Chapter 342: Crocodile Boards the Ship

"Ok?"

Belinda walked up to Mu Chong and handed him a prepared intelligence report. At the same time, Belinda's words caused Mu Chong to raise an eyebrow slightly.

"Navy? Pshaw! These guys have requested reinforcements! I wonder how many navy personnel are coming? If only it were like the last Buster Call, then I, Bartolomeo the Cannibal, could really show off my skills!"

Upon hearing Belinda's words, Mu Chong was looking down at the intelligence report when Bartolomeo, standing to the side, revealed a disdainful expression.

"Isn't this normal? Barto! If the Navy doesn't have an admiral in command, they'll either turn tail and run or request reinforcements. This bunch of weaklings can't withstand our power!"

Slad, standing to the side with his arms crossed, spoke slowly after hearing Bartolomeo's words, his face full of confidence.

"However, how many people the Navy will send depends on whether the pirates imprisoned on this warship are people that the Navy or the World Government values!"

Tap! Tap! Tap...

Just as Slard's voice faded, slow footsteps echoed from the stairwell leading down from the naval ship. Then, everyone saw Sha Crocodile and Daz Bones, dressed in prison garb, emerge from the stairwell.

"Yo! Hahahaha! Isn't this the Shichibukai from Alabasta? What a coincidence! How did you end up like this?"

Once everyone recognized the two, Slater's smug voice rang out from the crowd, completely unconcerned whether his words would enrage the other party.

"Hey! Mu Chong! The guys on your ship are all pretty rude..."

Snapped!

Crocodile's face was grim, his eyes fixed on Slade, and he walked towards Mu Chong and the others as he spoke.

But just as Shakrodall was about to attack Slade, Mu Chong tossed him the intelligence he was holding.

"Hehehe! Old Crocodile! Let's talk about fighting later. The Navy and the World Government won't let you off so easily, you Shichibukai. Even though you've been removed from the list, they still need you to intimidate pirates. But now that I've kidnapped you, they're getting anxious!"

Mu Chong stared at Sha Crocodile, who was looking down at the intelligence report, and spoke calmly, his expression showing no worry or panic whatsoever.

Whoosh!

"Hmph! A mere navy? I can handle that! If you find it troublesome, you can leave now, just leave behind a usable ship!"

After reading the intelligence report, Crocodile unleashed a burst of yellow sand from his palm, instantly shredding the paper. He then raised his head and arrogantly addressed Mu Chong.

"Damn! Fine! You've lost this time, but at least you haven't lost your stubbornness. Alright, stop dawdling. I'm here to take you away. We can talk about it on the Freedom!"

Mu Chong scoffed at Crocodile's words, waving his hand dismissively. He wasn't bothered to argue with Crocodile.

"Let's go, everyone! It's time to leave with our spoils!"

Then, Mu Chong looked at the people on the warship and gave the order to retreat.

"Hahaha! Today's game was great, it just ended too quickly!"

"Hmph! If you hadn't randomly placed those barriers earlier, that warship would have been blown to smithereens by now!"

"Damn it, you still have the nerve to say that! Didak! If my barrier hadn't opened in time, your explosion would have blown me up too! And now you're blaming me for getting in your way? Have you no shame?"

"Tch! Who told you to be so weak, even afraid of my bombs..."

boom!boom!

"Hey! You two better behave yourselves and stop embarrassing yourselves in front of outsiders!"

Just as Bartolomeo and Didac were walking and cursing, Baku went up and punched them both, making them howl in pain.

"Understood, Brother Baku!" x2

However, Bartolomeo and Didac dared not act rashly towards Baku. After all, as their instructors who trained them in Armament Haki, they were well aware of the power Baku possessed.

Just after Mu Chong and the others left the warship, Sha Crocodile and Daz Bones, who were still standing on the deck, did not move.

"Boss! We..."

Daz Bones glanced at Mu Chong and the others as they left, then turned to Sha Crocodile and asked softly, unsure of his boss's thoughts.

call!

A sea breeze swept across the deck of the warship, ruffling the hair and clothes of the two men, and stirring Shakkyar's parched, withered heart.

"Hahaha! Since this chivalrous Mu Chong has come to invite me personally, I, Sha Crocodile, will not refuse to give him face. I will borrow his ship for a while!"

Crocodile was also staring in the direction Mu Chong and the others had left, his mind still replaying Mu Chong's words. After struggling for a moment, he laughed heartily without batting an eye and said...

"Forehead……"

Sha Crocodile's words stunned Daz Bones, who could only nod in agreement as his underling.

Meanwhile, Mu Chong and his crew, who had already returned to the Freedom with their spoils, were waiting for Crocodile and his companion.

"Hey! Captain! Do you think those two will come? After all, they were once Shichibukai, do you think they'll give in so easily?"

Slad, sipping his drink, stood side-by-side with Mu Chong at the railing of the Liberty, glancing towards the left front, and asked softly.

"Hmm? Yes... wait a minute, something sounds off to me. What's wrong with boarding the Freedom? Does it lower his status as a Shichibukai? Let alone the fact that he's no longer one, even if he hadn't been removed from the Shichibukai, he wouldn't be able to board at all if I hadn't wanted him to! The Freedom isn't a ship just anyone can board!"

Upon hearing Slad's words, Mu Chong suddenly felt an urge to punch him. What? Does he have so little confidence in his ship?

puff……

"Hahaha! No! Captain! I didn't mean that! Ah... Help... The captain's going to kill someone..."

Mu Chong's sudden reaction caused Slad to spit out his drink and then run away in an exaggerated manner as if his life depended on it.

"Tch! Looks like we haven't done enough physical training. Speaking of which, how long has it been since I sparred with them? Should we find a deserted island and have a proper fight? Sigh! I wonder where Robin is now!"

Mu Chong watched Slad run away, a smile appearing on his face. As he spoke, he turned to look at the sea ahead, a slight flicker in his eyes.

"Hmm? Hehehe! Here it comes!"

Just then, a cloud of yellow sand appeared on the sea in Mu Chong's line of sight, carrying Sand Crocodile and Daz Bones toward the Liberty.

call!

boom!

In just a few moments, Crocodile and his companion had arrived on the deck of the Liberty.

"Hey! Do you have anything to eat?"

Upon arriving at the Freedom, Crocodile immediately spoke without any hesitation.

"Hahahaha! Yes! Plenty!"
