The riots in the Country of Peace that Kuro had expected did not happen. Two or three days have passed, and they are still doing what they should do. They even showed a lot of vitality.
No one rebelled …
Not only did no one rebel, but there were also craftsmen who came to repair the Guardian Tower.
In their words, they wanted to give the new general a complete home.
And he’s all smiles…
This made Kuro wonder.
Why, can he really be a general in the Country of Peace?
So fantastical?
“General!”
At this moment, on the main street of the City of Flowers, a group of people and the people of Country of Nations saw Kuro strolling around. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
In response, Kuro could only pull the corners of his mouth and wave his hand. “Don’t kneel, don’t kneel. I don’t kneel.”
But these words were useless. This group of people still knelt there without moving, making Kuro a little helpless.
He sighed and looked around. His eyes lit up and he waved at a person who was maintaining order nearby. “Wilbur, come here!”
It was Wilbur who was maintaining order. He quickly ran over and saluted. “Mr. Kuro!”
“You take care of it.”
Kuro said and left from here.
This kind of scene did not happen only once or twice. Tenshou Pavilion was being repaired and he had no place to stay, so he returned to the Golden Lion. Originally, he had nothing to do and came here to hang out, but he encountered such a scene every time.
It would be fine if he was really a general of the Country of Peace, but the key is that he is afraid that he will rebel. Now he is here licking his face as a general, and once he is overthrown, it will be very embarrassing.
Why was he, a Marine Admiral, chased out of the Country of Peace?
It doesn’t sound right.
“Kuro, Kuro!”
Not far away, Leda ran over with a few skewers of oden in her hand. She handed them to Kuro as if she was presenting a treasure and said, “This is very delicious. Come and try it!”
Kuro said angrily, “Eat, eat, eat. You only know how to eat. When are you going to share my worries!”
With that, he took all the Oden in Leda’s hand and swallowed it all.
“Wu…”
Leda growled like a little beast and snorted. She picked up her backpack and said, “I still have a lot!”
She took out a few pancakes and said, “Look, it’s a special Japanese persimmon cake from the Country of Peace. It’s very delicious. There’s more. This… Huh?”
She bit a few persimmon cakes with frosting in her mouth and reached out to continue digging. Then, she was stunned and took out a green fruit and looked at it. “What is this? A grape?”
Kuro stuck his head out and his eyes widened. He quickly snatched it from Leda. “This is…”
The fruit is green in color, a little like a whole grape and a little like a leaf. The light green leaf has a dark blue pattern in the middle.
Devil Fruit!
Leda is out!
Kuro came to the Country of Peace and killed only two people, Kaido and Lingling.
But neither of them has an index, Kuro can’t recognize it, but no matter which one it is…
These are all incredible things!
Kuro looked at Leda strangely. “You have a big item.”
“Eh? Devil Fruit? How can it be fixed? It took up my snack slot again!” Leda said angrily.
Kuro rolled his eyes. “Titch would probably die of anger if he heard you say that.”
“Rustle, rustle, rustle…”
The Den Den Mushi on his wrist suddenly rang.
Kuro opened it, and Den Den Mushi became iron-blooded and determined.
“Kuro.”
It was Sakasugi.
“Ah, Marshal Sakasugi,” answered Kuro.
Den Den Mushi smiled: “First of all, congratulations, the new Marine Hero, you have this title, this old man agrees.”
“?”
Kuro looked puzzled and immediately reacted. “Did the higher-ups send a report?”
“I’ve sent a report. I don’t think you will arrive at your current location, but it doesn’t matter. Come back. The higher-ups want to see you. In addition, Marine also wants you to report your work. We will talk about the details when you come back.”
Kuro glanced at the fruit in his hand and nodded. “Okay, I also need to go back.”
“Should we find someone to switch with you?” Sakasugi said.
“No need, I can still eat here, that’s all.”
Kuro hung up and looked at Leda. “You heard everything. Are you coming back with me?”
Leda shook her head. “I haven’t eaten enough.”
“Okay, you eat here.” Kuro nodded and suddenly called, “Wilbur!”
“Yes! Mr. Kuro!”
Wilbur flashed.
“You guys stay here and don’t have any accidents, and ensure the stability of the Country of Peace. I have to go back to the headquarters. By the way, do you know where Kuzan is?”
Wilbur thought for a moment and said, “General Kuzan… No, Kuzan said he wants to go to the hot spring.”
Kuro nodded and walked forward with the fruit.
Leda also ran to other places to eat. Her Oden was all robbed by Kuro and she had to buy more.
Wilbur looked at Kuro’s receding back and looked back at the people who stood up because of Mr. Kuro’s departure and nodded thoughtfully.
Then, he took out a small notebook and wrote on it while muttering, “Mr. Kuro said: Don’t kneel, don’t kneel, I’m not kneeling.”
He put the notebook on his chest very solemnly and took out a golden-covered book and continued to write, “Black Snake and Kaido represent the old power. I’m afraid that before this, generations of generals will make them kneel, but the new Marine…”
He looked at the people and shouted, “The old order makes you kneel, but the new order makes you stand up!!”
… .
Of course, there is a hot spring in the City of Flowers. It is in a hot spring and is also the largest one in the City of Flowers. Generally speaking, the first time you go to the hot spring, you will definitely find a big place. So after finding this hot spring, Kuro immediately found Kuzan.
At this time, he was lying on the edge of the hot spring with his head on his arm, looking very comfortable.
Kuro walked in with the fruit and curled his lips at him. “Yo, you seem to be enjoying it.”
“Ah… it’s you.”
Kuzan opened his eyes and glanced at the fruit in his hand. He smiled and said, “You brought a gift to visit me. You are too polite.”
“You can’t drink. You go to the dog’s table.”
Kuro rolled his eyes and said, “I have to go back to the headquarters. If you have nothing to do, help me watch this place. I owe you a favor.”
With Kuzan here, Kuro is absolutely at ease. With his freezing ability, who can come up from Carp Falls?
“Oh? Sure, I plan to stay here anyway. I was thinking of finding you an official position.”
Kuzan smiled and raised his arm from the hot spring.
“Cut it out.” Kuro waved his hand and suddenly looked at the upper body of Kuzan. There was a strange mark on the scar on his shoulder.
A crimson spider tattoo occupied his entire scar. On the spider’s body, there was a large symbol—6.
“Well…”
Following Kuro’s gaze, Kurzan pointed at the tattoo on his shoulder and said meaningfully, “Don’t you think this tattoo is very good?”
