Chapter 311
What!
At the palace, when they heard Crocodile’s sudden speech, everyone was stunned and couldn’t believe what they had just heard.
The next moment, several exclamations sounded, and everyone’s faces were shocked, staring at Crocodile’s calm face, as if something was wrong, proving that the person was just joking.
Unfortunately, with no sense of joking on his face, they had to admit to themselves that what they heard just now was true, there was nothing wrong, it was indeed true.
“What the h.e.l.l is going on, is it true what I heard just now?” Sanji was smoking a cigarette, yet he didn’t react from the shock just now.
Usopp still looks dumbfounded, “It’s not what you hear is true, but it’s just him…”
Zoro held the sword around his waist and looked back, “We all heard it right, now it depends on whether he said it wrong or not.”
“Yes, how could so many of us have heard it wrong,” Nami echoed.
“Chopper.”
“Ah,” turning his head still confused, Chopper looked up at Usopp, not understanding what he was suddenly called.
“As a doctor, I want you to see if the Seven Warlords in front of you is sick, and why he suddenly said this.”
Uh!
Listening to Usopp’s words, everyone didn’t know how to answer the mouth for a while, whether it was time to say it or not.
Crocodile, who was already overpowering his extreme anger, at this moment, the anger in his chest was detonated and exploded. This time he didn’t care anymore.
Raising the arm is a slash, a small sand blade composed of yellow sand, piercing the void, and slashing towards Usopp with a piercing sound.
Seeing Crocodile attacking him suddenly, Usopp was woken up by surprise, holding his gauze-wrapped arm like a dumpling, and standing on this high platform with no way to retreat.
The whole body was trembling constantly, crying and crying, “Lin Tian, Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, help, I just said kindly and so tactfully, why attack me alone.”
Hearing this, when Crocodile suddenly attacked the stunned people, black lines could not help but appear on their foreheads. You said that softly without any mercy…
bang!
On the edge, he slammed a punch at will to smash the rushing sandblade, Lin Tian retracted his gaze and stared at Crocodile closely. Just now, his heart was also full of doubts.
The yellow sand was sprinkled on the feet, Usopp immediately relaxed, patting his chest with lingering fears, his upper legs trembled, and he hadn’t forgotten the boosting force. “Usopp is still a great marine warrior!”
As for Usopp’s lie, everyone hadn’t pa.s.sed through the brain, and skipped directly in the ears. After a long silence, Lin Tian finally spoke.
“Crocodile, now, all the situation is by our side, and now you have been blocked in the cage, why should we negotiate with you.”
“That’s right!”
Nami stepped forward, and with everyone gathered together, increased her confidence a lot. Facing Crocodile, she no longer had the same fear as before.
“The most basic thing in negotiation is that both parties must have leverage. Now you have no leverage. If we intervene, this war will be resolved. You have no chance to escape, let alone the rest. Now, why should we negotiate with you.”
“Nami-san, what you said is great,” Sanji yelled with an idiotic expression on the side.
Heh…haha…
Crocodile laughed. There was no decadence in that tone, and it was full of confidence, as if all is under his control.
Lin Tian swept his eyes and suddenly understood something, complexion greatly changed, and his sloppy body became tense in an instant, and his hands were secretly ready to move at any time.
“Who said I have no chips,” the right hand grabbed Vivi by the neck and mentioned Vivi, “This is my biggest bargaining chip, Princess Vivi of this country, your partner, I think this chip is big enough.”
Looking at this scene, at that moment, the expression on his face was the same as Lin Tian, and then he was filled with worry and speechless anger.
Nami and the others’ performance was taken in the entire scene by Crocodile, with a smug smile on the corners of his mouth, and the confidence in his hearts was full. As long as they worry, the greater the probability of his victory.
Sanji stepped on his feet and yelled, “a.s.shole, using such a beautiful Vivi-san as a hostage, I’ll beat you a.s.shole.”
Zoro and Luffy did not speak, because they both knew that it was useless to speak. What they had in front of them was one of Seven Warlords, the extremely powerful Pirate. Now only real battles can be useful.
But in this way, the two of them are just gathering momentum, without any other actions, Vivi’s life can be in Crocodile’s hands, and they have to be cautiously.
Nami: “Hey, Crocodile, aren’t you Seven Warlords? Aren’t you so embarra.s.sed to take a beautiful girl hostage, do you still have the respect of powerhouse?”
“Haha…,” that laugh full of disdain and sarcasm, “We are pirates, what are pirates, treacherous, brutal, synonymous with demons. Everything is success and failure, the means is only the process, and the most important thing is the result. Talk to other pirates. You’re sure that you are not in the wrong place. We are not the righteous marine.”
Nami clenched her fists, but she couldn’t find any words to refute. Pirates are indeed synonymous with evil in the whole world, and they have no right to say things of justice.
Afraid that Vivi will be strangled to death by him, and the chips would be gone by then, he let go a little, and Vivi took a few breaths, then turned around and shouted loudly.
“Everyone, ignore me, hurry up and kill Crocodile! It is meaningless to solve this problem. Don’t let any more innocent lives die!”
Vivi said a problem that lays even more in front of everyone.
“The whole square is about to explode in ten minutes. That bomb is formidable. The power reaches five kilometers in diameter, and the entire square will be covered. This is about millions of orders, hurry up to Crocodile-“
The arm strengthened and her breath was tense, causing her to stop her voice abruptly. Looking at Luffy and the others, who were stunned by the news in front of them, the smile on Crocodile’s face became even greater.
“Unexpectedly, it seems that I not only have this chip, but also the chip of millions of lives on it. Now from this situation, the initiative seems to be in my hands.”
Crocodile’s laughing face seemed so rude to Lin Tian, but he wasn’t wrong, it was indeed the case, the initiative had undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few minutes.
Usopp sweats on his head and shouts in horror: “What should we do? The bomb explodes in ten minutes is the same as saying that all of us are included.”
Reinsert the slightly drawn scabbard, Zoro tells the truth according to the current situation, “There is no other way, we have to stop the bomb now.”
“Stupid, moss head,” Sanji immediately disagreed, “Vivi is still in his hands, how could we find the bomb first, and how did we find this place so big?”
“Smelly cook, even if it’s that big, we still have to find it, otherwise we will all die and no one will be alive.”
Chopper suddenly said, “No- Ah, if the bomb explodes, he won’t be able to escape and be buried with us.”
Dong!
Knocked Chopper’s head hard with his hands, Nami said with a calm face. With a look of eagerness, “He is a Devil Fruit Ability User, and the explosion has limited damage to him.”
“Okay! Before anyone else tries something and mess up.”
Lin Tian’s utterance directly stopped everyone’s quarrel. In this situation, the more they quarrel, the most cherished person will be Crocodile on the side, and his bargaining chip will be bigger.
Seeing everyone calmed down, Lin Tian asked openly: “Let’s talk, since we both have a bargaining chip now, what are the conditions for negotiation?”
Although Lin Tian was very unwilling in his heart, but now his lifeline has been seized, and the initiative is no longer in their hands, so he can only make a decision based on the conditions of the other party.
“Well, in this case, then I only have two requirements, then I will release the princess Vivi and stop the explosion. Naturally, millions of people don’t have to die. The first one, your entire pirate group leaves this country, and everything that happens next is none of your business. This is the most basic one. The second one, starting from today, the royal family of this country is going to leave this country. From today onwards, they can’t step into the country.”
Hearing this condition, everyone couldn’t help showing anger. This kind of request is completely ridiculous and with no certainty.
Nami spoke directly and said angrily: “Impossible, this condition is not equal at all, it is impossible for us to agree, and now it is only you who have the advantage, we are in control of your life.”
“That’s right!” How can this condition be agreed.
Luffy shouted angrily, “Crocodile, I want to have a real duel with you. Using this kind of threat, you’re not worthy of being a pirate.”
The anger in the field suddenly solidified, the situation between the two sides has reached a deadlock, but the battle below is still going on, and countless people die every minute.
