Chapter 85
Before lunch, clothes tailored for Lynn were delivered to his room.
Lynn moved a little after putting on that suit, and couldn't help but marvel at the wonderful craftsmanship of Alabasta tailor.
In order to make it easier to punch in battle, the top is designed as a simple sleeveless shirt, mixed with some desert-style trinkets and feathers as decoration.
The lower body is made of trousers, the material is very good, even if it is a large kick and running, it will not be torn.
Apart from this, the tailors also gave Lynn a special gown that can be worn on the body to resist the sand and the scorching sun in the desert.
Wearing the whole set of clothes on the body, while being generous and decent, it also takes into account the flexibility of the battle.
After changing the clothes, the attendants delivered lunch for ten people to Lynn's room according to Cobra's orders.
After lunch, Lynn got the news and came to the palace gate.
King Cobra and Lieutenant Commander Bell and Gaka from the two kingdom guards are already waiting there.
They also wore quite formal clothes, and the sharp blade at the waist proved that they were ready for everything.
Some time later, a gust of wind and sand came, and the sand finally slowly condensed the human form.
[Crocodile] Crocodile is here.
As a Logia Ability User, he doesn't need to consider his mobility in battle, so he still wears that black fur coat, but the clothes inside are changed to a more formal black suit.
"He he he he, everyone is here." Crocodile asked Cobra with a cigar in his mouth, "Then king, where is the place of the transaction?"
Cobra replied: "According to the results of our negotiations with Golden Lion, the place of the transaction is near the Mausoleum of the Kings in Alabasta, next to Albana, and you can walk there. The warehouse where dancing fans are stored is also there."
Crocodile lit a little soot from his cigar, and said softly with a smile: "The terrain there is open and it is very suitable for the battlefield of Golden Lion."
"Yes, but It’s more risky in ordinary indoor transactions. Golden Lion can easily use its power to destroy buildings and bury us alive.” Cobra pressed the long sword on his waist with one hand, slowly said: “So everyone, just like I said before, Please!"
Lynn looked around and asked with some doubts: "Are the only five of us in the trade?"
Cobra shook the head, "A part of the king’s army has been garrisoned. Near the warehouse, there are about 5,000 people who are responsible for Warden’s dancing fans. We are responsible for negotiating, and they will be responsible for maintaining the trading scene and moving the dancing fans."
Crocodile said with a smile: "Or you want to be a porter by yourself."
Lynn grinned Issho, "Your clothes are wrong, you should wear a green one."
Crocodile was taken aback, "What do you mean?"
"So when I plant you into the ground, you will be more like a tree."
"..."
Seeing that the two of them were about to start again, Cobra had no choice but to shook the head and turned the subject away: "The time is almost here, let's go."
Behind him, Bell exchanged glances with Gaka, and reminded Lynn and Crocodile: "Two, no matter what conflicts between you, please don't make a fuss about the trade fair because of this. After all, it is a deal related to the fate of Alabasta! "
hearing this, Lynn and Crocodile both froze for a while, and then laughed heartily at the same time.
"He he he he, you still don’t know who you are going to trade with?"
Crocodile let out a puff of smoke, "[Golden Lion] Shiki, that’s an old age The remaining old monster."
Lynn also looked up at the sky. Today's Alabasta is clear and there is no sign of rain.
Rainstorm may be the only weakness of Golden Lion, and no one can predict how terrifying the Golden Lion will break out without this weakness.
"hahahaha, it seems that some are busy this afternoon!" Lynn said with a big smile.
Hearing these words of the two, Bell and Gaka were puzzled.
Cobra patted the shoulders of the two Old Partners on the side, "Don't worry, they are not the kind of men who can mess things up, but you two, it is best to do some psychological preparation."
Bell and Gaka were more confused, but when they turned their heads to look at Cobra, they found that Cobra, Lynn, and Crocodile all exuded the same temperament.
They can't help but recall what Cobra said to them this morning.
After a while, the two Lieutenant Commanders of Alabasta’s Kingdom Guard, Zoan Devil Fruit Ability User, known as Alabasta Guardian God, finally discovered what the other three had in common.
Whether it is Bell or Gaka, there is a certain fluke in the heart. I hope Golden Lion can accept this loss-making transaction and leave Alabasta quietly.
However, for the three of Cobra, Lynn, and Crocodile, they have never entrusted their destiny to the great compassion of Golden Lion. They just want to do it themselves.
The only thing they can do is prepare for war!
Faced with the mighty enemy of Golden Lion this level, both Lynn and Crocodile must play a twelve-point spirit, so they will never waste their energy in useless places.
"Icarem, the defense of Albana is left to you, and at the same time order the kings of Alabasta to prepare for the battle."
Cobra turned to face The chief guard of the kingdom said, and then turned his gaze to Vivi aside, "Don't worry, you stay in Albana, I will come back soon."
"Father, and everyone, please be careful. "Vivi waved at the five people.
The crowd bid farewell in front of the palace gate, and a group of five people walked to the tomb of the kings near Albana.
……
The journey is not far, it only took about half an hour.
The tomb of the first king was built in a fairly open and quiet place, all around deserted, and no buildings.
The five thousand kings stood in line, each armed with weapons and stood in battle.
Behind them is the 900 tons of dancing fans used for trading this time.
Crocodile leaned down and grabbed a handful of sand on the ground, and said in a low voice, "he he he he, it's a nice place, it suits me."
"When choosing a trading location, I took this into consideration."
Cobra said: "Choose here, even if war starts, it will not affect the civilians. At the same time, I also let the king's army everywhere be prepared. A huge network of links has been formed. Once something goes wrong, they will rush to help the location of the incident as quickly as possible."
"He he he he, really deserves to be the king of Alabasta." Crocodile Smoking a cigar, said with emotion.
Cobra sighed, gently stroking his sword hilt, "When I was young, I also led a fleet to wipe out a lot of Pirate, but the years are not forgiving."
Lynn Looking around, the surrounding vision is very good.
Forget the time, it's almost time to trade, but still can't see half of the silhouette.
"Golden Lion said how would he come?" Lynn asked.
Cobra shook the head, saying that he didn't know it either.
At this moment, the ears of Lynn and Crocodile moved suddenly, as if they heard a certain sound.
"On top!"
The two spoke at the same time, and then looked up at the sky at the same time.
I saw a black dot appearing on the cloudless clear sky, and then the black dot got bigger and bigger, it turned out to be a huge boulder about tens of meters in diameter!
Bell could not help stared wide-eyed, cry out in surprise: "Is it a meteorite?"
"No, it's just an ordinary stone!"
Lynn's eyes Very good, so I have set my posture, ready to jump up and break the boulder.
But Crocodile suddenly pushed Lynn away, frowned: "If a stone of that size is broken, the scattered fragments will be difficult to deal with, let me go!"
Immediately afterwards, Crocodile was half kneeling, slapped his hands on the ground, and Suna Suna no Mi was activated.
Erosion Samsara!
The dry force penetrated into the place where the boulder fell, transforming the surrounding sand into a large sunken quicksand zone.
In this way, even if the boulder falls to the ground, its formidable power will be greatly weakened by the buffer of quicksand, without causing too much damage.
Just less than half a second after the formation of the quicksand, the boulder fell to the ground!
However, what is surprising is that no sound erupted from the falling point of the boulder, not even a sense of shock, only the dust raised by the falling wind pressure.
Lynn eyebrow raised, looking at Crocodile on the side, "You did it?"
"I want to!" Crocodile brows tightly knit, roared: "It's an exaggeration Smelly old ghost..."
Lynn looked again, but couldn't help her pupils shrinking.
I saw the "big boulder" with a diameter of several tens of meters, which turned out to be a small island!
After that, the soil that made up the island slowly deformed, and finally changed into a ladder.
Looking against the light, at the end of the stairs, there is a luxurious and elegant seat on which one silhouette is sitting.
The flying dust slowly fell. Accompanied by the sound of metal collision, the silhouette stood up and walked down the stairs step by step.
At the same time, there was an exaggerated laugh from the man.
"Jiehahahahahaha, it’s really a nice view!"
"hahahaha......cough cough! I choked again......cough cough!"
