"What's the name of this trick, Sandstorm Funeral?~ It seems to be a little too pretending......" chuckling, Crockdahl let go of his hand and put back the blood-stained yellow sand. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Having lost their shackles of sand, the trapped sailors fell back to the deck, covered in blood and disheveled. After landing, the sailors still seemed to be in a nightmare, convulsing constantly.

"Don't worry, they're not dead yet~" Crockdahl looked at Smoker playfully, stretched out his index finger and shook it gently, and said with a smile, "This is just a punishment for you for not respecting a Seven Martial Sea~"

"You have to know how to be grateful, little navy~"

The miserable appearance of his subordinates made Smoke, who had always loved his subordinates, angry, his body trembling with anger, and his face was hideous with anger.

"Crockdahl...... I swear today in the name of justice! I will catch you! I will punish you! I will put you in the endless abyss!" Smoker turned into smoke except for his head, "Repent of your sins!"

"Haha...... Justice?Wait until you catch me, let's talk about justice, little navy......! They are not qualified to talk about justice!"

Sure enough, it is the so-called righteous side, and the sanction that comes to mind is only an arrest? It is really a bit naïve!

"White Fist!"

Another cloud of smoke rose up, and Smoker's angry blow was still easily blocked by Crokdal's sand, and it didn't hurt Crocodahl in the slightest.

"Is this the power that your justice has given you? It's so weak, I can't be interested at all...... Ha~" Crockdahl yawned boredly, and at the same time glanced at Smoker lightly.

"Hmph! White Lock!" Smoker snorted, turning his head into smoke, a cloud of white smoke wrapping around Crockdahl at great speed. Clokdal, defended with sand, was completely encased inside.

However, then, the smoke of chains was violently shaken open and dispersed by the sand that Crokdal used to defend himself. Smoker's attack was once again in vain.

Is the Brigadier General's strength? It seems, that's what it is......

As if feeling that the battle was too boring, Crockdahl actually leisurely took out a cigar and smoked it, and the cigar smoke in his mouth sparked a little spark, like contempt, provocation, and contempt.

It's a great mockery to swallow the clouds in front of someone who can manipulate the smoke.

Sure enough, Crockdahl's behavior once again stimulated Smoker's already throbbing cranial nerves.

"Smoking in front of me is looking for death!"

With a roar, Smoker rushed up, and at the same time, under the stimulation of anger, he did not completely lose his cool. Under the control of the Devil Fruit's ability, the cigar in Crockdahl's mouth burned at an unprecedented speed, and the billowing white smoke gushed out, writhing and intertwining in the air as if it had life, and stabbed Crockdahl's throat in the opposite direction.

"Damn ......" Crockdahl hurriedly dodged Smoker's sneak attack as he spat out the cigarette butt that burned less than a knuckle in his mouth. However, Smoker's attack was not so simple, and he saw the cigar flying in the air suddenly burst, and the smoke that flew out instantly enveloped Crockdahl, who had no time to defend himself.

"Ahem ......" wrapped in smoke would not have hurt Crockdahl, but even if he was an old smoking gun, he still couldn't stand the smell of so much smoke, especially after being wrapped in smoke, Crockdahl used his ability to defend in time, but the smoke could always come in through the gaps in the sand, approaching Crockdahl's body.

"Damn...... It's all a tear gas!" With a scolding, Crockdahl controlled the defensive sand and stabbed out many spikes, but he dispersed the smoke and reunited again, still unable to solve the annoying white smoke. I looked at it again, but I don't know when, Smoker himself turned into smoke, mixed with the smoke that enveloped him.

No wonder I can't break the smoke anymore......

There was a dark sigh of gloom, and Krokdal also turned into a cloud of sand and poured towards the smoke. I saw a puff of smoke and a puff of sand constantly intertwining and colliding. The sand constantly scatters the smoke, but the smoke always reunites. Both of them are natural powerhouses, and when both of them are turned into elementals, no one can hurt anyone.

The battle between the natural ability, if the difference in strength is not too large, will generally always be reduced to a war of attrition, and it will not really be lost until one side runs out of physical strength. Just like the earth-shattering battle between Qingzhi and Akainu, it took 10 days and 10 nights to decide the winner. Of course, none of this is something that has happened in this worldline.

"I almost choked on the cigarette I smoked, that's the greatest irony of a smoker!" Crockdahl said, as he violently shook the white smoke around him, and pulled away, converging on the other side of the deck.

Since Smoker will not be able to defeat him for a while, and if he calculates the time, the intention of stopping the other party has been achieved, and there is not much point in continuing to fight, and Crockdahl is too lazy to dwell on it anymore.

With a thought, Crockdahl waved his hand and kicked up a cloud of sand, which instantly shrouded the entire ship in the yellow sand, and at the same time, with the force under his feet, he flew up and headed towards a lifeboat that had not yet arrived and put down. The sand cut the cable, and the dinghy fell into the sea, splashing with waves.

"Hahaha! Old chimney! See you next time!" said Crockdahl laughing and landed on the dinghy, playing with Smoker, and his heart was very happy. And this tentative battle also allowed him to have a more accurate positioning of his power level. The cultivation after crossing over was really not in vain, and now he seems to have touched a trace of the threshold of advancement.

"Damn!" Smoker was furious, and slammed his white fist into the sea, but he could only stir up a wave to see Crockdahl off.

Having just been blinded by the yellow sand, Smoker thought that Crockdahl would take the opportunity to sneak attack, but after hesitating for a while, he couldn't catch up. By the time the dust was swept away, Crockdahl's figure had disappeared into the distance.

"Boom!" the white fist fell into the water, and the smoke seemed to be disembodied, but full of power. Under the punch, the huge waves flew up, and the sea water set off a column of water more than ten meters high.

"The next time I see you, I won't let you go!"

The water column fell, and the waves did not stop, just like Smoker's anger now.

***********************************************************************

Next to the fish-like hull of the sea restaurant, Barati, a dilapidated warship was docked, the same one Smoker had been flying in when he arrived.

Because of his battle with Crockdahl, the warship became dilapidated, and the sailors on board were greatly reduced due to serious injuries, and it was already the limit for Smoker to barely drive the ship to the sea restaurant alone.

The Sea Restaurant, scarred after a series of battles, was not much better than Smoker's warship, and now floated on the surface of the sea, and could be seen to be clearly tilted.

The members of the Creek Pirates, who escaped under Hawkeye's knife, were tied up and thrown in the restaurant, looking still a little frightened. They were guarded by Finbudi's sailors, and Fenbudi's lieutenant was negotiating something with Dusty with the cook of the restaurant on the sea.

"What's going on?" Smoker was obviously in a bad mood, and when he was in a bad mood, he had no patience, and directly turned into smoke and floated to the side of the few people who were talking, and asked with a dark face.

"Your Excellency!" Although the adjutant was not a direct subordinate of Smoker, he still saluted rigorously with the distinctness of his superiors and subordinates.

"Say, what's going on. Smoker swayed.

"Your Excellency, that's right. There was a pirate lurking among the chefs of the sea restaurant, and after being discovered by Lord Fembedi, he injured Lord Fembdi, and tried to escape with his accomplices of the Straw Hat Pirates, and when our department was captured, it was just in time for the Creek Pirates to attack, and under the battle, our department defeated the Creek Pirates in one fell swoop, but the Straw Hats took the opportunity to escape when our department and the Creek Pirates were fighting, and then ......" The adjutant reported solemnly, and said and gave the chef a look, and the chef smiled back, and the two tacitly agreed.

"All of the above actions, because the commander Finbudi was injured and unconscious, so I, the adjutant Karl, will take the command, and the report is over!" the adjutant said and saluted.

"I see, take these pirates away and pack them back to Rogue Town. Smoker didn't care about the adjutant's seemingly meritorious words, and ordered absentmindedly, "Also, you can discuss the issue of compensation with them." ”

"Yes!" the adjutant saluted, and watched Smoker turn away, his face uncontrollable with a sense of loss.

Back on the warship, Smoker held on to the side of the ship with a very ugly face.

"The lurking pirates, do you mean Crocodahl, and is everything he does to create an opportunity for the Straw Hats and his gang to escape......

"Or maybe Crockdahl had another purpose, the Straw Hats were just trying to divert the attention of the Navy...... No, with his pride, it shouldn't be so ......."

"The Straw Hats...... Monchi D. Luffy......" Smoker frowned, his face cloudy, "It's just a newcomer to the East China Sea, what is it that makes Crockdahl pay attention?"

"Although they are newcomers, since the Straw Hats are entangled with Crockdahl, it seems that they have to pay attention to it......"

"It's really troublesome, but as long as I get stuck in Rogue Town, you don't want to escape my palms......" Clenching his fists, Smoker was glad for his post for the first time, "Pass my order to repair the hull as quickly as possible! Dusty, get your motorcycle ready! I'm going to rush back to Rogue Town first!"

"We still have a lot of money to settle yet!
