Flesh and metal pieces fell together, and the blood that burst out almost turned into a rain of blood, dripping on everyone.
“Sila… is dead?”
The burly man stretched out his hand to catch the blood rain and watched the flesh and pieces fall, his expression a little dazed.
Is that strange bird really gone?
“Hey, hit me!”
He turned his head and shouted at someone, but he found that the person said the same thing.
The two of them were stunned at the same time and stopped for more than a second. Then, they attacked at the same time and slapped each other hard.
It hurt.
The burly man felt so much pain that his tears came out.
But it was extremely real.
“Dead, he’s dead!!!”
The burly man’s tears gushed out. He knelt on the ground and grabbed the ground that was stained with blood and flesh.
“My wife, my child… Xela is dead, it’s over, it’s all over!”
“Cilla is dead!”
“It is defeated! Long live!”
“We finally don’t have to be exploited by Xela anymore!”
“Long live Little Brother!”
“Little brother is so powerful!”
The group of people were so happy that they almost jumped up. They were either smiling or crying.
This strange bird caused many of them to suffer. Although in the end, they came up with a countermeasure, there was always the unlucky one who was discovered by Xela and then eaten.
If not for the Whitebeard Pirates, their Nine Snakes Town would have long been gone.
Finally, he was finally killed.
Everyone was happy except for Shyri, who saw the Marine who suddenly squatted down. She suddenly remembered something and suddenly ran home, but soon she ran to Kuro with a basket full of food.
She mustered her courage and handed the basket to Kuro and said, “Marine Big Brother, I heard your hungry voice just now. These are for you!”
In her opinion, Kuro must be hungry, otherwise he would not squat down.
Kuro was pressing his hand against the ground and using his ability to pass from the ground to the dagger-like metal spikes and these scattered metal pieces. When he saw the little girl running over, he was stunned.
“Well, I am indeed quite hungry, but…”
Kuro pointed to his Marine cape. “I am Marine.”
“You saved us, just like Father. Eat. It is very painful to be hungry. When we were in the Land of Chaos a few years ago, we were also hungry. I know.” Shyri handed it forward again.
These words made Kuro look at her again and then he smiled. “Then I will accept it.”
He took Shyri’s basket, sat cross-legged on the ground, picked up a piece of bread and nibbled it.
The food in the basket was not rare. It was bread and apples, but the color of the apples was very good and the bread was very soft. One could tell that it had just been baked.
“Speaking of which, you just said that you were still in the Land of Chaos a few years ago?” Kuro asked.
Shyri replied, “Yes, a few years ago, this place was no one’s territory. Pirates often came here to rob. Later, Dad came and announced that this place was his territory. Only then did it calm down.”
With that, Shyri’s face dimmed. “Later, Xela came. My parents died when Xela came.”
“Ah… sorry,” Kuro said and stopped eating.
Shyri quickly shook her head. “This has nothing to do with Big Brother. Instead, I want to thank Big Brother. It was Big Brother who killed Xela. It turns out that there are good people in the Navy.”
Kuro glanced at her and said nothing.
“But Big Brother, I have a question.” Shirui looked at him and suddenly said, “Why do you want to catch Ace? Ace is such a good person. Ah, if it’s not convenient, forget it.”
Kuro finished his bread and took an apple to chew.
“Your name is Shyri, right?”
“Yes!”
“Do you think I’m a good person?” Kuro asked.
“Big brother is a good person.”
“Why do you think I’m a good person?”
“Because Big Brother protected us and defeated Xela.”
“Is it because of this?” Kuro looked at her.
Shyri cocked her head. ‘Or what?’
Kuro smiled. “But before I defeat this strange bird, I… No, in your eyes, Marines are bad people, right?”
Shirui hesitated and finally nodded, but she quickly explained, “But Big Brother is a good person!”
“You’re still too young. If you haven’t learned some things, you might not understand them when you grow up.”
Kuro chuckled. “You think I’m a good person, but I think I’m a bad person myself, because if this thing will cause me to die, I can ignore it.”
The environment in which people grow up causes them to have a different view of things. No matter how many good people there are in Marine, it is useless if there are no favors for the people of this island.
No matter how many bad pirates there are, they are good people because they are kind to this island.
Kuro knew this best.
So in this world, there is no right or wrong.
If you can’t see it, then don’t care. If you can see it, then don’t care. If you can’t care, there’s nothing you can do.
After all, the world is so dangerous. Staying safe is the number one priority.
Life is precious. Kuro felt that his life was equally precious.
He had never seen himself as a righteous person, nor as a hero.
He was just an ordinary person.
Do what ordinary people should do and live a life that ordinary people want to live.
Cultivating hard is to survive in this world.
Joining the Marines is to live more comfortably.
He did not want to make a contribution because it was too dangerous.
Other …
Kuro raised his head and looked at the sky. “Three thousand meters below, you and I are both cattle and sheep. Don’t worry so much. Pirate or pirate, Marine or Marine, it’s more important to think about what to eat at night.”
Shirui listened to Kuro’s words, looked at him and said heavily: “Big brother is a good person!”
Kuro sneered and shook his head. “So be it. Well, thank you for your meal.”
He stood up and patted his pants. “I’m not welcome here and it’s too dangerous. I’ll leave first.”
He looked at Shyri and suddenly reached out and rubbed her little head. “Try to live. The next world is very dangerous.”
“Then you can’t leave so easily.”
The voice sounded.
Kuro turned his head and saw a figure appear on a nearby hill.
The man had a pineapple head and was wearing a purple coat. He was naked inside and there was a tattoo of the Whitebeard Pirates on his chest. There was a blue waist wrap tied around his waist and a golden chain hanging from it.
Kuro looked at him and said lightly, “Whitebeard Pirates First Division Captain, ‘Immortal Bird’ Marco.”
Marco scratched his head. “I thought that this should be the period of Xela’s rampage and wanted to stop it, but I saw it explode from afar. Hey, Xela, you killed it, right?”
He looked down at Kuro and said, “What is a Marine doing here?”
“Would you believe me if I said I entered by mistake?” Kuro tried to convince Marco.
“Well, this… is not convincing.” Marco narrowed his eyes and whispered.
