Something’s Not Right
In the Golden Lion, the blood on the deck had been wiped clean and Pizarro’s body was thrown into the sea.
Now the whole fleet is moving towards Headquarters.
And in the top office, Kaz and Wilbur came together and asked Kuro for forgiveness.
“Mr. Kuro.”
The two of them lowered their heads in front of Kuro. Wilbur said first, “I came to apologize for our failure last time. It was our fault for not taking the mission seriously, which led to such a terrible incident!”
“Ah… Well, people make mistakes. The will of the world doesn’t follow us, and it’s at the critical moment of opening. It’s fine as long as we solve it.” Kuro sat on the main seat and waved his hand, not caring at all.
As long as it was resolved, he really did not care.
However, that ability is quite interesting. It can actually assimilate thoughts and then tame them, but it seems…
Kuro glanced at Kaz. It would be a waste to deal with this guy with his mental ability.
“What about the people who were tied up, nothing happened to them?” Kuro asked.
“No one was hurt, and after this incident, they said they would support David’s philosophy,” Cass said.
After that ability was devoured by Kaz, those nobles were also passed on by Kaz’s thoughts. Now it has become abnormally righteous, which gives David a foundation to do things.
In the past, he took the bottom-level route and abandoned the upper-level route. Now, he wants to go up and down, especially now that he is in the upper-level. He might understand it better than the bottom-level.
Then things would be easy.
But this, Kuro did not know.
He nodded. “It’s good that you’re fine. Then this matter is over. Speaking of which, how many people came to the opening ceremony? I heard that the situation is quite grand.”
That half of the Gran Tezolo has long been handed over and has been converted into a sightseeing ship. It seems that there are many guests.
“Mr. Kuro, in terms of kings, there are a total of fifty-three kings, fifteen of whom David met at the World Conference,” Wilbur said honestly.
“There are quite a lot of people here. Alright, the sightseeing industry has finally started.”
Kuro nodded and said, “After arriving at the headquarters, take a break and continue to escort them. Although it’s good that the matter has been resolved, it’s best if nothing happens to this sightseeing line. You have to know that an absolutely safe environment is also a big selling point for us.”
“Yes!” Kaz and Wilbur stood up and answered loudly.
Castor paused. “Mr. Kuro, David has a question for you about Dressrosa.”
“Ah? I’m a Marine, I can’t control a king. It’s not proper to ‘ask me for instructions’. He’s a king, he has to make his own decisions. It’s better not to mention this, in case outsiders hear it and think I have any strange ambitions.”
Kuro waved his hand and leaned back, saying to the two, “Okay, go out.”
“Yes!”
Kaz and Wilbur gave a Marine salute and retreated together.
Kuro curled his lips. It’s fine for a king to come here all day long, but he still needs to make decisions. What is he doing?
Although David’s throne was raised by himself, it was essentially the power given by the World Government and had little to do with him.
He and David were just working together.
After retreating, Kaz frowned and said to Wilbur, “Did Mr. Kuro promise David the right to make decisions?”
“That should be the case.” Wilbur nodded and said, “After all, Mr. Kuro has always been like this. Everything is in his control. He will not say anything, he will only tell us what to do. What Mr. Kuro means is also to show that we Marines should not get involved in the affairs of the kingdom openly, which is not good for us. We are Marines after all, and we have to do our duty as Marines. Once we get involved too much, outsiders will notice our Mr. Kuro’s ambition. No, it can’t be called ambition. It should be a righteous wish.”
“That makes sense.” Kaz sighed. “The road to justice is far and wide…”
Then he said firmly, “As long as we walk firmly on this road, someone will eventually take this road!”
The two of them disappeared from the corridor as they spoke.
Behind them, Kizaru touched his chin and his sunglasses glowed with a strange light. He said with a pout, “Desrosa, it’s so scary…”
His tone was meaningful.
Two days later the Battleship arrived at Headquarters and the Marines at Headquarters were invited to the meeting.
Originally, Kuro wanted to leave directly, but he had no choice but to be forcibly pulled over for a meeting.
“This incident…”
In the conference room, many Vice-Admirals are gathered together. Kuro is sitting in the first seat on the right, and Ji Yuan is sitting below him. Sakasugi is sitting in the seat of honor, and Kizaru and Yi Xiao are sitting on both sides.
“Blackbeard is going to invade Alabasta. This is a challenge for us. This time, the higher-ups ask us to stop Blackbeard. Marines are going to take full action and go to Alabasta.”
Sakasugi looked around and looked at Kuro. “Kuro, you are going.”
Kuro raised his eyebrows. He did not dislike this. He could beat Tiki if there were many people.
“Well, Sakasugi, let Kuro do something else this time.”
Suddenly, Kizaru said, “He is still coordinating Shichibukai. G-3 is at the front line. Now the spy from the Country of Peace has sent a message that Big Mom has arrived in the Country of Peace. No matter what, the front line must be prepared.”
Sakasugi thought for a moment and nodded. “That makes sense. Kuro, you stay in G-3.”
‘Yes?’
Kuro looked at Kizaru strangely.
What’s wrong with the old man today? He suddenly spoke up for me.
He had never done such a thing before.
But it doesn’t matter if Kuro can rest. On the contrary, he is more inclined to this side.
“Yixiao, you will lead the team, plus Ji and Ji Yuan, the two of you will also follow and inform the various Vice-Admiral outside to transfer half of their forces. You must leave Blackbeard in Alabasta!” Akainu clenched his fists and slammed them on the table.
Led by one Admiral, two Admiral Substitutes, plus Doberman, Onigumo, Strawberry, Burning Mountain, Mole, and several elite Vice-Admiral Dalmatian, a total of twenty Battleships went to Alabasta.
Kuro did not count. He went straight back.
“That’s not right…”
Kuro rubbed his chin and stood on the deck looking at the sea. It was getting wrong.
Marine forces have been transferred, especially on the New World side, which is basically empty. Of course, it will take such a large force to eliminate Blackbeard in order to maintain stability, but it also means that the New World has been in a vacuum recently, and their strength against pirates will be reduced.
In the entire New World, only G-3 still has a lot of troops and can deter pirates, but they are only ordinary pirates.
But… what if Blackbeard doesn’t go?
Then wouldn’t the Marines have made a wasted trip?
“Chloe! Call Shichibukai and Rudolph and ask them to come to G-3! Ask Kaz and Wilbur to turn around and go straight back to G-3!”
Kuro felt that something was wrong, but he couldn’t tell what it was, but in any case, he gathered his power first and waited for Alabasta to finish and confirm that it was safe.
