The bloody hand Mary of the pirate

For the next week, the sea was boringly calm. Mary did not encounter any pirates from whom she could collect some small tickets along the way, and could only accumulate a little bit of life force by absorbing the life force of seagulls and sea fish every day.

However, thanks to the calm situation during this period, Mary's training achieved extremely significant results.

Although his combat experience has not increased at all, his physical fitness has greatly increased.

Mary also knew that after landing in Alabasta, she probably wouldn't have any time to train. So during this period of training, Mary was extra serious and worked very hard.

That kind of training intensity even shocked Zoro, who has always been characterized by high-intensity training, and Vivi and Ikarem were even more unheard of.

I only sleep for two hours a day to simply refresh myself, do 30,000 push-ups with weights, and 50,000 sit-ups a day. In addition, I run in circles all the time, without stopping except for eating, and crazily squeeze my physical energy.

The most intuitive effect of this inhumane training method is that her physical fitness increased from 1212 to 1520, which is the standard colonel level.

——Tie the previous Smoker.

Moreover, during this time, Mary also made a breakthrough in tactics.

The breakthrough in swordsmanship was a sword move she learned. Of course, this is the main means of close combat. But Mary's real main method of fighting is the return of life and the shower of blood.

During this time, Mary successfully reproduced an idea she had during the blood shower.

She first created a large cloud of blood mist, and then let the blood in her body completely grind herself into pieces.

And at the same time, store all the equipment on your body into the item inventory.

Then, she can reshape her entire body anywhere in the blood mist she released previously.

In other words, when her body is crushed, the entire blood mist is part of her body and can regenerate a complete body at any time.

The combination of Life Fruit and Life Return is far more powerful than Mary imagined!

After realizing this characteristic, Mary can use this as a means of teleportation, and can also condense the fake body through blood - and her true body can appear in the fake body anytime and anywhere.

In addition to consuming a lot of life force, the tactical value of this feature is astonishing.

Moreover, thanks to it, Mary realized for the first time that this blood was also her body in a broader sense.

Then, think of the characteristics of the Devil Fruit - as long as the person is soaked in a certain amount of seawater, or if the person only touches a little bit of seawater but is soaked for too long, the person with the ability will become weak.

In other words, if only a small part of the body comes into contact with seawater and the soaking time is not long, the side effects will be far less severe.

In other words, if Mary needs to enter the sea in the future, she can release a huge amount of blood into the sea and then dive into the sea herself.

In this case, a large amount of her [body] is in the sea, and her body is only [a very small part of her body], so the sea water will not have a huge impact on her.

And she tried it once in the past two days, and the bug is feasible.

It's just that...it also comes with a huge consumption of life force.

Hematopoiesis is not an easy task either.

Alas, vitality, vitality...

Out of boredom, Mary trapped a group of seagulls with her blood and drained them of their life force.

In the blink of an eye, these seagulls completely aged and died, falling into the sea.

Just when Mary was enjoying the sea breeze for a while and preparing to go back to training, Ikarem hurriedly ran up to her.

"Huh?" Looking at the excited Ikarem, Mary frowned: "What's wrong?"

"Your Excellency Mary," Ikarem pointed to the bow of the ship, "we are here!"

Mary was stunned for a moment and looked along Ikarem's hand. Sure enough, a city was already looming on the sea level.

"If our route is correct," Ikarem continued, "that city should be the Rapeseed Flower Market."

"Oh? Rapeseed flower market..."

When Mary heard this, she had a half-smile expression on her face.

One of the largest ports in Alabasta, and rich in perfume.

If I remember correctly, this seems to be the landing place for the protagonist group, right?

Destiny is truly amazing.

Seeing Mary's subtle expression, Ikarem was also confused and asked:

"Has Lady Mary been here before?"

After hearing this, Mary thought for a while and slowly shook her head.

"No, I just heard about it. It is said that a precious perfume is produced here, even in the East China Sea."

"Haha, that's true. If you have any needs, Alabasta will open a friendly door for you."

Icarim smiled and fell silent.

After a while, he raised his head again and looked at Mary seriously.

"Your Excellency Mary, although I shouldn't say this, it is too dangerous for you to get involved."

"Huh? Why, you don't want me to go into danger?"

Mary looked at Ikarem with amusement.

"Without me, you would have almost no chance of defeating Crocodile. Don't even think that you can defeat Crocodile on your own. He is not a nobody."

"And if my guess is right, Crocodile should be ready to close the network now. It's too late to think about asking the World Government for help at this time."

"Are you serious about losing me at this juncture?"

Ikarem sighed deeply and looked downcast.

Mary clapped her hands to bring Icarim back to his senses, who was in a bad mood.

She looked at Ikarem seriously and said calmly:

"Don't worry, Ikarem. You don't need to have any psychological burden."

"First of all, I am a marine. Your request for help from the World Government is essentially the same as my request for support. Secondly, I am not here to help you because of any coercion. I am here voluntarily."

"In my opinion, Weiwei is still a child. She has endured too many things that she should not have to endure, and the humble wish she has is just for peace and prosperity for the country and the people."

"Having dreams is a child's privilege, Ikarem. And before the children wake up from their dreams and are crushed by the cruel reality, protecting their dreams...that's the task of me and you, adults."

Mary's eyes were deep, looking directly at Alabasta, as if she wanted to penetrate the vast sea of ​​sand and see Alabasta strategizing in the rain.

Icarim, on the other hand, was in awe, and for the first time he bowed deeply to Mary with sincerity.

"With the highest respect, Your Majesty Mary."

"I don't have the power to promise you anything for the country, but I promise you in my own name: Whenever you need me for anything, I will be there."

Mary smiled without looking at Icarim.

She can feel the changes in herself.

Rebirth as a human being will indeed make you look brand new.

In the past, how could I have such courage?

Unknowingly, I seem to have a wonderful leadership temperament. Is it because of my domineering look?

Putting the cart before the horse.

Arriving at the rapeseed flower market port, everyone disembarked.

This port doesn't seem to be sensitive to strangers, and even though the Straw Hats actually have quite a bit of gangsterism, they don't attract any particular attention.

On the other hand, it was Mary, dressed in a pitch-black military uniform with the word "Justice" in bright red on the back, which was quite eye-catching.

It attracted a lot of strange looks.

Mary didn't care about this. She was looking at a huge duck in astonishment.

"...When did this guy get on the ship?"

Mary said, pointing to the fast runner.

Runner is Weiwei's mount, a very fast duck and the captain of Alabasta's fastest force, the Super Karoo Duck Corps. Mary remembers that it was originally supposed to be at Whiskey Peak, when did it catch up with the ship?

Mary stared at the running speed and was quite curious about it.

I vaguely remember that this guy seems to understand human speech, right? Then I don’t know if she can absorb her life force.

Running fast seemed to feel the strange look in Mary's eyes, so he trembled with fright and squeezed behind Weiwei.

"Okay, okay, run fast, Lady Mary is a good person, you don't have to be so afraid."

Weiwei smiled and comforted her by running fast, then turned to Mary and said:

"The fast runner has always been on the boat. When we were at Whiskey Peak, the fast runner was knocked unconscious by the MR.5 explosion. He woke up in the middle of the night. He boarded the boat with us the next day, but it was so

Having stayed in the warehouse for several days without coming out, Lady Mary naturally doesn't know of its existence."

With that said, Weiwei also introduced her to running fast.

Basically, this is her best friend.

After staying for a while, Mary was ready to leave.

The sea otter in the unlucky duo didn't know if it had arrived in Alabasta at this time, nor did he know if his information had been passed on to Crocodile.

The longer time passes, the worse it will be for her. A well-prepared Crocodile is definitely much harder to deal with than an unprepared Crocodile. Things will change later, and Mary must rush into the rain and try to end the battle in the shortest possible time.

.

...No matter what the outcome of the battle is.

She straightened up and said to everyone.

"Okay, everyone, let's go our separate ways here. Straw Hat, you and your crew, and Robin, escort Vivi and Icarem back to Albana, and protect King Kobra from the Baroque Job

At the same time, if the rebels attack the city, they must be held back until the battle is over on my side, and everything will be settled."

"Icarim, you have to pay attention. Your current king is a fake king, disguised by Mr. 2, a cadre of the Baroque Working Society. You must find a way to capture him."

"I will go to the Rain Land and go straight to Crocodile."

Mary briefly explained her plan and prepared to set off directly.

However, at this time, Luffy suddenly interrupted her.

"Hey, black navy, are you planning to fight that Kroc alone?"

Luffy said in a deep voice.

"Yeah." Mary nodded.

"Don't even think about following me. You're not strong enough and you'll be held back. And your personality, against an old man like Crocodile, will be a disservice to me."

Mary looked at Luffy very seriously.

Just as Luffy was about to say something else, Zoro stepped forward and held Luffy's shoulders.

Luffy suddenly looked at Zoro in shock, while Zoro stared at Mary.

"Your Majesty the Navy, I have thought about what you said that day for a long time. I know that we are not strong enough to help you. But I still ask you to win. If you die, then what you said will be

Everything has become empty words, and I will be very bored in the future."

Zoro calmed down and said to Mary.

Mary looked at Sauron for a long time and suddenly smiled.

"That's why I appreciate you, Zoro."

After saying this, she suppressed her smile and lowered the brim of her hat.

"Don't worry too much. The word [justice] is not so fragile that it can change the whole world with just one person's life and death. No matter what the outcome of this battle is, I believe there will always be someone who thinks the same as me."

"Besides, I won't lose."

"My strength comes from the weight I carry."

"Follow your dreams, Great Swordsman, and wait for the day when you are arrested by me."

Mary said this and turned around.

But at this time, Weiwei suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the corner of Mary's clothes.

Mary was stunned for a moment and looked at Weiwei.

"I want to go with you."

Weiwei said concisely and firmly.

"Weiwei..." Mary frowned, "I said you would hold me back, right?"

"When fighting Crocodile, I don't have time to protect you."

I thought these few words were enough to persuade Weiwei to retreat, but unexpectedly, she shook her head decisively.

"Mary, I won't hold you back."

Weiwei said very seriously.

"When you fight Crocodile, I will hide far away so that he will never have a chance to find me."

"Then why are you following me?"

Mary was puzzled.

Weiwei smiled very gently.

"You need someone to lead the way. Do you know how to get to the Rainy Land?"

Mary was stunned.

Well……

She really seemed to have overlooked this.

Mary, who is familiar with the plot, knows all the locations at her fingertips, but if you want to know how to get there... that's really hard for her.

but……

"This reason is not enough. I can just take a passerby to ask for directions, and my ability is enough to reach the rainy place."

Mary refused for this reason.

"..." Weiwei was silent for a moment, shook her head, looked at Mary again, and met her eyes.

She said word for word:

"I feel sorry for leaving you alone in danger."

Weiwei thought of the anxious and worried expressions on her father and Ikarim's face when she sneaked into the Baroque Studio alone.

And now, Mary in front of her is also in danger alone. Weiwei can't just sit back and ignore it.

When Mary heard this, she remained silent for a long time, looking closely at Weiwei with sharp eyes.

However, Weiwei, who had always been gentle and weak, was now unimaginably stubborn and did not flinch in the face of Mary's scrutinizing gaze.

Finally, after a few seconds, Mary smiled.

"what ever."

Seeing the two people smiling and shaking hands, Sanji lit a cigarette.

Then he slowly blew out a smoke ring.

"Ah, girls' friendship is so beautiful."

Usopp and Nami both nodded in agreement.

Icarem looked at Weiwei with relief.

Your Highness, you have grown up...

Now that she had made up her mind, Mary no longer wanted to be her mother-in-law. She picked up Weiwei and said to everyone:

"Run fast, Luffy and the others will leave it to you. I'm faster than you. If we go to the rainy land, I won't take you with me!"

Hearing Mary mocking its speed, the running speed rattled a few times quite angrily, but did not react particularly violently.

The intuition of animals is often better than that of humans. If you run fast, you can clearly detect how strong Mary is. Therefore, it is not happy with Mary's words, but it still has no objection.

Mary teased and ran faster, and also suppressed her smile. Ignoring Weiwei's visibly bloodshot cheeks, she said to Ikarem and others:

"Everyone, see you Albana!"

Before the words dissipated, Mary had already hugged Weiwei, stepped on the wall of the tall building, and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"call……"

Luffy let out a long breath and said to the others.

"Well, kids, let's go to Albana!"

"You can't even do this well and then be looked down upon by that black-clad navy man again!"

…

Rainy land, rain feast.

Looking at the trembling sea otter in front of him, Crocodile waved his hand to make it move away.

"Click."

The door is closed.

In the huge office, only Crocodile was left sitting silently at his desk, and Mr. 1 stood in the shadows without saying a word.

After a long time, Crocodile exhaled a puff of smoke.

"Haha, I never thought that that brat Weiwei could actually find someone who is not afraid of death."

Crocodile said a few words mockingly and said without raising his head:

"Mr. 1, go try that navy's strength. If she is not strong enough, kill her directly."

"Okay, boss. What if you are very strong?"

"Then I will take revenge on you."

"Okay, boss."

In the blink of an eye, Mr.1's figure disappeared into the room.

Only Crocodile buried his face in the shadows, making it difficult for people to understand what he was thinking.
