Four Seas Alliance, dock camp.
The first attack launched by the Pirate Crystal Demons has temporarily stopped.
Well, each defense point almost perfectly matches the fighting styles of the main forces.
Even if the Crystal Demon virus greatly enhances the physical fitness of those pirates, they still cannot compete with the Four Seas Alliance main force fighting on their "home ground."
Everyone is doing their jobs busily, while also constantly discussing the strange broadcast just now.
What exactly was that guy in the broadcast saying?
Would anyone really believe such a stupid lie?
Although they had these questions in their minds, they still quickly adjusted their layout according to Rowan's instructions, preparing to face the second wave of Crystal Demons.
After all, Ryan Rowan, who is respected as the ancestor by the people of Alabasta, seems to have never been wrong in his predictions of the situation.
The long night has passed, and the wind and rain have stopped.
But it's not over yet, or rather—
It's just beginning!
...
Inside the house.
Rowan sat in a chair, supporting his head with his right hand.
In his left and right pupils, two completely different sand tables were calculating separately.
Countless tiny grains of sand were arranged and combined in Rowan's eyes, turning into the Kingdom of Aden, or various "possibilities" in other regions.
Seeing this, the Four Seas Alliance members in the room did not disturb him, but were busy with their own things.
According to their thoughts, the only thing the Four Seas Alliance can do at this stage is to assist Doctor Kureha in developing a vaccine for the Crystal Demon virus as soon as possible.
Only in this way can we break the current predicament...
Huh?
Wait.
Something doesn't seem right.
This feeling of "wrongness" flashed by, and most people didn't pay attention to it, but the meticulous Crocodile began to think deeply about it.
If everything goes smoothly, the Four Seas Alliance successfully resists the next wave of Crystal Demon attacks, and waits for Kureha to successfully develop a vaccine antidote, can everything really be easily solved?
No, it's not like that.
According to that World Government bastard's words, the World Government has already sent the vaccine antidote to the Kingdom of Aden, but it was intercepted by the Four Seas Alliance.
And according to his and Rowan's speculation, the group of idiots in the Kingdom of Aden should now think that the vaccine antidote is in the hands of the Four Seas Alliance.
If we take out the vaccine antidote at this time, wouldn't that confirm what World Government said?
Thinking of this, Crocodile frowned and took a puff of his cigar.
When has he ever been so passive?
"That Flamingo bastard..."
Crocodile glanced at Rowan, he believed that the other party must have seen this point as well.
Presumably this is why the sand table in Rowan's pupils is operating and calculating with outrageous precision and speed!
...
Crocodile's judgment was almost correct.
Rowan did think of this.
And when combined with the large amount of information he had, Rowan naturally thought about more things.
The person who made the broadcast was undoubtedly Caesar Clown.
He is an extremely conceited scientist who believes that his experiments will never fail.
At this moment, Caesar should be part of the Marine's science unit, and is subordinate to the world's number one scientist, Vegapunk.
In the future, because he doesn't agree with Vegapunk, Caesar will recklessly start an experiment with scientific weapons on an island called "Punk Hazard," eventually causing a big explosion.
Caesar was arrested because of this, escaped from the prison ship, returned to Punk Hazard, and cooperated with Donquixote Doflamingo to secretly develop the raw materials for artificial Devil Fruits.
Back to the present.
In this way, it is not surprising that Doflamingo was able to connect with Caesar.
On the other hand, Caesar is currently subordinate to Vegapunk, and Vegapunk was once a colleague of Vinsmoke Judge and [Plague]Queen.
So, a possibility appeared—
Vegapunk still has some of Queen's research data in his hands, which includes the prototype of the "Ice Demon virus" that will appear in Wano Country in the future.
Whether by accident or deliberately, Caesar got that data, and developed his own virus based on the content of the data—
That is, the "Crystal Demon virus" that is now breaking out in the Kingdom of Aden!
This is the information that Rowan has deduced so far. It may not be completely accurate, but many questions have now been explained.
For example, why the characteristics of the Crystal Demon virus are so similar to the Ice Demon virus.
Also, for example, why the Donquixote Family can connect with Caesar—or rather, the "World Government" behind him.
The current Doflamingo is different from Crocodile, he is not yet one of the [Seven Warlords of the Sea].
In the near future, Doflamingo will use his informational advantage as a former Celestial Dragon to rob a batch of "Heavenly Tribute" that is being prepared to be transported to the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
Then, he will use this as a bargaining chip to threaten the World Government to agree to him becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
After having a "legal" reputation, Doflamingo will go to the Dressrosa Kingdom located in the second half of the Grand Line, and complete the national theft operation, becoming the king of the Dressrosa Kingdom.
From then on, Doflamingo's plan was completed, becoming the king of the underworld—[JOKER].
This should be Doflamingo's original plan.
However, the sudden appearance of the Four Seas Alliance seems to have given Doflamingo another choice.
Rowan guessed that Doflamingo was planning to cooperate with the World Government to hinder the Four Seas Alliance while taking the opportunity to confuse the situation in the trade of the Op-Op Fruit.
Moreover, Doflamingo can also use this as a "proof of loyalty" to join the Seven Warlords of the Sea, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone!
...
Crocodile was a little annoyed that Rowan hadn't made a move.
And when the sand table in Rowan's pupils disappeared, Crocodile finally found a chance and asked:
"Hey, what's your plan?"
Rowan thought for a while and asked back: "What's your plan?"
"If it were me, it's very simple."
Crocodile smiled sinisterly.
"Kill those who dare to provoke us, whether it's the idiots of the Kingdom of Aden, or that Flamingo bastard!"
"When the instigator is dead, we'll have plenty of time to deal with the troublesome things."
"At that time, whether you want to annex this country that has lost its royal family, or use it as a base for the Four Seas Alliance, it's up to you!"
After listening to Crocodile's words, Rowan nodded and continued to remain silent.
Crocodile waited for a while, couldn't help but knock on the table, "Hey, why aren't you talking?"
Rowan smiled, "Because there's still someone who hasn't spoken."
"Huh?"
Crocodile was stunned, not understanding.
Just as he was about to ask, the broadcast from the Kingdom of Aden rang again.
"Shurororo... no, can't laugh, the attitude is wrong..."
He made a familiar sound.
Everyone could hear that it was the person who spoke on the broadcast last night!
Crocodile was a little puzzled and turned to look at Rowan.
"You're waiting for this guy to speak? Didn't he say it once last night?"
"So, this is the second time."
Rowan grinned, and the sand table in his pupils began to operate again.
"The first time was to 'light the fire,' and the second time is to 'add fuel.'"
