Chapter 77 The Pattering Rain and the Pirates' Banquet
Chapter 77 The pouring rain and the pirates’ banquet
The battle was over and it suddenly started to rain.
In the royal capital, which had not seen rain for a long time, it began to rain heavily.
Kosha lay on the ground, feeling the raindrops falling with his hands, and recalled in his mind his father's words, "Don't doubt, Kosha, it will rain."
The heavy rain gradually cleared away the smoke and dust on the battlefield, and people's confused eyes gradually became clear.
Princess Weiwei stood on the tower and said to everyone: "The rain that is falling now will fall again like before, because the nightmare is all over."
Crocodile's defeat declared victory in the Alabasta battle.
Luffy lay on the ground, showing his white teeth. This brilliant smile was worth protecting.
There is no need to worry about how to deal with Crocodile, the navy will arrive here soon.
Dasqi came to Crocodile and said calmly: "I just discovered an artificial rainfall ship belonging to Baroque Works. It contains dancing powder, the secret crime company, the president of Baroque Works, and the pirates of the Seven-Bukai Sea."
Shah Crocodile, in the name of the World Direct Naval Headquarters, I will strip you of all the licenses you hold, as well as the titles and powers granted to you."
The navy took away Crocodile and members of the Baroque Working Society on the battlefield.
The rain kept falling, and Kosha sat there with a heavy expression.
He felt very guilty because he was the leader of the rebel army and commanded this battle, causing the death of many innocent lives.
King Kobra came over: "It is natural to regret, and it is natural to want to make amends."
"king!"
"Your Majesty the King!"
Kobra said: "The loss is so heavy and nothing has been gained, but this is everything brand new. No matter who the opponent is, the war has begun and is over. No one can erase what happened in the past. Let's just be good.
Stand up from this war and continue to live! Kingdom of Alabasta!"
Kobra's speech inspired everyone again.
This war, which has been recorded in history, but is by no means worthy of praise, has finally come to an end.
Everyone in the Straw Hats lay in a corner and fell asleep tiredly, letting the rain fall on their bodies and feeling a different kind of coolness.
The heavy rain that has not fallen in three years has made the country noisy.
It rained all the way from the afternoon until late at night, and it still didn't stop.
The members of the Straw Hats were moved to the bedrooms in the palace by the soldiers, and everyone lay down on a comfortable big bed and slept soundly.
Until the next morning, I slept until I woke up naturally.
Li Xiao stretched out and looked at the sunshine outside the window. The air was also fresh and moist.
I have been running in the desert these days, and finally had a comfortable sleep, and my mental state was completely restored.
On the other side, in order to cover up the heroic deeds of the Straw Hat Pirates, the Navy Headquarters deliberately described this battle as the work of Smoker and Tashigi.
The Navy will not announce to the public that Alabasta's crisis was rescued by pirates.
But Smoker did not bother to attend the medal awarding ceremony. In other words, Smoker directly disobeyed the order from above and left a sentence: "Go to hell!"
On the other side, Li Xiao got up and went for a walk with Sanji Usopp.
The country began to rebuild, and people began to repair collapsed houses with smiles on their faces.
"This country is really strong." Usopp said.
"Because the princess is very cute." Sanji said.
"Princess and Miss Nami are both cute." Li Xiao said.
Sanji suddenly remembered: "By the way, why did Princess Vivi and Miss Nami kiss you? This is definitely an illusion, fake, fake!"
"This is Shuai's trouble." Li Xiao shrugged.
"Bastard Li Xiao, I am MR. Prince Sanji. I want to destroy you on behalf of those beautiful ladies who have been deceived by you. Watch my moves!"
Saying that, Sanji flew over with a kick.
Li Xiao swallowed his breakfast and started fighting with Sanji on the street.
Usopp looked helpless. He had seen this kind of scene many times and was no longer surprised.
After fighting for a while and feeling tired, they each turned around and grunted, then returned to the palace.
When I arrived at Luffy's room, I found that Luffy had woken up and was sitting there alive and well.
Princess Weiwei sat next to Luffy and looked happily: "That's great Luffy, you have become so energetic."
"Spiritual? I've always been very energetic." Luffy said.
Nami on the side complained: "Idiot, you have been having a high fever. Your situation is very bad. Vivi and Chopper have been taking care of you."
"Really, thank you!" Luffy said.
"Luffy, you're awake." Li Xiao said.
Luffy greeted Li Xiao: "It's Li Xiao, long time no see!"
"Long time no see...Long time no see?" Luffy kept repeating this sentence, feeling a little strange.
Why did he say "Long time no see"? Luffy just said it based on his intuition.
Usopp on the side said: "It's normal to feel this way. After all, you have been sleeping for three days."
Luffy was very surprised: "Three days, did I sleep for three days? I missed 15 meals!"
Nami complained: "Why do you count this thing so fast!"
Usopp complained: "And it's calculated based on 5 meals a day."
While everyone was chatting, the bedroom door was pushed open.
Ikarem asked the guard to bring a cart of fruit.
After taking a closer look, it turned out that it was not Ikarem, but Ikarem's wife. The two were dressed almost exactly the same and looked similar, which almost made everyone think that Ikarem had a habit of dressing up as a woman.
Zoro looked shocked: "Are you kidding? No matter how we look like husband and wife, there must be a limit."
Ikarem's wife said: "I heard that you are very good eaters, so you can fill your stomach with fruits before dinner."
"I see!"
Luffy nodded, then swept his right hand across the cart. In the next second, all the fruits on the cart were gone.
In maybe a few tenths of a second, Luffy swallowed a cart full of fruit.
Li Xiao looked confused: "Is this a magic trick?"
Finally, it's dinner time.
The long table is filled with all kinds of food, rice, meat, fruit, fish, desserts, and fine wine.
Everyone, who had not eaten delicious food for a long time, began to wolf down the food.
The guards around the dinner table were shocked.
"No sense of elegance."
"We should be more quiet when dining in this big dining hall."
"This dinner table is too noisy."
“I can’t stand it anymore, it’s so lacking in quality!”
The soldiers who had been guarding the palace for many years saw this scene for the first time.
Li Xiao's chopsticks didn't stop. The dining table was filled with Alabasta state banquets, and not a single dish was repeated.
King Kobra sat there, not even daring to move his chopsticks, his expression as shocked as the guards.
Princess Weiwei burst out laughing and was very happy.
