From Admiral to Gotei Thirteen

Weiwei likes to stick to Bell very much. Bell often transforms into a falcon and takes her to travel in the sky, so in many cases, when Cobra is busy, Bell will take care of the little princess Vivi and tell some bedtime stories , coax her to sleep or something.

After Bell heard Cobra's inquiry, he also had a smile on his face and said, "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the princess is already asleep." "I haven't had time to accompany her recently, she must have said a lot of bad things about me, right?" ?” Cobra smiled.

Bell also smiled with a slightly embarrassed expression. It was obvious that Vivi had often said bad things about Cobra.

"Oh, the situation in the country is getting worse and worse... I'm not a suitable person to be a king." Cobra said with some emotion, a little weakly.Bell said seriously after hearing the words: "Your Majesty, you are the most benevolent monarch I have ever seen. Alabasta cannot do without you."

But after a short pause, Bell suggested: "Regarding the domestic situation, I always think that Crocodile should be recruited to come to have an audience. If we set up an ambush and take him down, we may be able to quickly change the status quo." Do you still suspect that he is behind the scenes?" Cobra was silent for a while.

"There is no doubt that he must be behind the scenes." Bell said firmly.

Cobra fell silent, and turned his head to look at the window beside him. Outside was the bright moonlight of Alabasta, shining on the boundless desert.

"Your Majesty!" Bell couldn't help urging again.

Cobra sighed and said, "We have no evidence, Bell."

"Your Majesty, we don't need evidence. For this kind of thing, once we really need to find evidence, it will be too late..." Bell said anxiously.

Cobra's expression was a little hesitant, a little hesitant.

In the end, he still whispered: "Wait a little longer, look for it..."

In fact, few people know that it's not that Cobra doesn't want to touch Crocodile, he can also feel that the shadow behind this kingdom is Crocodile, the damn king Shichibukai.

And the reason why he showed hesitation and lack of decision-making power was actually because he was worried about his lack of ability to deal with Crocodile.

That's why he was obsessed with finding evidence. If there was sufficient evidence, he could ask the navy and Mary Gia for support.

Even if he knew that those bastards on Marie Georah might wish him bad luck, but at least Cobra felt that the Navy could still be trusted.

However, this requires evidence. If there is no evidence, according to the Shichibukai Act, the Navy has no right to respond to the Shichibuhai King.

At the same time, if there is no evidence to attack Crocodile, Cobra doubts whether the power in his hands can pose enough threat to Crocodile?

You know, this is the country of the desert.

One hair will affect the whole body, once he fails to attack Crocodile, he will definitely anger Crocodile completely, and give Crocodile a reason to resist him, the Naferutali clan may come to an end, and he The loyal subordinates around him will also die.

This is the reason why Cobra has never really made up his mind, he dare not act rashly, and his "benevolent" character, wanting to pursue an ending where no one will be hurt is too idealistic. "Your Majesty's hesitation is because you are not confident enough? Not confident enough to deal with such a terrifying big pirate as Crocodile?"

A strange, calm voice suddenly came to the ears of Cobra and Bell.

Cobra's expression was shocked, and Bell suddenly pulled out the saber from his waist, and came to Cobra's side in three or five steps, guarding him behind him.

The line of sight followed the sound to search, but there was no figure, as if the one who spoke just now was a ghost.

"Who!? Who is pretending to be a ghost? Come out!" Bell scolded angrily.

"I thought that Alabasta, as the oldest country of mankind, has one of the most powerful armies in the world, and its king should have extremely brave fighters, but at present, it seems that apart from ability, you don't seem to have any Is there something too good about it, domineering power, already lost in Alabasta?" That strange voice came to the ears of Cobra and Bell again.

But they still couldn't find any figure.

"Domineering?" Bell murmured with seriousness in his eyes.

Indeed, the domineering power of Alabasta has been lost, and that was all decades ago.

Bell hadn't been a member of the Guard at the time.

But the so-called domineering power is actually not very precious. If the royal family of Alabasta wants to find it, they can find a mature way to cultivate domineering in minutes from the New World.

But decades have passed, and this matter seems to have been ignored, no one cares at all, it's so outrageous.

As a result, in Alabasta, personal strength is generally low, and Bell, Cobra's personal bodyguard, is nothing more than that.

There must be a deeper reason behind this, but the fact is that the Alabastas hardly have mastery of domineering now.

Or maybe this is the ethos of the first half of the entire great route. In this big environment, everyone has never been exposed to domineering, so they naturally forget it?

"Who is your Excellency? What's the point of visiting late at night?" Cobra asked in a deep voice after he stabilized his mind.

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind swept in from the window and flipped a few pages of paper on the table.

Then, Cobra suddenly realized that a figure was standing beside him.

He was startled, and took two steps back, and the sharp blade in Bell's hand slammed down, cutting the figure in two.

But there was no blood, and there was no sound of screaming.

"Look, with such moves and means, how could 667 defeat someone like Crocodile in the desert country of Alabasta?" A calm and hoarse voice appeared behind Bell .

When Bell turned around, the figure grabbed his neck and lifted him up.At the same time, Bell also saw the appearance of this figure clearly, and said with anger in his eyes: "It's you!" "Monkey. D. Drago!" Cobra also said in surprise.

That's right, the person who subdued Bell at this time was the guy named Drago.

After being recognized, Drago released Bell again, then smiled and said, "This is the first time... no, it should be said, long time no see, Naferutali, Your Majesty Cobra." Cobb La's eyes were a bit complicated, but he still nodded at Dorag and said, "Yeah, I haven't seen you for a long time, Dorag." The last time he saw Dorag face to face like this was a long, long time ago , when Mary Joya participated in the World Conference.

At that time, Drago was still in the navy, and he, as a prince, went to visit Mary Joya.

"Your Majesty, this guy is very likely to be an accomplice to Crocodile, and he might come today in a bad way. I'll stop him," Bell said quickly.

Even if you are a little overwhelmed, this loyalty is unquestionable.

But before he finished speaking, Dorag smiled and said: "Don't get me wrong, I have nothing to do with Crocodile. In fact, I came to Alabasta this time because he offended our fate." Army, I heard that the internal situation in Alabasta is very strange because of the participation of our Song Ming Army? I can tell you responsibly that before this, the Song Ming Army did not have any cooperation with Crocodile. , are all Crocodile's conspiracy."

Cobra's expression brightened, and he asked in surprise, "Really?"

In fact, another reason why he didn't dare to move Crocodile was that he was worried that Crocodile would become a gang with the Geming Army.

Once Crocodile is moved, the Geming Army may launch a retaliatory action in Alabasta.

But now hearing that Dorag, the leader of the Songming Army, said that Crocodile had no connection with the Songming Army, Cobra also breathed a sigh of relief. .

Chapter 334 Those who are addicted to the past cannot grasp the future!

"Aren't you inviting me to sit down?" Drago suddenly smiled.

Cobra was silent for a while, and then said: "Excuse me, Mr. Dorag, please sit down..."

Seeing this, Bell took a few steps away from Cobra. Soon, Drago and Cobra sat face to face on the sofa, and Bell stood behind Cobra, looking very vigilant. .

"It's been a long time since I sat down with the real king of a country and communicated peacefully face to face." Drago said with a little emotion.

Cobra looked at Drago, and said with some emotion in his tone: "After all, you are the most vicious criminal now. As far as I know, the number of kings who died at your hands already has double digits." "Accurate To put it bluntly, it's seventeen." Drago said with a smile.

"That's right, the kings of the seventeen confederated countries were overthrown and killed by you, so how can there be a king who is willing to sit down and talk to you in such a calm manner when faced with a person with such atrocities and experience as you? said Cobra.

"Isn't there just such a king in front of me?" Drago said meaningfully.

After a slight pause, he added: "Not all kings are like His Majesty Cobra, who are loved by people. In fact, the vast majority of royal families are disgusted." "It's amazing to be praised by you," Cobra said.

There was also a slight pause, and Cobra continued: "So at least it seems that you are not here to overthrow my throne?" "The so-called overthrow of the throne is just a means. My purpose has never been here ’” Dorag said, shaking his head.

"So, what's your purpose? I've always been curious about what you Gemingjun are going to do?" Cobra asked a very interested question.

For a time, this weird meeting did not involve Alabasta, nor did it involve Crocodile. The leader of the Songming Army and the king of Alabasta seemed to be peacefully discussing some metaphysical things.

"A new era, or a new world?" Drago rubbed his chin, and then, without waiting for Cobra to speak, he continued: "Marie Joa's rule lasted 800 years, and now I think even if I don’t tell you, you know about it, Cobra, right? And as one of the descendants of the twenty kings, you must also know that the twenty kings who once created the world’s talisman, The expected world is not what it is today, right? The void throne hanging above Marie Gioia represents equal rights, but now? Although no one is sitting on that throne, that throne is also It has lost its meaning!"

Cobra was silent for a while. As a descendant of the twenty kings and a member of the Naferutali clan, Cobra knew more or less the mysteries of Mariejoia, and one of them was particularly important.

That is, even Drago thinks that the empty throne that no one is sitting on actually has an owner.

It’s just that Cobra didn’t need to tell Drago about this kind of thing. After he glanced at Drago, he asked, “So your idea is to break this decayed and depraved world, and to create a new one.” order, just like the twenty kings back then?"

"Almost, actually, when I was young, I had many novel ideas, for example, from now on, the path of the twenty kings has come to an end, and it is obviously not correct, so I thought back then, The path of the twenty kings is wrong, so will the force, the country, and the person who were against the twenty kings be correct? Therefore, there is For a while, I thought about whether I should dig out that history, let me see the truth, and see where the road blocked by twenty kings leads... ". "Dorag said with a slightly sad tone.

"I've thought about it before, so the meaning of this sentence means that you didn't do it in the end, right?" Cobra asked again.

"That's right." Drago nodded, then said with a smile: "Because I met a friend, in fact, I really want to call him a close friend, in my opinion, his thinking is far beyond mine, his Talent and wisdom, his strength and wrist, all must be said with a smile, and there is indeed a bit of regret in his tone.

"Then I guess, this person should be the current admiral Rodriguez Diarmuid, right?" Cobra asked.

"That's right." Drago nodded, then smiled and said: "Unfortunately, we can't be close friends after all. We appreciate each other, but we still have to calculate each other." In fact, Drago is not like As Diarmuid said, he thought Smoker was from Marie Gioia.

In fact, he had already discovered that Smoker was a member of the navy, and he had suspected even the His Majesty's Shichibukai plan for a long time.

It's just that through these calculations, he finally felt that no matter what the navy wanted to do, at least at this stage, there was no conflict with his Geming army. On the contrary, it could help the Geming army to a certain extent.

Moreover, once the navy is out of the system of the world's Zhengfu, it seems easier for the Geming army to clean up and fight against Marie Gioia?

So in the end, after thinking for a long time, Drago decided to treat it as if he hadn't seen it through. On the contrary, he could take advantage of this general trend to gain some benefits for the Geming army.

"That's really regrettable," Cobra replied.

"Fortunately, at least it's not an enemy. To be honest, even I feel very unworthy of being an enemy of someone like him." Drago joked with a smile.

Cobra just nodded and didn't answer.

Afterwards, Drago continued: "Because I met Diarmuid, that guy brought me a lot of novel thoughts. Maybe there is a saying that he said, but he has forgotten it, but he must not know it. , That sentence had such an impact on me."

"What?" Cobra also asked with great interest.

"If you want to create a new order and world, those who are obsessed with the past will inevitably fail. Those who can really change the world will never stick to the past. What they pursue are the feet and the future." Dora Ge said in a very serious tone.

Cobra frowned slightly, and after savoring it, he nodded and said, "It makes sense." "Yes, that's what I said, it completely shook my previous thinking." Drago said.

His eyes became a little misty, and he continued: "People who are addicted to the past will never be able to create a new future. I suddenly discovered that I wanted to pursue the blank 100-year history, and I wanted to find the so-called "Correct" is so meaningless. I was born in this era, why should I insist on the results of 800 years ago? Therefore, I chose the foot and the future... Just like him, he is doing something now , something that no one has been able to do for 800 years..."

Soon, Drago restrained his thoughts, and then looked at Cobra with sincerity and said: "I have said so much, but I actually want to tell His Majesty Cobra one thing, that is, today , I came here for my feet and the future, Cobra looked at Drago in silence, and then said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I don't intend to put the future on you Gemingjun..."

"This answer did not exceed my expectations." Drago nodded first.

In fact, the vast majority of kings would not be able to put their future on the Geming Army, let alone Dorag came to say some plausible words, and Cobra would just accept his head and bow.

"But I'm still here." Drago said again, and after a short pause, he looked at Cobra and asked, "Then, Your Majesty Cobra, why did I know that you would give such an answer, but Do you still want to come?" "Why?" Cobra asked with a slightly serious look in his eyes.

"Because, you have no choice." Drago grinned and said with a slightly evil smile.

"Presumptuous!" Bell scolded angrily.

Cobra raised his hand, stopped the angry Bell, and then said: "Your Excellency Dorag, why do you think I have no choice? "

"The Naferutali clan are traitors to the [-] kings. The people on Mary Gioia hate you to the bone. Although I don't know why, let them tolerate your Naferutali clan in Arabah Stan has continued into this era, but I think they must be happy to see you unlucky, right?" Drago asked with a smile.

Cobra didn't speak.

Drago didn't care, but continued: "Crocodile, although he failed in the New World, but because of this failure, he became more delicate and rigorous, so, with his means And ability, it is difficult for you to compete with him, and at the same time, it is difficult to find his handle, there is no ability to resist, and there is no handle to check and balance, you cannot get outside assistance, and the relationship with Mary Joya is very bad...”

Every time Dorag said something, Cobra's face became ugly.

Because what Drago said is exactly the problem Alabasta is facing.

Alone and helpless, and unable to protect itself.

"The fall of Dressrosa, Tenyasha. Don Quixote. Doflamingo has become the new king of Dressrosa. His Majesty Cobra must have felt very heavy when he saw this newspaper." ? In my opinion, this may be the hammer that broke the last spine of Alabasta." Drago said in a very relaxed tone.

On the contrary, Cobra's expression was very serious.

That's right, Doflamingo grandiosely became the king of Dressrosa. This matter seems to have nothing to do with Alabasta, but it has brought extremely heavy pressure to Cobra, because this It opened a precedent for pirates to usurp the country, but Marie Gioia has no intention of intervening (Wang Wang Zhao) at all!

In other words, Doflamingo is a role model for Crocodile.

The fate of King Riku is Nafiru Tali.Cobra's fate!

"Enough..." Cobra interrupted Drago with a slightly heavy tone.

But Drago didn't care, and still said to himself: "King of the desert. King of Crocodile and Alabasta. Your Majesty Cobra, the duel between you two will soon reach the end. No matter from what point of view, I have not found your chances of winning. If you follow this process, one day, Naferutali will become the past and history of Alabasta, and Crocodile will become the new The future of the future... Then, benevolent His Majesty Cobra, do you hope to hand over the oldest kingdom of mankind to pirates, or do you hope to find a new future with me, the 'world's most ferocious criminal'? What about a new order, reforging Alabasta?"

When these words fell, Drago's figure had already turned into a breeze and disappeared from Cobra's sight.

"I will come again, after a week, I hope that your Majesty Cobra can think carefully about what is the future of the Naferutali clan and what is the future of Alabasta during this week. "After the room became quiet and silent, Cobra's breathing seemed so heavy.Bell couldn't bear to look at his king, and said softly: "Your Majesty..."

"Bell...let me be quiet for a while..." Cobra waved his hand, interrupting Bell's words.

Chapter 335 is from Nicole Robin's plea for help.

The ancient island.small garden.

Two huge figures were fighting around the erupting volcano, holding old battle axes and machetes, wantonly venting their power.

These two figures are the former captains of the giant soldier pirates who have disappeared from the world for almost 100 years.

Green ghost.Dongli, the red ghost.Brocky.

More than a hundred years ago, their bounties were each [-] million Berries.

Although it doesn't look very good in this era, it is because of inflation. Now Bailey is worthless at all, especially the bounty offered by pirates. It changes every year. Whatever cat or dog, do something When the news comes out, if you do it a little more brutally, you can get a bounty of hundreds of millions of Baileys.

But more than 100 years ago, [-] million Berries could definitely be called a real big pirate.

For almost 100 years, Dongli and Broki have been fighting each other, vying for who has the biggest prey and who is stronger.  …This kind of thing sounds boring.

But there is no doubt that after fighting for more than a hundred years, the strength of Broki and Dongli is obviously stronger than that of more than a hundred years ago.
