The Ten Blades of the Pirate

Chapter 9 Crocodile

"Da da da"

In the quiet environment, the sound is particularly pleasant, and the sound of slightly rhythmic footsteps resounds continuously in the cabin.

"Crench."

There was a sound of opening the door, accompanied by the short disappearance of footsteps, and Natsume walked into a prison-like airtight room with a smile on his face.

"who are you?"

As soon as he stepped into the room, a shrill, slightly pussy voice made Natsume get goosebumps all over his body, making him sick to death.

"Mr.2, shut up for me."

There is no need to guess and know that this voice can only be made by the transgressive Von Clay, Xia Mu glared at him.

Natsume turned his head and glanced. There were four people imprisoned in the room, all of whom were handcuffed with sea stone handcuffs.

Sand Crocodile!
Mr1 Daz Bowness!
Mr.2 Von Clay!

Mr.3 Gal Tino!

"Hi, first time meeting, the 'former' King Shichibukai, Crocodile!"

Natsume ignored the others because they were insignificant. He fixed his eyes on Crocodile, who had been fiddling with the golden hook with his head down, and deliberately emphasized the word 'front'.

At this moment, Crocodile slowly raised his head to take a look, then stopped paying attention, and continued to lower his head against the wooden wall.

"Hehe, what? Are you decadent after being defeated by a rookie?"

Anyone can hear the mocking tone in Natsume's words.

Crocodile said nothing, apparently not caring about such words, but the others glared angrily.

"Crocodile, let's make a deal! I've done deals with two navies, and they're very pleasant."

Seeing that the goal of stimulating Crocodile was not achieved, Natsume simply started his old business.

As if interested, Crocodile finally stopped playing with his golden hook. He raised his head and asked with great interest, "What deal?"

In fact, Crocodile knew that the person in front of him was not simple, and that a person who could enter a naval warship freely and be so calm was not something ordinary people could do.

Obviously these two are not navy!
Why hasn't the navy come in?
Crocodile didn't want to be inferior, so he simply kept silent, but he was interested in trading, so it didn't matter to listen to him.

"How about I let you go?"

Natsume tentatively said without much hope.

Before Crocodile could speak, several of his subordinates sneered first.

"How do you think we got caught?"

Mr2 was the first to sneer, after all, Natsume didn't give him any face just now.

Having said that, Natsume remembered that Crocodile really didn't want to leave, otherwise Mr3 would have escaped when he came to rescue him.

However, why is Crocodile on Tina's ship? Didn't Dashiqi catch him? Could it be that Tina sent him to Push City?
Natsume couldn't figure it out, so he just didn't think about it, it's none of his business.

"It's just the first step. How can you trade if you don't let go! Do you rely on you, a prisoner?"

Natsume doesn't care about their attitude at all, the big deal is to change people.

"What do you want? I know it all, defeating Whitebeard? Or becoming the One Piece?"

"However, it seems that your strength is not worthy of your ambition."

Natsume smiled slightly, and said several words in a row, but it hurt Crocodile deeply, you can tell by his unhappy expression.

"I know that there is an excellent opportunity for you to defeat Whitebeard, but not now, how about this condition."

"Of course, I can also help you get rid of him, and you probably don't want to."

Natsume pressed on every step of the way, but he knew that Crocodile was tempted, because this might be his long-cherished wish in his life.

Crocodile smiled disdainfully and said, "If you are so strong, you still need to come to me for a deal."

"boom!"

Without saying a word, he let go of the aura of his whole body, quickly withdrew it, and regained his calm again, as if nothing had happened.

"huh, huh, huh"

Only a few people present knew how terrifying the aura just now was. They seemed to have passed through the gate of hell once, and they had no resistance in front of that vast and majestic aura, including Crocodile.

"Is the overlord color domineering? It seems to be stronger than the white beard!"

Crocodile's shocked look flashed across, and his eyes shone with excitement. Maybe he could really defeat Whitebeard?
Defeat Whitebeard!
It seems to have become Crocodile's demon!

At this moment, Natsume suddenly kept silent, waiting for Crocodile's reply.

After a long time, Crocodile said in a low voice: "What do you want? You don't want me to be your subordinate!"

"No! Subordinate? You are not strong enough."

Natsume said casually, but Crocodile's heart was shocked, and he looked at Yami behind Natsume in disbelief.

He believed that a strong man like Natsume would disdain to lie, but he didn't expect this big man with a strange shape to be so strong. You must know that he is a natural-type rustling fruit capable person.

There is no weak person in the natural department is not just talk!

"Devil Fruit!"

Natsume spit out four words lightly.

"A lot of devil fruits!"

"I want you to search the entire East China Sea! No matter what method you use, just like what you did in Alabasta, I hope it won't happen again, or else..."

"I will... kill you with my own hands!"

A sentence full of murderous intent was uttered by Natsume Yun calmly, but it made people feel even more terrifying.

"hehe"

Crocodile smiled nonchalantly, but his heart trembled.

"We trade on an equal footing, but it seems that you are at a disadvantage. After all, I only made a verbal promise. If there are any other requirements, I can satisfy you."

"Can I only be active in the East China Sea?"

Crocodile asked a question that he was more concerned about. After all, Donghai was too weak, and a strong man like him should not stay here.

"Wherever you want, as long as you can collect devil fruits, you can continue to form a work club and strengthen your strength."

Natsume will not stop Crocodile from strengthening himself, only in this way can he collect devil fruits faster.

In the sea area of ​​the East China Sea, Crocodile can quickly gather a huge force, relying on the huge number of people, should be able to collect some devil fruits in this sea area.

This is the purpose of his trip!

Since others are in the East China Sea, of course they have to make use of this resource. Crocodile has the means and strength, and it can be seen from the fact that he has turned Alabasta upside down by himself.

Crocodile is the perfect candidate.

"By the way, where did the navy go?"

Crocodile has been wondering why the navy hasn't come in yet, because it's obvious that the two people in front of him are here to save him, so it doesn't make sense for the navy to ignore it at all!

"Oh, you said the navy, I threw it into the sea!"

Natsume said indifferently.

"This warship is left to you, Yami, let's go."

The purpose of this trip has been achieved, there is no need to stay here any longer.

"Maybe I can make you stronger, so you don't have to use other means to kill Whitebeard."

Walking to the door, a faint voice came, but the person had long since disappeared.

"Get stronger!"

Crocodile murmured.

Since then.

Baroque Works stands tall again in the East China Sea.
