One Piece: Transform into the Eight Great Demons!

Boom!

Crocodile slammed the table, forcing Lindsay to shut up, but also startled everyone around him.

In order to create the image of a national hero, Crocodile has always been calm in his words and deeds.

But everyone in Alabasta discovered that since returning from overseas this time, Crocodile's mood swings have been particularly violent, and he has even become a little nervous!

Is it because the journey is too tiring?

Or are you worried about Alabasta, so you seem a little impatient?

But no matter what, no one in Alabasta regards Crocodile as a "pirate".

On the one hand, it was because of his official position as King Shichibukai; on the other hand, it was because Crocodile's existence really frightened the surrounding pirates.

【Sand Crocodile】Sir is such a good person!

…

I really want to kill all the people who are in the way!

——Krokdal thought.

One or two of them actually came to disrupt his plan?

The drum kingdom, warmongers, underground forces...

Are you all living impatiently?

According to Crocodile's original character, if he encountered this kind of thing, he would probably rush directly to the Drum Kingdom and use Shalan to kill him.

However, he really couldn't bear to part with Alabasta, a perfect stronghold.

Not only does it hide many secrets such as historical texts, but it is also a rare superpower on the Grand Line, allowing Crocodile to secretly develop its power without being noticed by the navy.

"This is the only information I know at the moment."

Crocodile took out a cigar and was about to light it, but Lindsay next to him snuffed out the flame.

The latter pointed at Weiwei not far away, indicating that there were still children around, so try not to smoke.

Crocodile: "..."

He had no choice but to hold the unlit cigar in his mouth and said coldly:

"Alabasta and Drum Island are both affiliated countries of the World Government. As the King of the Shichibukai, I have no way to interfere in the affairs between your affiliated countries."

The conversation changed.

"But I can't sit still and wait for death. Once I find the troublemaker, I will take action. You don't have to interfere."

"..."

The original intention of these words was to prevent the people in Alabasta from getting in the way.

Crocodile was also curious as to what kind of "war monger" he was that would pursue the idea of ​​a superpower!

What is their purpose? What methods were used?

Knowing more about some of its secrets will be more beneficial to your future plans!

But from the perspective of an onlooker, Crocodile's words were a bit too kind.

It seems that the implication is:

"Don't worry, leave the garbage in the underground world to me!"

"..."

"Okay, that's it for the time being. Let's analyze the current situation."

Cobra nodded seriously and said slowly:

"The declaration of war from the Drum Kingdom is very inexplicable, and their subsequent actions are even stranger."

He took out a nautical chart, which marked the locations of recent frictions between the two countries.

"Look, you guys."

Kobra pointed to the markings above and continued: "The places where these frictions occur are Alabasta's offshore routes, which have a great impact on people's livelihood and business."

"The actions of the Drum Kingdom are mainly based on harassment, as if they are deliberately trying to cause our dissatisfaction."

When a small country fights a big country, continuous harassment is a big taboo. The former cannot wear down the latter.

But the actions of the Drum Kingdom are really strange, as if they are deliberately trying to provoke Alabasta's anger, and the two countries have to declare war on each other!

"There must be a conspiracy."

Cobra touched his chin and said, "Although this is not a good thing to say, I think Wapol, the current king of the Drum Kingdom, is not good at doing tricks."

To put it more bluntly: Wapol's IQ is not enough for him to play tricks on him.

In this case, it must be "someone" on his side who is causing trouble!

"..."

"Alabasta is so big that I can't further confirm the situation, but something must be done."

Cobra thought for a moment and finally said: "I plan to go to the rapeseed flowers in person to see the situation at the port. This is the safest way!"

"His Majesty?"

As soon as these words came out, Ikarem and all the guards were shocked.

From ancient times to the present, how can any king personally visit the scene at the beginning of a war?

"Absolutely not, Your Majesty!"

Ikarem was so anxious that he even spoke out his voice, and quickly stopped him: "If nothing else, it is too dangerous to act like this when the enemy is in the dark and we are in the clear!"

But looking at Kobra's expression, Ikarem realized that his persuasion was unnecessary.

In desperation, he had no choice but to nod in agreement, but still strongly requested that the three kingdom guards, including himself, accompany him.

"No."

Cobra shook his head, "Icarim, you stay in the royal capital and deal with internal affairs while also guarding against 'that thing'."

That thing——that is, the historical text buried under the secret room!

"That's...okay!"

Ikarem nodded.

He also believes that the existence of the historical text is too dangerous and must be guarded against. Moreover, with the two "patron saints" of Bell and Gakkar, Cobra's safety is still guaranteed.

"..."

Crocodile looked at this scene and shook his head boredly.

He really wanted to say that it didn't matter even if the two animal-type ability users didn't follow.

His eyes moved to Alvin Lindsay beside him.

After all, they have a "monster" level fantasy beast here...

…

Had a night's rest.

Afterwards, a group of six people set out on the road to the rapeseed flowers.

Yes--

six people.

It wasn't until they set off that Crocodile discovered that there was a little blue-haired girl riding on Lindsay's neck.

Weiwei? !

Crocodile couldn't help but be stunned, thinking why did the little princess of Alabasta come to join in the fun?

But looking at the expressions of Kobra and the other three, Crocodile already understood that they were probably not stubborn.

"..."

Whatever.

The existence of Alvin Lindsay awakened Crocodile a little.

Sometimes thinking too much is just to make yourself angry, so it is better not to think about it.

Crocodile gave up thinking for the time being.

On the other hand, Bell and Gakkar, who were standing aside, repeatedly assured Cobra that they would risk their lives to protect the princess' safety.

"..."

"hehe……"

After giving up thinking, Crocodile felt a sense of long-lost fun.

Safety?

Of course it’s safe!

She is now riding a head worth 650 million Beli!

This is really rare...

…

After all, it is the royal family of Alabasta, and for the convenience of transportation, it also raises some wonderful creatures.

Everyone rode the Moving Crab. Although they were not as fast as Lindsay and Crocodile, they could still reach Rapeseed Flowers in just one day.

This port city was just like before, everyone looked prepared, but there was a hint of fatigue on their brows.

"We can't waste it like this anymore."

Cobra frowned slightly, realizing that the "psychology" of the people also had to be considered. An overly tense spirit would sooner or later cause a big mess!

…

It was evening, and everyone planned to take a rest in the barracks.

But at this moment, piercing alarm bells suddenly sounded.

It's the direction of the pier!

The residents were attracted one after another, and Kobra and others hurried over.

I saw a speedboat approaching from far away, and it was in a state of full sail, with no intention of stopping at all!

"Enemy attack? It's an enemy attack!"

The king's troops were ready to prepare and at the same time dispersed the residents near the dock.

"It's a ship from the Drum Kingdom!"

"It's not going to stop?"

"It's about to hit, it's about to hit the pier, get out of the way!"

"..."

Ode!

A black shadow came out and stood on the dock that was about to be hit.

He was extremely tall and muscular, with a grin on his face and an expression of eagerness to try.

But what is even more concerning is that there is a little blue-haired girl riding on his neck.

The wind in the desert was strong and she was worried about danger, so Lindsay simply let Weiwei sit together.

The courage of this little princess is indeed extraordinary. Even if she is facing a high-speed warship, she still does not change her expression.

He just asked with some curiosity: "Mr. Lindsay, do I want to come down?"

"Anything is fine."

"Great!"

"..."

Lindsay pinched her fingers, making a crackling sound, then roared, and activated her fruit power——

Diqui form!

The dark green ghost horns grew out again.

Only this time, there were two small hands holding on to it.

The extreme contrast between the little princess and the [Devil] highlights an unspeakable tension!

"Hold on tight!"

"good!"

Lindsay strode forward, and the moment the full-sailed warship hit the dock, he took the first step and put both hands on it, struggling to move forward.

"Drink!"

After a loud shout, most of the warship's power was offset, but it also smashed part of the dock, pushing Lindsay back several meters.

"call……"

Lindsay steadied herself and exhaled a breath of hot breath.

Fortunately, all the ships parked in the port were fine, and the damaged parts could be repaired soon.

As for Weiwei, who was riding on Lindsay's neck, she only felt a bump and nothing else.

The little princess calmed down, then looked over the edge of the warship, looked up, and saw a strange scene.

On the deck, there was a "bison" standing with scars all over its body.

After realizing that the warship had finally stopped, the "bison" seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief, trembled and turned back to its human form, and then fell down with a plop.

"What are you looking at?"

Lindsay noticed something strange about Weiwei, stretched her neck to look, and then realized that something was abnormal.

He recognized the badly wounded "bison".

It is Dalton, the captain of the Drum Kingdom Guards and the animal-type ability user who ate the Cow-Niu Fruit!

At this moment, Dalton couldn't even open his eyes, and used his last strength to roar:

"Save...save, magnetic drum...people..., it's Yin..."

Then, fainting.

…
