1271 Why Do I Feel That It Has Something to Do With Me?

Kuro hasnât seen Kizaru for a long time, and he does miss him a little. The last time we met was a year ago. He asked the old man to do something for him. It has been a long time since we last met, so he must drink some.
Baohuang was in charge of the reception and made a square table with two bottles of sake and some side dishes. The two of them sat opposite each other.
Kuro took the bottle and poured a glass for Kizaru and another for himself. Then he raised the glass and said, âGrandpa, letâs go.â
Kizaru shrugged and picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Kuroâs. Kuroâs wine glass was deliberately lowered by half. After clinking glasses, the two of them finished the wine in the glass at the same time. Kizaru said, âYou must be looking for me for something. What is it?â
âHehe, arenât you asking the obvious?â
Kuro smiled and said, âIs my thing⦠ready?â
Kizaru touched his chin and thought for a moment and said, âIt should be soon. Vegapunk himself has mastered that kind of technology, but the thing you brought is more troublesome. If it were normal technology, he would have given it to you long ago. Vegapunk wants a better effect. Well⦠after your banquet, you can go back with me.â
âItâs best if you can get it. The sea hasnât been very peaceful recently, and I have to guard against it,â Kuro said. âYou know, the reputation of that straw hat kid is now comparable to YonkÅ (Four Emperors).â
Kizaru picked up a piece of sashimi and put it in his mouth. âDidnât you end the YonkÅ (Four Emperors) era?â
âYou do this too?â
Kuro rolled his eyes. âIs that called the end? Itâs just a title. In essence, they should do whatever they want. Tiki, Straw Hat, Kidd, and that idiot Law. They are the new YonkÅ (Four Emperors). Old people donât rise up in the new generation. Itâs not uncommon in the sea.â
âOh, the new YonkÅ (Four Emperors).â Kizaru opened his mouth and said, âThatâs so scary, but Iâm just a childâ¦â
Kuro said angrily, âYou are the same as Kurzan after you stepped down.â
âKouzanâ¦â
Kizaru smiled. âI heard that he is here with you?â
âItâs just a part-time job. Itâs not counted as mine. I canât see him all day long and he comes back occasionally. I also called him this New Year, he should be on the way.â
Kuro picked up the wine glass and took a sip himself. He chuckled and said, âItâs quite a coincidence. One retired, one resigned, and thereâs also me, who has almost left the headquarters.â
âSo you have to go back and report your work. You canât delay it for too long. After you go back with me this time, you can also report your work.â
âAlright, I havenât been back for a long time. Iâm afraid Sakasugi will talk about me again if I take something and go back to report. He has been talking a lot recently. After becoming a Marshal, even Iron Blood has been a little troubled.â Kuro shook his head.
Kizaru looked at him and raised his glass. He looked down at the clear wine in the glass and said faintly, âSo, when will you act?â
âAction?â
Kuro raised his eyebrows. âHow do you know? Recently, I have been wanting to eliminate the surrounding pirates. I have been ruling the Country of Peace for a year and it is almost stable, so I have to create a safe environment. I canât be alone here. Once I leave here, it will be a chaotic hell.â
âOh, you werenât like this before.â
âAdmiral, Admiral.â
Kuro sighed. âYou gave up your position to me. I can be considered to have taken some responsibility. I canât let you lose face. Besides, I plan to open the sea for the people of the Country of Peace. I have to let them out. Although this place is big enough, a lot of resources are sent from above. There are a lot of things missing. They canât always rely on the higher-ups to send them. They have to find their own way. If they continue to raise them like this, they will become useless.â
Closed-door training is not a good policy. The excitement outside has nothing to do with the Country of Peace. The only way to go out to sea is to be a Marine, but this group of Marines canât all go out. Only a few of them go out. Even so, half of them canât come back.
Everyone has a yearning for the outside world. In addition, if they are closed off for such a long time, the United Nations will become more and more useless. They will definitely open the sea.
âWhat?â
The Country of Peace has a high combat power per capita?
How high can it be?
âIs there one on the second floor?â
A group of rookies who had been ruled by Kaido for more than 20 years and did not dare to resist. They were not very high, at most Shichibukai.
Yamato?
Yamato is the daughter of Kaido, an orthodox pirate, not a citizen of the people of Yamato.
She is still working as a foreman in the moul mining area.
Previously, Yamato refused to surrender, causing Shichibukai to be given to Katakuri, but Kuro doesnât raise idle people. Donât you want to be an Oden? You have to suffer first.
He doesnât want Yamato to do things like parading naked on the street, but he has to do other labor, and he canât be detained in Pallasâs cat.
This woman is also quite capable. As a miner, she also became a miner leader and managed the people of the Beast Pirates who were still imprisoned in the mouls.
She is Kaidoâs daughter and he also recognizes her. There is a trend of reestablishing a âHundred Mine Piratesâ.
But it doesnât matter. With Seastone, Kuro is not afraid of this. If it really doesnât work, he will directly roll the Pallasâs cat and bury it all.
Take the Akagami (Red-Sheathed Nine Heroes) for example, this is where the martial strength of the Country of Peace lies, but at that level, even the current Shichibukai canât withstand it, why is his martial strength strong?
Per capita? n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
If everyone is useful in the sea, there will be no YonkÅ (Four Emperors).
âThat makes sense, but thatâs not what Iâm talking about.â
Kizaru looked at Kuro and smiled. âI mean, when are you going to be a Marshal?â
âCough, cough, cough!â
Kuro had just put a piece of steak in his mouth and coughed when he heard this. He pointed at himself and said in surprise, âMe? Marshal?!â
âYes, with your age and your current position, after Sakasugi retires, you will definitely be a Marshal. Well, itâs really scary.â
Kizaru opened his mouth with an exaggerated expression. âOnce you become a Marshal, with your current power, you might go against the World Government.â
âCome on, Marshal Sakasugi is only 57, not even 60. Letâs wait until heâs over 70, and why should I go against the World Government?â
âHuh? Dressrosa is yours, right? And West Blue and North Blue, plus the current Country of Peace, youâ¦â
Kizaru chuckled and said, âI can arm wrestle with the World Government.â
âWhere did you hear that from? Did you run to that stupid Tenryubito?â
Kuro rolled his eyes. âI admit that Dressrosa has my business, but Dressrosa really has nothing to do with me. No matter what, they say that it has something to do with me. Just because David always calls me Master, you canât really think that it has something to do with me. Itâs just that I chose this king, but the World Government also authorized me to choose this king. North Blue has nothing to do with me. As for West Blue, Ledaâs brother is Lowe. Itâs as simple as that. Of course, I also have a business there.â
