Chapter 639
"I'm going to kill you!"... Everyone turned their anger towards the source of the voice, and calmed down from the previous fighting;
"That voice!" Vivi looked up in surprise. The voice was so familiar; that annoying tone was something no one could imitate, the kind of voice that made you want to punch someone the moment you heard it. But now, to her and her country, that voice was like the voice of God, a savior.
Robin could never forget that voice, because she felt that no one in the world was more shameless, scoundrel, lewd, and vulgar than the owner of that voice... (and so on, countless other words omitted). A smile appeared on Robin's lips as she softly said, "They've come."

"Pfft...!" MR2 was so enraged by Chen Fan's words that he spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted. He had actually been exposed by this excuse, which was a huge blow to his pride. Of course, what Chen Fan said was all nonsense; his strength hadn't reached that level yet. Anyway, bragging doesn't cost anything in this world, so what's wrong with bragging a little?
After extracting the Devil Fruit from the Energy Token once more, Chen Fan thought for a moment and decided to leave it for now. Chen Fan found a bag, put the Devil Fruit inside, and then climbed the steps towards the capital. The capital of Alabasta was built on a high stone wall. Being at such a height would prevent it from being covered by dust blown by the wind, allowing the people of the capital to live better. That seemed to be the reason, but as the king, of course, his residence had to be better.
Chen Fan arrived in the capital. Broken weapons and wounded people were scattered everywhere on the ground. There were Kingdom Army and Rebel Army, but almost no ordinary people. It seemed that they had all taken refuge in advance.
Is this what war between humans is like? It's so cruel. Chen Fan has never experienced war; all he has experienced is one-sided slaughter.
After passing through the long streets, the entire capital was built in a circular pattern. In the center of the capital—737—was the king's castle, the highest organ of state power. There were six roads leading directly to the castle, so one could proceed to the capital without taking any detours. It seemed that the Rebel Army was attacking the kingdom from all directions. The Kingdom Army should now be retreating to the vicinity of the palace.
Chen Fan wondered what had become of Vivi and the others who had gone to stop the Rebel Army. Thinking back to the explosion, he was somewhat relieved that he Nami and the others away beforehand; otherwise, things might have been quite dangerous.
He accelerated towards the palace. Chaos reigned before the palace; Rebel Army and Kingdom Army clashed, blood splattering everywhere. Both sides were Red Eye, and stopping them was incredibly difficult. In this state of fighting, neither side would listen to anyone. Seeing this, Vivi's attempts to persuade him seemed to have failed. During the time he was extracting the Devil Fruit— Devil Fruit taking three minutes, six Devil Fruit took Chen Fan nearly 20 minutes, and adding the battle time, it had almost been half an hour. He wondered if Nami and the others were safe.
On the palace platform, the King of Alabasta lay covered in blood, his arms nailed to the wall. Vivi stared at the Crocodile, utterly powerless to do anything but grit her teeth and watch her father pinned to the wall.
"What's going on here? Am I blind? Why are the kingdom's heroes... trying to poison the king..." The Rebel Army leader, Kouza, appeared here and said, looking at the scene. He had come from the underground passage to persuade the king to surrender, because he had known the king and Vivi since childhood. If the king surrendered, the war would stop.
"Kouza!" Vivi exclaimed in surprise as she looked at the newcomer.
Upon seeing the newcomer Crocodile opened his mouth and laughed loudly, "Kuhahaha...! This is getting interesting! The leader and the king, at the height of the rebellion, are both gathered here. This war is like two headless flies killing each other."
"Who can tell me! Who stole the nation's rainwater?!"
"Seeing this, don't you understand? It's me! What you think the king did was a good deed was actually a trap we set. I did it all. Although the king and the Kingdom Army are doing their best to track us down, it's fortunate that you've been kept in the dark all along. It's better that you don't know, at least you can die more happily, wahahaha...!" Crocodile laughed loudly;
King Cobra shouted at Kouza, "Don't listen to Kouza! The best you can do now is get out of here quickly, even if it's just to save one more person. In a few minutes, the square in front of the palace will be blown up."
Upon hearing this, Kouza wanted to run to the edge of the platform and shout the news down to the people below, but Vivi stopped him. "No! We can't say it directly. If we do, there will be chaos below, and the war won't stop."
Kouza paused for a moment, then quickly understood what Vivi meant, "The only thing we can do now is..."
Suddenly, a piercing sound rang out continuously in the sky above the kingdom. Everyone dropped their weapons, covered their ears with their hands, and looked extremely pained. Crocodile, however, frowned slightly.
A deafening roar filled everyone's heads, leaving them dizzy and disoriented. "What's going on? What happened?!"
"Where is this noise coming from?!"
The square was in chaos. Suddenly seeing the enemy in front of them, everyone quickly grabbed their weapons, ready to fight again, when "Buzz...!!" sounded again. Everyone painfully threw down their weapons and covered their ears once more. It was simply beyond their control. After a while, the sound disappeared again.
"Who is it!"
"Who is it...!"
"Come out if you dare...!"... The people in the square shouted loudly, then saw their opponent, raised their weapons, and prepared to strike again;
"Buzz..."
"Ah..."
