Chapter 310
In the palace!
Just as millions of people were fighting below, above, all the Straw Hat Pirates gathered to confront Crocodile, one of Seven Warlords!
In the course of fighting against the baroque senior agents, everyone was wounded, but they also made their own progress. Even though they were exhausted, everyone rushed here as quickly as possible.
Just because their partners are here and they need their help, they will be here. Although this situation is difficult now, and it is impossible to be the opponent of the last big boss Crocodile, they still rushed over.
However, since the captain is here, then the last big boss has to be handed over to the captain. After all, if the captain’s opponent is the captain, doesn’t that make much more sense?
Compared to the happy Vivi, Crocodile’s face is not as proud as before, and it is even more ugly, and there is speechless anger.
Especially seeing the newbie pirates in his eyes come here alive, indicating that the senior agents under his own have been resolved.
It even made Crocodile very upset. He had selected senior agents, but in the end they were all resolved, not even one was killed, even Mr1 was the same.
Among them, what shocked Crocodile the most was that Lin Tian’s appearance, even if Luffy didn’t die before, was completely washed away by the shock of seeing Lin Tian.
One is a former marine genius, and the other is one of the Seven Warlords. The two are not without communication at all. Although there are not many opportunities to get to know each other, they have already investigated everything.
After seeing Lin Tian, Crocodile finally understood what the bad premonition in his heart was because of the arrival of this guy before him.
The appearance of this variable is the root cause of my feeling ill at ease. It is precisely because I understand Lin Tian that I can know the power of Lin Tian, whether it is his mind or means.
Finally seeing the one culprit who single-handedly flipped Arabasta, Lin Tian smiled faintly, as if meeting between old acquaintances.
With a faint smile, he said: “Oh Crocodile? I haven’t seen you for years, don’t you recognize me?”
Hearing Lin Tian’s opening, Crocodile Withdrawing his mind, he calmly replied: retracted his thoughts and replied calmly: “Your face makes me very sick, especially at this time and at this important moment, even if you turn to ashes; I can still recognize you. To be honest, I was shocked for a while when I heard that you betrayed Marine. Didn’t expect that as Marine’s genius, you rebelled against Marine and killed World n.o.bles, which really hit the face of the navy’s headquarters.”
In the words that seemed to be talking about Marine Headquarters, they actually satirized Lin Tian’s ridicule. Back then, the Marine genius betrayed Marine. No matter how you put it, it is a great black spot.
However, Lin Tian didn’t show any signs of anger at all. There was still a faint smile on his face. As if relying on simple language to let him be confused didn’t help much.
For such a simple verbal attack, Lin Tian only replied indifferently: “There are some things Marine Headquarters have done too much, so about that betrayal, that kind of rules and regulations are really not suitable for me, I still prefer freedom.”
“Freedom, haha…” Crocodile burst into laughter, with deep irony in his words, “The Marine genius back then has become a pirate. Perhaps what awaits you is not freedom, but World Government’s anger.”
Lifting head, looking at Crocodile in front of him, “This isn’t something you should consider at this moment. Try thinking how to survive first. I am a person who keeps promises.”
“Promise,” Nami and the others next to Nami and the others listened to the conversation between the two, and looked puzzled. Why did the conversation reach the promise again? What are they talking about?
Without Lin Tian’s words, Crocodile instantly understood the meaning of Lin Tian’s words. Anyone who dares to make trouble in this country, no matter who it is, is challenging Lin Tian’s authority and facing his wrath.
After cautiously and secretly calculating this country for so many years, he has never revealed his ident.i.ty, and only a couple of the thousands of people in the entire Baroque Works Organization knows his ident.i.ty.
The big reason for all of this is Lin Tian. Although Crocodile was also one of the Seven Warlords, in some respects, he was also a World Government member.
Compared with Lin Tian, the Marine genius, he is far worse. Not only was Lin Tian a Marine Vice Admiral, but also Marine’s influential figure, the superficial signboard of World Government, and he is very powerful.
Crocodile is just a partner. He’s just being used. Because Lin Tian is behind Arabasta, Crocodile can only hide in the dark.
Cautiously doing things, in the past, Crocodile just wanted to mess up this country and get Poneglyph, and never thought of conspiring this country at the same time.
Because, even if he really messed up, if Lin Tian, who has great power, takes action, plus Cobra, a high-sounding king, they can easily suppress the rebellion.
The most important thing is that he will be investigated later. At that time, he must lose his ident.i.ty as one of the Seven Warlords, wander on the Grand Line, and face the full pursuit of Marine Headquarters and the World Government.
And everything changed after Lin Tian betrayed Marine, the powerful Marine genius turned into a stray dog overnight, which is the truest portrayal of Lin Tian.
All worries are gone. Crocodile’s ambition for years has finally exploded. With the chess pieces buried for many years, the entire Arabasta is facing the danger of extinction in just one year.
Now, Lin Tian reappears at this juncture, disrupting all his years of plans. Now, as Lin Tian said, he is not considering whether the plan can be realized or not anymore.
In a blink of an eye, Crocodile has already a.n.a.lyzed the situation in front of him, although the idea of winning this country will certainly not be realized.
But I didn’t lose much. From the beginning, his main purpose was the ancient weapon Pluton, the weapon that would allow him to gain the invincible power of the world.
As long as you get something like that, even if you leave the country and stay silent for a period of time, when you are born, there will be no man in the world to stop you, not even this man.
After figuring it out, Crocodile immediately calmed down a lot, and returned to the previous triumphant smile on his face. Now he can hold the strongest card in his hand.
“Really? Lin Tian, do you think just these novices can deal with me? I am a little too underestimated,” Crocodile asked rhetorically.
No no no!
Shaking his fingers, Lin Tian repeated several times. “There are a few points you made wrong. They are not some novices, but a group of people who come to defeat you. As one of Seven Warlords, you will be their stepping stones of their fame in Grand Line. Second point, don’t worry, I won’t miss the battle this time. Everything is up to them. Oh… and third, I’m a person who keeps my promises.”
Hahaha……
Crocodile laughed, his eyes were still full of faint anger, Lin Tian’s words of fact, in his ears, were undoubtedly the greatest disdain and mockery.
“You actually think that these newbies can deal with me, even if you don’t want to shoot yourself, Lin Tian, that’s a bit too arrogant. The place you became famous is in this Grand Line.” With the cigar in his mouth, he pointed his finger at Luffy and the others in front of him, with a very disdainful tone, “As for the newcomers who have just entered the Grand Line, you think they can beat me, Lin Tian, have you gone insane?”
“Really? I don’t think I’m crazy, I’m just stating a fact.”
With his hands folded together, Luffy said in a calm voice, “I lost a game to you yesterday, but today I’m not the same as yesterday, this battle is not over yet, let me beat you up today, Crocodile!”
That confident and angry language, even if Crocodile’s face can’t help but change, the whole person is stunned. The ridiculous words seemed to carry a unique charm, even as an enemy, he was impressed.
Crocodile is so determined, and in a blink of an eye, he expelled the extra thoughts in his mind, his eyes were fixed on the boy in front of him.
Then he lifted his hand, raised the hook in his hand, and pointed to Luffy, “Little demon, it seems that after you took a trip to h.e.l.l, you haven’t learned your lesson. I have been holding back this whole time. This is not your gentle hometown. I am different from those pirates. The gap between us is huge.”
Lifting a fist, Luffy made a usual attacking action, “I said it, today I am different from the past.”
Hearing this, Crocodile couldn’t help but stunned, and then his face was distorted with anger, his tone was full of murderous aura, “little demon, it seems that yesterday’s experience has not allowed you to experience the feeling of death properly, some things cannot be realized only by talking, only strength is everything.”
At this moment, after saying these words, Crocodile put away his anger, his face returned to calm, his eyes turned to Lin Tian who was watching the good show on the side, and said.
“Negotiate, Lin Tian!”
