Who made him the Pirate King?.

Chapter 159 Are you sweating profusely, Lao Sha? (Three more chapters, 9k, please subscribe!)

Crocodile was born in the Valley of the Gods in the West Sea!

This is a bold assumption made by Storm based on all the intelligence information currently available.

Crocodile just showed his undisguised hatred towards Buckingham Stussy and the Rocks Pirates.

Storm saw everything that Lao Sha did.

The only people who could develop a hostile relationship with the Rocks Pirates that have disappeared for decades, and even keep thinking about them, are probably the residents of God Valley.

In the year 1486 of the Haiyuan calendar, the Valley of God incident broke out.

The Celestial Dragons chose this island named "Valley of the Gods" and decided to launch the "Aboriginal Hunting Competition" on the island.

The world nobles planned to kill more than 100,000 indigenous people in the Valley of the Gods within three weeks, including the poor slaves who were captured and sent to the Valley of the Gods.

The Rocks Pirates arrived upon hearing the news, followed closely by the Roger Pirates, and then Vice Admiral Garp also arrived...

Many powerful sea warriors gathered in the Valley of Gods.

finally.

Roger teamed up with Garp to defeat Rocks.

However, of the more than 100,000 innocent civilians and slaves who originally lived in the Valley of Gods, only about 500 survived.

There is no one in a hundred!

And after the Valley of the Gods incident ended.

It's not just the World Government that forcibly covered up the truth of this incident.

Even the island of God's Valley itself completely disappeared within the scope of the West Sea...

If Crocodile was a native of the Valley of the Gods.

Then many doubts about him can be explained.

For example, why does Crocodile hate the Rocks Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates so much...

For example, why would Sand Crocodile dream of building a military state that is so powerful that it is unmatched and even surpasses the World Government...

For example, why did Crocodile know the intelligence of ancient weapons that ordinary people could not access, and even directly targeted Alabasta...

For example, why would the Shemale King Ivankov have a small handle on Crocodile...

After all, Ivankov was also a witness to the Valley of the Gods incident!
It is also because of the demon king Ivankov.

Storm believes that Crocodile's gender can be switched between "male" and "female" at will.

Who allowed the [Paramatic Hormone Fruit] to change a person's gender at will?
As for the "prince" or "princess"...

That wasn't something Storm said casually.

The height of Crocodile's dream is here.

Build a powerful force, search for ancient weapons, create a military state, and build your dream utopia...

This is a "dream" that requires a certain amount of "insight" to achieve.

If Crocodile was just an ordinary resident of God Valley, accidentally survived the God Valley incident, and then dreamed of restoring his homeland... it would not be completely impossible.

It’s just that the probability of the latter is relatively small.

In response to Storm's last few questions, Crocodile said nothing, but cold sweat continued to ooze out of his forehead, and even his back was completely wet with sweat.

"Ivankov..."

Crocodile suddenly said this name.

"What did he tell you..."

"It seems that there is nothing wrong with my guess."

Storm smiled slightly, then said frankly.

“In fact, I only know Ivankov, and he has never talked to me about topics related to you.

“Also, one more thing, I know Bartholomew Bear.

"You may not remember the name, but you should know the [Meat Ball Fruit], right?"

[Meatball Fruit]!
Crocodile fell silent.

Storm is indeed right.

He did have a vivid memory of this parahuman devil fruit.

More than 30 years ago, the "Aboriginal Hunting Competition" took place in the Valley of the Gods.

The "competition prizes" prepared by the World Government for the Celestial Dragons include two rare and powerful Devil Fruits!
[Paradox-type Meatball Fruit]!
[Animal system·Fish-Fish Fruit·Mythical beast·Blue dragon form]!
It was because Big Bear ate the [Meat-Ball Fruit] during the chaos that he was able to use the power of the [Meat-Ball Fruit] to help five hundred people escape from the Valley of the Gods.

Otherwise, the death toll in the Valley of Gods will continue to increase!

"It seems that you really haven't forgotten the [Pussy-Eat-Gallop Fruit], Old Sand."

Storm looked at Crocodile's expression carefully, not missing any change in his expression.

"So you really are a native of the Valley of the Gods?"

"……boring."

Crocodile just squeezed out these two words from between his teeth.

Then he turned and left without even looking at Storm.

What White Dragon, what Cross Guild, what Edward Weibel...

At this moment, Crocodile forgot all about it.

What he wants to do most now is to leave this Golden Island, leave the East China Sea, and return to Alabasta!
Storm looked at Crocodile's back as he left and spoke in a casual manner.

"The Rocks Pirates have been destroyed..."

"..."

"The Valley of Gods was also completely destroyed..."

"..."

“This is fake.”

"!"

Crocodile paused, turned around and looked at Storm with an extremely complicated expression: anger, resentment, shock, expectation, fear...all kinds of emotions appeared on his face at the same time.

"what are you saying?"

"Ah? What did you say?"

"Don't play dumb with me, Hakuryuu!"

Crocodile strode over and stretched out his right hand towards Storm, trying to grab the latter's collar.

With a light tap, Storm opened Crocodile's right palm.

"Talk nicely and don't touch me." "What did you just say about God Valley?"

"Intelligence information, one for one."

Storm said calmly.

“I’ll ask you first, then you ask me.

"First of all, are you a native of the Valley of the Gods?"

"……Yes!"

Crocodile clenched his right fist, then loosened it weakly.

"What happened to the Valley of the Gods?"

“Although the Valley of the Gods has completely disappeared in the West Sea, it has not been completely destroyed.”

Storm gave a half-answer and then continued asking.

"Where did you get the news about the ancient weapon [Pluto]?"

"Locks D. Gibeck!"

Crocodile spat out a name and asked impatiently.

"Where is the Valley of the Gods?"

"paradise."

Storm also gave a two-word answer.

Followed by.

Storm and Crocodile stared at each other.

In the end, Crocodile couldn't help but ask.

"Hurry up! Is there anything else you want to ask?"

"No, I'm not really interested in you, so why would I have so many questions?"

Storm spread his hands and spoke honestly.

"Although I have one more question...

“But I think that question, if asked, might affect my opinion of you.

"So Lao Sha, let's stop here!"

The last question Storm wanted to ask but didn't want to ask was -

Is Crocodile a man or a woman?

Trivia.

Although Crocodile had a slicked-back hair and a thick cigar in his mouth, he looked like a leader of an evil party.

But he can ride a camel called "Eyelash" in Alabasta that only women are allowed to ride... (not a manga/anime, but a character song cover, and some hints)
So Storm feels that there is really a possibility that Crocodile is a "transgender"!

But if Lao Sha became a woman...

Storm always felt something was strange, so he simply stopped asking.

"You bastard!"

Crocodile was so angry that he almost wanted to cut Storm into pieces with his "Desert Greatsword".

People who only speak half of their sentences really deserve to die!
Where is the Valley of the Gods in Paradise! ?

Crocodile took several deep breaths and finally suppressed the angry emotion in his heart.

In any case, he obtained some very valuable intelligence.

As long as the Valley of the Gods is in Paradise.

Then the agents of Baroque Studios can find its location!

Crocodile decided not to waste any more time with that bastard White Dragon.

He was about to turn around when he suddenly seemed to remember something and uttered the last words.

"The two giants who were in the small garden before, and their two subordinates on the Judicial Island, disappeared into the Devil's Triangle, which is the territory of Moonlight Moriah!"

After saying this, Crocodile no longer hesitated and turned around and left.

"The red ghost Buluoji and the blue ghost Dongli have entered the Devil's Triangle?"

Storm's brows furrowed slightly.

He thought about the strength of Gekko Moriah, and then thought about the level of the red demon Broki and the blue demon Touri.

"There shouldn't be any problems, right?"

Storm lured the red demon Broki and the blue demon Dongli out of the small garden because he felt that the two giants had quite a strong level of strength.

Moreover, the red demon Broki and the blue demon Touri are both born in Elbaf, which is known as the "world's most powerful country".

Whether from the perspective of "oneself" or from the perspective of "power".

The red demon Broki and the blue demon Dongli can both be considered experts.

But the intelligence information provided by Crocodile made Storm very concerned.

Could it be that the Red Demon and the Blue Demon had capsized in the terrifying brig?

Storm thought about it for a while, and then stopped worrying about this little problem.

Because he had already made an action plan to go to the Terror Bark.

After we get to the Thriller Bark, we can almost set off to the New World...

In fact.

If it weren't for the sudden news about Edward Weibel.

Storm has now set out for the Terror Bark.

But now.

There is one last issue to deal with.

Storm watched Crocodile's Baroque Gustav sail away from the waters near the Golden Island.

He formed a blue-eyes white dragon, flew high into the sky, and then took out a Den Den Mushi.

"Moshimoshi... General Aokiji... Can you help me contact... Mr. Zephyr?"
