The person is wearing a straw hat, and starts with the power of words!

Upon hearing this title,

Sima Di knew that Kou Sha was Mr. 2 in disguise, and immediately nodded indifferently.

"I've dealt with the ambush. Let's go."

"Alright, as expected of the boss! I'll get right to it..."

"Wait a minute, tell Mr. 1 to go to the north of the city. I've saved the Straw Hat Pirates' swordsman for him."

"what?"

"Ok?"

"Yes!"

then,

When the army set off, Mr. 1 broke away from the main force and headed alone towards the north of the city.

even,

He was also touched by his boss's "thoughtfulness." It was a disgrace for him, who called himself the "swordsman nemesis," that he had failed to kill the swordsman last time!

The rebels marched straight in, crossing the city gates, the city walls, and the outer walls of the royal palace.

Finally, they met with 400,000 shirtless royal soldiers in the giant square.

The rebels, who were prepared to fight to the death, were stunned when they saw this formation!

Isn't the goal to fight to the death?

Why aren't they even properly equipped?

Mr.2 cast a questioning glance at Sima Di, wondering what to do now.

Sima Di gave him a look that suggested he would observe the situation.

Just as everyone was wondering,

Vivi's voice blared from loudspeakers throughout Albana.

"Fellow citizens, I am Princess Vivi."

"On behalf of Alabasta and the Neferutari royal family, I now surrender unconditionally! All our weapons are piled up at the foot of the steps; this is our show of sincerity!"

"So no matter what happens next, please, everyone, do not resort to violence!"

"Alabasta belongs to everyone. Bloodshed will only bring pleasure to the conspirators behind it, and only our families will suffer!"

The rebels were in an uproar!

"what?"

"The royal army... surrendered already?"

"But why?"

"Finally, I can survive!"

......

Mr. 2 was also stunned, and looked at "Crocodile" again.

Shouldn't we do something about this?

Sima Di shook his head again.

What can you do about this?

then......

Here comes the crazy move!

I saw......

There will be an extra update later to make up for yesterday's!

53. Zoro's iconic moment! Using magic to defeat magic!

While both the rebels and the royal army were in a state of confusion, Vivi began her persuasion journey.

From the initial "dancing powder was deliberately used by conspirators" to the point that, apart from the capital Albana, only the rainy region guarded by Crocodile still experienced rain.

Vivi posed a thought-provoking question!

"Since Albana has already used the dancing powder to plunder and wipe away the surrounding rainwater, why is there still rainwater in the rainy area?"

"If they are separated by a river, then why are Yuba and Airuma still experiencing drought?"

This is a question that no one had ever thought about before, but it is being emphasized now.

Yes!

Using dancing powder in Albania won't affect the other half of the country across the strait!

unless......

The abundant rainfall in Yudi is also brought by the dancing fans!

As the resident of the Rainlands, Crocodile...

"Guhahaha—" Sima Di, disguised as Crocodile, laughed loudly: "Princess Vivi, you're not going to say that I also use dance powder, are you? Stop hiding and showing your face, come out and speak!"

"Come out, come out!"

Vivi walked out from the edge of the square and stood in front of the King's Army, facing Crocodile on the steps.

"Isn't that right?" Vivi questioned, "Using dance fans to smear the royal family, you openly act as a hero to gain fame, while secretly forming the Baroque Works as an armed force, intending to launch a coup today to steal the throne and complete your plan to usurp the country!"

"Guhahaha—"

Crocodile laughed exaggeratedly, as if he had heard something extremely funny.

but......

Do you think I have no evidence?

Vivi pointed to one side of the square, and only then did everyone notice the giant curtain there.

As Vivi's coded message was conveyed,

The giant curtain projected an image of Crocodile making grand promises in the underground chamber.

"...The Ideal Land Project is more than halfway complete, only the final step is needed!"

"When the time comes, the king disguised as Mr. 2 will step down and pass the throne to me, and we will become the new royal family!"

"Everyone, let's conquer the world together!"

.....

Although the scene ended abruptly there, it was enough to say everything.

—In the world of One Piece, there is no such thing as "video editing." Den Den Mushi (snail phone) will only faithfully play the footage it has recorded.

Crocodile is now in a difficult position to defend himself!

Mr.2's eyes widened!

He was there at the time, so why doesn't he remember Crocodile saying that?

Mr. 2 tried to get confirmation from Crocodile, but the person next to him just stared at the video with a sullen face and showed no intention of communicating with him.

—You can't fake a Den Den Mushi (snail phone), but you can fake people and scenes!

Crocodile, aren't you good at framing people?

Sima Di then used his transformation technique to record the video and create evidence!

This is called using magic to fight magic.

And that's not all.

The screen turned,

It was Mr. 2, dressed in a swan costume, looking in the mirror and using his "Imitation Fruit" to switch between different faces, including those of King Cobra and the rebel leader Koza.

Needless to say,

This was also made by Sima Di.

Even Mr. 2 was dumbfounded, wondering when he had been secretly photographed.

At this time,

Vivi explained at the right moment: "The so-called Utopia Operation is to use the dancing powder incident to provoke conflict and provide weapons to the rebel army."

"Then we will use the image of heroes to gain the people's trust."

"Afterwards, the king was kidnapped, and Mr. 2, a senior agent who had eaten the Imitation Fruit, impersonated the king and destroyed the town, completely inciting conflict and causing the rebels and the royal army to fight each other. He then reaped the benefits."

"The source of all the calamities in Alabasta right now is the work of this so-called hero of Alabasta, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the pirate Crocodile!"
