Chapter 291
After several days of sailing, straight up the ca.n.a.l, the entire group finally reached the next destination.
As for the quarrel a few days ago, everyone intentionally forgot. Forgetting that kind of thing is the best choice.
Lin Tian didnt mention it either. Anyway, Blackbeard is also in this country. If Ace really refuses to give up, there is no way.
Lin Tian had no choice but to take time and leave for a while to help Ace. Blackbeards Devil Fruit ability made other Devil Fruit be useless to fight back.
Lin Tian had already lost his Devil Fruit ability. Even if Lin Tian can only rely on physical skills and swordsmans.h.i.+p, it would still be easy for Lin Tian to kill him.
Chopper said with some worry: Were finally entering the desert. It must be very hot there.
For Chopper who are used to living in icy weather, going to places like deserts is no less than a kind of torture, and it is hard to tolerate that kind of environment.
The highest temperature during the day there is over 50 degrees. Namis casual explanation surprised Chopper.
At this time, Zoro, who was hanging his anchor, found that dozens of black shadows slowly appeared in the sea water, and then several black shadows emerged from it.
Immediately after, a group of turtles that are not turtles and seals that are not seals appeared, and when they appeared, they were looking for a duel for men.
Time pa.s.sed, and after getting rid of few nuisances, everyone finally embarked on the road again after paying a lot of food.
A pile of sand several meters high, a ruined city covered by yellow sand, appeared in front of everyone, shocking everyone.
Casually collapsed buildings, town streets covered by yellow sand, if you look carefully, you can see a few trees that have turned into dry trees.
In the whole town, except for a few relatively tall houses that were not covered, most of the places were buried deep in the yellow sand. This is a desolate city without any vitality.
Is this the emirates? Luffy asked puzzledly.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Vivis face was extremely calm, it was a kind of speechless silence, No this is Erumalu, a place called the city of oasis. Although its surrounded by deserts in the past, it is also able to use the water resources by leaning on the ca.n.a.l, so it used to be a busy city, but I didnt expect it to become like this.
Glancing at the ruins in front, Vivi couldnt help recalling the scene when she arrived in this city back then, and an unspeakable sigh arose.
Turning around, After seeing this city, you know what bad things the Baroque Works Organization has done to our country and what bad luck the people of Arabasta are suffering.
Close to the town, there are only dilapidated buildings and yellow sand all over the floor. From the buildings on the yellow sand, you can vaguely see the prosperous look of the place.
Luffy sighed: Hah, its really desolate here, there is nothing.
Lin Tian kicked the dead trees on the edge at will. They were all dried up inside, without any water, only sawdust flew out. Only less than a year, it became desolate.
Yes, it is now a city full of ruins, but not long ago it was still a city full of greenery and vitality. Although it didnt rain often even before, people kept a small amount of rainwater well. The vitality of this city has been preserved, but in the past three years, this country has not rained at all.
Everyone was shocked to hear that it hadnt rained for three years. How could any country persist without rain for three years? No wonder it has become like this.
Three years. Zoro looked puzzled, But even if it doesnt rain, there is the river we entered just now. Its possible to drink from that river.
Ace said, Since they dealt with this country on purpose, how could they forget such a simple place.
Yes. Vivi said solemnly: It hasnt rained in three years, even Arabasta, a country with a history of thousands of years, is also very rare, and there is a place where it rains more than before. That is the capital, the city where the king is
After listening to Vivis statement, everyone has their own conjectures in their hearts, and they gradually become familiar with everything that happened in this country, and their faces cant help but become heavy.
Dance powder! Nami remembered and shouted it out. When Luffy asked, she slowly explained: It turned out to be this kind of thing It can call the wind and summon the rain. It was created by a researcher in a dry country in the past, it can realize artificial rain.
Boom, Luffy hammered his fist, and suddenly realized said, Its incredible powder. Ive eaten it before. Its so unpalatable.
Thats not for eating!
After listening to Namis explanation, everyone cant help but have a general understanding of this Crocodile. Hes really not simple to be able to calculate a country and play with it in the palm of his hand.
Lin Tian said meaningfully, Crocodile is not simple, and he can actually get dance powders. It seems that he took a lot of effort to plot this.
Dance powder is explicitly forbidden by the World Government. It does not matter if it is only a small amount, but a large number of transactions will definitely enter the governments line of sight.
And Crocodile, actually, has been using this thing for three years. For such a large amount, even if he is Seven Warlords, I am afraid it will be a waste of energy.
Pirates want to seize power in this country. This joke is a bit too ridiculous. These pirates actually want to settle down in a country. He can just get the kings throne, but he didnt do so. There must be other intents behind the scenes.
Aces sudden voice made everyone immersed, and they couldnt help but fall into contemplation. From the point of view of pirate, it was indeed very difficult to understand Crocodiles idea.
How is that possible? Vivis eyes were full of tears and weeping, If he wasnt looking for the throne, what else is there in our country? What would it be that they need to bring the whole country into turmoil to achieve that and let so many innocent people suffer?
Extend the hand gently patted, Vivis shoulder, Lin Tian slightly sighed, and said what he has always known, but did not say previously.
Vivi, Ace is right. Crocodiles purpose is indeed not for the throne of this country, but for something, that is his ultimate goal.
Not only Ace said this, even Lin Tian said this, the suspicion in peoples hearts immediately disappeared.
Vivi asked with tears in his eyes: Thing- what is that thing that they need to plunge our peaceful country into war? Mmillions of people are fighting for no reason under his play.

Suddenly, in this deserted city, wu wu resounded from all directions, like a sad cry, followed by constant winds Blown.
Usopp looked at the wild sand blown up by the wind in front of him, and asked in fear, Whats going on? Could it be that Baroque is chasing after us?
No, its just wind. Ace said.
The voice came from all directions, what should we do, Big Brother Lin Tian?
Lin Tian explained, Dont worry, there will be no danger, its just that the wind blows through the city and it resonates, making a sound.
This is this city, Arumalu is crying. he shouted in a low tone.
The hurricane stirred up the yellow sand in the sky, whistling, blowing through the city, blowing through the hearts of everyone, enduring the whistling of the wind in their ears, everyones heart was heavy.
Luffy looked up at all around, suddenly a piece of black cloth fluttered in the wind, Luffy quickly moved towards it.
Perceiving Luffys movements, Nami turned around and looked, It looks like someone has fallen down
Vivi also saw it, but some couldnt believe what he saw before him, There are still people living in this city.
As he trotted towards there, Luffys footsteps slowly stopped, sweat was coming out of his head, because it was not a living person, but a skeleton buried under the yellow sand.
Only when the violent wind lifted the yellow sand above it, the buried bones began to slowly emerge and appeared in front of everyone.
Vivi, who also trot over, looked at the bones at her feet, and knelt down with a thump, her right hand gently stroked the skeleton at her feet.
Father, the people living on this land, what did they do wrong? They have to endure such suffering and face such a situation We, who were born in the land of the desert, constantly confronted nature, but made those desperately living so desolate. Why does Crocodile do this? What qualifications does he have? Just for one thing that I dont know, he made people in the whole country into pain, I I will never forgive him.
Boom!
The huge house slowly collapsed with a loud noise, leaving only pieces of ruins scattered on this piece of yellow sand.
Looking at the three people, Zoro helplessly said: These people are really childish.
Lin Tian and the others dug a few sand pits, put the corpse in it, inserted a small branch. They were making a grave.
After the scene just now, Luffy was already very angry, and now he was eager to set off quickly and reach the destination, to beat the b.a.s.t.a.r.d away. Vivi, lets go!
Nami smiled and said, Lets go, Vivi, lets hurry up and feel the Emirates.
Yes. Im going to persuade the leader to stop the rebellion. The disaster in Arabasta was caused by Crocodile. I want to tell the truth and dont let everyone sacrifice in vain.
Following the advancing people, Ace stepped forward, leaning on Lin Tian, and whispered: Lin Tian, your younger sister is a bit optimistic. The battle of a million people cant just stop with little persuasion. Crocodile will not sit and do nothing.
Of course, I know. There are some things that can only be grown after experiencing it herself. After all, she will be the queen of this country in the future slightly nodded, Lin Tian said calmly. I hope that one day, this branch can come back to life and become a big tree again. Perhaps that day will be the time when this country is truly happy
