The Paper Fruit Among the Pirates
Chapter 49: The Desert Crocodile, Great Disparity in Strength
"Ancient weapon - Pluto."
"Known as the worst warship in the history of shipbuilding, the super warship built by the capital of seven waters can destroy an island with one shot, and now it is sleeping somewhere in the world, and its location is only known to Nico Robin who understands the text of history. "
Roman glanced at the blue-haired princess girl Vivi.
"And the so-called 'historical text' is buried in the royal tomb of Weiwei's family."
This·······
"Don't ask me why I know,"
With a big wave of his hand, Roman stopped the questions that were about to arise.
"I can only say that these are facts! Not stories and fairy tales..."
"Current Shah Krokdarming is a 'hero' in Alabasta on the surface, active in eradicating pirates and protecting civilians. But in fact, all this is just a preparation for his 'stealing the country'."
"On the one hand, as a 'hero' to buy people's hearts, on the other hand, he used his 'Sand Fruit' ability to set off sandstorms everywhere, which caused several years of drought in Alabasta..."
"At the same time, provoke the conflict between the king and the rebels, and let the two sides fight. I believe that when the right time comes, he will definitely jump out and kill the 'ruthless' king's army, and save the people from the fire."
"My father is not..."
"You don't need to explain to me," Roman waved Wei Wei's words.
"You should consider how to explain to those people, although this is bound to be futile."
Such things as devil fruits are simply a dimensionality reduction blow to ordinary people. Under the double blow of drought and hunger, whether people have the patience to listen to explanations is also a big problem.
"So: Nicole Robin and Crocodile are a partnership."
"Essentially speaking, Nicole Robin is just a simple 'archaeologist'."
"Maybe she wasn't a good person, but she wasn't too bad either.—So, facing her own boss, Shah Krocdale, was making trouble in Alabasta and ruining thousands of homes." She is also very entangled in the issue."
That's why the beautiful woman came here just now to warn and give pointers.
"Then why didn't she just kill that Sha-Krokdal?"
Sauron, who was holding the three knives at his waist, asked a question. After being easily knocked out of the weapon by the opponent, he has always maintained this vigilant posture that he can draw his knives at any time.
"According to Roman, this Nicole Robin has offered a reward of 79 million, while her boss, Sha Crockerdale, has only offered a reward of 80 million..."
Looks very similar in strength, doesn't it?
"No, quite the opposite."
Roman shook his head. In fact, he was almost scratching his head during this time. Thinking about the next battle against the sand crocodile, Roman wished to split one minute into two minutes of exercise!
If there is a time hut or something, he will practice in it for at least ten years before coming out...
"Nicole Robin was offered a reward of 79 million because archaeology violated the secrets of the world government."
"Her strength... Considering the particularity of the fruit's ability, at first sight it can be no more than 50 million. And once you understand the characteristics of 'Huahuaguo', then her combat power is about 30 million."
Of course, this is just Roman's own estimate.
"On the other hand, Sha Crocodile, the so-called 80 million bounty is his bounty amount a long time ago. After he did several major things in the new world, he accepted the recruitment of the world government. So the bounty has not been increased."
"In my estimation..." Although Roman couldn't see his face, he believed that his expression must be very ugly.
Because even Luffy showed a serious face on the other side.
"Crocodile's strength should be in the hundreds of millions!"
As for whether these numbers are 2 or 9, it's hard to say... After all, he was once on a par with Barrett, and later overwhelmed the fierce man with white beard! Now Roman can only pray that when he loses to Whitebeard, he will lose his ambition, domineering skills, and combat IQ by the way, otherwise——
Playing GG with laughter and laughter?
"Honestly, I can't even think of a way we can beat him..."
"Roman, this is not a question of whether you can win."
Facing Roman's "truth", Lu Fei pressed the straw hat with a serious expression and a serious tone.
"It's a question we have to go to!"
"...Well, I respect your decision, Captain."
After staring at Luffy for a few seconds, Roman finally nodded. No matter how badly he described Sha Crocodile, Luffy couldn't possibly back down because of it. Just like Sauron facing the eagle eye, even if he loses, he will never back down!
but:
Crocodile is not Hawkeye who likes to support his juniors. He is a guy who is confident and cruel, but also wise and calculating. Not to mention defeating the opponent, the chance of escaping from the opponent is slim...
Is it really counting on Luffy's aura of subduing wisdom and on-the-spot cheating?
Absolutely not!
Roman lowered his eyes, the light in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and he entered the 'hang up' state again.
After a moment of silence on the deck, "Ahhh, Sanji! I'm starving to death..."
"Okay, I'm going to cook..."
—————
As the sun gradually rose, Weiwei, who had changed into a normal blouse, began to explain the weather of the great route, but turned her head:
"Brothers, do you want to try my special drink~~~"
"Yes!" X3
"Gah!"
Luffy, Zoro, Usopp, and even Vivi's mount "Run Fast" all raised their hands to signal, which raised the blood pressure of the young princess who had heard Roman's words before!
"Are they suitable for this?!"
Facing Weiwei's questioning, Nami handed her a drink: a cold drink made from oranges grown on the back deck of the Golden Merry. ——Oranges were transplanted from Nami’s house. It can not only adjust the taste, but also prevent scurvy.
"If there is an emergency, they will get serious immediately."
"But... I'm still a little worried..."
Seeing Luffy and the others forming a circle on the deck discussing fishing with fishing rods, Weiwei was also infected by the other party's cheerful aura, and the serious expression on her face gradually softened.
"On this ship,"
Looking at the cheerful crowd, and Roman, who was slowly changing to "Abaaaba" expression while hanging up the phone and sailing, Nami grinned.
"All troubles will disappear in smoke!"
"Hmm...but that...Roman's words..."
"Don't worry, Roman has always been like this."
Nami walked towards the rudder of the ship with her own drink, talking as she walked.
"He always seriously exaggerates and exaggerates everything before he goes into battle, but once he is in battle, "
"And very dependable. I trust him—"
Speaking of which, Nami had already walked up to Roman who was hanging up in a 'dementia', and handed the drink in his hand to his mouth.
"Drink water."
Gulu Gulu~~
·····Is this the trust between companions?
Seeing the Straw Hat Pirates, who were heading towards powerful enemies, but still the same as before, the blue-haired girl named Wei Wei couldn't help feeling a wave of envy.
"I see,"
As time passed, an island appeared in the eyes of everyone.
"That's our next stop, the island named 'Little Garden'..."
"I'm a little worried about what Miss. said all Sunday..." Facing Weiwei's cautiousness, the others didn't think so.
"Our food is almost at the bottom, we have to collect ingredients here..."
This is Sanji from reality.
"Adventure, adventure! I smell adventure!"
This is Luffy who can't wait.
"Very well, I will also go to exercise my muscles and bones."
This is Zoro who has slept again.
Speaking of which, during this period of time, because Roman was always 'hanging up', everyone's exercise stopped unconsciously...
—————
And just when the Straw Hats were about to set foot in the 'Little Garden', they were in Twin Gorges, two islands apart.
"No, no!"
Facing 'Roman' who was easily beaten into the air again, the old man named Kulocas shook his head in disappointment.
"It's impossible for you to learn to be armed and domineering like this."
"The so-called armed domineering is when human beings face countless enemies stronger than themselves! With the spirit of never admitting defeat, fighting giant beasts, fighting humans, and fighting against natural disasters temper the invincible fighting will."
"With this passion to fight, you will be able to unleash the fighting power of smashing mountains with your fists, cutting the sea with your sword, and surpassing gold and iron. This is derived from the most original soul belief, from the purest life force... ··”
"I understand the truth, Senior Kulocas."
As the distance continued to go away, the 'white knight' left behind by Roman was almost unable to maintain his figure.
"But the biggest difference between humans and animals is that they know how to learn."
"The 'dominant spirit' developed through systematic learning will never lose to primitive monkeys who don't understand anything. Do you have any objections to me?"
"···············································
"Power is power, no matter how you get it, it is real."
Do you have to experience life and death to be considered strong?
Enilu on Sky Island has something to say. ——If it weren't for Luffy's Guotianke, his strength of hundreds of millions would not be compromised at all! Even without any armed domineering, he is still a strong one!
but:
The paper fruit is not the thunder fruit, and Roman is not Enel.
"The future is really slim, Senior Kulocas."
"I don't understand why you, a junior who has just entered the great route, are so anxious..."
Facing the old ship doctor's question, Roman smiled wryly.
"My captain is just about to face off against 'Sha Krokdar', one of the Seven Martial Seas, so I can't be in a hurry."
"Cough cough cough cough!!!"
"What did you say--"
Facing the anxious Kurokas, the 'Roman' who had gradually dissipated waved his hand.
"Goodbye, senior."
"Maybe it won't be long before you'll be able to read the news from the newspapers."
Either the Straw Hats defeated Crocodile; or Crocodile obtained the ancient weapon... In short, it would be shocking news. I just don't know if I will still be there by then...
