Chapter 24

After what happened in the tavern during the day, Ryan no longer wanted to go to the tavern to inquire about the news. There were too many people like the young man killed by Kira, and almost every tavern had them.

Such people can't be killed and killed. What Ryan can do is not to go to the tavern. Otherwise, he can't help but kill them. Ryan is not like Luffy and Shanks who are bullied and insulted and still indifferent.

It's not that Luffy and Shanks are bad, but Ryan can't accept it. After all, Ryan is not them and can't live like them.

Since he can't find out the news about Robin here, Ryan decided to go directly to the rain to find Crocodile.

Ryan found a very interesting thing in Alabasta.

That is, the current Crocodile is actually the hero of Alabasta, and the people of Alabasta are grateful to Crocodile for his contribution to the country from the bottom of their hearts, even though he is a pirate.

Since Crocodile came to Alabasta a few years ago and discovered the secret of the ancient weapon Pluto, he has been thinking about finding this legendary ancient weapon and taking it for himself.

When Crocodile discovered that the secret of Hades seemed to be in the hands of the Nefertari family, the royal family of Alabasta, Crocodile started his plan to gain power.

Ryan was also very curious about why Crocodile spent so much time in Alabasta. If it was simply for an illusory Hades, it would be really wrong unless he discovered some other unknown secrets.

After all, it was because Crocodile's strength and opportunities did not improve much in the past ten years in Alabasta. Crocodile, who had just debuted, was a man who could tie with Barrett.

It is conceivable that Crocodile's talent was wasted by him. But even such Crocodile performed very well in the war at the top.

Do it when you think of it. Ryan and his party explored the ruins of ancient civilization while rushing on the road and arrived at the rainy land the next day. Passers-by who didn't know thought they were tourists.

The biggest difference between Rainland and other cities in Alabasta is the living environment here. Rainland is the only oasis in Alabasta. There is plenty of rain here, unlike other cities. It is called the land of heaven by the people of Alabasta.

"Captain, who are we looking for here?" Kidd said with a little complaint. According to Kidd's meaning, they should go directly to the capital Albana now.

"Looking for a woman."

"What! You want to find other women after having me." Lori said with a little grievance.

Ryan was speechless for a moment: "What is this?"

The conversation between the two aroused everyone's curiosity.

Ryan did not answer and walked forward on his own.

"Bailey, what do you think the captain is looking for that woman for?" Kidd asked curiously.

"Don't ask what a child shouldn't ask."

"You are only two years older than me. Why do you say I am a child?"

"I am better than you."

Bailey killed him in one move, leaving only Kidd in impotent rage.

"Uncle, do you know where Crocodile is?" Ryan asked a middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man said with a vigilant look: "Why are you looking for Crocodile?"

"I have a piece of news to sell to Crocodile."

"Oh, that's it."

Then the middle-aged man pointed Ryan in the direction. There was a castle in the center of the rainy land. That was where Crocodile lived.

After knowing the exact location, Ryan led a group of people to rush there. Sure enough, there was an ancient castle in the center of the rainy land, and there were two guards at the door of the castle.

"I'm looking for Crocodile." Ryan stepped forward and said lightly.

The guard was immediately angry when he saw Ryan's light expression: "How dare you disrespect the adults."

The guard clenched his weapons and was about to take action.

"Crocodile, please come in." A burly young man who walked out of the castle said to Ryan and the others.

Ryan has recognized who the person is. It is Mr. 1 from Baroque Studio. Mr. 1 is still immature and his dead fish-like eyes remain unchanged.

"Lead the way." Ryan said lightly.

Mr. 1 was not angry and led Ryan and his party to a hall like a robot without emotions. Sand Crocodile, one of the future Seven Warlords of the Sea, was sitting on the main seat above and watching everyone.

"I heard that the bloody swordsman wanted to sell the news to me." Crocodile's words came.

"It seems that you have completely controlled the rain land."

"Of course I am the hero of Alabasta." Crocodile laughed."Where is Nico Robin?" Ryan asked expressionlessly.

Crocodile's pupils shrank slightly, and then he smiled: "So you came for Pluto."

"No, I came for Nico Robin."

"Are you kidding me?" Crocodile stood up angrily.

"It seems that Nico Robin is really here with you." Ryan smiled.

"So what?"

"Leave him to me."

"Robin, are you going to go with him?" Crocodile said to the darkness.

At this time, a girl came out of the darkness and said to Crocodile: "Of course not BOSS."

"Robin!" Ryan shouted excitedly to Robin, looking at Robin who was still a girl.

The people of the Ryan Pirates on the side looked at Ryan's excitement and were very curious about who this Nico Robin was that made their captain care so much.

How could they know that Ryan knew Robin in his previous life. As a fan of the anime of One Piece, Robin is Ryan's favorite female character.

If you know Robin well enough, you will find that most of the time Robin has a faint smile on his face. It is hard to imagine that a person who has experienced such painful things in his childhood can still show his best side in front of others.

How can such a Robin not make people feel distressed!

"I don't seem to know you, bloody swordsman Ryan!" Robin said lightly, looking at the excited Ryan in front of him.

In her opinion, Ryan was just excited because he valued his own value.

"But I know you, I know everything about you, Robin." Ryan smiled.

For some reason, when Robin saw Ryan's smile, her heart was touched, as if the other party really didn't want to use her because he knew her value.

But Robin woke up in an instant, and no one in the world would be sincere to him anymore.

Ryan didn't care about Robin's cold response, because he knew that it would take time to change Robin's view of him. The most important thing now was to take Robin away and let Robin leave Crocodile.

"Give me Robin and I'll tell you the true location of Pluto."

"Do you know where Pluto is?" Crocodile turned into a ball of sand and quickly came to Ryan. It can be seen that he is very excited now.

"Give me Robin and I'll tell you." Ryan stared at Crocodile in front of him and continued.

"You tell me first, if it's true, I'll give it to you."

"Okay."

Robin on the side had a blank expression on her face, as if she was used to this situation.

"Pluto is not in Alabasta, but in Raftel." Ryan said to Crocodile.

"How is it possible!" Crocodile screamed in disbelief.

He had been operating here for several years because he found traces of Pluto in Alabasta, but Ryan's words made him believe it.

If Ryan said that Pluto was in other places, Crocodile would naturally not believe it, but if he said it was in the final island of Raftel, people would have to believe it a little. After all, Raftel is the final island, and nothing in it would be strange.

"How did you know?"

"I have two teachers, one is Spark Jabba and the other is Silvers Rayleigh."

"The right and left hands of the Pirate King! I didn't expect you to be their disciple." Everyone was shocked to hear that Ryan was the disciple of the right and left hands of the Pirate King, including Bailey.

Bailey: "Why didn't I know that Teacher Jabba was the left hand of the Pirate King!"

And Kidd, Killer, and Loli on the side all cast admiring eyes.

"No, if it was really in Raftel, why didn't the Pirate King drive him out but chose to surrender!" Crocodile questioned Ryan loudly.

"Because the Pirate King was dying, he chose to start the Age of Exploration and leave everything to future generations." Ryan explained.

Although all this was made up by Ryan, Ryan did not lie to Crocodile in one thing, that is, Pluto was definitely not in Alabasta.

If Pluto was in Alabasta, the World Government would have taken it away long ago. How could it wait for Crocodile to find it here?

Ryan guessed that there are three places where Pluto is located. One is in the holy land of Marijoa, one is in the final island of Raftel, and the last possibility is in the giant's hometown of Elbaf.

Ryan said it was in Raftel because it seemed more real. If Ryan didn't know that he was making it up, he might have believed it. How could Rayleigh and Jabba tell him these things?

"I've already told you, you can hand Robin to me now!"

"Bloody Swordsman, you are too naive! In this world, strength is the key."Rockdale's body turned into sand and he laughed.

Ryan also pulled out the wooden horse bull from his waist and laughed: "You are right, but you overestimate yourself."

The war was about to start.
