Chapter 266
"What!?" Crocodile went to see Roger's execution back then. The news was shocking to him.
Marco's eyes were a little surprised. It was the first time he knew Ace's identity. Whitebeard never regarded Ace's identity as the same thing, so he didn't tell them.
However, it doesn't matter to him who he is. He only knows that Ace is his younger brother and his family.
It was Tu Shanrongrong's thoughtful expression on his face.
Everyone took a break and went to eat in the palace hall.
During the meal, Crocodile also approached Luffy and told him to compete with him. Luffy had lost his mind and excitedly agreed to compete with Crocodile.
After a competition, Luffy was beaten by Crocodile, who had restored his faith, to become the Tathagata Buddha with Haki.
"You are so amazing, I will definitely beat you next time!" Luffy said while eating meat at the table.
Crocodile looked at Luffy, who didn't hold any grudges at all, and inexplicably saw his own year in this fool, but he was not so weak and stupid back then.
The reason why he has fallen into this situation is not only because he lost to Whitebeard, but also because his partner of Life and Death Together was blackhanded by Marine. It is clear that he still had the identity of Shichibukai at that time.
The loss to Whitebeard made him feel unconfident in his own strength. The death of his partner made him grief, and the assassination of Marine made him desperate. Under the blow of 3rd-layer, Crocodile completely Distorted.
That was the last time he cried.
The death of the partner hit Crocodile, just like the death of Ace hit Luffy.
Unlike Wang Luffy, no one could save him at the time, and no one could bring him hope.
Since then, the fallen Crocodile has gone to the abyss.
"Captain, you won't abandon and betray your Pirate flag, will you?"
Shirahane, who was eating, looked towards Crocodile after hearing this.
He thought of the actions and words of the rebellious little Crocodile when he first met Roger.
"Since I hang the Pirate flag, I have entrusted my life to the sea."
"I will never betray my Pirate flag!"
Pirate flag is a symbol of partners and dreams for these aspiring Pirates.
"The Pirate flag is the soul of the Pirate Ship and also our symbol. I don't want to be a soulless person." Shirahane said while eating.
"Hoo" Crocodile swept around, "Captain, are we just these few crew members?"
"More than that, there are also some crew members who are relatively young and have not really grown up yet. Get up." Shirahane curiously asked: "Isn't your purpose Dark King? Why cause chaos in this country? It's not good for you, right."
Vivi sat next to Luffy and suddenly pricked his ears.
"without destruction there can be no construction!" Crocodile laid out the plan in its entirety, "I used the rebels to cleanse the Royal Family of this country, and then at a critical moment, I took the opportunity to stop the war, seize the country, and then Develop with the power of a country."
"Dark King needs to be built. If you want to build that kind of weapon, only the country can support it."
"With Dark King and As a country, I will gradually devour other countries around me and develop Alabasta with the resources and technology of other countries. One day I will develop a country that is stronger than the World Government."
Shirahane , Everyone: "..."
Cobra, this king who advocates peace and works for the people a bit lamented Crocodile's thoughts. If this Shichibukai's plan succeeds, maybe Alabasta will truly become one in the future of the very best power.
But the people of Alabasta may not be happier than they are now.
"Your idea is good, but when you have this idea, you have already given up on the way you really want to go."
……
After the meal, Shirahane and Cobra went to other places alone to communicate.
"Shirahane your excellency, what do you want to know from me? The whereabouts of the Dark King are in the historical text. I really can't figure out what else you want to know." Cobra is a wise man. The faint king looked at him in confusion.
"Have you been guarding the Dark King for many years?" Shirahane asked.
Cobra is clear, nodded, "We, Nefertari, were one of the 20 Royal families that founded the World Government 800 years ago. It was also the choice of our ancestors not to live in Holy Land. In order to protect the whereabouts of the Dark King."
Shirahane searched for news in his mind, trying to piece together a series of clues.
When Yim played, there were broken photos scattered on the ground. The people in those photos were the existence of Daimyo Dingding on the sea. Even the photos of Sea King Shirahoshi were inserted. Sword, only Vivi's picture was left.
Alabasta's Vivi and Cobra were also assassinated, which proves that the 20 Royal Family of the year were not united, at least not after taking the country.
What happened eight hundred years ago can probably be summed up as Arlong.
And the whereabouts of the Dark King left by Nefertari is used to overthrow the World Government's hole cards again. It can be guessed that their Royal Family was contradictory back then, or that Vivi's ancestors were to avoid the same Matter, so for the sake of later generations, we have left a weapon that can be used to check and balance.
All these are just Shirahane's guesses. The true truth has been too many years, and it has long been buried in history.
During the exchange with Cobra, Shirahane also learned that World Government not only owns Marine, but also has a strong army force, which also has Army Admiral.
"???"
Shirahane has not paid much attention to matters on the land, forgetting that One Piece World also has the existence of the Red Line continent. It is not normal to have an army. NS?
However, with his current level, it is not difficult to kill two Admiral. If an Admiral is able to shit Admiral, who would let him have a plug-in.
"You have been wondering about the historical texts for a long time, let's go with them."
Robin took off the white cowboy hat and put it on Shirahane's head, "Shirahane, our deputy captain will not Are you jealous?"
"Then put it on her." Shirahane put on Yang Luoqi a white cowboy hat, nodded, "It's quite suitable."
In Cobra Led by, the entire group entered an underground passage in the mausoleum.
Looking at the whereabouts of the Dark King who used to be a yearn for something even in dreams, Crocodile's eyes still showed excitement.
Robin, a simple archaeologist, translated all the above content and said with a little satisfaction: "This is the record of the whereabouts of the Dark King. The final island will have a complete Dark King, which is You said Raftel."
Shirahane froze for a moment. It seems that it takes four pieces of historical text to reach Raftel.
Cobra thought about it and took out a stone hidden deeper, and Robin translated a few more words on it.
Robin translated in a soft voice: "The enemy of God..."
"Clan D." Shirahane took it smoothly.
Robin looked towards him in shock, and asked anxiously: "Have you seen this? Some words on this are already fuzzy, I hope you can tell me that this thing is very Important."
"No..." Shirahane's eyes contemplated complicatedly for a few seconds, then opened the mouth and said: "The enemy of God, most powerful people know that they are a member of the D. No way for you. Ask King Cobra, he must also know."
Shirahane throws the pot to Cobra.
