One Finger Breaks Gold!

Crocodile had never mentioned the ancient weapon to anyone. Forget outsiders—even his own subordinates knew nothing of the inside details. He could not understand how Mirai had learned of it, and it alarmed him greatly. His mind raced as he tried to recall whether he had let something slip somewhere.

"Brat, are you looking down on the Four Emperors too much? Did you think you were the only one who knew about the ancient weapons?" Mirai said when he saw Crocodile's ever-changing expression.

Hearing Mirai's words, Crocodile finally relaxed. He raised his head to look at Mirai, a flicker of killing intent flashing through his eyes. "I originally planned to let you, one of the Four Emperors, witness its power after I obtained the ancient weapon. But it seems that won't be possible now. You came all the way from the New World to this place—you're after the ancient weapon too, aren't you? In that case, I can only kill all of you right now!"

"Bullshit, Crocodile! Do you think everyone is like you? Too weak on their own, so they have to rely on outside tools? Brother Mirai only came here to help me get rid of a criminal like you who has thrown the Kingdom of Alabasta into chaos!" With her enemy right before her, Vivi could no longer hold back and began cursing outright. Since childhood, she had never been a refined princess; instead, she had been lively and bold like a wild child. Now that she was cursing someone, she showed no restraint at all.

"You are?" Crocodile frowned and looked at Vivi. He stared at her for quite a while but still failed to recognize her. Vivi had followed Mirai out to sea when she was young, so many people did not even know Alabasta
