The Sin of Pride on the Straw Hat Ship

Chapter 198 The Root cause of turmoil, bringing a Kung Fu Manatee, there should be no problem!!

“Yes, no?”

Luffy nodded affirmatively, these are his disciples!

“No, manatees can’t cross the desert.”

Vivi had a cold sweat on her forehead and said very wordlessly.

The manatee hugged Luffy’s thigh and prayed.

“So cute!”

Vivi and Nami couldn’t bear to see it.

“How do you feel like you’ve done something too much?”

Vivi approached Nami’s ear and said, and Nami nodded in agreement, because Nami was also the first person to refute it.

“So what now?”

“I don’t know.”

The two women comforted each other together.

“Oh, yes.”

Joba suddenly took out a piece of flesh with bones to seduce the kung fu manatees, and finally under the advice of Joba.

The Kung Fu manatees burst into tears and waved goodbye to Luffy.

The group re-embarked on their journey.

“I said Luffy, do you really understand what the situation is now?”

Nami said in a serious tone.

“What’s the matter, since they want to follow, let them follow!”

Luffy said indifferently.

“There are so many of them, they can’t get into any city at all!”

“But…”

“No, but not.”

Watching Nami accuse Luffy, Reika’s face was somewhat unnatural, especially looking at her left shoulder, a slight bulge.

Bring one, there should be no problem with it… Cough cough…

“Really, if Joba hadn’t convinced them, the consequences would have been unimaginable!”

“No, that Nami, actually I want to say…”

Luffy glanced at Reika and wanted to tell Nami something, but before he could finish speaking, he was directly interrupted by Nami.

“Okay, you’re talking differently.”

“Oh.”

Luffy immediately said with his head down.

“That’s…”

Without taking a few steps, they all suddenly stopped, looked at the city in front of them, and were stunned at once.

It was a city almost buried in the desert, dilapidated and uninhabited, leaving only part of its former buildings exposed from the yellow sand.

Everyone’s originally relaxed mood suddenly sank.

“Is this Yuba?”

Luffy asked.

“No, this is ElMar, the place that was once called the Green City!”

“Vivi’s mood is even heavier.”

“Greentown?”

The crowd could not relate the dilapidated city in front of them to the word greentown.

“If you look at this city, you will understand what the Baroque Society has done to this country, and what the people of Alabastan have suffered!”

Vivi mentioned this, and her eyes surged with deep sadness.

The crowd walked toward the city.

“There’s nothing here!”

Luffy looked around, and he hadn’t even seen a single shadow pig until now.

“Although it is a ruined city now, it was not so long ago that it was a lush and vibrant city.”

Vivi was also a little difficult to accept for a while.

“Although the rain is scarce here, through certain methods of collection and storage, the basic water is enough, but in the past three years, not a drop of rain has fallen here.”

Vivi said to the crowd.

“Three years?! Has it been so long? ”

Don’t say it’s in the desert, even in a general place, three years without a drop of rain, it is an absolute disaster, and in the desert, such a disaster is undoubtedly magnified many times.

“But even if it doesn’t rain, isn’t there not the river we just passed?”

Suo Lower asked incomprehensibly.

“Yeah, can’t you draw water from that inland river?”

Usopp also found it strange.

“The answer is in front…”

Vivi led the crowd on their way.

“It has not rained for three years, which is also an unprecedented event in the kingdom of Alabastan, but there is only one exception, where there is more rain than ever, and that is the king of Albarna! Everyone said it was a miracle of the king, until one day it happened that the carriage transported to the king’s palace overturned, and people found dancing powder inside! ”

“Dancing powder?”

Joba and others did not understand.

But Nami already understood: “Dancing powder, also known as the powder that calls for rain, is something invented by a certain kingdom that does not rain before, and by burning the powder, it generates rain clouds to achieve the purpose of artificial rainfall.” ”

“Oh, that incredible powder, I’ve eaten it before, it’s hard to eat!”

Luffy suddenly realized.

“That’s not something to eat!”

“Wait, since it can rain artificially, isn’t that a good thing for this country?”

In an arid place, something that can rain, no matter how you think about it, is a good thing, so Usopp has doubts.

“In the beginning, it was indeed, so it was called dancing powder, because it was happy, but this thing has a fatal drawback, that is, other places nearby will become dry, and dancing powder is to put it bluntly, when it moves with the wind, the small clouds that should have become rain clouds are artificially allowed to grow rapidly and form rainfall, which is not generated out of thin air.”

“In other words, is this robbing the rain from nearby or neighboring countries?”

“That’s right, so the country that invented this powder had a big war with its neighbors, causing many casualties, and finally the world government explicitly banned the use of this kind of thing!”

Nami explains…
