The two of them were so busy that they had to face each other.

"Finally, I found you!"

Luffy looked at Crocodile, raised his mouth and said:

"Crocodile, I'm going to knock you away!!!"

[Armament-hardening]

[Rubber rubber-gun!!! 】

This time Luffy took the lead, and the armed color domineering covered his right fist.

The fist was like a spring, shooting towards Crocodile.

Puff!

After a slight sound, Luffy's arm actually went straight through Crocodile's body.

It didn't cause him any harm like before.

Retracting his arm, Luffy's eyes looking at Crocodile also changed.

Before the attack came, he made room for the elementalization?

"You little brat, do you think you can do whatever you want after learning Haki?"

Crocodile's voice sounded, full of disdain and ridicule.

While removing the quicksand arm that was pinching Robin, he condensed a sharp blade in his right hand again.

"You're still far away!!!"

[Desert Sword! ]

Countless quicksands condensed to form a huge blade.

And slashed fiercely in the direction of Luffy.

Seeing this, Luffy's eyes condensed, and he held down his straw hat and jumped up to avoid the attack.

Bang! ! !

The blade made of quicksand was extremely sharp.

In Alabasta, the stone floor of the historic funeral hall was split in two by this giant blade.

[Armament - Hardening]

[Rubber Rubber - Whip]

Luffy's right foot covered with armed color was again driven by his extended right leg and kicked hard at Crocodile's waist.

Still useless!

The right leg swept past, and Crocodile had already performed the elemental transformation.

What followed was Crocodile's counterattack.

[Quicksand Binding!!!]

Bang!

Under Luffy's feet, the quicksand suddenly lifted the stone floor.

In the blink of an eye, it gathered into a huge circular cage.

It seemed that Luffy was about to be caught in the jar.

Luffy exerted force with his feet, burst out with extreme speed again, and broke out of the ground at the last second before the cage closed.

He looked at Crocodile, his eyes were still firm, but he was also a little more thoughtful.

Since the straight punch didn't hit, he would change his moves.

Luffy exerted force with his feet again to avoid Crocodile's attack.

The two arms stretched back again, and then-

[Armament-Hardening]

[Rubber Rubber-Shotgun!!!]

The arms shot out suddenly with the help of spring elasticity, and then Luffy began to shake his shoulders.

The straight outstretched arm instantly turned into a wave.

Then, Luffy's fists also became erratic.

"Hmph!!!"

Crocodile snorted coldly, and chose to take it hard again? ! ! !

Puff! ! !

After two light sounds, history repeated itself.

Luffy's fist covered with Armament Haki pierced through his chest again.

This time Luffy seemed to be mentally prepared.

The arm retracted, the spring was tightened, and it was hit again.

This time -

[Armament - Hardening]

[Rubber Rubber - Machine Gun! ! ! ]

This is Luffy's move of quickly punching the enemy with his fists.

Not only is the speed faster, but the force of the hit is also greater.

Because there is no need to control the direction, you can focus on the strength.

Puff puff puff...!

A series of familiar sounds sounded, and history repeated itself again and again.

"Don't you understand yet?"

Crocodile's voice sounded, he knelt on one knee, pressed his right palm on the ground, and shouted softly:

[Desert Greatsword! ]

Swish!!!

A hilt made of quicksand suddenly shot out from behind Luffy.

Even Luffy, who had awakened his observation Haki, could not fully react.

The blade cut across Luffy's right shoulder, leaving a deep cut.

Blood flowed down his arm, and Luffy's eyes became more solemn.

Crocodile stood up, and countless quicksands lifted him up.

He stood in the air and looked down at Luffy:

"As long as I can see your attack."

"It can make it 'invalid', after all--"

Crocodile said this, and he was also a little relieved.

"Your Armament Haki is still very weak! Hahahaha!!!"

Before he finished speaking, Crocodile attacked again.

He raised his right hand horizontally, making a virtual lifting motion.

Quicksand began to gather in his hand and gradually began to rotate around a point.

In the blink of an eye, a small sandstorm appeared in Crocodile.

Formed in his hand.

[Sand Storm!!]

Crocodile threw the small tornado in the direction of Luffy.

As the sandstorm moved forward, the tornado actually grew against the wind!!!

When it came to Luffy, it had become a sandstorm three people high.

Wild sand filled the sky, and gravel swept across!

In a space like the Funeral Hall, Luffy had nowhere to escape!

[Armament-Hardening]

Luffy flew back quickly, while covering his arms with armed color, trying to block the vital parts.

But even so, the power generated by natural disasters such as sandstorms was not something Luffy could stop now.

Swish~~~

The gravel in the sandstorm left scars on Luffy's body again and again.

Blood also spurted out again and again, and when the sandstorm stopped.

Luffy's appearance had become quite miserable.

Fortunately, Luffy had a special physique, and Bai Ye's marrow cleansing pill further improved it.

Luffy looked like he was covered in blood, but in fact, he only suffered superficial injuries.

If Chopper had come a little later, Luffy's wounds would have healed.

He slowly raised his head, looked at Crocodile, and said:

"Then, just make you 'invisible'."

Hearing this, Crocodile frowned.

Before he could understand what this meant, Luffy's body suddenly changed.

He took a horse stance, one hand on his knee, and the other hand pressed to the ground.

His feet began to pump air all over his body like a water pump.

Then, Luffy's skin began to turn red and steam came out.

"This kid..."

Crocodile muttered to himself, even if he was just observing, he could feel it.

What kind of power is hidden in Luffy's body.

Crocodile felt a little flustered for no reason.

[Desert Knife!!!]

The sharp blade in his right hand slashed down again!

Bang!

The next second, Crocodile's eyes widened.

Because just now, the boy in front of him disappeared instantly.

More importantly, this time, he did not catch any trace of movement.

There are only two possibilities for this situation.

First, the boy used teleportation or invisibility.

This is obviously impossible.

As for the second...

Crocodile has already thought of the worst case.

The guy's speed was too fast, and he had completely lost sight of him.

Subconsciously, Crocodile turned around.

A red figure stood on the ground behind him.

Steam was constantly discharged from his body.

Then, Luffy raised his head and looked directly at Crocodile, and opened his mouth to exhale a breath of hot air.

Slowly opened his mouth and said:

"Second Gear!"
