One Piece: From Picking Up Red Hair's Broken Arm

Chapter 99: The Seven Warlords of the Sea Appear [13]

"Crocodale?"

Mr. 5's eyes were clearly confused, and he spoke with difficulty, "Why should I listen to that guy?"

It turns out I don’t even know who my boss is.

"So, you want to attack us yourself?"

Xia Nuo rubbed his temples, speechless for a moment, "Since you know me, you still dare to attack me, who gave you the courage?"

"Misunderstanding, it's a misunderstanding!"

Mr.5 was in tears and regretted his decision so much that he wished he could turn back time to ten minutes ago and slap his confident self in the face.

Is this the new pirate group that just set foot on the Grand Line?
The captain doesn't even need to make a move, two people just jump out, they are the users of natural devil fruit abilities?
That's a natural devil fruit.

When did it become like cabbage?

He had been on the Grand Line for so many years, and he had only seen Crocodile, a naturalist, from afar.

That was when they returned triumphantly, and he caught a glimpse of them while squeezing at the end of the welcoming team.

But today, just when I wanted to show off in front of my subordinates, I ran into two...

Seeing him like this, Xia Nuo sighed softly.

really...

There are still too many inexplicable people on this ocean.

There are always those idiots who can only choose between ambition and brains.

Even if someone as strong as Admiral Kizaru is performing a live performance where he can kick down supernovas one by one, there will still be youngsters who want to try and see if they can shoot them in the head and become famous.

Xia Nuo shook his head and was about to say something when he saw Mr. 5 in front of him suddenly open his eyes wide and look behind him in disbelief.

Is someone else coming?

Xia Nuo frowned and stood up. He turned around and saw the scene in front of him. His eyes narrowed slightly.

The patter...

A large amount of dust was raised at the port at some point, and a black shadow gradually solidified in the yellow sand and slowly walked out from it.

He was a man about two meters and five feet tall, with a neatly combed back hair, wearing a luxurious dark brown fur coat, holding a cigar in his mouth, and looking casual and lazy.

If it weren't for the golden hook replacing his left hand and the scar on his face adding a bit of ruffian air, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he was a court aristocrat who walked out of an oil painting.

"Your boss is here."

Xia Nuo glanced at Mr. 5 and grinned, "Are you lying and pretending to be stupid even though you were about to die, or... is this just a coincidence?"

"coincide?"

Crocodile bit his cigar and said indifferently, "This is certainly not a coincidence. I have been waiting for you here since this morning, the swordsman... Shano."

"As for these two..."

He snapped his fingers, and Mr. 5, who was still in shock, was instantly lifted up by the dust and sent to Crocodile's feet.

"Boss! Crocodile, you are the boss, Mr. 0, right?"

Mr. 5 finally realized something and shouted excitedly, "Help me! I'm one of us! I'm a newly signed senior agent of Baroque Works. My code name is..."

Crocodile didn't even look at him before the golden hook suddenly turned into quicksand and instantly pierced through Mr. 5's chest.

"——He's just an idiot who insisted on getting himself into trouble!"

Under the astonished gaze of the crowd, the senior agent's body shrank rapidly, and before he could even twitch a few times, he turned into a mummy-like corpse.

"Hey, hey..." Nami was stunned. "What is this bastard doing? He even kills his own people?" "You're next, Shanuo."

Crocodile spoke softly, his eyes sweeping over the faces of the crew members of the Ender Adventure Group one by one.

"You attacked the town, killed the navy, and you, the former captain of the Navy Headquarters, White Hunter Smoker, murdered the king of an allied nation. Both of you have committed heinous crimes and are unforgivable!"

"Today, I will personally take action against you pirates."

He exhaled a large puff of smoke, his coat rustling in the yellow sand behind him. "No one can escape from here!"

"……I said."

Nami couldn't help but poke Smoker's arm, who was closest to her. "Am I seeing things? The coat this guy is wearing is black, right? There's no big word 'Justice' written on the back, right?"

Isn't this guy also a pirate?
Why do you talk in such a tidy way? You're just like those naval officers who almost have the word "justice" tattooed on their faces.
"No."

Smoker sighed, "But he's also right. The Shichibukai do have an obligation to cooperate with the government and apprehend pirates."

"Especially this one."

Smoker stared at Crocodile. "Twenty years ago, he was one of the first pirates to join the Shichibukai. Over the years, he helped the navy capture countless pirates and even became a living poster for the Shichibukai system. Even those old men and women at headquarters who were most opposed to and loathed the Shichibukai system, when they mentioned Crocodile's name, they only praised him."

"But, it seems now."

Smoker glanced at the mummy lying on the ground, his tone not without sarcasm, "This model Shichibukai hides quite a few shameful secrets beneath his guise."

"It seems that you know a lot about me."

Crocodile lightly dusted off his cigarette ash. "In that case, you should understand that rookies like you who just entered the Grand Line are not on the same level as me. Why don't you just lay down your weapons and surrender, and save me some energy? How about that?"

"We know you well."

Kuina suddenly spoke calmly, "But you, on the other hand, don't seem to know much about us. Are you so arrogant as to think that you can defeat all of us by yourself?"

Swish.

The Wado Ichimonji was half drawn out, and a cold white light flowed between the scabbard and the hilt.

It also illuminated the young swordsman's resolute and cold eyes.

A natural devil fruit user?

If it was in Rogue Town at that time, she might not be able to cope with it, but after more than ten days of hard training, she has been able to master the armament color and apply it in actual combat.

She wanted to see if the Seven Warlords of the Sea could withstand her attack!
Xia Nuo remained silent.

Unlike the angry crew members, the look in his eyes when he looked at Crocodile was filled with only regret and dissatisfaction.

As one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea active in this sea area, Crocodile has even greater control over information and intelligence on nearby islands than the navy.

He was not surprised that he was ambushed first.

But despite having a large group of subordinates, he chose to come alone...

Where is my candle Bobby, where is the shemale Bobby, where is the bald Bobby?

And the most important one, what about the arm burpee?
It should have been a full banquet so that he could get all the benefits at once, but instead all he got was your dish?

This feeling of being looked down upon...

“It’s really frustrating.”

Shanuo's mouth curled up, and he twisted his neck, which suddenly made a crackling sound like popping beans. He stared at Crocodile, and a long-lost light of excitement flashed in his eyes:
"Hey, everyone, get back to the boat. I'll take care of this thing. No one is allowed to interfere!"

[PS: I took ketotifen fumarate tablets last night, and the side effects were quite severe, which caused today's update to be a bit late. Sorry, there are still two more updates before midnight.]
