Chapter 61 The Giants of the Little Garden! (Please read on! Please vote with your monthly tickets!)

The crocodile walked away, cursing.

At Storm's request, the host of the Rain Banquet went to prepare for the banquet.

With the alliance successfully formed and the two sides moving toward the same goal, how could such a joyous occasion not be celebrated with a lively and sumptuous banquet?

Okay, actually it's mainly because Storm was hungry and wanted to eat a lot of meat...

After the sand crocodile's figure had completely disappeared from sight.

Storm looked at Robin again.

"Wasn't what you just said too hurtful to Crocodile?"

"How could that be, boss?"

Robin smiled slightly and skillfully changed his tone.

"Besides, so what if Mr. Crocodile was hurt? I've already resigned."

"I'm your subordinate now, boss!"

Robin's meaning is very simple—

I am a subordinate of the White Dragon! How could I possibly be afraid of a mere sand crocodile?

Robin cleanly and decisively dropped the topic of her former boss, biting her lip lightly as she eagerly asked her question.

"Boss, what you just mentioned... Haguval?"

"Haguwar D. Sauro".

Seeing Robin's eagerness to surrender, Storm stopped beating around the bush and spoke directly.

Sixteen years ago, the World Government ordered the execution of the Buster Order on Ohara, the omniscient island in the West Blue.

"Haguval D. Saul was originally one of the five Navy Vice Admirals in charge of carrying out the Buster Call incident."

"However, he abandoned his 'camp' and chose true 'justice,' and then..."

"The current Marine Admiral, Aokiji Kuzan, is completely frozen!"

Aokiji Kuzan...

The name seemed to awaken Robin's painful past, and she couldn't help but shudder.

The composed and confident older woman suddenly transformed into a trembling little girl.

"Sauro... Aokiji... he killed Sauro..."

"They didn't kill him."

"……Um?"

"I mean, Aokiji Kuzan did not kill Haguval D. Saul."

Storm revealed this secret that had been frozen for many years.

"Sauro not only survived the original Buster Call incident, but he also 'saved' Ohara once again."

"After the Buster Call incident, Saul brought in help from the land of giants to take the 'knowledge' that the scholars of Ohara had risked their lives to preserve to the land of giants—Elbaf."

"Sauro..."

Robin covered her mouth with her hand, but tears still welled up in her eyes, instantly wetting most of her face.

Storm shrugged, stood up, and walked in the direction Crocodile had left, leaving Robin alone in the space.

The sound of weeping echoed inside the pyramid for a long time.

When Robin reappeared in front of Storm and Crocodile.

She exuded a pure and untainted aura...

"White Dragon".

Crocodile looked into Robin's rabbit-like red eyes and couldn't help but question her.

"What did you do to this woman?"

"secret."

Storm grabbed a large piece of sea king meat and stuffed it into his mouth, finishing it in the blink of an eye.

The Diamond Trophy he had just obtained by defeating the Sand Crocodile had now been added to his Strength attribute.

[Power: ★★★★★★☆] (Six and a half stars)

"By the way, Old Sha—"

"You bastard! Don't call me Old Sha!"

"Okay, Old Fish."

Storm readily accepted the good advice.

"Prepare another boat for me, and fill it with plenty of wine. I'm leaving Alabasta soon."

Old fish...

Several twisted blue veins suddenly bulged on Crocodile's forehead.

This name is even worse than "Old Sha"!

Mixed protein dragon!

Crocodile took several deep breaths to suppress the anger rising within him.

Where are you going?

"The Little Garden".

Storm didn't hide anything and said it directly.

"There are two giants there; they must be quite strong."

"Old Fish, didn't you spot those two big guys before?"

"No! Call me Old Fish!"

Crocodile spoke word for word.

"Those two giants in the little garden are mentally unstable; all they do is fight all day long."

"It is said that they have been fighting for more than a hundred years!"

"I don't need stupid subordinates who only have muscles on their heads."

"It's not just a rumor, they really did fight for over a hundred years."

"Stromb chuckled."

"Besides, Old Sha, you think they're stupid, but they might think you're weak!"

"Those two giants are no ordinary creatures."

"They were the two giant captains of the Giant Warrior Pirates from over a hundred years ago!"

……

A magnificent, enormous sailing ship slowly sailed away from the port of Alabasta.

The bow of this sailboat features a menacing golden banana crocodile figurehead.

This is Crocodile's ship—the Baroque Gustav!

After learning that the two giants in the small garden were the captains of the once-famous Giant Warrior Pirates, they were overjoyed.

Crocodile, who was initially uninterested in them, still chose to accompany Storm to the small garden.

Having already switched sides, Robin naturally followed Storm.

She was also very curious about the two giants from Elbaf...

"Old Sha, your boat is awesome!"

Standing on the deck of the Baroque Gustav, Storm silently activated his Clay-Clay Fruit ability.

"It's comparable in size to a large naval warship! It's just a bit slow..."

The moment Storm finished speaking.

Several oversized ceramic propellers were installed on the bottom of the Baroque Gustav and began to spin at extremely high speeds.

The sailboat's speed suddenly increased dramatically.

Crocodile had also wanted to light a cigar.

But the sudden surge in the ship's speed caused him to sway violently.

The cigar didn't light, but his eyebrows almost caught fire!

"White Dragon!"

Crocodile steadied himself and crushed the cigar in one swift motion.

"What have you done now?"

"We need to speed things up—"

Storm ignored Crocodile.

He covered the hull of the Baroque Gustav with a layer of sturdy ceramic for securing it.

Then he directly activated the power of the [Momo Fruit].

[Momo Fruit - Double Speed]!

The speed of the Baroque Gustav was increased by more than double.

With the ship's speed increasing dramatically, Crocodile no longer had time to curse that bastard Storm; he was just busy stabilizing himself.

But before he could fully adapt...

[Momo Fruit - Five Times Speed]!

And then again—

[Momo Fruit - 10x Speed]!

With the acceleration effect of [ten times speed], Storm keenly sensed that the ship had reached a stable and balanced state.

If the speed continues to increase, the Baroque Gustav's hull will probably fall apart...

"This speed is so-so..."

Only then did Storm look at the sand crocodile beside him.

"Hey? Old Sha, what's with your hairstyle? How did your slicked-back hair turn into a hedgehog's head?"

"...I'm going to kill you!!"

……

The distance between Alabasta and the Little Garden is not far.

Even a simple, old-fashioned sailboat can travel between the two islands in just five or six days.

The Baroque Gustav was not a slow ship to begin with.

After receiving the speed boost from the "Ceramic Propeller" and the "Momo Fruit - 10x Speed".

Only half a day had passed.

The Baroque Gustav then arrived at the waters near the Little Garden.

Storm secretly deactivated the effects of the two Devil Fruits.

The Baroque Gustav continued sailing for some distance before finally coming to a stop on the waters near the Little Garden.

Thump—thump—

A slightly distorted booming sound kept coming from the air.

Feeling down, Crocodile looked towards the small garden not far away.

Even from this far out at sea, the sounds of battle could be heard coming from the island...

The two giants on the island were indeed much stronger than I had imagined...

"Old Sha, you stay and guard the boat!"

The blue-eyed white dragon on Storm's shoulder flew into the sky, its size instantly growing to enormous size.

"I'm going to the island first!"

Crocodile stared at the white dragon that had already flown into the sky, gritted his teeth, and turned to look at Robin beside him.

"You! Guard the ship!"

After saying that, the sand crocodile rode a gust of sand and flew away from the Baroque Gustav, heading towards the small garden.

Robin watched as the two former bosses flew away one after the other, and couldn't help but raise his hand to support his chin.

"Giants, I really want to see them too..."

The sea breeze carried away the whispers of the devil's son.

Storm, riding his blue-eyed white dragon, was the first to arrive at the small garden.

Behind him, Crocodile desperately unleashed "Sandstorm," also "flying" from the sea to the island.

Storm ignored the sand crocodiles behind him.

The blue-eyed white dragon flew straight towards the central area of ​​the small garden.

Two colossal giants, each over twenty meters tall, are engaged in a fierce battle in the central area of ​​the island.

Each clash of the giants' weapons produced a deafening roar.

The Blue-Eyes White Dragon was enormous.

Even the Red Demon Brogy, who was in the midst of battle, could not ignore this behemoth, and he laughed loudly.

"Crack! Dongli, it looks like a dragon is flying up behind you!"

The blue demon, Dorry, who was fighting the red demon Brogy, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Heh heh heh heh! Brogy, that's an outdated move. I won't be able to land a hit like that again when I'm over a hundred!"

The blue-eyed white dragon flew closer and closer.

Red Demon Brogy took a few small steps back, voluntarily ceasing the fight.

"A dragon! It really is a dragon!"

This time, without waiting for Aoki Tori's response.

The blue-eyed white dragon then let out a thunderous roar that pierced through the clouds and shattered rocks.

"roar--"

The earth-shattering dragon roar instantly caught the attention of the blue demon Dongli.

Holding his longsword, he turned around and just in time to see a small black dot leap down from the white dragon in the sky.

High in the sky.

Storm released an endless amount of clay, enveloping his entire body, causing his size to explode and expand.

boom!

The moment Storm landed.

A towering white giant stands proudly on the ground of the small garden!
