One Piece’S Scarlet Swordsman

Gulant ignored the strange glances of passers-by, drinking while walking along the way.

After ten minutes, I finally arrived at the destination.

The base camp of Crocodile, the largest casino in Alabasta, the rain feast.

The casino is surrounded by a circle of lake water, with a stone bridge built on the lake, and there are facilities such as a fountain outside.

"In the case of water shortages across the country, so much water resources are still used for decoration."

Gurant looked at the scene before him, smiled, and walked towards the casino gate.

Inside the castle underground like an aquarium, Crocodile sits on a leather chair, with his right leg cocked and his left leg up, with a smile on his face.

Directly across from him, stood a black-haired girl in a white fur coat.

The black-haired girl handed over a leather chair and said with a smile on her face.

"I heard that you once again became a people's hero in Na Rohara."

"Everyone calls you... the king of the desert."

"Huh..." Crocodile snorted disdainfully.

"It's all stupid people."

"With three years of layout, this effect has been achieved, which is already remarkable." Nico Robin smiled.

"The reputation of Crocodile among the people is already comparable to that of the king."

Fooling around with the files on the desk, Crocodile looked at Nico Robin and asked.

"So, what's the matter with you coming to me?"

Nico Robin smiled, propped his chin with one hand, and his tone was flat.

"There is one thing to report to you, which is very important."

Crocodile bit the cigar indifferently, and Nico Robin continued.

"The little princess of Alabasta, Nafirutali Vivi ran away from home."

Crocodile frowned, took a deep cigar, and said solemnly.

"Can you find her trace?"

"No." Nico Robin smiled and shook his head.

"Millions of elders are investigating, and there is no such information yet."

"The palace of Alabasta has been messed up."

Crocodile grabbed the photo that was placed on the table. The photo was the princess of Alabasta, with a sinister smile on her face with horizontal scars.

"Hum hum……"

"Drought, food disaster, rebellion, the princess is missing..."

"This country, the more chaotic the better, and soon, it will be mine."

In the casino, Gurant wandered around leisurely.

A waiter passed in front of him, and Gurant reached out and grabbed the other's shoulder, and asked with a chuckle.

"The owner of this casino is Crocodile, right?"

The waiter was about to struggle, and Gurant squeezed his hand hard, and there was a sound of dislocation of bones from his shoulder.

"Yes, yes, this guest."

Gurant asked again with a frown.

"Is the store manager a woman, young, with long black hair."

"Yes, yes." Kaidō, the waiter gritted his teeth, and pressed his hand with one hand, grinning in pain.

"Then please, inform your store manager."

Gurant let go of his shoulder, patted it, and smiled.

"Please inform your store manager, just say that an acquaintance came to visit her specially."

The waiter looked embarrassed, but when he looked up and saw Gurant's cold eyes, he was shocked and took out the walkie-talkie.

"By... the manager."

An old man's voice came from the walkie-talkie, and he scolded impatiently.

"Don't hesitate to talk, just say anything!"

The waiter subconsciously stood up straight and replied.

"Hi!"

"Well, a customer asked to see the store manager, saying he was an acquaintance."

"Ha ~ acquaintance?" The old man in the walkie-talkie was obviously shocked, then said.

"Tell him to wait, I'll go and inform."

The walkie-talkie was quiet, the waiter pointed to the walkie-talkie and explained to Gurant with a smirk.

"Uh hehe, please wait a moment, guest, our manager has already gone to inform the store manager."

Inside the casino, an old man with a flamboyant hairstyle put down the intercom and walked towards the back passage of the casino.

After a while, the manager's voice came from the waiter's walkie-talkie.

"Invite this guest to the VIP room, this is what the store manager meant."

The waiter put down the walkie-talkie and bowed to Gurant.

"This guest, please come with me, and I will take you to the VIP room."

Gu Lan nodded, followed behind the waiter, and walked towards a gate with VIP written on it.

"welcome."

At the VIP passage entrance, there were three beautiful long-haired beauties in dresses and beautiful faces on both sides.

"Up to this point, I can't go in." The waiter bowed to Grant again.

The door of the VIP channel opened, and Gurant stepped into it alone. He was not afraid of the other party's tricks. In this world, there is basically no place to pay attention to him.

"Da da……"

At the end of the corridor leading to the VIP room, there is a sign that indicates the directions of VIP and Pirates.

Gurant smiled, turned left and walked in the direction of VIP, and stopped after a turn.

There is a dead end ahead.

"Are there traps on both sides?"

The corner of Gurant's mouth curled, and his mood was a bit subtle.

With a "click" under his feet, the floor cracked in the middle, and Gurant fell into the darkness.

"Snapped……"

The time of the fall was very short, but a few seconds, Gurant stood firmly on the ground with both feet.

He glanced left and right, and found himself in a huge cage.

The cage was placed in a spacious and bright hall. Looking towards the center of the hall, a man and a woman were sitting in the middle of the hall.

"Is that you?"

Crocodile grinned, lit a cigar in his mouth, and took a deep breath.

"I actually said that I was [Son of the Devil] Nico Robin's acquaintance."

"Son of the devil?" Gurant squeezed the brim of his hat and chuckled softly.

"Good title, I like it very much."

Hearing this, Nico Robin, standing behind Crocodile, took a step forward, frowning his slender eyebrows.

"I don't remember any acquaintances I have, besides..."

"I'm afraid you don't know what the title [Son of the Devil] represents."

The corner of Gurant's mouth was raised slightly, his slender eyes drooped, and he looked directly at Nico Robin.

"Because I am very clear, I came to you."

Gurant slowly took off his black top hat, revealing his sharp eyes like a famous sword.

"Nico Robin."

When Gurant completely took off his hat and exposed his eyes, Nico Robin's pupils shrank and his whole body trembled involuntarily.

In my mind, like a slide show, a fragment of the night sixteen years ago flashed.

"It's you……"

"The man sixteen years ago."

Crocodile frowned, and things became a little uncomfortable.

"Nico Robin, who is he?"

Crocodile asked in a deep voice, but Nico Robin didn't answer. He just took a deep breath and said calmly.

"You are looking for me, what's the matter?"

Gurant smiled slightly, took a step forward, and stretched out his right hand to Nico Robin through the huge cage. A low and magnetic voice echoed in the hall.

"Come to me, Nico Robin."
