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

Kuro hasn’t 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, “Grandpa, let’s go.”
Kizaru shrugged and picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Kuro’s. Kuro’s 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, “You must be looking for me for something. What is it?”
“Hehe, aren’t you asking the obvious?”
Kuro smiled and said, “Is my thing… ready?”
Kizaru touched his chin and thought for a moment and said, “It 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.”
“It’s best if you can get it. The sea hasn’t been very peaceful recently, and I have to guard against it,” Kuro said. “You know, the reputation of that straw hat kid is now comparable to Yonkō (Four Emperors).”
Kizaru picked up a piece of sashimi and put it in his mouth. “Didn’t you end the Yonkō (Four Emperors) era?”
“You do this too?”
Kuro rolled his eyes. “Is that called the end? It’s just a title. In essence, they should do whatever they want. Tiki, Straw Hat, Kidd, and that idiot Law. They are the new Yonkō (Four Emperors). Old people don’t rise up in the new generation. It’s not uncommon in the sea.”
“Oh, the new Yonkō (Four Emperors).” Kizaru opened his mouth and said, “That’s so scary, but I’m just a child…”
Kuro said angrily, “You are the same as Kurzan after you stepped down.”
“Kouzan…”
Kizaru smiled. “I heard that he is here with you?”
“It’s just a part-time job. It’s not counted as mine. I can’t see him all day long and he comes back occasionally. I also called him this New Year, he should be on the way.”
Kuro picked up the wine glass and took a sip himself. He chuckled and said, “It’s quite a coincidence. One retired, one resigned, and there’s also me, who has almost left the headquarters.”
“So you have to go back and report your work. You can’t delay it for too long. After you go back with me this time, you can also report your work.”
“Alright, I haven’t been back for a long time. I’m 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.” 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, “So, when will you act?”
“Action?”
Kuro raised his eyebrows. “How 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 can’t be alone here. Once I leave here, it will be a chaotic hell.”
“Oh, you weren’t like this before.”
“Admiral, Admiral.”
Kuro sighed. “You gave up your position to me. I can be considered to have taken some responsibility. I can’t 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 can’t 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.”
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 can’t all go out. Only a few of them go out. Even so, half of them can’t 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.
‘What?’
The Country of Peace has a high combat power per capita?
How high can it be?
‘Is there one on the second floor?’
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 doesn’t raise idle people. Don’t you want to be an Oden? You have to suffer first.
He doesn’t want Yamato to do things like parading naked on the street, but he has to do other labor, and he can’t be detained in Pallas’s 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 Kaido’s daughter and he also recognizes her. There is a trend of reestablishing a ‘Hundred Mine Pirates’.
But it doesn’t matter. With Seastone, Kuro is not afraid of this. If it really doesn’t work, he will directly roll the Pallas’s 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 can’t withstand it, why is his martial strength strong?
Per capita?
If everyone is useful in the sea, there will be no Yonkō (Four Emperors).
“That makes sense, but that’s not what I’m talking about.”
Kizaru looked at Kuro and smiled. “I mean, when are you going to be a Marshal?”
“Cough, cough, cough!”
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, “Me? Marshal?!”
“Yes, with your age and your current position, after Sakasugi retires, you will definitely be a Marshal. Well, it’s really scary.”
Kizaru opened his mouth with an exaggerated expression. “Once you become a Marshal, with your current power, you might go against the World Government.”
“Come on, Marshal Sakasugi is only 57, not even 60. Let’s wait until he’s over 70, and why should I go against the World Government?”
“Huh? Dressrosa is yours, right? And West Blue and North Blue, plus the current Country of Peace, you…”
Kizaru chuckled and said, “I can arm wrestle with the World Government.”
“Where did you hear that from? Did you run to that stupid Tenryubito?”
Kuro rolled his eyes. “I 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 can’t really think that it has something to do with me. It’s 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, Leda’s brother is Lowe. It’s as simple as that. Of course, I also have a business there.”
