Cobra leaned back and sighed.
"The Rumble-Rumble Fruit that disappeared for hundreds of years was actually eaten by you, my brother.
It seems that you are destined to have a bright future in the marine."
"Haha, it's okay."
Luffy laughed dryly. He wanted to tell Cobra that even if he was not a natural ability user, he would still have a bright future with his grandfather Garp's relationship.
Hina secretly focused her eyes on the boy, thinking of the strength he showed that day.
Suddenly, an idea emerged in her mind.
Perhaps it won't be long before this boy will be famous all over the world, and she can be his follower and accompany him to see the scenery at the top of the world.
Back to the topic, Luffy repeated his question and asked Cobra about Crocodile's whereabouts.
This time, Cobra, who had a clear idea in his mind, did not hide it and told Luffy all the information about Crocodile's whereabouts.
After that, the two talked about some more. After some polite words, Luffy left.
Cobra arranged a separate guest room for them, and it would be tomorrow if they wanted to find Crocodile.
After a dreamless night, Luffy got up the next day and dressed and washed himself with renewed energy.
Cobra even sent a maid to serve him. Luffy was not a spoiled young master, and his grandfather had never arranged these for him since he was a child.
However, looking at the pitiful little maid holding a towel in her hand, he softened his heart.
Sitting on the chair, enjoying the gentle face-wiping service of the little maid, Luffy did not forget to excuse himself in his heart:
'I am not addicted to pleasure; I am just afraid that this simple girl will not complete the task and be punished.
That's why I have to commit to this damn feudalism!'
"Sir, please stand up and let me change your clothes for you."
Hearing the soft voice of the little maid, Luffy's thoughts stagnated. He stood up honestly and thought:
In fact, Cobra is quite open-minded.
Maybe this girl's family is in trouble, with a gambler father, an alcoholic mother, etc.
That's why she has no choice but to come out to work early.
After a surge of thoughts, he successfully found a perfect excuse to convince himself.
Then he enjoyed it more comfortably, as if he would be guilty if he didn't do it.
After more than half an hour of dawdling, Luffy came to the dining room to eat in full dress.
Looking around, Cobra, Ain, and Hina were not there.
Probably followed the advice and took refuge in a secret room in the palace early.
Only the guerrilla's squad were left in the dining room, and Cook and Binz were naturally among them.
Seeing Luffy coming, everyone greeted him.
Luffy was not polite, and after responding a few words, he found a seat and sat down.
Cook was very considerate and placed several large plates of barbecue on the table in front of him like offering treasures.
Glancing at him with satisfaction and nodding at him, Luffy picked up his knife and fork and asked:
"Is everything arranged? Is there any news from Gavin?"
Cook tapped his chest proudly, gave a thumbs up and said proudly:
"Don't worry, Captain, everything has been arranged.
the King's Army will act with us later. Once we take action, Gavin will also receive the message and start to act simultaneously in the Rainbase."
Hearing this, Luffy, who was busy competing for the barbecue, hummed vaguely, and there was no further action.
Cook did not disturb him and concentrated on finishing his breakfast.
After the meal, Luffy wiped his mouth with a tissue with satisfaction and stood up.
At the same time, everyone who had been impatient for a long time stood up in unison, looking at him with fiery eyes.
Luffy no longer hesitated, waved his hand and ordered loudly:
"Guerrillas, let's go!"
Bemon is one of the Million of Baroque Works, and is a direct subordinate of the frontier agent Mr. 10.
Just a few days ago, he received an order to rush to the capital with his men.
These days, he has been searching for Nico Robin day and night.
Or the whereabouts of Miss All Sunday.
Holding a cigarette, Bemon came to a house with an unhappy look and knocked hard on the door.
Knock knock knock!
"Open the door!"
With a howl, Bemon withdrew his hand and looked around impatiently.
Not long after, the door handle turned slightly, and a white-haired old woman carefully poked her head out.
"Ahem, who are you? Who are you looking for?...Cough cough cough..."
The old woman seemed to be in poor health. She started coughing violently after she said a few words.
Bemon stepped back cautiously, extinguished the cigarette and threw it away, and quickly took out a handkerchief to cover his mouth and nose.
'Damn old woman, she keeps coughing. Is she infected with an infectious disease?'
Cursing in his heart, Bemon did not dare to step forward for a while, so he had to explain from a few meters away:
"We are bounty hunters hired by Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Recently, some pirates have sneaked into the capital, and we are hired to search for them!"
After saying this, he did not want to waste any more time talking to this dying old woman, and waved his hand to let his soldiers rush in to search.
The leading member of the Baroque Works strode forward, with a fierce look on his face, as if he was about to push the old woman down.
At this time, a gunshot rang out, and a bullet hit the man's feet, scaring him so much that he shivered and almost peed his pants.
"Who?!"
Bemon reacted quickly, and immediately took out a pistol from his waist and looked in the direction of the gunshot.
Then his eyes widened, and he never thought it would be these guys.
A team of king's soldiers appeared from nowhere, lined up neatly and pointed their guns at them, and one of them had gunpowder coming out of the muzzle.
"The King's Army?!"
Bemon was shocked and took a few steps back.
But when he thought of the instructions from the organization, he forced himself to stop the fear in his heart and shouted fiercely:
"You bastard, do you know what you are doing?
We are a bounty hunter organization hired by the Kingdom Heroes and the world government's legal pirate.
We are your people who are looking for the wanted criminal Nico Robin with you.
What do you mean by shooting at us? I will report you to the top brass of the Royal Army!"
The enemy's sophistry was not taken seriously by the commander of the Royal Army.
He saw that the old woman had closed the door in fear and hid in the house, so he didn't care anymore.
He raised the crescent shovel and ordered loudly:
"Shoot, kill these rebels, for Alabasta!"
As soon as the words fell, a total of 20 muskets in the front and back rows opened fire at the same time.
Bemon brought only 7 or 8 people, and there was nowhere to hide on the street.
In order to find prevent someone to serve as a human shield, the residents of the capital had received orders from the king's army a few days ago to hide at home and not go out.
At this moment, Bemon finally reacted.
This was not an order to reduce the difficulty of the search, but a conspiracy set up by the king's army to better eliminate them and not harm civilians.
It's a pity that it's too late to find out now.
Under the volley of fire from 20 guns, Bemon and his men only had time to let out a wail before they died.
The commander glanced at the bodies of several people expressionlessly, waved his hand and immediately led his men to another location. At the same time, fierce gunshots and shouting were heard from other parts of the royal capital.
Because it was the royal army that launched the sneak attack, the members of the Baroque Works suffered heavy losses at once.
They could only report the news and ask for help.
In the end, all the news was gathered in Crocodile's hands.
Hearing the requests for help, Crocodile knew that he was being fooled.
"Ah——! Cobra! Nico Robin! I will kill you!"
In the center of the street, with Crocodile's impotent rage. The sky was full of yellow sand, sweeping around, and it was about to swallow up several streets.
At this time, dark clouds were pressing in the sky.
A Lightning bolt fell from the sky and fell directly towards Crocodile.
Although he was extremely angry at this time, Crocodile had not completely lost his mind.
At the moment of the attack, he immediately evaded with his elementalization. He was about to avoid this straight attack, but who knew that the Lightning turned a corner in the air and fell on his head again.
After hitting the yellow sand that Crocodile had turned into, the lightning instantly expanded and turned into a ball, releasing an ultra-high voltage current.
The strong current passed through the air and produced high-temperature plasma.
Immediately, Crocodile was numbed. The ball lightning only lasted for more than ten seconds and dissipated.
Luffy's figure appeared, turned his head to look to the other side, and exclaimed:
"Tsk, your reaction is quite fast, it's a little crooked."
While he was talking, the yellow sand condensed into a human shape again.
The embarrassed Crocodile appeared where he was looking.
At this time, Crocodile no longer had the stern and cold look before.
His whole body was burnt black, his clothes were tattered, and what was even more interesting was that the big back hair he had worked so hard to take care of was now also electrocuted into a stylish afro.
Seeing him like this, Luffy laughed heartlessly.
"Hahaha, Crocodile, you look pretty good in this look."
Crocodile said with a gloomy face, took off his tattered cashmere cloak, and asked:
"Marine! Why are you attacking me?!"
"Hehe." After two dry laughs, Luffy pouted and sneered:
"Are you still going to play dumb now? You know best what you have done.
Or do you think that stalling for time will help? Do you really think I can't see it?!"
After he finished speaking, with a flash of lightning, Luffy rushed in front of Crocodile and cut off the poison blade under his left arm with his sword.
Although Luffy's observation Haki is not enough to predict the future.
But Crocodile made small movements in front of him, but he couldn't escape his perception at all.
Bastard!
Cursing silently, Crocodile's intact right hand turned into quicksand and grabbed Luffy.
But lightning is not so easy to catch.
When he just made a move, Luffy's elementalization went around behind him and quickly launched an attack.
"Finger gun!"
Puff!
The finger wrapped in armament haki easily pierced Crocodile's back, leaving a trace of blood.
Luffy was stunned after the successful attack, and retreated quickly and vigilantly, leaving a long distance.
Then, he looked at his bloody finger and tilted his head blankly.
"Huh? It hit him right away?"
He was completely stunned. He just wanted to make a feint, and the real killer move was still to come.
But he never expected that Crocodile couldn't even dodge his tentative attack.
He thought Crocodile was going to trade injuries for injuries and give him a big one, so he was so scared that he quickly retreated to create some distance.
Crocodile, who was hit hard on the back, staggered for two steps before he could barely stabilize his body.
Feeling his numb limbs, his heart sank to the bottom.
Luffy is so fast, he can't keep up with this speed, not to mention the burden brought to him by this paralyzed body.
'If this goes on, I will be the only one who loses.'
With a flash of thought, Crocodile looked back at Luffy fiercely, turned around. He fled madly with the yellow sand all over the sky.
Luffy, who thought he had some new tricks, quickly turned on his observation Haki to the maximum. But when he sensed that Crocodile was actually fleeing outside the royal capital, he was speechless.
'Damn, why did he run away? Was he afraid of my strength? Or does this guy have some tricks up his sleeve?'
Out of caution, he did not chase after him immediately.
Instead, he stood in place, stretched out his hand towards the sky, and stirred up a violent lightning that sank into the clouds.
The dark clouds that originally covered the sky spread out in all directions again.
At the same time, they were also drifting in the direction of Crocodile's escape.
After carefully sensing with his observation Haki, he confirmed that Crocodile had escaped from the range of the royal capital.
Luffy pressed down with his big hand and yelled:
"El Thor!!"
Unlike Enel in the original work who still needed the help of the Ark's Maxim.
As Luffy finished speaking, hundreds of Lightnings fell, instantly covering the large area where Crocodile was.
The fleeing Crocodile seemed to sense something. He looked up suddenly and saw a dazzling blue light.
The Shandora River area.
Even though they were dozens of miles apart, the marine here could also see the abnormal celestial phenomena in the direction of the royal capital.
Pointing at the el thor move that seemed to be destroying the world, Nami shouted excitedly:
"It's Luffy! There's a fight over there too!"
Unfortunately, no one could respond to her at this time.
Holding two swords, Zoro took care of the two people who were coming to him, then glanced at the river and reminded loudly:
"Another enemy is coming, Usopp, fire your cannon to prevent them from getting close.
you and Nami stay to guard the ship, I will go to stop them."
After kicking his opponent away, Sanji turned back and cursed angrily:
"Idiot, who allowed you to command me!"
But at this time, Zoro had already jumped off the ship and swam towards the enemy in the water.
Bang!
One person operated the cannon and sank a small ship.
Usopp took the time to come to the side of the ship and looked down, then his expression suddenly changed and he exclaimed:
"Oh no, Zoro is lost in the river, Sanji, go help him!"
"What? That idiot!"
After cursing, Sanji looked at the few remaining enemies on the warship and said to Nami:
"Miss Nami, be careful, I'll go help the green moss head."
After repelling a bounty hunter with a folding iron stick, Nami turned around and said:
"Well, you should be careful too."
Sanji nodded, and instantly jumped up more than ten meters high. Then he stepped on the air with his toes and aimed at Zoro who was circling the warship, and rushed down with a dark face. After grabbing him from the water, Sanji immediately scolded him angrily:
"You idiot, the enemy is right in front of you, how did you manage to swim around the warship?"
Zoro looked at the dozens of small boats in front of him, and then looked at the warships behind him.
His old face turned red, and he said angrily:
"Stop talking too much, take me there!"
Sanji:"Ah? You bastard green moss-head, don't you know how to say thank you to your benefactor?"
Zoro:"What nonsense are you talking about, curly-browed kappa, do you want to fight?"
Sanji:"Humph, I'll fight after I finish dealing with these guys."
Zoro:"Then let's see who kills the most."
Sanji:"That's exactly what I want!"
The two men looked at each other after reaching an agreement.
Zoro was about to rush onto the enemy ship to fight, but Sanji suddenly let go of his hand
"Idiot, swim slowly, I'll go first."
The suspended Zoro blinked his eyes, and then his face changed drastically.
"Bastard, give it to me...Gurgle Gurgle Gurgle..."
"Two idiots, they are still fighting each other at this time, I will kill them!"
On the warship, Nami was furious when she saw this scene.
Usopp quickly stopped her and persuaded her:
"Don't be impulsive. There are only two of us on this ship now. Don't forget what Captain Luffy told you!"
Just as he finished speaking, a member of Baroque climbed onto the ship from the rope ladder.
When he saw them, he shouted and rushed towards them quickly.
"Damn marine, go to hell!"
Seeing the enemy coming, Usopp quickly took out his slingshot and prepared to shoot.
But suddenly a gunshot rang out beside him, and the bounty hunter who rushed towards the two of them fell straight down.
Holding the exquisite pistol Luffy gave her, Nami ordered with a frosty face:
"Usopp, fire at full speed, I'll take care of the enemies boarding the ship."
"Yes, sir!" Usopp, who was shocked by her momentum, saluted quickly.
By the time he reacted, Nami had already rushed towards the enemy on the ship with a pistol in one hand and a stick in the other.
'Even Nami has gone up, so I can't fall behind.'
