One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Max-Level Swordsman

Ling Tian, ​​running at lightning speed, arrived at Alabasta as quickly as a meteor chasing the moon.

Ling Tian stood on a high place and looked down at the country. He couldn't help but sigh: "This place is really in chaos!"

Back then, Alabasta was one of the countries that established the World Government and was supposed to belong to the Celestial Dragons, but now it has become so dilapidated and desolate.

"Looking for Crocodile!" Ling Tian whispered to himself and cast his eyes on the watch on his left hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, a faint and mysterious light suddenly burst out from the dial, pointing directly in a certain direction.

Only Ling Tian could perceive this light.

Ling Tian stared at the beam of light and followed it without hesitation.

He knew very well that as long as Crocodile was defeated, the crisis in Alabasta would be completely resolved.

However, in order to prevent any accidents, Ling Tian decided to send a physical clone to stop the spread of the war between the king's army and the rebel forces.

...... "That should be the rainy land, right?" Following the route indicated by the watch, Ling Tian soon arrived at Crocodile's hiding place - the rainy land.

After Ling Tian stepped into the rainy land, he glanced around and couldn't help but feel amazed: "Compared with other places in Alabasta, this place is completely different from the world!"

He knew very well that this place was Crocodile's lair, and it was naturally not the same as other places in Alabasta.

"call out......"

As soon as he entered the rainy land, Ling Tian quickly used his Observation Haki to try to find Crocodile's trace. Although he was wearing a watch that could indicate the other party's position, he always believed that relying on his own perception ability was more reliable.

Sure enough, not long after, Ling Tian successfully locked onto Crocodile's position with his powerful observation Haki. His eyes lit up and he teleported, disappearing from the spot like a ghost, rushing towards his target.

……

"What is this?" Crocodile stared at the small bottle filled with unknown liquid in his hand and murmured in a low voice.

His eyes were full of confusion and curiosity, as if this small bottle concealed a huge secret.

Because of Ling Tian, ​​the people in the pirate world have long forgotten everything about the Demon Clan.

However, no traces of the items left behind by the demons were erased.

This was not because Ling Tian was unable to do this at the time, but because of another reason - at that time, the time on the experience card used by Ling Tian had run out.

"Crocodile"

As he was carefully examining the small bottle in his hand, suddenly, a deep and clear voice came from behind him.

"who!"

Crocodile was startled and trembled all over at the sudden sound.

He quickly turned around and glanced around, finally fixing his eyes on a man in purple clothes and purple hair standing not far away.

"Who are you?" Crocodile stared at the other person, with a hint of vigilance and confusion in his eyes.

He thought to himself that this person must be someone important to have dared to approach him so quietly.

The moment Crocodile saw that the person coming was Ling Tian, ​​his eyes instantly became solemn.

As one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he is no stranger to Ling Tian, ​​a pirate with a very high bounty.

Of course, he was aware of Ling Tian's strength, especially when he had challenged Whitebeard and Whitebeard had told him about Ling Tian's strength, Crocodile realized that the person in front of him was no ordinary person.

"I promised someone that I would take this country back from you." Ling Tian replied with a sneer.

His tone was calm, but the determination in it was impossible to ignore.

Hearing this, Crocodile's expression suddenly changed.

He never expected that at this critical moment, Ling Tian would actually come to Alabasta and declare that he would take the country back from him.

He was shocked by this unexpected turn of events and realized that things might become more and more difficult.

"Don't forget, I am one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea!"

Crocodile widened his eyes and glared at Ling Tian in front of him, with a hint of threat and warning in his voice.

He knew very well in his heart that with Ling Tian's strength, he was no match for him, but he really didn't want to fight with him, so he wanted to use the title of Seven Warlords of the Sea to make the other party afraid.

"You attacking me means you are declaring war on the World Government!"

Immediately afterwards, Crocodile uttered another harsh word, trying to further suppress Ling Tian.

However, all this was just his bluff.

Ling Tian naturally understood Crocodile's thoughts, and he didn't take this little trick seriously at all.

Ling Tian only chuckled: "Puff..."

Then he said slowly, "Are you sure that when the World Government finds out what you have done, they will come to arrest me first instead of working with me to arrest you?"

You know, although the Seven Warlords of the Sea are recognized by the World Government and can legally rob on the sea, they must also abide by certain rules.

Crocodile's act of daring to steal a country is beyond the scope of power granted to the Seven Warlords of the Sea by the World Government.

In other words, if this matter is exposed, the World Government will never let him off easily.

Sure enough, Crocodile's face changed when he heard Ling Tian's words, but he quickly recovered.

He knew very well in his heart that what he was doing now had already exceeded the power granted to him by the World Government.

However, in the eyes of the people of Alabasta, he is by no means the despicable thief who stole the country.

"Yes, acting in secret did make me cross the boundary of the authority granted to the Shichibukai by the World Government."

Crocodile suddenly realized this, but then he showed a sly smile.

"However, in the eyes of these kind-hearted and honest citizens of Alabasta, how could I be a despicable usurper? On the contrary, I am an irreplaceable hero in their hearts!"

As his thoughts gradually became clearer, the smile on Crocodile's face became more and more intense.

"You still underestimate the World Government's intelligence!"

Ling Tian's eyes became deep, and then he spoke.

When Crocodile heard this, his heart tightened, but he remained calm.

"Oh? Really? So what? As long as I do it perfectly, even those CP guys won't be able to find out anything." Crocodile asked back.

Hearing Crocodile's words, Ling Tian's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a sly smile: "By the way, I forgot to tell you one thing. The princess of Alabasta, Nefertari Weiwei, is on our ship right now."

Crocodile's expression changed instantly. He never thought that the princess of Alabasta, Nefertari Weiwei, was actually on Lingtian's ship.

"Do you think... do I have enough evidence to prove your attempt to usurp state power?" Ling Tian looked at Crocodile in a joking tone.

Faced with Ling Tian's questioning, Crocodile fell silent.

He knew that his plan had been exposed, and if he couldn't find a way to solve the problem, the consequences would be disastrous.
