"Kill Shichibukai?"
The icy words shattered like thunder at this moment, shaking everyone's nerves.
Even Nami, who lived in the East Blue, knew a little about the reputation of the Shichibukai.
Not to mention Tashigi and Vivi and Igaram, who were located in the first half of the Grand Line and in Alabasta.
"Y, you're talking nonsense. We're not people from Alabasta, and we don't need to kill Crocodile." Igaram's expression changed, and he hurriedly quibbled.
However, just as these words fell, he saw Vivi shake her head and look at Kai stubbornly and said, "Igaram, stop talking. He's not a member of Baroque Works."
"I want to know, why are you so sure that I want to kill Crocodile?"
That day, in Alabasta, Vivi had discovered that the Dancing Powder incident was related to Baroque Works.
However, she had always held a skeptical attitude towards the president who was lurking behind the scenes.
But now, Kai suddenly wanted to make such a strange deal, which undoubtedly made Vivi even more certain of her guess, and the clues she had obtained from lurking in Baroque Works during these times.
The most important point was that the strong disdained to lie.
Especially this young man in front of her, who made ruthless moves.
"Princess!" Igaram suddenly became anxious.
However, he was quickly glared at by Vivi, and he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue back into his stomach.
Watching this scene, Kai withdrew his skeletal hand and then snapped his fingers.
The imprisonment magic that had been wrapped around them also collapsed.
"Hehe, it seems that Princess Vivi also has the sincerity to continue talking. Then, to show my sincerity, I'll let the two of you regain your freedom first." Kai chuckled coldly and said, "However, if you want to escape, don't blame me for being ruthless."
"Lord Laxus, don't worry. We won't escape, but I want to know, why are you so sure that the mastermind behind Baroque Works is Shichibukai Crocodile?" Vivi slightly loosened her numb body and hurriedly asked.
After all, even she and Igaram had spent a lot of effort over the years, and they couldn't be sure who the mastermind was.
Kai now suddenly appeared and pointed it out, and also showed such a certain posture, which did make them feel surprised.
"I guessed it. Do you believe it?" Kai glanced at Vivi lightly and said, "Moreover, what you have to do is not ask me why."
"It's to agree to the deal or cancel the deal."
"Also, my current identity is not Laxus. You can call me Ainz Ooal Gown!"
The awe-inspiring words, the words were mixed with an unquestionable taste.
Hearing this, Igaram's face became anxious. He was just about to say something, but he was stopped by Vivi reaching out her hand.
"Lord Ainz, I didn't mean to offend you, but this deal involves too much." Watching Kai's face, which had an unquestionable expression, Vivi gave up asking and said, "If Lord Ainz really plans to make a deal with us, I still need to contact my father before I can confirm it."
"So, I hope Lord Ainz can give us enough time to contact Alabasta."
As a princess of a great country, and also daring to infiltrate Baroque Works to conduct undercover investigations, Vivi's courage and methods were not something that a vase could compare to.
Faced with Vivi's stubborn gaze, Kai laughed loudly and said, "As expected, women don't give way to men."
"However, don't worry. I, Ainz Ooal Gown, won't force anyone. I agree to your request."
"However, I hope you will travel with me on the next journey."
Travel together? Vivi was stunned for a moment.
However, before she could make any response, Kai's sunken eyes, the soul flame flickered slightly, and said, "Alright, this identity is temporarily over. Next, I'm still the Laxus in your eyes. Don't let outsiders know."
The inexplicable words made the people in the room couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Only Tashigi had slightly guessed something. Then, she saw the huge bone dragon collapse into the world like black mist.
Kai's Bone King posture also directly dissipated in front of everyone, restoring Laxus's aloof face.
Watching this face, which they had encountered in Loguetown, the nervous pressure in Vivi and Igaram's hearts slightly dissipated.
Soon, they saw a huge warship circling out from behind the huge coast.
The Marine flag, which represented justice, fluttered on it, making them couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Whether it was Tashigi or Vivi, they were all people who had been active in the first half of the Grand Line.
This huge warship in front of them was a multi-masted warship, which would only appear in the Grand Line.
Moreover, people who could own this kind of warship were definitely important figures in the Marine.
"Teacher Laxus, I've finally found you." Bastille's urgent voice suddenly rang out.
Soon, the crowd noticed that in addition to Bastille on the huge deck, there was also an unexpected figure.
"It's Marine Hero, Vice Admiral Garp of the Headquarters. Why would he be here?" Tashigi's expression changed slightly.
Not long ago, she had been most longing to join the Marine Headquarters. Of course, she knew a little about these Headquarters generals.
Especially Garp, who was known as the Marine Hero.
It could be said that anyone who roamed this sea definitely knew what this meant.
"Marine Hero?" Igaram's face changed slightly, and he subconsciously looked at Vivi.
In his eyes, Garp's appearance was undoubtedly an unexpected opportunity.
If he leaked the identity of Kai as the Skeletal Demon at this time, perhaps he would have a chance to escape.
However, Vivi clearly saw through Igaram's thoughts and quickly shook her head in denial.
It could be said that in Alabasta, when the people of Baroque Works were gradually eroding it, she and her father had repeatedly placed their hopes on the Marine.
Unfortunately, they were disappointed again and again.
What's more, if what Kai had said just now was true, the person hiding behind Baroque Works was Shichibukai Crocodile, who had privileges and was recognized by the World Government.
Without sufficient evidence, it was impossible to overthrow him at all.
Once they ruined that guy's plan, without sufficient evidence to make the Marine Headquarters act, then what awaited them was still Crocodile, who was roaming free.
And the endless revenge from the Shichibukai.
Therefore, the only thing Vivi could do at this time was to temporarily enter the stage of trade negotiations with Kai to avoid any further complications.
What's more, once she leaked Kai's identity, Vivi believed that at this distance, the other party was enough to kill herself dozens of times.
