Chapter 6 - Chapter 6: Gathering Storm in Alabasta

The Sovereign Vessel shimmered above the desert sands of Alabasta, cloaked in mirage and power. Below, the city of Alubarna bustled with unrest. Tensions brewed between royal guards and the mysterious rebels known as the Baroque Works. Rain hadn't touched the kingdom in months.

And Crocodile—Warlord of the Sea—tightened his grip.

Vegito crushed the crystal in his palm, letting the raw power fortify his already monstrous strength. His aura rippled across the ship.

Vivi stood beside him, her hand clenched tight. "He's hurting our people. Poisoning our land to take our throne."

"Not for long," Vegito replied.

Mission Start: Dismantle Baroque Works

The crew split into squads. Kuina and Tashigi took on agents in Rainbase. Kaya and Makino sowed hope among the sick in Nanohana. Nojiko sabotaged supply routes with surgical precision.

Vegito? He walked straight into the casino where Crocodile held court.

"You must be new," Crocodile said with a lazy grin. "Do you know who I am?"

Vegito smirked. "Dead meat."

Crocodile's sandstorm launched forward. Vegito raised one hand.

BOOM.

One punch shattered the casino and buried Crocodile under fifty tons of reinforced granite.

Restoring Alabasta

Vivi marched through the capital, documents in hand, and rallied both rebels and soldiers under a single banner.

Vegito handed her the Kingdom Stabilizer—a relic that spread artificial rainfall over Alabasta, reversing Crocodile's sabotage.

Rain fell for the first time in months.

People wept.

Private Chamber: Celestial Consequences

Shalria knelt at Vegito's feet, collared and broken, massaging his legs as he read through decrypted cipher texts.

"They'll retaliate, Master," she whispered.

"They're welcome to try," Vegito said without looking up.

He tapped into the Imu Surveillance Feed. Dozens of red-marked individuals lit up across the world.

Targets.

Corrupt kings. Celestial traffickers. Cipher Pol directors.

He smiled.

"The cleansing begins."
