One Piece: Beginning as the Monkey King

The old man was very angry.

"Hehe, kid, tell me, how did you know those secrets? Where is what I'm looking for? If you can't satisfy me, you will all be buried in the desert!"

Crocodile had a gloomy face and ignored Bardock's words.

In his opinion, these newcomers may have special abilities and learned some secret information. As long as he dealt with them before the news was exposed, everything would not be affected.

Now, let's interrogate the whereabouts of the ancient weapons first, and then leave no one behind.

"Crocodile, do you think you can defeat us? You are just a salted fish in the desert. Have you stepped out of the shadow of Whitebeard by bullying others all these years?"

Old Sand's arrogant attitude made Bardock very unhappy. If you don't make me happy, we will all be unhappy together.

Whitebeard is a taboo for Crocodile. If Bardock only said that he was a salted fish in the desert, he would not frown. But when Whitebeard was mentioned, his left hand began to hurt inexplicably, and he couldn't stop the anger in his heart.

"Looking for death! Crescent-shaped sand dunes!"

Crocodile's right hand turned into a huge crescent-shaped sand blade, sweeping towards Bardock and others.

This move will drain the moisture from the body of the person hit, but it will not kill the opponent immediately. Although he was furious, Crocodile still remained rational. He would not kill directly before asking the secret.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, you have such a bad temper, why don't you eat magma fruit?"

Facing the sand blade, Bardock punched slowly. This punch used the technique of the Eight Punch Fist, and the sand blade was directly knocked back into fine sand by the shock wave in mid-air.

"I see, you are relying on your strength to not know your own life and death? I have to bury a few newcomers like you every year. Sand Storm!"

Seeing that Bardock easily dissolved the arc-shaped sand dune, Crocodile immediately used his ability to form a sandstorm and controlled it to roll towards Bardock and the others.

As the storm approached, the power became stronger and stronger. Bardock sighed, the most annoying natural system, it could easily launch such a large-scale attack.

"You retreat to the somersault cloud to watch the battle, Bonis, you pay attention to protect everyone."

Bardock released the somersault cloud around them.

"Yes, boss."

"Bardock, be careful."

"Don't worry about us, Bardock, we can take care of ourselves."

"..."

When Robin and the others got on the somersault cloud, Bardock controlled the somersault cloud to rise into the sky, and the sand storm was already in sight.

Bardock did not retreat either. He changed into an orc form, raised his golden hoop, followed the wind and circled around the sand storm, and hit Crocodile with both hands.

Crocodile frowned at the orc Bardock. Is he an animal-type devil fruit user? He used the golden hook in his left hand to meet the golden hoop.

"Dang!"

A huge force came, and Crocodile was completely unable to resist. He immediately turned into sand to avoid the attack. Even so, when he returned to human form, he still spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Armament Haki!"

Crocodile looked ugly. He had not been injured for many years. He did not expect to be injured by this young boy today.

Moreover, this guy actually mastered the armament Haki, so he could not rely too much on the natural system's ability to be immune to physical attacks. In terms of close combat, I am afraid that the opponent has the advantage.

"Why are you not arrogant anymore, Sand Crocodile?"

Bardock rushed forward quickly, waving the golden hoop and attacking Crocodile continuously. His quick figure was like several Bardocks attacking at the same time.

At this time, Bardock had not yet used his full strength. His stick skills were far inferior to his swordsmanship and physical skills. He also wanted to see if the sand crocodile would be domineering.

"Desert Diamond Sword!"

After several frantic attempts, Crocodile could not bear it. His strength and skills were far inferior to his opponent. He could only transform his hands into four desert swords and release them. This was originally his powerful move, but now he only wanted to force Bardock to retreat.

The power of the Desert Diamond Sword was indeed extraordinary. The four sand blades easily cut through the desert and stopped far away.

Unfortunately, if he could not hit the opponent, no matter how powerful it was, it was useless. Bardock noticed Crocodile's attack with his observation Haki at the moment he attacked, and easily dodged his attack, and hit him on the shoulder with another stick.

"Crack."

It sounded like Crocodile's left shoulder was broken.

"How disappointing! You don't seem to be domineering! Crocodile! You failed in the New World. Have you been playing house all these years?"

Bardock didn't expect that he didn't

Feel Crocodile's domineering. Judging from Crocodile's reaction speed and ability to withstand blows, it doesn't seem like he can be domineering.

"Haki is just a kind of power! Don't you know that? As long as I master the ancient weapon Pluto, you, Whitebeard, and the World Government are all no problem."

Crocodile coughed up blood again, "Besides, does the fruit ability have to be inferior to domineering? Stop bragging! Heavy sand storm!"

A storm that is even bigger than the regular sand storm is instantly generated, and Crocodile himself turns into sand and merges into it.

"Interesting, the rotation power of the storm plus the cutting ability of the sand, and you can hide in the wind and attack at any time, the sand-sand fruit has been played with by you."

Bardock couldn't help but be alert. Although Old Sand is not very powerful in fighting, the damage is still considerable. Whether it is the scorpion venom needle or the desert prison, they have the ability to hurt Bardock.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger. Bardock was not afraid of being blown away while holding a heavy object like the golden hoop. However, the sand in the wind not only made it difficult for him to open his eyes, but also kept cutting his body.

Bardock had to wrap his domineering aura around his body. This was a stupid method, which consumed a lot of energy. It was okay for a short time, but the domineering aura might not be able to keep up with the consumption over time, so he focused his mind on the domineering aura of observation. Once Crocodile appeared, he would immediately strike with thunder.

Heavy sand storms, like ordinary sand storms, will lose control after growing to a certain extent.

Crocodile felt that he could no longer control this huge storm. He let the storm gradually deviate and sweep away, and he quietly fell to the ground, "Desert Sunflower!"

As soon as Bardock sensed Crocodile, he immediately felt the sand on the ground sinking continuously, and the place where he stood had turned into quicksand.

"Moon Step!"

Normally, Bardock can use the Moon Step to walk freely in the air. This time, he was holding the golden hoop, which was too heavy. Even with all his strength, he could only jump on the surface of the quicksand.

"Desert Sword!"

Taking advantage of Bardock's inconvenience, Crocodile used the most powerful and fastest attack move. A sand sword quickly rushed along the ground. After approaching Bardock, it instantly raised its head like a venomous snake and slashed upward from below.

"Dang"

The golden hoop accurately blocked the slash, and Bardock retreated and left the quicksand.

"It's over! Desert Prison!"

Crocodile appeared behind Bardock at some point. His intact right hand grabbed the back of Bardock's neck, trying to absorb the moisture from Bardock's whole body.

"How is it possible?"

The desert prison did not work at all. Bardock turned around intact and looked at Crocodile with a chuckle, "It's really over!"

Bardock took the opportunity to hold Crocodile's wrist, raised the golden hoop with one hand, and hit him with one stick.
