Chapter 216： target, alabasta

the next day.

Sales of the World Economic News have exploded again.

And this time, Toutiao was still occupied by the Eighteen Branches.

[The 18th branch of the East China Sea welcomes the second princess]

Originally, the royal family and aristocrats of those kingdoms have always been disdainful of the navy, and it is rare for a royal family or aristocrat to join the navy.

Therefore, when Violet joined the East China Sea Navy, it already caused a small sensation.

But after all, King Liku has been cold for a long time, so Violet has almost no popularity in the world. Although it caused some sensation in a small area, it is nothing more than that.

But this time is different.

Princess Weiwei's popularity is not low, especially when she went to the World Conference with her father when she was a child, there were many reports and photos about Weiwei at that time.

In the past 100 years, there have been two such cases. The matter of joining the navy of the royal family members of the joining countries was all concentrated in Li Yan's Eighteen Branches of the East China Sea.

How can this not be a sensation.

The person who was most dumbfounded by this incident was Vivi's father, Neferutari Cobra.

How did his daughter run out and become a navy?

The point is, it's okay to be in the navy, but what the **** is going to the East China Sea if you don't go to the headquarters?

And at the same time.

Alabasta, the biggest bar in the rain, Rain Feast.

"Things are starting to get interesting. Let me see if this unusual winner can be my last resort!"

In an office, the woman sat in an extremely seductive posture, looking at the information in her hand, the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

------

Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.

Office of the Marshal.

"Pfft hahaha, Li Yan is really capable, this is the second princess under his command!"

"You guy, can't you see that this guy Li Yan has other purposes?"

"Warring States, you said that you just think too much. Even if Li Yan has other goals, it is definitely not a bad thing. Don't you understand it in the past year?"

Glancing at Sengoku, Garp said indifferently.

Don't look at Garp's rough surface, it seems that he does things without thinking, but in fact, Garp is the one who understands the most in the heart of this department.

"Well, that seems to be the case."

"It's just that the situation in Alabasta is not very good now."

"According to our information, except for the capital of Alabasta, there has been no rain for many years in the rest of Alabasta. Most of the people believe that it is the king Cobra who used dancing fans, so that in recent years The public grievances grew, and even the rebels showed up."

"And now, the forces of the rebels are getting bigger and bigger, and they already have the ability to fight against the Kingdom's army. If this continues, this former superpower will inevitably have a civil war!"

"At this time, Li Yan's idea of ​​accepting other people's princesses is probably not simple!"

Thinking about the information he had seen over the years, Sengoku carefully analyzed it.

However, Garp on the side seemed to have no interest in it at all, and kept throwing senbei into his mouth.

"Wait, Garp, this pack of senbei is..."

"Oh, you said this, I just found it under the sofa!"

"Kapp, you bastard, I've been hiding there, why can you still find it?"

"Che, there are only a few places for you to hide and hide, I don't have to look for it deliberately!"

Hearing this, the Warring States brows knitted together, but there is nothing to do with his old friend.

"I said Warring States, you seem to have forgotten something!"

But just when Sengoku was speechless, Garp suddenly spoke up.

"what's up?"

"Sand Crocodile went to Alabasta, isn't it, and Alabasta seems to have had problems gradually since then, right?"

"Kapp, you mean..."

"I didn't say anything, just like that, puff hahaha!"

Standing up, while continuing to put senbei in his mouth, Garp strode out of Sengoku's office.

However, even though Garp left, Sengoku frowned even more.

Alabasta...

Crocodile...

If Crocodile did all this, what was his purpose, was he stealing the country like Doflamingo?

However, Crocodile's character should not want to go to King of a Kingdom.

So, if not the throne, what is it about Alabasta that attracts Crocodile?

"Come on!"

"marshal!"

"Go, let Staff Officer He come to me!"

"Yes, Marshal!"

------

a few days later.

Eighteen branches of the East China Sea, military ports.

The reason why Li Yan didn't let Weiwei set off immediately after he officially joined the navy was waiting for this day.

Today is the day when two destroyers and five frigates were launched. Like Goa Kingdom, these five warships are also ironclads.

Therefore, after handing over the original five warships of the East Sea Fleet to Akainu and Sengoku, the East Sea Fleet also had enough warships and reconstituted the fleet.

A battleship, two destroyers, five frigates, and all ironclads built with a mix of steam and Coke.

When the sailors were boarding the ship in an orderly manner, Wei Wei was a little dumbfounded standing in the naval port.

"Are these warships?"

After all, ironclad ships are really invisible in other places except the East China Sea these days.

Even Tezzolo's Grand Desolo, although a lot of steel is used, its main body is still wood.

"Of course it's a warship, this is an ironclad ship unique to my East China Sea Navy!"

"Iron armored ship... It's obviously made of steel, but why can it float on the sea?"

Weiwei didn't understand at all, what exactly was the principle.

But well...

You don't even need to understand.

"Vivi, this time I declared to the outside world that you, as the fleet commander, went to Alabasta to visit King Cobra. I didn't accompany me."

"So, I won't show up until I find out the real evidence of Crocodile!"

"But you don't have to worry, it's just a Crocodile. Even if I don't show up, but Luffy and the others are there, he will never hurt you and King Cobra!"

Patting Wei Wei on the shoulder, Li Yan said It's just a Crocodile, and Luffy is enough to take care of him.

You know, the current Luffy is stronger than two years after the original plot started.

And yourself...

It's enough to act in the dark.

Go to Robin to chat, and then see if you can find the Pluto, known as one of the three ancient weapons.

Although even if it is found, it is impossible to get Pluto out now.

But at least, knowing the location where Hades is buried, when you need it in the future, you can get it out at any time as your own combat power, right?

After all, according to legend, this is the existence of a cannon that can destroy an island...

Even before Li Yan crossed, there was no such a powerful cannon, and even that destructive ultimate weapon might not be able to do this.

Therefore, Li Yan is still very interested in Pluto.
