56: Chapter 56 Alabasta! Conflict is about to arise and the situation escalatesThat night, Aruba, the royal palace.
A gentle breeze blew, and a ghostly figure sneaked in quietly.
King Cobra was pacing anxiously in his bedroom.The impending storm in Alabasta made the king extremely anxious.He had no idea when the reinforcements his daughter had mentioned would arrive, but it was not a good time to alert the enemy now.
"King Cobra, please come to the underground dark room to see me." A low voice came with the whistling wind, as if it sounded in all directions.
"Who?" Cobra asked in a low voice, the situation making him shudder.He didn't know whether the voice was friend or foe.The palace, once impenetrable and airtight, now felt as fragile as paper, giving him no sense of security.
Moreover, the palace's underground secret room was known only to him, the king, and deep down there lay the text of history!How had this person managed to get in so quietly?
"Don't worry, King Cobra, I'm not an enemy.I'm just one of the reinforcements your daughter brought.Please meet me in the underground dark room." The deep voice saw through his concerns and sounded in his ears again.
At this moment, King Cobra had no time to think too much.This person could sneak into the palace quietly and pass messages to him without being discovered by anyone, so he could also easily kill him.
King Cobra carefully went to the underground dark room alone.In the dark room, a cloaked figure stood with his back to him.
Sensing King Cobra's arrival, the man turned around, slowly lowered his hood, and revealed his true face.
"Monkey D.Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army!" Cobra was horrified, but he didn't dare to shout.He couldn't understand how his daughter could have summoned this person.
"Don't be so reserved, King Cobra." The dragon smiled, "Relax."
"You." Cobra's speech was already slurring.
"I'm here to help your country." Long said softly.
"The companion your Excellency's daughter has found is my son, Luffy.Luffy wants to help you and also wants to protect his companions.Coincidentally, we think the same way."
"Do you.want to liberate this country?" King Cobra asked.
Dragon: "This is just one of our goals.Don't worry, after the storm subsides, the Nefertari royal family will still control the government of this country.Alabasta will still be an important part of the World Government."
King Cobra breathed a sigh of relief.He couldn't drag the country into the abyss of destruction now!With this man's guarantee, he could cooperate without worry.
"What do you need me to do?" asked King Cobra.
Dragon: "We need you when Crocodile arrives."
"This!This is too risky!What if Alabasta falls!" Cobra was dumbfounded.
Dragon: "Right now, the Revolutionary Army has secretly guarded all the important transportation routes in Alabasta; the Navy will also be dispatched in advance and send a large number of troops; the Straw Hat Adventure Group represented by Luffy and his crew also has the power to overthrow everything with force alone!"
"The script is ready, and we're just waiting for you to perform it," Mr.Long said confidently."Crocodile will definitely fail."
"Huh.Please let me think about it." King Cobra took a deep breath.
…

On the other side, Luffy and his crew were already on their way to Yoba, the western city of the Alabasta Kingdom.
"Who are you?Straw Hat Boy!" A white-haired figure in the distance shouted.
"Smoker, Smoker?" Luffy was surprised.Why was this guy still running around everywhere stubbornly like in the original book!
"I came here." Smoker was about to draw out his seastone weapon, Ten Tsubasa.
"That's enough fun!Smoker!" Luffy interrupted him directly, his fingers flowing with domineering power, pointing at his chest.
Scored twice!
"Smoker, now is not the time to mess around.Big things are going to happen in this country soon.Since you are a navy, do your job well!"
Smoker struggled frantically, but to no avail.It was as if he was either being beaten or on his way to being beaten.
"Don't you understand what Crocodile has done in this country?" Luffy immediately told Smoker the whole situation.
"Are you serious?The Seven Warlords of the Sea actually did such a thing!No!He must be stopped!" Smoker left in a hurry.
Although it made perfect sense, he couldn't let this Iron-Headed Kid alert the enemy and scare off the Sand Crocodile.He immediately called Ryu's Den Den Mushi and asked him to be careful.
…
Luffy and his crew had already found a place to rest.
Luffy took out a Den Den Mushi again, and this time he dialed the contact number of his grandfather Garp.
"Moshimoshi?Grandpa Cap."
"Luffy?What's wrong with you?"
Do I have to recount the situation in Alabasta to everyone?For now, I can only tell Garp through the Den Den Mushi.
"Next, according to my plan, a major event will be reported to the navy.I hope that grandfather will lead the team immediately to stabilize the situation.Oh, and take Miss Jiyuan with you as well.She is a candidate for admiral, and she also needs this credit!"
"What have you done again!" Garp roared.
He's dispatching, and the Marine Headquarters' Admiral candidate is dispatching, is this to destroy the country?
"Don't worry, grandpa.It's nothing serious.We just have to take action now.It will be too passive if it's too late." Luffy said with a smile.

Love Luma.
Mr.2 and Xiao Feng came to the settlement here.
"eachDear residents of Eruma, I am a cadre of Baroque Works, codenamed Mr.2!
"I, on behalf of the Baroque Works, have announced that this city will experience artificial rainfall, the first of three years.Of course, this is only happening in this city!"
"Great!" Some residents of Aluma cheered.
"Mr.2 from Baroque Works!Why is it only in Eluma?Where is our Yoba?" asked someone from another city.
"I don't know either.This is the decision of our boss, Crocodile.If you want to know, you can only go to the rainy land and ask him in person!"
"The kingdom hero Crocodile is your boss?Okay, let's go ask him now!" There was a rustling among the crowd.
Xiao Feng left after making his announcement.This was a request from his friend Luffy on Den Den Mushi.It was such a small matter, he would go through fire and water for it!
What did Luffy say in Den Den Mushi?He wanted to make the victims doubt Crocodile's decision.Who doesn't worry about scarcity, but about inequality?
Who cares!

Sabo arrived at the Kingdom Army's base.
"Who is it!" Bell, the adjutant of the Alabasta Kingdom Guard, asked loudly.
"I'm here.to help you end the war!" Sabo revealed his golden hair.
…
————————
Cartleya, the rebel base.
Betty, the army captain disguised as a soldier, said, "It hasn't rained in our cities for three years!"
Rebel A: "Yeah!If it weren't for Baroque Works, our lives would be even harder!"
Betty: "Hey!I heard the boss of Baroque Works is Crocodile!"
Rebel B: "Hero Crocodile?With him, this country is safe!"
Betty: "Then do you think it's possible that the reason so many cities haven't seen rain for years is because of the rustling fruit."
Rebel C: "Impossible!Absolutely impossible!Crocodile is our savior!"

This day, Alabasta Palace.
King Cobra sat in the hall, and below him was Crocodile who came to pay him a visit.
"Your Majesty, what do you think of my proposal?" Crocodile's somewhat arrogant voice sounded.
"Crocodile, you are the leader of Baroque Works, right?" When King Cobra said this, the guards on both sides were a little surprised.
Crocodile: "Oh?You know everything, so what?"
Cobra thought: Is this the real purpose?If you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust!
Cobra said sternly: "Crocodile, what exactly are you trying to do by forming a clique for personal gain?"
Crocodile frowned when he heard this.When did this cowardly king have such courage?
Cobra continued, "Crocodile!Your goal is to usurp this country!"
Crocodile's eyes were gloomy and he remained silent.
This question was spread throughout the capital by the loudspeaker Den Den Mushi, and for a while, people were talking about it.
At this moment, Cobra took out the video Den Den Mushi to the astonishment of the people around him in the hall, and broadcast the following words to the entire Grand Line and even the whole world:
"Crocodile!Your ambition will never come true!Your ultimate goal is Pluto!I tell you!The ancient weapon - Pluto is in Alabasta, even if I completely destroy it!I won't let you get it!"
