Absolem was quickly brought up. At this time, in addition to being bound by Seastone Handcuffs, he was also tied with a big iron chain.

Although Seastone prevents him from using his abilities and he will lose his stamina, Kuro can’t guarantee that his stamina will allow him to get rid of ordinary Marines. It would be bad if he runs away.

“Go over!”

The captain pushed Absolem to the ground and pulled out his weapon, looking at him warily.

He groaned, his head still raised as he glared at the few people in the office.

“Tell me…”

Kuro exhaled a mouthful of smoke. “What is the situation in the Tada Kingdom?”

Absolem sneered. “Don’t joke, Marine, how can I tell you.”

As Kuro exhaled, the smoke lingered in the air as if it had a direction and flew into Absolem’s mouth and nose.

“Wu, cough, cough!”

Absolem’s eyes widened and he coughed violently, but no matter how he coughed, the smoke still surrounded his mouth and nose and refused to come out.

That feeling was suffocating.

Absolem’s eyes were bloodshot. Even so, he still gritted his teeth and said hatefully, “Don’t… underestimate the pirates!”

The smoke re-emerged from his mouth and nose and scattered in the air.

Kuro sighed. He was just experimenting in case this person was a coward.

But it was obvious that the great pirates all had their own uniqueness.

Seeing that Kuro seemed to have given up, Absolem smiled. “Oh? Are you afraid of me dying? It’s useless. The moment I was caught, I was ready to die. No matter what kind of harsh torture, I will not say it. Pirates also have the backbone of pirates.”

“Interrogating intelligence?”

Hugo was excited now. “Leave it to me!”

He walked directly to Absolem and licked his lips. “I haven’t seen a pirate for a long time. Don’t worry, I will treat you well! What I liked most in the past was to discuss their lives with pirates. What is the purpose of every pirate going to sea, why do they want to go to sea, and what kind of Epics are there. These are all stories! Although pirates are enemies, they are worthy of respect because they are enemies.”

He squatted down and stretched his hand directly to Absolem’s old face. He said obsessively, “You are a pirate from the old era, you must know a lot of secrets. The stories of pirates’ adventures and your own stories. Ah, God, I can’t help but listen carefully. It’s okay, talk slowly, I have a lot of time to accompany you.”

Absolem’s eyes widened as he watched the fat hand approach his face. He hurriedly said, “It’s ability, it’s all ability! I said, get this fat pig away from me!”

“Yes?”

Kuro tilted his head, but when he thought about it carefully, it didn’t seem wrong.

Anyone who encounters such a talkative person will not be able to hold on, especially when this person not only said it but also said it.

Hugo was a little angry. “Fat pig… I am a symbol of peace, okay? The peaceful environment makes me eat a lot and I will get fat. How can you say that I am a fat pig?”

“Lieutenant Colonel Hugo, stop.”

Kuro said, “Let’s get the information first.”

Hugo pursed his lips and stood up. “But you are a pirate and don’t know what peace is. I won’t argue with you. You can tell your story later.”

“My only request is to keep him away from me.”

Absolem gritted his teeth and said, “Otherwise, I won’t say it even if I die.”

Kuro suppressed his laughter and said, “Lieutenant Colonel Hugo, stay away first.”

Absolem watched as Hugo gradually moved away from him and was relieved.

“Hey, I gave you face. If you don’t get what I want, you know the consequences.” Kuro bit his cigar.

“Let me up first,” Absolem said dully. “I don’t want to talk to people on my stomach.”

Kuro nodded at the Captain, who grabbed the chain and let Absolem stand up.

“Humph… Actually, it’s nothing. You can’t stop it.”

Absolem chuckled and said to Kuro, “With your Kenbonshoku (Observation) that can break my ability, you should have seen it in the port. That seems to be the law, but it is actually a plaque of a story.”

“That, is ability. Do you know Witch’s Revenge?”

“Ah!”

Leda suddenly cried out, her left fist dragging her right palm, “Yes, that name, I have seen it!”

“Lida?” Kuro looked at her.

Leda thought about it and said, “I read this story when I came here before.”

“Witch’s Revenge? Isn’t that a forbidden book?” Hugo frowned.

“Ah? Isn’t that a bestseller? When I came back then, those books were very easy to sell.” Leda was also a little puzzled.

Seeing their puzzled looks, Absolem smiled maliciously.

“That is the ability. The content of that book is real. The residents here at night, just like in the story, turn into monsters and desire blood.”

“The person who you said gave you instructions?”

Kuro narrowed his eyes. “Then who? What ability? What is your relationship?”

“Ah… him, his name is Bluebeard.”

“As for what it looks like, I don’t know. I don’t know if it’s a man or a woman. I was found by him when I came here. Everyone is just cooperating. His book needs people to see it to be effective, but the kingdom seems to have discovered the effect of the book and sealed it very early.”

“But it’s useless, because there will always be people to see it, but that efficiency is too low until I appear. Under my ability, it can make people hallucinate. You think that the plaque you see is the law of the Tada Kingdom, but in fact, the moment you see it, you are affected.”

“But some of you have strong willpower and your abilities can’t affect you, so the existence of Sipatía can affect you. It’s too late, although it’s only a few days, what needs to be done has been done, hahahaha!”

Absolem laughed and said, “There is no sober place in the Kingdom of Tada, and this town of Tada will be the final harvest. Tonight, you will see what despair is. At that time, you will regret, regret that you should not be so sober!”

“You!”

Kuro sensed something at this time and just as he was about to get up, he saw Absolem lean back violently and his body penetrated the weapon held by the Captain behind him, piercing his heart.

“You… Do you want to die!” Kuro’s face was gloomy.

“Will you let me live? A Marine like you is not a simple person.” Absolem took a few breaths and his voice began to weaken.

His life force was gradually decreasing.

“Ah?! How can you die like this? I wanted to talk to you all night!” Hugo looked at him with wide eyes.

“Shut up, fat pig!”

Absolem glared at him and suddenly smiled. “Night? You can’t wait for night. Dead people… there is no night.”

With that, his head tilted to the side, his eyes widened, and he stopped breathing.
