"How dare you provoke these two people?" Even Hawkeye couldn't help but laugh at Crocodile's ignorance, "They are the right-hand men of the Pirate King and the people who founded the entire Cross Guild!"

"Damn it, of course I know!"

Crocodile looked at Hawkeye with gritted teeth.

This is all because he has been...

floating recently.

Whether it is the development of the Sand-Sand Fruit or the confidence in his own physical skills, it is the confidence that Crocodile challenges the strong everywhere.

However, he is still far away from the world's top strongmen.

And the three injuries on his body that have not been completely healed until now are lessons.

The reason why he came to Alabasta is just to avoid the possible pursuit of the Cross Guild.

A grain of sand may be extremely eye-catching in front of you.

But when he hides in the endless desert, there is nothing to pursue.

"You haven't told me yet, what exactly are you here for?" Crocodile glanced at Hawkeye with a cold look, "Don't tell me that you want to kill me at this time."

"I have no interest in killing you." Hawkeye tilted his head and looked at the injured but still ferocious crocodile, "I was just wandering around the sea... but now I do have a small goal."

"What goal?" Crocodile snorted coldly, "Forget it, I'm not interested either. Since you are not here to take my head, get out of here quickly."

"I can't say, it has nothing to do with you." Hawkeye didn't care about Crocodile's attitude at all, "I don't know, as the famous desert king, have you heard that there is a mysterious and powerful navy on the sea?"

Crocodile was stunned.

Navy?

What does the navy have to do with them?

"Hawkeye, although you are not a pirate, you don't seem to have anything to do with the navy, right? Strictly speaking, you are a criminal who attacked the navy."

"These are not your business."

"... Tsk, well, of course I have heard of that famous mysterious navy." Crocodile did not continue to bicker with Hawkeye, but calmed down and said gently, "It is said that it is a mysterious force trained by the Navy Headquarters. There is no clear division of functions. Almost everything can be intervened, from corruption within the navy to hunting down pirates and slave traders on the sea. ..."

"But except for the top navy officers, no one, including the World Government, knows the true identity of this force." Crocodile paused here, "Could it be that you got the clue of this mysterious navy?"

"I have been tracking this navy for two years." Hawkeye said with a smile, "Just because I have witnessed the pure white flame, it really makes people feel from the bottom of their hearts..."

Hawkeye suddenly got stuck, facing Crocodile's puzzled eyes, his mouth moved countless times, and finally spit out two words with relief.

"...Fear."

"Fear?" Crocodile seemed to have heard a big joke, "There are people who make you, a pervert with a supreme sword, feel afraid! ? "

"Sometimes, only after admitting the fear in your heart can you face him directly."

...

The next morning, Bellmère barely got up from his hangover, and under the guidance of Stella, came to the manor where Michael lived.

On the dining table in the small garden, there were five little girls of different ages sitting...

And Michael, who looked like he had lost all hope.

"Oh, you're finally here." Michael almost cried when he saw Stella and Bellemere, "These five young ladies are so hard to serve!"

When he said this, Bellemere smiled with relief.

Finally, someone has experienced the torture of parenting!

"I'm not hard to serve!"

"You're the hardest to serve!" Michael looked at little Hancock, wanting to cry but not tears, "Please, dear Crown Prince, can we temporarily abandon the royal family's etiquette!?"

In his life!

He had never made so many kinds of breakfast!

There should be some limits to being picky, you little devils!

"Okay, Michael, today is Bellemere's first day in office, stop playing tricks here." Stella walked up and picked up a piece of bread from the table. The front looked fine, but the back was completely blackened. She complained, "And judging from the quality of this breakfast... it's really not Hancock's fault. Will you eat it if I give it to you?"

"Nonsense! Of course not!"

Michael wiped his mouth and stood up.

"BellemereEr, from today on, you will officially serve as the acting commander of the Alabasta Navy Branch, with the rank of major of the Navy Headquarters. "

"In the future, daily training and mission execution will be led by you."

"If there is really something that cannot be solved, come and report to me."

Bellmaire was a little confused.

Although she knew that she could directly become a major of the headquarters from a branch major, she did not expect that Michael would directly let her serve as the acting commander of the Alabasta Navy Branch.

And Michael's words implied that he was going to give power directly to himself?

"Uh, I just returned to the Navy."

"I know, since you have just returned, don't rush to return to the front line immediately." Michael nodded seriously, "The Alabasta Branch is a new army that has just been established not long ago, and the current focus is naturally on training and running-in."

"The most important thing is that the current Alabasta does not actually need the existence of the Navy that much. "Stella took over the conversation and continued, "You should know the number of standing troops in the entire Alabasta. Ordinary pirates don't have the courage to invade Alabasta." Bellmère heard this and agreed deeply.

A full 600,000 standing troops!

The permanent population of most countries in the world does not reach this number.

From this, we can also see the strength of Alabasta.

"But in the future, if Alabasta does not have the top combat power in the navy, it will sooner or later be divided up by those guys who can destroy the world."

"And the Alabasta Navy Branch was established to avoid that scene."

Michael put his hands on Bellmère's shoulders and said earnestly:

"So, the current Alabasta Branch is handed over to you. I still need to do something today..."

"...Too close."

"Huh?"

"I said the distance is too close! "

Bellmaire made a high sweep kick, but Michael dodged it easily.

"Uh, why are you blushing?"

"I'm full of energy!"

After saying this, Bellmaire picked up the still dazed Nokigo and Nami and rushed out.
