Chapter 374: Returning to Alabasta
Renhai Army Headquarters, Marineford.
"News came from Sakazuki's side that the Straw Hat crew has already taken the Alabasta commission and has already set off. If nothing goes wrong, Straw Hat Luffy will soon connect with the Revolutionary Army." Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan touched his chin and rubbed his temples.
"Isn't that great? I think the Revolutionary Army will have big moves soon. Don't forget, the Revolutionary Army now has Vegapunk. After such a long time, they should be prepared."
After speaking, Karl walked to the bay window and exhaled a smoke ring: "They are only missing a catalyst."
"That's why I have a headache. The World Government hasn't asked me for support for a while. I always feel a bit uneasy. You might not believe it, but they didn't have any reaction to Luffy arriving at Laugh Tale. It's too abnormal."
"Abnormal?" Karl touched his chin, remembering that he had briefly communicated with Imu. In this way, Imu seemed to believe his prophecy and was prepared to go all-in.
Suppression? Covering up the news?
No need. Just be prepared for the final battle. If they win, the World Government's rule will continue; if they lose, it doesn't matter. For Imu, her subordinates are just tools; she is the most important.
She can afford to lose and can afford to wait. After all, she is immortal.
"In any case, be prepared! If the World Government really plans to drag the Renhai Army into the water, then the Renhai Army will have to end this farce with its own hands."
After speaking, Karl opened the window and looked back at Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan: "It should be fine now. I'm going back to the Sky Island. Call me if anything happens. Goodbye!"
*Whoosh~* Karl turned into a stream of light and disappeared. Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan laughed dumbly.
5 days later, Alabasta.
"Ah~ I really miss this! The last time I came here was two years ago, right?" Luffy looked at the oasis in front with interest, which was completely different from the scene last time.
It seems Vivi is doing quite well!
Sanji said impatiently: "Don't sigh. Finding Vivi-san is the top priority. Let's go!"
Robin frowned and said: "No need, someone is already coming."
I saw a fireball flying in the sky, heading straight for the Straw Hat crew. A look of joy appeared on Luffy's face, and he shouted loudly: "Staff Staff Sabo!!! Is that you?"
*Boom~* Staff Staff Sabo made a brilliant entrance, holding the brim of his hat and smiling: "Long time no see, Luffy."
Luffy hugged Staff Staff Sabo and said happily: "It's so great to see you, Staff Staff Sabo. Let me tell you *******"
The brothers chatted for a while. Staff Staff Sabo remembered the business and looked at Luffy seriously: "Luffy, you are here to help Vivi transfer the refugees, right?"
Luffy nodded: "Yeah! How did you know?"
Staff Staff Sabo smiled slightly: "Very simple, because that mission was specially prepared for you."
Luffy was shocked: "Ah? What do you mean?"
"When the newspaper reported that you would leave your pirate identity and join the Adventurers' Guild, we united with Queen Vivi to release this mission to the Adventurers' Guild. Of course, this mission is just a cover; the real purpose is to have you come to Alabasta."
Speaking of this, Nami couldn't help it: "So, the reward and everything are fake?"
"Haha, of course not. The Adventurers' Guild wouldn't allow such a thing to happen. The reward has already been transferred in advance. As long as Vivi announces that your mission is completed, you can collect the reward from any Adventurers' Guild."
Zoro, who was thinking with his head down, his eyes lit up. He looked up at Staff Staff Sabo: "Now that we are here, what is your ultimate goal?"
"Hahaha, was it guessed? Then I won't sell it." Staff Staff Sabo looked at Luffy and said seriously: "Luffy, your father wants to see you."
"Eh!!!"
Everyone was shocked, including Luffy himself.
"Staff Staff Sabo, you mean, my... dad? But I don't know him?"
*Ahem*, very good, the reason is sufficient. I have to say, the parenting concepts in the pirate world indeed have a tiny bit of problems.
Even if Luffy knew his father was the famous Revolutionary Dragon, he had no emotional fluctuations. After all, Dragon was just a name to him, a stranger.
In short, there was no bond.
"Well, Luffy, although Mr. Dragon is not a qualified father, he has indeed been silently watching your growth. Go talk to him! After all, he is your biological father, isn't he?"
Thinking of meeting a father who was Move Move Like a stranger, Luffy felt a bit of a headache: "But, Vivi's side..."
Staff Staff Sabo smiled and said: "You don't have to worry about this. Mr. Dragon is now in Alubarna. Once you get there, you will be able to see Vivi."
Since Staff Staff Sabo said so, Luffy had nothing to hesitate about and agreed: "Okay, let's go to Alubarna now."
Two hours later.
"Luffy, Sanji, Nami!!!"
"Vivi!!!"
Sanji took the lead, rushed to Vivi with a "boiling sheep" charge, knelt on one knee, and looked at Vivi affectionately: "Vivi, my Queen, long time no see! You are becoming more and more beautiful and moving!"
*Bang!*
Nami punched Sanji away and then hugged Vivi: "Great, Vivi, I missed you so much!"
"I also miss everyone! Everyone, come in and sit! I have prepared a sumptuous banquet to receive you."
"Wuhu~"
At the banquet, the Straw Hat crew reminisced with Vivi. They also learned the ins and outs of Vivi becoming Queen, and one by one they were furious.
"The World Government is too much! Vivi, don't worry, we will definitely help you take revenge! We must not let Mr. Cobra die in vain."
Vivi pursed her lips and smiled: "I am very happy to have your help, but it is not so easy to defeat the World Government."
"So, you led the people of Alabasta to join the Revolutionary camp?" Robin's question hit the nail on the head.
Vivi was stunned for a moment, then smiled: "Yes, after my father died, I completely saw the true face of the World Government, so I decided to join the Revolutionary camp, trying to overthrow the World Government and give my father an explanation."
Robin frowned: "The power of the World Government is far from as simple as it appears on the surface. What does the Revolutionary Army plan to do?"
"The Revolutionary Army has made all preparations, just waiting for the horn of the general attack. Robin, we need your help."
Dragon walked out from the corner, looking at Robin with burning eyes.
Everyone present was stunned. This was the first time they had seen the legendary Revolutionary Army Chief, Luffy's... father.
Dragon took off his hood and looked at Luffy.
"Luffy, you've grown up..."
