Chapter 354: A Rain
Alabasta, Aluma.
In a residential house, a young man about 30 years old, Luo Nuoli, was lying on the bed weakly, his eyes were empty, and his breathing was low.
His sallow complexion and chapped lips showed that he had been dehydrated for a long time. In fact, he hadn't had a drop of water for almost three days.
He couldn't even secrete saliva from his mouth, and dry throat would bring even more pain. He knew that he was going to be unable to hold on any longer, and his consciousness gradually fell into darkness and confusion.
Just when he was about to completely lose consciousness, he suddenly felt a very sweet water flow into his mouth. The instinct of survival made him swallow subconsciously, and his vision gradually became clear. When he regained consciousness completely, he hurriedly pushed it away. With the kettle by his mouth, he sat up anxiously.
"Rose! You..."
The five-year-old daughter's face was yellowish, she shook the kettle, raised her head and opened her mouth, poured the last few drops of water into her mouth, and then smirked at him.
"Hey, no more..."
Luo Nuoli's eyes turned red instantly, but he couldn't secrete any tears. He held his daughter tightly in his arms, and said hoarsely: "Luosi, it's my father's fault, it's my fault... Dad lost all the family money. It's all gone, and I didn't bring back a drop of water... I still need to drink the water you got from a kind traveler with your pocket money..."
"Dad, don't die..."
"... Well, Dad won't die, and neither will Rose. Dad went out to find water, and he must, must find water!" Luo Nuoli couldn't cry, but felt a heart-piercing pain in his heart.
"You go to sleep first, after you sleep, Dad will bring water back." He hugged Rose, who was a little weak due to lack of water, to the bed, and staggered out to the yard by himself.
The cruel sun scorched the sandy ground, and the air was so hot that it was so hot that he, who was already short of water, found it very difficult to take every step in this environment.
After leaving the yard, the dry and cracked street came into view, and not far away, a familiar face could be seen lying on the ground, his chest rising and falling had been negligible, and he was moaning in a daze.
Looking for water? Where can water be found?
His eyes were lost and hopeless.
The entire Eluma is about to dry up!
Why...why is this happening? Why didn't it rain for more than three months? Why would the canal be broken at this time? Why the price of water in the rainy land has risen to be so expensive...
"God, my lord, everyone is fine, please help us!" He knelt down dejectedly.
Click——
As if hearing his call, a thunderbolt suddenly exploded in the sky!
He raised his head suddenly and looked up to the sky expectantly. The acquaintance lying on the ground not far away seemed to have opened his eyes.
Clouds, clouds are coming...
It's cloudy...
Snapped--
A drop of water hit him hard on the face.
"It's, really, it's raining?"
"It's raining?!"
A voice from a distance responded.
In an instant, this seemingly dry and dead city came alive, and countless people rushed out of their homes, raised their heads, and opened their mouths wide.
"It's really raining?!"
"Woo woo woo..."
"It's saved! Eluma is saved!"
Luo Nuoli couldn't yell, he heard his daughter running out, cheering and jumping beside him, and then hugging his neck, still maintaining the posture of kneeling on the ground, with his mouth wide open, feeling the heavy rain hitting him Mouth, mixed with tears.
"Saved... saved..."
...
"It's raining!"
"It's really raining! Hahaha..."
Even in the rainy land that is not too short of water, people will cheer for the rain. Only those water sellers who are secretly controlled by Crocodile will look ugly.
And in the midst of the celebration, suddenly a brigade of naval soldiers rushed out, sealed up the casino, arrested the water sellers, aroused waves of chaos, and made people hide in their homes again.
'Nicole Nami', who had already hid in the bookstore, watched everything on the street from the window, with a surprised expression, why is it raining? She knows best, after using that amount of dancing powder, it is normal that it will not rain for the next six months!
Recalling the sudden drop in temperature before the rain, she looked towards the desert. Everyone thought that the drop in temperature was due to cloudy weather, but the cold air coming from afar made her feel very familiar.
"Could it be him... Holo..." Her face became a little unnatural, and her heart tightened with worry.
...
Albana, the palace, and King Cobra were also surprised by the rain.
Three days ago, he received a call from the world government, informing him of Crocodile's conspiracy in Alabasta and telling him to keep quiet, and someone from the navy would deal with it.
He was angry and blamed himself.
The anger is at Crocodile, and the self-blame is because he is unaware of this kind of thing. The people of the kingdom may have to work hard in the drought for a long time. This is completely his negligence as a king!
But today...it's raining.
"My lord father!" Princess Weiwei, who was still a little girl and just 13 years old, ran over happily: "It's not just raining in Albana this time, it's raining everywhere in the center of the kingdom, except for the cities along the coast. It's raining!"
She doesn't yet know the truth about the drought.
Cobra didn't know that if Crocodile hadn't been reported, his 14-year-old daughter would go undercover in the Baroque studio in another year to find a way to save the country.
He touched Weiwei's head and said with a smile, "That's really great, Weiwei!"
...
in the desert.
Crocodile, who ate the rustling fruit and hated rain the most, raised his head and let the pouring rain hit his face with gloomy eyes.
He threw in the towel.
He stopped running.
Continuing to run is nothing more than self-defeating.
"Cut, monster." With a cold snort, he turned and walked in the direction of Ji Xing and Qingzhi.
On the other side, Qingzhi stretched out his palm, felt the power of the raindrops, looked at Ji Xing, who was restrained by the domineering look on the opposite side, and said, "So it was because of this incident that you appeared in front of me and slashed at me?" ? Well, do you need more ice? The rainfall brought by those ice is not enough, right?"
"Uh..." Ji Xing smiled: "As an admiral, don't you learn navigation knowledge? If it doesn't rain in Alabasta, it doesn't mean that there are no rain clouds, but because of the climate, rain clouds are difficult to turn into rain. Your ice and My arrogance is just an introduction to lure those hard-to-fall rains to fall.
Otherwise, ordinary small islands are fine. If we want to bring heavy rain to a superpower like Alabasta, we will all be exhausted. "
"Is that so?" Aokiji scratched his wet hair: "It seems... Teacher Zefa said it in class? It seems that he didn't... Sigh."
He sighed for a long time, and returned to his lazy look: "Is it worth it to bring rain to Alabasta at the expense of exposing the contact with the devil's son Nicole Robin?"
"What do you think?" Ji Xing put the knife back into its sheath.
Qingzhi nodded clearly: "It's not surprising that you have such an amazing domineering aura."
He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed again: "That's it. I will truthfully report everything that happened today to the Marshal of the Warring States. Well, judging by the justice of the Marshal of the Warring States, probably I will appreciate your actions very much, and of course a little bit of defense is indispensable.
Just a reminder, you may have already understood, the son of the devil, Nicole Robin, you'd better have less contact, it's good for you, and good for her... Well, I guess a man like you won't listen to this kind of advice. "
He shook his head, took Crocodile who came to him and lit a cigar, and walked towards the coast. When he passed by Ji Xing, he turned his head and said: "Incomparable freedom, firmly believe that what you do is right, and Don't care about the side effects that will bring, many of these people eventually become famous pirates.
You seem to be a little different from them, and it’s hard to say where the difference is... Well, anyway, I still hope that there won’t be a day when we won’t become real enemies. "
Ji Xing looked at him and said with a smile: "When one day you doubt whether what you are doing is correct, then don't doubt it, it is wrong."
Qingzhi stopped and turned his back to Ji Xing, who said again: "Goodbye, General Qingzhi."
"Ah... goodbye."
Qingzhi just shook his hands back and continued walking, while Crocodile, who was following him, looked back at Ji Xing with unclear meaning.
That newspaper...doesn't seem to have exposed Hades? Was it encrypted and not released, or did the information he and Nicole Robin send to the World Government contain no Pluto content? Hmm, interesting.
"See what I do? Let's reflect and reform in prison, Crocodile."
One sentence made Crocodile's face hideous with anger, and Ji Xing turned around and walked towards this country that was celebrating because of the rain!
