......

And at the same time.

Alabasta, the lair of Sand Crocodile Crocodile, Rainland.

Crocodile, with his slicked back hair and a long horizontal scar on his face, had just hung up a phone call bug and snorted, with dissatisfaction written all over his tough face.

"Is it a liaison with the World Government?"

Next to him, a black-haired intellectual beauty glanced at him: "Speaking of which, Mr. 0, you are still from the Shichibukai. Did they ask you to do something?"

"The World Government wants to summon the Shichibukai to encircle and suppress Natsuhiko." Crocodile did not hide anything and said directly: "But they think too well. Although the World Government has the right to summon us, the Shichibukai, we are not their subordinates. !”

"What good will it do to us to fight Xia Yan to the death?"

"They don't have a single expert in their navy, so they want us to contribute?"

"Oh, don't even think about it!"

Crocodile sneered. The dream of the World Government is so sweet. Do you really think that these big pirates are the dogs of the World Government!

Xia Yan is a ruthless character who just defeated Qing Zhi!

Crocodile has no intention of working for the government!

Nicole's posthumous title? Gao?

After getting Crocodile's 4.9 affirmation, she narrowed her eyes slightly: "It seems that the Navy doesn't expect you to really be able to deal with the God Killer...most likely it wants to use the hands of the Shichibukai to test Natsuhiko. "

"Even the Shichibukai were used as cannon fodder to test Xia Yan..."

"It seems that General Qingzhi was defeated miserably. The World Government still doesn't dare to take action."

"I'm becoming more and more curious about the Godslayer."

This man is really mysterious.

Crocodile also nodded slightly, acknowledging Robin's words.

"But we are not fools, and of course we have no intention of working for the World Government." Crocodile said calmly: "I guess the other Shichibukai have also received contact from the World Government at this time, but I think maybe one is willing to obey the World Government's orders No one."

The Shichibukai are different from ordinary pirates. Although they are nominally part of the World Government, they occasionally work for the World Government due to transactions with the World Government.

But from a certain point of view, it is not that they need the name of Shichibukai, but that the World Government needs them as Shichibukai to deter other big pirates!

Do you want the Shichibukai to be obedient?

Just relying on a few clichés and cliches is not enough!

"Don't worry about Xia Yan! Let's just do our thing well!" Crocodile said directly: "Nico Robin, I will capture Hades and let you see the text of history."

"Xia Yan and so on have nothing to do with us!"

Nico Robin nodded slightly.

"Yes, whatever Xia Yan does has nothing to do with us."

Chapter 285 The confident Crocodile

Alabasta, rainy land.

The dream city of Alabasta is the only capital that has not been affected by drought and civil strife. The largest casino in the kingdom, the "Rain Feast", is here, and it can be described as extremely prosperous.

At this time, Xia Yan and his party were setting up the boat and arrived at Crocodile's base camp.

There was a misty drizzle in the sky, very little and very weak.

But in the arid desert country of Alabasta, it is an event that is enough to arouse cheers from residents in other regions!

However, the rain area is different from other areas. Although the rainfall here is not heavy compared with normal cities, this kind of light rain can still be seen occasionally.

The residents here did not show any joy at the light rain. However, many local residents looked at the outsiders with expressions of joy on their faces due to this level of light rain. They showed the common gestures of the people of the Magic City and the Imperial Capital and pointed. Pointed.

"Isn't it just a little rain? Outsiders just don't know."

"That's right, this is a rainy land, not another remote place!"

"With Lord Crocodile's protection, Rainland is not only the safest city in Alabasta, but also the most prosperous city!"

"That's right! Cheers to Lord Crocodile!"

When Xia Yan and others arrived, they saw this scene.

Feeling the sky, Xia Yan turned his head and looked at Weiwei: "Krokdal's prestige is really not small. No wonder he wants to seize your country."

Weiwei was silent for a moment and said: "He is the King of the Shichibukai, and he sometimes conquers invading pirates. Until I find out the truth, he has always been the hero of Alabasta!"

Although Alabasta's national power is not weak, its army also has certain strength.

But even though King Kobra had not yet been exposed to various scandals, he was still a virtuous king who was highly praised by people. When facing the pirates of the Age of Discovery, he was at a disadvantage.

After Crocodile arrived, he protected the citizens of Alabasta very well with the powerful strength of the Shichibukai and his great reputation.

Occasionally, he would not hesitate to take action against pirates who came to offend them.

Of course he is called a hero!

Of course, as to whether the 27 pirates defeated by Crocodile were real pirates or specially hired actors, that is another matter.

"Yudi was originally just a city that was not poor, but not outstanding." Weiwei said softly: "Since Crocodile came, the pirates were repelled, there was steady rainfall, and it developed naturally. "

"People here admire Crocodile very much."

"So if we want to get rid of Crocodile, it's best to hide our presence, otherwise our whereabouts will be discovered by him soon."

As she spoke, she looked at Xia Yan and others. The implication was that everyone should change into local clothes and not be too conspicuous.

"The local clothes are not bad." Xia Yan touched his chin and raised the corners of his mouth.

The national costumes of Alabasta are close to the Arabian style of Xia Yan's previous life. They are mainly 'robes', but they are extraordinarily tight, like dancing skirts, and have unique charm.

Coupled with some gold chain embellishments, it is even more unique.

"But Weiwei, I'm curious about something." Xia Yan said with a smile: "Your Alabasta has been dry all year round, so the rainy land should be the same, right?"

"Maybe it's better than other places, but it's not much better."

"Have you ever thought that there are some problems with the rainfall here?"

As he spoke, he raised his head slightly and looked at the sky.

"What can you ask about the rain - dancing powder?!" Weiwei said subconsciously, and then suddenly woke up: "You mean Crocodile used dancing powder?"

Dancing powder is also known as "the powder that calls the rain", and its appearance is a kind of green powder.

This was invented a long time ago in a country where it doesn't rain. It can produce mist-like smoke floating in the air, which combines with water vapor in the air to form artificial rainfall.

The reason why it is called "Dancing Powder" is that people often dance happily to celebrate when it rains, hence the name.

But it has a drawback, that is, forcibly condensing water vapor in the air will take away all the moisture in the sky, causing countries and regions downwind to be unable to receive precipitation, leading to dryness.

The reason why King Kobra changed from a wise king full of prestige to a faint king who has caused a national uprising is because of dancing fans!

In the long-term drought in Alabasta, it rained for a long time in Albana, the royal capital where he was located. At first, people thought this was a gift from God to this wise king, but it turned out that 'he' used dancing powder .

It immediately caused a civil uprising and made people question the character of this wise king, which led to the current civil strife.

Otherwise, if it is just a long-term drought and people's lives are difficult, Kobra's reputation accumulated over the years may not cause such a large-scale riot...

"Your Excellency Xia Yan, what did you see?" Alabasta's loyal servant Ikarem, who followed Vivi, couldn't help but ask.

Xia Yan's pupils turned pure white - white eyes, open!

"There is a lot of dust in the air, floating above the rainy ground, and the source of this dust..." Xia Yan lowered his gaze slightly and strode over.

Weiwei and others immediately followed.

Soon, several people came to a hidden chimney. The flames had been extinguished, but they could still see the burning components of something...

"I'm a dancing fan. Is this how the rain in the rainy land comes from?" Weiwei's expression changed slightly.

Looking at the rainy areas in Alabasta, it is indeed considered to have more rainfall.

But it does not mean that it will not suffer from drought - after all, the entire country of Alabasta is a desert country. Where can there be land with abundant water and grass?

Thinking about it carefully, the rainy land in previous years can only be said to be relatively moist, but it seems that it was not until Crocodile came that it completely turned into a so-called 'rainy land'.

"Why didn't I think of that? There has been no drought in the rainy land for so long. It's obviously not normal!" Weiwei looked ugly and fell to her knees.

Um, no, you should have noticed it earlier!

When a normal person discovers that the king's throne is unstable, shouldn't he immediately look for people who may benefit from it?

The year-round rainfall here in Yudi is not scientific at all. As long as you look for it, it will suddenly become very conspicuous...

Do you still need Undercover Baroque Works?

It can be investigated directly and easily!

Nami and the others twitched their mouths, looking speechless.

Xia Yan was helpless. He still remembered that in the original work, although Weiwei had never seen MR.2, everyone knew that MR.2 was a "tall ballet dancer who spoke in a feminine tone and liked to wear a swan coat."

As a result, it was not until the crew of MR.2 called out to him that Weiwei suddenly woke up...

This girl, who looks dignified and elegant, and looks like a smart person, is far more reckless than imagined!

Weiwei looked ugly. She knew very well that her father, Kobra, did not use any dancing powder, and he was slandered.

But it triggered a civil uprising.

And Crocodile also used dancing powder, but was recognized by Rainland?

This is really...

How ironic!

Weiwei took a deep breath: "No matter what, Xia Yan, as long as the problem in Alabasta is solved, I will marry you... Do you have any ideas?"

She said, looking over.

"Simple." Xia Yan was not polite: "The Baroque Works is nothing more than a skin problem, and the rebels are even less important."

"After solving Crocodile, your father can solve the remaining problems by himself."
