The bloody hand Mary of the pirate

Chapter 56: Mary Returns

"Jaka, Bell, you all stand back."

Weiwei looked at Crocodile and narrowed his eyes before giving a decisive order.

In the heavy rain, Weiwei's soaked hair could not hide her slightly shining eyes.

Jaka watched Weiwei being silent for a moment, then quickly retreated with a somewhat unwilling Bell.

"Bell...we can't intervene next."

"Your Highness Weiwei..."

Bell glanced at Weiwei who was motionless in the rainstorm with a complicated expression, sighed and flew away.

Crocodile did not stop the two people from leaving. In other words, Crocodile no longer bothered to stop them.

Having regained his original intention, he will only attack those he likes. Those who are not worth mentioning in his opinion, as long as he does not offend Crocodile himself, he will not deliberately go after them.

trouble.

Looking at the two patron saints of Alabasta hanging in the distance, Crocodile smiled disdainfully and turned back to look at Weiwei.

"Although those two guys are indeed not worth mentioning, but Weiwei, if I remember correctly, your strength is far inferior to those two guys."

"Why, let them go, why don't you go yourself?"

Hearing what Crocodile said, Weiwei slowly shook her head.

"I can't leave, I'm different from them."

Weiwei lightly clenched her hands and said to Crocodile without fear:

"I cannot leave this battlefield, let alone abandon the soldiers who obeyed me and fought with you."

"But fighting me, isn't it like seeking death for you?"

As Crocodile spoke, he pressed his hand down slightly, and a large dry area was formed out of thin air, and the dry air spread to Weiwei's feet.

"See? Now I can kill you at any time."

Crocodile's tone was so cold that no one could hear any fluctuations: "If you want to die, why not give up the fight? It will be good for both you and me."

Now Crocodile is also interested in Weiwei.

In the past, Crocodile had always regarded the Nefertari family as a tool and a thorn in his side for Pluto. This complicated emotion made Crocodile's behavior towards Kobra and Vivi quite strange.

If it was in the past, Crocodile had gained such power, how could he talk nonsense with Weiwei?

But now that Crocodile had looked away from Pluto, his mood became calmer. He looked at Weiwei calmly.

He now wanted to know how Weiwei could awaken her domineering aura and how she could stand in front of him without fear.

You know, in his impression, Vivi is a little girl who can only stay behind Kobra and cry. Now that she has grown to this point, it is inevitable that Crocodile will be a little curious.

Weiwei heard Crocodile's words and replied decisively:

"Even if they are the same death, the two deaths are different."

"If my death can bring about national awakening, then that's not a bad idea."

When Weiwei said this, a relieved smile appeared on her face.

"You don't know who I'm talking about, do you, Sand Crocodile?"

Crocodile was silent for a moment, looked at Weiwei, and said with emotion:

"Of course I know who you are talking about."

He covered the broken part of his broken arm and said, "The wound she left on me is still hurting. I won't forget her so easily."

"Yes, you can't even forget her, let alone me."

Weiwei closed her eyes and recalled Mary's back, with a subtle smile appearing on her face.

When she opened her eyes, Weiwei's expression became solemn again.

"I once sneaked into the Baroque Studio and kept trying to find people to help save the country. This has always been the case for me. I thought I could slowly make the country better, but everything is slowly getting worse."

"I have been escaping and evading face to face with you. Because I feel that I am too weak. However, if I are killed by you, no one will be able to plot for Alabasta."

Her tone became lower and lower.

"However, fate is not good, and my undercover plan was discovered. When Mr. 5 found me, I thought everything was over."

"But at this moment, Mary appeared!"

Weiwei's tone suddenly became firm and calm, and Tina's expression changed when she heard this.

Mary…

Tina remembered that this navy had been mentioned in the newspaper before. When she came here, she specifically asked for Mary's name, but not many people seemed to know that such a person existed.

Now that she heard this name from Weiwei's mouth, Tina couldn't help but pay full attention.

"It was she who defeated Mr. 5 and Mr. Valentine. It was she who told me the truth about Baroque Studio. It was she who promised me that she would defeat you for me, Sand Crocodile."

Weiwei smiled, looked at the expressionless Crocodile, and said word by word:

"'Keep fighting until you are completely burned out. Even if you are unable to do anything, don't do anything that will grovel and humiliate today's will.' This is what she told me, and she did exactly that.

"Mary, Lady Mary, never begged you for mercy until the last moment, right, Sand Crocodile!?"

Weiwei asked sternly.

"..." Crocodile looked at Weiwei and shook his head.

"What if I didn't give her a chance to beg for mercy?"

However, seeing the fire burning in Weiwei's eyes, Crocodile unexpectedly shrugged.

"Indeed, that little girl was still thinking about how to hack me to death until the end."

When Weiwei heard this, her expression turned out to be true.

"Yeah, at that time I realized how cowardly I was in the past."

"I have been thinking that I cannot die. Once I die, Alabasta will be ravaged by you, and the people will not be able to survive."

"But Lady Mary made me understand that the only way to save this country is by defeating you personally!"

"Sand Crocodile, although I don't know what your real purpose is, for so long, I at least know that you are thinking of ways to seize the throne of Alabasta."

"In that case, I just need to make it impossible for you to do this."

"Take away your Shichibukai identity, let what you have done be fully exposed, and attract support from the world government. Then, let the people of Alabasta unite to resist."

"This way, even if I die, you still can't succeed."

Having said this, Weiwei smiled self-deprecatingly.

"Speaking of which, what needs to be done has actually been done. I originally planned to keep you here, but now it seems that even with Nico Robin's intelligence support, I still underestimated your strength."

After Weiwei finished saying these words, she stopped making any sound and just looked at Crocodile steadily.

"This life is not important now. If my death can unite the people of Alabasta, maybe it is a good choice."

To this day, Weiwei has given up on her own life and death.

Just like Crocodile found his true heart, Weiwei also found her true heart.

From the beginning, she just wanted to protect the people of Alabasta, nothing more.

Crocodile looked at Weiwei and narrowed his eyes.

Weiwei's words still made him a little unconvinced - at least Crocodile didn't think it was enough of a reason for Weiwei to risk her life.

"Is it worth it to you?"

Crocodile suddenly asked a question that had no beginning or end.

Weiwei was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then replied:

"Of course, because she believes I can do it."

After a moment of silence, Weiwei straightened her body, tied up her messy hair under the heavy rain with a hair tie, and tied it back into a single ponytail.

"She helped me because of my kindness and persistence, so I must at least give my own response."

"Her Excellency Mary once said to me that the world needs more [fools] like me, and she exists for this."

"Ekalem once said to me that having dreams is the privilege of children, and before children wake up from their dreams and are crushed by the cruel reality, it is the task of adults to protect their dreams..."

When Weiwei said this, her overbearing aura became more solid and her momentum became stronger and stronger.

"I have to at least catch up with the two of them and make them understand that the person they entrusted their lives to is not a coward."

"I want the citizens of Alabasta to know that the princess they love and follow - Wang is definitely not someone who is looking for an excuse to hide under the protection of others!"

"I am the royal bloodline of the Nefertari clan, the bloodline that has been protecting this land for thousands of years."

"I will make everyone follow me, just like Lady Mary."

"Everyone believes in me. If that's the case, what reason do I have to shirk my original responsibilities?"

"Even if it costs me my life in front of you."

Weiwei's current thoughts are actually very simple and innocent, and her essence is still the same as her original one.

But her perspective on things completely changed.

She held the cloak tightly at the corners of her shoulders in the rain, and the loose hair on her back was soaked by the rain and stuck to her face, making Weiwei's eyes appear clearer and brighter.

"..."

Tina looked at Weiwei, who was delicate but tall and tall, and her eyes were filled with waves again.

Gee, I kind of want to meet that navy guy.

Crocodile was speechless after hearing this. After a while, he sneered and shook his head.

"ridiculous……"

For the people of Alabasta to follow, for their entrustment to be repaid?

It's true...the price of overlord's lust is actually carrying the hope of a country.

Is the consciousness of a leader the reason why you can awaken your overlord color?

However, I abandoned these from the beginning...

Crocodile took a deep breath and looked at Weiwei, with a look of relief in his eyes.

But it doesn't matter.

I don't need those things!

Crocodile's heart was as clear as a mirror, and he completely let go of his grudge against the domineering look.

Even if you don't have a domineering look, even if you are a lone ranger, you can still ascend to the top of the world.

Just like Joracol Mihawk, who develops his existing power to its peak, Overlord Color is just a support.

After thinking about it, the wind and sand around Crocodile moved slightly, a new arm of sand was formed, and the broken leg was straightened and fixed by the sand.

"I recognize your will, Weiwei." Crocodile sneered.

"Since you no longer care about your own life, then sacrifice yourself for your people in Alabasta."

After getting information about Weiwei's domineering power, Crocodile said no more, and the dry area spread out again, preparing to kill Weiwei directly.

Crocodile once promised Mary that he would let Weiwei go, but the premise was that Weiwei would not take the initiative to mess with her.

Now Crocodile also knew what Mary's wry smile meant back then.

Looking at the dry field in front of her, Weiwei's face turned pale, but her figure did not waver at all.

Just like she said, there is no use hiding anywhere, so she can't take even one step back even if she dies.

Her sacrifice must be valuable.

Time seemed to slow down, and the dry field gradually clung to Weiwei. Weiwei took out the peacock wood breaker and threw it directly towards Crocodile.

Tina's hands shot out, trying to grab Weiwei's body.

Robin's expression also changed, and the hands growing on the ground grabbed Weiwei's heels and tried to throw her backwards.

In a flash of light, a blood rope suddenly appeared from behind Weiwei and trapped Weiwei's waist like a thunderbolt.

Then in just a blink of an eye, the bloody rope ripped Weiwei away, and even Weiwei's tied hair was spread out again.

Before anyone on the field could react to what happened, two angry shouts suddenly came from the sky.

"White fist!"

"fire punch!"

A giant fist made of white smoke and a giant fist made of flames volleyed down at Crocodile from different directions.

"snort!"

A sudden change occurred, but Crocodile reacted immediately. The yellow sand beneath his feet burst out, turned into two giant pythons, and smashed away the two giant fists, and rushed towards the two people who launched the attack.

"Yan Shangzhang!"

Ace's voice was quite wild. Following his voice, a huge wall of fire suddenly surrounded Crocodile. Two giant sand pythons hit the wall of fire and immediately melted into little white crystals.

Weiwei on the side was dragged out. When she stopped, she was already in someone's arms.

"Well done, Weiwei."

When a familiar voice came, Weiwei was startled and looked up.

Mary's familiar smiling face came into view.

"..."

Weiwei looked at Mary blankly, her eyes turning red unconsciously.

"It's all coming to an end."

Mary smiled comfortingly and passed her hand to Weiwei.

"It's beyond my expectation that you can do this—leave it to me."

Weiwei looked at Mary, bit her lip without making a sound, and handed the cloak behind her back to Mary.

When the cloak took over, a difficult smile appeared on Weiwei's face.

"I know you will definitely come back..."
