind, changed his face and roared angrily, "Get lost! There is no rebel army here! Could it be that you are also the guy who wants to join the rebel army!"

At this time, the old man picked up the broken bucket not far away with the strength he didn't know where he came from, and threw it at Harut.

In his eyes, these are "bad boys" attracted by the name of the rebel army.

Bang!

Although the old man shot very suddenly, this was a piece of cake for Harut, who caught the bucket with two fingers on his right hand.

"Old man, why did you throw the bucket over all of a sudden!"

Luffy was very surprised. With his EQ, it was almost impossible to see that the skinny old man was angry because he suspected that they came here to join the rebel army.

However, the dull cargo captain heard that the rebel army was not here, and after staying for a while, he finally realized, and said to Weiwei in horror: "Weiwei! What if the rebel army is not here!?"

"Stupid... idiot!"

Nami and Sanji couldn't help but want to punch this guy.

Didn't I say it before, don't expose Weiwei's identity easily.

Where did this idiot hear it?

"Vivi!?"

Sure enough, the skinny old man raised his eyebrows, and his eyes fell on Weiwei.

Weiwei suddenly twisted her body unnaturally.

"what!"

At this moment, Lu Fei suddenly realized that Weiwei's identity is still a secret, and ran up to explain in panic, "Weiwei is not a princess!"

Bang!

Now Nami couldn't bear it anymore, and rewarded Luffy with an iron fist.

"This idiot..."

Harut and the others twitched the corners of their mouths unnaturally. Didn't they tell others that she was the princess? ?

And at this moment, the skinny old man walked over excitedly, with tears in his eyes, and put his hands on Weiwei's shoulders, "It's you, Weiwei! I'm Uncle Duotuo! Don't you recognize me!? Also No wonder..."

Hearing this, Weiwei couldn't help but took a closer look at the skinny old man, and found that his eyebrows were indeed somewhat familiar.

The fat face in memory gradually overlapped with this face full of vicissitudes.

"You are... Uncle Doto!"

Weiwei couldn't help covering her mouth and said in surprise.

Unexpectedly, the fat elder in memory turned into this appearance.

Huhuhu~~

There was a slight sound of wind, and Harut turned his head to look north. On the horizon, a vast expanse of yellow sand and dust surged.

(North!)

Harut narrowed his eyes thoughtfully.

"A sandstorm is coming!" Soon, Harut reminded everyone.

Having crossed the desert, he was quite familiar with sandstorms at this time, and he immediately recognized this natural disaster in the desert.

"Come, come!"

Hearing this, Duo Tuo looked at it in surprise, and then called everyone to hide in the house.

Although there were a lot of things on the cart, the Straw Hats had no shortage of strong guys, and they could handle it in two or three strokes.

A sandstorm fell on the city, and Doto was busy in the house. It seemed that he had dealt with the sandstorm not once or twice.

Soon, he talked about the current situation of the rebel army, while not forgetting to express his trust in the king.

"how come!?"

Weiwei couldn't accept it, Cattleya was near Rapeseed Port! ?

In this case, they actually missed it at the beginning!

Is this God joking! ?

Weiwei gripped her hand tightly, her nails almost digging into the flesh of her palm.

"I don't think convincing the rebels is the most important thing right now."

At this time, Harut sat on the chair and said.

"Um!?"

Everyone's eyes fell on him.

"The senior secret agents of the Baroque Work Agency have already begun to assemble, and it seems that their preparations have entered the final stage."

Harut looked around, and continued: "And, judging from the current situation, I'm afraid they have entered the final stage."

Why did Robin let Vivi know the truth?

Bad taste?

Or kindness?

Harut does not deny that Robin may still have some kindness in her heart, but the historical text is her pursuit and her sustenance. How could she easily shatter her dream?

Being able to tell Weiwei can only mean that it doesn't matter whether Weiwei knows or not.

War is no longer shifted by anyone's will.

As long as the country stays dry!

Weiwei's face turned pale, as she was so intelligent, she naturally thought of this possibility, but she still gritted her teeth and said, "We still have time, as long as..."

"You really think you can meet the rebel leader!?"

Harut couldn't help shaking his head and said, "Judging from the current situation, I'm afraid there are secret members of the Baroque Work Agency in the rebel army and the king's army. As long as you get close to the rebel army, they may find out and mess up your business. and……"

Harut glanced at Weiwei, and said meaningfully: "Will they believe in a 'hero' or will they think this is a conspiracy by the king?"

"enough!!!"

Vivi couldn't help but roared.

She had thought about all these in her heart, but in the face of Crocodile's strength, she really didn't want to face him head-on.

At this time, the Straw Hats were a little silent. Indeed, these things are very possible.

"I think you should understand that the rebel army now has a size of 70, and the war is no longer shifted by anyone's will. Moreover, if Crocodile wants to be on the stage of this country, whether it is the king's army or the rebel army It's a threat to him..."

"I'm afraid, he already has the idea of ​​letting the king's army and the rebel army die together..."

Harut is not good at politics, but he also understands that if Crocodile wants to become king logically, then neither the rebel army nor the king's army can exist. Only in this way will his identity factor be weakened to the minimum.

After all, he was a pirate no matter what, and as long as there was a guy with a reputation comparable to his, it would be almost impossible to "reasonably" become king.

Of course, only the dead are the cleanest, and there is no trouble at all.

"What else can I do if I don't stop it! That's a million lives!!!"

Weiwei roared like an enraged beast.

"you are too naive!"

At this time, Luffy said with a serious face.

"Eh!?"

Not only Nami and Harut looked at Luffy in shock.

Innocent! ?

Is this what Luffy would say?

However, Harut reacted quickly.

(Is it early?)

Harut remembered that Luffy "quit" after starting from Yuba.

Thinking about it carefully, he should have had an idea before.

Thinking of this, Harut immediately decided to let the captain be a bad face.

So, Harut didn't speak, and watched the captain speak.

"War, how can there be no dead..."

Lu Fei's face was indifferent, as if those lives were nothing.

Having said that, Vivi immediately became angry, rushed over and grabbed Luffy by the collar, and shouted, "I think everyone is safe and sound!?"

At this moment, Weiwei, who was pierced by Harut's fantasy, lost her mind.

Duo Tuo is also silent, obviously, Wei Wei's thinking is somewhat idealized.

This is...

War!

"The enemy is one of the powerful pirates of the Shichibukai under the king, and as Harut said, this is a war of millions of people. It is impossible for no one to be injured or die. You are too naive !"

Lu Fei became more serious, and even looked at Weiwei indifferently, ignoring Weiwei's heart that was on the verge of collapse at this time.

(Damn! What you said makes sense!)

At this moment, Harut couldn't help but praise the captain's eloquence. Sure enough, the usual funny comparisons are all illusions!

Usopp and the others looked at Luffy in silence, and it had to be said that they all agreed with what Luffy said at this time.

Snapped!

The princess couldn't accept it, so she slapped her across the face, and Luffy was immediately sent flying.

"Shut up! Don't say such things again!"

"Whether it's the rebel army or the king's army, everyone is right, why should he lose his life because of his conspiracy!"

"But what else can I do if I don't stop the rebel army!?"

Vivi shook Luffy excitedly.

"Go and defeat Crocodile!"

"Just knock him down!"

Lu Fei also roared, and slapped Weiwei hard without any politeness.

"You bastard!"

Seeing this, Sanji almost couldn't sit still, he dared to hit a woman in front of him, no matter how reasonable you are, a gentleman can't bear it.

"..."

Zoro didn't speak, but put his hand on Sanji's shoulder, and he was the only one who could suppress Sanji at this time.

"But even if I try my best, I can't defeat him!"

"If I can defeat him with my life, I will definitely fight!"

"But!..."

Vivi and Luffy fight each other.

"You bastard!"

Uncle Doto couldn't bear it anymore, and was about to rush up to fight Luffy, but Harut quickly grabbed him.

"In that case! Let's fight with our lives!"

"we are not……"

Luffy took a deep breath, suppressed Weiwei, and shouted: "...Partner!!?"

Weiwei was stunned for a moment, and tears flowed out like she didn't want money.

partner?

Weiwei looked around and saw the smiles on everyone's faces.

I……

Is there a life for a partner?

"Um……"

Weiwei couldn't control her tears any more, she covered her mouth and tried not to cry.

(There is really a set...)

Harut felt a little emotional in his heart. I have to say that this stupid captain has the power to infect people's hearts at this time?

"hey-hey……"

Seeing this, Lu Fei wiped his nose and laughed, "I finally cried! This will be fine!"

"Now, the most important thing is..."

Luffy looked at everyone with a serious face.

gollum...

Obviously, Luffy's courageous performance just now slightly frightened everyone. At this moment, the majesty of the captain filled everyone's hearts, and they looked at him quietly, wanting to see what he wanted to say.

"The most important thing is..."

"Have a meal!"

boom!

The Straw Hats fell down, sweating profusely, and almost lost their minds.

(Wipe, wipe, wipe!)

(I wipe!)

(Why is it eating!)

The crew members are full of enthusiasm (┯_┯)

(I was wrong about π_π, I should have known from the beginning that he would always be a funny π_π)

Harut was deeply ashamed of what he had just thought.

"hey-hey……"

"Sanji, I'm hungry..."

It's a pity that the dull cargo captain didn't realize that he already had the legendary "majesty" just now, and said with a smirk.
