In the meantime, in Alabasta, the situation was a lot better than what it described in the anime.
Because of Cade's interference, Crocodile no longer put his focus solely on Alabasta, and Alabasta accidentally became the one that benefited the most from this conflict between Crocodile and Sullivan Kingdom.
However, the same could not be said regarding the Sullivan Kingdom.
Because, as of now, Crocodile was preparing a huge surprise for Sullivan.
" Bastard, you are all always acting like you are better than me!"
Sitting in his own office, Crocodile's face looked angry as his fist broke the table.
Remembering the phone call he received just now, black lines could not help but emerge on his forehead.
Just now, he had received a call from the World Government, and they had issued a command to Crocodile, which was to attack the Sullivan Kingdom.
And if this was all they did, then Crocodile would not be so angry. However, the World Government also gave a cherry on top.
During the phone call, they deliberately provoke Crocodile, by saying they would tolerate what he did to Alabasta in case the operation was successful and even support him in his conquest.
Of course, to anyone else, this would give them a huge relief. But to Crocodile, this was like a provocation. It was as if he was just a leashed dog of the World Government.
Still, it was not without benefits. When he remembered the promise of the World Government, Crocodile also felt some burden was taken off his body.
" Nonetheless, the promise to take care of Akagami. In this case, I could finally run rampant."
Thinking about the humiliation he suffered last time, Crocodile calmed down. His eyes grew a dangerous glint as he imagined the Sullivan Kingdom destroyed by his hand.
It was not without reason. Last time, he was destroyed by Garp when he was about to go to the Sullivan Kingdom, and since he could not do anything to Garp, Crocodile decided to throw this hot water to the Sullivan Kingdom.
He took the Denden Mushi next to him and gave a call to Mr. 1
" Mr.1, tell everyone that we will go full force at the Sullivan Kingdom. This time, we will not hide anymore and let the name of Baroque Work shake the world."
. . . . . . .
Almost at the same time, Sullivan Kingdom.
In Khalifa's room, the member of Cp9 was having a secret meeting.
They all discussed about the call they had just received from the World Government that instructed them to help Crocodile invade the Sullivan Kingdom.
" So, what do you think we should do?" Kaku asked. His eyes seemed a bit wavered.
The others also did not answer immediately; their faces looked gloomy.
If it was before, they would not hesitate at all to follow the command of the World Government. But now, their position was rather unclear.
Rob Lucci, who is usually very vocal about the World Govenrment, also did not say anything.
If there was one thing that Cade had miscalculated about the Cp9 members, it was their understanding and loyalty for the World Government.
Those agents were raised by the World Government, and were brainwashed to be loyal to the World Government. But at the same time, they were also the ones that understood the horror of the World Government the most.
Agents that had intelligence that could threaten the World Government, they knew no matter how strong they were, they already had no place in the World Government. Once they returned, they would never stop worrying about when the World Government would throw them away.
Therefore, for the current them, their best option was to really seek shelter in Cade.
" It seems we really had no other choice." Looking at the silent other, Kaku sighed helplessly.
" But the prince, huh… anyway, we have assessed him for a few days, and he seemed to be trustworthy. His strength was also not that bad. Though his physique is weak, he is a monster in terms of observation Haki, and he still had that "Itachi" behind him." Khalifa added.
" Yes, I also like his character. To think that he could still reject you when you come to his room buttnak…"
" Shut up for me, Kaku!"
Khalifa almost exploded when she heard Kaku's words.
That time, the Cp9 decided to test Cade. In Case, Cade was the same as the others. A lustful Prince with no brain, even under the threat of Itachi, they would definitely choose to stay under the World Government. Even if they needed to pray every day that their secret was not discovered.
Still, when she remembered that moment, she could not help but blush.
' A good woman must know how to cherish herself.' That words from Cade continuously resounded in her mind, as her mind threw back to the time when Cade pulled his blanket and wrapped it around her.
Nonetheless, worthy of a trained agent, Khalifa quickly recovered.
" Then, have we all made the decision?"
Khalifa once again looked toward the others. And seeing the other nod, she sighed helplessly.
" Then, we are done for today. After this, we will no longer be the Cp9 under the World Government, but rather a special force under his majesty Cade. As for whether this would bring us to hell or heaven, only fate could tell us. Now, I will proceed and report things to his majesty prince Cade."
Khalifa said their determination before she silently turned around and went toward Cade's room.
