Chapter 87 The Straw Hat Pirates Arrive

"Don't be nervous, everyone. I'm not your enemy."

Ling Tian raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and looked calmly at the royal army soldiers in front of him who seemed a little nervous because of his appearance.

His gentle voice seemed to have a magical power that instantly eased the tense atmosphere.

After hearing Ling Tian's words, the soldiers of the King's Army finally felt relieved.

As long as the mysterious man in front of me is not an enemy, it would be great.

After all, with the strength shown by the other party, if they really wanted to attack, they would probably find it difficult to resist. In addition, in their opinion, Ling Tian had no need to deceive them. If he was really an enemy, why would he waste his breath?

Just then, a man slowly walked out of the city.

Ling Tian took a closer look and recognized that the other person was Bell, the adjutant of the King of Alabasta's guard in the original work.

Bell possesses the ability of the Animal-Type Bird-Bird Fruit-Falcon-Type Devil Fruit, which allows him to transform into a falcon with excellent flying speed and attack power.

"So what is the purpose of your visit to Albana?"

Bell walked to a place a few steps away from Ling Tian and stopped, staring at him sharply and asked straight to the point.

Facing Bell's questioning, Ling Tian did not flinch. He met his gaze and answered calmly, "Well... I came here this time to save your country."

His tone was firm, and seemed full of confidence and determination.

After hearing Ling Tian's words, Bell showed a hint of confusion and worry on his face.

This stranger actually said he wanted to save their country?

Does he really know what he is talking about?

You know, the enemy they are facing is one of the legendary Seven Warlords of the Sea - Crocodile!

Although Bell knew that the man in front of him seemed to possess extraordinary strength, he still had doubts in his heart as to whether he could defeat Crocodile.

With a tentative look, Bell looked at Ling Tian and asked softly, "Do you understand the current predicament our country is in?"

Ling Tian met Bell's gaze, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he answered confidently: "Of course I know, your opponent is the famous member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Crocodile."

From Bell's expression, Ling Tian understood what was in his mind.

However, for Ling Tian, ​​an opponent like Crocodile is just a trivial obstacle.

Ok?

The previous experience of being ambushed by Crocodile and turned into a stone statue cannot be attributed to my inferior skills. It was simply a momentary carelessness!

Bell stared into Ling Tian's firm and confident eyes, and the worries in his heart gradually dissipated.

Since the other party knew that his opponent was Crocodile but still came here resolutely, it means that he must have the strength to compete with him.

Thinking of this, Bell finally breathed a sigh of relief, and his originally tense nerves relaxed a little.

He never expected that there would be people who were so ignorant as to attempt to challenge Crocodile's authority and strength.

Luffy: ...

After entering the city, Ling Tian revealed his relationship with Vivi to Bell and Cobra, and informed them that his companions would arrive in Alabasta soon.

A few days later, a pirate ship appeared in the waters of Alabasta.

At this moment, above the Merry.

"Hey everyone, we are about to arrive in Alabasta!"

Usopp, standing on the observation deck, excitedly shouted to Luffy and the others below.

Before he finished speaking, Luffy rushed to the bow of the ship like an arrow, staring at the island that was looming in front of him with wide eyes.

Hearing what Usopp said, Weiwei's heart sank. She walked towards the bow with heavy steps, her eyes lingering on that familiar yet unfamiliar land for a long time.

Although Ling Tian had arrived in Alabasta first, Weiwei was still full of worries when facing Crocodile, one of the powerful Seven Warlords of the Sea recognized by the World Government.

"It's okay, Ling Tian is very strong"

Nami looked at her slightly anxious expression and soothed her softly.

"Yes, that's our deputy captain, we have to trust him!"

Kuina also chimed in and comforted Weiwei.

After hearing their words of comfort, Weiwei felt a little better.

"Is our vice-captain strong?"

At this time, Chopper, who had just boarded the ship, heard the conversation between Nami and Kuina and asked curiously.

"Of course, very strong!" Nami nodded affirmatively.

"But... compared to me, Captain Usopp, who has more than 80 million followers, you are still a little inferior!"

Hearing Chopper's question, Usopp couldn't wait to interrupt and explained to Chopper proudly.

"Eighty million? Wow! Usopp is really amazing!" When Chopper heard this number, his eyes suddenly lit up, full of admiration and excitement.

Soon, the Merry successfully arrived at the coast of Alabasta.

As soon as Luffy saw the land, he was so excited that he ran out like a wild horse.

However, before he could run far, he was pulled back by a strong hand.

"Hey, Luffy, don't run so fast!"

Ling Tian held Luffy and said to everyone with a smile: "Long time no see, everyone!"

"Ling Tian!" Everyone saw Ling Tian and ran over and shouted in unison.

“Is this our vice-captain?”

Chopper carefully poked his head out from behind Zoro's tall figure, his big round eyes full of curiosity and confusion.

He blinked, as if he wanted to see the person in front of him more clearly, but he was a little timid.

Chopper grabbed Zoro's clothes tightly and asked softly, "Zoro, is this our vice-captain?" There was a hint of anticipation and nervousness in his voice.

Zoro looked down at Chopper and said with a smile: "Yes, our vice-captain is a strong man."

Hearing Zoro's affirmative answer, Chopper's face showed excitement.

"Hey, we have a new member!"

Looking at Chopper, who was short and wearing a hat, Ling Tian raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile.

"So, can you give us a detailed introduction?"

Ling Tian asked with a smile, his voice gentle and friendly.

Chopper hid behind Zoro's tall figure, his little hands tightly grasping the corner of his clothes, looking a little nervous and shy.

Hearing Ling Tian's question, he took a deep breath, then carefully leaned out from behind Zoro, looked at everyone with flickering eyes, and stammered: "Hello... Hello, my name is Tony Tony Chopper, a ship's doctor..."

After hearing what Chopper said, Ling Tian took a step forward, took the initiative to extend his hand, and said enthusiastically: "Hello, Chopper! I am the vice captain of the Straw Hat Pirates, Dockre D. Ling Tian. Please give me your guidance in the future!"

"If I get hurt in the future, it will all be up to you, Chopper!"
