Guru guru …
The Den Den Mushi on the table was ringing, and the floating sand made it float in the air. Crocodile looked at the Den Den Mushi and imitated a gloomy expression. His voice came out. "See you in Eruma in three days."
Eluma, a completely dried up town, desolate and uninhabited.
"I heard that Dessaros was attacked. Is it because you confirmed that Doflamingo left Alabasta that you launched this trade fair?" Crocodile smiled noncommittally. His dry and hoarse voice was like a rough whetstone. "You are really cautious!"
"Don't say that, you have a criminal record!" The joking voice replied. "And, it's not an attack. At best, it's just a kind greeting."
"This time, I'm full of sincerity," Crocodile said without changing his expression.
"I choose to believe you!" Yarlin's eyes narrowed. He looked at the Den Den Mushi. His gaze seemed to penetrate space and fell on the scar on Crocodile's cheek. He said seriously, "Remember to come alone!"
Hanging up the phone, Yarlin glanced at Von Kray, who had removed his heavy makeup and revealed a cold expression. Nico Robin was standing next to Von Kray. She looked at Yarlin thoughtfully.
"I need you to make a phone call to Crocodile. Just say …" Arlen clapped his hands, and a navy officer handed Nico Robin the script he had prepared.
The Den Den Mushi that was found on the two of them was also returned.
Nicole Robin skimmed through the contents of the paper and tactfully expressed her willingness to cooperate. In the past few days that she had been imprisoned in the pyramid, she had also been silently observing this strange underground lair. The more she saw, the more she could feel the unimaginable horror she felt.
Yarlin knew Crocodile, but … Crocodile, from the beginning to the end, probably didn't really see Yarlin. This was a dangerous person who was really behind the fog.
"Do you want to call now?" Ever since Nicole Robin was eight years old, the government had put a bounty of ten million on her head. For the next twenty years, in order to avoid the pursuit of the government and the navy, she had been hiding in the dark underground world, relying on betrayal to survive. The word "loyalty" had never been in her dictionary.
"The weak are deprived of even the right to breathe. If they want to survive in this filthy and depressing age, they can only rely on the strong!"
This was Nicole Robin's survival creed.
"No, in a while." Yarlin glanced at Nicole Robin's calm face. There was no trace of guilt or betrayal on her face. He suddenly began to admire this woman.
Knowledgeable, smart, rational, cold … No wonder he could survive the pursuit of the World Government.
Time passed by slowly. There was no sunlight in the pyramid, and it was impossible to tell whether the sun rose or set. There was only the ticking of a clock.
When the hour hand turned another square, Nico Robin picked up the Den Den Mushi and dialed a number. "Gulu Gulu Gulu" She heard the sound of the phone ringing twice.
The phone was connected, and before the other side could speak, Nicole Robin hurriedly said: "There's a situation!"
"What's the matter?" Crocodile sat up from the sofa. There was no one in the room, only his low and hoarse voice echoed.
"Near Nefertari's palace, I found traces of Daz Bonis. His movements are suspicious. I suspect that his appearance here at this moment shouldn't be a coincidence!" Nicole Robin's voice had a hint of vigilance: "I suspect that he must know something?"
Crocodile's face suddenly became gloomy. Nicole Robin could smell the cold murderous intent coming from him through the Den Den Mushi.
"As my trusted confidant, Daz Bonis did know a lot of things. Unfortunately, Feng Kray wasn't able to kill him. Now it seems that he betrayed the Baroque studio." Crocodile gritted his teeth and said: "Have you been discovered?"
"Not for the time being, I stopped the excavation work. I'm afraid that someone will notice something!" Nicole Robin glanced at the silent Feng Kray and continued to report to the Den Den Mushi: "I asked Mr. 2 to disguise himself among Daz Bonis' people."
"Traitors who betray the studio must be cleaned up. You handled it very carefully!" Crocodile's eyes were filled with murderous intent. He used to think highly of Daz Bonis, but now he wanted to kill him. "Let Mr. 2 find a way to figure out why Daz Bonis appeared near Nefertari's palace. Also, I once suspected that Daz Bonis was captured by the Marine not only because of Smoker, but also because of Yarlin's shadow."
"I know, I will report to you as soon as I have news!" Nicole Robin looked at the sneer on Ya Erlin's face. She sighed in her heart and hung up the phone.
…
Late at night.
Alabasta Naval Branch. On the empty playground, the moonlight from the moon above the head reflected on the blade, reflecting a cold light.
Smoker gently wiped the bright blade with his sleeve. Suddenly, he turned around abruptly and the blade tore through the air, making a snake-like hiss, and cut towards the shadow behind him.
The black thread wrapped around the blade, and the blade rotated clockwise. The ink-like Armament Haki penetrated from the blade, and the smooth black thread broke inch by inch and floated in the air.
"This is not the attitude to treat an old friend!" Behind the broken black thread, Yarlin's cold face was revealed. He stared at Smoker with a smile, and his deep eyes seemed to contain unknown secrets.
"You and I can't be considered friends!" Smoker looked coldly at Yarlin, who was wearing a military uniform, and the blade in his hand was inserted back into the scabbard.
"Oh ~" Yarlin disdainfully curled his lower lip. "It doesn't matter. We are all Marines. Shichibukai, this cancer, still needs us to work together to remove it."
Smoker took a deep look at Yarlin and sneered: "You are finally willing to show up. Don't talk nonsense. Go straight to the point. Where is Crocodile?"
"Three days later!" Arlen took out a piece of paper from his trouser pocket. With a flick of his finger, the piece of paper spun and flew into Smoker's palm. "Crocodile will appear here. If you leave now, the time is just right!"
Smoker grabbed the hilt of his sword. He took a deep look at Yarlin, and his body turned into smoke and flew out of the Naval Branch …
Yarlin grinned. He looked at Vivian, who came out of the corner, and said: "It's time to take back everything that belongs to you!"
