Pirate: I'm just slacking off, do you really think I'm a noob?

Crocodile's face had become very ugly.

How long.

It had been a long time since he had experienced the feeling of being trained like a dog.

Do not!

The last time I was almost beaten to death was done by the man in front of me.

He broke his left hand and stomped on his face. But at that time, in order to survive and for revenge, he accepted the invitation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea with a heavy heart.

He set up his base in the Alabasta factory and lived a very comfortable life during the past three years.

He is openly regarded as a hero of Alabasta and is sought after by many people.

Behind the scenes, his Barot Works was developing better and better, controlling many places in Alabasta, and even the king was fooled by him.

As a result, after this man came, everything came to nothing.

Everything he had was like dust in front of this man and didn't need any care at all.

This made the arrogant Crocodile almost break his teeth.

But he still lowered his head and uttered words of surrender:

"Yes, Lieutenant General Raleigh. I will organize personnel as soon as possible and come up with an effective plan to accomplish this task."

The rage for revenge grew stronger in his heart, and he didn't dare to look up to let Raleigh see his eyes.

His already urgent thoughts became even more urgent.

He must obtain the ancient weapon recorded in Alabasta's history, Pluto.

Raleigh was able to humiliate him unscrupulously because he possessed a power that Crocodile did not have. In this world, strength is the standard for measuring morality.

Whoever has the greater power has the right to speak!

“Just wait, when I get the ancient weapon, that’s when you kneel down and beg for mercy.

Crocodile's thoughts were running wildly.

Raleigh didn't know what Crocodile was thinking, or maybe he didn't need to know.

The whereabouts of Pluto is indeed recorded in the main text of Alabasta's history.

But unfortunately, Crocodile can't enter that place.

Because Pluto was sealed in the underground magma of Wano Country,

Apart from this, only Mr. Tom, the legendary craftsman in the Water City, knows how to make Pluto.

In Raleigh's opinion, Pluto might be powerful enough, but it is still unrealistic to want to fight against Uranus.

As for Crocodile who wanted to have ancient weapons to fight against him, Raleigh thought it would be better to give him some hope.

If Crocodile's dream were shattered now, perhaps he would become decadent.

Then Raleigh will have to take the time to find the right candidate for the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

It’s not that the navy has no way to take over here, but the navy is now being closely watched by the World Government.

Sengoku wasn't a bad leader.

Rather, the world situation changed greatly during his reign and during Sora's reign.

During Sora's reign, there were the New World Overlord Rocks Pirates, the Pirate King Roger Pirates, and so on.

Even though the Rocks Pirates fell apart, except for Rocks, the other pirate captains were unharmed.

The strength of this group of people is enough to give even the World Government a headache, so the Navy needs to be tough while Sora is in office.

But when Zhan Guo became the master, Roger had already died.

Even in the original work, the Four Emperors stopped expanding after reaching a certain range, as they had no ambition to become the world overlord.

If there is one, it is Shiki the Golden Lion.

Unfortunately, the Golden Lion Shiki of this world died directly in the naval battle.

In the original world, the Golden Lion has been advancing the city for many years.

The ambition to dominate the world was forced to end after just a few steps.

Raleigh casually flipped open a document, which recorded some of the work content and income of the Barlot Works.

After taking a few glances, he threw the document at Crocodile's feet and said:

"I think you have only been thinking about making money in the past few years and have forgotten the mission assigned to you by the World Government."

1

Crocodile lowered his head and looked at the documents at his feet without saying anything.

"Alright, I have other things to do in Alabasta, I'll leave after you tell me."

Luo Li stood up from his office chair, looked out the window and said:

"Alabasta has plenty of rain."

"But when I came here, I met many people who had no water to drink. I will check what happened when I have time."

After saying that, Raleigh didn't care whether Crocodile answered or not, and walked out of the office with Gion.

The original manager was already waiting at the door.

Managers working in casinos are all shrewd people. Even their bosses are respectful to them. They are definitely people they cannot afford to mess with.

The manager quickly handed over a small suitcase."

"Sir, you must have been tired on this journey. Here is some money for your tea."

Our boss has instructed that the money you just spent on entertainment in the casino should be included."

Gion was a little surprised to see this scene. It’s not that she couldn’t understand it, but she simply felt that the reaction here was very fast.

Rowley took the briefcase from the manager with an expressionless face and nodded.

Since someone is giving him money, why shouldn't he accept it?

Anyway, Crocodile's money is not legitimate profit.

After the two men left the casino, they quickly disappeared in the wind and sand. They were heading to Alupana, the capital of Alabasta.

'Boss, the two adults have left.

Our people followed them out of the rain and returned.”

A young man in a black suit said respectfully.

At this moment, Crocodile was already sitting in his office chair with a bottle of red wine in his hand.

After Raleigh left, he gulped down expensive red wine, trying to numb himself.

However, after hearing the information, he couldn't help it.

!

After a loud bang, the high-end office desk that Crocodile had spent a lot of money to customize was smashed directly by his huge force.

He raised his head, which had been lowered in front of Raleigh, and looked at the younger brother in front of him with bloodshot eyes.

Inform the people from the Barlot Works to arrive here at night. If they fail to arrive, they don’t need to come again.

There was anger in his cold tone, which scared the little brother in the black suit.

He said tremblingly:

"Yes, Boss.

"Go."

Crocodile waved his hand. He said he had no habit of venting his anger on his subordinates.

Crocodile, who wants to be a hero, sets high standards for himself, and it would be best if he could control his emotions.

Unless it is necessary, he generally does not get angry in front of his subordinates.

Before the boy in the black suit was about to leave, Crocodile suddenly remembered something:

"Send me the information of the pirate gangs entrenched in Alabasta. I want their detailed addresses and personnel."

Crocodile kept reminding himself that venting anger was good for the body.

Raleigh had not yet left Old Arabas,

Crocodile could only attack the pirate with the saw.

Some of these pirates came in secretly, some were wanted by Crocodile, and some had someone behind them.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Crocodile needed to vent, so they became scapegoats.

Just like the famous saying: What does it have to do with you if I destroy you?

The only thing to blame is that their strength is not enough for Crocodile to take seriously.

Soon, a document was delivered to Crocodile's office. Because the desk was smashed, the boy in the suit could only stand beside Crocodile holding the document.

Crocodile read one copy and threw the other on the ground.

Half an hour later, after Crocodile finished reading the documents in his hand, layers of murderous aura emanated from his body.

call!

Suddenly, a strong wind blew in the room, and Crocodile's body merged into the wind like quicksand.

The sandstorm-like wind blew open the office window and flew away into the distance with a roar. Everyone who saw it in the rain bowed devoutly to Crocodile.

"Lord Crocodile is out again. Is this a powerful pirate?"

"No matter how powerful they are, they will be defeated as long as Lord Crocodile makes a move."

"Yes, yes, Crocodile-sama is invincible!

The ignorant people don't understand, they truly believe from the bottom of their hearts that Crocodile is the hero of Alabasta.

During that day

A total of five pirate groups, with nearly a thousand pirates of all sizes, were sucked into mummies by the sandstorm.

It was not until night fell that Crocodile, looking a little tired, flew back to the rainy land.

With an expressionless face, he returned to his own office under the protection of security guards.

At this moment, the office was filled with cadres from the Barlot Works.

The desks and windows that were damaged in the morning were all replaced with new ones by Yuyan staff.

Crocodile held a cigar in his mouth, sat expressionlessly at his seat, and looked at the cadres under him.

He opened his mouth and said:

"In the morning, Lieutenant General Christine Rowley of the Navy came over and assigned us new tasks."

That is to reduce the number of pirates entering the Grand Line through Mount Inverted and Alabasta this year to 30% of last year's number.

I know this is a rather troublesome matter, but it concerns our lives. You should all know the name of Lieutenant General Christine Rowley. "

The subordinates looked at each other, and even Mr. 1 didn't know what to say.

If we only talk about fighting, he is indeed quite fierce. But it is a bit difficult to ask him to give advice, and the ideas he can come up with are not as good as Crocodile's own ideas.

Several other people were also thinking hard about how to solve this problem.

Crocodile saw that everyone was lost in thought, so he didn't rush them.

The waiters on the first floor brought up cups of tea, but they were all busy thinking about things and had no time to drink.

By the time the hot tea had cooled down, no one had come up with an answer.

Crocodile's anger, which he had just vented, surged up again:

"waste!"

"You are all a bunch of trash!

It's been so long, and I haven't come up with even a similar idea!"
