I, a Celestial Dragon!

How about this, don’t you need the materials for Baoshu Adam?

After I disbanded the pirate group, I decided to retire to the beautiful and prosperous city of Alabasta.

My pirate ship from that time is now abandoned and parked in the museum I prepared for it.

And a large part of the hull of that ship was made from the precious tree Adam that I bought in the Seven Waters City!

Now, I have decided to officially give you my ship from that year. That number of Baoshu Adams should be able to meet your requirements.

So, Fire Fist Ace, I hope you can provide fresh water to the people here for free!!!"

At this point, Crocodile's heroic voice simply broke through the sky, and his words caused all the civilians who heard it to burst into waves of violent cheers.

People shouted Crocodile's name excitedly, then looked at Ace expectantly, waiting for Ace's decision.

On the other side, Ace was so moved that his eyes were filled with tears.

"Crocodile, you really are a good person!

I understand. I don't need to continue doing fresh water business!

From now on, all fresh water will be free, and all the gold on my ship will be returned to their original owners!"

At this point, Ace opened his arms fiercely, and as the fireball quickly expanded to a diameter of two hundred meters, two more equally huge fireballs appeared on the surrounding sea!

For a moment, the people waiting for the water vapor were in an uproar, and they immediately sped up their busy work of gathering fresh water!

And Crocodile.

He gritted his teeth lightly, then nodded with a smile on his face.

"You are worthy of being this year's supernova, Fire Fist Ace, I admire you very much!

Let me help you too. Although my fruit ability cannot help you get water, I can at least help you maintain order at the scene!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Crocodile immediately took control of the water-fetching team.

Countless sands floated into the air, forming various guardrails and roadblocks made of sand and dust.

Soon, the people around followed the cordon set up by Crocodile and gradually became more orderly.

Walking along the cordon, countless people are sighing.

Fortunately, they met this passing pirate, and fortunately, their country has a national hero like Crocodile who is generous and willing to sacrifice his own money to bring fairness to the civilians!

So while queuing, they also offered their blessings to Crocodile in their hearts.

But how could people at that time know that Crocodile, with a smile on his face, just wanted to say one word to Ace.

He really wanted to point at Ace's nose and curse, "I gave you all the old boats made by Baoshu Adam, and you're not in a hurry to leave!"

Are you still a pirate?

You are almost like me, a hero in the eyes of the common people in Kotlaina City!!!

……

……

……

Time flies, and seventeen days have passed since Ace and Crocodile met.

Because the Xuanniao is too large, his ship is much slower than ordinary ships.

It would only take Cobra five to seven days to travel to Alabasta by boat.

But after the Xuanniao sailed for seventeen days, it was only possible to vaguely see the coastline of Alabasta in the distance and the extremely bustling dock.

Such a bustling dock directly attracted most of the cadres to come to the bow and look into the distance with interest.

Among the crowd, Rayleigh was obviously the most enthusiastic one. When he saw the scene of three little suns floating on the sea, he smiled with great emotion and said.

“Those three fireballs over there must be the Flame-Flame Fruit!

Haha, I finally met Ace!

Judging from the fact that there are always people around him expressing their gratitude to him, this kid should not be such a bad guy, haha!

but……

I'm really worried that Garp will teach Ace to become a fool like himself!!!"

Chapter 224: Beginning to confuse Ace

At this point, old man Reilly rubbed his beard expectantly, and he was so excited that even his latissimus dorsi muscles began to tense up.

However, after a brief moment of excitement, old man Rayleigh couldn't help but feel puzzled.

He pursed his lips in confusion, then asked Gao Wen.

“But he shouldn’t be taking this current route, right?

I remember when we were investigating before, didn't we say that he left for Trillans Island?

If I remember correctly, to get to Alabasta from Trillans, one needs to return to the Upside Down Mountain?

Did this kid get frustrated with Trillans and turn back to take another route?

Gao Wen, do you know why this child is like this? Do you have any information from Heibingtai and Xia Qi?"

Having said that, Rayleigh looked at Gawain, and Gawain.

Facing Rayleigh's expectant eyes, he shrugged lightly.

"Haha, do I need to tell you the reason? Of course, they are targeting us.

After all, he has already rushed over!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gawain pointed into the distance. The huge fireball on the Alabasta dock had already disappeared.

Ace turned into a fireman, and he rushed towards the Black Bird while yelling something viciously at Gawain...

……

Not long ago, near the pier.

Ace actually couldn't wait any longer!

These days, he was regarded as a hero by people outside Alabasta. After countless people heard that someone could distill seawater on a large scale, they immediately rushed to the city of Kotlaina!

Even in the rebellious areas that had just been suppressed by Crocodile, people moved to Kotlaina with their families on desert land crabs.

Because of this, Ace and his crew were completely controlled by the people who arrived one after another!

Faced with one hero's call after another, even if Ace and his crew wanted to leave, they could only endure the fatigue and distill fresh water for those people who were full of expectations and so hungry and thirsty that they could hardly survive.

After all, although Ace is a pirate, he is also a very good man!

How could he be so heartless as to abandon the civilians who begged him?

Just like that, day after day, for more than half a month, Ace never left the dock.

He condensed large fireballs during the day and took short rests at night. Although he was very tired these days, his proficiency in the Flame-Flame Fruit had actually improved a lot.

At the same time, I looked at the sincere and happy smiles on the faces of the civilians when they received the fresh water.

Ace also felt happy.

As for his only regret, it was probably that he was dragged here by the people who called him a hero, so that he could not sail to Gaya Island and then challenge Gao Wensheng who had fought with Whitebeard and Red Hair...

However, Ace never expected it!

My regrets could actually be resolved in this way!

Just now, when he was concentrating on maintaining the fireball, the Alabasta guards and civilians around him suddenly let out an extremely surprised cry towards the sea!

Following the sound, Ace looked at the sea behind him.

With just one glance, Ace recognized the Xuanniao. The moment this huge ship appeared in anyone's eyes, the identity of the ship's owner would be clear to everyone!

After all, looking at this ship is a far more shocking visual experience than standing in front of an aircraft carrier.

So, this impulsive and reckless young man simply left his crew behind and rushed towards Gawain.

At the same time, he kept shouting.

"Gao Wen, haha, I didn't expect you to come to me on your own initiative!

Today is such a lucky day!

Come and have a good fight with me, I will definitely be the Pirate King!"

……

In the distance, on the Xuanniao, they saw a trail of fire more than ten kilometers away.

Gawain rubbed his ears in confusion.

"What is he shouting?"

"do not know."

Rayleigh shook his head.

"From such a distance, I think only Brother Yixiao can hear it clearly, right?"

As he spoke, Rayleigh looked over at Yixiao.

"Brother Yixiao, what is that kid shouting? You should be able to hear it, right?"

"indeed!"

I just nodded, and then he showed an interesting smile.

"He looks like he's planning on challenging Lord Gawain, haha!"

"Hey?"

Rayleigh was stunned, then he quickly patted Gawain on the shoulder.

“Gawain, don’t take that kid seriously, he probably hasn’t even mastered the Armament Haki.

As for you, you have already mastered the fur of Armament Color recently, right?

They are both Nature-type, but if someone who knows Armament Haki fights someone who doesn’t, the one who doesn’t won’t have even a single advantage!

I don't want you to hurt him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh suddenly drew his sword and jumped off the bow of the Xuanniao.

"So, let me take this kid's first time and teach him what kind of strength is considered to be able to truly stand on the sea!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Rayleigh stepped on the sea, and while raising a white wave, he also quickly approached Ace.

On the opposite side, in the direction of Ace, he looked at Bai Lang running towards him and squinted his eyes in confusion.

"Someone took the initiative to come towards me?!"

After he finished speaking, Ace was not surprised but happy. He accelerated suddenly and raised his fist to face the approaching person who was about a kilometer away.

"fire punch!!!"

Amid the shouts, a huge flaming fist with a diameter of three meters suddenly rushed towards Rayleigh!

Facing the flaming fist, Rayleigh laughed and shook his head.

"To make the elements form a special shape is what Little Gawain despises the most, the way of using the natural fruit.

Even Sakaski only used the simplest tentacle-type lava to fight.

Only a little devil would do something like condensing elements into a special shape, because it is a thankless and useless task!"

As he spoke, Rayleigh raised his knife and chopped it down fiercely!

This seemingly casual blow, at the moment of shattering the fire fist, also rushed towards Ace himself together with Rayleigh.

Looking at the oncoming knife, Ace smiled excitedly.

“It’s not Gawain, but the legendary Pluto Rayleigh!

Haha, is this light and fluttering sword the legendary sword?"

“Light and fluffy?!!”
