Chapter 128

His gaze flickers slightly.

Although he doesn't see anyone, he has roughly guessed who it is.

Calculating the timeline, that black guy had indeed been hiding in the first half of the Grand Line for a long time.

But to appear in Alabasta at the same time as him is quite interesting.

Luo Xing curls his lips, and his footsteps head in that direction.

Jack and Who's-Who follow closely behind.

Before long, they arrive at a dilapidated small town.

The town is very run-down, and there isn't a single resident in sight.

Clearly unusual.

As a transmigrator, Luo Xing knows that the residents of this town have probably all gone to participate in the civil war between the Alabasta Royal Army and the Rebel Army.

In the center of the town stand several strange-looking figures.

Five of them belong to the same faction, while another guy with hair tied into a "3" shape is on the opposite side.

"You must be the Blackbeard Pirates."

Mr. 3, Galdino, says:

"President ordered me to bring back your heads, so you’d better surrender obediently, otherwise you’ll have to enjoy the pain of becoming wax figures!"

He is a user of the Wax-Wax Fruit, and his strength ranking in Baroque Works is second only to President Crocodile, Mr. 1, and Mr. 2, so he is quite strong.

At least in the first half of the Grand Line, Mr. 3 is a well-known powerhouse.

However.

Crocodile’s arrogance made him choose the wrong opponent this time.

"Zehahaha!"

Blackbeard looks up to the sky and laughs, saying to Burgess and Laffitte on his left and right:

"Such a small fry dares to talk to me like this! Zehahahaha, it seems my fame as Blackbeard is not loud enough!"

Burgess clenches his fists and grins hideously:

"Captain, let me wipe this guy out!"

"No, don't kill him," Blackbeard waves his hand, "spare his life to report back to that Sand Crocodile; I am Blackbeard, don't underestimate me so much!"

"Understood, Captain!"

Burgess rushes toward Mr. 3 suddenly.

Mr. 3 is already stunned by the conversation between Blackbeard and the others.

Are these people so fierce that they don't even take the President seriously?

But he doesn't have time to think too much, because Burgess is faster than he imagined, arriving in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Mr. 3 is shocked and hurriedly makes a shield out of wax.

But it’s useless; it’s broken by a single punch from the immensely strong Burgess.

Mr. 3 is sent flying, seriously injured, his expression full of terror, no longer having his previous confidence.

"Go report back to that Sand Crocodile, you ignorant scum!"

Burgess grins wildly.

Mr. 3 is even more terrified and hurriedly crawls away.

After this encounter, Blackbeard and his group become even more ferocious, swaggering toward the capital of Alabasta.

Luo Xing has seen everything that just happened.

Sure enough, as he expected, the dark aura that made him extremely uncomfortable was emanating from Blackbeard.

Jack says in a muffled voice:

"Young Master, should I go kill these guys?"

Since Jack left Wano Country with Luo Xing, except for blocking a volcano with his butt once, he hasn't had a fight, and his hands have been itching for a long time.

He doesn't know Blackbeard and the others at all, but since they appeared in front of him, he wants to have a fight first.

Luo Xing says:

"No, it’s not time to kill them yet; that Blackbeard still has utility value to me."

The Summit War is an important part of Luo Xing’s plan.

And Blackbeard is an indispensable factor leading to the Summit War.

Therefore,

Although Luo Xing has no good feelings for Blackbeard, this is not the time to kill him.

"Follow them and see what they are coming to Alabasta for."

Luo Xing is quite curious about Blackbeard’s purpose for coming to Alabasta.

According to his memory, Blackbeard didn't seem to have come to Alabasta in the original work, and even if he had, he certainly didn't go deep.

But looking at the direction Blackbeard and the others are heading now, they are clearly going to the capital of Alabasta.

That is the lair of the Sand Crocodile, Crocodile.

Is Blackbeard here for the Ancient Weapon Pluton, or for Crocodile’s Warlord of the Sea position?

If it’s the former, then even if it affects the progress of the Summit War, Luo Xing will kill Blackbeard immediately.

He will never let Blackbeard obtain a weapon of mass destruction like an Ancient Weapon.

If it’s the latter, then Luo Xing can just sit on the sidelines and watch a good show of dogs biting dogs.

As the saying goes, the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.

121. The Cruel Crocodile, the Despairing Vivi, the Ignorant People

Mr. 3 crawls back to the Alabasta Royal Palace.

Crocodile is still interrogating Cobra.

Seeing Mr. 3, the Sand Crocodile, Crocodile’s expression immediately turns gloomy.

The high-ranking officers of Baroque Works, including Robin, Mr. 1, and Mr. 2, feel a chill in their hearts when they see Crocodile’s gloomy face.

Because they all know how cruel Crocodile is.

Once he is angered, the outcome will be a miserable death.

But Mr. 3 doesn't know yet that he has already angered his moody President.

Mr. 3 swallows, gasps for air, and says in a panic:

"President, the Blackbeard... the Blackbeard Pirates are coming!"

Crocodile stands up from the throne with a gloomy face, walks toward Mr. 3 step by step, and says in a chilling voice:

"Didn't I tell you to bring back their heads?"

Mr. 3 finally realizes that he has actually made the President angry!

His body shakes violently, endless fear rising from the bottom of his heart, and he says with trembling lips:

"Pre... President, this matter can't be blamed on me, it... it’s because they are too strong..."

"Shut up!"

Crocodile shouts coldly.

"It’s clearly because you are too weak, Mr. 3!"

The killing intent that seems to come from hell makes Mr. 3’s legs tremble.

He knows he is done for; the Blackbeard Pirates didn't kill him, but given the President’s cruelty, he definitely won't let him go!

Mr. 3 wants to escape, but in the face of Crocodile’s terrifying aura, he can't move at all.

Suddenly, a large hand grabs his neck.

Mr. 3 is lifted up by Crocodile.

"There are no weaklings in my team!"

"In this world, the weak have no value in living!"

Crocodile’s palm suddenly emits a powerful suction force, actually sucking all the moisture out of Mr. 3’s body!

In the blink of an eye, Mr. 3 turns into a withered mummy!

Crocodile casually throws the mummified Mr. 3 away, as if he had just killed an insignificant ant.

He looks at Cobra, whose face is turning paler, and sneers:
