Chapter 75
Alabasta.
Oasis city, Eruma.
Dotto Uncle told Vivi entire group all the things that happened in Alabasta during this period.
Vivi then came to understand, "Is it because there is no one on Aluma Street because everyone has gone to produce dancing fans?"
Dotto uncle replied:" Yes, a lot of dust is generated when dancing powder is produced, and it is impossible to do it in the city, so the residents have temporarily moved to the outskirts not far away, living in tents, and the king’s army is responsible for the resettlement."
After calculating the time, Lynn suddenly said: "The delivery time required by Golden Lion is 26 days, so it's almost time for the transaction?"
"That's right. "Dotto uncle nodded," To be precise, the delivery time is tomorrow afternoon."
"Time is very urgent." Lynn said.
"It is true."
Dotto was uncle nodded, and then stood up and said to everyone: "Her Highness the Princess, you are going to the capital Albana to meet with King Your Majesty, right? , I am also going to send the last batch of dancing fans to Albana, let’s go together."
"en!" Vivi nodded.
She was really worried about her father, but according to the information provided by Doto Uncle, the Pirate named Golden Lion didn't seem to have the intention of harming Alabasta, so she also let go of her heart.
However, Lynn didn't think so.
What kind of person is Golden Lion?
powerhouse? Certainly, he is a former Rocks Pirates member, Legendary contemporaneous with Roger and Whitebeard.
A hero? Perhaps, after all, he has attracted many great characters to join his Flying Pirates, forming a huge fleet together.
formidable person? Of course, don’t forget that Golden Lion has tolerated for twenty years, just to show his anger and hatred to the World Government.
But if you want to use one word to describe Golden Lion, Lynn will only describe him like this—
A careerist.
The purpose is clear, to achieve the purpose by fair means or foul, and use everything available;
At the same time, I appreciate the powerhouse, don’t care about it, have my own thoughts and bottom line, no one Can shake its will.
For such a man, if the transaction goes on smoothly, once there is a mistake in the transaction that causes the transaction to fail, then no one can guarantee what he will do!
After that, the entire group left the home of Doto Uncle and helped him load the last batch of Eruma's dancing powder into the car.
Next to the car is the Karoo Duck Legion who is already ready to go.
This land-travel duck is one of Alabasta's fastest running animals, and this batch of dancing fans will also be escorted by them.
Vivi skillfully jumped on the back of one of the Lu Xing Duck, rubbed the head of that duck, happy said with a smile: "I also have a Lu Xing Duck partner, but he I’m still young, I can’t buy goods. I should be in the palace now."
Dotto nodded with a smile, "Well, I remember that little fellow has a good appetite!"
After that, Dotto directed the bodyguards to connect the truck with the Duck, and arranged for Lynn and Iqalem to sit on the other two ducks.
There are only six Karoo Duck troops in Eruma, two of which are responsible for transporting dancing fans, and the remaining four are for Lynn, Vivi, Iqalem, and Doto himself. Ride.
As for the accompanying Royal Family bodyguards, because there is no transportation, Icarim arranged to stay in Eruma temporarily to help settle the people who just finished making dancing fans.
After all, they are already in the territory of Alabasta, and Iqalem and Lynn are there. Bodyguards are not worried about Vivi's safety.
Time is running out. The group of four people did not make more stops. They directly rode the landing duck and escorted two trucks full of dancing powder on the journey to Albasta, the capital of Alabasta.
……
The journey is always long and boring.
Fortunately, Doto Uncle prepared many Alabasta specialties for Lynn.
Lynn rode the landing duck forward, chewing on a piece of cheese in his mouth.
After eating the cheese, there is also jerky.
After eating the jerky, there are shortbread.
After eating the shortbread, it's gone.
The food in Duotuo Uncle is gone.
Fortunately, with the help of Lu Xingya, everyone can rush to Alabasta in the evening, otherwise Duotuo Uncle has now begun to call everyone to start survival in the desert.
Lynn ate the last piece of shortbread and felt a little thirsty, so he asked: "Doto uncle, is there any drink?"
Doto uncle nodded, put his kettle Give it to Lynn.
Lynn opened the lid and smelled it, and found something was wrong, and then asked: "Is this wine?"
Dotto uncle shook the head, "This is just ordinary yogurt that's all!"
hearing this, Lynn relaxed, raised his head and drank the yogurt in the jug.
When he finished drinking, he finally felt something was wrong.
At this time, Dutto Uncle added: "By the way, this kettle was used by me to hold wine before. It should retain some wine flavor, but there is nothing at worst, right? "
Lynn calmly nodded when he heard Duto Uncle's words, then suddenly turned over and jumped off the Lu Xing Duck.
Everyone couldn't help but was taken aback. Just when they wanted to stop moving forward to take a look at Lynn's situation, they heard Lynn's voice coming from behind them.
"Don’t wait for me, I’ll take a few steps to relax, and I’ll catch up with you right away!"
That afternoon--
Vivi, Doto, Yi Kalem, the three native Alabasta people, saw a human being who could catch up to the speed of a walking duck with his feet alone.
"How much is his physical fitness like a monster!" Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed in their hearts.
And Lynn was consuming the alcohol in the body with a mad rush, while meditating:
"My alcohol volume is probably really bad."
...
After the small episode, the entire group went for a few more hours.
Finally, before the sun completely set, they saw the magnificent city from a distance.
Alabasta, the capital-Albana.
This is a very prosperous city. It looks like this from the outside, and even more so after entering it.
This kind of prosperity is not only material, but also includes the living conditions of the residents.
Even though the entire Alabasta is under the threat of Golden Lion, the residents still maintain their normal lives in the gaps of making dancing fans.
The only difference may be that the king sent a lot of king's army to station everywhere, monitoring the Flying Pirates, and trying his best to protect the safety of the people.
After Dotto sent the three to Albana, he went to the warehouse to hand over the dancing fans.
And Lynn, led by Wei Wei and Icarim, directly entered the palace of Alabasta.
Different from the extravagant buildings of Sabaody Archipelago, the palace of Alabasta has a historically heavy feeling.
The buildings here are not gorgeous, or even a little shabby, but they do not affect their sense of weight.
In front of the palace palace.
Lynn stroked one of the pillars.
Icarim, who had just reported to the king, walked over. Seeing this, he said to the side: "Mr. Lynn, that is the history of Alabasta."
"Very Great history."
"Thank you."
Icarim bowed slightly and reached out to Lynn and said, "Please follow me, I will take you to meet the king Your Majesty, he heard about your helping Vivi Princess, must thank you personally."
"The king is your kind," Lynn smiled and replied: "Does he have supper?"
Icarim was hearing this for a moment.
No, you have eaten the three-day ration on the road, do you still want to eat supper?
But then again, after all, it is the great benefactor who brought Vivi Princess home. This requirement is not too much, so Icarem nodded and said: "I'm going to make preparations."
"Thank you."
Lynn nodded, then stepped into the palace in front of him.
This is a very gorgeous and formal palace. Lynn looked down the red carpet on the ground, and the first thing he saw was Vivi standing next to the seat.
And sitting beside Vivi is her father, the 12th king of Alabasta, Nefertari Cobra.
He is wearing an ordinary dark green cloth robe, a purple cloak, and a handful of neat beards.
At this time, Cobra is not the uncle he will be more than ten years later. He is now in his prime, with a very strong body and full of air in his voice.
He got up and said to Lynn: "Mr. Lynn Barek, on behalf of Vivi, thank you for your help!"
Lynn looked at the serious king in front of him, with only one thought in his heart ——
Did this guy ever try to take Luffy and the others to take a peek at the female bathhouse next door in the future?
But Cobra's next words interrupted Lynn's thoughts.
"Mr. Lynn, please forgive me for the abruptness, but time is tight, I can only make a long story short."
Cobra said:
"At tomorrow afternoon In the transaction, I hope you can appear in the negotiation field as the guard of Alabasta side, and I will try my best to give you a satisfactory reward afterwards."
hearing this, Lynn was a little confused, but it was still nodded. "Go on, I’m listening."
Cobra continued:
"[Golden Lion] Shiki is undoubtedly a dangerous Great Pirate, we can’t completely hope for him Able to comply with the agreement of the transaction, but at least let him feel that our Alabasta side is comparable to theirs."
"So, at the trading location tomorrow afternoon, I will personally bring a group of people to Golden Lion is handed over, and those people must be powerhouses with sufficient strength, so as to ensure that Golden Lion will not act too rashly."
Lynn was nodded and asked: "The'powerhouse' you mentioned is all Who is there?"
"Besides you, there are three more."
Cobra replied: "The two of them are Lieutenant Commander of the Alabasta Kingdom Guard and Zoan Devil Fruit Ability. User, Falcon’s Bell and Jackal’s Jaka."
"As for the third place..."
"He is like you, after Alabasta was blocked, from the outside world The breakthrough wall entered the territory of Alabasta-just ten days ago."
At this time, one silhouette came slowly from the shadow of the palace.
He is wearing a black fur coat, with a cigar dangling from his mouth, and a golden hook on his left hand.
Cobra continues to be introduced: "He is Pirate, but unlike ordinary Pirate, he is a'legal' Pirate recognized by the World Government, so we can trust him to a certain extent."
"He will be with us at the handover meeting tomorrow afternoon."
Lynn stared at the man who appeared in front of him, his pupils shrank suddenly.
Cobra slowly said:
"The identity he was recognized by the World Government is called—"
"Oka Shichibukai."
