One Piece: The Magic Mask Spell, I'm Invincible

After Cobra got the news, he went out immediately.

Cobra had to be cautious about an intruder who could control water, especially when the Kingdom of Alabasta was in an unstable state.

Cobra had not yet distinguished whether it was an enemy or a friend.

But Cobra had already asked someone to call the two animal-type devil fruit users back to the capital.

Fortunately, they were all patrolling and guarding near the capital, otherwise Cobra would not know what to do.

Regardless of whether the intruder was an enemy or a friend, Cobra only needed to do one thing, that is, to delay time as much as possible until the two animal-type devil fruit users came to him.

In fact, when Cobra heard that Noah could summon and control water, Cobra seemed to have made a different decision in his heart.

However, Cobra's assumptions were all based on the situation that the intruder was not an enemy.

Or it was based on whether the two animal-type devil fruit users could defeat the intruder.

...

Noah walked for more than 20 minutes under the vigilance of the palace guards, and was getting closer and closer to the center of the palace.

All the palace guards stopped, and this strangeness made Noah realize that the person in charge had arrived.

Noah only hoped that the person in charge was Cobra, the king of the Kingdom of Alabasta, otherwise Noah would be in trouble again.

Cobra walked out from the group of palace guards.

The water swords around Noah did not disappear because of Cobra's appearance.

Cobra did not dare to approach Noah because of the water swords around Noah.

Cobra walked in front of Noah, and the palace guards around him were very nervous. Every palace guard was ready to attack Noah at any time.

Noah and Cobra chose to forget the palace guards around them, and they only had each other in their eyes.

"I don't know who you are?"

"Why do you want to break into my palace?"

Cobra took the initiative. Even if he knew the danger of doing so, as the king of a country, he must not lose the face of the Kingdom of Alabasta.

"Bounty hunter, Su Li."

"The reason why I broke into the palace is because I want to do a business with you."

Noah answered both questions Cobra asked him.

"Bounty hunter, hunting pirates!" Cobra whispered in his heart, and he suddenly thought of Crocodile who occupied the city of Rainland in the western continent of the Kingdom of Alabasta.

Cobra continued to think, and he suddenly realized that he was wrong.

Because Crocodile is not an ordinary pirate, he is one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. He is both a pirate and not a pirate.

So what kind of business does the boy Noah in front of him want to do with him?

Cobra is an experienced person. The moment he saw the water swords around Noah, he knew that the boy in front of him was a strong man.

The reason why he didn't know him should be because this boy was a rookie.

And this boy is not a pirate, but a bounty hunter.

In addition, Cobra did not feel the murderous aura on Noah.

Cobra, who realized this, was relieved.

Cobra waved his hand, and the palace guards slowly retreated. Cobra knew that even if all these palace guards came together, they could not beat the boy named Noah.

Rather than making a meaningless sacrifice, it is better to let all the palace guards retreat.

"Please." Cobra invited Noah.

Cobra wanted to have a good talk with Noah to see what Noah came to the palace to find him for.

Since Cobra invited him, how could Noah refuse.

This is exactly what Noah wanted.

In the back garden of the palace, Cobra brought Noah here. When the two walked, neither of them spoke.

By the pool, waterside pavilion.

The maid brought fruit and retreated.

Noah found that Cobra was treating him as a guest.

Noah couldn't help but look at Cobra with some admiration. He could do so much in the face of invaders. Whether he was pretending or not, such a king was an interesting king.

"What do you think of this country?"

Even though they were here, Cobra didn't seem to mention Noah's purpose.

Noah had already met Cobra, so he didn't need to be so anxious.

And Noah guessed that his target, Gaka and Bell, should not be in the capital of the Alabasta Kingdom now.

"The Alabasta Kingdom under your rule is naturally good, and the people here live better than the outside world."

"It's just a pity."

Noah changed the subject and didn't continue.

"Yes!"

"The current Alabasta Kingdom is indeed not what I want, but I can't change it. It seems that a big hand is controlling the disaster of the Alabasta Kingdom."Although Cobra did not say it explicitly, he also meant something.

Cobra is a smart king. He has guessed something about the drought and unrest.

However, guesses are always guesses. Cobra has no evidence to identify Crocodile. Crocodile is a Shichibukai.

Moreover, Crocodile's power is not something Cobra can challenge.

The Kingdom of Alabasta is a member of the World Government and a superpower with great influence.

In addition, what Crocodile is trying to seize is of great importance and can only be done secretly.

If it were not for these, Crocodile would have forced the Kingdom of Alabasta alone.

There would be no need for these conspiracies.

It is just right that Noah knows Crocodile's conspiracy. Noah wants to hunt Crocodile's devil fruit, which also means that Noah and Cobra are on the same side.

So the two of them can cooperate and get what they need.

"You can't beat Crocodile, but I can."

"The conditions you have to pay are very simple, that is, the devil fruits of the two devil fruit users under you."

Noah did not tell Cobra all his bottom lines, and now let Cobra make a choice.

Noah's directness really shocked Cobra.

What shocked Cobra the most was that what Noah wanted was too strange.

"Devil fruit hunting!" Cobra whispered in his heart several times, but he didn't say it out loud.

So does Cobra have a choice now?

Can Noah make a deal with Cobra directly at once?

The answer is no!

Cobra rejected Noah.

The two devil fruit users are the strongest guardian force of the Kingdom of Alabasta. How could Cobra give up easily?

Cobra is betting that he can stop this disaster with the power of one country.

Once Cobra uncovers Crocodile's conspiracy, Cobra can suppress Crocodile with the momentum of the member countries of the World Government.

This is Cobra's plan.

"Since you have chosen your own path, just pretend that I never mentioned this."

"You are a good king of a country."

After Noah finished speaking, he stood up and left.

With Noah's power, why didn't he just snatch the devil fruits of Bell and Gaga?

That's because they are not vicious pirates, they are heroes who have always protected a country.

Noah is not a good person, but Noah will never forcibly take the devil fruits of people like Gaga and Bell.

If the two of them were pirates or villains, Noah would have taken action directly, and would not have come to negotiate a deal with Cobra.

Noah didn't feel sorry for missing these two devil fruits.

Because Baroque Works still has a lot of devil fruits that Noah can hunt.

Then Noah's next target is the devil fruits in Baroque Works.

Baroque Works, except Crocodile and Nico Robin.

Mr. 1, Daz Bonis, the strongest chief commander of Baroque Works, he is the user of the superhuman fast-cut fruit ability. ‌

‌Miss.Double Finger, Pola, she is a parahuman thorn fruit user.

Mr.2, Von Clay Von Clay, he is a parahuman mimic fruit user.

Mr.3, Gal Dino, he is a wax wax fruit user.

Miss.Merry Christmas, Dorophy, this old woman is an animal-type mole fruit user.

Mr.5, Jem, he is a blast fruit user.

Miss.Valentine, Mickey, she is a light and heavy fruit user.

These devil fruits, as long as Noah hunts them, Noah's strength will change dramatically.

When Baroque Works was destroyed by Noah.

That is when the Black Shadow Corps descended on the pirate world.
