We're just confused why a Shichibukai, A pirate officially sanctioned by the World Government, would go all the way out and form a criminal organization..." Crocodile sits down and says, "What I desire isn't money or land... IT'S MILITARY MIGHT!" Mr. 2 looks confused and repeats, "Military might...?" Crocodile lights his cigar and says, "Allow me to explain from the beginning, My true objective and the full picture behind the final operation of Baroque Works..." Page 14: An exterior shot of the Rain Dinners casino is shown. Mr. 2 says, "There's really something like that here in this country!? And we're gonna be stealing it along with this entire country!? Why, I'm giddy as a little schoolgirl now!" Mr. 1 asks, "So in short, our objective this time is to ensure the successful completion of this plan, correct...?" Crocodile slides envelopes across the table to the agents. "Correct. Everything you've ever done for Baroque Works, Was all to build up for this final operation. Inside the letter in front of you are the final orders I shall leave to you." He declares, "THE TIME TO END THE KINGDOM OF ALABASTA HAS COME..." Page 15: The agents—Mr. 4, Miss Merry Christmas, Mr. 2, Miss Doublefinger, and Mr. 1—each open their envelopes and read the contents. They then hold the letters over the candelabra on the table, burning them to ashes. Miss Doublefinger says, "Once you've carried out those orders, They too, will fall into the hands of Baroque Works!" Crocodile grins evilly and says, "Within a single night, This country shall become our 'Utopia!' And once the rebels and citizens of Alabasta have lost their place to go, This kingdom shall crumble on its own...!"
