"Stinky cook!"
Zoro and Sanji actually fought on the chariot.
"Bang bang!"
Nami punched Sanji and Zoro, who immediately became quiet.
After punching out of habit, Nami suddenly realized that Maude was there, so she hurriedly put away her fist.
But this obviously makes no sense.
The way he easily subdued Sanji and Zoro with one punch was already seen by Mod.
"Maude, I, I'm not usually like this."
Facing Maud's surprised look, Nami hesitantly explained.
Maud didn't know how to answer Nami's words.
Perona, who was floating aside, looked at Nami with a scrutinizing gaze, as if she had seen something, and she was slightly enlightened.
Taking advantage of Nami's silence, Luffy and the others jumped on the chariot, laughing and playing.
“So cool…”
Chopper lay lazily next to Zoro.
"Usopp, there are cannons here!"
"I saw it."
Luffy and Usopp were fumbling around on the tank.
"Can't you just calm down a little bit?"
Nami resisted the thought of punching again, looking exhausted.
Mod looked at the Straw Hat Pirates who were making a fuss on the chariot just after getting out of danger, and couldn't help but shook his head.
It still smells the same...
These young people don’t know what they are about to face.
Maude asked Perona to get in the car with her.
After everyone got in the car, Maude shaped part of the shadow into several lizards responsible for the trailer.
There is no way, Bailey's [knowledge] is limited. Although he can turn into a chariot, he does not have driving power.
However, the artillery mounted on the tank can be used normally.
Dragged by the shadow lizard, the chariot headed towards Yuba.
Two days later.
Maude and others came to the location of the oasis Yuba.
What came into view was a desolate ruin submerged by a sky full of yellow sand.
"how so… "
Seeing the former oasis turned into ruins, Weiwei covered her mouth with a look of disbelief.
Luffy and the others looked at Weiwei's reaction and were speechless.
Juba was an oasis and a rebel stronghold.
Now it has become a wasteland.
This shows that the information Weiwei possesses lags behind the actual situation.
The fact that the rebels are not here means that they have lost an opportunity to stop the rebels in time.
In a race against time, they wasted precious time.
If they hadn't been lucky enough to meet Maud, who greatly shortened the journey, otherwise, they might have wasted about three more days on the road.
Maude had already known about the current situation of Yuba, and did not pay attention to the situation on Weiwei's side. Instead, he used his intelligence to scan the entire ruins of Yuba like a scanner.
Ace noticed something and looked at Maud subconsciously.
Maud ignored Ace and concentrated on using his Sense of Wisdom.
Soon, two breaths appeared within the range of perception.
A breath is like a candle in the wind, a breath is like the sun and moon in the sky.
The red light in Maude's eyes faded, and she looked in the direction of the powerful aura in slight surprise.
The owner of this aura openly reveals his or her existence.
"Who is the one… "
Mod quietly went to the location where the powerful aura was.
He knew that the owner of the other residual candle breath was an old man who stayed in Juba.
As for the other breath, he knew nothing about it.
At least, the plot information of the original work cannot give him a clear answer.
But no matter who it is, Mod must confirm it immediately.
It might be someone from the Don Quixote family, or it might be an assassin sent by Crocodile.
Maude stayed away from the team, using his shadow to silently shuttle through the ruins.
In an instant, they had traveled several kilometers and arrived at a house that was half buried in the ground.
Unexpectedly, the owner of the powerful aura sensed by Maude was standing casually on the roof of the house.
This was a tall man, and the hem of the dark green hooded cloak draped over him was rustling in the hot wind.
Under the brim of the hat, a pair of eyes are so deep that they seem to be able to hide all secrets.
Maude looked at the man and narrowed her eyes slightly.
He suddenly had a feeling.
That is - in order to see him, the other party deliberately exposed his aura like the scorching sun.
… …
Alabasta, Rapeseed Flower City.
On the sea along the coast, there is a mast ship with the flag of the Don Quixote family moored.
In the communication room of the ship, a telegram from Dressrosa made the phone on the table buzz frequently.
The crew member in charge of communications had a doubt lingering in his mind before he was about to answer the call.
That is - why hasn't Master Pika come back yet
The same is along the coast.
A warship is anchored here.
Smoker and Dusky stepped off the warship and could see the Don Quixote family's ship in the distance.
"Colonel Smoker, that seems to be Don Quixote..."
Dasqi pushed the frame of the mirror and was about to remind him, but was directly interrupted by Smoker.
"Ignore it."
Smoker strode toward the city.
His main purpose in coming to Alabasta is to arrest Straw Hat Luffy.
Chapter 244 Goodbye Sunny
Maud had warned Smoker about the phone bug.
But Smoker still chose to defend his naval identity, left Rogue Town, and chased the Straw Hats to Alabasta.
It wouldn't be a surprise if Maud knew.
After all, this is what Smoker can do.
What really surprised him was the man in a green cloak who was standing on the ruins of the building—Long, the leader of the revolutionary army.
Or should I say... Monkey D. Dragon.
But, why did this man appear here
Maud narrowed her eyes slightly, feeling slightly confused.
Long lowered his head slightly, his calm eyes passing over Maude's face like a breeze, but he was the first to speak.
"Bacardi Mod."
Maude's full name was immediately revealed when he opened his mouth, and he seemed not to be surprised at all by Maude's arrival.
You must know that with the intelligence agency of the Revolutionary Army, a big pirate like Mod who holds the position of Shichibukai will definitely be monitored at all times.
However, Mod was clearly still in the Chambord Islands three days ago, but three days later he parachuted into the desert area of Alabasta, thousands of miles away.
This incredible phenomenon is not something that normal people can imagine.
But if you are someone who knows the power of meat ball fruit, then it is a different matter.
Of course, it is not ruled out that Xiong took the initiative to contact Long after swatting Mod away and informed Long of the possible threats to the Straw Hat Pirates.
"The leader of the revolutionary army would come alone to the ruins of a city that has been eroded by wind and sand for a long time. What is the reason for..."
Maud calmly looked at the dragon wearing a dark green cloak. Halfway through his words, an idea suddenly flashed in his head.
He thought of the civil war that Alabasta was facing now and the rebels who were ready to move, and he suddenly realized something.
Although there is no presence or sign of the revolutionary army in the Alabasta chapter of the original book.
But judging from the behavior of the Revolutionary Army, how could such a good opportunity be missed during the civil strife in Alabasta
"Oh, do you want to take action against Alabasta?"
Maud asked and answered herself, as if she had predicted the answer.
Only this possibility can explain the reason why dragons appear in Alabasta.
Under this premise, there should be other revolutionary armies coming to this country.
"Alabasta is a respectable country with a long history... it should not stop here."
Facing Maud's questioning gaze, Long looked at the surrounding buildings buried in the sand.
Although the answer was not what the question was asked, the implication was that he had no intention of taking action against Alabasta.
Maude heard the meaning of the words and looked at Long in surprise.
The dragon's right arm slowly poked out from the cloak.
With just a slight wave, black clouds suddenly gathered in the sky, and the sky darkened instantly. Then strong winds rose out of the sky, rolling up the yellow sand in the sky and covering it towards the location of the Straw Hats.
He can arouse the power of nature with just a wave of his hand. This is the strength of the leader of the revolutionary army...
When Maude saw this, her eyes changed slightly.
Luffy's exclamation could be vaguely heard from the yellow sand-covered sky.
But where he was, the sun was still high, and there was no sign of wind or sand sweeping over him.
It's like the place in front is raining continuously, but the place behind is sunny.
Maude looked at Long calmly, but she didn't know what Long's intention was.
But as the aura gradually surfaced in the distance, Maud instantly understood the motive behind the tornado's wind and sand, which isolated the Straw Hats to one side.
Maude looked in the direction of the auras and saw figures wearing sun-shading cloaks walking out from behind the dunes and heading towards the ruins.
At a rough count, there were about thirty people.
The leader is a woman. Unlike the others who are well-dressed, this woman only wears a red long-sleeved vest and no other close-fitting clothing.
As a result, more than half of the woman's breasts and her flat belly are exposed to the air, which is eye-catching.
This unique style of dressing allowed Mod to immediately recognize the identity of the other party - Bello Betty, the four commanders of the Revolutionary Army and a user of the superhuman inspiration fruit ability.
Since even Betty is here, it means...
