While Nami is still young, invite her to join my ship!

Ningchuan and his companions had just stepped onto the streets of Alabasta.

They saw a large group of people gathered in front of them, seemingly listening to a speech.

If you see something lively, you can join in.

Ningchuan would not miss it.

On his shoulders sat Uta and Kuina, respectively, and he held Nami in one hand and Nokiko in the other.

He pushed aside the crowd that was blocking the way and squeezed to the center.

When Ningchuan cast his eyes to the center of the speech.

He saw a familiar figure that immediately caught his eye!

Ningchuan knew the man who was giving a speech on the stage!

He had a shiny slicked back hair and a huge scar on his face that stretched from his left ear to his right ear.

He had a cigar in his mouth and replaced his left hand with a shiny golden hook!

The moment he saw this man, Ningchuan immediately recognized his identity!

Isn't this Crocodile who is more than ten years younger?

He calculated the time.

It was discovered that this was the time when Crocodile was defeated by Whitebeard.

He had to temporarily retreat to Alabasta, preparing to survive and overthrow the Alabasta Dynasty.

As for Crocodile's history of origin.

Ningchuan was naturally very clear.

When he looked at Crocodile again.

Ningchuan couldn't help but smile.

Sure enough, he guessed right!

At this time, Crocodile was standing on the stage and giving a speech.

And under him, there was a large group of pirates who were defeated by him.

Ningchuan knew very well that Crocodile did this to take advantage of his achievements in fighting pirates in Alabasta.

To create a heroic image for himself.

To pave the way for the next plan!

Crocodile wanted to win the trust of the people of Alabasta in this way.

Then use dancing powder that can interfere with the weather and prevent natural rainfall.

Let the Alabasta Kingdom, which already has little rain, directly usher in a terrible drought!

Finally, with the help of the disaster, he began to overthrow the Alabasta Dynasty!

Let him become the new ruler of Alabasta!

Recalling the plot of the original work.

Ningchuan couldn't help but smile and said to Nami and the others.

"It seems that our timing in Alabasta is really coincidental. We just happened to run into this ambitious guy who is about to start making trouble."

Hearing Ningchuan's words, Nami asked curiously.

"Who is this person? Do you know him?"

"He is Crocodile."

"A very dangerous and ambitious guy!"

"Don't pretend to be a hero in Alabasta now, but in fact he has greater ambitions. He wants to overthrow the Alabasta dynasty and become the king himself!"

Hearing Ningchuan's words.

Kuina clenched the sword in her hand and looked at Crocodile with a vigilant face.

"Then what should we do? Expose him directly?"

Ningchuan shook his head.

"No hurry, there is still a long time before his plan is implemented."

"Let's play here for a few days first, and it won't be too late to give him a good beating before leaving."

After that, Ning Chuan led the four people out of the crowd.

Just as they left.

Crocodile's eyes were directly fixed on Ning Chuan.

Because the words he just said were heard by Crocodile who had not forgotten the observation Haki!

At this time, Crocodile was very shocked!

I remember that I have never told anyone about this plan.

But what he couldn't figure out was.

How did the boy with four little girls know his final plan?

"No!"

"After the speech, I must find him to investigate this matter!"

Crocodile has already regarded Ning Chuan as a great enemy in his heart!

However, he did not stop because of this matter while he was giving a speech.

Not long after, Crocodile's speech was coming to an end.

I saw him waving the golden hook in his hand and assuring everyone who was listening to his speech.

"As long as I am here, these pirates will never think of the land of Tatu Alabasta!"

"Come one, I will take him down!"

"Come a ship, I will destroy them all!"

The speech ended.

Warm applause broke out in the crowd!

Many ordinary citizens of Alabasta began to be grateful to Crocodile.

Since this Shichibukai came to their Alabasta.

The public security of the entire Alabasta is much better than before!

He is much more powerful than the useless Kingdom Army and Navy in fighting pirates!

After the crowd dispersed, Crocodile glanced at the direction where Ningchuan and the others disappeared.

He snorted in his heart and instantly turned into dust and left the place where the speech was given....

After leaving the crowd, Ningchuan smiled and said to Nami and the others.

"Let's find a place to stay first!"

"After we find a place to stay, we'll start shopping!"

Soon, Ningchuan and the others found the most luxurious hotel near the port.

After all, they have been drifting on the sea for so long.

You can't treat yourself badly!

After putting away the luggage they carried.

Ningchuan and the other five happily walked out of the hotel.

Begin to seriously experience the beautiful desert style!

At the same time.

Crocodile, who turned into dust and disappeared, did not go directly to trouble Ningchuan and the others.

Instead, he came to the port very cautiously.

He saw the ship docked at the port with the portraits of Ningchuan and the other five people painted on it!

"This should be the ship of those little guys, right?"

"Go up and take a look. Where did these little monsters come from?"

"You can actually guess my plan directly!"

Do it as soon as you say it.

Crocodile took advantage of the fact that there was no one around.

Once again, he activated his devil fruit ability.

He turned into countless sand and dust and floated towards Ningchuan and his boat.

However, what Crocodile didn't expect was that.

As soon as he approached Ningchuan and his boat, he immediately felt a terrifying and dangerous aura coming towards him!

He hadn't figured out what was going on yet.

A terrifying voice came to his ears!

"Swish!"

A sword light flew directly towards Crocodile's position.

If it weren't for his observation Haki that predicted the danger in advance.

This terrifying sword light would have fallen on him!

Crocodile moved his body suddenly, allowing his vitals to avoid this fatal sword energy.

However, his arm was still cut by this sword energy.

Leaving a cut several centimeters long.

"Sword energy with armed Haki?"

"Who is it?"

Crocodile narrowed his eyes and looked at the place where the sword energy came from.

He originally thought that there was a swordsman staying on Ningchuan's ship.

But what he didn't expect was.

There was no human figure on the ship at all.

There was only a sword floating above the boat!
