Chapter 388: Before the war

Chapter 388 Before the war
The straw hat group went straight to the rain feast.
The purpose is self-evident.
Mostly I want to beat the culprit Krokdal down here.
But this is clearly unrealistic.
However, with Luffy's blood lock halo, there should be no change.
Maude thought to himself, ignoring the gazes that Smogg and Dasqi were looking at, and sat down straight.
Bailey was not in a hurry to feast, but the thieves looked at Smogg and Dasqi.
Perona's whispered encouragement, Bailey jumped off the table and came to Smog and Dasqi.
then,
Bailey cocked his mouth.
Smogg and Da Siqi suddenly became alert when they saw this.
Bailey didn't care so much, he started directly, and quickly found all the money from Smogg and Dasqi.
"..." Small.
"..." Da Siqi.
"Hehe."
Bailey held the money found, smiled at the two wounded thieves, and ran back to his seat.
Seeing Bailey Pidian Pidian running away, Smogg's forehead appeared several blue veins, quite a feeling of being bullied by a dog.
Da Siqi lowered his head, extremely depressed.
First, he was crushed by Maud with a single knife, and then he was treated by the doctor of the Straw Hat Pirates. This would also be taken away by a skunk.
This experience is really bad.
After getting the [introduction money] from Smog and Dasqi, Bailey waved his hand and ordered all the dishes in the restaurant.
With difficulty, Smogg took his gaze away from Bailey, turned to Maude, and asked in a deep voice, "Bacardi Maude, what is your purpose in coming to Alabastan?"
It's a similar problem again...
Maude glanced at Smogg, Quandang didn't hear it, and instead picked up a cranberry pancake and put it in his mouth.
When Smogg frowned, and wanted to say something, a shadow snake climbed onto him silently, blocking his mouth tightly.
Da Siqi on the side was not spared either. While being restrained by a shadow snake, he was also gagged.
After that, Maude just spent more than two hours in front of Smogg and Da Siqi before eating this luxurious lunch.
After eating and drinking enough, Maude got up to leave.
He had to go to a rain banquet and take away the information Robin had prepared.
"Boss, don't look for it."
At the checkout, Bailey slapped all the money from Smog and Dasqi on the counter, looking quite proud.
The boss carefully glanced at Smogg, whose face was terribly dark, and struggled for a while, before finally taking the money.
After paying the bill, Maude led Perona and Bailey out of the restaurant.
From beginning to end, I didn't look at Smogg and Dasqi again.
After leaving the restaurant for tens of meters, the Shadow Snake quietly returned to its body.
I just don't know how Smogg will react when he is restored to freedom.
After a few minutes.
Maude came to the rain banquet, first left Perona and Bailey in the casino lobby, and then went to the room where Robin kept the intelligence alone.
Entering the room, there was no one inside.
Maude took out a pile of information materials with clear photos from the agreed table and cabinet.
He took out one of the pages and glanced roughly.
The content on the paper did exactly as he requested, only summarizing information about abilities and names.
In this way, it is much more convenient.
Maude nodded in satisfaction and probed the surroundings with his sight.
After confirming that there was no one, Maude summoned a note and wrote the information of these capable persons into the note one by one.
"Although the comprehensive strength of these high-level agents is not strong, they are... anyhow capable, and should bring a lot of benefits."
Maude flipped his palm, and the Hunter's note turned into a faint light spot and disappeared in midair.
In my memory, except for a few of the Devil Fruit abilities in the Baroque Work Club, the others were somewhat funny about the development direction of Devil Fruit.
Say so,
But despite the [direction] being wrong, the time for these people to eat the Devil Fruit is not short, and their proficiency will naturally not be low.
In other words, on the premise that the amount of intelligence meets the standard conditions, killing them should be able to get a lot of experience in devil fruits.
As for the gains from swordsmanship and domineering, they basically don't get the slightest amount, and it will offset some of the gains from demons and physique.
This is one of the inevitable drawbacks of Hunter's Notes in the middle and late stages.
Maude destroyed the paper that recorded the information and left the room immediately. Instead of meeting Perona at the first time, he explored it in the rain banquet.
There is no trace of the straw hat group.
And Klockdale and Robin are not at the rain feast either.
"Are you going to start? Klockdal's "Pirate the Country" program."
"And... the original historical text related to Pluto."
Maude's eyes flashed.
After a while,
He returned to the gambling hall and found Perona and Bailey.
then,
He saw Pele lying on the floor, so passive that he was about to die on the spot.
"what happened?"
Maude was puzzled.
Perona pursed her lips: "This idiot loses red eyes."
Maude understood in seconds, and glanced at Bailey who wanted to be a mayfly in the next life.
"Go, go to Albana."
After three hours of delay, it was time to go to Albana.
Before leaving, Maude glanced at the magnificent casino lobby.
Krokdal is not here, it is an excellent opportunity to perform the functions of a pirate.
But Maude pays more attention to the improvement of strength, and can only miss this piece of meat.
After a while,
The two of them leave the casino.
Bailey turned into a chariot again, carrying Maud and Perona in the direction of Albana.
The chariot drove at high speed in the desert for two hours, crossing a Haihe River on the way.
According to the current speed of travel, it may take about two hours to reach Albana.
Due to lack of intelligence, Maude is not clear about the current situation in Albana.
I wonder if the war has already begun.
Has the Straw Hat Pirates officially confronted the Baroque Job Club?
Anyway, with the style of the Straw Hat Pirates, even if you narrowly defeat the enemy in a deadly battle, you can still survive the enemy in the end.
In this way, Maude didn't worry about being robbed.
Continue on from the other side of the Haihe River.
More than an hour later.
Maude saw a group of unexpected people on the sand dunes ahead.
It was really the straw hat group.
But Luffy was not seen.
Hearing the movement of the Bailey chariot driving in the desert, the highly vigilant straw hat group looked over for the first time.
"Eh!"
After seeing the familiar chariot, they rushed to Albana, as if they saw a ray of precious dawn in the dark night, and suddenly revealed the color of surprise.
"It's Maud..."
five minutes later.
After picking up Nami and the others, the Bailey chariot continued to drive.
"In other words, in order to hold Klockdal, Luffy chose to stay behind?"
Hearing Nami's explanation, Maude was a little surprised.
"Ok."
On the chariot, everyone looked worried.
Even the tough guy Sauron can only divert attention by pushing iron.
Maude groaned and inferred: "The direction of travel was the same, but when we set off from Yuyan, we didn't hear anything, and we didn't meet Luffy. This shows that... the battle is most likely over."
"..."
Everyone's hearts condensed slightly.
"Luffy is so strong, it will definitely be fine."
Usopp comforted everyone in time.
Although the effect is minimal, everyone can only choose to believe in Luffy.
Maude didn't try to stimulate them further.
In that kind of desert terrain, with Krokdal's rustling fruit ability, if Luffy does not trigger the blood lock halo, it is really possible to stop here.
"Maud, what did you go to Albana for..."
Weiwei stared at Maude's profile and asked courageously.
Maude met Weiwei's gaze and said calmly, "No comment."
"..."
Weiwei was taken aback for a moment.
A thought suddenly appeared in her heart, and she subconsciously looked around her companions.
Right now is the most difficult time for the country, if Maude is willing to help them...
Not only Weiwei, but others also thought of this.
But from a standpoint, if you want to ask Maude for help, Weiwei can only speak in person.
However, only on the relationship, it is the most suitable opening for Usopp.
Usopp reacted quickly and spoke immediately.
"Master, can you..."
"Sorry, I'm also Qiwuhai. According to the rules, I can't have with Krokdal, who is also Qiwuhai."
Maude knew what Usopp wanted to say, so he interrupted Usopp first.
At the same time, I silently added a sentence in my heart: Of course, it's not good on the surface, but it's not bad on the secret.
"..."
Everyone couldn't help being silent when they heard the words, and it was hard to hide their disappointment.
"but……"
Maude looked at everyone and said, "I can assure you that this country... will be fine."
Although there is no proof, but the person who said this is Maud.
For no reason, it was like a heart booster that gave Weiwei and others a ray of brilliance.
