Monkey King in Pirate

While thinking, time passed quickly, and when Sun Xu came to his senses again, he had already arrived at Albana.

It was already night, and the bright stars filled the sky, complementing the lights of Albana.

Under the stars and above the lights, Sun Xu strolled over and soon reached the top of the palace.

He didn't hesitate and landed directly.

Because of the darkness, no one noticed him.

He walked openly and openly in the palace. Although maids and guards cast doubtful glances from time to time, no one came forward to ask.

until……

"Who are you? Why are you in the palace?" Jaka looked ahead warily.

Through the moonlight, he could clearly see the other person's face,

That's not someone from the palace at all!

And he knew very well that there were no guests in the palace today!

Just as Sun Xuxu was about to explain, another voice sounded next to him.

"Jaka, what's wrong?"

Along with the voice, a man carrying a long sword on his waist and wearing a white robe with star patterns on it came out.

When he saw Sun Xu, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Jaka said in a deep voice: "Bell, there is someone who has sneaked into the palace here. He is sneaky and may be sent by the enemy!"

Sun Xu rolled his eyes: "Which of your eyes saw me being sneaky? I obviously came here openly!"

Jaka frowned, not expecting the suspicious person to be so arrogant.

Just as he was about to say something else, Bell quickly stopped him: "Jaka, he is not an enemy!"

"Not an enemy?"

"That's right! He was the one who passed the information to us a few days ago!"

"What?"

Jaka was stunned, put down his guard, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."

Sun Xu waved his hand and looked at Bell: "Where is King Kobra? Have you found evidence that Crocodile is the mastermind behind this?"

"Your Majesty is dining." Bell motioned for him to follow, and then stepped forward: "We found many traces of the activities of the Baroque Working Society, but we did not find any evidence that Crocodile was related to the Baroque Working Society."

There was a hint of helplessness in his voice.

The main reason is that the current situation in Alabasta is chaotic and the power of the royal palace has been greatly weakened, which has added many difficulties to their investigation.

This is also the reason why they haven't taken action against Crocodile yet.

Sun Xu is not Weiwei, and without conclusive evidence, Cobra will not completely trust him.

"It's not surprising." Sun Xu said lightly: "Krokdal is very cautious. Even in the Baroque Works, there are only a few people who know his identity."

Based on Crocodile's actions, once exposed, he will probably be deprived of his position in the Shichibukai.

Although he doesn't really care about the identity of the Shichibukai, before successfully seizing Alabasta, this identity cannot be lost!

While they were talking, the three of them came to the dining area of ​​the palace.

In fact, they were not far from here in the first place.

As palace guards, at least one of Jaka and Bell will stay near the king.

Seeing Sun Xu, Kobra also showed some surprise and took the initiative to invite him to the table for dinner.

Sun Xu did not refuse.

The palace chef's cooking skills are pretty good, although not as good as Sanji's, but they are still top-notch.

After eating and drinking, everyone moved to the study room.

Cobra asked the maids and guards to retreat. Only he, Sun Xu, Bell, and Jaka were left in the room.

"Thank you for the information, otherwise we might still be kept in the dark until now." Kobra said sincerely, not showing off to the king at all.

Although it is still not certain that the man behind the scenes is Crocodile, it at least pointed them in the direction, and now it seems that it is probably the right direction.

"It's just a little effort." Sun Xu waved his hand nonchalantly and put forward his request: "Your Majesty, I would like to stay in the palace for a few days. Is it convenient?"

"Of course, no problem." Kobra agreed simply, but then a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.

Seeing his confused look, Sun Xu took the initiative and asked: "What's the matter, Your Majesty?"

A look of shame flashed across Kobra's face: "I want to know where is the person who can defeat Crocodile that you mentioned before?"

As a kind and benevolent king, if it is his own difficulty, he will definitely not trouble others.

But now it is a disaster for the whole kingdom.

If we fight Crocodile, many soldiers will die.

This made him unbearable.

Therefore, even though it goes against his true intentions, he still shamelessly tries to find someone for help.

"You're talking about this." Sun Xu suddenly realized: "They are with Weiwei, they should be arriving soon."

Nearly ten days have passed since the two parties parted ways.

According to his speculation, Luffy and the others should arrive in Alabasta, probably within the next day or two.

Kobra took a deep breath: "If I want to ask them to help me defeat Crocodile, what kind of reward will I have to pay?"

In his eyes, Sun Xu is a very mysterious person.

Since he said that someone can defeat Crocodile, the credibility is relatively high.

Sun Xu touched his chin: "Remuneration? Prepare a table of good wine and meat."

"..."

The big eyes stared at the small eyes for two seconds.

Cobra asked in surprise: "Then what?"

Sun Xu thought for a while and then said: "Prepare a little more food, there is a big eater in there."

"Just...that's it?" Kobra couldn't believe it. What kind of reward is wine and meat? Are you kidding him?

"They are partners of justice. They are naturally incapable of dealing with evil guys like Crocodile. They don't need to be paid. Just feeding them is enough." Sun Xu said calmly.

Cobra's face was still full of disbelief, and he even began to suspect that Sun Xu was teasing them.

"Maybe there is no one who can deal with Crocodile? After all, that is the Shichibukai!" The more he thought about it, the more he thought more and more biased: "The so-called no reward, maybe it is just a hint that the lie cannot be made up and is too embarrassed to admit?

"

Looking at Cobra's expression, Sun Xu could probably guess what he was thinking, and rolled his eyes: "Okay, prepare some more money, how much, and then you can discuss it with Weiwei and those people."

Cobra felt a little relieved when he heard that he was asking for money.

This is normal!

However, he still lowered his expectations a bit.

After Sun Xu left, Kobra told Bell and Jaka: "Be prepared. Once you find evidence that the mastermind behind the scenes is Crocodile, you will immediately launch an army to attack him!"

"Yes!" Bell and Jaka responded at the same time.

After hesitating for a while, Jaka still raised his own question: "Your Majesty, can that person really be trusted? Could it be that he is..."

Cobra waved his hand and looked deeply: "Probably not. We have already investigated. He only appeared in Alabasta for the first time eight days ago."

After a pause, he changed the topic: "Of course, we can't trust him easily, we have to be careful, after all, his purpose..."

Cobra's voice became smaller and smaller, and Bell and Jaka didn't hear the last few words.
