The Monster King of One Piece

What a hassle!

This was Yilu's first reaction after receiving the information.

He came to Alabasta this time with really little intention to cause trouble, but things always came to him, which made people very helpless.

Fortunately, based on his understanding of the Baroque Working Society, it seemed that no one except the president Crocodile was a big threat, so as long as he was prepared, there wouldn't be much of a threat on the rest of the journey.

But the idea of ​​heading to the rainy land requires a twist.

So Ilu, who took out the map and looked at it, simply turned back to Yorba, returned to Eruma via Yorba, and then took a boat directly to the royal capital Albana.

With Albana's prosperity, it should be very easy to get rid of the remaining gold, silver and jewelry.

In this way, when the opportunity comes, he will quietly contact the royal family. If not, Ilu will not plan to stay. When the money is available, he will prepare to leave Alabasta and go to Drum Island.

When Ilu started to return to Eluma along the road, in a bar hundreds of miles away from Eluma, Ilu, Plasma Dancer, Infinite Kelp and Barna were painted one by one with the sound of beeping. The black and white picture was printed.

The telegraph bug is a large snail similar to a telephone bug that can send faxes and print photos.

The woman with a slender waist and long wavy hair held a pipe in one hand and picked up the photo in the other: "It seems that there is a job coming."

"Well, let's go." He was answered by a bald man. The man put down the wine glass in his hand and stood up.

Soon after, a car pulled by a giant turtle drove away from the bar and quickly headed towards Eluma.

On the way back, we were attacked again by sand thieves, but unfortunately this time the sand thieves did not bring the moving crab.

After repelling the sand pirates, Barna's face showed a worried look, because a large amount of sand and dust appeared on the horizon in the distance.

This is a sign that a sandstorm is coming!

The arrival of the crisis forced Yilu and others to form a circle around the camels on the spot, while everyone hid in the center.

The wind and sand came quickly, and the sand quickly buried everyone.

However, in the process, Yilu saw a carriage traveling in a sandstorm.

The cart seemed to be pulled not by a horse, but by a huge turtle.

But the wind and sand soon blocked his sight, and the turtle car quickly disappeared into the sand.

Soon after, as the sandstorm passed, Yilu and others emerged from the sand, dusted off the sand on their bodies, got on their camels, and set off on the road again.

Ilu also asked Barna a question at this time. It seems that camels and moving crabs are not the only ones that can be used as means of transportation in the desert.

Barna also gave the answer: "There are many animals in the desert. In addition to the most basic camels, the sand monitor lizard is also a good means of transportation if it can be tamed. Others include the banana crocodile, a specialty of Alabasta, which is ferocious. Monsters can also run in the desert, such as sand-walking turtles, which are the best choice for rich people to build desert carriages, as well as running ducks, moving crabs, wandering snakes, etc.

But if you want to get these, you can only rely on chance and strength. Just like the moving crab when we came here, if you don't have strength and technology, you can't tame the moving crab. "

"Okay." Yilu glanced at the vast desert and could only sigh.

He didn't have much time to find a means of transportation in the desert, but he wanted to enjoy a better desert trip next time.

At least get a Desert Turtle like those guys before.

The next trip went much smoother, and soon Ilu came to Airuma again.

After handing the agreed money to Uncle Barna, Ilu and others who boarded the boat waved goodbye to Barna and headed up the Santo River.

Albana, the capital of Alabasta, is just east of the upper reaches of the Santo River.

The Santo River is very wide, and there is no unpredictable weather like the Grand Line.

Under the good weather, after finishing his exercise, Yilu took out his fishing rod from the cabin and enjoyed his leisure time.

There are many ships on the Santo River, but most of them are merchant ships.

Ilu's expedition flag is quite conspicuous in this environment, because there are so few explorers on the Grand Line.

Although the people on the merchant ship identified the flag on Ilu's ship, they had no intention of getting close. Many people even cast a wary look at Ilu and others on the ship.

Ilu also knows the reason for this.

Merchant ships on the sea are not easy to impersonate, but expedition ships may become pirates if they change their flags.

So over time, people have also been wary of exploration ships.

But in any case, explorers are not pirates after all, so they will not encounter too many obstacles when traveling to various places.

Of course, there is one more step, which is to register with the Explorers Guild.

That's right, the Explorers Guild.

In addition to the Explorers Guild, there are actually many other unions around the world, such as the Bounty Hunters Guild, the Merchant Union, the Craftsmen Guild, the Archaeological Guild, etc.

It's just that the reputations of these unions are not very big, so they don't appear to be very conspicuous.

But as long as you are registered, you can find information in the official website, and even if you make contributions that are published in newspapers, you will be treated like celebrities.

Ilu's expedition group was registered, which is why his star flag was recognized as the explorer's flag.

The only problem is that his flag is not famous yet, so it attracts attention.

But Ilu didn't care, sitting alone on the bow of the boat while fishing and admiring the beautiful scenery nearby.

After a while, the Plasma Dancer brought iced Coke and snacks to Ilu. At the same time, she sat down nearby and looked curiously at the strange fish that Ilu caught in the bucket.

"Captain, this fish with bones all over its body and a horse face shouldn't be delicious!" She pointed at the fish in the bucket with a look of disgust on her face. It was really ugly.

"I don't know. I remember buying an Alabasta Food Encyclopedia in Eluma. See if there is any record of this strange fish in it. If it's not late, I will throw it back into the river." Ilu said. A yawn.

The Maiden quickly returned to the cabin and took out a thick book.

Her cooking skills have improved significantly recently, thanks to the cooking books she bought.

However, Ilu felt that it would be better to find a cook when he had time.

Otherwise, it would be really uncomfortable when sailing on this sea.

"There is an introduction, but this horse-faced bone fish is only suitable for making soup." Plasma Dancer looked excited: "Then let's have soup tonight, but we also need some fresh mushrooms to make it taste better. I remember they don't have it on the ship. .”

"No, just go find some kelp, but remember to open it separately. We can eat the kelp, but I don't want to eat the kelp." Ilu waved his hand.
