One Piece: Transform into the Eight Great Demons!

Chapter 103 Changing his words with tears

There was a faint smile on the corner of Shanks' mouth.

Like the scythe of death, it was hovering on Crocodile's neck and was about to fall.

The next second——

Click!

Before Crocodile could even refute, Shanks hung up the phone.

Crocodile: "..."

The corners of his mouth twitched wildly.

He called back several times and finally explained the matter clearly.

"oh oh!"

Shanks finally understood the whole story and was very interested in what happened in Alabasta.

"[Golden Lion]? Hahahaha, what a nostalgic name!"

"Whether it's Bucky or Shiki, is it time for a big gathering of old friends recently?"

"Anyway, I ask you to take good care of Uta. See you later!"

Click!

The phone was hung up again, and Crocodile's eyes twitched again.

After a while, he shook his head and stopped caring.

Although [Red Hair] had fought against [Golden Lion], he was still just a trainee crew member at that time.

In addition, no one can tell what has happened to the Golden Lion after so many years, so Shanks' information may not be reliable.

"You still have to see it for yourself, what is that 'Conference of Strong Men'?"

"..."

…

Time flies, and it is four full days.

During this period, the Alabasta side adjusted its strategy due to the return of two powerful "allies", Alvin Lindsay and Crocodile.

Instead of forming "guerrillas" to fight pirates, they established "rescue teams" scattered throughout Alabasta to help residents escape.

This strategic adjustment is undoubtedly correct.

It would be difficult for Alabasta alone to deal with so many pirates.

At the same time, the greatest threat to the residents of Alabasta is not pirates, but various ferocious animals from the floating islands.

…

Those are all the experimental products of [Golden Lion] Shi Ji.

After escaping from Impel Down City, the Golden Lion came to an island called "Vilmeio" and discovered a plant called "IQ" on the island.

Animals that eat this plant often become extremely aggressive and their strength is greatly enhanced.

The Golden Lion teamed up with his most trusted subordinate, Dr. Indygo, to study IQ, intending to use this as a basis to retaliate against the World Government and the East China Sea.

Today, those animal studies are unfinished.

On the Golden Lion's side, they probably want to use the Powerful Conference to form a pirate alliance, and on the other hand, use the excess pirates and the Alabasta army to speed up the research and development of mutant animals.

…

The above is the maximum possibility deduced by Lindsay.

Kobra's speculation is basically consistent with it.

He is a benevolent king, but he is still a "king" after all, and his strategic vision is sufficient.

After making all the preparations, Kobra let out a long sigh and said firmly:

"Everything will be revealed soon..."

…

Day five, early morning.

According to the flyers and the various sound transmission shells, today is the day of the powerful conference.

[Golden Lion] Shiki challenged [One Piece] Roger's last words head-on.

Every sentence he wrote on the flyer expressed deep resentment towards Roger.

Want to find treasure?

No need to travel far because the treasure is right at hand!

Dream or idea?

There is no need for such boring things in this sea. Only the strong can survive!

"Jie hahahaha!"

The golden lion's wild laughter resounded throughout Alabasta through the sound transmission shell.

"bring it on!"

The golden lion said loudly:

"Come to the central desert of Alabasta, I've prepared some good wine here!"

"Those who pass the strong men's conference are qualified to be my allies and conquer this sea with me!"

"Jie hahahaha!"

"..."

At this moment, all the pirates in Alabasta, one by one, began to take action.

…

Port city, rape flowers.

The group of people, who had been preparing for the battle for a long time, put on disguises and boarded Alabasta's unique transportation animal - the moving crab.

Starting from the rapeseed flower, we headed straight to the central desert of Alabasta!

"Alas!"

Uta stood at the front of the moving crabs, feeling the wind blowing against his face, and couldn't help but raise his hands.

This was her first real "big adventure" since she left Shanks, so she was naturally extremely excited.

Everything is so wonderful.

For example, the floating islands in the distant sky;

For example, on the other side, further away, is the huge "thundercloud" covering half of the sky!

"..."

"Golden Lion and Enelu have done some great things!"

Crocodile lit his cigar.

Although there was a child present, he was downwind after all, and the cigar smoke could not choke Uta, so the primitive people naturally had nothing to do with it.

He looked at the thundercloud further away and murmured:

"Enilu said before that he was 'charging electricity', which may be a special ability of the Thunder Fruit."

"Continuously accumulating lightning to enhance your combat effectiveness?"

The power of Thunder itself is impressive enough.

But Anilu chose to stay in Arupana to further "store electricity" for himself, which is enough to show the terrifying power of the Golden Lion.

"The so-called 'Conference of the Strong' is just an activity for the Golden Lion to screen alliance allies and establish its own prestige, right?"

Crocodile lowered his head and thought.

"I don't know how to play. The knockout rounds seem to be too long..."

"..."

"By the way, what is that primitive man doing?"

Crocodile turned to look.

I saw Lindsay fidgeting with her hands, making various weird gestures from time to time.

"This is wrong..."

"so?"

"It seems possible, but it's not very flexible..."

Lindsay muttered randomly.

Crocodile didn't know why, so he didn't think about it deeply.

…

Half a day later.

The floating islands and thunderclouds gradually became "clear".

Among the two, is the venue of the Powerful Conference - the desert in the center of Alabasta!

There is an ancient name here, also known as the "Sea of Death". The environment is extremely harsh, and even the locals dare not set foot in it easily.

Anyone who can make it all the way here must have certain abilities.

At this moment, many pirate groups have arrived here and are resting in place, waiting for the next step of the Golden Lion.

"..."

Not long after, news came from some people responsible for the lookout.

"Someone is here again!"

"Haha, who is it?"

"Just get rid of it!"

"..."

Everyone started talking about it, and then they saw a weird team.

two children, one older and one younger;

Two masked weirdos;

A red nose dressed as a clown;
