“Next, you will send me to Impel Down, right?”

While propping himself up, Crocodile thought about his end afterward.

After that battle just now, Crocodile knew that the opponent’s strength was absolutely stronger than his.
Just by the effect of that Busoshoku Hali, the opponent had reached the point of perfection.

But even so, Crocodile was still not ready to admit defeat.
He did not admit defeat in the New World.
Of course, he would not admit defeat in the first half of the Grand Line.

However, when Crocodile used all his strength to stand up, Wexford and his group had already passed through the kingdom guard without bothering about Crocodile lying in the pit.

For Wexford and others, defeating Crocodile was already enough.
The opponent had already become a Seven Warlord of the Sea.
The bounty had long been lifted.
Even if Crocodile was captured, Wexford and his group had no way to exchange the bounty.

“Gone?”

After he stood up, Crocodile looked at the gradually distant Wexford and others.
For a moment, he did not understand.

‘What the hell was going on here?’

In Crocodile thought, since the opponent was sent out by the marine to capture his hands, why did they not just arrest himself and send him to Impel Down?

”Damn, what the hell is going on?”

With a head full of questions, Crocodile turned around and shouted to Nico Robin, who was mixed in the kingdom escort, “I need Den Den Mushi.”

Although Nico Robin was not yet a subordinate of Crocodile, Robin still handed over the Den Den Mushi that Crocodile had previously-stored with her.

“Sand Crocodile? This is the Marine headquarters, what is the matter?”

When the Den Den Mushi was connected, what came out was the voice of Vice-Admiral Tsuru, who was located in the Marine Headquarters.

“Marine really know how to play.
You want me to capture the pirate Wexford.
Are you sure he is not one of you?”

Crocodile covered the place where he was wounded by Katakuri, bear the pain and continue, “But what I did not expect is that Douflamingo actually also joined you.
Worthy of being a fellow of the World Noble, he is not afraid of being caught by you and go to Impel Down?”

“Sand crocodile, what are you talking about?” Tsuru, who was in the Marine Headquarters, kept a taut face and continued, “The one you are talking about, Doflamingo, is not the one in Dressrosa.”

“If not? Who else could it be?”

Crocodile looked to the capital city gate that had already lost its figure and asked incomprehensibly, “That is Doflamingo.
Next to him, there is Garp.”

Previously, the marine had been blocking information about those Pirate Kings under Wexford, so even if it was the Seven Warlords of the Sea, he did not know the situation of those people under Wexford.

Considering that Crocodile was very puzzled, Vice Admiral Tsuru could only use the Den Den Mushi to explain to him.

“Is it someone who looks very similar to Garp and the others?” After listening to Vice Admiral Tsuru’s account about Wexford and the others, Crocodile got some insight, “So, those two are fakes?”

Vice-Admiral Tsuru nodded at the other end of the Den Mushi and said, “Yes, they are all fakes, and our Marine Headquarters is ready to publish all their information.
You should be able to see it in the next two days.”

“Since this mission has failed, then you will temporarily evacuate from Arabasta, and the marine will solve the subsequent matters.”

In fact, Vice Admiral Tsuru did not expect that Crocodile still had the opportunity to contact her.
According to her previous plan of killing with a knife, the defeated Crocodile should be killed directly by Wexford and the others.

However, now since Crocodile was still alive, the marine was still prepared to temporarily leave the Seven Warlords of Sea.
If the marine carried out another big siege on Crocodile afterward, he might still come in handy.

“I got it.”

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Crocodile resumed to Robin, “It seems that our cooperation has to shift a direction.”

In this Seven Warlords of Sea ideas, when Wexford and others had entered the capital of the Arabasta Kingdom, they were definitely ready to take direct control of the country.
After that, no matter whether Wexford had succeeded or not, Arabasta would be watched by the eyes of the world.
Under such exposure, it would not be so wise to directly touch the Arabasta Kingdom.

Although Crocodile couldn’t directly control the Arabasta Kingdom in the open, he still didn’t stop at the idea of finding the Pluton through the Baroque Work.

It was also because he still wanted to continue to find the ancient weapon Pluton, Crocodile still wanted to cooperate with Robin, who could recognize ancient words.

“Sorry, I’m afraid I can’t work with you.”

Robin, who had just entered to see Katakuri defeat Crocodile, smiled.
She turned around and walked in the direction of the capital’s gate.

Crocodile looked at Robin’s distant back.
His eyes slightly narrowed, and his untamed face was low.

As a Seven Warlords of the Sea, Crocodile was very angry.
All his plans were broken by the arrival of Wexford and his party.
The most important point was still Robin’s departure.
The only person who can identify ancient writing at this stage didn’t join his organization, so even if he found the history text with the Pluton’ message, what could he do.

………

With the same headache as Crocodile, Sengoku from Marine Headquarters also received a report from Tsuru that Wexford and others defeated the Sand Crocodile.

In this way, they were afraid that the two people similar to Garp and Doflamingo could not be concealed.
Unlike the marine, although the Seven Warlords of the Sea were under the World Government, they were always pirates.
They would not be as strict as the marine soldiers.

“It seems we can only put out all the information about those two.”

Sengoku leaned back in his chair, eyes closed, and was thinking about what kind of stir it would cause in the four seas after releasing the information about these two people.

Sitting next to Sengoku, Tsuru nodded his head and said, “That’s the only way to go.”

After Tsuru finished talking, Sengoku opened his eyes and looked at the roof and said, “That Douflamingo is okay, but Garp is a little difficult to do.”

For the marine, someone impersonating a pirate was not a problem.
At most, it was just one more reward list.
Even if the impostor was the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the marine would send more people to round up.

However, this time Garp was different.
As the marine hero, Garp was the face of the marine, and Sengoku could not allow the reputation of the marine to lose face because of a fake guy.

“For the invitation of the Seven Warlord of the Sea, they are obviously delaying.
This time Wexford directly attacked Crocodile.
It shows that they do not care about the Seven Warlord of the Sea.”

Tsuru saw Sengoku was very torn and remembered a way to deal with the situation, “We can not hope that the other side will join the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Perhaps we can only have another century of battle to do.”

Hearing this from Tsuru, Sengoku turned his head to look at his long-time comrade and said, “Like the God Valley back then?”
