Ode!

Klockdahl turned into several sandstorms, scattered in the surrounding sand, dodging back and forth.

As a natural Devil Fruit ability, and in the home field that matches his own "element", Klockdahl's mobility can be called invincible.

He's not interested in hand-to-hand combat with primitives!

The best choice is to use speed to contain from a distance and slowly consume the physical strength of primitive people.

"Hehehehehe......"

Crocodall swung around with a cigar in his mouth, occasionally swinging a few sandstorms at Evan Lindsay in the center.

It feels just right!

But in the next second, Klockdahl, who was retreating, suddenly felt that he had "bumped" into something.

“？！”

Klockdahl turned his head to look, only to find that there was nothing behind him.

When I looked down again, I found several "inward arrows" under my feet!

"It's ......"

“！”

Klockdalton felt bad and looked around.

I saw that with Evan Lindsay as the center, there was a circle of inward arrows on the ground around it!

The flow of force changes.

From the natural evenly divided everywhere, it has become all inward, pointing to Evan Lindsay!

"Aha!"

Lindsay straightened up, his illusory arms clasped together and slammed into his hands.

Syllable!

Visible fluctuations spread around, squeezing the arrows inward.

"Tsk!"

For a moment, Klockdahl only felt that the "force" was pushing him, forcing him to narrow down his range of action and go straight to Evan Lindsay.

The feeling of being unable to control himself made Klockdahl's face change, and he instinctively attacked with all his might.

The grit swelled, constructing a razor-sharp greatsword and swinging it at Lindsay.

Desert Greatsword!

Swish!

The blade was about to hit Evan Lindsay's body, but at that moment, it was the first to hit the "fingers" of that illusory arm.

The arrows that formed the illusory arms spread across the greatsword and further invaded Klockdahl himself, spreading across the surface of his body.

The arrows are out of order, and the flow of force is scattered everywhere.

Lindsay snapped her eyes open, the arrows in her pupils wandering, and finally locked onto Crocodall.

Extend your finger and tap it gently.

Bang!

The arrows scattered in all directions, tearing apart along with Klockdahl's body!

……

The winner is decided.

The grit regrouped and turned into the form of Klockdahl.

He simply put on a new cigar and sat cross-legged on the ground again, recalling the battle.

There is no doubt that the degree of development of the sand fruit has gone further.

But even so, it still can't compare to Evan Lindsay's evolutionary speed!

"Human Fruit, Phantom Beast, Demon Form ......"

Klockdahl muttered the name, silently thinking:

"Is there really a 'demon' in this world?"

"No, the power of the Devil Fruit doesn't have to be 'real'!"

"For example, the [Wise General] Warring States, his human fruit, phantom beast species, and big Buddha form, there is no real 'Buddha' in this world."

"So...... What is the source of the Devil Fruit's ability? ”

Klockdahl reminisced about the past.

"What is the relationship between the true infinite earth and the source of the Devil Fruit's power?"

"What did the ancients discover?"

“……”

The more you think about it, the more questions will appear, and even many wonderful ideas will come up!

As a pragmatist through and through, Klockdahl didn't like the feeling.

"Isn't this the same as the primitives!"

“……”

At this moment, Evan Lindsay also sat down.

He had just sweated comfortably, was in a good mood, and pulled out the last two bananas.

Hand one to Klockdahl.

Klockdahl: "......"

Klockdahl: "Alas......"

He took the banana and peeled it, intending to say something more pragmatic.

"The intelligence of the infinite earth is from the side of Anilu."

"On the other hand, I found something more interesting in the base camp of the Golden Lion."

Klockdahl took a bite of the banana and slowly spat out the name:

"[Ancient Weapon] - Hades."

On this note, Klocodahl did not intend to hide it from Lindsay.

In fact, he is too lazy to fight with primitive people now.

Anyway, the goal is to find "ancient things", and instead of wasting effort, it is better to make the words clear at the beginning.

Sure enough.

When Evan Lindsey heard this, he just ate the banana silently, and did not show the slightest surprise.

Klockdahl continued:

"The whereabouts of the 'body' of the Hades King are unknown, but there are more primitive records in the base camp of the golden lion."

"—Plans for Hades!"

Klockdahl's gaze froze.

"I asked Robin to translate it, according to ancient documents, the so-called 'Hades' is actually a terrifying warship beyond the imagination of the world."

"It was built by man, and the site where it was built still exists!"

"To be honest, I don't like that place......"

"There are too many 'waters' and 'seas', and it is difficult for the rustling fruit to exert its strength."

Klockdal paused and uttered the name:

"Once the world's No. 1 shipyard - the capital of seven waters!"

“……”

……

The next goal was set.

Evan Lindsay, Klockdahl, Nicole Robin, the trio traveled.

Needless to say, the first two must be followed.

She couldn't fully trust Klockdahl, and she always felt that Evan Lindsey was a little too open-minded, and even her brain circuits weren't quite right.

When it comes to the [Ancient Weapon] that is enough to destroy the world, Robin must explore its truth.

But on the other side, the three of them were not in a hurry to leave.

The impact of this incident was so great that countless eyes were glued to Alabastan.

If you move at this time, you are afraid that every move will fall into the monitoring of others, and it is difficult to have the opportunity to operate secretly.

So the three chose to wait patiently until the storm on the surface subsided.

……

About two months later.

The situation in Alabastan is gradually improving.

With the exception of Arubana, the hardest-hit royal capital, most of the inhabitants of the rest of the country have returned to normal life.

As for the reconstruction of Arubana, it was greatly accelerated with the assistance of many Devil Fruit abilities.

Klockdahl continued to search for information that might be left behind, and by the way, the useless wreckage was sanded for easy transport.

Lindsay, on the other hand, helped stabilize the foundations of Arubana and excavated a large amount of stone.

Uta, Robin and the others had nothing to do, and they all did their part.

Until the early morning of this day, everyone was ready to set off and rushed to the port city of "Rape Flower" early.

Another voyage, another separation.

Another new adventure.

Set sail.

……

Kobra, Gordon, and the rest of Alabastan and Aregia bid farewell to the trio at the docks.

Kobra's political vision is quite good, and he has a benevolent heart, so naturally he will not refuse Gordon's request.

Alabastan has formed an alliance with Eleguia, and the former will fully support Eleguia's pioneering projects.

Kobra even promised that he would do his best to assist Gordon and restore Eleguia's status as a member of the world conference in the future!

……

Standing on the dock, Gordon looked at the ships that were gradually leaving, and couldn't help but sigh:

"Ah, that's great!"

"In this way, the land of music will not disappear into the sea, and the destination of many musicians will not disappear!"

"Your Excellency's [Red-haired] commission, I'm half done."

"All that's left is to teach Uta well and make her a top musician......"

"Huh?"

Sighing at this, Gordon was suddenly stunned, then looked around, and his face suddenly changed.

"Where's Uta?"

"Lord Kobra, Uta is gone!"

“……”

"That-"

At this moment, a small figure poked its head out.

It was the little princess of Alabastan, Vivi, who was hiding behind Bell, and raised her hand with a look of guilt and said:

"Uta said she was the most adventurous, so I hid her in the ship's barrel......"

“……”

……

Aboard.

Klockdahl couldn't stand the noise on the deck, so he simply hid in the cabin, intending to eat something first.

When I came to the cabin, I saw a wine barrel bouncing back and forth, and finally a small figure broke through the lid of the barrel and jumped out.

"Wow!"

Uta leaped to his feet, then landed steadily, and when he raised his eyes, he saw a stunned Klockdal.

Lindsay and Robin also sensed the movement, poking their heads out of the sides of the hatch and looking in.

Uta beckoned vigorously to the three of them, and said excitedly:

"Hey, everyone!"

“……”

Seeing this, Klockdahl couldn't help but take a sharp puff on his cigar and asked gloomily, "How did you get up?" ”

"Ah......h

Uta opened her mouth, her purple eyes rolling back and forth, and she defended herself:

"Take the freight elevator!"

“……”

Klockdahl took another sharp breath, was speechless, and turned to leave.

The ship can't stay!
