early morning

alabaster

Rapeseed flowers in the port city!

A huge yacht slowly sailed into this port!

If it were normal, such a ship entering the port would cause some exclamation and commotion, and there would also be many onlookers!

But today is different. Early in the morning, under the orders of Cobra, Icarim came with his guards to greet Arthur, and blocked the port to avoid these onlookers and riots!

"call---"

Arthur looked at the desert city in the distance and took a deep breath. Although he didn't sweat, he couldn't help but feel a little stuffy.

Behind him, a group of curious fishmen and mermaids were standing on the deck looking into the distance.

"Is this the desert?"

"This is my first time seeing you!"

“It’s so hot here!

"Yes, I want to sweat just standing there!"

"No, I have to swim twice in the swimming pool, otherwise it will be too hot!"

...

The fishmen and mermaids looked at the desert in the distance and talked about it!

"Shura, Milo, and Brian, please come up with me later, and the others will keep watch here!" Arthur turned his head and ordered to the people behind him.

He currently has a boat of fish and mermaids on board. If he doesn't leave some people to guard him, someone might take the risk!

After hearing Arthur's words, Shura was about to agree, but at this time, he felt a familiar sharp gaze looking at him!

Someone is watching him!

He reacted instantly.

Then, after carefully scanning the surrounding area, he finally found a swordsman in black trench coat not far from the port, carrying a long sword on his back and having eyes like an eagle, sitting in a barbecue shop drinking!

"Your Majesty, I met an old friend and I want to meet him!" Shura's eyes narrowed slightly and he said with a smile.

"oh!?"

Arthur glanced around curiously, and also discovered the swordsman in black trench coat!

Hawkeye!?

Suddenly, he suddenly realized!

"Go!" Arthur smiled and waved his hand, then changed his voice and said to the others, "Then Milo and Brian can accompany me, and the others will watch the boat!"

"Yes!" Everyone agreed in unison.

Afterwards, Arthur took Milo and Brian off the boat.

"Your Majesty Arthur!" Icarim saluted and said respectfully.

"Let's go!" Arthur said seriously.

"Okay!" Icarim nodded, then made a gesture of invitation and said, "Your Majesty Arthur, please!"

"Yes!" Arthur nodded and walked directly over with Milo and Brian.

Upon seeing this, Ikarem and his guards immediately followed him. Then, with a few quick steps, he walked in front of Arthur and led Arthur the way!

After that, Shura, who was still on the boat, bent his legs, climbed on board with all his strength, jumped off the boat, and walked towards the swordsman in black windbreaker. After a while, the two of them were sitting in a barbecue shop, drinking wine and chatting.

sky.

"Is that your king?" Hawkeye looked at the back of Arthur and his group as they left, and couldn't help but ask.

"Yes!" Shura smiled and nodded,

"He is very strong!" Hawkeye said solemnly, "I feel a fatal danger in him, as if he is a powerful thunder that can kill me at any time!"

After thinking for a while, Hawkeye added, "I really want to have a battle with him!"

"Fight!?" Shura smiled and said, "I think you should beat me first before we talk. If you really fight with His Majesty, you will be beaten to death!"

"Then... let's defeat you first!" Eagle Eyes looked at Shura with burning eyes, boundless fighting spirit rising from his body and rushing towards Shura.

"Just fight, whoever is afraid of whom!" Feeling the fighting spirit of Hawkeye, Shura's eyes flickered, and an extreme fighting spirit surged from his body!

But then, his voice changed and he said, "But now I'd better drink first, and then fight again after finishing the wine and dinner!"

"Okay!" Hawkeye smiled boldly, picked up a large wine bowl, and raised it in front of Shura.

"!"

Shura also picked up a large wine bowl and touched it with Hawkeye's wine bowl, then he smiled boldly and said, "Now, drink!"

"Drink!" Hawkeye said with a smile.

the other side.

Under the leadership of Ikarim, Arthur passed through the port city of Rapeseed Flowers and arrived outside the Rapeseed Flowers.

At this time, there was an extremely huge crab waiting for them here!

"Your Majesty Arthur, because the capital is a little far away from here, we will use this crab to transport us there next!" Ikarem said solemnly.

"This is Alabasta's specialty... moving crab?" Arthur asked hesitantly.

He remembered that there seemed to be an episode in the anime where Luffy and others sat on this kind of crab!

"Arthur is really well-informed!" Ikarem praised and introduced, "This is the moving crab. Because it grows in the desert, it is different from other crabs and is afraid of water and can only walk in the desert!

"

"And because it is huge and can carry a lot of goods, it is often used by people to move, so it is called moving crab! This kind of creature is relatively rare in our kingdom! If your Majesty Arthur likes it, you can take it with you when you leave.

One goes back!"

"Thank you in advance!" Looking at the crab in front of him, Arthur also liked it a little, so he accepted it directly without being polite!

"Your Majesty Arthur, you don't have to be polite!" Ikarem smiled, then made a gesture of invitation and said, "Your Majesty Arthur, please serve crabs!"

Arthur nodded, took two steps, stepped on the stairs next to the crab, and stepped up!

Above the crab is an artificial platform. There is a huge sofa and table on the platform. There are also some fruits with Alabasta characteristics on the table. On the side are two maids wearing Alabasta costumes.

With.

It can be seen that Alabasta welcomes him very much, and even such small things are arranged properly!

After everyone in the group came up, the Moving Crab began to take action!

It walked on a few crab legs and walked towards the desert at a fast and steady speed.

Along the way.

The sky full of yellow sand, the occasional group of rocks, the lonely green cactus, Alabasta’s characteristic creatures, the deceitful bird that can deceive people, and the Sundora lizard, the top player in the Alabasta desert’s food chain, are all there one by one.

Showed it in front of Arthur.

With the extremely fast speed of moving crabs, in about half a day, by noon, the group finally arrived at Albana, the capital of Alabasta!

"Da da da!"

As soon as they arrived here, a group of soldiers wearing Alabasta military uniforms trotted out from the city gate in unison, and then lined up on both sides in an orderly manner!

"Welcome to your Majesty Arthur!" the soldiers shouted in unison.

Under the respectful greetings of the soldiers, Arthur and his party entered Albana directly on moving crabs and headed towards the palace!

And at the same time.

Another ship came into Rapeseed Port.

This time it's a pirate ship!

The flag hanging on the pirate ship depicts a winged skull with two swords crossed behind it.

Standing on the bow of the boat was a two-meter-five-meter-tall young man with a slicked back hair, no eyebrows, an earring in his right ear, smoking a cigar, wearing a black fur coat and an orange plaid long-sleeved shirt underneath the fur coat.
