Chapter 30



Crocodile’s Fear


In the desert outside the Rainland, Crocodile watched Luffy slowly enter the sand stream and smiled disdainfully. He turned to the Rainland and said, “There is another troublesome guy next.”


He stirred up a ball of sand and flew towards the rain. Then, he gathered a small sandstorm in his hand and threw it forward.


“Sha Lan!”


The sand storm took shape in the desert and became bigger and bigger, turning into a huge desert storm that rushed straight to the rainy land.


“Sandstorm, it’s a sandstorm!”


“It’s coming in this direction!”


“Go and take refuge!”


The Rainland residents fled when they saw the incoming sandstorm.


The sandstorm swept through a large number of buildings, leaving a mess in its wake.


“Sand… Sandstorm!”


Tashigi, who was about to move out, looked shocked and said to Marine, “Get out of the way!”


Marines dodged one after another, almost sticking to the range of the sandstorm, but the strong wind brought by the strong sandstorm still blew Marines into pieces.


“Bah!”


Crowe stood up from the ruins and vomited a few times to spit out the dirt on his mouth. Before he could take a closer look at his surroundings, a sandstorm swept over and gathered into a human shape in front of him.


Crowe’s face turned serious and he looked at the person in front of him with wide eyes.


Seven Warlords of the Sea, the famous pirate of the Grand Line, Crocodile!


“You are Crowe?”


Crocodile looked fearfully at the knife at Kro’s waist. “The Marine who was praised by Hawkeye?”


“?”


“Who?”


Crowe nodded subconsciously at first, then shook his head violently.


“Don’t admit it, Marine. Forget it. No matter what, you are a big problem.”


Crocodile put the cigarette in his mouth and said: “So, you stay here.”


Crowe was so scared that he broke out in a cold sweat. Out of safety, he subconsciously held the handle of the knife and then released it. Realizing that he was not a knife player, he shook his head frantically. “You are mistaken. I am not Crowe, no, I am Crowe, but I am not a swordsman.”


Crocodile narrowed his eyes and his expression gradually became serious.


When he held the hilt just now, he clearly took the bait, but he still put it down. Did he see through my plan?


Shichibukai and Marine are both under the World Government and are in the same camp. Crocodile does not want to be exposed, even if he gets what he wants later, it is not the time to go against the government.


Shichibukai’s identity is very useful.


Only by forcing Marine to make the first move would he have an excuse to make a move.


After all, this man could not be underestimated. Although he was confident, he also knew that a man praised by Hawkeye was not so easy to deal with.


Even if he wanted to force him to make a move, the moment Crowe really held the hilt, Crocodile himself became nervous.


This man cannot be underestimated.


Crocodile began to float around him and took the initiative to enter elementalization, and there was a trace of red in his eyes.


Observation Haki is a Haki that can only be used by people when they are extremely calm. They can see the biological aura and the next move of the other party.


Crocodile, of course, would be domineering.


His Kenbonshoku (Observation) doesn’t belong to the wide range, nor can he predict it, but he can still see through the other party’s movements and be vigilant of its danger.


“What’s going on? Why is there no movement?”


In Crocodile’s Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki, Crowe didn’t have any aura or movements around him. He just stood there, just like an ordinary pirate who was scared silly by him.


But surely not.


This is a man praised by Hawkeye. It can’t be that.


Is he waiting for me to make a move and arrest me?


Or is it that I can’t see through his strength at all?!


“He is indeed a difficult man…” Crocodile said solemnly: “I can’t keep you.”


And Crowe …


He thought of nothing.


He was really scared silly.


What the hell is this!


Why is the aura so dangerous!


Is that looming sand manifestation an active elementalization?!


Crowe has dealt with Smoker quite a lot, so he naturally knows what this symbol is.


What right does he have!


At this moment, Crowe only wanted to roar at the sky.


Should he be honored to be called a difficult man by Shichibukai?


It seemed to be an honor, provided that it was not so dangerous.


Why, why did it become like this?


Shouldn’t he be calm and quiet in the Marine and live a peaceful life with Kuro and others every day? What’s going on with Shichibukai?


“I’m just an ordinary little Marine. I’m only third class.” Crowe tried to explain.


“Third-class soldier? Only famous now?”


Crocodile, on the other hand, did not dare to make a move. This person looks to be 30 years old. He is so strong, but he has never been famous in East Blue. This guy is quite scheming.


With the strength of a Great Swordsman, once they really fight, there will probably be no end to it. It was indeed unrealistic to let Sha Lan blow this person away just now.


At this moment, he regretted it a little. He shouldn’t have attacked now, but if he didn’t, he was afraid that it would be more troublesome in Alba and it would affect his plan.


The two were in a deadlock.


A gust of sand blew past, blowing the clothes of the two people, just like the scene of the duel in the west, under the sunset, it gradually turned into a painting.


“Desert Blade!”


Crocodile couldn’t help but raise his hand and wave it down. A dark line cut from the ground and went straight to Crowe.


“Shave!”


Crowe’s pupils shrank. When Crocodile attacked, he felt great danger. He took a step and ran far away.


“Sha Lan!”


Crocodile, who was fighting with all his might, was naturally prepared. The moment Crowe moved, a sandstorm appeared in his hand and he threw it forward, forming a desert storm in front of him.


At the same time, the sand around him dispersed and he was swept into the desert storm, instantly attacking Crowe.


Whoosh!


Crowe didn’t run away at all. He was blown into the sandstorm and thrown high.


However, in the blink of an eye, Crocodile tensed up and his whole body seemed to be stabbed by a sword. He quickly dispersed the sand and retreated to the back. His right hand formed a desert sword and he stared up.


No one.


There was no sign in the sky.


There was no sign of Crowe around either.


I don’t know where he went.


“What’s going on?”


Crocodile’s face sank. When he attacked just now, he almost thought that Crowe was a fake, that strength was not his opponent at all, he was just a small Marine.


However, the feeling of being cut by a knife coming from the heart would not be wrong.


“What is that man trying to do.”


His expression was uncertain.


In the desert beyond the rainy land, a dark figure flew from afar and landed on the desert with a bang.


“It’s quite accurate.”


Kuro and Leda walked over from the nearby buildings and glanced at Crowe, whose feet were swinging wildly. Leda grabbed him with one hand and picked him up.


“I… I almost died.”


Crowe was in a sorry state, panting wildly with a lingering fear on his face.


He was really close to losing him.
