Chapter 882: Kuro (1)
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Edward Webb, originally with a bounty of 480 million, was quite famous in the New World before he became Shichibukai.
At present, the news of Kuro reorganizing Shichibukai has not been spread out. On the sea, he is still Shichibukai.
This guy is a brutal but stupid person, controlled by Miss Bajin, who calls herself his mother.
However, it was rare that he did not have a pirate group and he only relied on himself to dominate the sea.
But in this case, there is something to say.
He defeated the remaining Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates alone, not just one person, but also the subordinates of the Captain.
The captains of the Whitebeard Pirates are actually not weak. Every one of them is famous in the New World. The Captain of the Whitebeard Pirates is actually not very unstable. The strong ones are very strong and the weak ones are also very weak, but they will fluctuate between the strength of a Marine Rear Admiral and a Vice-Admiral.
It was not comparable to those veteran elite Vice-Admiral, but the gap was not big.
After all, the people in this world are all bloody bulls and it’s very difficult to die. It’s basically a matter of time.
To be killed by Edward Webb alone, this man naturally needs to be taken seriously.
So… Kuro directly shook people.
“I’ve checked it out. Edward Webb is currently on the New World’s Parris Island.”
Three days later, Crowe reported to Kuro.
“Paris?”
Kuro frowned and said, “Where?”
Crowe pushed up his glasses and said, “Our front is still within the World Government’s scope. I heard that he found traces of Whitebeard’s remaining party.”
Kuro’s face collapsed.
What gives the World Government a headache is that wherever he goes, once he starts to destroy, the entire town will disappear.
Pirates and civilians will all disappear.
“Electricity, get people to gather and kill him before he does any major damage.” Kuro directly ordered.
“Yes!” Crowe responded and went down to turn on the electricity.
“Rawr …”
At this moment, the Den Den Mushi on the table rang.
Leda, who was sitting on the sofa and eating snacks, pointed at Den Den Mushi and said, “Kuro, the phone.”
Kuro picked up the microphone and said, “Moximus, this is Kuro.”
“Brother Kuro…”
Den Den Mushi made a heavy sound. Its eyes gradually closed and it became a blind person.
A smile!
“Ah… Brother Yixiao.” Kuro asked, “Are your injuries better?”
“It’s not serious, but I have been wanting to say something to you. I heard the news that you have confirmed the new Shichibukai… Why, I have always thought that you are someone with the same philosophy as me.” Den Den Mushi asked.
Snap.
Kuro slid the lighter’s roller and lit the cigar he was biting. He usually smoked this time. The cigar in the cigar box still had to be tasted slowly because there was not much stock.
“Hu…”
He exhaled the smoke and said slowly, “Brother, we have to look at the current situation of the world. You always hope that something like SSG will ban Shichibukai, but why do you want to cause trouble for yourself for no reason? SSG and Shichibukai are not in conflict. Pirates can’t be killed. Brother, you know this better than me. The best way is to let pirates fight themselves.”
“Mihawk, Hancock or Crocodile, it’s better to let them stand on this side to attract the attention of the pirates and our pressure will be reduced a little.”
Kuro did not agree with the new Shichibukai. He was a traditional Marine, an old-school Marine, and he naturally had the same arrogance as them. He agreed more with the old, famous, and strong people he had seen with his own eyes.
But Kuro knew a little about those Seventh Prince.
“The original purpose of Shichibukai’s establishment is not to check and balance the sea. The original purpose of the establishment is not because the higher-ups can’t do anything to those pirates and the pressure is too great to create this organization. The reason why they are Shichibukai is because they are powerful…”
Mihawk is the world’s number one swordsman. The more Kuro is able to discover the distance between himself and Mihawk, the more he is still a little short… In terms of swordsmanship alone, there is indeed some distance.
Hancock, that woman, is not weak herself.
Underestimating the people on the sea is a big loss.
As a Logia member, Crocodile doesn’t need to be mentioned. As long as he doesn’t want to fight you and wants to escape, he will start with a 50-50 chance.
These troublesome characters, pushing them to the opposite side is finding trouble for Marine.
Yixiao was silent on the other end of Den Den Mushi for a while and suddenly sighed and said: “Can you hold on to it? Brother.”
“I’ll try my best. After all, I’m planning this matter. I’ll definitely make it safe and beautiful. Besides, I still want you to help more, right? Now that the matter is settled, instead of thinking about those useless things, why not think about how to guide Shichibukai to a favorable position from us. Brother, think about it yourself. You don’t hate the existence of pirates, right?” Kuro said.
“Indeed, I don’t hate all pirates.”
A smile appeared on his face. “I understand what you mean. Are you looking for pirates that you don’t hate to be Shichibukai?”
“Yes, there are bottom lines, bright spots, and combat power. Although they are pirates, in some areas, their reputation may be higher than our Marine.” Kuro laughed.
There are people like Straw Hat in this world, and there are also people who are forced to go to sea to be pirates.
Kuro had seen many existences like the Dream Sect, so he had a balance in his heart. He knew clearly who could be a Shichibukai.
“Brother, the power of Shichibukai is now in the hands of our Marine. We can let whoever we want. I have changed the rules of Shichibukai, and the necessary sacrifices that let Shichibukai exist no longer exist.”
Kuro said, “After all, we haven’t seen the performance of the [SSG] yet, and it’s still unknown when this thing will be released by Vegapunk. If the [SSG] performs well, wouldn’t our right to speak to Shichibukai become stronger?”
“This is also why I want to talk to you…”
Den Den Mushi said slowly: “In that case, I agree with your rules.”
“That’s right, brother, we’re all colleagues, there’s nothing we can’t talk about. If you’re still angry, I’m almost done with the business here. Come to my place to play, my treat.” Kuro smiled.
“Oh, I’ll wait and see.” Den Den Mushi finally smiled.
“Okay, brother, I’m going to solve the problem of the historical legacy. I’ll talk to you later.”
After hanging up the phone, Kuro smacked his lips and said, “This brother… does have a grudge in his heart, but fortunately, it’s resolved.”
Yixiao advocates the abolition of Shichibukai, and Kuro advocates the transfer of Shichibukai power to the Marine. The two sides are divided, which is why Kuro doesn’t dare to look for Yixiao recently.
She was afraid that he would quit in a fit of anger.
Such a strong person can join the Marine for his own beliefs and can also leave the Marine for his own beliefs.
Because they were not traditional Marines in the first place. They just joined because of a belief.
Otherwise, why would this blind old man come here at the time of the World conscription? Wasn’t it because of Sakasugi’s ‘not seeking qualifications, but strength’ promotion?
Because status can fulfill their beliefs, but once they fail, it is hard to say.
“Hey, Kuro, is Yixiao angry?” Leda finished an apple and asked.
“Hey, calm down. What kind of person am I, Kuro? I’m a Marine courtesan and I have a good relationship with the Marine’s Admiral. Who in the Marine doesn’t give me face? It’s too easy to deal with an old blind man.” Kuro raised his head and said proudly.
Leda’s lips twitched and she looked at him with disdain.
Recently, no one wanted to beat him up. It was probably because his status had changed after he was promoted to a Great General candidate.
