Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

There may be some uncertainty about other cranes.

But she can be sure that [Golden Dawn] Ryan Rowan is definitely not a man who will ask for help easily.

No matter what the situation was, the emperor from 800 years ago was always accustomed to placing himself in a dominant position, allowing himself to control the overall situation of the incident, and would never be led by others.

Therefore, when such a character speaks in person and asks if the other person can help, it means that things may really be "big".

…

"Ms. Crane."

"On the Navy side, if we arrange for the residents of Alabasta to evacuate as quickly as possible, how efficient will it be?"

This question caused waves in He's heart.

She thought for a moment and finally answered, "Very slowly."

"The SH Army of the Grand Line has very few large-scale fleets that can be mobilized."

He explained simply: "In addition, Alabasta is a well-known superpower on the sea, with a permanent population of 10 million. If you want to evacuate the whole country, the manpower, material and financial resources required will be an astronomical figure."

"There is no force or person in this ocean that can do this."

This is of course a disappointing answer.

If the person asking was really a "king" who was anxious because the Four Emperors were about to attack, then "he" should be very anxious at this moment.

The navy can't help, which means the world government behind them can't help.

In this way, the only one they can rely on to deal with the coming Four Emperors is themselves.

But now the person asking Crane is not an ordinary "king", but the emperor of Alabasta, [Golden Dawn] Lion Rowan.

So after getting that disappointing answer, Rowan just nodded slightly.

"Got it, Ms. Crane."

Then, Rowan changed the topic and asked: "If you want to come to Alabasta, please be careful."

"Your Majesty, the Emperor eight hundred years ago, I cannot afford your honorific title..."

He smiled bitterly and shook his head helplessly.

She actually didn't want to communicate directly with Rowan, after all, that would be too tiring.

Even Crane found it difficult to follow Ryan Rowan's ideas.

If I had to give an analogy, it felt like Rowan was born with a "skip" button in his mind.

When he talks to Ryan Rowan, he always skips the useless parts and comes to the next option as quickly as possible.

This is of course an extremely efficient way of dialogue, but it is difficult for ordinary people to understand what Rowan is saying, and it also creates the phenomenon of Ryan Rowan's "extremely jumping thinking."

Just like now.

After learning that "the navy cannot arrange the evacuation of permanent residents of Alabasta", Rowan paused briefly and immediately asked the next question:

"Ms. Crane, what are the chances of the navy launching a demon-slaying order?"

This question was asked in an understatement, but the content made the navy soldiers listening around couldn't help but tighten their pupils.

This... why does this have to do with the Demon-Slaying Order?

It was the navy's ultimate weapon, capable of erasing a small island from the world. Only the navy admiral was qualified to initiate the demon-slaying order.

But there is one thing that I have to pay attention to.

The navy's demon-slaying order can indeed destroy a country with ease, but when faced with only four "Four Emperors" on the sea, the actual effect of the demon-slaying order seems a bit embarrassing.

After all, those four are top experts who can easily destroy a country with their own strength!

Therefore, the surrounding navy soldiers had no idea what Rowan meant by his question, and Crane finally responded.

The "Demon-Slaying Order" mentioned by Luo Wen was not aimed at the Beast Pirates, but he was asking Crane whether there was a possibility of the World Government launching a Demon-Slaying Order against the "Four Seas Alliance"!

Is this really possible?

Naval Headquarters—No.

World Government – ​​Yes.

He opened his mouth and said slowly: "It's possible, but the possibility is not high, and the Warring States side will get the news in advance and won't launch suddenly."

This answer gave Rowan enough information points to judge possible changes in the situation in the future, which was enough.

"last question."

Rowan spoke slowly, his voice calm.

Hearing this, Heya took a deep breath and his brain started to work quickly again.

She is the chief staff officer of the Navy Headquarters. She cannot lose face in front of Ryan Rowan.

Therefore, Crane must respond to the questions raised by Rowan as quickly as possible and then give corresponding answers.

Then, Rowan laughed softly a few times.

"Do you have any taboos for the celebration banquet later?"

This question made Helian and the navy soldiers around him stunned.

After a moment, He shook his head helplessly and smiled softly: "Just do your best to prepare, Your Majesty the Emperor, I will bring a group of big eaters over there to eat."

"Definitely, don't worry."

Rowan smiled and hung up the phone.

Then, he picked up a piece of coral from his desk. It was no ordinary coral. The material seemed to be extremely special.

Rowan blew hard on one end of the coral with his mouth, and a huge air bubble appeared on the other side.

"The gadgets of the fishmen are indeed very interesting."

…

On this day, most of the residents of Alabasta took action.

Most of the people were notified, and were escorted by the king's army to the towns near the sea for promotion and refuge.

Near the sea?

When Crocodile heard this order for the first time, he really couldn't understand Rowan's thinking.

If the Beast Pirates really planned to launch a direct war against Alabasta, then it was obvious that the residents of coastal towns should go inland to avoid the war. Why did Rowan do the opposite?

Soon, Crocodile knew the reason.

The Four Seas Alliance has an innate factor that no other maritime power has, and that is a good relationship with the fish-men tribe.

Therefore, the Four Seas Alliance can obtain many gadgets unique to the fishmen.

For example, a special kind of coral can create tough and huge bubbles, which can allow ordinary humans to move freely on the seabed for a short period of time.

And when this kind of bubble reaches a certain scale, it can create a shelter on the seabed that is enough for many people to move and live for a short period of time!

The principle is very similar to that of the Fishman Island, the hometown of the Fishmen.

After listening to Rowan's explanation, Crocodile held the special coral in his hand, weighed it, and then asked, "How many shelters have you prepared?"

Rowan stretched out his finger and pointed below the two of them.

"The seafloor off Alabasta is itself our refuge."

Crocodile understood.

——Shelters, many, many.
