Chapter 325: First Sight of Sabo
In the face of these desert bandits, Ian took the initiative to attack, he pulled out a thousand Sakura and rushed forward, instantly cutting down seven or eight bandits.
Ian was too quick to draw a knife, these desert bandits have been robbing in the desert for many years, and naturally have a unique vision, and immediately realized that they had encountered hard stubble, so they immediately fled on camels, and even the corpses of their companions were gone.
Seeing them fleeing, Ian naturally didn't chase them, he put away his knife, crouched down, and began to rummage through the robbers who had been cut down by himself.
Money or something, it's all secondary, mainly food and drinking water, on these seven or eight robbers, Ian found a lot of water bags, about three of them on each person, Ian took these water bags and estimated the weight, and found that the camp of these desert robbers may not be very far, according to the amount of water each person carries, it is a maximum distance of dozens of miles from here.
If they were far away, these robbers would not have been able to carry such a little water.
However, the amount of water for seven or eight people together was enough for Ian, so Ian was satisfied.
As Ian had just collected the water bag and placed it in BB's hump bag, he suddenly snapped around, turned around, pressed his hand on the hilt, and asked, "Who!" ”
The desert bandits had dispersed, and it was said that there should be no one near Ian, but because Ian had turned on the telekinesis field during the battle just now, he suddenly sensed that someone was approaching him at this time, so he immediately became alert.
In the night, a figure slowly walked towards Ian, although the moonlight shone dimly on the desert, but he could not see the other person's appearance clearly, because his face, like Ian, was wrapped in a turban.
"The robbers robbed the caravan, and the pirates robbed the robbers again!" As the figure approached, he whispered, "It's quite interesting." ”
Ian ignored the quip in his words and frowned, "Who are you?" ”
As he spoke, the figure had already walked up to Ian, and when he saw Ian's hand on the hilt of the knife, he waved his hand at him and said, "Don't be nervous, Mr. Ian! I'm here to see you! ”
"Huh!?" When Ian heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
It was the first time he had heard someone call him "sir......
After the figure finished speaking, he began to untie his turban, and as he untied it, a face that surprised Ian was revealed.
It was a man with short blond wavy hair, but on the left side of his face, there was a large burn mark.
"Sa...... Sabo!? Ian couldn't help but scream.
That's right, the person who appeared in front of him, Ian definitely recognized him, because he was Sabo! Ace and Luffy's brother!
Ian only felt a burst of thunder rolling, he didn't expect that he would meet Sabo so abruptly at such a time and in such an environment, so he was directly stunned.
Hearing Ian call out his name, Sapo was also stunned for a moment, but then he smiled and said, "You really know me!" ”
Then, he walked up to Ian, sat down on the sand, bowed his head to Ian, and said, "I'm sorry, it's rude!" I beg your pardon for choosing to meet you in this place. ”
Ian also calmed down, sat down as well, and said, "It's nothing, I'm just a little surprised." ”
After speaking, Ian asked Sapo with some curiosity, "Do you know my identity?" ”
"Yes!" Sabo stretched out his hand and shook Ian, and said with a smile: "I know yours is the revolutionary army, this is what Uncle Xiong told me!" Speaking of which, your name is now known to everyone among the high-ranking cadres of the revolutionary army! ”
"How?" Ian asked, "The high-ranking cadres of the revolutionary army know my identity?" ”
"No, it's only a few people who know!" Sapo waved his hand and said: "Among the cadres of the revolutionary army, there are very few people who know each other's identities, most of them do their own thing, I just say this, it is because of what you did in Mary Joa, do you know, when we got the real information about the incident in Mary Joya, we were all surprised, I didn't expect that after Fisher Tiger of the Sun Pirates, someone once again freed the slaves from the Dracons and escaped from the hands of the Admiral." ”
Hearing Sabo's words, Ian breathed a sigh of relief, he still thought that the matter of being a revolutionary army had been known to everyone within the revolutionary army, and now that he looked at it, it seemed that only a few major people knew their true identity.
The leader of the revolutionary army, Dorag, must know, Uncle Bear must know, and Sapo ......
Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but ask Sabo curiously: "By the way, Sabo, what is your current position in the revolutionary army...... Ah, sorry, can you say this? ”
Sabo nodded and said, "It's okay, for my companions, this is not a secret, my current position is the chief of staff of the revolutionary army!" Well, I just got promoted by Uncle Dorag. ”
Yi An suddenly felt a sudden shock, and secretly said that this is indeed the case, Sabo has indeed become the chief of staff of the revolutionary army, this is the second position of the revolutionary army, with his current identity, he can naturally know himself.
But...... What Ian is most curious about now is why Sapotha is in Alabastan!
The sudden sight of Sabo had already surprised him, and what surprised him even more was how Sabo could be in Alabastan, because in Ian's impression, according to the original history, Sabo didn't seem to have appeared in Alabastan!
Thinking so, Ian naturally asked.
"That's right!" Sapo thought about it, but still told Ian the truth, and said: "In the past two years in Alabastan, because of the continuous drought, there have been signs of unrest, and in the city of Katerea, Alabastan, a rebel army has appeared, and they seem to want to carry out an uprising and overthrow the rule of the Neferutali family, the royal family of Alabastan. ”
"This ......," Ian said with some astonishment, "You don't want the revolutionary army to get involved in this, do you?" ”
"It's not decided yet!" Sapo shook his head: "I'm just taking people in this country now to find out the real situation." ”
Ian asked, "How long have you been here?" What's the situation? ”
"We've been here for a while, and we've been secretly investigating!" "In the past two years, there has been no rain in the country of Alabastan, except for the capital Albana, which is so unusual that it feels like it is man-made...... The people of other cities in this country have been hoping to take artificial rain measures to obtain rain, but when they petitioned, they were rejected by the king, and according to the information obtained by our revolutionary army, recently, someone in the underground world has secretly bought dancing powder and then transported it to Alabastan, although it has not yet been ascertained who the buyer is, but this is enough to arouse our vigilance! ”
Ian pestle his chin, tapped his fingers on his legs, and said thoughtfully, "You mean, you suspect that the person who buys the dancing powder is the king?" ”
"It's a possibility!" Sabo nodded: "If it is found out that it is really the dancing powder secretly purchased by the king, then the revolutionary army will have a reason to intervene and support the rebels, this kind of country that does not care about the lives of the people is what the revolutionary army hates the most!" But ......"
"But what?" Hearing that Sapo finally suddenly took a turn of events, Ian couldn't help but ask.
"Still, I always feel like there's something strange about this!" Sapo frowned and said: "In fact, according to our recent investigation, the Neferutali family has ruled the country of Alabastan for a long time, and almost every king has a good reputation among the people, and the current king Kobra is the same, he has always been respected by the people, and it doesn't seem like he would do such a thing......"
Of course not! Ian couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, is this the ghost of this guy Klokdahl?
However, Ian couldn't say it directly, don't forget, he had just landed in this country, how could he know the real situation of this country better than Sapo and them, who had been investigating for a long time?
Fortunately, Sapo is worthy of being the chief of staff of the revolutionary army, and his intelligence is naturally very high, and he has already sensed that something is wrong.
Ian then asked him, "What are you going to do next?" Is this what came to me for? ”
