Uehara was very happy.
Because Crocodile followed his plan, and there was no accident in the middle. Crocodile just went straight into the trap he set up.
Now...
Finally, it was time to settle the accounts!
"..."
Crocodile's expression was obviously not very happy.
Because originally, when Crocodile came to this deserted island. He intended to show the marine a little bit of color and let them know that Crocodile was not easy to provoke... But now that he came to this island. It seemed that he had fallen into a trap!
Crocodile's expression gradually became gloomy, and he immediately asked Ichibi who was in his body, "Shukaku, what is going on?"
This Shukaku, how can it provide false information!
Shukaku laugh and said, "Hehehehe... Crocodile, how do I know? The person you should ask is sitting in front of you!"
"..."
Crocodile slowly raised his head and looked at the three people on the wooden table. Aokiji and Akainu, the two marine admirals were sitting on both sides, while Uehara was sitting on the main seat...
This seating arrangement was a bit ridiculous.
"Hmph, it won't be a real admiral!"
Crocodile's eyes narrowed slightly. He knew that he might not be able to escape, but he asked the person he was most familiar with, "Hey, Uehara, what's going on? Why are you and the marine admiral here?"
"We are waiting for you..."
Uehara looked at Crocodile with a smile and spread his palm, "Sit down Captain, I have a lot to tell you... Robin should have driven the ship away now, and you can't run away no matter what!"
"..."
Crocodile's face was a little ugly. He asked word by word, "Nico Robin betrayed me and sold me with you?"
"No, Captain."
Uehara patted the table, tilted his head, and said with a smile, "This is actually a very long story. Don't worry, let's sit down and talk slowly..."
"Hmph..."
Crocodile snorted and sat on the last seat on the wooden table. His eyes flashed slightly and he looked at the two marine admirals.
Uehara looked at Crocodile and squinted his eyes. He smiled and said, "First of all, let me introduce myself to Captain... I have many identities, so where should I start..."
"Identity... Many..."
Crocodile stared at Uehara and said in a gloomy voice, "It seems that you have a corresponding connection with the marine... So you are also a traitor!"
"That said..."
Uehara shook his head and slowly closed his palm. The corner of his mouth slightly curved, revealing a meaningful smile, "In fact, there is one thing that you guessed wrong. All the people who betrayed you... have always been my people!"
Uehara chuckled and continued, "Kisame, Deidara, Sasori, Nico Robin, all of them are my subordinates... As for those who are not loyal to me in the Baroque Works. I have already sent people to clean them up!"
Uehara looked at Crocodile's extremely wonderful face. His smile became more and more intense, "The Baroque Works have long been emptied by me! Of course, this is understandable for you, because you never care about the Baroque Works..."
"Bastard..."
Crocodile couldn't help but bite his teeth.
Although he didn't care about the Baroque Works as Uehara said. This didn't mean that Crocodile liked to be played with!
This bastard...
Uehara continued slowly, "Do you think you are secretly controlling everything?
In fact, everything is under my control... Unfortunately, it is too difficult to get your trust, so I can only think of another way."
Uehara stretched out his finger and pointed to Crocodile, "That is to put Shukaku in your body. It is my pet... How does it feel? Is its strength good?"
"..."
Crocodile's face changed greatly!
Now, Shukaku was his biggest reliance, and it was precisely because Shukaku was willing to lend him his strength that Crocodile dared to be unbridled!
Crocodile just felt that there was something wrong with Shukaku...
But now that he heard Uehara personally admit that Shukaku was his arrangement, it still made Crocodile feel full of disbelief. In this case, wouldn't his life always be in the hands of Uehara?
Crocodile slowly clenched his fingers and said in a low voice, "Then what is the purpose of you lurking around me?"
"It's fun."
Uehara's words made Crocodile's forehead jump!
What the hell was this reason!
Just for fun, you want to torment him?
"In fact, I don't want to."
Uehara sighed and whispered, "Originally, I just wanted to stay in Baroque Works and serve Mr. Crocodile wholeheartedly. When I have nothing to do, I will help you attack Marineford, attack Mary Geoise, kill a few Celestial Dragons, and so on..."
"..."
Crocodile's expression was subtle.
What the hell was this?
Which boss in the world dares to make you work for him like this?
Should he be glad that the Baroque Company was disbanded early? If Uehara, this bastard, really did this. He would be hunted by the Marine and World Government all over the world!
Uehara sighed and said, "It's a pity... Captain Crocodile... You are very reluctant for me to be promoted..."
Uehara looked at Crocodile and said with a bitter face, "Do you know how serious the consequences will be if you don't give a hardworking employee a promotion and a salary raise? This hardworking employee will directly destroy your company!"
"... Shut up!"
Crocodile's face was ugly, he stared at Uehara and said, "For an employee like you, whoever recruits you will be unlucky..."
"No, no, no, you are wrong..."
Uehara waved his hand and whispered, "My previous boss was very lucky. After his company went bankrupt, he got a stable and long-term job from me..."
"..."
The expressions of the other people present were subtle. Your previous boss went bankrupt and became your employee. Was this still considered good luck?
That unlucky boss...
How bad was he?
Aokiji and Akainu's eyes slowly fell on Crocodile. Crocodile should be the unlucky boss, right?
"Just say it!"
Crocodile looked at Uehara and said, "Uehara, who are you? What is your purpose in following me?"
"Well, I am just an ordinary god!"
Uehara shook his head and sighed. He continued, "The purpose of following you is actually just to see your current expression..."
"..."
Crocodile was full of question marks.
Aokiji and Akainu were full of black lines.
What kind of demon language was this!
Uehara chuckled and explained, "Mr. Crocodile, in fact, your luck is good. There are a total of seven Shichibukai. I picked and chose you in the end and regarded you as a candidate to carry the blame...
Unfortunately, you are really too bad. You only want to stay in Alabasta. When can you become the Pirate King? You are a man who wants to become the Pirate King. How can you stay in Alabasta and only be a Shichibukai!
So I secretly controlled the Baroque Works and let others do bad things in the sea. I provoked countless powerful enemies for Baroque Works!
Until I forced the marines to make up their minds about Baroque Works, then I secretly colluded with the marines and betrayed you!"
"..."
Crocodile's expression became more and more ugly.
Damn it.
This guy really has the nerve to say it!
Baroque Works have always been very low-key. Ever since they recruited Uehara and his group, the entire Baroque Works has suddenly become very popular...
It looks as if it was irreconcilable with the entire world...
It directly forced him, the boss behind the Baroque Works, to the point that he did not dare to show himself...
However, Uehara, who had caused Baroque Works to fall into such a dangerous situation, had escaped and colluded with the marines. He had directly betrayed him and made him take all the blame!
Confusingly he had directly taken all the blame!
Uehara such a bastard!
Uehara rubbed his forehead, smiled at Crocodile, and continued to say, "But I soon realized that your strength is too weak.
You can't even play a seemingly even battle with Admiral Aokiji, so I gave you Shukaku..."
Uehara picked up the juice on the table, took a sip, and continued, "From that moment on, everything of yours is in my hands..."
Uehara's face gradually showed a touch of regret, "I forced you to the sea. I originally wanted to go to the new world with you and let you provoke the Yonko(Four Emperors) in the new world. You will go all the way to the top of Impel Down or go directly to hell. Unfortunately, there was a little accident in the middle..."
"..."
Crocodile already didn't know what expression he had...
Impel Down!
What kind of climb was this? He hasn't heard of it for so many years!
Other people's captain said that he was going to climb to the top to become a Pirate King. This bastard let him go to the top of Impel Down or directly to hell...
Before saying these words, couldn't he think that what he said was humane?
Uehara looked at Crocodile and frowned, "Well? Captain Crocodile, shouldn't you ask me what accident happen at this time?"
"..."
Crocodile took a deep breath and said, "What accident?"
"I won't tell you."
Uehara's words almost choked Crocodile to death. He continued, "If you are willing to save me, I will still be your ship doctor... Unfortunately, you abandoned your companion!"
"Fortunately, I didn't come to save you..."
Crocodile gritted his teeth and said, "If I save you, I don't know how long I will be played by you like a puppet!"
"Alas..."
Uehara shook his head and sighed, "Mr. Crocodile, isn't that good? In fact, ignorance is also a blessing!"
"Bastard!"
Crocodile clenched his hand and said with a gloomy face, "What is the purpose of you doing all this to me?"
"I already said it."
Uehara raised his head and stared at Crocodile's face. He smiled and said, "I just want to see what kind of expression you will have when I destroy your plan and make your life like this..."
"Bastard!"
Crocodile felt that his brain was blank.
The endless anger instantly drowned his reason. He just wanted to directly suck up all the water in Uehara's body in front of him and turn him into a mummy!
Uehara looked at Crocodile's gloomy and slightly ferocious face and nodded with satisfaction, "Well, this expression is really wonderful. I feel quite satisfied... Mr. Aokiji, Mr. Akainu, what do you two think?"
"..."
Aokiji and Akainu were silent.
The two marines admirals had the same thoughts at this moment. They only had one thought.
This guy, Uehara Naraku... was really not human.
