Pirate Bloody Hand Mary

"Thank you for having the courage to stand in front of me! Weiwei!"

From a distance, Crocodile's voice could be heard even before he reached Weiwei.

"The person I admire is facing you, so naturally I can't fall behind."

Weiwei snorted coldly and looked at Crocodile with a low eyebrow.

Of course, this sentence also brought a sneer to Crocodile's face.

"However, the person you are talking about is already dead. It is naive to have this kind of affection for a dead person."

When Weiwei heard this, her expression froze slightly, but returned to normal in an instant.

She turned her cold eyes to Crocodile, and her firm tone left no room for doubt.

"She will never die, and I will give this cloak back to her."

Weiwei said, pulling a corner of the cloak on her shoulder with one hand.

"It's because of her protection that I can survive until now. It's precisely because she and I made a promise to see each other again in the future that I can stand here and fight."

Weiwei's eyes sharpened and she pointed directly at Crocodile.

"I can live as I do now thanks to Mary's help. So I have to respond as best I can. At least, I can't leave this battlefield!"

"This is the value of my life as a royal."

After saying these words, Crocodile had already rushed into the square with the dust, and was about to come into contact with Weiwei on the high platform.

He threw out an arc-shaped sand blade with one hand, and roared not to be outdone:

"Then just watch your delusions shatter."

The arc-shaped sand blade quickly approached Weiwei, but a black shadow got directly between the two and forcibly shattered the sand blade.

"Lan Yubi!"

A crisp female voice came from one side. Crocodile heard the sound and went away, only to see a navy appear unhurriedly.

Her hands turned into black fences, blocking Crocodile's tentative blow.

"What? Does the navy also want to meddle in such nosy matters?"

Crocodile narrowed his eyes and said unhappily.

"Nothing? This is no idle matter, Crocodile."

Tina sneered and mocked nonchalantly:

"A former Shichibukai whose title has been abolished is nothing more than a pirate. He is blatantly launching a war of aggression against countries that join the World Government. It is within the scope of the Navy's authority to handle this matter."

As she spoke, Tina looked at Crocodile's lonely arm and said with a rather strange expression:

"And it seems that you have already suffered a big loss at our hands..."

"Shut up."

Although Crocodile had been able to cultivate his energy for so many years, he would be so angry that his veins would bulge every time he thought about being cheated on by Mary.

In anger, Crocodile stopped talking nonsense with everyone, pressed his hand on the floor, and activated his rustling fruit ability.

"Erosion of reincarnation!"

The surrounding land gradually decayed and turned into sand, creating a desert out of thin air in the city square.

However, at this time, Weiwei waved her hand to the sky as if she had been prepared.

In Crocodile's eyes, wisps of green smoke suddenly rose from every corner of Albana.

"...This is...not good!"

Crocodile didn't understand what it was at first, but when he noticed dark clouds forming rapidly in the sky, he immediately realized what it was.

"Dancing fans!" Crocodile said with a tone of surprise, "You are really willing to put down the money. Did Nico Robin tell you that? If you do this, aren't you afraid that the rebels who have returned home will rebel again?"

Weiwei's expression remained unchanged and she said calmly:

"I will bear the responsibility afterwards, but in the face of the justice of the family and the country, before killing you, the leaders of the rebel army will never rebel because of such a trivial matter and let you down, Crocodile."

"You guy..."

While Crocodile was speaking, he drew out several desert swords, but they were all stopped by Tina.

In a true one-on-one situation, Tina is definitely no match for Crocodile. But before the intensity increased, it was not difficult for Tina to block Crocodile's attack.

Just as Tina delayed this little time, a heavy downpour suddenly fell.

Everyone present was soaked in water, and even the desert created by Crocodile's reincarnation was soaked by the rain.

"Tsk, trouble!"

Crocodile snorted coldly and turned around to leave.

"In our royal capital, you Crocodile can come and leave whenever you want!?"

With a sharp shout, Crocodile's eyes narrowed, and a figure as fast as lightning descended from the sky and stabbed Crocodile hard on the back.

Crocodile suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood as if struck by lightning.

Crocodile, who was drenched in the rain, could no longer elementalize, and he also lost resistance to this kind of physical attack.

However, his constant fighting instinct still made him violently swing a crescent-shaped sand dune behind him. Bell left just as quickly as he came. By the time Crocodile turned around, he was already flapping his wings and rising into the sky.

Now that Crocodile cannot be elementalized, in terms of physical skills, Crocodile with a broken arm does not have much advantage over his enemies Bell and Jaka.

Moreover, Crocodile's opponents are not limited to these two.

"Rubber rocket launcher!"

"Santo-ryu·Tiger Hunting!"

"brisket!"

Three sharp shouts came, and the Straw Hats, who had been unable to take action for a long time, also appeared here, and the three main forces attacked Crocodile at the same time.

Not only that, Tina also retracted her hands, closed her body a few times, and fired several finger guns at Crocodile's head.

"Everyone fire!"

At the same time, dense royal guards appeared around the square, firing at Crocodile from a distance.

The intensive gunfire made Crocodile confused.

"Get away!"

Crocodile shouted angrily, and the deep sand in the desert under his feet that had not been soaked by rain rushed out violently, covering Crocodile like a cover at a glance, barely blocking attacks from all directions.

However, Bell took advantage of the opportunity and pounced down from the sky as fast as lightning, hitting Crocodile with a fierce blow. Then when Crocodile could not react, he quickly pulled up again.

Crocodile, who was unable to elementalize and still had difficulty escaping, could only look at him anxiously.

"Damn guy..."

Crocodile was filled with rage, and his murderous aura raged out unscrupulously.

Although he can't gather ghost energy like Mary, Crocodile can also subconsciously release murderous energy in a messy way.

In this way, the person who attacks him can also be more cautious, and Crocodile will not be given a chance to breathe.

However, the next moment, a silver-blue aura suddenly spread out, and Crocodile's murderous aura collapsed at the first touch. Even Crocodile himself was stunned by this aura.

Bell and Gaka seized this opportunity and gave Crocodile a hard blow.

Bell first dropped with a sudden kick, breaking one of Crocodile's leg bones, causing Crocodile, who was still rushing to the outside, to kneel to the ground.

Sanji seized this moment of fighting opportunity, flew forward, and greeted Crocodile with a full set of foot skills.

"Heavy Shalan!"

After forcibly resisting Sanji's set of foot skills, Crocodile slammed his palm on the ground, and a violent sandstorm rose out of the air, knocking away Luffy, Zoro and Sanji who were approaching.

"Desert sword!"

Crocodile followed up without hesitation, and several desert swords flew straight towards the three Straw Hats in the air.

Yena's figure flashed, and her hands turned into black olives, barely able to block these desert swords.

Although Crocodile was unable to elementalize when he got wet, he could still manipulate sand to create similar effects.

Even if Na actually has the strength of a brigadier general, it is still difficult to resist this move.

On the other hand, Jaka quickly ran into Crocodile, accelerating with an indomitable momentum!

This unabashed sprint naturally couldn't hide from Crocodile's eyes. With a thought, a huge sand dune formed and rolled towards Jaka.

But I didn't expect that Jaka would ignore it and forcefully crashed through the huge sand dune. While his whole body was covered in bruises, his hard skull also forcibly collided with Crocodile! The whole person turned into a jackal and hit Crocodile with an unstoppable attitude.

At this moment, Crocodile groaned. He didn't know how many ribs were broken. The crisp cracking sound made Tina's teeth ache.

"How miserable."

Tina complained.

However, at this time Crocodile no longer cared about sarcastic remarks about Tina. While being caught off guard and suffering a heavy blow, Crocodile was also closer to Weiwei than ever before.

As long as he can capture Weiwei, he will win this time.

Crocodile struggled to turn his head to look at Weiwei while he was flying upside down. He looked at Weiwei who jumped down from the high platform and faced him directly. It was too late to make a temporary move. Crocodile stretched out his hand as if to directly grab Weiwei's body.

As long as it can capture her flesh and blood, it only takes a moment for the Desert Prison to completely make Weiwei lose her ability to resist!

However, at the moment when Crocodile took action, something changed suddenly.

Arms grew out of Crocodile's body one after another. Crocodile was shocked and angry and roared loudly: "Nico Robin!!!"

In the rain curtain, Robin stood in a hidden corner, lowered his eyes, and whispered:

"Twirling Flower."

The hands on Crocodile's body worked hard, breaking Crocodile's joints.

Of course Crocodile would not have his joints broken by such force, but the moment he was stuck by the rotating flower, Weiwei was already close in front of him.

Weiwei was stunned for a moment when faced with this scene, but then she reacted and kicked Crocodile with her high heels without hesitation.

"winter!"

With Sanji's slightly distorted expression, he watched helplessly as Vivi jumped off the high platform, and Crocodile, who was flying towards Vivi quickly, was kicked to a stop by Vivi, and his eyeballs were kicked directly by the heel of a high-heeled shoe. exploded.

"ah!!!"

This time Crocodile's screams were truly terrifying. After all, all the injuries he suffered before were not as serious as this time.

This is an eyeball. Even if Crocodile survives this time, he will become a one-eyed dragon.

Weiwei and Crocodile were separated at the first touch, and both of them flew out.

Crocodile directly sucked up the arm that did not belong to him, and flew out after being severely injured. Weiwei, on the other hand, was not strong enough and had to take a few steps back under the powerful impact.

When Weiwei stood firm, Crocodile also stood up unsteadily.

He covered his bleeding left eye and barely stood in a weird posture.

"My abilities have improved, Weiwei..." Crocodile's tone was unpredictable, "You actually have the domineering aura of a king..."

Crocodile had to sigh, after all, he thought that his heroic spirit was no less than anyone else, but until now he had not been able to awaken his domineering spirit.

On the contrary, Weiwei, whom he had always looked down upon, had awakened her domineering aura.

Moreover, compared to him who threatened and lured him, Weiwei actually had so many people facing a Qibuhai to help her.

Is this the so-called overlord...

Crocodile didn't mean to scold the unfair fate, but he felt a little emotional for no reason.

Looking at the crowd approaching around him and Weiwei's angry eyes, Crocodile took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and looked up at the sky.

The sky was covered with clouds and heavy raindrops hit his face, but he felt nothing.

At this time, countless pictures flashed through his mind.

Once upon a time, Crocodile was also a well-known strongman, and he could even fight Douglas Barrett to a close.

While becoming a Shichibukai, Crocodile also had the courage to challenge the strongest man on the sea: Whitebeard Edward Newgate.

But since losing to Whitebeard, Crocodile began to seek the country and work hard for Hades.

Inexplicably, Crocodile thought of Moonlight Moria.

He has always been dismissive of Moria, whose character was broken by Kaido. He believes that even if he is defeated by Whitebeard, he still has the domineering power to fight against him.

But now looking back, he was shocked to realize that he seemed to be no different from Moriah.

They were all defeated by the strongest people in the world, and they were all looking for the power of foreign objects.

Moria is creating zombies, while Crocodile is looking for Hades. There is essentially no difference between the two.

It's ridiculous that I have always looked down on Moriah. It turns out that I am nothing more than that...

Many years ago, Crocodile felt that his fruits had been developed to the end, so he neglected to train his own strength. Now that I think about it, it’s so ridiculous.

Bell and Gaga were approaching quickly, and Yena was shaving faster. Weiwei, who was closest, flew up with a peacock wood breaker, and the three straw hats were not to be outdone and pounced on Crocodile.

All this became extremely slow in Crocodile's eyes. At this time, Crocodile suddenly realized.

In any case, there is a decisive difference between him and Moriah.

"..."

Crocodile slowly lowered his head and looked at Weiwei in front of him.

"I have never forgotten why I pursue power..."

Saying some words that no one could hear clearly, Crocodile slowly raised his only remaining hand.

His eyes suddenly opened and he growled:

"My power exists to become the Pirate King. I don't need those external forces anymore. The strong men who reach the top of the world never need those!"

"Thank you for waking me up, Alabasta!"

At this moment, everyone's hair stood on end, and a layer of fear of death suddenly enveloped their hearts.

Yena and everyone else in the Straw Hats were people who had been wandering around in battles for many years, so they stayed away as soon as possible. Although Jaka, Bell, Weiwei and others were not that keen, when they saw the others flying back, they naturally exploded in reverse without hesitation.

The next moment, in the trembling eyes of everyone, silently and silently, the water around Crocodile slowly disappeared.

The heavy downpour in the sky disappeared instantly after approaching a certain range of Crocodile, forming a strange cover around Crocodile.

The ground beneath Crocodile's feet slowly and silently turned into sand.

A cold sweat broke out on Yena's forehead without her even noticing.

"Is this kind of power... really something that the Shasha fruit can do?"

In her mind, a legend gradually filled her brain.

"Awakening of fruit power...?"

"Bitter chalk? Soil of the dead."

Crocodile's tone was cold, but his eyes were full of fire.

After so many years, his fruit ability has not improved. Crocodile, who originally thought that his fruit abilities had come to an end in this life, finally had the breakthrough he had been waiting for!

He is the first to awaken the natural fruit ability!

Be the first of all!

Crocodile's heart once again regained the pride and arrogance he had when he challenged Whitebeard. Even though he didn't have the domineering aura, his aura faintly penetrated Weiwei's overlord color, weighing heavily on everyone's hearts.

The awakening of the natural fruit ability has changed from controlling a certain element and strengthening certain characteristics of this element to becoming an almost abstract concept.

Crocodile's Shasha Fruit strengthens the abstract concept of "drying up".

The situation was reversed in the blink of an eye.

Although he lost an eye, lost a hand, and even a leg was broken, his clothes were in tatters, his body was covered in blood and flesh, and he was in such a miserable state!

However, Crocodile at this time makes people feel that he is more powerful than the intact Crocodile before.

This kind of power is not only powerful in terms of strength, but also powerful in mind. Looking at the expressionless Crocodile, Ye Na suddenly felt the tremendous pressure from the three generals.

"Nefertari Vivi." Crocodile's tone was indifferent, "Now, we can continue."
