Overlord's Haki, when it reaches a certain level, can even replace Armament Haki.
Seeing this, Crocodile immediately elementalized part of his body, attempting to dodge Raynor's powerful attack.
But Raynor's Haki entanglement was not as simple as he thought.
When the Haki entanglement struck him, countless Haki lightning bolts instantly filled Crocodile's entire body.
Crocodile's elementalized body quickly solidified, and then Raynor punched him in the abdomen.
The punch ripped a hole straight through his stomach. Crocodile coughed up a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward.
He landed right in a pool of water that Aqua had fallen into earlier.
It was clear he had lost the ability to resist.
At this point, the two minutes were up. Although Raynor wanted to negotiate with Crocodile.
However, given the current situation, trying to negotiate with Crocodile was not a wise choice.
Even though he had defeated Crocodile, given his personality, he would definitely not agree to a settlement.
Instead of wasting time here, it was better to go back and disable the bomb first.
With this thought, Raynor looked at Nico Robin, a cold look appearing in his eyes, and said:
"You already know where the Poneglyph is stored. He should be useless now."
Hearing this, Nico Robin smiled.
"Thank you for getting rid of the biggest obstacle for me. We'll never meet again."
With that, Nico Robin walked straight down the secret passage.
At this moment, Raynor immediately untied Cobra's ropes and then silently recited in his heart:
"System, extract the Rabbit Talisman."
As soon as the words fell, a hexagonal stone appeared in Raynor's hand.
Raynor then activated the Rabbit Talisman's ability, and Raynor and Cobra instantly flashed back to where Luffy and the others were.
At this time, Nami was bandaging everyone's wounds.
It seemed they had just been through another tough fight. Mr. 5 had already been defeated by Sanji.
Seeing Raynor return with her father, tears streamed down Vivi's eyes.
She immediately ran up and hugged Cobra, and Cobra's eyes showed a look of relief.
"Don't cry. You are the princess of Alabasta, you should set an example for them."
Hearing this, Vivi wiped her tears directly and nodded.
At this moment, Raynor's expression was grave, and he looked at Luffy and the others.
"There's no time for fooling around here now. A bomb with an explosion radius of five thousand meters will detonate in two minutes."
Hearing this, everyone's eyes showed a look of seriousness.
"Five thousand meters in radius, that's five kilometers. How is that possible!"
Nami exclaimed in shock, while Usopp cried and paced back and forth.
Sanji, feigning calmness, lit a cigarette.
"This is troublesome indeed. With only two minutes left, it's not enough time to find the bomb."
Hearing this, Zoro drew his sword, the Sandai Kitetsu.
"Just because we can't find it, doesn't mean we shouldn't look, right? No matter what kind of bomb it is, I'll cut it apart!"
Nodding, Raynor pulled down his hat and said directly:
"I know where the bomb is. I'm only telling you this so you don't panic too much later. This matter, leave it to me."
With that, Raynor headed straight for the giant clock tower in the distance.
Seeing this, Vivi's eyes showed a look of longing.
Once upon a time, she and Kohza used to play there often.
If a bomb were to be hidden, that place would definitely be an excellent spot.
With this thought, Vivi chased after him. At this moment, Raynor used Sky Walk.
He arrived above the clock tower. At that moment, a gun barrel suddenly extended from inside the clock tower and fired at Raynor.
However, Raynor dodged it effortlessly. He then used Rankyaku, directly blasting the giant clock tower.
Along with the two Baroque Works members inside, he sent them flying.
Seeing this, everyone looked shocked.
"Hey, is that guy too much!"
The upper part of the clock tower was blown off, revealing a cannon.
Raynor then pulled out the bomb from inside.
Using Sky Walk, he headed towards the sky. He had to quickly fly up to an altitude of one thousand meters.
Only then could he minimize the damage to zero. Otherwise, no matter where it exploded, it would only be a matter of how much casualties there would be.
Seeing Raynor's action, Vivi and Luffy and the others looked on in shock.
Luffy gritted his teeth and shouted loudly.
"Hey, Raynor, where are you going? Come back quickly!"
Seeing this scene, Nami knelt on the ground, weeping.
Usopp's mouth hung open even wider, unable to believe it. Was Raynor going to sacrifice himself to save the lives of everyone in the castle?
Vivi chased after him like a madwoman, but was grabbed by Cobra, who looked on with a grave expression.
Vivi looked back at Cobra.
At this moment, a smile appeared in Cobra's eyes. He had already witnessed Raynor's immense power before.
If this level of threat required the young man to pay with his life, then he wouldn't have been able to defeat Crocodile just now.
As everyone was thinking, suddenly, a beam of light emanated from the sky.
Then, a powerful blast rushed outwards. The surrounding buildings instantly cracked, and the glass shattered.
Seeing this, the Straw Hat Pirates all looked shocked. Even Cobra's eyes showed a hint of tension.
Because Raynor still hadn't landed, was he truly just a pirate like this?
Luffy and the others had tears streaming down their faces.
The rebels and the royal army, who had just rushed in, also looked solemn.
Although they didn't know what had happened, one thing was undeniable: the young man had saved them.
With this thought, the royal army and the rebels all wept.
However, at this moment, a dark silhouette suddenly appeared in their vision.
Everyone looked towards the silhouette and couldn't help but show surprise. Because it was Raynor.
Seeing this, Luffy cried even harder and immediately hugged Raynor's neck.
He punched Raynor's back forcefully.
Raynor, while coughing, comforted Luffy.
But he himself was in more pain because his three ribs, broken by Aqua not long ago, were still throbbing.
As if sensing something, Nami punched Luffy on the head and said:
"Please, don't act like this."
With that, Nami pulled Luffy off.
