Chapter 365
Chapter 365
Seeing someone approaching.
The ten guards stationed at the entrance of the palace immediately drew their long swords and stared at the two people approaching the palace with vigilance.
As the distance got closer, one of the guards also saw the face of the person coming and recognized the identity of the man walking in front.
"Mr. Crocodile."
"You are here."
"Please wait a moment, I will inform His Majesty the King."
After recognizing Crocodile's identity, the guard immediately put his weapon back into the sheath.
Not only him, but also his colleagues and the two rows of guards stationed at the entrance of the palace and on the top of the city wall who had already raised their rifles also put away their vigilance.
Although the Utopia Operation Plan has not yet been implemented, Crocodile has already created a heroic identity in Alabasta over the years.
As a soldier stationed in the palace, when faced with Crocodile coming alone, even if the other party was a pirate, his first reaction was not to be on guard, but to greet him, and then, regardless of the purpose of the other party's visit, he asked the other party to wait for a moment, and he immediately went to inform the king.
This is the weight of Crocodile in Alabasta.
"Notify King Cobra?"
"No need."
"I will go to see him myself."
After hearing this, Crocodile glanced at the ten guards in front of him, and then at the hundreds of guards on the wall above. The corners of his mouth slowly opened, revealing a creepy smile:
"Desert Sword!"
Before the guards in front of him could react, he had already raised his arm and swung it. The giant sand blade mixed with a trace of purple light split the palace gate, and also split the wall standing in front of him, blocking his way.
As for the two guards closest to Crocodile, although they were not hit directly by the Desert Sword, the shock wave caused by breaking the palace wall and gate directly swept ten people away.
"Why?"
"Mr. Crocodile!"
Faced with the sudden change, because the wall collapsed, the gate cracked, and the guards were all in disbelief.
They didn't understand why Crocodile, a hero of Alabasta, would suddenly attack the palace.
"I've already fought my way to the palace, don't you understand?"
"That's what I mean."
"The game of heroes ends here."
Crocodile looked around and looked at the soldiers who came after hearing the news. He opened his arms:
"Next."
"You are facing the King of the Desert."
"Sand Crocodile."
"Not some hero of Alabasta!"
After saying this in a playful tone, Crocodile spread out his right hand, condensed a palm-sized sandstorm in his palm, and then threw it away.
Boom
After the sandstorm flew out of his hand, it immediately surged more than a hundred times, turning into a violent sandstorm that rushed straight into the sky. Whether it was the guards who attacked with knives or the guards who were about to shoot at him, everything that tried to stop him from moving forward and preventing him from obtaining the existence of Hades was swallowed by the desert tornado, rolled up to the sky, and then flew hundreds of meters away.
"Crocodile!"
"What do you want to do?"
Just as Crocodile was killing people at the entrance of the palace, Perru, the adjutant of the Kingdom Guard, transformed into a falcon flying in the sky and rushed to the scene at the fastest speed.
Seeing the collapsed city walls, the split city gates, and the many guards lying on the ground, he turned his head and stared at Crocodile, his eyes seemed to shoot out two sharp cold stars.
"Conquer Alabasta."
Crocodile glanced at Perru, who he wanted to see the most, and after throwing a word, he stepped forward and grabbed the opponent's throat with one hand.
"Flying claw."
Facing Crocodile's attack, Perru was shocked and calm. He transformed into a human beast in mid-air and flapped his wings to avoid Crocodile's grasping palm.
With the air control ability of the Animal-type Bird-Bird Fruit Falcon Form, he dodged while dragging a stunning arc in the air, and then circled behind Crocodile like a gust of wind.
Clang
A pair of sharp claws clasped Crocodile's back of the head with lightning speed.
Crack
The powerful claw force that could crush granite instantly burst out, crushing Crocodile's head on the spot.
However.
The head was shattered, and what sprayed out was not blood or brain matter, but sand.
Not only that.
In the last second, the head was still shattered into sand, and in the next second, the sand in the sky reunited into Crocodile's head.
"Guhahahaha."
"Just an animal type, can it stop me?"
Crocodile grinned, and then the elements of his arm turned into sand, and he swung a crescent-shaped sand blade backhand, slashingon Peru behind him.
Swish
After being slashed by the sand blade, Peru was not ripped open like the collapsed city gate.
Strictly speaking, he was not hurt at all.
Only at the moment when he was hit by the sand blade, all the water in his body was drained away, and then he turned into a dry half-falcon, half-human mummy, falling from mid-air to the ground.
The adjutant of the Kingdom Guard, who was known as Falcon Peru.
Killed instantly.
"Peru!"
At this time.
Another adjutant of the Royal Palace Guard, Gaga, who was one of the guardians of Alabasta with Peru, had just arrived at the scene with many guards.
What came into view was Peru who had been drained of water, and many guards who fell to the ground after being blown away by the sandstorm.
"Crocodile!"
Gaga saw this scene, how could he not know that all this was done by Crocodile.
At this point, he was too lazy to ask the other party's purpose. Just because the man in front of him dared to attack the Alabasta Palace and kill so many guards, only one of the two sides could stand.
"Kill!"
Gaka roared.
The hundreds of guards accompanying him immediately raised their guns and fired.
Bang bang bang bang
Accompanied by a dense wave of gunfire, the sky was full of bullets like a rain of pear blossoms, drowning Crocodile's body.
Puff
Accompanied by a series of bullets hitting the flesh, Crocodile's body had nearly a hundred bullet holes, but what flowed out of the bullet holes was sand, not blood.
"Desert Sunflower!"
After enduring a wave of bullets, the smile on Crocodile's face became more and more ferocious.
He ignored the many guards present, and slowly leaned over and pressed his hands on the ground.
Shasha
In an instant.
The ground trembled and collapsed, and the rock layer shattered into sand.
The ground of the palace suddenly turned into quicksand that devoured all life. All the guards who did not have the ability to fly could not escape. Their legs were wrapped by the quicksand, and then they were dragged into the sand dunes and quickly buried deep in the earth.
"Damn it!"
Facing the expanding quicksand, Gaga jumped up and transformed into a huge jackal that was more powerful than a tiger. He jumped over the sand dunes and pounced in front of Crocodile.
He opened his mouth wide and bit the opponent's neck with his sharp fangs.
"Are you still not giving up?"
"I've already said it."
"You are just an animal."
Crocodile glanced at Gaga coldly.
Although being bitten was not painful for him as a natural sand-sand fruit ability user, it more or less damaged his image.
At this time, there were still ten years before the future battle with King Luffy.
Although like Gekko Moriah, he wasted years in Paradise because of his defeat to Edward Newgate, and his strength declined, but he has not declined to the time period at the beginning of the original work.
The time difference is ten years, and the strength is also very different.
"Desert Great Sword!"
Crocodile maintained a posture of leaning over and pressing the ground with his hands, but when Gaga's fangs were about to bite him, a sharp blade suddenly rushed out of the moving sand dunes.
Puff
The desert blade that rose from the ground, wrapped in the sharp edge that penetrated the rock layer, pierced Gaga in mid-air and hung in mid-air.
"You!"
As an animal-type ability user, even if he is an ordinary species and has not awakened the fruit, his vitality is not to be underestimated.
A normal person who suffered the penetrating damage of the desert great sword would have died instantly, but Gaga just vomited blood, and the wound was bleeding profusely. His body could not move. He did not die, but glared at Crocodile with gnashing teeth.
"That's it."
"Of course."
"Not just you, but Alabasta as well."
Crocodile stared at Gaga, his eyes revealing a murderous light that was ready to kill anyone.
"Desert Prison!"
Crocodile reached out and pressed down Gaga's wolf head, draining all the water from his body.
Either do it or do it to the extreme.
Since he had decided to gamble everything, he would not hesitate to capture Alabasta and obtain the ancient weapon Pluto before the navy reacted and Rosen put a collar on him.
If anyone stands in his way, he would kill them.
If anyone stands in his way, he would kill them.
For the already rampaging Crocodile, anything that stood in his way, no matter who it was, would be ruthlessly destroyed.
