One Piece: The Ninja Who Started as a Fisherman.

Alabasta, rapeseed flowers.

The Peppa Pig Pirates are invading here.

A gust of sand swept in, and a cold and majestic man appeared in the center of the city. His image was like a sculpture engraved in the wind and sand.

"It's the guardian angel Crocodile!"

"The hero Crocodile has really arrived!!"

A cold male voice came: "Quiet! Idiots, I'm only here to take the pirate's head!"

The face under the slicked-back hair was angular, and a scar across the cheek added a bit of iron-blooded temperament. The golden iron hook in the left hand flashed with a cold light, and the cigar in the corner of his mouth was filled with smoke.

This person is none other than the famous [Sand Crocodile], [Five-Fifty Match at the Top], [Desert King], and [Sand Conspirator] - Crocodile.

At this time, a woman who looked like a dancer said with a loving face: "You are so handsome! Lord Crocodile, you always save us from danger."

The crowd was excited, and someone suggested: "Lord Crocodile, you are the true hero and guardian of Alabasta! Perhaps we can ask you to be the king."

Lao Sha is enjoying this rhythm.

However, the scene was interrupted by a loud shout: "Shut up! Cobra is our king!"

The interrupted man accused indignantly: "Huh? What's the use of Cobra? Without rain, our country will only have constant wars! Think about the rebels! If it weren't for Cobra's inaction, how could it have turned out like this!"

At this moment, a piece of news interrupted the dispute between the two parties:

"Don't you know? The captain of the Kingdom Guard, Ikarem, has just returned to Alabasta. He said that he has found the real cause of the drought in this land."

"Not only that, it is said that the Kingdom Army has begun to make contact with the rebels in the past few days. The King himself promised that this war will soon end!"

A sharp light flashed in the depths of Crocodile's eyes, as if he had keenly captured some information.

Why didn’t the plot develop as Lao Sha expected?

Because - Ikareem, Saikan's insertion brought a little ripple to the story of Alabasta.

Ikalem came back early, and the first thing he did when he came back was to go back to the palace and tell Cobra all about Baroque's conspiracy.

When Cobra learned the truth, he suddenly realized it!

So he immediately sent people to spread the news to calm the people, while gathering troops to prepare to attack Yudi, and at the same time sent people to contact the rebel leader Kosa.

It’s a pity that my daughter and Ikalem were separated, and Vivi was the best person to contact the rebels.

During the rain banquet, Crocodile's face was so gloomy that water could almost be squeezed out of it.

He was filled with doubts.

What went wrong?

Suddenly, a meaningful voice was heard in the empty room.

"What's wrong? The boss seems unhappy."

Crocodile raised his head abruptly, his eyes fixed sharply on Robin who was sitting on the sofa, and said in a cold tone:

"Ms. Quan Sunday, don't you know why I'm angry?"

Robin, who was sitting on the chair, was not afraid at all, and smiled: "Does your behavior mean that the plan will fail?"

Crocodile sneered:

"This is just a minor episode. As long as the issue of 'dancing powder' is not resolved, the country will continue to be in turmoil and fall into chaos."

"It's just that I don't understand..."

At this moment, a golden hook instantly appeared on Robin's neck, and Crocodile's words were icy cold: "Nico Robin, why did you betray me?"

Robin raised his chin slightly: "Don't you trust me, Mr. 0?"

Crocodile spoke in a low voice, and every word he said was like breaking ice:

"For a person who is accustomed to betrayal, trust is nothing but a luxury."

"People like you don't deserve anyone's trust."

"Don't try to be clever. Have you forgotten who took the initiative to seek cooperation with me in the first place?"

Robin remained silent.

Crocodile let go of Robin and asked, "Has the unlucky duo not returned yet?"

"Well! If you want to give an order, it seems that you can only do it through Den Den Mushi. What do you say?" Robin's calm voice sounded.

Without the Unlucky Duo, there would be no [Command Strip], an eavesdropping-proof and efficient way of delivering messages.

Crocodile looked gloomy and issued a new order: "The [Utopia] plan must be advanced. Bring back all the senior agents outside!"

Hearing this, Robin reminded: "According to the intelligence, Navy [White Hunter] Smoker has inexplicably come to Alabasta."

"What?" Lao Sha looked confused.

"The World Government clearly trusts me as a Shichibukai! What is he doing here?"

It was this idiot's words that made Crocodile a little annoyed!

Smoker is different from the other guys. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a greenhorn.

Not only is he stupid, he is also a user of the power of nature's fruit.

He has strength but no brains, and as a navy officer he just acts recklessly. Lao Sha hates people like this who can't communicate the most. The key is that the two of them are allies in a sense.

After a moment of silence, Crocodile said, "I will handle Smoker's problem myself. This is a good opportunity to test the navy's attitude."

Seeing this, Robin handed over another piece of information:

"Boss, this information may be of interest to you. It is said that the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates is also on this island..."

Crocodile stood up suddenly, his eyes like swords piercing Robin: "Whitebeard!"

He gently scratched the scar on his face with the hook, and his voice showed fluctuations for the first time.

Back then, he once challenged the Four Emperors Whitebeard, and the thoughtless sword swung by that man using the Sounokime was like a nightmare that he could not get rid of.

Whitebeard's strength made him feel intimidated.

That setback made Crocodile question his own strength for the first time.

It is precisely because of this that he chose to seek greater power with the help of external forces. When he learned that Alabasta possessed the ancient weapon Pluto, he began to plan an elaborate conspiracy.

Crocodile was very confused at this time. Why was the situation in Alabasta suddenly out of his control?

His face was livid, and he spoke slowly, "Although I don't know why [Fire Fist] Ace came here, he is far inferior to that man."

Nico Robin smiled and said, "So, there's really no need to wait any longer? There have been too many surprises. What if they find out your ultimate goal..."

Lao Sha smiled confidently: "In a few days, Alabasta will be under my control. Even if it is discovered, what will happen? By then, I will have found out the whereabouts of Pluto. Who can be my opponent?"

"Whether it's the Fire Fist or the Navy, whoever dares to stop me this time will die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a momentum suddenly burst out from Crocodile, sweeping through the entire room like a storm, and Robin felt unprecedented pressure and oppression.

For the first time, Robin felt a sense of strangeness towards the man in front of him.

Crocodile looked up at Nico Robin and warned her:

"What I'm really worried about is you, my partner. I can feel your desire for that thing. Don't let me down, Nico Robin."

After hearing this, Robin felt bitter. Maybe she was really courting disaster this time, but she had never been so close to her dream.

Son of the devil, give up the pathetic mercy in your heart!
