Laughter echoed from all around, and a lewd figure suddenly appeared in the distance.

"Yellow-zam!"

Upon seeing who it was, Crocodile's face turned pale and then blue, almost dripping with sweat.

"Kizaru, what are you doing? We both work for the World Government. You dare to attack me? Aren't you afraid the other Seven Warlords will find out?"

Crocodile shouted angrily, but his heart was far from calm.

If the World Government knew he was searching for 'Pluto' and the identity of Baroque Works, they would definitely not let him go in order to stabilize the situation.

"You know?"

"Heh, this arrest warrant for you, Crocodile, was unanimously approved by all the Shichibukai. Who told you to do those things?"

Kizaru was contemptuous, showing great disdain for Crocodile, a guy who acted recklessly under the protection of the Navy.

"Hahaha……"

Crocodile gave a bitter laugh, then swung his iron hook and charged towards Ace.

Now, the person he hates most is Ace. If it weren't for Ace's resistance, he wouldn't be in this predicament where even escape is difficult.

Just three days ago, he was a powerful and influential Shichibukai.

The guardian deity of Adabastan, protected by the Navy Headquarters and revered by the people.

The secret head of Baroque Works, a well-known figure in the underworld.

But all of this was because of Zhao Hai's provocation three days ago. Normally, it wouldn't have been a big deal; he could have easily crushed him.

What's most hateful is this young man in front of him, who inexplicably wanted to fight him to the death, leading to this situation.

"Ace, let's die together!"

biu!

Just as Crocodile's raised iron hook was about to reach Ace, a sharp beam of light struck it.

Clang!

The iron hook shattered and scattered into a mess.

"you……"

Just as Crocodile was about to shout, a chain locked him down.

Crocodile, who had been jumping around just moments before, suddenly fell silent.

Seastone chains are specifically designed to counter Devil Fruit users.

call!

Ace, who hadn't made a move until now, seized the moment when Kizaru was dealing with Crocodile and, enduring the pain, made a rapid breakout towards the outer perimeter of the Marines.

"You little thief! Where do you think you're going!"

After Kizaru captured Crocodile, he saw Ace fleeing. His hand shone brightly, and a series of sharp attacks broke the sound barrier.

"Heh, Ace, if I get caught, you won't have an easy time either!"

Crocodile stared bloodthirstyly at the fiery red figure in the distance, his face contorted, and he let out a chilling laugh.

"what?"

The next moment, his laughter immediately subsided.

Because Kizaru's attack on Ace seemed fierce, and the ground was riddled with gullies.

However, the key point is that these attacks seem to have eyes and can't hit Ace, the main target.

At this moment, he also understood that Kizaru was holding back because he was afraid of Whitebeard behind Ace.

"Heh, why don't I have a powerful backer? God is so unfair!"

Crocodile gave a bitter laugh, his former heroic demeanor completely gone, replaced by...

A prisoner's awakening.

Chapter 109 Gary's Whimsical Ideas

A month later.

In a sea area along the Grand Line.

The sea was calm, with only a few seagulls occasionally passing by.

"Brother Hai, are you sure that so-called sky island is really here?"

Gary glanced around, his face saying, "You're not kidding us."

"and many more!"

Zhao Hai stared intently at a stretch of sea ahead.

Seeing Zhao Hai's serious expression, Gary also looked forward.

Can……

The sea remained the same, without any movement.

The water was a pale blue, without even the slightest ripple from a small fish turning over.

Are you kidding me?

If it weren't for Zhao Hai's solemn expression, Gary would probably have blurted out those words.

But even though Zhao Hai's expression made it seem like there really was a sky island here.

He was convinced that Zhao Hai was just putting on an act, too embarrassed to admit his mistake in front of them.

Time flies.

The sunlight that was directly overhead at the beginning has now shifted away by a certain arc.

It's been so long and Hai Ge still hasn't accepted this blow. It seems I need to find a way for him to save face.

Seeing that Zhao Hai was still pretending to be calm, Gary secretly pondered the situation.

"Brother Hai, we're not saints, and we can't be right about everything. It's too much for me..."

Buzz!

Just as Gary was offering his words of comfort, the sea suddenly began to shake.

Wisps of bubbles kept appearing, rising to the surface of the sea, and gathering more and more.

"what happened?"

Such an unusual turn of events caused Gary's pupils to dilate suddenly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"Splash!"

But the strange phenomena didn't stop there; a sea king-like fish-like creature burst out from the sea curtain.

Snapped!

Then, the fish-shaped creature slammed its hand on the surface of the sea and shot off into the distance.

Although his movements were swift, they were chaotic and disorganized, as if he were dodging something.

"Avoiding what?"

Upon realizing this, Gary's face showed even greater shock.

What is that that makes the sea kings flee?

"Brother Hai, let's go quickly! There's no such thing as a sky island here. Those myths and legends are just nonsense!"

Feeling the increasingly oppressive atmosphere around them, Gary anxiously tugged at Zhao Hai's sleeve.

"A passage to the Sky Island has appeared!"

Zhao Hai parted his lips slightly, his eyes fixed intently ahead.

"aisle?"

"Where is there anything..."

Gary intended to offer advice.

However, the surrounding seawater suddenly became violent, and the entire warship was rocking violently.

In an instant, the seawater boiled.

In the sea not far from them, a rapidly expanding underwater whirlpool suddenly appeared.

It stirs up all directions, creating surging waves!

It devoured everything, blotting out the sky and the sun!

"Navigator, set sail!"

Gary shouted, no longer consulting Zhao Hai.

He felt that Zhao Hai was acting very strangely, having suffered too much to properly judge right and wrong.

But the navigator remained unmoved, and the ship did not move.

"Set sail, head towards the whirlpool, that's the passage!"

Zhao Hai gave the order to the navigator.

The navigator obeyed the order, turned the ship around, and headed towards the center of the whirlpool.

"Brother Hai, you guys are crazy! That place will swallow us up!"

Gary shouted at Zhao Hai, looking anxious. How could they act so recklessly at such a critical moment?

"It's alright, it's safe there!"

Zhao Hai waved his hand, completely certain.

"you……"

Seeing that Zhao Hai and Gary were both playing so recklessly, Gary had no choice but to close his eyes and wait for death.
