Chapter 42: Everyone on the road
Rapeseed is a port city rich in perfume and is of great significance to Alabastan. Even now, when the country is extremely turbulent, it still seems very prosperous.
Rocky and his group docked in the harbor to the west.
In order to avoid being eye-catching, the people on the ship changed into local costumes, and then began to discuss the next arrangement. Vivi was preparing to go to the rebel base, Uba, to meet their leader Kosha, and inform him of Clockdal's conspiracy, including the methods he used by Robin: using dancing powder to create drought and blame the king, inciting people's hearts and accelerating the decline of the town, and let members of the work club pretend to be the king's army for evil...
Weiwei believes that as long as Kou Sha knows the truth, he can stop this massive rebellion.
But Roach is not optimistic about her claim.
Because Vivi is the princess of the kingdom, even if her childhood companion Kou Sha is willing to believe her words, it is impossible to convince other backbones of the rebel army. These people participated in the rebellion mainly out of hatred for the king, not just loyalty to Kou Sha. They would never really cease fire just because Kou Sha wanted to cease fire. Doing so would at most delay the date of war.
The wheel of war will not stop because of the will of one or two people.
What's more, according to Roche's memory of the original work, the base of the rebel army had been transferred to Catleya, which was very close to the king's capital where the king was. They would launch a general attack on the capital in a short period of time.
If Vivi went to Youba, she wouldn't have seen Kosha at all.
But Roche is not going to remind Vivi.
Clockdal is not an enemy that is easy to provoke. Roche is not sure of winning 100%. He took the risk to press Bao on Vivi, of course not to assist her wholeheartedly to become a hero in the kingdom.
That is not entirely in his interest.
Let the situation continue to develop in a more dangerous direction. The most urgent task is to solve the sand crocodile. A country can tolerate two heroes, but it will definitely not tolerate two ambitious people.
Clockdal's base camp is in the rainy land, and the distance is very close to Uba.
Therefore, Roach is happy to act according to Vivi’s current arrangement.
Then he arranged for his three crew members to stay on the Melis and stared at the MR.3, Miss. Golden Week, who was soaked in the water tank, and would rather continue to stay on the ship as a salted fish. Considering that Nami and Usopp were both good-minded and Guina's force was strong enough that they should not capsize in the gutter, Roche simply left Miss. Golden Week and the other two prisoners on the ship.
Then he handed Robin a very important task:
"The information you join us should not be leaked yet, so now we can do something evil." Roach whispered to her: "With your wisdom, you should be able to think of an excuse to explain the disappearance during this period. I hope you will return to Clockdal and get a cooperating with you in the critical moment."
"Are you not afraid that I will betray you? Tell him all your plans?"
"You are a smart man, how could you do this?" Roach smiled: "The most advantageous way for you is to step on two boats, follow Clockdal to advance his plan, go to the royal mausoleum to see the so-called historical text. If everything is true as I said, then completely turn to me against Clockdal, this will be perfectly in your interests, so you will not put me to death in advance."
"It seems that we are indeed a natural partner."
Robin smiled and shook his head: "I have accepted your mission. Anyway, I didn't plan to cooperate with him until the last moment."
Then she quickly left.
After watching Robin's back gradually fade away, Rochi decided to go on the road alone with Vivi. Although Guina and Nami were very dissatisfied with his arrangement, they did not forcibly disobey his captain's orders.
Before leaving, Vivi gave the fast-running duck Karu a task.
She wrote a letter revealing Clockdal's conspiracy with her, and asked Karu to rush to the king as quickly as possible to hand it over to the king, so as not to keep the king's army in the dark and thought that the sand crocodile was a people's hero who was beneficial to the country.
Just as they left, a small thing happened to the northern port of rapeseed flowers.
After Tina's warship was anchored here, it soon encountered a group of pirates. Tina, as the navy, naturally would not stand by and lead the navy to arrest all these people. After returning to the ship, she found that the MR.11 she had caught had escaped while the chaos was in the chaos.
The remaining naval crew was very ashamed, but Tina did not blame them too much.
"Tina has a headache."
After lit a cigarette, Tina frowned. Her purpose was to investigate the criminal group behind MR.11, but the news might be leaked immediately when the prisoners were lost. She is obviously in a very passive position now.
Fortunately, after these days of torture, she had pried out something from MR.11's mouth.
Although they are not sure about the true face of the envoy behind the scenes, their base camp is in the rain.
The final battle is called the Ideal Township Plan.
"Then let's go to the rainy field." Tina made a decisive decision: "We will do good things to the end. Since we have discovered the existence of this criminal organization, we must investigate and uproot it!"
Her navy quickly took the order.
These subordinates include Zanggao, the deputy captain of the former Black Cat Pirates, and Fenbudi, who was beaten by Sanji. After a coincidence, they joined Tina's command and were promoted and reused because of their outstanding strength.
They all hope to perform well in this action.
But the Navy's actions were soon discovered by Clockdal, because the first thing MR.11 did after escaping was to report, mentioning that a navy was pursuing the organization, and also said that the other party had already known that the work club's base was in the rain.
"Did the Navy actually intervene at this time?..."
Klokdal was not very happy when he learned the news, but he didn't take this matter too much. With his strength to fight against a city by himself, the opponent's only one warship was not enough to bother him, but in order to ensure the smooth progress of the plan, it is still necessary to get rid of them as soon as possible.
Sure enough, can you do it yourself?
Moreover, according to the latest report from MR.1, Robin's whereabouts were never found. It is said that with her strength, it is impossible for someone to be taken away silently. Clockdal had to consider the possibility that she had already rebelled, so...
While solving that naval force, speed up the planning progress.
When Clockdal went out, he made up his mind to do so—
