Chapter 439 Crocodile vs. Yoru?
Chapter 439 Crocodile vs. Yoru?
Ye Yu glanced at Miss Valentine and said calmly, "There's no need. She's not my enemy."
Miss Valentine didn't believe it and pouted, saying, "Have you taken a fancy to her? She's just pretty on the outside, but she's a snake at heart."
Ye Yu smiled. "How did you know?"
Miss Valentine didn't know how to answer; her knowledge of Robin was limited to the events recorded on the Navy's bounty list.
Seeing that Miss Valentine couldn't say anything, Ye Yu sat back down on the deck, leaned against the railing, and closed his eyes to rest.
Miss Valentine, standing to the side, sighed, "Boss, are you really confident you can defeat Crocodile?"
Ye Yu said calmly, "We'll find out when the time comes. We've never fought each other, so it's impossible for us to really know."
Miss nodded helplessly on Valentine's Day.
Vivi and Icarus exchanged a glance as they stepped out of the cabin, both wondering why Yoru hadn't killed Robin.
After all, Robin is Baroque Works' second-highest-ranking agent after Crocodile.
If we take down Robin now, Yoru will have one less enemy when we get to Alabasta.
However, seeing Ye Yu's calm demeanor, the two simply shook their heads. Although they didn't understand, the initiative was in Ye Yu's hands, and if Ye Yu didn't do that, they couldn't say anything.
The ship sailed at sea for a long time before finally arriving in Alabasta.
Alabasta is a country where desert and Gobi cover most of its area. Although it is a large country in the world of One Piece, people can only build cities near oases.
Upon entering Alabasta, Vivi gave Ye Yu a white robe.
Ye Yu waved his hand and said, "No need, the sunlight here won't affect me."
Vivi hesitated for a moment, "But the sun is very strong in the desert, and I'll get sunburned if I don't wear a robe."
Ye Yu smiled and said, "I don't need it, don't worry."
Weiwei had no choice; she couldn't force Ye Yu to wear it.
Yoru wasn't worried about getting sunburned; his physical strength was terrifying, and he could also use his Haki to block out sunlight.
Of course, most people wouldn't dare to do that, because domineering energy is extremely physically demanding.
But Ye Yu had no such worries. His stamina was practically limitless, and he didn't feel like he would ever run out of energy.
The group needed to traverse a long stretch of desert and Gobi terrain to reach the capital of Alabasta.
However, when the group arrived in Alabasta, Daz Bonis and Crocodile said to Crocodile, "Boss, they've entered Alabasta."
Crocodile, a cigar dangling from his lips, said nonchalantly, "So we've finally arrived? Princess Vivi, Yoru, heh, let me see if your 5 million Berry bounty is justified."
Daz Bones remained silent, standing expressionless before Crocodile.
He is a user of the Quick-Slash Fruit. Rumors suggest he is a swordsman, but that's not actually the case; he is simply a user of the Devil Fruit.
The Quick-Cut Fruit makes his body as hard as a blade, and he can unleash terrifying slashes.
Daz Bones is very loyal to Crocodile.
She was also Crocodile's confidante, and even more trusted by him than Robin.
Robin and Crocodile's cooperation outweighs their loyalty.
Crocodile held Yoru's bounty poster in his hand, staring at it for a long time without saying a word.
He seemed to be thinking about something.
After a long pause, he smiled and said, "Although I don't want to admit it, since the Navy is offering you a bounty of 5 million Berries, I have to be careful."
“Miss AllSunday, issue a summons to all senior agents, instructing them to assemble at the Las Vegas Rainfield.”
Crocodile didn't think Yoru was that strong, because Yoru had been wanted twice and had only done things that he considered trivial.
Crocodile didn't even take either of the two battles seriously.
Arlong is the most wanted pirate in the East Blue, but in the eyes of a Shichibukai like Crocodile, he's just a nobody.
After all, Jinbe, who is much stronger than him, is only on the same level as Crocodile and is also a Shichibukai.
Of course, Jinbe's strength is far beyond what Crocodile can match.
Crocodile had never fought Jinbe, so he didn't know much about Jinbe's strength and thought that Jinbe's strength was not much different from his own.
In fact, Jinbe's abilities are a great counter to Crocodile. Crocodile is afraid of water, while Jinbe happens to be a fish-man and a master of fish-man karate, so he is very good at playing in the water.
Even without swimming, Jinbe's physical skills far surpass Crocodile's.
However, he was not an ignorant fool. He also knew very well that the main reason why Yoru had a bounty of 5 million Berries was because he used Conqueror's Haki to knock out Smoker and a group of Marines in Loguetown.
Crocodile knew very well that Conqueror's Haki was difficult to possess, but it was merely a kind of talent.
A quality that will make one a king in the future.
Crocodile doesn't possess this quality, but he doesn't care. There are many people in the New World who have Conqueror's Haki, but few of them can reach the ranks of the strongest.
Robin, standing next to Crocodile, said nothing and went to issue the summons.
After Robin left, Daz Bones hesitated for a moment and asked, "Boss, is this necessary?"
Crocodile smiled, looking at the crocodile in the tank, and said, "Of course it's necessary. That guy has a bounty of 5 million Berries. The Navy knows his potential better than we do."
"And it's always good to be cautious."
Daz Bonis said nothing more.
Crocodile placed Yoru's bounty poster on the table.
On the other side, Ye Yu and his group were traveling through the desert.
Miss Valentine, who possessed the Lightness Fruit, reduced her weight to almost zero. She tied a thin rope to the hem of Yoru's clothes and let Yoru carry her. She held an umbrella to shade both Yoru and herself from the sun.
The group rode on camels, with Miss Valentine hovering around Ye Yu, watching as Ye Yu didn't break a sweat under the scorching sun.
And they didn't look tanned at all.
She was surprised, because even when she was floating in the air, she couldn't stand it with a parasol.
She had to wear a white blouse; she had simply lost weight, but it didn't shield her from the sun.
But even though Ye Yu wasn't wearing a robe, he didn't sweat at all, and the sunlight didn't tan his skin.
Miss Valentine was very curious, so she leaned close to Yoru's ear and asked, "Boss, what kind of Devil Fruit user are you?"
