Chapter 66: The Rain of June

The sky is clear and the sun is blazing.

There was no sign of rain.

That's right, the rain in Alabastan is already scarce, not to mention the fact that dancing powder was used here many times a few years ago, and now it has suffered a certain degree of backlash, and it has not rained for a long time.

The rebel army moved very fast, and when Luffy and the others arrived, they saw countless cavalry and infantry, holding sharp swords and axes in their hands, or more lethal firearms, cannonballs, etc., shouting and killing them.

The smoke and dust in front of them were billowing and shouting all over the sky, and all the people who were dressed similarly and had similar expressions as far as the eye could see, their eyes were firm, their faces were solemn, there was no joy or sorrow, only anger.

"How many people are there?!" Seeing a war of this scale for the first time, Nami's eyes froze.

"I heard from that Lili that the rebel army numbered more than 2 million people......

2 million, the entire Alabastan has 10 million people, and Wang *** has about 600,000, which means that this war directly involved more than a quarter of the country's population, and this does not include the old, weak, sick, disabled and young, so maybe more than eighty percent of the young and strong in the whole country are here.

Hearing this terrifying number, even Luffy and the others couldn't help but be awe-inspired, but what they had already decided to do, they would not make any concessions.

High in the air, Marcus was munching on grilled chicken wings while lying on the edge of the flying carpet and looking down, and when his eyes fell on Luffy and the others, a sincere sense of admiration arose.

"For the sake of their partners, they dare to directly intervene in a large-scale war of 2.7 million people, and this group of them really values love and righteousness......

Romeo lay beside him, his hands constantly putting chips in his mouth, and at the same time his eyes lit up and he exclaimed, "That's amazing! So handsome!

Are all pirates like that?"

"Not really! They're just the exception!" The old father, Macao, slammed his fist on his son's head, then spat out a puff of cigarette from his mouth, "But they are handsome!"

Old smoker Wakaba chimed in, "That's right! Whether it's the group of young chivalrous pirates or the princess who strives for self-improvement, it's all the same touching!

The two middle-aged uncles cried as they spoke, and the girls were big for a while.

"Kira, how long do you have to prepare?"

At this time, Kira was sitting cross-legged on the flying carpet with her eyes closed, and if it weren't for her waist board and straight upright, it would basically be no different from falling asleep.

But in reality, Kira wasn't really asleep, he was just feeling the energy in the air and trying to use it freely.

Suddenly, Kira opened his eyes, his sky-blue eyes matched the clear blue sky behind him, as if he had become one with nature, and his body was full of rich magic, which looked extremely moving.

"Almost! It's up to me next...... Hey?! They're already fighting??"

Below, the rebel leader Kosha led the charge.

This time, there were no members of the Baroque Work Society who deliberately stirred up trouble and provoked war in Wang ***, and Weiwei's figure appeared directly in front of the rebels, her arms wide open, shouting loudly, vowing to stop the thousands of troops in front of her with her own strength.

"Vivi?! How could she be here??! The moment he saw the person blocking the way, Kosha's face changed dramatically.

Although they haven't seen each other for many years, the long flowing blue hair and the stubborn and resolute face have always haunted Kosha's heart, the two were once playmates and close friends, but unfortunately they haven't seen each other for many years, and now one is still a princess, and the other has become the leader of the rebel army.

Although they were less than 100 meters apart, it was as if they were separated by a patheticly thick barrier.

"Stop, everybody! Listen to me......" Vivi shouted loudly with her mouth open, but the earth shook under her feet, and the roar that rushed to the sky in front of her completely drowned out the sixteen-year-old girl's voice.

"Don't be afraid, everyone! Rush forward!

"For the sake of the future of our country, we must not spare the king!

"This is the last battle!

Come on!

「……」

On the city wall, Bell, who had just arrived, met with Gaca, and brought back the news that Princess Vivi had defeated Klockdal with the help of the Straw Hat Pirates.

"You said Princess Vivi was outside the South Gate?!"

When Gaka learned from Bell that Vivi was outside the south gate at this time and was about to persuade the rebel leader to stop the war, his face changed drastically, and he stepped forward and grabbed his old friend by the neckline, shouting angrily, "How can you let her go in such a dangerous place?!"

"This is Princess Vivi's decision! You know her character, I can't listen to her at all, and those pirates are messing around with her!"

After Bell finished conveying the news, he turned into a falcon form again and turned around and flew in the direction of Vivi, "Anyway, you heard, no matter what happens, you must not attack! This is Princess Vivi's order!"

"Damn!"

……

"Damn!

Why would you be in that kind of place...... Vivi?!"

In front of him, Kosha didn't have time to think, and when he gritted his teeth and was ruthless, he immediately made a decision that shocked him.

I saw him quickly pull out the long sword in his hand, and then shouted to the rear: "Don't disperse, everyone! Concentrate your fire on the South Gate! Then open all the doors from the inside!

Weiwei was directly stunned, and at that moment, her heart was cold.

The girl fell to her knees with a "snap", and tears as big as pearls fell from her eyes and drums: "Why...... Why ......"

Why can't anyone in front of the 2 million rebels hear her voice!

Endless despair wandered in the girl's heart, but fortunately, behind the girl, there was a group of reliable companions.

Syllable!

A large hand pressed on Vivi's shoulder, "Your voice...... We hear you!

The familiar voice made Vivi's crying stop abruptly, and she looked up aggressively, looking ahead in disbelief, only to see Luffy, Zoro, Sanji, Usopp, and Chopper, all standing in front of him in a row.

There were only five of them, but their backs looked so reliable, and the weight in them was far greater than the strongest golden barrier in the world.

"Everybody...... Wait a minute! Everyone, you don't want to fight them, do you?"

Suddenly, Weiwei's nose was sore, and tears flowed again, but soon she realized the decision of Luffy and others, which was to risk their lives and stop the decision of the 2 million people in front of her, so Weiwei's heart instantly became firm again.

"Let me try again! They are ......."

However, before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Luffy: "Vivi, I said it before! It's war! It's impossible to be immortal!"

"If you have to die, then you should let me do it! I'm the princess of this country, if my death can put an end to the war......

"Your death may not put an end to the war, but it may make it worse! If you die, there's no point in what you did before!

Luffy's words made Vivi stunned directly.

"We said yes, you're going to gamble our lives!

Besides......

Under Vivi's sparkling wet gaze, Luffy pressed the hat on his head, and then suddenly grinned, "I'm not going to die!"

……

Gradually approaching the south gate, the rebels who rushed to the front finally discovered the anomaly ahead: "Leader! Those people in front ......."

"Leave them alone! Get around! Our goal is only the South Gate!

"Ah......h But that person seems to be Princess Vivi!?"

"It's war! Don't you even have this realization??! We...... Already enemies!

The closer they got, the stronger the rebels became, and the horses and camels that galloped through the desert, without showing any signs of stopping, sprinted straight in the direction of the south gate until the two sides staggered for a moment......

"Rubber ......"

"Three Knife Streams......

"First Meat ......"

"Kill ......"

"Strength Enhancement ......"

At the last moment, 2 million rebel troops, tens of thousands of soldiers stationed at the south gate, and a group of straw hats, the world in everyone's eyes suddenly brightened and darkened, and then thousands of blue thunderbolts surrounded by three people fell from the sky.

The thunder pillar split several times in mid-air, turning into a dense thunderstorm that was a thousand times more numerous but a little more detailed, and scattered and fell on the rebel army like a raging storm, causing the 2 million army to stop in an instant.

Bang!

A stout bolt of lightning that did not split landed precisely between Luffy's group and the rebel army that was about to collide with them, instantly splashing sand and stones, and blasting up a cloud of smoke and dust several meters high on the desert.

"Nani?!"

"Lightning?!"

Everyone's faces were shocked, and the strange weather they had never seen before made them lose their minds for a while: "What's going on??! Alabastan has never had such weather!

!」

The next moment, everyone saw dark clouds like ink overhead, covering the sky and the sun.

The black, unreasonable cumulonimbus clouds seemed to be one and the same, from the nine heavens, towards Albana...... No, it was pressed down on the whole of Alabastan.

God, it's falling??

Everyone was stunned, tilting their heads and stupidly looking at this unimaginable scene.

A dragon came to Kosha on a camel and reported, "Oh no! Chieftain! Just received the news that this dark cloud seems to cover the whole of Alabastan!

Another young man cautiously asked, "Could it be a dancing fan......?"

The rebel uncle on the young man's right interrupted his speculation with a direct scolding: "No kidding! It's not just a city, or an ocean, it's a whole of Alabas!

How many dancing fans do you have to use to create this kind of scene?! Not to mention the centuries-old history of Alabastan, even the entire Great Shipping Route has never heard of an island with such a terrible climate!"

"Is this ...... Is it the end of the world?"

Is it the end of the world?

Everyone wiped the cold sweat from their foreheads and thought in unison, "Maybe it's not the end of the world, but the end of the kingdom of Alabastan." No, for the kingdom of Alabastan, this should be a day of redemption, right??"

Before everyone could figure out the reason for the change in front of them, they heard a loud bang from above the nine heavens.

The next moment, the sky is pouring ink, and the rain is pouring down! Alabastan, which has not rained for three years, is actually raining at this time!

June rain, timely rain, life-saving rain!

The merchants who traded in Nahana, the tourists who gambled in the rainlands, the old peasants who opened up the wasteland in Yuba, the soldiers who were ready to fight in Albana, and the people who were doing all kinds of things in all parts of Alabastan were all celebrating and weeping with joy at this moment.

Because their country ...... It's alive!
