Chapter 71: Chapter 71 Battle In The Rainfield
"You hope no one dies in this fight."
"The nation, and all of us."
"Our enemy is the Shichibukai. It's obviously a riot war involving millions of people, but you still think that everyone will be safe. Don't you think it's too naive?"
The originally naive Luffy changed his mind this time and asked Vivi.
"Speaking of Luffy, why don't you give some thought to Vivi's mood?" Nami wanted to persuade her, but was stopped by Sanji.
"Miss Nami, wait."
Xu Cang remained silent. He knew that Luffy and Vivi had to convince each other, and his opinion was the same as Luffy's.
"What's wrong? I don't want anyone to die, what's wrong?" Vivi didn't compromise, she got excited and questioned Luffy.
"Everyone is mortal," Luffy said expressionlessly.
Vivi slapped Luffy away and said: "Shut up! Don't say such things! If you say it again, I won't forgive you! Aren't we just trying to prevent this from happening now?"
"It's obviously not the fault of the rebel army, the king's army or the citizens of this country. Why does someone have to die? It's obviously Crocodile's fault!" What Vivi said was not wrong.
At this time, Luffy stood up and struck with a backhand: "Then why did you risk your life?"
"If you look at this country, you will know what you should do most. Your life is not enough to gamble!" Luffy said while being beaten.
"Then what should I bet on? I have no other capital to gamble with." Vivi suddenly calmed down, looking extremely sad.
At this time, Luffy shouted: "At least put our lives on the line?! Aren't we partners?"
Vivi burst into tears instantly.
After Xu Cang read all the developments of the story, Luffy went around in a big circle, just wanting to tell Vivi.
"Don't forget the power of partners."
Vivi never thought about defeating Crocodile directly, because she knew how powerful Crocodile was, and she didn't want anyone to die because of it, so she would not push Xu Cang and others to die there.
Luffy made such a fuss, Vivi was completely moved in her heart, and Xu Cang could also feel Luffy's personality charm from it.
This kind of appeal made Xu Cang understand once again that there was something more important than strength.
Vivi burst into tears, while Luffy put on his straw hat and asked: "Tell me, where is Crocodile!?"
At this moment, Vivi had already made up her mind to use the power of her friends to fight off Crocodile.
"Everyone... Vivi looked at her friends and said, "Luffy and Xu Cang are right. I have made up my mind. Let's go to Crocodile. "
"Indeed, that's the nearest shortcut." Nami agreed.
"In other words, there is no need to take such troublesome detours." Zoro's understanding is still very strong.
"So, where is that b*****d Crocodile?" Sanji asked.
Immediately afterwards, Vivi unfolded the map of the Alabasta Kingdom that she carried with her.
"This is the royal capital of Albana where my father rules. The rebels are planning to attack Albana here."
"That means we have to defeat Crocodile before then." Sanji said.
"The location of Crocodile is here, the Rain Land." Vivi explained again.
"Rainland?" Usopp repeated curiously.
"It only takes a day's walk north from here to get there." Vivi said.
"Okay, then let's set off! Defeat Crocodile together!" After Xu Cang finished speaking, everyone headed north again.
On the way, everyone chatted about the Rain Land and Crocodile. After walking for about a day, we finally arrived at the Rain Land.
Far to the north, there is a large city. This city feels different from before.
"The one in front should be Yudi, right?" Xu Cang asked.
"Yes, you can already see it." Vivi said.
"We're here!" Usopp also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay! Let's go and fight Crocodile!" Luffy said with great enthusiasm.
"By the way, didn't Baroque Works notice that we came here?" Zoro asked.
"I'm afraid they already know. We have also met Mr. 2le. First of all, it is right to treat us as exposed." Nami said.
"What does this mean?" Luffy asked slowly.
"That means we can't move freely in the rain. If we are discovered by them, won't Crocodile be able to use all methods to deal with us?" Usopp was also speechless to Luffy, asking a random question. It takes a long time to explain.
Xu Cang said: "As expected, Crocodile is now focusing on inciting war. We should be just little mice in his eyes. I think there is no need for us to hide our identities and just be tough. "
"However, don't forget that Marine has been chasing us. That Smoker Captain must be waiting for us in the rain."
Xu Cang's words made the friends' heads grow bigger, but what Xu Cang said was not bad. Smoker, the smoke man, was already waiting for everyone in a nearby restaurant.
"No way? Those guys are here again, they are really annoying!" Everyone was very disgusted with Marine.
"How should we avoid being discovered by them?" Everyone was still discussing here, but found that Luffy and Usopp had disappeared.
"Where are they?" Xu Cang asked awkwardly.
"Going to buy water." Nami said.
"It's over... let's hide quickly, these two guys will definitely cause trouble again." Xu Cang's guess was successful again.
Luffy and Usopp bumped into Smoke Man and Dusky in the restaurant, and then they ran out and were chased by Marine.
The most critical thing is that Luffy and Usopp both ran towards their partners, causing everyone to be basically exposed.
At the same time, the agents of the Baroque Working Group in the entire rainland had naturally discovered the traces of everyone.
"I said! We have been discovered! Why not just run in the direction of Crocodile?!" Xu Cang suggested.
"Yes! Let's just go and defeat him!" Luffy also agreed.
"You can see there is a building with a crocodile roof! That is the casino run by Crocodile, Rain Banquet." Vivi pointed to the very impressive building in front of her and said.
"Is that so? Crocodile is right there!" Luffy then speeded up with Xu Cang.
In order to distract Marine, the partners chose to escape separately. Xu Cang was unlucky and escaped Marine, but was surrounded by agents of Baroque Works and millions of elders.
"It's really embarrassing... I have to deal with you first." Xu Cang looked at the enemy in front of him, his eyes narrowed, his body shook, and he disappeared in an instant.
