Pirates: I will first max out the domineering color if I am not dead

Ivya was a little curious about this and kept twitching her nose.

"give you."

Xia Le took a bottle from the stall next to him and threw it to the adjutant behind him.

Ivya took it hurriedly, her cheeks flushed: "Thank you, thank you, sir."

Then she solemnly put it in her arms.

This was the first time her superior had given her a gift, and it was worth keeping for a lifetime.

Silently looking at the tall, strong figure in front of her that blocked all her view, Eveyya's heart was filled with emotions.

All in all, the two have been together for about eight years.

I have become more mature over the years, but Commander Xia Le has not changed since the day he came to the G-18 Fortress.

It was as if time had frozen for the other person.

Especially in recent years, Eveya could clearly notice that she was aging with time. A woman's golden age is only a few years, and once it's gone, it's gone.

"Captain Xia Le doesn't seem to age?"

"What about me? What will I be like in ten or twenty years?"

"Will you still be able to stay by your commander's side at that time?"

Thinking of this, Eveyya couldn't help but feel panic-stricken and even felt an inexplicable fear.

Xia Le in front did not notice his adjutant's thoughts, but pointed to the camel in front.

"Let's take it to Albana!"

Ivya was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded: “Yes, sir!”

Next, a group of more than a dozen people put on dust coats, rode on camels, and headed towards Albania under the guidance of a tour guide.

Alabasta is a desert kingdom with little rainfall, a perennially dry climate and high temperatures.

"Alabasta is a superpower located in the first half of the Grand Line."

"Its area exceeds 10 million square kilometers, and its standing army is about 600,000."

"This kingdom is quite powerful!"

Ivya was sitting on a camel, her face covered by a veil, leaving only her eyes exposed, and she introduced with emotion.

"Six hundred thousand?"

Xia Le was startled when he heard this, and his eyes flickered.

The 600,000 troops exceeded the total strength of the West Sea Navy by 300,000 after years of recruitment.

Of course, the kingdom’s military forces generally do not include elite naval forces.

One is the limitation of arms and insufficient resources, and the other is the lack of strength.

"If only this country had more elites and stronger men."

"That is a force that even the world government cannot ignore!"

Xia Le sighed softly.

"I've heard of such a country before. In the second half of the Grand Line, there is a country called Wano Country. Their warriors are very powerful!"

"Even the World Government and the Navy Headquarters take it very seriously and dare not provoke them easily!"

Eveyadao.

Xia Le nodded.

Looking at the yellow sand in front of me, I saw a series of footprints left by camels as they walked by.

“It’s just that the climate and environment are a bit bad.”

He sighed softly.

Sometimes, a country's development is closely related to its climate environment and geographical location.

A country with abundant iron ore will naturally develop its own gold and iron weapons.

Countries with suitable climates will focus on agriculture and animal husbandry.

So what is there in abundance in the Desert Kingdom?

Xia Le suddenly thought of oil and the desert kingdoms such as Dubai in his previous life.

But what is the use of oil in this world?

His thoughts were a little confused, but he quickly shook his head to dispel them.

We are not here to develop Alabasta.

“But maybe I can keep an eye on it in the future!”

"This is, after all, a kingdom with great potential."

Xia Le said secretly in his heart.

As a commander in the West Sea for many years, he naturally knew that the power of many countries in this world could not be ignored and that they concealed shocking secrets.

Many world-famous strong men started out in these countries.

Desert camels are slow, but they have great endurance.

Five days later, the team arrived in Albania, and everyone saw the capital of this desert kingdom.

Chapter 148 In the Palace

Albana.

The capital of the desert kingdom quickly showed its unique charm in front of Xia Le and others.

The prosperous streets, the exotic attire, and the noisy sounds poured into their eyes and ears from all directions.

The group of people were leading camels, all with curious and excited expressions.

"You can see the palace after you pass the clock tower in the center of the city."

The tour guide had dark skin. He lifted the clothes that covered his head and face, revealing his big bald head, and said with a smile.

"I won't accompany you on the rest of the journey."

"The Kingdom of Albana is quite conspicuous."

Xia Le nodded, and Yifya went forward to pay the bill and thanked the other party.

After receiving Bailey, the tour guide smiled and said, "Enjoy the hospitality of the people of the capital, guests!"

Then he turned around and led the camel away.

"Sir, shall we go directly to the palace?"

Ivya asked curiously.

Xia Le smiled, and naturally saw the curiosity in the other person's eyes: "Let's go around, we are not in a hurry to leave."

"Yes!"

Ivyya said loudly in excitement.

A group of people soon started wandering around the city like tourists.

About half a quarter of an hour later, a patrol team passed by. The man in the lead had a white cloth wrapped around his head, a long knife on his waist, and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle.

"Ok?"

When he saw the navy team in front of the street, his eyes narrowed immediately.

Then, when the tall figure in the team turned around, a look of shock immediately appeared on his face.

"he?!"

"It's His Royal Highness!"

Then, he took a step forward, but soon hesitation appeared on his face, and he turned around and spoke to the person behind him.

"Send word to His Majesty at once that His Royal Highness has arrived in Albana."

The soldier immediately turned around and walked away quickly.

Then, the man straightened his robe slightly, took a deep breath and walked forward.

"Your Highness, I am Bell from the Kingdom Guard."

A respectful voice sounded from about nine meters ahead. Xia Le smiled slightly and looked at the other party.

He was naturally aware of this team of Kingdom Guards, and had already recognized that the leading man was Bell, the adjutant of the Alabasta Guards.

That is the one who possesses the Animal-type Bird-Bird Fruit and has the ability of Falcon Punishment.

The most heroic scene was probably when he pulled a giant bomb into the air and yet he didn't die in the end.

Bell's loyalty to the kingdom and Nefertari is unquestionable.

"Hello Bell."

Xia Le nodded.

Behind him, Ivya and the other nine navy officers straightened up silently, staring forward, and an invisible aura of elite force suddenly spread out.

The guards who were able to accompany Lieutenant General Xia Le on business trips were naturally the elite in the West Sea. Each of them had already mastered one or two of the six styles.

Although their military rank is still that of sergeant, that is only because they are still studying in Xihai College. Once they graduate, everyone will immediately have the lowest rank of lieutenant.

"What a scary bunch of guys."

Bell's heart trembled, and a serious look suddenly appeared on his face.

As the adjutant of the Kingdom Guard, he was naturally very sensitive to the aura of his own kind.

"I heard that His Highness Xia Le is a vice admiral in the navy. His strength must be terrifying."

"From the outside, you can't tell at all."

Thinking silently in his heart, Bell bent down as an invitation.

"Your Majesty has been thinking about you for a long time. Your Highness, please follow me back to the palace."

Xia Le chuckled and nodded: "Then I'll trouble Adjutant Bell to lead the way."

Bell stood up upon hearing that and walked ahead with a serious and nervous expression.

Along the way, he kept an eye on Ivyya and the nine soldiers.

"This female adjutant is also very powerful!"

"I just don't know how strong His Highness Xia Le is."

"I heard that His Highness was lost in childhood. I didn't expect that after returning, he has become a powerful vice admiral in the navy."

Bell thought silently in his heart.

He secretly glanced at the other person's profile: "He is very tall, but his appearance is somewhat similar to His Majesty Cobra."

"Yeah, more handsome."

Along the way, the team seemed rather silent.

Bell is a man of few words. He was able to become the adjutant of the guard at a young age because of his real strength.

Soon, everyone arrived in front of the palace.

"Adjutant Bell!"

The guard luggage stationed in front of the palace gate called out respectfully.

"This is His Royal Highness the Prince."

Bell introduced.

"Your Highness?!"

The guard's eyes suddenly widened and he looked at Xia Le.
