Les stood on the deck, looking out at the vast yellow desert. The rolling hills added a layer of color to the monotonous desert.

He could also clearly feel the temperature rising. Waves of heat kept coming from the desert in front of him.

The desert in front of him was completely barren, with no human habitation at all, and it looked lifeless.

""Les, where should we stop?" Nami asked standing behind Les.

At this moment, the Ark Proverbs was hovering in the air, and had not yet entered the border of Alabasta. There was an empty sea below.

"This," Rice frowned, but was a little troubled. No matter where it stopped, this ship with a huge amount of gold would attract people's covetousness. Unless one of them stayed to watch the ship, it would be uneasy.

Luffy's crew did this, and most of the time it was Zoro who watched the ship.

But Rice didn't want to do this. He wanted to take all three women with him.

"Haha, why do we have to stop the boat? Can't we take it wherever we go?" Robin's sweet voice came.

Hearing this, Rice's eyes lit up and smiled:"Yes, Robin is right, we don't need to stop the boat at all."

Nami slapped her head and reacted.

Yes, this is the Ark Maxim, a flying ship, which can't just stay in the sea. The deep inland does not prevent it from taking off.

The Kingdom of Alabasta is very large, but most of it is desert, with vast land and sparse population.

After three years of drought, it has evolved into a country in the desert, with only a few oases still inhabited.

As the Ark Maxim went deeper, green plants, houses and people gradually appeared.

This is the trading port of the Kingdom of Alabasta, Narohara.

After many days, Rice returned here again.

For some reason, Rice inexplicably thought: I, Hu Hansan, am back again.

With Rice's eyesight, he could vaguely see the appearance of the town. The houses that were destroyed under the giant ship had been rebuilt, and the flow of people was even greater than the first time. The streets were crowded with people, and there were bustling exchanges. There were basically no clouds in the sky, so the Ark Maxim was soon noticed by people.

A woman accidentally looked up and saw a black dot in the distant sky slowly getting bigger, gradually turning into the shape of a ship.

"Oh my god! What is that, a ship flying in the sky!" She exclaimed in surprise

"It's so big!"

As the distance got closer, she found that the ship was simply a behemoth, even bigger than the giant ship that destroyed the town a dozen days ago.

""Run away!"

More and more people discovered the existence of this ship, and the shadow in their hearts made them subconsciously begin to escape.

In a panic, people ran anxiously and accidentally touched the goods on the street stalls. Many people fell down, causing congestion behind them.

Soon, the scene became a mess.

Rice saw it clearly from the sky, sighed in his heart, and said to Nami:"Let it rain, let everyone know who is coming!"

Nami nodded calmly, stepped on the deck and flew into the air, and clouds automatically appeared under her feet.

Then she stretched out her hands, and the next moment, her arms became virtual, and began to continuously transform into white clouds.

A few seconds later, large groups of clouds appeared next to the Ark Proverbs.

Under Nami's control, the clouds began to convect continuously. Movement. Water vapor continued to condense. The white clouds gradually turned black.

"Wait, why are there white clouds above?

"It hasn't rained here for several days. Is it going to rain today?"

"No, there were clearly no clouds just now, how could so many clouds appear out of nowhere?"

"Wait, I've got it. Don't you think this scene is familiar? This is how Miss Nami made it rain for us."

Everyone paused, looking at the dark clouds in the sky with shocked expressions.

They couldn't help but look forward to it. Could it be that Mr. Rice is back?

Looking at the dark clouds that were ready to go, someone reacted, squeezed through the crowd and rushed home, carrying a bunch of pots and pans.

He came back from the capital Alba, and had experienced Miss Nami's many rainfalls. He was familiar with this! When people saw his actions, they couldn't help but be stunned, and soon realized something. They took action and took out tools that could collect water from their homes and spread them on the ground.

I wonder if it was a coincidence? After people were ready, the dark clouds rumbled and it began to rain.

After a long time, the rain curtain gradually subsided, the dark clouds dispersed, and the sun was seen again.

Everyone looked at the pots and pans and buckets filled with rainwater in ecstasy.

The shallow ones have been exposed, and even the half-person-high buckets are half full.

Although they are in an oasis here, and It is still a port city, but that does not mean they do not lack water. Water resources are still very precious. The price of water here is much more expensive than meat.

Most people began to carry water to their homes, and only a few people looked at the magnificent spaceships in the sky.

Rice looked around the town, and finally chose a relatively open area, and controlled the Ark Maxim to fly over.

Now, of course, he has to go down and harvest a wave of treasure chests.

Except for the residents of Cattleya and the capital Albana, Rice has not collected treasure chests in most other places in the Kingdom of Alabasta.

Some residents followed the Ark Maxim and ran over to see if Lord Rice had returned.

Although it was only a small part of the people, there were still several thousand people gathered together.

The location of the Ark Maxim is to the east of Narohara. There are basically no green plants here. It is considered a marginal area.

""Boom!"

The fall of the Ark Proverbs stirred up a cloud of sand, and in the mist, a wooden ladder appeared, with a golden ribbon engraved on the edge.

Nami used her ability to sweep away the smoke.

Standing on the wooden ladder, looking at the suddenly bright scenery in front of her, Nami stretched lazily, and the fullness of her chest was about to burst out.

"Haha, let's go. It seems someone is here to pick us up." Rice, dressed in white, looked into the distance and saw a large group of people rushing here.

Nojigo was wearing black short leather pants and a light-colored vest, showing her beautiful figure. At this time, she took Rice's arm and chuckled,"Rice is still so popular."

Robin gathered a strand of hair, looking a little hesitant, but soon became firm.

The four of them walked and met thousands of residents who came to find them halfway.

After seeing Rice's face clearly, many people suddenly had tears in their eyes and covered their faces and cried.

"Mr. Rice! Ms. Nami!"

"It's really Mr. Rice! Everyone!"

"Mr. Rice, have you been okay these days? I really can't understand why a good man like you would be wanted by the Navy." A strong man stepped out of the crowd and said excitedly.
