General Lanlin of One Piece

Chapter 319 A strong man falls from the sky
The endless rainy desert of Alabasta.

The dry air was like a flame licking the hot gravel, and the scorching heat seemed to distort the air above the desert.

Tina, whose face was a little pale and whose usually gorgeous red lips were now chapped due to lack of water, was being supported by Weiwei and headed deeper into the desert under the protection of more than a dozen navy soldiers. Escape.

The ferocity of Baroque Works is even higher than Tina imagined.

That group of people were like a group of endless locusts, hanging on not far behind them. They used flintlock guns, crossbows and other long-range attacks to constantly harass Tina and others. The few people who had been running away for more than ten hours were somewhat exhausted from running for their lives.

This time, Tina came to investigate the incident of dancing fans imported into Alabasta. She came lightly armed with only a dozen naval soldiers and did not mobilize any troops.

Because the Kingdom of Alabasta is a member of the World Government.

The navy is usually not allowed to interfere in the internal affairs of the participating countries.

Even if this matter is not good for this country, it will not matter.

Only when the World Government receives requests for support from the franchised countries and issues instructions to the Navy Headquarters can the Navy enter the franchised countries openly and handle matters.

And this kind of support is certainly not free.

Joining countries need to pay a considerable price to obtain naval support.

Theoretically, as long as the price paid is enough, even an admiral can be mobilized.

"Lieutenant Colonel Tina! Can you still hold on? How about we, the queens, stop the hyenas behind you and Princess Weiwei. As long as we hold on a little longer, Major General Luo Xia will arrive!"

"Yes! As long as Major General Rorschach arrives, not to mention these hyenas from Baroque Works, even Crocodile himself will have to flee!"

A dozen soldiers holding flintlock rifles that had long been empty of ammunition could not bear to look at Tina, who had no blood on her face. They gritted their teeth and looked at the dagger hanging in the distance a few hundred meters behind them. Large figures.

Tina glanced at her left shoulder that was soaked in blood, and reprimanded in a weak voice: "Tina said, you don't need to risk your lives to stop the enemy's harassment. Since Major General Rorschach and the others have received our request for help, then we Just keep going and wait for them to come.”

"but……"

The soldiers looked at Tina's stubborn expression and hesitated to speak.

The Rain Desert is located in the hinterland of the Kingdom of Alabasta, quite far away from the coastline of the port of Sentin Island.

Even Major General Rorschach's warship was already in the waters near Shengting Island when it received their request for help.

But it is extremely difficult to get here from Shengting Island in a short period of time and find them accurately.

However, except for Major General Rorschach, who was the first to receive the signal for help, they could not find anyone else who could help immediately.

The headquarters also contacted us, but water from afar could not quench our thirst for nearness.

There was nothing the Warring States Marshal could do, he just kept Tina away from danger and tried to delay as much time as possible.

Weiwei kept supporting Tina without saying a word.

She looked a little dazed at the moment.

She never thought that Crocodile, who had always been known as the hero of the Kingdom of Alabasta, would be Mr.0, the mysterious behind-the-scenes boss of Baroque Works in the words of these naval soldiers.

Weiwei didn't want to believe it.

A dozen days ago, she was rescued from a vicious pirate by the patron saint of that desert country.

but……

The navy in front of them who also saved themselves seemed to have no reason to deceive themselves about this.

Especially the heroic female navy next to her.

According to Tina's guess, the reason why King Shichibukai Crocodile has been staying in the Kingdom of Alabasta is probably to plot against this country.

The notorious Baroque Working Society in the paradise is most likely the force cultivated by Crocodile.

Otherwise, Crocodile, as a hero of the kingdom on the surface, would not have tolerated a chaotic organization like the Baroque Working Society to be arrogant in Alabasta for so long.

As soon as she thought that the desert patron saint worshiped by the whole country might be the culprit of the turmoil in the kingdom, Weiwei's heart couldn't help but tremble.

Crocodile is the powerful King Shichibukai and the ruler of the desert.

If the Kingdom of Alabasta seriously confronts such a coveted person, it is hard to imagine what kind of dark future it will usher in.

The more Weiwei thought about it, the smiling face of Crocodile she saw in the rainy land more than ten days ago became blurry and more ferocious in her mind.

If, if Crocodile is really the mastermind behind all the chaos...

So who can save this country?

"If Major General Rorschach comes, even Crocodile will have to run away!"

"Rear Admiral Rorschach is the most powerful new generation of our navy. None of the veteran lieutenant generals can match him!"

"That's a super strong man who can defeat a fleet of [-] pirates by himself!"

During the dozen or so hours of desperate escape, what Weiwei heard most often were these words from the mouths of the navy soldiers.

About Rorschach, a rising star in the Navy who seemed unusually young.

It seems that just mentioning that person's name can bring them strong confidence.

The keen Weiwei discovered that it was not just the navy soldiers who were like this.

This is true even for the powerful female Navy Lieutenant Commander Tina beside him.

I really don’t know what kind of person the rear admiral named Rorschach is, who can give these navy that kind of confidence.

Bang bang bang!
Bang bang bang!
There were short and fierce gunshots in my ears again, like popping beans.

Those damn hyenas started harassing and attacking again.

Tina and others ignored it and just silently quickened their pace.

With a distance of a hundred meters, the muskets in the hands of those people couldn't hit them at all. They were just scaring them and giving them mental intimidation.

The earth rumbled and trembled, and the desert land beneath my feet was shaken so much that quicksand rolled and slid away.

The navy soldiers looked back with greatly changed expressions, and saw bloated crocodiles swinging their wide and ferocious tails, opening their bloody mouths, and excitedly moving toward them, driven by a group of members of the Baroque Work Club. Rush over here.

"Run! It's Banana Crocodile!"

The soldiers dropped their flintlock guns, clenched their long knives, and blocked Tina and Weiwei.

"Princess Weiwei, please take Lieutenant Colonel Tina and leave first! Leave it to us here!" With that said, without waiting for Vivi and Tina to answer, a dozen naval soldiers held their swords and pointed towards The giant banana crocodile rushed towards me with its head and tail wagging.

"You are no match for those beasts. If you go there, you will lose your life in vain."

Tina sighed, broke away from Weiwei's support, took out a cigarette from her pocket and put it into her mouth. She smiled and said to Weiwei: "Princess Weiwei, I will trouble you to go back to the royal capital alone." ”

"Lieutenant Colonel Tina..." Weiwei was stunned and saw Tina biting the unlit cigarette. She swayed and rushed in front of the navy soldiers. She stretched out her hands to the left and right, and the two black iron fences flew quickly. It extended out from the palm of her hand and was bound towards the three giant beasts that were charging in unison.

Boom!

The three-headed banana crocodile, which was more than ten meters long, hit the black threshold released by Tina.

The huge collision force immediately twisted and bent the two black sills that were as hard as steel.

Tina, who was standing in front of Banana Crocodile, turned pale and spat out a mouthful of blood.

However, the banana crocodile that rushed towards him stopped. The black sill extending from her hand restrained its forelimbs, and with a few roars, it lay down on the yellow sand, sending up billowing dust all over the sky.

"It's really amazing. I didn't expect that a mere naval lieutenant colonel could have such power even after losing so much blood and being exhausted. Even I admire you a little, beautiful navy lady."

A fat man with a runny nose appeared on the back of the banana crocodile in the middle, holding a thick baseball bat in his hand, followed by a dachshund whose hindquarters were made of gun parts.

"Be careful! That person is Mr. 4 from Baroque Works."

Weiwei took out the peacock thorn from her cuff, put on a fighting stance, and chose to leave alone without listening to Tina's words.

"Rasu."

The big fat Mr4 sniffed and muttered something, then raised his two thick arms high and swung the baseball bat he was holding.

The dachshund named Rasu opened his mouth and spat out a black cannonball, which was hit by a baseball bat swinging from above and shot towards Tina with a bang.

"Four-hundred-pound home run!"

Tina chewed the cigarette, and let go of the black sill with her right hand. A black gun emerged from her palm, and she shot it out, stabbing the black cannonball before it flew close to her body.

Boom!

A huge explosion exploded four or five meters in front of her.

The scorching waves of fire and the impact of the violence made Tina, who was already severely exhausted and injured, turn even paler.

However, Mr4 did not stop, and continued to swing the bat in his hand rapidly, hitting all four black cannonballs spitted out by the dachshund.

Bang!
Bang bang bang!
Four black cannonballs flew toward Tina, who was shaking.

"Lieutenant Colonel Tina! Danger! Get out of the way!" Weiwei's face changed drastically and she shouted eagerly.

"Lieutenant Colonel!" the soldiers exclaimed.

The speed of the cannonballs was too fast, and with their strength, they could not stop them.

Click!

Suddenly, a thick bolt of lightning spread from the far end of the sky, like the branches of a towering ancient tree, stretching infinitely in the air and crashing down from Mr4's head.

Boom! !
The bright electric light instantly covered and penetrated the big fat man wielding the baseball bat, the dachshund at his feet, and the three banana crocodiles struggling to get up again.

The terrifying high-intensity electric current instantly turned their bodies into a pile of unrecognizable charcoal.

The four cannonballs fired at Tina also exploded in the air and turned into four balls of fire.

The sudden change stunned everyone present.

The members of the Baroque Working Group who came from afar with a grin on their faces looked at this scene in astonishment.

Some people subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Tina, Weiwei and others also looked into the distance.

Whoohoo!
A violent and roaring storm resounded across the sky and earth, pushing a blue warship with seagull sails beating across the sky.

A vague majestic figure took the lead and fell on the desert in front of the members of the Baroque Working Society like a meteorite from a height of several hundred meters.

The terrifying impact force immediately shook the yellow sand beneath everyone's feet, causing it to roll in all directions like waves.

In the midst of the billowing yellow sand, a terrifying and ferocious figure like a mountain stood in the dust, looking coldly at the hundreds of members of the Baroque Working Society armed with flintlock guns and swords.

With just one glance, these hundreds of people seemed to have been hit by a raging tsunami at the same time. Blood spurted from their mouths, their eyes turned white, and they fell down like wheat.

A large area fell down instantly!

The impact of a substantial overlord-like domineering force knocked hundreds of people flying more than ten meters, and spread a large area of ​​turbulent yellow sand in the desert beneath their feet.

It was only then that the roaring [-]-meter battleship arrived above Tina and others.

Spreading its huge wings, it looked like an ancient giant beast, swaying under the pressure of endless wind and sand.

"ROOM!"

A spherical gas cover with a diameter of 300 meters was placed under the air cover, covering the suppressed warship.

The next moment, the huge light blue battleship disappeared in mid-air and suddenly appeared in the desert open space to the right of Tina and others. It landed steadily without stirring up a trace of dust.

"Sister Tina! Are you okay?"

An anxious clear voice sounded from the warship.

Then Weiwei felt her eyes flash, and a beautiful and sweet navy girl appeared in front of Tina in an instant, supporting the weak Tina.

On the huge warship, there were even more solemn-looking navy soldiers pouring down like a tide.

But at this moment, all of Weiwei's attention was focused on the burly figure like a demon directly in front of her.

In the rolling yellow sand, the demon god who appeared in a shocking way turned around and stepped forward.

As he took steps, that huge and oppressive body shrank little by little.

When the opponent walked out of the dusty sky and came to Weiwei, he changed from the demon-like posture before to a tall and slender figure with exposed muscles like barrier armor and long silver shawl hair. And a navy boy with eyes as blue as the sky.

A voice as hard and cold as iron came from the other party's mouth.

"Where is that bastard Crocodile?"
