Pirates: Admiral Silver Falcon is also very irritable today

Crocodile?

Michael's mouth twitched.

Is this really the case?

Crocodile is only 27 years old now, and should still be at his most high-spirited.

After all, when he was 20, he fought a battle with Douglas Barrett, who was called the "Devil's Descendant", and the result was a draw.

And now he has not yet challenged Whitebeard, and his heart has not been hit.

In other words, he should not have started to be obsessed with obtaining the power of "Pluto" yet?

"Are you sure about the accuracy of this news?"

"If it was only the information brought back by the scholars, I might hesitate, but now there is also a strange sandstorm that has never appeared in the rainy land..." Cobra looked solemn and nodded, saying, "Combining the two sides, it is estimated that it is almost certain."

Michael frowned after listening to Cobra's words.

In any case, the combination of these two pieces of information can indeed directly prove that Crocodile has indeed come to Alabasta.

"Oh, there's one more thing!" Cobra seemed to have remembered something and hurriedly added, "The returning scholar said with certainty that Crocodile was injured!"

Injured?

Michael was suddenly stunned.

Although Crocodile's bounty is only 81 million, this is just the value he has earned in just a few years since he started out.

Just like the guy who kidnapped the three Hancock sisters and was killed instantly by Smoker, his bounty of 76 million seems to be about the same as Crocodile's level, but if they really fight, he will only be killed instantly.

After all, one started with 81 million, and the other's highest achievement can only reach 76 million.

And judging from the record of Crocodile and Barrett's tie, there shouldn't be many people who can hurt him...

Unless he messes with those old guys.

"Tomorrow, I will go to the rainy land and investigate it myself." Michael nodded to Cobra, "Whether as your friend or as the head of the Alabasta Navy branch, I will not sit idly by."

"Huh, that's good." In this way, Cobra finally put down a big stone in his heart, "You don't know, after getting this news, I haven't been able to sleep well in the past few days..."

"Then go back to sleep! You can even come to me tomorrow morning to talk about this matter, right!?" Michael looked helplessly at Cobra, who was completely different from when he was on the throne, "The child is about to be born, but you stay by your wife's side at night, damn it!"

"Ahem, this is not a matter of anxiety."

Cobra's face was a little embarrassed, but there was no way...

How can others snore beside my bed?

Such a big pirate with the ability of a natural fruit, and it's the Sand-Sand Fruit!

In Alabasta, his ability will be magnified to a very exaggerated level.

It can even be said that it is more likely to have serious consequences than accepting scholars from Alabasta.

Therefore, if he doesn't tell Michael, he really can't feel at ease.

"Okay, go back when it's time." Michael waved his hand and suddenly looked at Cobra with some doubts, "No, even if it's like this, you don't have to dress like a thief, right?"

"Ahem, isn't it that Ikareem is taking Gaka and Bell to take me back to work."

"After all this trouble, you just want to skip class! Work hard, you damn king!"

In the end, Cobra still fled the manor in disgrace under Michael's criticism and expulsion.

Looking at Cobra's back, Michael showed a kind but sinister smile...

Picked up the Den Den Mushi and dialed a number.

"Hey, Ikalem."

"Your king just ran away from my manor."

"Yes, we can definitely stop him at the gap in the low wall of your palace!"

...

Outskirts of the rainy land.

In the depths of the desert, there is a large sandstorm that has stayed in place and has never moved since it appeared.

Even though there was almost no wind this night, there was still no sign of stopping.

"Sand, sand, sand..."

The sound of stepping on the sand continued to sound in the silent night sky, and it was particularly clear.

The man who made the footsteps raised his head, and it was a pair of eagle-like eyes.

Reaching out to take off the huge black knife behind him, a simple and unpretentious flying slash with obvious armed color domineering directly cut through the sky.

And the sandstorm that had never stopped gradually dissipated.

"Hey, Hawkeye, why did you find me here?"

Suit vest, fur coat,With a cigar in his mouth and a golden hook in his hand, he was the still-young Crocodile. The man who drew the black knife was naturally the "Hawkeye" Jurakol Mihawk. The two future Shichibukai, the founders of the Cross Guild in the original work, met in the desert outside the Rainland. "I'm just a little curious, what exactly caused you to get hurt?" Hawkeye's face was expressionless as always, and all his emotions were completely reflected in his eyes. "Although I don't think much of Devil Fruit users, I have never denied your power, especially those with Nature Fruit abilities."

"Hmph, stop talking nonsense." Crocodile snorted, "Do you want to attack me now? I heard that you no longer hunt the navy."

"To be precise... I hunted that one time, and failed." Hawkeye said without hesitation, "It was also after that time that I found that I seemed to have a misunderstanding of the navy... To be precise, I have some misunderstandings about the navy."

"I don't care what your purpose is!" Crocodile seemed to have heard enough of Hawkeye's calm narration, "I need you, get out of here now!"

"Even as a pirate, your temper is really bad enough."

After Hawkeye finished speaking, he didn't care about Crocodile's threat at all, but walked towards the camp built by Crocodile with sand.

"I brought you important information."

"Information?" Crocodile frowned, "What information?"

"Tell me first, who injured you."

"...Damn it." After staying in the desert for a while, Crocodile, who was somewhat blocked from information, frowned and thought for a moment, and finally chose to compromise, "Forget it, there is nothing I can't tell you."

Crocodile sat on the "sand" beside him and said:

"After all, it's not shameful to be defeated by the right and left hands of the Pirate King."

"The right and left hands of the Pirate King?" Hawkeye suddenly became interested.

"Yes, I challenged Rayleigh and Jabba."

"And the result, you also saw it."

Crocodile lifted his cloak, and three hideous wounds were still bleeding even after being bandaged.
