[Monkey D. Luffy: "Huh~? We over there actually got bounties too.....!"]
[Nami: "It seems it's only me, you, and Zoro~~~"]
[Roronoa Zoro: "Is it that scumbag from the school? Not distinguishing right from wrong, truly a bastard!!"]
[Luffy: "Hey! Watch your words, kid! Obviously, I over there didn't know what happened in the Tin-Plate Kingdom either!! I was just following the rules!!"]
[Koby: "Hmph..... They didn't want to be pirates, but you guys directly slapped the pirate hat on them, and then preached justice with a straight face. Aren't you afraid of making people laugh their heads off~~~?"]
[Sengoku: "Shut your stinking mouth!!!"]
["Boss, how much?"]
[Nami visually estimated the thickness of the newspapers and mentally calculated the price of these papers~~~]
[If the boss dared to overcharge, Nami had already decided to just not buy them and let him work for nothing!!!]
[Looking at Nami's sweet and lovely smile, the boss's mouth twitched uncontrollably twice, and cold sweat couldn't help but break out on his forehead~~~]
[It was.....]
[Just like in stories, some people look like lovely young girls on the surface, but underneath they are she-devils who kill without blinking an eye!!]
["N-no... no charge.....!"]
[Between money and life, the boss unhesitatingly chose the latter~~~]
["What???"]
[Nami's tangerine-colored eyes instantly widened, filled with disbelief!!!]
[She had already mentally prepared for the boss to quote a "black price," but in the end..... no charge???]
[This huge reversal directly dumbfounded Nami~~~]
[In fact, Nami's astonished expression was also very charming, but at this moment..... Nami's dazed look, in the eyes of the newspaper office owner, was incomparably terrifying!!!!]
[Crap!! --]
[My attitude before and after changed too drastically. What if I accidentally touched a nerve of this murderous she-devil? Wouldn't that be seeking death???]
[He quickly tried to explain: "Ah!! Uhm..... our store is having an anniversary celebration, and we randomly select one lucky customer for a free order!"]
["Free order!!!"]
[Hearing this, Nami was no longer sleepy~~~]
[She pointed to the shelves over there: "Since it's a free order, can I also get a free set of nautical charts and island encyclopedias from over there?"]
[Hmph~~~~]
[The boss gritted his teeth: "You can!"]
["Wow! Boss, you're such a good person! You'll definitely make a fortune!!"]
[Receiving the newspapers and a set of nautical charts and island encyclopedias, Nami's eyes curved into crescent moons from smiling~~~]
[Watching the two leave, the newspaper office owner let out a long, long sigh of relief~~~⁶⁶³]
[He looked at the bounty poster in his hand, secretly rejoicing that this bounty order had arrived in time. Otherwise, he might have already become a dismembered corpse!!!]
["Tony, I'm adding a chicken leg to your dinner tonight!"]
["Ah! Thank you, boss!!"]
[--]
[The Log Pose needs ten days to fully record the magnetic field here, so for these ten days, Luffy and his crew cannot set sail.]
[Alabasta has a hot desert climate. Since Luffy and his crew have docked, they will definitely move around freely in this city during this time!]
[After coming out of the newspaper office, Luffy and Nami took Chopper to a clothing store~~~]
[Nami tried on an outfit that looked like a belly dancer's costume. After coming out of the fitting room, with her slender hands on her waist, she twirled twice in front of Luffy: "Look! Doesn't this outfit look good?"]
[Luffy sat on a wooden stool eating an ice lolly, casually glancing at her: "It looks good, it looks good, but your belly is all exposed. You'll get sunburned if you go out, right~~~"]
["Oh right~~"]
[Hearing Luffy's words, Nami feigned sudden realization, then selected a bottle of sunscreen from the store and dabbed it in front of Luffy: "Hehe, look at this!"]
[Nami applied sunscreen to her shoulders and belly, then walked over to Luffy and stuffed the sunscreen into his hand.]
["I don't need it....."]
[Luffy tugged at his sun-proof cloak.]
["You little rascal, are you dumb~~~, she wants you to rub it on her lower back!"]
[The clothing store owner was a middle-aged woman. She held Chopper and gently stroked his fur while smiling at Luffy~~~]
[This little lady is so pretty, how did she end up with such a clueless partner!]
["Yeah, Luffy. I can't see my back, come help me~~~"]
[Nami turned around, presenting her lower back to Luffy.]
[Luffy paused slightly!]
["Oh, alright then~"]
[Luffy was sitting, and the height of his raised hand was just right for Nami's lower back.]
["Help me rub some on my front too, I'm afraid the sun protection isn't enough~~~"]
["Okay."]
[Vinsmoke Sanji: "Ahhh!!! That bastard Luffy over there!! He... he... he actually touched Nami-swan's waist!!! Ahhhhh!"]
[Seeing Luffy applying sunscreen for Nami in the video, Sanji was so jealous he was fuming from all seven orifices~~~]
[He wished he could immediately jump into the video and beat Luffy into a pig's head!!!]
[Roronoa Zoro: "Not just the waist, there's also the belly~~~"]
[(cbeg) Zoro deliberately fanned the flames.]
[Vinsmoke Sanji: "Ugh!! I can't accept it!! I can't accept it!!"]
[Nico Robin: "Ara ara~, Nami over there is actually so proactive towards Luffy~~~"]
[Usopp: "Haha, the most fun part is Chopper! Look at his stunned expression, it's too funny! ~~"]
[Boa Hancock: "Ahhh..... I also want Luffy-kun to help me apply sunscreen....."]
[After applying the sunscreen, Nami picked out a desert-specific sun-proof robe and put it on herself.]
[This way, like Luffy, only her face was exposed.]
[Luffy was puzzled: "Didn't you just apply sunscreen?"]
["Yeah, but I suddenly realized your sun-proof robe is very practical, so I want to buy one too!"]
[Nami went to the counter and paid~~~]
[Watching Nami walk towards the door, Luffy scratched his head in bewilderment and muttered to himself: "Then wasn't I rubbing for half a day for nothing.....?"]
["Still not happy about getting something for free? Why are you such a kid!"]
[The store owner lady rolled her eyes at Luffy, then stuffed Chopper into his hands, "She's already gone far, why aren't you chasing after her!"]
[Luffy didn't understand the store owner lady's meaning, but he still hurried out the door to catch up~~~]
[Arriving outside, Luffy saw someone selling coconuts by the roadside~~~]
["Wait for me, I'll go buy two iced coconuts!"]
[Saying this, Luffy rushed over.]
[Seeing Luffy return with two coconuts with straws already inserted, Nami was very happy inside~~~]
[Knowing to proactively buy coconuts for a girl to cool down, it seems Luffy is finally starting to get a clue...]
[Nami's heart blossomed with joy~~~]
[However, the happy curve of her lips had just begun to rise when it instantly froze on her face.....]
[Luffy bit onto two straws, took a big gulp: "Ah..... So refreshing!"]
[Gol D. Roger: "Hahahaha!!! This Luffy kid is too hilarious!!! Will he ever be able to find a woman like this?!!"]
[Shakky: "What a blockhead!"]
[Nico Robin: "Oh my~ Only on this point, both Luffys are exactly the same~"]
[Trafalgar Law: "Quick, look at Boss Nami's expression over there..... Pfft, I really can't hold it in, hahaha!!!"]
[Jewelry Bonney: "Poor Nami-san..... Oh my~~"]
[Nami's smile gradually transformed into a fanged, angry demon~~~~]
[She clenched both fists, "Idiot!!! Don't you know to buy one for me!!!"]
[Luffy paused, then immediately showed an apologetic hug: "Oops! Forgot~~~"]
["And me....." Chopper also pitifully raised his hand~~~]
["Clap!" Luffy stuffed the two coconuts in his hands into Nami's and Chopper's hands respectively. After a while, he came back holding five coconuts, bit onto five straws, and gulped them down! "So refreshing!!"]
[Roronoa Zoro: "This guy..., I'm starting to want to go over and beat him to death....."]
[Kizaru Polsino: "Haha!!"]
[Eustass Kid: "This guy is truly outrageous~~~~!!"]
["Ah!! Help!!!"]
["Quick, run!! Pirates are here!!"]
["Don't kill me, I'll give you all my money.....!"]
[...]
[Luffy's group of three were strolling down the street when they suddenly heard a clamor from up ahead~~~]
[They looked ahead and saw a group of strange-looking pirates brazenly robbing civilians of their money!!!]
[Some civilians were beaten to the ground, their money and valuables plundered by these villains~~~]
[There was even a young woman held at knifepoint by a pirate, clearly intending to abduct her~~~]
["It's pirates!!" Nami's anger instantly flared up~!!]
[As someone who had once been victimized, Nami deeply empathized with these civilians who had been tyrannized by pirates for so long!!!]
[Before, it was because she lacked strength, so she could only watch helplessly as Bell-mère and other villagers died before her eyes~~~]
[But now..... she has strength!!!]
[She absolutely cannot let this kind of thing happen right under her nose!!!]
[Just as Nami was about to make a move, suddenly.....]
[Hoo--]
[Wind suddenly rose from the ground.....]
[Sand and dust flew.....]
[When they saw this sudden sandstorm, the civilians who were originally in panic and despair suddenly stopped being flustered~~~]
["Lord Crocodile!!"]
[The girl held at knifepoint by the pirate instantly had tears welling up in her eyes, shouting excitedly~~~]
["Mr. Crocodile..... you've really come.....!!!"]
["Great!!! Lord Crocodile is here!! We're saved!!!"]
["A sandstorm rises... It's him!! It's Lord Crocodile!!"]
["Haha! We're saved!!!"]
[...]
[The civilians, who had been in despair, now raised their heads excitedly, looking around~~~]
["Crocodile?"]
[A tall pirate who looked like a pirate captain's face changed, "Could it be..... that Crocodile from the Seven Warlords of the Sea.....???"]
[Suddenly, he snapped his head up, looking at the round rooftop of the tallest building, his face paling in shock!!!]
[Luffy, Nami, and Chopper also looked over~~~]
[On that rooftop stood a man in a plaid shirt, wearing a black fur cloak on the outside~~~]
[He had a scar running from his left cheek across to his right, and instead of a hand at the end of his left arm, there was a golden hook!!]
[He looked down from above, and with the air of a king, he coldly shouted: "Shut up, trash!!! I'm not here to save you, I'm just here to take the heads of these few pirates!!"]
[Although he spoke with a tone that completely disregarded the civilians, when he opened his mouth, the clamor from the civilians below grew even louder!!!!]
["So cool....."]
["Lord Crocodile, you always rescue us from peril like this!!!"]
["Long live Crocodile!!!"]
["King of the Desert, Crocodile!!"]
["You are the guardian deity of our Alabasta Kingdom, Lord Crocodile!!!"]
[...]
[The cheers from the crowd below came wave after wave. Even if they saw the King, it's unlikely they would show such fervent enthusiasm!!!!]
[In their eyes, Crocodile was a proud man with a sharp tongue but a soft heart~~~]
[With him around, the Alabasta Kingdom has a clear sky!!!]
[Donquixote Doflamingo: "Fuffuffuffu....., Sand Crocodile, I didn't realize you used to be a kind-hearted brat????"]
[Sir Crocodile: "Trash! Are you this bored? Didn't you just see the truth on the white-bordered video screen!!"]
[Gecko Moria: "Kishishishi! If I hadn't seen the situation on the white-bordered video screen earlier, looking at the red-bordered video screen now, I'd really think Sand Crocodile was diligently fulfilling his duties as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea~~~"]
[Kaidou: "The model worker among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, kuahaha!!"]
[Seemingly enjoying this kind of cheering, Crocodile stood on the rooftop, stroking the golden hook in his hand, a playful smile on his face: "It doesn't matter what you call me, but..... as long as I am here, I will absolutely not allow pirates to run rampant in this country!!!"]
[As soon as these words came out, the civilians below instantly reached a climax~~~~~]
[Swoosh!! --]
[Crocodile leaped down from the rooftop!!!!]
["If you don't want to die, get on the ground!! --"]
[While in mid-air, Crocodile coldly shouted~~~]
[Those civilians seemed very obedient, immediately all prostrating themselves on the ground!!!]
[Apart from Luffy and Nami, only that group of pirates was still standing!!]
[They saw Crocodile descending directly towards their position, and a fierce look instantly appeared on each of their faces!!!]
["Damn it! Isn't he just one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea? What's there to be afraid of!!!"]
["Let's fight him!!!"]
["As long as we kill him!!! This city will be ours for the taking!!!"]
[This group of pirates also had a surge of desperate courage. Since they couldn't escape, then draw your swords!!! --]
[Clang! Clang! Clang!!! ...]
[A dozen or so weapons simultaneously plunged into Crocodile's body, completely impaling him!!!]
["Hahaha!!! Is this the legendary Seven Warlords of the Sea? Not so impressive after all!!!"]
[The tall pirate captain, seeing Crocodile impaled, instantly burst into wild laughter~~~]
[However, Crocodile glanced at him with contemptuous eyes and sneered faintly~~~]
[The next moment.....]
[A sandstorm suddenly erupted!! --]
[A sandstorm, suspended half a meter above the ground, instantly swept up this group of pirates and Luffy's group!!!]
[And because the civilians had prostrated themselves on the ground beforehand, they were not harmed by the sandstorm~~~]
[In the blink of an eye, the sandstorm stopped again!!!!]
[That group of arrogant pirates from just moments ago had all turned into dried-up wooden puppets, lying scattered in a heap in the sand~~~]
["Crocodile!!!"]
["Crocodile!!!"]
["Crocodile!!!"]
[...]
[Heart-stirring cheers, like a tsunami, resounded throughout this city~~~]
