To this day Crocodile is still my favorit villain in the show. Childhood nostalgia probably plays a part in that but anyway. First of all he is just really fking cool. I mean he is a famous pirate with a giant golden hook who dresses and behaves like a mafia don and is called Sir Crocodile. But i really like how smart he operates. He was in controle of everything and for anything that could go wrong he had a failsave in place. Untill the very end he really was always at least one step ahead. His strategical success combinded with his emotional cruelness, how he likes to make people desperate just to rub it in. It all just makes for a really compelling villain imo.
So when the bomb went off in the air, it would have pushed all the air above the city away, causing an area of low pressure air. That is what leads to clouds gathering into rain and storms. There’s another reason the rain wasn’t falling here, but you’ll see that next part - people sometimes say it was Crocodile’s power but that’s a misunderstanding, both of the plot and of how Oda sets arcs up and shows us the answers well in advance.
The music playing when Luffy beats Crocodile is the 4th movement of Holst’s 9th symphony “From the New World”, which is an interesting choice for several reasons.
one piece has such a good way of hyping you up to that final punch. for almost 60 episodes you've been learning info about alabasta little by little, and it finally comes to a close with that final attack from luffy. one piece does this over and over, but it always gets better than the last and the stakes just get higher and higher.
The whole reason it wasn't raining in Alabasta is because Crocodile was using his power to dry the clouds and also pushing them away using the sandstorm, so when Luffy defeated him it started raining, because when a devil fruit user faints or dies their power "shut down". It makes it such a good climax, because this way you have all the problems culminating in an end as soon as the villain is defeated.
Also when we got introduced to Ace for first time there was a comment from a civilian "strangely there was no snow this day" meaning Ace deleted it with logia power, exactly what croc did all those years
The rain started pouring as soon as Crocodile was defeated because he was using his Devil Fruit power to make the country drier and to cause sandstorms on top of all the Dance Powder used to incriminate the King. When he becomes unconscious all that held up rain falls at the same time.
There can only be one Devil Fruit user alive at a time, so if we were to ever see another Gomu Gomu no Mi user it’d either be a previous one who’s now dead or one who ate it after Luffy dies.
first 😛
Congratulations soldier

Crocodile really did plan for everything with the bomb on a timer.
Too bad he didn't plan for the the straw hats. Rookie mistake 😂
