"bird?"

The soldier next to him heard this and looked up following his gaze, and sure enough he saw a huge bird flying towards the palace.

No, it's swooping down.

"Enemy attack!"

The soldiers roared loudly, and the soldiers guarding other parts of the palace immediately gathered in the direction of the main entrance when they heard the sound.

"Hoo~!"

As soon as the soldier finished speaking, the giant black eagle controlled by Ilumi had already passed over the palace, circled in the air and landed in the inner courtyard of the palace.

"Where is the enemy!?"

Bell and Jaka each brought a team of escorts to the front door of the palace, but found nothing there, so they couldn't help asking angrily.

"The enemy has entered the palace!"

The gatekeeper pointed toward the inside of the palace.

"Inside the palace?" Bell looked in the direction of the soldier's finger, and his expression suddenly changed.

"No! That direction is the inner court! Princess, go and protect the inner court!"

"What!?" Jaka also looked shocked, and the two of them immediately rushed towards the inner courtyard where the princess was, regardless of whether the subordinates behind them could catch up.

At this time, the inner courtyard of the palace.

A blue-haired woman in a white robe was walking in the garden of the palace, holding a showerhead in her hand. When she saw a flowerpot with dry soil, she sprinkled a little water on it.

Behind the blue-haired woman were three young women in white robes, acting as maids.

Ikarem stood in the corridor of the inner courtyard, looking at the princess who was watering the flowers, looking pleased.

It is already the ninth month, and the princess is about to give birth to a new hope for Alabasta's future. It is necessary to maintain a good mood.

"Yeah~!!"

Suddenly, a maid in the inner courtyard fell to the ground, looked at the sky and screamed in horror.

The maid's scream attracted the attention of everyone in the inner courtyard, including the princess who was watering the water.

"What are you doing!? You are so rude in front of Her Royal Highness the Princess!"

Ikarem immediately frowned and scolded, and stepped out of the corridor. However, as soon as he stepped out of the corridor, he was enveloped in a shadow. When he looked up, his expression suddenly changed.

"Hoo~!"

In the sky above the inner court, a giant black eagle flapped its wings, covering almost half of the inner court and slowly landed in the inner court.

"Bang...!"

With a heavy landing sound, the black giant eagle retracted its huge wings, and the arched cabin on its back disappeared, revealing four figures sitting on the back of the black eagle.

"Your Highness the Princess~!"

"We are here to protect you~!"

The two deputy captains of the escort, Bell and Gaka, jumped out of the palace building and landed on both sides of the princess. They drew their swords and pointed at the giant black eagle in front of them.

"Tap tap tap..."

Immediately afterwards, a burst of rapid and dense footsteps sounded. The escort soldiers arrived and surrounded the black giant eagle in the inner courtyard. The spears in their hands were raised diagonally. As long as the eagle made the slightest movement, it would stab it out.

"We have arrived at the Alabasta Palace?"

"According to the original prediction, even if there were sand ships, it would take two days, but we only took 30 minutes, which is so fast."

Olvia stood up from the black seat, looked around, and confirmed that this was indeed the Alabasta Palace. She couldn't help but marvel at Ilumi's speed.

"Who are you!? Why did you invade the palace!?"

Ikarem walked to the front of the soldiers, raised his head and asked the four figures on Black Hawk's back. As the captain of the Kingdom Guard, Ikarem naturally had to stand at the front.

"Don't panic, we are not enemies of Alabasta, we are here to see the King of Alabasta."

Ilumi stood up and jumped off the back of the black hawk, landing in front of Ikarem.

Olvia and Robin, who were on the back of the black hawk, slid down along the wings of the black hawk like they were on a slide.

Walter landed gently in front of the two of them, blocking the attack paths of many soldiers.

"Since you are here to meet the king, you should apply for the meeting through formal channels. Your behavior is really rude!"

"Do you know what a crime it is to break into the palace without permission!?"

"Even if he is executed on the spot, there will be no problem!"

Ikarem shouted angrily, took out a pistol and pointed it at Ilumi's forehead.

"Kid, don't be so arrogant!"

Ilumi's expression turned cold when Icarem pointed at him. The soldiers in the inner courtyard suddenly felt the air around them getting colder, and fear involuntarily arose in their hearts.

"Gulu..."

Ikarem's throat was throbbing, and fine cold sweat kept breaking out on his forehead. He had the most intuitive feeling, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar at this moment.

"that……"

A gentle voice broke the heavy atmosphere in the inner courtyard.

"Excuse me, do you have anything important to do with His Majesty?"

When Ilumi heard the news, he saw the princess stroking her swollen belly with both hands, looking at Ilumi with a gentle smile.

Ilumi's murderous intention was only directed at Ikarem and the soldiers, and did not have any impact on the pregnant princess.

"Nothing, I just asked him for a stone."

Yilumi withdrew his murderous intent, looked at the princess, and replied in a calm tone.

"Breathe in."

The moment Ilumi regained his murderous intent, Icarem and other convoy soldiers gasped for air like people who came ashore after falling into the water. They looked at Ilumi with eyes full of fear.

"I will not hand over the stone you are talking about!"

At this time, a Zhongzheng deep voice came, and everyone heard it and went away, only to see Kobra walking out of the palace building with an escort team, walking through the long and narrow corridor to the inner courtyard, and facing Ilumi directly.

"I don't know where you know it from, but that thing is something that the royal family of Alabasta has guarded from generation to generation, and will never be given to others!"

Neferutali Kobra had a strong attitude and strode to the princess, protecting her behind her.

"Wow..."

As soon as Kobra said this, Illumi had not yet reacted to Kobra's words. Ikarim, Bell, Jaka and other guardsmen suddenly became nervous, and pointed their spears at Illumi.

But my legs were shaking.

"Your Majesty the King, you have misunderstood."

Olvia walked out from behind Ilumi and stood in front of the escort, bowing slightly with a respectful expression.

"We are not trying to steal the Alabasta stone, we just need to imprint the content on it."

Olvia said.

"Rubbing?" Cobra frowned, "Who are you? How did you know that there is such a thing in Alabasta? What do you want to do with the content on it?"

Cobra asked three questions in a row. Question marks appeared on the heads of Icarim and others, with confused expressions on their faces.

"My name is Nicole Olvia, and I am an archaeologist. We just want to learn about the history of eight hundred years ago through the contents on the stones."

Olivia replied calmly.

"Nicole? Olvia?"

"Aren't you already dead!?"

When Cobra heard this name, he was confused at first, and then his expression suddenly changed.

"No, since you appear here, it means that O'Hara's scholars also..." Kobra's eyes shifted from Olvia to Illumi, and then to Nico Robin,

"So, this child is what the World Government calls the [Devil's Son]?"

"Yes." Olvia looked sideways at her daughter, nodded and admitted.

"What?"

"Son of the devil?"

"The one who sank six warships by himself?"

"And only eight years old..."

The soldiers in the escort heard the conversation between their king and Olvia. They couldn't understand the first part of the conversation, but the last sentence was very familiar to them.

That was the son of the devil who was famous all over the world. The soldiers looked at Robin, a nine-year-old girl, with fear in their eyes.

"What if I don't agree?"

Cobra didn't care about the remaining two questions and asked tentatively.
