Kuro would choose to help such a good person.

In Kuro’s eyes, this kind of person is a classic example of someone who hasn’t thought it through.

“Kuro!”

After a while, the door was pushed open. Leda was carrying a pile of snacks, followed by a few Marines carrying big bags and Crowe carrying a pile of packages.

Leda came in chewing a piece of bread and said, “You were looking for me?”

Kuro rolled his eyes angrily. “You can’t see anyone all day long. When you come back, you either eat or eat. Save me some snacks.”

“Dot…” n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“You’re doing it again?!”

Kuro directly interrupted Leda’s casting and said: “Sit still! Eat your snacks!”

“Oh.”

Leda nodded and went in and sat down on the sofa, chewing something. Marines in the back piled snacks in a corner and saluted and left. Crowe pushed up his glasses and said, “Mr. Kuro, the results are out…”

“How so?”

Kuro picked up his cigar and said, “I told you, I don’t listen to anything that makes me decide.”

“Yes, no. The higher-ups mean that since the king is dead, the matter is over and you can return to Headquarters,” said Crowe.

“Huh?”

This made Kuro stunned. “What did you say?”

He did not expect that Headquarters and the five old men would be so easy to talk to. This is a New World Joining Country. The last time, the small country of Corfu made the World Government so happy that they thought it was the time to improve the prestige of their World Government. They even publicized it. After the Kingdom of Corfu joined, the advertisements were even more overwhelming and they were very friendly to the Kingdom of Corfu.

Not to mention Astya, just the size and area of the Duchy of Faya is incomparable to the Kingdom of Korf.

It’s such a big country, and the higher-ups just quit?

“Did something go wrong and you really didn’t ask me to make a decision?”

After being in PUA for a long time, Kuro felt that something was wrong.

“No, Mr. Kuro, the World Government has also learned about the news of Astya. There are CP spies here and they have already informed the higher-ups of the news. The higher-ups have decided to let you go back as soon as possible and no longer interfere with the affairs here and avoid contact with Yonkō (Four Emperors), which will lead to war,” Crowe said honestly.

He also felt that something was wrong. As a subordinate who had been under him for a long time, especially when most of the things were solved by him, he was very clear about the characteristics of the World Government.

Mr. Kuro’s current status is not low. He is a general candidate and controls Shichibukai and ‘Sword’. Mr. Kuro can make his own decisions about Marine’s big and small matters. In addition to that position not being a general, what he does is similar to a general. Most of Kizaru’s matters are solved by Mr. Kuro, and Mr. Kuro is basically done by him except for the trivial matters of the battle position.

The more he did, the deeper he went into the Marine Corps, the more he knew about Kuro’s power.

He is also a Vice-Admiral now. In terms of power, he is nothing compared to Mr. Kuro.

Now the World Government actually asked Mr. Kuro to return it. Does this mean that they don’t trust Mr. Kuro’s strength, or…

Crowe’s expression turned cold and he pushed up his glasses again. This time his hands were shaking.

Or had he understood Mr. Kuro’s ambition?

As the person who has been by Kuro’s side for the longest time, although Kuro is hiding something, no, he is hiding something, he just doesn’t want people to know those things, but Kuro has been by his side for too long, some words and some articles, he is clear about them.

When G-3 was still around, he still remembered the declaration of rebellion in the documents from Mr. Kuro’s hometown sent by the businessman. Even if he only saw a few words, it still made his palms sweat.

Usually, Mr. Kuro likes to reveal some shocking words, such as ‘Tenryubito is retarded’, ‘a heartless capitalist should hang on the street lamp’, ‘feudal nobility is a stumbling block’, and so on…

This time, he even said something that made him sweat. That Sky Throne, from what Mr. Kuro said, it seems that someone is sitting on it?

That position is recognized by the World Government. The throne that no one can sit on shows equality, but from what Mr. Kuro said, that position is occupied!

That Sky Throne, where the credibility of the World Government lies, is occupied!!

Why would Mr. Kuro know?

What is the World Government hiding?!

Is there a drawback to this large government that unites most of the world like a civilized federation?!

In the beginning, Crowe thought that Kuro was so strong that he had some ambition to stay in East Blue for ten years.

Then Crowe, who was at the back, saw Kuro’s salted fish clearly and thought that he simply wanted to lie flat, didn’t want to be promoted, didn’t want to be famous, and was born afraid of danger.

But as the days passed, until he saw what Mr. Kuro wrote as a child, his thoughts began to change again.

I took it for granted!

Even his closest subordinate, Mr. Kuro, is deceiving people.

If it’s that ambition… then it really shouldn’t be known to others. Then we can only take one step at a time, just like an uncertain chess game. It’s a good thing that the chess pieces are useful, but if they are not, we can pretend that they don’t exist.

Only in this way can he safely take the final step.

At this moment, he suddenly had an epiphany.

That’s right. Otherwise, why can that idiot Kaz always be tolerated by Mr. Kuro? That’s not tolerance at all. That’s intentional!

Cass is Mr. Kuro’s idle chess piece, but now this chess piece has turned into a very important step.

Including David, the current king of Dressrosa …

Everything explained why Mr. Kuro was so indulgent and even said that he used his entire fortune to develop Dressrosa, and what he wanted was only a few percent of the profits. With his power, he could develop anywhere. There was no need to invest only in Dressrosa.

There is no need to stay in East Blue for ten years.

In those ten years, was he investigating whether he had this terrifying ambition since he was young!

Crowe is not stupid. He is very smart. Although he is often used by Kuro as a tool, now that he thinks, everything can be connected.

Mr. Kuro’s every seemingly casual move has a deeper meaning.

Otherwise, why would he refuse to leave? Logically speaking, he should have left happily.

Instead of wondering here …

Does he want to take this place and develop his own power?

Then as Mr. Kuro’s right-hand man and as a former pirate, Crowe immediately felt his blood rushing up.

Such ambition and such a plan are more exciting than any Yonkō (Four Emperors) or that so-called forbearing Blackbeard!

What Pirate King? That can’t compare to Mr. Kuro’s ambition!
