Chapter 791

Your Father Is Dead

“This power…”

Kaku swallowed a mouthful of saliva. “Although I know that the Golden Lion is very strong, this power…”

Lucci said lightly, “It’s normal. Among the younger generation of Marines, only he can be called a ‘monster’.”

Before becoming a general, the Three Generals were also called ‘monsters’ in the recruit training camp.

But after them, whether it was Smoker, Tina, or the recently famous ‘Loki Harbor Incident Hero’ Kirby, or the Granter who was rumored to have a demon in his left arm in the Marine base closest to Big Mom…

In front of this person, no one can be called a ‘monster’.

Luciru Kuro is a monster that has appeared in the traditional Marine since the Three Generals.

Lucci didn’t find it strange at all to have such strength.

“Mr. Kuro…”

Crowe transformed into his human form and said unwillingly, “I can deal with him. He is not my opponent.”

Kuro blew out a mouthful of smoke. “He is indeed not your opponent, but when you are done fighting, I can drown this island. We are here to inspect the World Government and take him away. Time is limited, we are not here for you to play.”

“Yes…” Crowe pursed his lips and lowered his head.

Forget it, it doesn’t matter.

Anyway, Mr. Kuro thinks he can win.

Talo has been recognized by Mr. Kuro, and he has taken another step on the path of his right-hand man.

Could Kaz?

Or Wilbur?

No, none of them can threaten my status!

Only he, Crowe, was still as steady as Mount Tai!

Kuro did not care what Crow was thinking. He moved his fingers at the heads of the pirates that had been cut open. A strong wind blew and rolled the heads, flying in a certain direction.

He promised a dead youth that he would use the pirate’s head as a memorial.

“Okay, go back…”

Kuro turned around and looked at the dead Noadi on the ground. He thought for a moment and said, “Bring his body with you.”

Several Marines obeyed the order and carried Noadi’s body towards Stone King City.

… .

Two hours later, in Stone King City, Aquitaine was waiting anxiously.

Although Marine was dispatched, and it was quite incredible, the lazy middle-aged Marine turned into a white light and disappeared with Marine, which shocked Aquitaine.

But they are facing rioting pirates. What if they fail… What should they do?

He has been a prince for so many years and is familiar with the domestic situation. These pirates are not all unknown. Although some big pirates have sailed with Straw Hat, some powerful pirates have stayed on the island.

Are those Marines their match?

If it fails …

Aquitaine clenched his fists. “Even if I fail, I will not admit defeat!”

He was ready to die for his country.

As a king, he would not submit.

“I’m back, I’m back!”

Suddenly, a servant shouted as he ran.

“The Marines are back!”

“You’re back?!”

Aquitaine was stunned. It had only been two hours. Did he come back so quickly?

Is it because there are no pirates?

Or… was it defeated?

Without waiting for him to think too much, the large white army in front of him gradually approached. When he could see them, Aquitaine found that there were no traces of battle on these Marines.

He opened his mouth and was about to ask if they were not fighting when he heard Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un in front of him say:

“Your father is dead.”

“???” Aquitaine’s mouth twitched.

This person… Why is he cursing?

He immediately felt depressed and a sense of grievance rose from his heart.

He has been eating and drinking well and his attitude is already the best, but this Marine is too much!

Even the people of the World Government who came to investigate can’t treat him like this!

He is here to be a member country, not a vassal country!

“I…”

Aquitaine frowned and could not hold it in. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly saw a few people carrying a familiar body in the rear Marine.

“Father, Father!”

His eyes widened as he looked at Noadi, who was completely unable to move and had his eyes closed. He was completely stunned.

Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un is not cursing, he is saying…really?

“How is that possible, he, he…”

Aquitaine pointed at Noadi’s body and shouted at the man in front of him: “How can he die! Father is very strong, he is very strong! Even that straw hat boy, Father fought with him for a long time before he was defeated!”

His eyes gradually turned red.

“Do you know something! Kim Luong, no, Kuro! You delayed so long before going. Did you know that my father would die? You did it on purpose, right! Why, why!”

He clenched his fists tightly, causing his entire hand to turn red and his body to tremble uncontrollably.

“Watch your words, Aquitaine,” Crowe warned as he pushed up his glasses.

“How can you make me pay attention to my words at this time? As a person, I also have dignity!!” Aquitaine roared.

Kuro bit his cigar and looked at Aquitaine. He said lightly, “Your father died in battle and got what he wanted.”

This sentence made Aquitaine freeze.

Like a thunderbolt, an image inexplicably flashed in his mind.

That was when I was little …

“Father, what is your ideal?”

The three-year-old was asking his young father.

“Ideal…”

His father smiled and told him, “Let the Kingdom of Korf be the first and the second. If possible, I want to die in battle.”

“Eh? Died in battle? What is dying in battle?”

“Died in battle…”

His father raised his head and looked at the setting sun. He paused for a long time and reached out to stroke his head.

“To die in battle is to die as a person with ideals.”

“This country needs to change. I don’t want them to be pirates. That will only cause the slow death of the Kingdom of Korff, but I can’t do anything. There are many ways to be peaceful, but what applies to Korff is only my ability… They will hate me, but eventually they will get used to it until they become a citizen like other kingdoms.”

“At that time, my duty as a king will be completed, but as a pirate… I also want to fight the enemy well and then die in battle for my ideals. This is the fate of most pirates, and I can’t be an exception. Unfortunately, this is contradictory. In the end, I can only complete one of my two ideals. Maybe… you can complete the first one in my place, and I can complete the second one.”

At that time, Aquitaine did not understand his father’s words and only felt that his father was talkative.

As he grew up, he gradually forgot about this matter because his father no longer had that smile and no longer spoke softly. Instead, he was filled with ruthlessness. That ruthlessness was terrifying and hateful.

When did he forget?

He had clearly seen his father order the doctor to concoct the medicine and send it to the sick miners.

But the miners are so far away, how could Father know… No one said anything about this intelligence, all the citizens feel that they are slaves, no one will sympathize with them.

When exactly did he forget about this?

Was it his father’s long silence, the rebellious heart that was aroused as he grew up, or the moment when Straw Hat came?

Noadi, his father, who ruled the kingdom for more than twenty years.

Before seeing his father’s body, he still thought that he could not live in his father’s shadow. He was the new king and he had escaped his father’s control.

But when he really saw his body, Aquitaine suddenly realized that he was not that powerful…

Because even if his father failed, he still exists. As long as he exists, Aquitaine will always have a big tree in his heart, even if he keeps denying it.

But now, the tree has fallen …

He did not have his father’s means, his father’s strength, or his father’s ability to control the kingdom for more than twenty years.

Those pirates rioted, but the reason why they did not attack Stone King City was because of their father.

My father is gone, I am really a king, I am no longer suppressed by others…

Aquitaine knelt on the ground and stared blankly at Noadi’s quiet face, the face that was no longer angry, no longer frowning, no longer unhappy.

He smiled, but his tears fell at this moment and he murmured, “I am now… a king.”

From now on, he will carry the lives and lives of his people… King.
