Pirate: This Marine has two Rinnegan.

While everyone was still stunned, Huang Mu suddenly shouted.

"Your Majesty, I was wrong! Please, spare my life!"

This guy is a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong, so naturally he has no backbone whatsoever.

Chiga didn't want to waste words with this kind of person. A thought flashed through her mind, and Aramaki felt a sudden emptiness within him, as if he had lost something important.

Before he could even discover what he had lost, several vines surged from the ground and wrapped around Huang Mu's body.

When the vines dispersed, Huang Mu had become a dried-up human body.

Chapter 388 The Dissolution of the Baroque

Chika held a green pineapple-shaped fruit in her hand, covered with leaf patterns. Just looking at it made one feel that life was in the air. This was Aramaki's Forest Fruit.

Chiga can now extract items remotely, unlike before when physical contact was required.

After throwing the Sensen Fruit into the doorway space, Chika turned to look at Aramu's group of subordinates.

When Qianhe's gaze swept over them, the group fell silent, not daring to even breathe loudly.

Chiga asked calmly,

Where is Rocks now?

The group looked at each other, none of them wanting to be the first to speak.

hum!

Golden rays shot out from Chiga's eyes once more, sweeping across the crowd like wheat being harvested, instantly dismembering half of the people.

The remaining people were so frightened that they stood frozen in place, and some even wet their pants.

The stench of blood mixed with the smell of urine made Qianhe frown. His eyes flashed with golden light again. Seeing this, someone finally couldn't hold back any longer. A henchman with a mohawk shouted...

"Captain Rocks is going to Wano Country to find Kaido!"

As soon as he spoke, the others immediately began to echo him. Chiga nodded, then turned and walked directly toward Crocodile.

Seeing Qianhe leave, the remaining group breathed a sigh of relief, but the next second...

Bang bang bang!

A series of explosions rang out, and the bodies of these people suddenly exploded like fireworks. The resulting blood mist was then swept away by a hurricane that appeared out of nowhere, including the corpses that had already been split in two.

It was as if nothing had ever happened.

The members of the Baroque Works all swallowed hard, their eyes filled with awe as they stared at Chiga's retreating figure.

Crocodile's face still bore Aramaki's shoe prints. He raised his hand to wipe them off, then bent down towards Chiga. This scene was once again astonishing. Was this still the same unruly Crocodile?

The reason he acted so humbly was not only because of Chiga's terrifying power, but more importantly because Chiga had once saved his life.

That's right, it was the time when Zero-Shiki Otsutsuki used Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Chika smiled as she looked at Crocodile, who was bending over in front of her, and said,

"You did a great job this time, this is your reward."

As she spoke, Chiga extended a finger and touched Crocodile's forehead, and a stream of golden energy flowed into Crocodile's body.

As the energy entered his body, Crocodile's eyes widened suddenly. His body began to turn into sand uncontrollably, and several tornado-like sandstorms rose up around him.

He did his best to restore his physical form and then stopped the sandstorm from spreading. If he had been any later, Alabasta would have been doomed, and he would have truly been protecting nothing.

Of course, with Chiga around, this kind of thing definitely won't happen.

Crocodile has realized what has happened to him; his Sand-Sand Fruit has awakened!

A look of ecstasy appeared on his face. Awakening a natural type is much more difficult than other types. He had worked hard for it for a long time, but he still hadn't even touched the threshold. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been suppressed into this state by Huang Mu, who was also a natural type.

However, the awakening he had been longing for day and night was easily awakened today by Chiga simply touching his forehead, and he felt as if he were dreaming.

Seeing Crocodile standing there speechless for a long time, Chiga reminded him,

"What? Haven't you gotten used to it yet?"

Crocodile then came to his senses and stared intently at Chiga, his gaze so intense that one might mistake him for someone who had fallen in love with her.

Chiga couldn't take it anymore. He took a half step back and said,

"You should take some time to adjust to your newfound power. I'm going to check out the royal city..."

"Thank you so much, Your Majesty!"

Before Chiga could finish speaking, Crocodile bowed deeply, his head almost touching his thigh. It has to be said that his flexibility is really good.

Chika waved her hand and said,

"This is what you deserve. By the way, you're free now. You can go wherever you want from now on."

After saying that, Chiga disappeared from the spot in a flash. He only slowly straightened up when the Baroque Works people walked up to Crocodile.

Dalez hesitated for a moment, then slowly began to speak.

"Boss, are we leaving here?"

Prolonged comfort can really erode one's fighting spirit. During this time in Alabasta, they enjoyed what could be described as VIP treatment, with the royal family providing them with the best food and drink.

Furthermore, they were stationed in Alabasta as guardians, and the people loved and respected them greatly, which gave them an unprecedented sense of satisfaction.

So now, if we ask them to leave, they're actually a little reluctant.

In particular, Ms. Double Fingers and Ms. Golden Week, one of them runs a bar and is having a great time, while the other has become a famous painter in Alabasta. The other members have also developed their own careers, and they have all integrated perfectly.

Crocodile himself, now the commander of the Royal Guard in Alabasta, initially looked down on the position, but as time went on, he lost himself in the constant, respectful address of "Commander"...

He pulled a cigar from his pocket, lit it, and, amidst the swirling smoke, looked at his men and asked...

Do you still want to go to sea?

Everyone looked at each other, unaware that their leader had become a lifeless, unambitious bum. Finally, it was Ms. Golden Week, who looked like a little girl, who mustered up the courage to speak.

"Boss, I don't want to leave. I like it here more than the sea!"

Crocodile looked up at her, while Golden Week shrank back, not daring to meet his boss's gaze.

Her partner, Mr. 3, known as Third Brother, stepped forward upon seeing this and echoed,

"Boss, I want to stay here with Mariano!"

Like Golden Week, he can now be considered an artist, after all, who can make a better wax figure than him?

The others also expressed their opinions; apart from Mr. 1, everyone else said they did not want to leave.

After they finished expressing their stance, they all looked at Crocodile nervously, afraid that he would get angry.

In fact, even if Crocodile insisted on taking them away, they would still choose to listen to their leader.

But to their surprise, Crocodile suddenly laughed.

This startled Golden Week and the others. They had been following Crocodile for quite some time, but he had only smiled a handful of times.

Just when they thought Crocodile had lost his mind from anger, he exhaled a smoke ring and said calmly,

"Since none of you are leaving, then I'm not leaving either!"

Chapter 389 Rocks VS Kaido

In the royal city,

Just like last time, Chiga suddenly appeared in the main hall.

"Lord Chiga!"

Upon seeing Qianhe, Weiwei excitedly tried to rush forward, but was held back tightly by Kobra, who scolded her.

"Weiwei! Don't be rude!"

After saying that, Kobra pulled Vivi down to kneel and bow deeply to Chiho.

Before the true king, these so-called kings are no different from ordinary people; they still have to kneel.

Weiwei struggled not to kneel, not because she disrespected Qianhe, but because she felt that once she knelt down, an insurmountable chasm would separate her from Qianhe.

Fortunately, Chiga didn't intend for the father and daughter to actually kneel down; he didn't really like people kneeling down to him all the time.

With a casual wave of his hand, an invisible force lifted the father and daughter up.

Chika waved her hand and said,

"Alright, you don't need to kneel down when you see me anymore."

Before Cobra could speak, Vivi shouted,

"Lord Chiga is the best!"

After saying that, Vivi broke free from Kobra's hand and ran over. She took Qianhe's arm and leaned against him.

This bold move made Cobra's eyelids twitch. As a king, no matter how humble he was, he couldn't help but have some concept of hierarchy. He was really afraid that Vivi's actions would offend Chiga.

Chiga naturally wouldn't dislike Vivi; who would refuse the advances of a beautiful girl?

He flicked Vivi's long blue hair and said with a smile,

"You're getting more and more beautiful. I look forward to the day you become queen."

Vivi rubbed her head against Qianhe's arm and mumbled something.

"I don't want to be a queen..."

"Huh? Your father only has you as his child. If you don't become queen, who will?"

"Then let him have another one! I think..."

Two blushes suddenly appeared on Weiwei's face, and she pursed her lips and remained silent.

Chiga asked curiously,

"What do you want to do?"

"I won't tell you, but I'll definitely work hard towards this goal!"
