Pirate Hero Advent - Chapter 228
c227 Infighting
center–
Everything has its center.
If we compare what happened in Dressrosa as a whole, then the battle between Lynn and Barrett on King’s Heights is undoubtedly the center of the incident.
But a thing cannot exist if it has only its “center”, and the rest is still an integral part of this event.
And if the battle between Lynn and Barrett is compared to a war on the surface, then what is happening in Dressrosa at this time is a battle in the dark.
…
boom! boom! boom! boom……
The earthquake centered on King’s Heights has been going on for a while. Although the magnitude of the vibration is not large and the destructive power is not strong, there are still signs of collapse in some houses.
The king’s army in Dressrosa was busy evacuating the residents in the high-risk area at this time, and they didn’t care about Crocodile and others who just passed by them.
“Huh, has it started yet?”
Crocodile lit a cigar for himself, took a puff of smoke, looked up towards the direction of King’s Heights, frowned slightly and said: “The movement made by that muscular bastard and fit bastard is too great. ”
“Hahahahaha, it’s Mr. Lynn after all!”
Aiden replied with a smile, and at the same time helped the old lady pack her luggage, and then sent her to the king’s army.
“Don’t worry about being a bad guy, we still have work to do next.”
Crocodile shook the soot and waved his hand to call the people around him over.
Aiden, Tiger, and Del stepped forward respectively, and Bucky also bit the bullet and leaned forward amidst the shouts of the prisoners and spies.
“Listen, that fit bastard—that’s Douglas Barrek. As far as I know, he’s been imprisoned in Advance City for many years, and there’s been no news of any Advance City prisoners escaping recently. This shows one thing.”
Crocodile said in a deep voice: “The fit bastard was probably released by the World Government on its own initiative, just to contain Lynn Barrett at the level of combat power.”
“According to the guts of the World Government, there will be no second one with that level of combat power, and they don’t have the ability to find another lunatic who will do anything to fight.”
“That’s why I guess that most of the next actions of the world government will depend on the cooperation of the CP organization, the secret intelligence agency directly under them, and the Don Quixote family.”
Crocodile pointed to the birdcage in the sky, “After all, only Doflamingo can use this thing, and his body must be inside the birdcage when using it.”
Aiden blinked his eyes when he heard the words, and said excitedly: “So we are going to kill him?”
“No, he will cut it last.” Crocodile said with a dark smile: “The birdcage can trap us, but it also traps them, doesn’t it?”
Afterwards, Crocodile continued: “Listen, people from the Don Quixote family, and even people from the CP organization, are now mostly scattered in Dressrosa, looking for an answer to Lynn Barek. Time to act.”
“And this is our opportunity.”
Crocodile scratched his neck with his thumb and sneered: “Spread out, find them, and do them, it’s that simple”
Del frowned and said, “Leaving aside the Don Quixote family, people from the CP organization are not easy to deal with.”
“Then spread out less.”
Crocodile said slowly: “Look for an opportunity, look for a single person, a lot of people go together, escape immediately if you can’t die in one hit, and come back when you find an opportunity, you who work for the world government still use our teaching? ”
Del smiled and looked directly at Crocodile.
The latter also returned his gaze without dodging.
After a few breaths, Del smiled, “We’ll just deal with the Don Quixote family. At most, we will help you recognize the people in the CP organization. We are only working for the World Government. Don’t forget that our purpose is actually to Take Doflamingo to blame, there is no need to help you directly deal with our colleagues.”
“Great, let’s get started then.”
Crocodile nodded.
…
After a while, everyone started to split up.
After Crocodile and the others left, the adjutant next to Del couldn’t help asking: “We want to listen to them?”
Del shook his head and corrected: “It’s not that we ‘want’ to listen to them, but we ‘have to’ listen to them.”
The adjutant was taken aback when he heard the words, puzzled.
“[Sand Crocodile] Crocodile, he really deserves to be the veteran Shichibukai.” Del couldn’t help sighing, “Every word he says is plotting against us, but we just can’t refuse.”
The adjutant was a little puzzled, “Why?”
“Because we still want to keep this job.” Del replied: “If we don’t want to work for the world government, we can just run away when the gold in the sky is lost, whether it’s being a pirate or going to the Revolutionary Army. Sending intelligence is a good way out, but we still want to work for the world government.”
“After all, the world government is the ruler of this sea.”
Del rubbed his chin and continued: “If we want to continue working for the World Government, we must find a ‘culprit’ to take our blame, at least we can’t let the first wave of anger from above vent on us, So we need more Don Quixote Flamingo heads.”
“That’s why we have to listen to [Sand Crocodile]?” The adjutant frowned and said dissatisfiedly, “Conspirator, the most troublesome thing.”
Del thought for a while and said with a smile: “No, this should be a conspiracy, much more troublesome than a conspiracy.”
Immediately, Del beckoned and directed a group of agents: “Okay, come a few people to follow [Sand Crocodile], and a few more people to follow the group of prisoners, and the rest follow me!”
“Yes!” The spies replied.
The adjutant was a little curious, “Are we really going to find someone from the Don Quixote family?”
“No, you’re wrong again.”
Del shook his head and said with a smile: “We just need to make sure that all the credit goes to us, that’s enough.”
…
Some time passed.
In the dark corners of Dressrosa, unknown battles took place.
Among them, most of them ended up with the sneak attacking party winning, but there were also a few unlucky people who met the CP elite who was proficient in the six styles and were defeated by the backhand.
A CP combatant stomps on a prisoner’s head, frowning.
Has their lurking in Dressrosa been exposed?
Who attacked them? What is the purpose? What’s the deal with Lynn Barek?
These questions were quickly answered after the prisoners were tortured.
It was [One Piece] Roger’s former crew member—[Joker] Bucky who ordered the attack on the members of the CP organization!
“The remnants of the Roger Pirates.”
The CP combatant’s frown deepened.
“Tsk, this is a little troublesome…”
…
In a deserted alley.
Torrebol, the cadre of the Don Quixote family who was seriously injured, is holding the newly awakened sugar, planning to return to the stronghold of the Don Quixote family.
“I said, I said, it’s great that you’re awake, Sugar!”
Torrebol laughed and said: “As long as we have your ability, we can turn defeat into victory, hahahahaha!”
Granu just nodded, her forehead that had been flicked by Lynn’s cigarette was still aching, she was in a trance, unable to speak or even move.
However, just as Torrebol breathed a sigh of relief and was about to leave with the sugar, a figure wrapped in gravel suddenly appeared behind them.
“Hehehehe, I found it~”
Torrebol didn’t even have to look back to know who it was.
“[Sand crocodile] Crocodile!” Torrebol turned his head angrily, and growled, “Do you really like working for Lynn Barek that much? I think your fangs have been worn down! ”
Having said that, Crocodile raised his eyebrows suddenly.
“Oh yes, you reminded me—”
Immediately, his right hand turned into a sharp gravel scimitar, and the smile on his face grew stronger.
Crocodile walked towards the seriously injured Torrebol, and whispered:
“I almost forgot, in fact, I was very cruel…”
