Pirates: After being exiled by the Warring States Period, I started building a city

For Luo Lan.

Use the previous method to bring people back to the branch...

One is the low efficiency. Tina and Smoker take turns to go out, and it takes about half a month to complete a round.

In the end, only one or two hundred people were brought back.

Another reason is that it would be easy for the World Government or the Navy Headquarters to notice it.

After all, as Junlin shows up more and more, they will sooner or later track down Junlin's movements, and the result will be...

Every time King's Landing takes action, many civilians disappear.

How does this work?

Maybe in the future the World Government will use this as bait and send people to infiltrate the 157th branch.

Therefore, Luo Lan needed a safe source of soldiers.

If you ask where in the world you can recruit a few thousand soldiers, it won’t attract other people’s attention.

That must be Alabasta.

As the largest kingdom in the pirate world, it has a population of tens of millions and hundreds of thousands of regular royal troops.

Here, the kingdom recruits tens of thousands of people every year, and as many as hundreds of thousands.

No one would find it strange to recruit a few thousand more people in the name of the king.

It's simply the best place to recruit soldiers.

That night, Luo Lan talked a lot with Cobra and finalized many details.

In the end, Cobra agreed to one additional request.

Right now...

Take Bell with you.

Cobra's logic is very simple. Luo Lan can train ordinary people to be stronger than Bell.

Well, if Bell goes with us...

Wouldn't I be stronger than others in two years?

You know, Alabasta is also a kingdom that has suffered from pirates all the year round, and Cobra is quite eager for strong people.

Especially for someone like Bale who is 100% loyal to the royal family, how could he not want it?

If Luo Lan hadn't been so resistant, he would have even wanted to send Ikalem and Jaka over.

But then again.

The reason why Luo Lan finally agreed was because of Bell's ability.

Animal Series - Bird-Bird Fruit - Falcon Type.

After improving his strength, he could be a scout for the King's Landing Fleet, or even a gunner in over-the-horizon artillery calibration...

That's still quite appropriate.

Soon, seven days passed in a flash.

Inside Tana's bridge.

The detection results of the observation radar are displayed on the main screen in front.

Although the screen was filled with densely packed light spots, one cluster of light spots was particularly eye-catching.

because...

Compared with other light spot clusters, there are several light spots here that are obviously much brighter.

It was the sailing ship that Crocodile took when returning from the volcanic island.

This has already been confirmed.

Now, we just have to wait for it to drive into the ambush circle.

Now Tina is with four steel battleships, all hiding behind an uninhabited island.

Just out of sight of ships passing on the main routes.

"Luo Lan, can you really make this arrangement work?"

On the side, Robin felt that his worldview was somewhat shattered. Did the natural system have such a weakness?

The Robin at this moment is not the Robin two years later.

I think the natural system is invincible.

I don't know what Crocodile's weakness is, so I reacted like this.

Luo Lan raised the corner of his mouth slightly.

"Every fruit has its weaknesses."

"Of course, if you want to find a person's weakness, the best way is to learn it!"

"These days, knowledge is power!"

Although Robin can also be called a scholar.

But she studied archaeology...

Knowledge of physics and chemistry...

Robin is also illiterate!

After returning to Branch 157, I will have to find someone to help Robin cram in the basics, just like Kaya did.

"Colonel, the target has entered the ambush circle!"

"Send a message to Tina immediately and start the attack according to the planned plan!"

"Yes, Colonel!"

------

A sailing ship bound for Alabasta.

Crocodile stood at the bow of the ship with a gloomy expression.

Originally, Robin was just sent to eavesdrop on the people from King's Landing to find out where they came from.

But the result?

Robin is gone!!

You know, Robin is the key to his whole plan, without her...

Even if we take over Alabasta and get that stone tablet, it will be useless.

Because no one can understand what is written on it.

Damn...

If I had known, I wouldn't have let Robin go!!

"Boss, we're almost to Alabasta!"

"Contact all agents as soon as you get ashore and have them come to Rain Banquet to see me!"

"No problem, but Miss. All Sunday is not here, and none of the other agents have seen you, Boss. I'm afraid you won't be able to prove your identity when the time comes!"

Daz Bonis also didn't know Crocodile's identity at first.

Even when we were on the volcanic island, we didn't know.

It was only because Robin was present at that time that he learned that Crocodile was the real boss of Baroque Works.

But now that Miss. All Sunday is missing, no one can prove the identity of the Boss.

At that time, even if I speak up, I don’t know whether others will believe it or not.

You know, Robin used to be the one who contacted and gave orders to the agents of Baroque Works.

In short, it is very troublesome.

"Prove identity?"

"unnecessary!"

"Those who don't want to obey my orders will be killed!"

A strong murderous aura erupted from Crockerdale.

For him, it doesn't matter whether these agents recognize him or not.

disobedient?

Kill a few people and the rest will obey.

That's it!

Even if I'm really not the boss of Baroque Works, so what?

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Just then, a series of sharp whistles sounded in the sky.

Then...

More than ten shells fell at an extremely fast speed, and one of them even hit the stern of the ship directly.

For a moment, wooden fragments were flying all over the sky.

The entire stern of the ship was blown away, and seawater poured into the ship frantically.

"Damn it, who is attacking us?"

"Boss, the bombardment came from behind that island!"

"Impossible. We are at least 3 kilometers away from the island. Doesn't that mean the enemy hiding behind the island is at least 5 or 6 kilometers away from us?"

Crocodile didn't believe it at all.

How can there be artillery that can fire 5 or 6 kilometers away?

This is unscientific, right?

"Boss, although it's a little unbelievable, according to the trajectory of the shell just now, it is definitely there!"

"Mr. 1, release the boat immediately, let's go to the island first!"

"Yes, Boss!"

Although it is three kilometers away.

And some are shelling themselves.

But Crocodile had to make this choice.

Who made him and Daz Bonis both Devil Fruit users?

If the boat is gone, others may still be able to grab a piece of wood to save their lives.

But for them, they really can only wait for death.

Still drowned!!

Soon, Daz Bonis carried a small boat and threw it into the sea.

The two jumped up immediately.

"Mr. 1, you row the boat, and I'll be responsible for intercepting the shells!"

"Okay, Boss!"

Daz Bonis nodded and picked up the two oars from the boat.

He shot with both hands and rowed madly.

At this time, the second batch of shells finally fell.

Boo hoo hoo hoo hoo...

"Shalan!"

With a flip of his palm, a mini sand storm suddenly formed in Crocodile's hand.

Then threw it forward.

After leaving his hand, the sand storm quickly began to expand hundreds of times.

It blocked the path of the falling shells and forcibly changed their trajectory.

In the end, none of them landed within a hundred meters of the boat.

Crocodile didn't have time to react because of the sudden situation.

But now, with preparation, his abilities are still very suitable for interception.

Not only can it intercept from a distance, it also has the ability to cause a lot of area damage.

This means that he doesn't need to intercept accurately, but only needs to determine the general direction.

"Humph, it turns out that using this move in the ocean is more than ten times less powerful than in the desert!"

Looking at the salon curls in front of him, Crocodile was very dissatisfied.

But there is no way, who made him...

Is it on the sea?
