The blood of the pirate

At this moment, an old and deep voice sounded. Ross turned around and saw that the white-haired old man sitting behind the long table was looking at him and said in a deep voice: "I am Gan, the mayor of this town. Specially, on behalf of Xier and Xia, I would like to express my gratitude to you, but I hope you can leave here with your friends after dawn tomorrow."

Ross asked in confusion: "Why is this?"

The old man's face was full of confusion: "Is this your first time here?"

Ross nodded: "That's right, after all, it's been many years."

"That's right, let me tell you. Now the whole of Alabasta has been ruled by a group of zombies. The first place where zombies appeared was in the village northeast of the royal capital. The people there suddenly discovered one night that in the cemetery The corpses emerged from the ground one after another, and then launched an attack on the people in the town, and more than half of the people in the entire town died that night."

The old man's voice paused and continued.

"And here are the zombies that appeared half a year ago. Because we appeared here late, we learned some things. For example, the corpses of the dead disappeared inexplicably. Not long after, someone would see them and they all changed. The zombies have returned, so we have to hide in this house to avoid being attacked by zombies.”

When Ross heard the old man's words, he fell into deep thought. In recent years, Ross's intelligence network had spread all over the sea. He knew that Alabasta had 70 self-defense troops.

"What about the country's military? Didn't they take action?"

"Army? Where is the army?"

The old mayor took off his glasses and wiped them. He looked desolate and said sadly: "When the zombie wave first broke out, the army was completely defeated. At the beginning, we were expecting His Majesty King Kobra to stand up and lead the army to calm down." This terrible disaster, but we later found out that this wave of corpses was caused by the collaboration between him and Moonlight Mogliari!"

Rose's brows frowned: "Isn't that right, old man? Your king has always had a good reputation. How could he do such a thing?"

"And what is the purpose of joining forces with Moonlight Moria?"

"Of course it's to pursue immortality!"

Mentioning this matter, the old mayor was quite angry and gritted his teeth and said: "When zombies appeared in large numbers, there was a rumor that our king wanted to live forever, so he cooperated with Moonlight Moria to turn this country into a zombie. Turning into a zombie country, we didn’t believe it at first, but gradually, seeing everyone saying this, and the appearance of Lord Crocodile, we were convinced that this was their conspiracy.”

When Nami heard what the old man said, she said dissatisfiedly: "This king is too hateful."

Ross waved Nami to be silent. He said: "I think it's better not to draw too early a conclusion on this matter. I also met this king in the early years, and he is not such a person. And you just mentioned Kroc." Dar?"

"Young man, you know people but not their hearts. Fortunately, we still have Mr. Crocodile here, otherwise his and Moria's conspiracy would have succeeded long ago!"

"Krokdal is actually related to this matter, I understand."

Ross smiled when he heard the name. I should have thought of it.

"That's right!"

Syl, the girl next to her, suddenly spoke up. When she mentioned the man's name, her face was filled with admiration: "Although Mr. Crocodile is a pirate, he has been punishing evil and promoting good since he came to our country. The pirate who retreated and invaded helped everyone, which also made us admire him very much."

"This time, after he became aware of Moria and Kobra's conspiracy, he stood up immediately and led the citizens to continuously launch resistance. Only then did the entire country not completely become a zombie country!"

"Have you never suspected that Crocodile was acting?" Although Ross knew that they would not believe this, he still wanted to ask and confirm how high Crocodile's status in the hearts of the people was.

A person who stands up in times of crisis can always become a hero. Ross, who has played against Crocodile, knows that Crocodile is an ambitious man and he will not let go of this opportunity.

"How could Master Crocodile do such a thing? If you slander him next time, no matter whether you are my savior or not, you will be hated by me." The girl said dissatisfied.

Ross waved his hand, indicating that he would not say anything anymore.

Now the situation is obvious. It seems that the intelligence is very accurate. Moonlight Moria has cooperated with Crocodile. One is playing the red face and the other is the bad face, playing the country between their hands.

"By the way, why do you let us go?"

"Because we found that people who are not from this country will be more harmed. These zombies seem to have the ability to distinguish between outsiders and locals." The old man explained.

"Understood."

After saying that, Rose took Nami and left. The situation had been understood and it was time to leave.

"Are you just leaving like that?" Nami looked at Rose's profile.

"That's it. Let's go find them to settle the score." Ross looked into the distance. These guys have made this country so miserable. It's really unforgivable.

Ross took Nami out of the town and encountered several waves of zombies on the way, but they were completely vulnerable to Ross's slashes.

Soon, under the surprised eyes of the villagers, all the zombies in the town were killed.

The corpse tide that had been plaguing the town for a long time was actually solved so easily. They suddenly realized that they had seemed to have underestimated the strength of this foreign guest.

But Rose and Nami had already gone far.

In the night, Rose and Nami continued to move forward.

On the way, Ross has been thinking about a problem. The country is in such chaos now. Logically speaking, Crocodile should appear in the public eye, but now his whereabouts are very strange. No one knows where he is. where.

"What a scheming guy. Are you still unwilling to show up now?" Ross was a little distressed.

Ross, who got information from the old man, knew that the last time Crocodile appeared was half a month ago. Like a god, he helped the town repel a wave of zombies, but then he disappeared again.

"If it's really like what you said, then his position should be in the royal capital." Nami was also very smart, she analyzed it and said.

"The capital is not small. Forget it, let's go and take a look first. He will always show up." Ross simply ignored these things and continued to move forward.
