Behind the scenes of One Piece

Crocodile was a little panicked.

As a wielder of the Sand Fruit, he has fought against various opponents, but he has never encountered a second opponent who used sand to such an extent.

All the combat experience accumulated in the past was suddenly useless!

He couldn't help but curse secretly in his heart, shouldn't there be only one of each natural fruit?How come there is a second sand-type fruit?

Did God get crazy and make one more?

And having said that, in the battle just now, the various tricks he used were obviously within the expectations of this young man named Guli.

This means that in addition to his treacherous and changeable combat abilities, this person also has very powerful intelligence capabilities.

Thinking of this, he suddenly had the intention to stop.

It seems that there is no big advantage to be gained by continuing the fight, so it is better to stop here and listen to the "some important news" mentioned by the other party.

Then his whole body turned into fine sand and he quickly retreated more than ten meters.

When Guli on the opposite side saw him retreating, he immediately stopped and put the sand back into the gourd.

"No fight?" Gu Li asked.

"No fight." Crocodile smiled and said: "You have demonstrated enough strength and successfully aroused my interest in those 'important news'."

"If you don't fight, will I be considered the winner in this sparring match?"

"Childish focus." Crocodile said: "Since you care so much, you can naturally win."

As he finished speaking, the system's beep sounded in Guli's mind in time.

【Ding! 】

[Non-task reward: meeting the plot character Mr.0 and having communication, 18 bonus points]

[Hidden mission completion: 4/4]

[The hidden mission in the desert plot has been completed. 】

[The host defeated Mr. 4, Mr. 2, Mr. 1, and Mr. 0, the special agents of Baroque Works respectively in the competition. 】

[Get reward: 50 points]

"call--"

Gu Li took a long breath.

From several high-level agents, he got a total of 48 points, plus the 50 points from the mission reward, he was only 148 points away from the 50-point debt!

In other words, he has exactly one 50-point task left:

Key mission eight in the desert plot, stop Blackbeard’s plan!

Gu Li thought, the key to stopping Blackbeard is to dissuade Crocodile!

So he briefly told the origin of Blackbeard.

"A member of the Whitebeard Pirates? He was unknown before?" Crocodile immediately frowned after hearing what he said: "An unknown person wants to hunt for my head?"

"Exactly." Guli said: "You don't want to work hard for so many years and end up taking advantage of others, right? So you must not show up at Nahana in five days!"

"ok, I get it."

Crocodile didn't say anything more, and silently took out a cigar from his body and lit it.

Then he took out a second one and shook it towards Gu Li: "Want one?"

Gu Li shook his head: "I can't get used to smoking this thing."

"Then what do you want in exchange for giving me this information?"

Guli was stunned, but he immediately realized that people like Crocodile didn't like to owe favors.

"Then...can you please give up your plan to capture Alabasta?"

Crocodile's pupils shrank suddenly.

"What did you say? Where did you hear I had this plan?"

Then, without waiting for Gu Li to answer, he continued to ask:

"Is it Miss.allSunday? Are you very close to her?"

Guli did not expect such a big reaction from him, and immediately shook his head in denial: "My fruit ability is related to predicting the future, so I can guess your plan."

"What? Are those fancy fighting methods of yours not fruit abilities?" Crocodile was a little unbelievable.

"Yes, my fruit is quite special. It has many uses." Guli said stiffly.

He couldn't explain things like the system, nor did he want to.

Anyway, this is the world of pirates, and all unreasonable things can be attributed to the fruit, and no matter how bizarre it is, some people will believe it!

"Amazing fruit..." Crocodile murmured, then shook his head and said, "I have been preparing for this plan for many years, and I cannot give up just because of a small favor from you."

Gu Li spread his hands and said, "Forget it."

In fact, he didn't expect to be able to persuade the other party so easily.

Moreover, if Crocodile really gives up, then Luffy will miss an opportunity to grow. As a member of the Straw Hats, he does not want to see this result.

Crocodile didn't expect Guli to be so easy to talk to. He was stunned for a long time before adding: "You can go to the 'Rain Feast' and play whatever you want in the past two days, and all the money you win will be yours."

After saying this, he turned around and turned into a streak of sand, flying away towards the center of the city.

"Hey - don't run so fast, give me a ride."

Gu Li shouted twice, and seeing the other party flying further and further away, he turned around helplessly and returned to the carriage.

He took the cash box first, and then walked slowly towards the city center.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I saw a big turtle running towards me pulling a car in the distance.

"So leisurely? Get in the car?" Robin asked.

"Come on, why did you come here?" Gu Li joked and sat down unceremoniously.

Robin did not answer his words, but said tentatively: "Krokdal said you are very powerful."

"Well, I can barely be considered a winner in the competition just now." Gu Li was a little proud.

"Then I'm a little curious," Robin asked: "You are so powerful, why are you not the captain of your pirate group?"

"This..." Guli thought for a while and explained: "Because that ship was saved by Luffy, and he has great potential. Sooner or later he will become the Pirate King."

"One Piece?" Seeing the seriousness with which he spoke, Robin found it very interesting and couldn't help but laugh.

"Why are you laughing? I'm serious. He can really become the Pirate King."

"Okay, then let me first congratulate you for following a good captain." Robin pursed his lips, trying not to laugh out loud, obviously not taking his words too seriously.

However, Gu Li did not care about her joking words and continued to say seriously:

"Don't envy me, you can come to our ship. Crocodile is not a guy worth relying on. He is just using your ability to do things for him."

When Robin heard the invitation, he was obviously stunned for a moment, then smiled and shook his head.

"I have met the captain of your ship. He is a very simple person. But I am burdened with too much darkness and am not suitable for boarding your ship.

What's more, although Crocodile is not a good person, he is very strong, and it is enough for me to be my half supporter. "

Guli sighed.

Robin has been dealing with the darkness alone for too long. Although she yearns for the light, she is also afraid of it.

"Okay, I won't force you to advise, but if Crocodile fails one day, you must consider joining our group."
