Chapter -36 - 33: Two Kings Negotiation 1 (2/2)
”Right away sir. Now if you would excuse me.”
”Hmm go, don't disappoint me. If you fail, your life will not be left intact.”
The man heard Crocodile's warning, shivered in cold sweat. He joined this Baroque Works as the pay was good. He didn't expect it to be this cruel in the organization. Swiftly, he made his way to go and pass down Crocodile's order to the others.

Two days later
Due to their training in Little Garden, they could move in a fast pace towards Alubarna. Not only that, with Narmi's help on controlling the nature, he made it so that the sandstorms nor the heat could reach them.
Actually, they could reached Alubarna in one day, but Narmi ordered them to stopped for a while and take a break. But then he went somewhere before coming back and ordered them to continue the journey.
What Narmi did when they took a break, no one knew about it as he didn't told them about it. Naturally, they didn't ask about it as they fully trusted him. They thought that if he wouldn't tell them, then he had probably planned something and want to made an element of surprise.
Thus, this occurrence happen a few times until they reached Alubarna. When they arrived, they felt bewildered as Alubarna wasn't affected with the drought that they saw in other places.
This made them felt weird as usually, if drought would had happened, the surrounding of the places should had suffered it too. But only Alubarna that wasn't affected with it. Robin, with her intelligence, could guess what had happened here.
”Narmi, is this happening due to Dance Powder?”
”Yes. It was caused by Dance Powder. That's why I said before it wasn't a natural one.”
”Dance Powder?” Law asked. Nami and Henry behind him also perked their ears with interest on the topic of Dance Powder.
”It is a powder that could create artificial rain. While it looks good when it can create artificial rain, it had a very severe side-effects. The other countries would face a long period of drought. This was due to the artificial rain nurtures the clouds that aren't ready to rain, causing its water contained to be used up. Other countries or places, would be deprived of its benefits when this clouds naturally mȧturė”
Robin nodded her head in acknowledgement on what Narmi said.
”So, I guess I could safely say that this culprit intend to framed the King of Alabasta so that he/she can control it.” Robin concluded.
”Well that was one of his purpose. He actually got another one purpose, and I think you could guess what it is Robin.”
”Poneglyph?” She asked, as that was the only thing sought out by everyone that she knew was here.
Narmi just nodded his head, affirming her guess.
”Correct. But, recently the culprit had put on a new target. This target of his was someone who could read Poneglyph. Someone originated from the O'Hara. Yes, the target is you, Robin. So I suggest you stay with me.” Narmi smiled gently towards Robin.
Robin was happy when he said that she should stay with him. But, it wasn't the same with Law as he thought that his captain smile were creepy.
'F**k this. When we just arrived here, someone want to offend him. Is it not enough with Whiskey Peak?! I guess Narmi must want me to search for informations.'
As Law's guess, Narmi turned his head towards him and said
”Law, find information about the Baroque Works. I don't care what method you used. Just report to me when you are done. Also, if there were any weird movements, quickly report it to me.”
Law swiftly made his way to gather informations after Narmi ordered him, while Narmi and the others went to the direction of Royal Palace. Narmi's intention? He want to negotiate with the King.
For him, this was a negotiation between two kings.
