Chapter 39: The Beginning of the War
The tall and thin merchant lay on the ground, with a frightened expression on his face, as if he had seen something terrible, but at this time he could not tell any more. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
As a witness, Sido stared blankly at the black-cloaked man in the distance, not knowing whether he was afraid or not, unable to say a word, even the slaves in the cage were silent, they could not forget to take the golden hook and the smell of dust.
"Gram, Klocodahl......"
It wasn't until the cloaked man was no longer visible that Sido shuddered to say a name, but immediately covered his mouth with his hand, lest the man known as Crocokdal would turn back.
Klockdahl, although the result of entering the New World is unknown, but in the first half of the Great Voyage, everyone knows about it, the famous 'Sand Crocodile', the owner of the natural fruit Sand Rustle Fruit, although now for some reason there is an extra scar on his face, and there is also a missing left hand, but the frightening face on the bounty order is still impressive.
Klockdahl was in a good mood at this time, and since the end of that battle, he had never been happier than tonight, of course, not only because he had saved a slave, but because things had been going relatively well lately, and he had found exciting news today.
After returning from the New World, Klockdahl has been disappearing, not only because of the loser, but also because he heard a news by chance in the New World, that is, there may be an ancient weapon in Alabastan - the news of Hades, he was not very interested in this news at the time, but after experiencing that defeat, he is now desperate to gain power, and Hades is obviously the power he wants the most, so after returning he quietly sneaked to Alabastan and kept a low profile, Inquire about the news of Hades.
There is news about Hades that is heavyweight and extremely confidential, and Klokdal also spent a lot of time, and it is not until today that there is definite news, that is, Alabastan does have a historical text, which records Hades. And this historical text has always been in the hands of the royal family of Alabastan, and only the emperors of the past have held the location.
As a person with natural ability, spending time may be able to destroy a country, but it is bound to attract attention, besides, Alabastan is still a member of the world's government, no more, as long as a city is destroyed, within a few days, the generals of the navy and the government army will come to the door, as a person with a city, Klockdahl will not be impulsive again, just one impulse caused the annihilation of the group, and lost a hand, now he needs to plan, to design a huge plan to realize his ambitions, Like Doflamingo, he wants to steal the country!
It's just that Alabastan is not like Dressrosa, and the current Klocodale does not have the capital of Doflamingo, so it is a long process that requires a lot of manpower and patience. The crocodile is a creature that is good at ambushing, and it will be very patient to lurk there, waiting for the prey to approach and deliver a fatal blow, and Klockdahl, known as the 'Sand Crocodile', patience is obviously not a big problem.
There is also a good start in terms of manpower, after understanding that the young man in front of him is called Daz is a person who has eaten the ability to chop fruits, and after training, he will definitely be a good subordinate in the future.
Crocodall couldn't help but chuckle, thinking back to what he had done recently, after his planning, it was estimated that after tomorrow, the cornucopia of Rodelste would change hands.

Rumble! Rumble!
"Ugh!"
Yukir, who was enjoying breakfast, was choked by the sudden sound of artillery fire, and hurriedly picked up the wine bottle on the table.
"Hello Yukir-sama!!"
As soon as the food in his throat was washed down, a pirate ran in in a panic and said in a panic.
"Bastard! Whoever is bad, speak well! β
Yukir took the bottle in his hand and opened it on the pirate's head.
"Yes, yes." The pirates covered their bleeding wounds and said in fear: "The Nine Snake Pirates, she, they have called. β
"What? Why did this group of girls call? Yukir was shocked, stood up and walked back and forth, he has been very low-key lately, there are basically no more of his ships at sea, just to not provoke this group of women, "Is it really eyeing my territory?" β
"No matter, let's go to the battle first!"
Yukir slapped the table one last time and rushed out angrily, no matter how powerful those women are, but this is their base camp, I don't believe that those women can really knock this place down?
ββββββββββ the other sideββββββββββββ
"Report to Captain Diar, we seem to be lost......"
A sailor said to Di Lu with some embarrassment.
"Lost? How can we get lost? "It's strange that a navy sailing in this sea can get lost?
"Well, there's no eternal pointer on this pirate ship."
The sailor said cautiously.
Di Lu patted his head, and suddenly remembered that on the great voyage, because of the magnetic field, only the eternal pointer can determine the direction or route, and when he got on the ship, he didn't even check whether there was an eternal pointer, but wasn't there still Kalifa? Thinking of this, Dilu turned his head to look at Kalifa, but in exchange for a roll of his eyes.
"Do you think that if you have knowledge of navigation in the great voyage, you don't need a pointer?"
After such a long time together, even if Di Lu didn't speak, he knew what he wanted to do with a single look, and Carly gave him a roll of his eyes as a matter of course, and on the great voyage, the role of the navigator was more inclined to control and predict the weather and currents to avoid natural disasters, rather than to point out the route instead of the eternal pointer.
"What then?"
The first time I went to sea, I made such a big joke, but on the sea, even if I ate the fruit of the direction, Di Lu couldn't tell the east and west, north and south, the sun? It's not very reliable in this world.
"Whatever it takes." Kalifa was very calm, "Although I can't be sure of the direction, I can ensure that the ship will go in a straight line, as long as I find land with people, can't I buy a pointer?" β
"Well, yes."
Di Lu nodded, there was no shame in being despised by a teenage girl at all, even if his soul of more than twenty years had adapted to the body of a twelve-year-old now.
"But did you hear any cannons?"
Di Lu listened attentively, and there was a faint sound of cannon in the distance.
"Huh? It seems to be eh, it should be, it should be over there. β
Baby5, who is very sensitive to all kinds of weapons, obviously couldn't get it wrong, and after listening carefully for a while, he pointed in a certain direction.
"Haha, there is no endless road, go all out in that direction!"
There is a continuous sound of cannons on the sea, either pirates and pirates are fighting, or pirates and the navy are fighting, anyway, in either case, as long as you can find the eternal pointer, isn't it OK?
Under Dilu's orders, the sailors hoisted their sails and quickly moved in the direction of the cannon under the influence of the wind, but when they arrived at the location, it was not as expected.
I saw more than a dozen pirate ships surrounding the three huge pirate ships, and the two sides exchanged fierce fire, but obviously the large number of parties did not take advantage, and the shells they fired were intercepted one after another, but they themselves suffered a lot of losses.
"That's the symbol of the Nine Snake Pirates!"
Dilu suddenly saw the pirate flag fluttering on the huge pirate ship, and the nine snake tails around the skeleton were so maverick.
"Looks like that's Rodelste." Kalifa pointed to the Cheetah Pirates' logo, then to the continent behind the fierce battle.
"We're in the Pirates' Den......"
