Chapter 246 The Coming Storm

Zoro looked at the Ninja King, thought for a while and said, "What a formidable opponent. But no wonder he likes Alabasta so much. There are so many deserts."

The Ninja King continued: "Crocodile can also use sand to create soldiers that can move freely. Those soldiers are extremely tall and have the same attack ability as a human Hercules."

Chopper said in surprise: "It's too powerful."

"Go on," Rogge said.

"Krokdal can also create huge monsters out of sand. He has the ability to destroy buildings. I have seen him use it once. It is so powerful that even the giant banana crocodile you have seen pales in comparison. That’s all I know so far,” the Ninja King said.

Roger and Vers glanced at each other.

Now Crocodile is simply an evil god-like existence. Mr.1 was so powerful before. It is simply unimaginable how powerful Crocodile is.

Rogge looked at the goddess of spring water again.

The spring goddess also said, "I also know some of Crocodile's skills."

Next, the goddess of springs began to tell what she knew about Crocodile's abilities.

"Krokdal can dry up the earth. He can even absorb all the moisture from the stones. It can break the earth into pieces and even turn it into sand. He once used his ability to turn an abandoned city the size of a square. The streets turned to fragments and then to sand," said the Fountain Goddess.

After listening to the narration of the spring water goddess, everyone present looked a little moved.

Roger said with a serious face: "Such a powerful ability."

Usopp said with sweat on his face, "It's really scary."

Crocodile is an extremely powerful enemy, as long as everyone does not defeat Crocodile, they cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

After thinking about it, Rogge said, "If this is the case, then we still have to fight hard. And we must go to Arubana as soon as possible, and try to protect King Cobra there."

Although Rogge had just a few words, he pointed out the direction for everyone.

"Okay, I thought so too," Usopp said.

"Rogge, it's the best thing we do," Vers said.

"Okay, let's go beat up Crocodile." Luffy said happily.

"I'll do my best too." Chopper said, clenching his hooves.

Sauron, who was always serious, also stood up and said, "Since the goal is set, let's act quickly."

"it is good"

Everyone went to Arubana with high spirits.

Alabasta is full of chaos, and the rebel army is still severely divided internally, even attacking each other.

However, there were also rebels who went north to attack Arubana because they had a deep hatred for the king's army.

In the northeast of Alabasta, the capital Arubana is on the huge cliff. This huge city still stands on the huge cliff after vicissitudes.

At the southern gate, the huge city gate above the hundreds of meters of steps was firmly locked.

On the huge city wall above, the guards of the King's Army use remote telescopes to observe everything in the distance all the time.

A large city fire cannon with a door diameter of up to one meter was aimed at the distance.

Once a large force arrives from a distance, these city defense artillery can be used to shoot powerful heavy artillery shells to explode the enemy's center.

"There is a situation"

A soldier on the sentry saw through his telescope that a large number of people and horses were marching here in the distance.

The city defense soldiers hurried to their combat positions.

Officers also continue to conduct observations.

From the remote telescope, I can only see sand and dust rising in the south direction. If you look carefully, a large number of people are getting closer.

The group rides on horses, camels, and even carriages.

But there are many heavy artillery pulled behind those carriages.

The officers in charge of city defense immediately understood that the rebel army was attacking here.

"All troops ready to fight"

Orders were delivered promptly.

The heavy city fire artillery was loaded with heavy artillery shells with a diameter of one meter.

The short-range mortars were loaded and on standby.

A machine gun is loaded and ready to fire.

A brutal fight is about to begin.

In the desert south of Aruba, about rebels came here.

Leading this rebel army is a middle-aged strong man named Lunt.He is one of the veteran cadres of the rebel army.

Kosha was assassinated, and the top rebel army was torn apart.

Lent led some rebels who were willing to attack Arubana and worked tirelessly across the vast desert to the north.

Lunt rode on a strong black horse, and he waved.

The senior officers behind them halted their advance and passed on orders.

Lunt looked at Arupana, which was only about a kilometer away. This capital city built on a huge cliff was the place he hated the most.

Lunt took out a pocket watch from his clothes.

Open the pocket watch and there is a photo on it.

It was a group photo of a happy family of three.

The burly Lunt, his wife and daughter.

In the background is the King's Palace in Arubana.

Lunt is a native of Aruba. He and his wife and daughter have lived a happy and harmonious life in this historic capital for a long time.

Cobra is the monarch he and his family admire.

A great king who is benevolent and wise.

But since the beginning of the Alabasta Civil War, everything has changed.

Although Arubana was not directly affected by the war.But some people from the King's Army searched here extensively in order to prevent the infiltration of the rebel army.Lent was arrested.Although he pleaded his innocence, it didn't help.

He will always remember the grief of his wife and daughter when he was taken away.

When he manages to escape from prison, he returns home.

But he saw an unbelievable scene.

Lunt saw his wife and daughter fall to the ground wrist by wrist.

He cried out for his wife and daughter with tears in his face but still lost them forever.

From that time on, Lent believed that his arrest by the king's army caused his wife and daughter to despair, and even committed suicide.

Lunt decided to join the rebel army and completely wipe out Cobra and the king's army.

Lent's rough face still couldn't help the tears streaming down, and he put away the pocket watch.

Lunt looked towards the capital on the cliff.

"Everyone, today we are here and the tyrant Neferutari Kobra is hiding here. We have all suffered from his tyranny. Today, we are going to attack here and kill that tyrant and his All the lackeys are punished," Lunt shouted loudly.

Lunt's shouts had a great morale-boosting effect.

These soldiers were all victims of the civil war. They shouted: "Invade Arupana!"

The soldiers began to unload the cannon and weapons from the wagons and prepare for battle.
