Chapter 397: I asked you to say goodbye but you kidnapped someone for me?
In fact, there is nothing to worry about. Weiwei is not a weak little girl. I just hope that when Cobra finds that his daughter's appetite has increased several times after returning, she will not come to trouble him.
After leaving Yuba, everyone boarded the Amber and sailed downstream. Vivi told everyone about the past of the Shasha Group. They even had a secret base, but Vivi was only willing to tell Wendy and Perona the exact location, and solemnly asked them to keep it a secret.
In the following time, everyone visited several other cities in Alabasta one after another. They stayed for a few days in interesting places and just ate in ordinary places.
Of course, I have not given up on morning and evening exercises every day. This is a must.
Zhang Da is not confident enough in his own strength. He has often thought recently that if he were to face Crocodile alone, he could only pretend to be weak and then find an opportunity to give him a hard blow.
Otherwise, judging from the ability shown by Crocodile, as long as Crocodile plays more steadily, there is a great possibility that he will be defeated.
Especially the sand and dust field that covered a very large area. Zhang Da couldn't think of how to deal with it for a while, so he had to speed up the training of his perception ability.
Eating, drinking, playing, exercising, and capturing some of Baroque's remnants along the way, a month passed quickly.
During this month's journey, Vivi was very "obedient" and did not use herself as bait. She would occasionally sneak out to buy things, and then Wendy and Perona would quietly follow her out. After they were out for a while, Xia Lulu would realize that the children were missing and then report it to Uncle Long.
By the time Uncle Long found them, there were usually a few guys with bad intentions lying there. Sometimes the fight hadn't started yet, and Uncle Long would decide whether to perform a one-on-ten show or reward them with a few dragon blasts, depending on the dangerousness of the weapons in their hands.
At the beginning, Bell would often come over, hover around and then come down to have a cup of tea, but later he came less often. He wanted to devote more time to training because Bell sadly discovered that the princess' fighting ability might be better than his.
A good devil fruit is so unreasonable that it can give a person a power that ordinary people can't reach. Bell recalled that he was easily knocked down by Mr. 1, and silently increased his training. He didn't want to encounter a strong enemy in the future. As a guard, he would need the protection of the princess instead.
Thanks to the Amber Tour Group, Alabasta's port city of Nahana and oasis city of Elmaru have suffered many pirate attacks in the past month.
Since Crocodile, who was originally stationed here, is gone, many pirates naturally regard Alabasta as an easy target for bullying - how can a great country have any fighting power when it is wreaked havoc by a mere Shichibukai?
However, they never expected that this was a country with hundreds of thousands of standing troops. Maybe it was meaningless to face someone of Crocodile's level, but it would be no problem to deal with ordinary pirates.
Although there were some casualties in the battle, the soldiers did not retreat. It was their responsibility to risk their lives to protect the country. From then on, the hero of Alabasta was no longer Crocodile, but the brave soldiers.
In addition to the pirates who come to plunder wealth, there is also a group of pirates who come for fame.
There are always a group of people in the world who don't know themselves well. They always think that the strong people promoted in newspapers are just so-so. They sneer at the achievements of those celebrities and always think that those celebrities have never failed because they have not met themselves.
So they came, to defeat the Amber Tour Group and become famous on the sea!
Then they knelt down, and couldn't even pass the level with Falcon Bell and Jackal Jakka.
Thanks to the Amber Travel Group, Bell and Gaka have experienced many dangerous battles recently, and their strength has been greatly improved.
When accompanying Wendy to rescue the two of them, Zhang Da even suspected that the reason why these two people were not very noticeable in the original work was because they were always robbed of monsters by Crocodile and therefore could not develop.
"Ahem..." Bell, who was out of danger, looked at Zhang Tatsuya excitedly, "Mr. Tatsuya, I think I have some experience of the power called domineering that you mentioned!"
"So fast?" Zhang Da was also a little surprised. He should have talked with Bell about his experience with Armament Haki half a month ago - he guaranteed that they were all his own experiences. Although there were some overlaps with what the Navy gave, it could only be said that great minds think alike.
I didn't expect Bell to understand it so quickly.
"At that time, I thought I had one foot in heaven..." Bell raised one hand, recalling the feeling at that time, "But when the enemy was about to give me the final blow, I crushed his long sword with my bare hands! And then, I finally defeated him!"
It is gained between life and death, which seems reasonable. It seems that the pirates in the New World also mastered Haki in battles of death.
There is great terror between life and death. Some people only care about fear, while others are determined to capture the fleeting life. This kind of experience is played by people like Sauron who are not afraid of death. Zhang Da is not envious at all. It is best to learn skills in peace.
"Congratulations. Remember that feeling and practice more. You should be able to do it quickly." Zhang Da also suggested, "You can practice by hitting Weiwei's head. When you can hit her at will, you will become stronger!"
"Please don't make such a joke..." Bell made a bitter face. He had slapped the princess in anger and felt guilty for a long time. He was also hit on the head. Bell was afraid that Ikalem would blow his head off first, and even the armed color could not protect him!
When Bale and Gaka's injuries were almost healed, Zhang Da also went to see the king: "Thank you for disturbing us during this period. It's almost time for us to leave."
"Is it so urgent?" Cobra was a little reluctant. He originally thought that the Amber Tour Group was only good at fighting, but after a long time he found that these people were all talented.
Zhang Daye, Rui Mengmeng, Ye Yan and Cheng Long all come from modern society. Although they may not understand specific government affairs, they can all give some interesting suggestions on how to govern a city. Even though one of them, Ye Yan, is a poor student, his vision and intelligence are real, and he often speaks to the point.
Cobra felt that each of these people had good insights and were more than qualified to be a minister under him.
The one called Altria was amazing. After a while of chatting, Cobra actually thought that this young female knight might have really been a king! But being a king at this age is too absurd!
Vivi has learned a lot from them these days, which makes Cobra very happy. He now hopes that the Amber Tour Group will simply disband and stay in Alabasta.
"We still have our journey to go." Zhang Da also smiled, "Maybe we will come here to rest when we are tired of playing. Please don't mind if you do that."
In fact, they have already tried all the special delicacies of Alabasta, and have also harmed many special animals. Only the sea cats are a "protected animal" and are difficult to harm.
In addition, a few days ago, a Kung Fu manatee attacked Tom after being provoked by Tom on the coast, and then all the Kung Fu manatees were chased to the bottom of the sea by Tom and beaten up.
Since Kung Fu manatees will become Tom's disciples after losing a fight, now all the manatees are Tom's disciples, so no one can eat them.
It's quite funny to see Tom imitating Uncle Long and practicing boxing with a group of Kung Fu manatees on the beach, especially when all the manatees have a big red envelope on their heads.
"I see. You are all welcome at any time in Alabasta." Cobra looked in a certain direction in the palace. "I'm afraid Vivi will be sad for a while."
"They should have said goodbye, right?" Zhang Da had also asked Perona and Wendy to talk to Vivi alone.
Cobra suddenly had a bad feeling and decided to keep a close eye on Vivi when they set sail.
In fact, the preparations for sailing were already made yesterday. The food suitable for carrying had already been researched in the past few days, and we just need to buy it according to the planned list.
In fact, when Vivi saw them purchasing these things, she already had a premonition, but she was still very sad at the moment of parting, and when her attempt to keep them failed, she locked herself in the room angrily.
After knocking on the door in turn without success, everyone had no choice but to sail away from the port with the farewell of the king, Ikalem and others.
Cobra's eyelids twitched as he watched the ship gradually disappear into the distance. He said, "Ikalem, contact Tiragotha and ask her to see if Weiwei is still in the room. There is a spare key under the flowerpot on the second window sill of my room."
"You mean... ahem, umm~" Ikalem thought of something and said in shock, "No way?"
"If it were someone else, they might not dare, but Weiwei..." Cobra pinched his temple and said with a headache, "Anyway, let her go and take a look first. Bell, you chase after her immediately!"
"Yes!" Bell immediately spread his wings and flew out.
After Ikalem finished the call, he said with a sad face: "It's terrible. There is only a pillow stuffed in the quilt on the princess' bed, and there is a hole in the ground under the bed. Judging from the little sand left in the hole, it is most likely made by a supernatural power..."
"As expected, is this how the ability of the Sand-Sand Fruit is used?" Cobra smiled bitterly. Mr. Tatsuya once said that this ability could help dig a well, and now he believed it. If Crocodile knew that his ability was used in such a place... I hope he would be smiling in his grave.
…
On the other side, the Amber slowly sailed out of the Santo River and into the sea. The long-lost sea breeze blew on the body, and it seemed to blow away the summer heat of Alabasta in an instant.
Everyone has recovered and resumed their exercise.
Perona actually did push-ups very diligently, doing hundreds of them in a row without complaining about the pain or tiredness.
Zhang Da also looked at her and said helplessly, "Have you had enough fun?"
Perona tilted her head and looked at Zhang Daya in confusion, as if she had no idea what he was talking about.
Zhang Daye gathered his true energy and punched her on the head. With a puff, Perona split into three negative ghosts and slowly disappeared.
"Why did you find out? You look exactly like me!" Perona's voice came from the cabin, and the real Perona came out with a little cream and cake crumbs stuck on the corners of her mouth. It was obvious that she had been hiding in the cabin and eating secretly.
"Your acting is terrible. How could you be so lazy and do more than a hundred push-ups in one go? And you even came in front of me to perform." Zhang Da also tapped her forehead. "Did you develop this ghost clone just to slack off under my nose?"
"If it wasn't for laziness, why would I work so hard these days..." Perona muttered softly.
Just as Zhang Da was about to say something else, Jackie Chan's scream came from the cabin again: "Weiwei! Kalu! Why are you here!"
"No way?" Everyone on the deck looked at each other, only Perona and Wendy looked guilty.
After a while, Jackie Chan held Weiwei's collar with one hand and Kalu's neck meat with the other hand - I don't know why the neck meat of a running duck can have the same effect as that of a cat.
“Hehe…” Weiwei tried to lift her little face and smiled shyly, “Tatsuya-nii-san, and everyone, I sneaked out!”
"Quack!" Kalu raised his wings with an effort to respond.
Rui Mengmeng was shocked for a moment and asked, "If you kidnap a princess, you will be wanted, right?"
Shark Chili said: "Most likely, this is a big surprise."
"Eh? No way!" Weiwei waved her hands anxiously, "I'll use Den Den Mushi to contact my father when we're a little further away!"
Jackie Chan said seriously: "That won't work either. Your father will be very worried."
"What's the big deal about just going on a trip for a while? Didn't you agree before that I can go with everyone else?" Weiwei clasped her hands together and looked at Jackie Chan with her big eyes unblinking, "Please, Uncle Long!"
Unfortunately, Uncle Long was already extremely resistant to the little girl's cuteness, and he refused without hesitation: "No, that was in Alabasta before, and now we are going to a very far place, and we don't know when we will be back. Tatsuya, let's turn around?"
Weiwei pleaded, "No! I finally got out!"
"That's right." Perona looked at Zhang Tatsuya cautiously and said what he often said. "Since you're here..."
Wendy whispered, "Yes, yes, Tatsuya-nii-nii, we can't bear to part with Vivi either."
Zhang Da also gave each of them a knife blow, feeling angry and amused at the same time: "So this was planned by you two, right? I told you to say goodbye properly and you actually kidnapped the person back?"
Wendy and Perona cried out in pain, squatted down, holding their heads, and looked at him pitifully.
Zhang Daye's resistance was obviously not full, so he chose to change the subject strategically: "Altria, didn't you notice that the two of them sneaked onto the ship?"
