Chapter 373: The alliance between King 7 Wuhai and the CP agency!
In fact, Crocodile had never thought about how to deal with Kobra and the Neferutali clan.
First of all, it was impossible for him to take action himself. After all, he didn't know much about the relationship between the Neferutali clan and Mariejoia before.
In the original storyline, Crocodile chose to train a 'black hand' to take the blame and kill the Neferutali clan for him.
And this 'black hand' is the rebel organization in Alabasta.
Originally, according to his plan, he didn't need to show up at all, he could just stay quietly behind the scenes.
Watching these rebels kill all the Neferutali clan, Crocodile then jumped out to 'rectify the chaos', suppress the rebels, and then inherit the rule as a national hero.
This plan went smoothly at first, until Crocodile met the Straw Hat Pirates.
After being beaten up by Luffy, the Son of Destiny who had unlocked the blood lock, he not only failed to become the King of Alabasta, but also went to Impel Down for further training.
And in this current time and space.
Crocodile has made two preparations. One is to continue to cultivate rebels. The current sources of funding for the rebel organizations in Alabasta are provided by Crocodile behind the scenes.
The other hand is to take advantage of the GM army.
If the rebels fail to live up to expectations, Crocodile will take action himself, do it more covertly, and then pour all the dirty water on the GM Army, an organization that is notorious for taking the blame.
This is also the reason why he used the name of GM Army to do some things secretly.
I just want to plant a seed so that when I use it, it won’t be awkward.
From Crocodile's point of view, no matter whether the Neferutali clan is finally destroyed in the hands of the rebels or the so-called 'GM army', as long as it has nothing to do with him on the surface, it will be fine.
Once this point is taken care of, once the deal is settled, he doesn't believe that Mary Joa will choose to fall out with him because of these dead people.
Even after he became the King of Alabasta, he no longer needed to look at Mary Joa's face.
But it is obvious that Crocodile does not know the true importance of the Neferutali clan to Mariejoia. At least when the blood factor technology has not fully reached the level required by Mariejoia, the Neferutali clan is still very precious. of.
What even Louis didn't know was that in the original story, even if the Straw Hat Pirates had not entered the scene, Kobra and Vivi would not have died at the hands of Crocodile.
Marigioa has already made relevant preparations and will take away Cobra and Vivi at the critical moment.
They are not as ignorant of the turbulent situation in Alabasta as they appear on the surface, and their indifferent attitude is just borrowing a knife to kill someone.
With Crocodile's sword, knock down the Alabasta crown from the heads of the Neferutali clan.
After Crocodile takes Alabasta, it won't be a big problem for Mariejoia to concoct Crocodile.
There are a hundred ways to deal with him.
"Hahahahaha, I have always thought that dealing with the Neferutali clan and their identity is a difficult problem that I have to face. But I didn't expect that this kind of problem that seems to be the most difficult to solve is actually the least need to worry about. Problem?" Crocodile said with an evil smile.
At the same time, he also felt some regret in his heart for not understanding and investigating the secret behind this earlier, otherwise he would not have used the name of GM Army to cause trouble.
Now it's only natural that bastards like Dorag and the others would go to Alabasta to cause trouble for him.
But then I thought about it, if he hadn't done this at the beginning, the situation might be different now.
Good or bad, you can't tell.
It seems there is no need to regret anything?
"Yes, as Lord Crocodile said, the identity of the Neferutali clan cannot be an obstacle to us." Spangdyne said softly.
"So according to the thoughts of the big shots in Mariejoia, they want to use my hand to get rid of the Neferutali clan, right?" Crocodile thought for a moment and then asked.
By now, he probably understood why Mary Joa wanted to find him. It had nothing to do with whether the owner of Alabasta should be changed or not. It was mainly a matter of the Neferutali family.
Due to many factors, Marie Joa was unable to deal with them. Just like he secretly cultivated rebels, he also needed a black hand to help the Holy Land deal with one of the twenty kings' descendants?
But Spangdine shook his head and said:
"On the surface, you only need to explain to the outside world that the Neferutali clan was destroyed in your hands. But in fact, the Neferutali clan must be escorted back to the Holy Land by me..."
"You don't mean to say that Mary Joa is waiting to take them back to the dragon people, right? Then wouldn't my situation be very embarrassing?" Crocodile glanced at him and said.
What is this?
Good guys, I, Crocodile, have been working hard to help you get rid of the Neferutali clan, but as soon as they came back, they transformed and became a Celestial Dragon. What should I do here?
Do you think they will retaliate against me?
"Please rest assured, Mr. Crocodile, this kind of thing will never happen..." Spangdyne said seriously.
"...Do you think there is any basis for mutual trust between us?" Crocodile frowned disdainfully and asked.
Just kidding, Crocodile would never believe such a verbal guarantee. Just as he would definitely get rid of the rebels when he had used up the rebels, there would definitely be follow-up arrangements on Mary Joa's side.
But that's just a matter of opinion, and when it comes to adversity, at least for now, we can still stay together.
"Although not, I am happy to build a foundation of trust between us." Spandaine smiled, and then waved to Fozzie 6-1F behind him.
Foz?6?1F immediately understood what was happening, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and handed it to Crocodile.
Crocodile glanced at Spangdyne and Foz 6 1f a little strangely. He didn't know what kind of medicine the two men were selling in their gourds, but then he picked up the document and read it.
"How can a fallen royal family who conspires with the evil GM army to subvert the authority of the world's government, even if he has the blood of twenty kings, become a new Celestial Dragon family?" Spangdyne said with an evil smile. .
Crocodile also quickly closed the document, which was only two or three pages long. It was obvious that this was the 'trust' that Spangdyne had brought to him.
The content in the document turned out to be "solid evidence" that some GM troops had colluded with the Neferutali family.
Of course, this is just a solid statement on the surface. As for whether there is any false accusation in it... In fact, Crocodile only took a few glances to understand that it was basically a false accusation.
For example, the Neferutali family funded the GM army to burn Mariejoia, providing the GM army with a certain amount of funds and Mariejoia's city defense blueprints.
This was so obvious that he was throwing dirty water. When Mariejoia was on fire, the noble Sir Crocodile was drinking tea with Cobra. He was very sure that Cobra did not do this.
But it doesn't matter anymore. As long as the Neferutali family falls, no one will uphold justice for them. This document with the official seal of Mary Joa is the most authoritative thing.
And although Crocodile doubted this, he didn't think in his heart that the Neferutali family would become the new Draco.
That's not realistic.
Marie Joa's power structure has long been finalized after hundreds of years. Now you have a new Draco family, how can that be a simple matter?
What's more, the hatred between the two parties is not small.
Therefore, Crocodile believed that even if Cobra was taken to Marigio, his end would not be very good, and he just wanted this document to give him peace of mind, as an insurance policy.
This can be considered the first step in building trust with Spangdine.
"Barely qualified." Crocodile commented, and then he looked at Spangdyne and said, "Then, after I finish helping Mariejoia with these dirty things, what is the reward I can get?"
"Speaking of which, Lord Crocodile has been sparing no effort to clear his identity in recent years. Although you are wearing the coat of a legal pirate, His Majesty Shichibukai, you haven't gone to sea for a long time to engage in pirate activities, right?
At the same time, you are still cracking down on pirates in Alabasta, so I want to confirm first, does Mr. Crocodile still have the will to continue to be a pirate? Spangdine asked softly.
Crocodile fell into silence after hearing this. After a while, he said: "If you have a choice, who would be willing to be a pirate?"
It sounds like he is saying in disguise that he will not be a pirate in the future.
But in fact, Crocodile was not telling the truth.
His ultimate goal in usurping Alabasta was nothing more than to gain Alabasta's huge military strength, as well as funds, resources, and possible ancient weapons.
After he had these, Crocodile felt that if he developed well, he could enter the new world again and defeat that old bastard Whitebeard.
At that time, he can use Alabasta as the basis to try to conquer the new world, and even the whole world.
The mere position of king cannot satisfy his ambition.
But there was no need for him to tell Spangdine all about these matters.
Spangdine glanced at Crocodile as if he was telling the truth, and then continued:
"Since you have this intention, Marie Joa promises that as long as you can seize the throne of Alabasta in a reasonable, legal and in line with public opinion, then the world's government will recognize your identity.
And it allows Alabasta to retain the corresponding rights and interests of the franchised countries. For example, within five years, there is no need to substantively turn over the heavenly gold. "
After a short pause, Spangdine added in a deep voice:
"This is the sincerity and leverage that Mary Gioia gave."
"Is there anything like this?" Crocodile held up the document and asked.
Spangdine smiled, waved his hands and said:
"How can such a transaction be recorded on paper?"
"That's really unsettling..." Crocodile murmured.
Spangdyne did not speak to answer the question, but just looked at Crocodile.
After a long time, Crocodile finally said:
"But it doesn't conflict with my purpose... Just let me trust you for once."
Spangdine still showed no surprise.
This is indeed not surprising. Even without Mary Joa's promise, wouldn't Crocodile take action against the Neferutali clan?
Wouldn't he want to seize the throne of Alabasta?
No, he will still do it.
So, from the start, the answer was obvious.
Now he is just asking for some more 'guarantees' and 'benefits' for himself after achieving his goal. If it can be implemented in the end, Crocodile will definitely make a profit.
But if he fails to implement it, he will not lose.
After all, Crocodile didn't expect to simply become the King of Alabasta!
"So, happy cooperation?" Spangdyne stood up and smiled at Crocodile. He was about to reach out and shake his hand, but suddenly realized something and took his hand back.
"My hook doesn't seem to be in line with Mr. Spangdyne's taste." Crocodile said with rare ridicule.
"No, no, no, I'm just afraid of turning into a mummy." Spangdine said with a smile.
"Huh ha ha ha... your attitude didn't make me think you were scared." Crocodile smiled, and then before Spangdine could speak, he responded:
"It's a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Spangdine."
After initially reaching an intention to cooperate, Spangdyne was in no hurry to leave.
On the contrary, the two sides had a more detailed discussion about their respective intelligence, and Robin also participated.
GM Army and Neferutali Clan…
The King's Shichibukai and the CP Agency...
