Chapter 236 The Defeated Sand Crocodile
The sound of footsteps came slowly. Uchiha Feiyu, who was sitting on the chair, turned his head and looked at the visitor who came out, and said lightly:
"You're too slow, Sand Crocodile."

At this moment, most of the gamblers and waiters in the casino had already run away, leaving only a few guys who were too timid and were frightened to faint. The originally bustling casino looked like a mess, which made the man who walked out of the secret room frown.

A black coat, a scar running across the entire face, an arm with a golden hook, a cigar and a slicked-back hair. This look, which looks like a fusion of a gangster and a pirate, is today's Shichibukai Sarklockfall.

After hearing Uchiha Feiyu's condescending tone, the veins on Sand Crocodile's forehead bulged, and the cigar in his mouth was directly bitten off by him, and he sneered:

“Hahahaha…, little brat, you’re the one who came to my territory to mess things up?!”

"Your laugh is quite normal, but it's really unremarkable. No wonder you ask such a meaningless question."

Uchiha Feiyu raised his eyebrows, answered the question irrelevantly, pulled out the Sandai Kitetsu from his waist, and a shrill and tragic aura instantly spread.

Sand Crocodile felt cold all over, with tiny goose bumps on his skin. He squinted his eyes and looked at Uchiha Feiyu, with the golden hook in his hand ready to go.

Now Shaklockfar finally understood how the other party knocked out and scared away the people in the casino. This kind of pure murderous intent and momentum could actually exert a power comparable to that of the Conqueror's Haki. I wonder how many people this young man in front of him has killed?

However, even though he was extremely fearful, Shaklockfar could not lose face and dignity, and still spoke arrogantly:
"Oh, it's meaningless? It is indeed true... Since you dare to come to my casino to cause trouble, then be prepared to be turned into a mummy!!"

"Desert Diamond Sword!"

The fine yellow sand condensed into a huge diamond sword, shining with a golden luster, and chopped directly towards Uchiha Feiyu.

There was also a flash of sword in Uchiha Feiyu's hand. He did not roar, and the momentum of his sword was far less than that of Shaklockfar. However, the Desert Diamond Sword that was originally chopped towards Uchiha Feiyu collapsed halfway and was directly cut in half.

Shaklockfar's chest instantly disintegrated into yellow sand, but blood still seeped out from the sand. When his body was reassembled, a long knife scar could be seen on his chest.

"Armament Haki... I didn't expect that you have already cultivated your Haki to this level in just the first half of the Grand Line."

The Sand Crocodile reached out and gently touched the wound on his chest. Just now, Uchiha Feiyu's sword attack not only defeated the Desert Diamond Sword, but also almost split him in half.

If Shaklockfar had not been an experienced warrior and had not had the remaining Observation Haki that came into play at the critical moment, he would have been killed instantly with one sword.

Even though Saklockfar finally reacted and actively transformed into an element to dodge, he was still a little slow, resulting in some injuries.

(No, this wound is only a few centimeters deep, why is there no sign of bleeding? Is the opponent's weapon special, or is there some other technique?)
After frowning, Shaklockfall's face became even uglier. You know, although this guy's physical fitness is not as good as that of a monster like Luffy, he can still travel to the New World and escape unscathed, so no matter how bad his physical fitness is, it can't be too bad.

Basically, all the pirates who have been to the New World know more or less about life restoration. Even if ordinary wounds cannot be healed in a short period of time, at least the muscles and blood vessels can be controlled to stop the bleeding easily, instead of being like now, where there is no way to stop the bleeding no matter what.

Feeling the abnormality of the wound, Shaklockfar was a little anxious. He was no longer prepared to use tentative attacks. He turned into a terrifying sandstorm:

"Heavy Shalan!!"

With a loud bang, Shaklockfall's casino exploded completely, and a terrifying sandstorm burst out like a tornado, beginning to rage in the city.

Then a blood-red half-moon light flashed out in the sandstorm, directly cutting the sandstorm in half. The subsequent weak sandstorm gradually died down. At the same time, in the center of the endless sandstorm, Shaklockfar appeared with another wound on his body.

"Your Armament Haki is released... Even your Flying Slash is wrapped in Armament Haki. I still underestimated you. What's your name, kid?"

"Oh, are you still calling me brat? The waves behind push the waves in front, and the waves in front die on the beach. Please remember, my name is Uchiha Feiyu."

The sand crocodile's pupils shrank, and he gritted his teeth and said:
"How arrogant! Do you think you can really beat me now that you have an advantage? The cruelty experienced by the older generation of pirates is beyond your imagination."

"You'd better stop bleeding before you say anything harsh to me,"

Uchiha Feiyu rolled his eyes and no longer had the heart to argue with Shaklockfar. His figure flashed and he moved for the first time.

So fast! The moment Shaklockfar saw Uchiha Feiyu disappear, he immediately took the initiative to transform into an element. Even so, he still felt a chill on his back, and the coat behind him was cut in half.

"Tsk, you say the harshest words and fight the most cowardly fights. Is this the style of you older generation pirates?"

"Asshole...you forced me to do this! Erosion of Samsara!"

Shaklockfar pressed one hand on the ground, and suddenly endless yellow sand spread out from the ground where he touched.

This move is a large-scale attack unique to the Sand-Sand Fruit. After it touches the ground, it will absorb the moisture from the ground and the creatures or objects it touches, and gradually spread to the surroundings, turning everything into yellow sand, whether it is living or dead, even rocks and buildings will be completely turned into sand.

If given a choice, Shaklockfar would definitely not want to use this move in his own city. The spreading cycle of erosion could turn the entire Rain Banquet, and even the Rainland City, into yellow sand. It could be said that the city and reputation he had built over the years had been completely lost by this move.

But now Shaklockfar is worried about his own life, so he naturally doesn't care about the so-called city and reputation. At worst, after killing the bastard in front of him, he will kill everyone. Naturally, no one will know that it was he who destroyed the city and killed everyone!

It has to be said that Crocodile and Doflamingo, as the most similar Shichibukai, have similar personalities and ideas.

The only question is, can this move really deal with Uchiha Feiyu?

Shaklockfar raised his head and looked at his opponent. The ferocious smile on his face suddenly froze, revealing a look of horror:

"How is this possible? You...how on earth did you do it?" In the endless yellow sand, Uchiha Feiyu walked slowly over. Not only did he not sink into the desert, but his muscles all over his body were plump and hydrated, without any signs of dehydration, let alone being drained into the yellow sand.

"Maybe it's because my Armament Haki is a little special and can be directly integrated with the blood. After the Armament Haki and blood are integrated, your Sand-Sand Fruit seems to have no effect on me."

Uchiha Feiyu said with a faint smile on his face that there are some benefits to the long-term fusion of Armament Haki and Blood Nerve Mana. Armament Haki can now be fused with the blood in Uchiha Feiyu's body. When used, it can not only increase external defense, but also greatly increase internal defense.

Haki has the function of resisting the ability of devil fruits. Although Uchiha Feiyu's level of Haki cannot be said to have reached the pinnacle, by virtue of its fusion with the blood in his body, he was able to easily resist the most dangerous ability of the Sand-Sand Fruit to drain water.

“Asshole! Go to hell! Desert Greatsword! Uwaaaaaaa…”

The trick was useless, and Shaklockfar immediately fell into a state of impotence and rage. He directly used the Desert Greatsword, but Uchiha Feiyu also retaliated with a sword, and immediately chopped him away. With a loud bang, he crashed into the semi-desertified building behind him and was buried.

After a while, the wreckage gradually turned into sand, and Shaklockfar, holding his chest, stood up again:
"Damn it... Why on earth did you come to trouble me? Are you a new pirate who wants to become famous?"

"Tsk, sorry, I'm not a pirate."

Uchiha Feiyu glanced at the puzzled Shaklockfar and decided to let him understand:

"As the boss of Baroque Works, you should know Princess Vivi who is working undercover under you!"

Shaklockfar's eyes moved, revealing a look of surprise:

"Are you a strong man sent by the royal family of Alabasta?"

"No, I am a strong man found by Princess Weiwei!"

"What did that woman give you? No matter what she gave you, I can give you double. You should know that Alabasta is now in my pocket. No matter whether it is that princess or that useless king, they can no longer control this country!"

"You speak as if you can control this country. Cobra is the king of Alabasta. Even if he is in such a bad state, as long as he has justice and military support, he can still easily control this country!"

"Are you going to support him with force? What conditions did he set for you?"

"Princess Weiwei, you are my fiancée now."

Shaklockfar was speechless. This condition was equivalent to sending Alabasta away directly. Shaklockfar really couldn't do such a thing.

"So now that you understand everything, let's get on with it!"

"You little brat, do you think you can defeat me?!"

As it turned out, Uchiha Feiyu was indeed sure to defeat Shaklockfar. Although he struggled hard, and used the Sand-Sand Fruit and the Poisonous Golden Hook to the limit, and even reawakened a certain amount of two-color domineering in the fierce battle, he was still completely defeated by Uchiha Feiyu half an hour later.

The original Rainland City has now completely turned into a desert ruin. The bustling and noisy market just now is now left with only the sound of strong winds mixed with yellow sand blowing through the ruins.

Occasionally, there would be some groaning and crying in some places. Those were the sounds made by the lucky ones who had managed to escape with their lives from the aftermath of the battle.

Uchiha Feiyu swept the land with his Observation Haki and shook his head. The original Rainland City had a population of at least hundreds of thousands, but now there are probably only a few thousand survivors left.

Not all of them died. A small number of people were swept away by the aftermath of the battle, and most people simply fled the city and entered the desert. It is unknown how many people could escape in the end. The desert is not so easy to cross.

Regardless of the final outcome, Sand Crocodile's reputation in Alabasta was ruined. After all, most of the aftermath of the battle was caused by the natural-type Sand Crocodile, and the number of ordinary people killed by him was at least 1, if not 8.

Moreover, the so-called Seven Warlords of the Sea will no longer have any deterrent power once they fail, and the World Government and the Navy will directly abandon them. In addition, Sakrockfall himself has a dirty bottom, and with the help of the royal family of Alabasta to testify, Uchiha Feiyu is not worried about arousing the hostility of the World Government.

Pulling out the Sandai Kitetsu in his hand, looking at the dying Shaklockfar lying on the ground, Uchiha Feiyu simply chopped the already desertified ground with his hand.

That direction was exactly the underground secret room of the original casino. Uchiha Feiyu remembered that there should be a lot of seastone items there. Sure enough, after the ground cracked, he found a lot of seastone handcuffs and even a seastone prison.

Just put seastone handcuffs on Shaklockfar. This is a living devil fruit. Uchiha Feiyu has no intention of killing him for the time being, otherwise Uchiha Feiyu would not know where to put the soul of the Sand-Sand Fruit.

……

Just as Uchiha Feiyu won a great victory, the employees of Baroque Studio who were summoned on the other side were also conquered by Robin and Princess Vivi.

There is no way around it. Most of the employees at Baroque Works don’t know who their boss is. They only know Robin, the boss’ secretary. So of course, whatever Robin says is the truth.

Moreover... the general members are not necessarily loyal to Baroque Works. After all, even the boss has become mysterious and never shows up. It would be strange to expect the employees of these Baroque studios to really believe in the promises made by the studios.

After all, the relationship between the agent members of the work agency and the entire work agency is that you pay and I do the work. It's just that the Baroque Work Agency pays enough money and has a cruel tradition of hunting down traitors, so it can maintain a framework.

Even so, these agents are still unambiguous when it comes to betrayal. For example, Mr. 9, Princess Vivi's partner, has only an ordinary good friend relationship with Princess Vivi, but when Baroque Studio wanted to deal with Princess Vivi, he turned against her without hesitation.

Although the single-celled creatures in the One Piece world do value companions and friendship more, it also shows that they don't actually care much about Baroque Studio.
