Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 56 Alabasta! (Please read on! Please vote with your monthly tickets!)

Storm was enveloped in a cute-looking "bear paw cloud" of air and quickly flew away from the ground into the sky.

The chapel where Big Bear and Bonnie lived, and the island where the Kingdom of Sorbe was located, were both left behind.

Strom sat in the "bear paw cloud" and turned to look at the South China Sea islands behind him that were rapidly turning into small black dots.

He traveled to Alabasta alone this time.

He temporarily entrusted Kidd and Killer, whom he "picked up" on Belfast Island, to Kuma.

In addition, the large amount of money and supplies that had just been obtained from the Navy Headquarters through the "warship trade" were also handed over to Kuma by Storm.

Since Vegapunk believes that Germa 66's Vinsmoke Judge has the ability to heal "Jade Scales".

So Storm and Big Bear temporarily believe that Vinsmoke Judge can indeed cure Bonney's "Jade Scales".

Germa 66 is a mercenary kingdom where everything revolves around money.

Storm used all the money and supplies he obtained through the warship trade as "treatment expenses" for Bonnie.

"Hopefully that money will be enough; if not... we'll have to think of other ways."

Storm withdrew his gaze; the island behind him had completely merged with the sea and disappeared from sight.

"As for this 'bear paw cloud,' its flight speed is much slower than I expected..."

Kuma's Paw-Paw Fruit allows him to teleport people to a designated location.

However, this teleportation speed is not the "instantaneous teleportation" or "space jump" you might imagine.

As for Storm's personal riding experience...

He felt that Kuma's Paw-Paw Fruit teleportation speed was indeed faster than the Blue-Eyes White Dragon's flight speed.

But the speed is limited.

"From the South China Sea, across the Doldrums, through the Grand Line, and finally to Alabasta..."

Storm took out a rough world map from his pocket—an item he had obtained during a warship transaction.

"It's been a long journey..."

"Then, we need to speed things up!"

Storm put away the map and raised his hand to press on the surrounding "bear paw gas clouds".

He unleashed the power of the six-star [Momo Fruit] and added it to the "Bear Paw Aura".

【MoMo Fruit - 100x Speed】!

whoosh-

The speed of the "bear paw air mass" instantly increased to more than a hundred times its original speed.

The surrounding air was violently pushed aside by its rapid speed, and one ring-shaped air wave after another burst forth in the high sky.

That was a ring-shaped shockwave caused by the "bear paw air mass" exceeding the speed of sound and breaking the sound barrier!

"That's much faster!"

……

The Kingdom of Sorbe, a small chapel.

Kidd and Killer, watching their boss vanish in an instant—in their eyes, "vanished"—immediately turned to look at the big bear beside them.

For the first time, the two had a real sense of the strength of the tall, gentle-spoken man beside them.

To be honest.

Storm defeated the bear too quickly.

Kidd and Killer thought that Kuma was only slightly stronger than the two of them at best.

Now it seems this man is far more powerful than you might imagine...

Just that terrifying method of "disappearing instantly" just now.

If an ordinary person saw this, they might mistakenly think that the "tyrant" liked to destroy evidence!

Kuma was unaware of the secret thoughts that Kid and Killer were harboring.

After sending Storm to Alabasta.

Big Bear turned and went back to the chapel, giving Bonnie some earnest advice, telling her to take good care of herself and not to forget to eat...

Finally, Big Bear looked at Burdog beside him.

"Buldoug, this country is entrusted to you..."

"Yes, King Bear."

Burdogg gripped his cane tightly and responded solemnly.

After saying this, the former king was silent for a moment before speaking hesitantly.

"That man... the man riding the white dragon, is trustworthy, King Bear."

Although there were some disagreements between Burdoug and Storm.

However, all of Storm's actions were seen by Burdogg.

In Burdog's view, Storm was far more reliable than the revolutionary army that had appeared in the Kingdom of Sorbe more than a decade ago!

The gentle, simple, and honest bear was able to stay by this man's side...

Boordoug was completely at ease.

As for that "man riding on the back of a dragon".

Burdog's opinion remains the same as before—Vongola Storm doesn't seem like a pirate!

If all the pirates in the world could be like Vongola Storm...

"I know, Burdoug."

Big Bear smiled gently.

"Storm saved Bonnie, and I will keep my promise and stay by his side forever."

Burdog didn't say anything, he just raised his hand and gently patted Big Bear's arm.

The old man only hoped that the second half of Da Xiong's life would not be as miserable and tragic as the first half...

After giving instructions on the trivial matters, Big Bear packed his bags and went outside.

Kidd and Kira had been waiting for a long time.

Over the past few days.

Big Bear wasn't idle either.

With the help of the Revolutionary Army's intelligence network, he pinpointed the exact location of Germa 66, which was operating in the East China Sea.

"We're heading to the East China Sea now."

Kuma raised his right hand, ready to unleash the power of the Paw-Paw Fruit.

"Are you ready?"

Kidd and Kira exchanged a glance and took a step forward together.

"I'm ready!" x2

[Paw-Paw Fruit] ability activated.

Destination—East China Sea, Germa 66!

……

Paradise, Alabasta.

Flying all the way from the South China Sea, Storm crossed the doldrums and finally arrived at this super desert country.

When it arrived in the waters near Alabasta.

Storm removed the [100x Speed] effect from the "Bear Paw Ball".

The "bear paw air mass" suddenly slowed down.

Storm and the bear had already agreed on a "landing location".

The "bear paw air mass" passed through the rapeseed flower port of Alabasta, crossed the boundless desert, and finally arrived at an oasis full of life.

This is the "Dream City" located in northwestern Alabasta.

It is also the location of Crocodile's headquarters.

rain.

boom!

A huge cloud of air, shaped like a bear's paw, crashed down from the sky.

A deep and huge bear paw print was left on the ground of the rainy city.

The loud roar instantly carried far and wide.

Residents living in the rain heard the sound and thought there had been a huge explosion, causing a disturbance.

"Run!"

"It's a bomb!"

"The bomb exploded!"

After the smoke and dust cleared.

Storm leaped up from the bear paw print.

He raised an eyebrow as he looked at the panicked crowd around him.

"The landing made a bigger commotion than I expected! But that suits me just fine!"

Storm carefully selected the last one from "Banaro Island", "Kraigana Island", and "Alabasta".

His original intention was to first meet Crocodile.

Storm's mind flashed through information about the Sand Crocodile.

"Years ago, Crocodile somehow obtained information about the most evil warship, Hades, one of the three ancient weapons."

"The information Crocodile knew was inaccurate. He did not go to Wano Country, where [Pluto] was actually hidden, but instead came to Alabasta!"

"In Alabasta, Crocodile, as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, constantly hunts pirates in the surrounding waters and is often referred to as a 'hero' by the newspapers."

"How interesting, there are 'heroes' among pirates!"

once Upon a time.

Storm also believes that "hero" is a very prestigious title on this sea.

Until a certain anonymous "200x Effort King" also became a "Naval Hero"...

Tsk!

Storm banished some unpleasant memories from his mind.

He looked around.

After the riots that just happened.

There were hardly any people to be seen on the streets in the rain.

Storm had hoped that some senior executives from the Baroque Studio would come to the scene to handle the riot.

But the deserted streets told him...

Nobody came.

"If the people from Baroque Works aren't coming, then I'll have to go find them myself!"

With a thought, Storm's feet instantly turned into clay.

A blue-eyed white dragon leaped from the earth, carrying him into the sky.

Storm rode the white dragon and circled high in the sky for a while, but the "King of the Desert" whom he had long admired did not appear.

"Is Crocodile not home right now?"

Storm unleashed his Observation Haki, and the invisible Observation Haki instantly covered the entire oasis.

All the "sounds" emitted by all the creatures living in this oasis were perceived by Storm's Observation Haki.

Based on his senses, Storm moved closer to the "largest" and "strongest" sound in the city.

That was the central area of ​​the rain-soaked land.

A massive pyramid with gold and green accents.

At the top of the pyramid, there is a golden banana crocodile statue.

This is the core of the rain-fed land—

Pyramid Casino, Rain Banquet.

Storm rode the Blue-Eyes White Dragon and charged recklessly toward the Rain Banquet Casino.

Dragon crashes!

Another scream erupted from the city below.

"Dragon! White Dragon!"

"That dragon is charging at Yu Yan!"

"Where are our 'heroes'?!"

"The Rain Banquet is going to be destroyed by this white dragon!"

In full view of everyone.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon crashed violently into the Rain Banquet Pyramid.

But it's like one lump of clay hitting another lump of clay.

There was no explosion as expected.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon and the Rain Banquet Casino merged into one under the influence of a special force.

Just as the collision was about to occur, Storm used his abilities to "clay" the entire Rain Banquet Casino!

Even at the top of the Rain Banquet Casino.

That majestic and imposing golden banana crocodile statue.

Storm transformed it directly into the shape of a blue-eyed white dragon!
