After eating and drinking, the Marines were bragging in twos and threes. Crowe got up in silence and walked towards the Battleship.
What a good opportunity!
A cold light appeared in Barker's eyes. He looked around and stood up with an anxious look. "Lieutenant Kuro, I'll go take care of it…"
Kuro waved his hand, indicating for him to leave quickly.
Barker also walked in the direction of Crowe. In the darkness, he gradually disappeared and when he reappeared, he turned into Crowe.
He didn't kill Crowe. He might not have enough time. Besides, his main target is not him.
Barker rushed to the highest tent. As soon as he arrived, he said, "Mr. Kuro, I need to talk to you."
He imitated Crowe, speaking calmly and pushing up his glasses.
When he pushed his glasses up, he felt that something was missing.
Is he missing a belt or something…
Kuro glanced at him. "What's the matter? Huh? Didn't bring anything? Do you want to practice body techniques today? Okay, let's go."
Kuro patted his butt and looked at Leda, who was still eating, and couldn't help but roar, "Leda! Stop eating and train!"
At this time, Leda was still holding a piece of leg meat with bones in it. Listening to Kuro's words, she chewed the meat together with the bones and followed Kuro.
'Training?'
Barker was delighted. Good training. He was worried about an excuse to trick Kuro away. Now he didn't even need an excuse!
The few of them walked towards the interior of the island and soon disappeared without a trace.
After a while, Crowe came with a small suitcase and a knife at his waist. Looking at the empty tent, he tilted his head and there was a question mark in his glasses.
"Where is he?"
… .
Inside the island, Kuro and others walked in and gradually distanced themselves from the people.
At night, the stars and moon hide, and clouds come from the east, covering the sky.
Without lighting, the deeper they went, the darker it became.
Barker walked at the back and looked at the two gradually blurred figures in front of him. He gradually smiled.
He could do it now!
Kill these two people and pretend to be Kuro, then go directly to the Grand Line.
Barker's fingers moved slightly, ready to strangle the big and small man. Just as his footsteps quickened, Kuro suddenly stopped and turned to look at him.
The dark clouds dispersed, revealing a huge full moon. Under the moonlight, the island seemed to be covered with a layer of silver, gradually revealing its form.
Kuro stood in an open space, surrounded by the peak of the mountain.
The silver scattered and also covered Kuro, making him glow with a faint light, and the exposed shadow covered his face. No expression could be seen, but it was a little cold.
He was discovered?!
Barker was shocked and he stopped his action and stared at Kuro with fear.
Kuro scratched his head. "Well, here it is. Leda, he wants to practice body techniques, you fight him."
"It's me again… I don't want to fight. I just ate something. I don't want to be hungry so soon. I'm so tired."
Leda shook her head. "Speaking of which, I seem to have sensed danger just now. Are there wild beasts here?"
"Impossible, you must feel wrong. How can there be a beast here?" Kuro flatly denied.
"Why?"
"I know this place too well. How many years have I been here? In the early years, there were wild beasts, but they were all gone."
"Familiar?"
Leda looked around and suddenly realized something. She pointed at the mountains in surprise. "You… you made it?!"
She thought of Kuro's so-called training method, which was to keep cutting mountains. Previously, she was curious about where those mountains came from and how there were so many mountains for Kuro to cut in the sea.
Now she had found it.
There are really so many mountains!
Kuro nodded. "I really miss it. I remember the days when I was cultivating. Forget it, I'll do it today. I haven't exercised for a long time. This place… does need some exercise."
'What do you mean?'
'He wasn't noticed?'
'I'm glad they didn't find out.'
From the looks of it, he wants to train with me?
Do these people have the habit of training alone at night?
Great!
This is the opportunity to kill!
Kuro twisted his neck and crooked his finger at Barker. "Hit me."
You asked for it!
Barker suddenly rushed out, his five fingers stretched out two fingers, like a sharp sword, piercing through Kuro's neck.
He is good at swordsmanship, but without a knife, it does not mean that he has no combat power. Against such a person, there is no need for a knife.
One hit to kill you!
Snap.
A hand grabbed his wrist and no matter how hard he tried, he could not move an inch.
How is that possible!
Barker's eyes widened. This move of his was modeled after the thrust of swordsmanship. It was not weaker than holding a sword, and its speed was not weaker than the elites of Marine Headquarters. He knew that some of those elites knew a high-speed move, and the speed of his move was comparable to that speed.
How could a mere Second Lieutenant catch him?!
Kuro looked at him in disdain. "What's wrong with you? After practicing for so long, you came with me for this? Didn't you invent a new move?"
"Using the arm as a knife to stab?"
Next to him, Leda said, "Chloe, your speed is decreasing instead of increasing."
Kuro twisted his hand and Barker felt his entire body fly up and was thrown to the ground by Kuro. The huge force made his body slide along the ground and hit a small stone mountain not far away.
"Hurry up, if your new move is this, then you are finished today."
Kuro clenched his fists, full of disappointment.
He was disappointed!
Basically, as long as he was free, he would take turns training Crowe with Leda, forcing him to increase his combat power.
At that time on the Judicial Island, Kuro felt that Crowe's combat power had been strengthened. Otherwise, he could barely tie with Bruno, and he was even a step away. Bruno has the ability, but he has nothing.
Up until now, he was still talking about how he invented a new move yesterday, but what was this?
His standard was not as good as before.
Barker staggered up and coughed a few times. That blow almost knocked his prototype out.
What's going on?!
The two people in front of him don't seem very strong.
He is Buck Arlo, the 'Evil Pretender', a great pirate with a bounty of 370 million!
What's going on?!
Was it a mistake?
Barker swallowed and stared at the knife at Kuro's waist. "My new move requires a knife."
"So why didn't you get it before? It's so troublesome."
Kuro untied [Hua Zhou] and threw it to Barker. "Hurry up, let me see it."
Barker held the knife and was shocked. This was the aura of the [Famous Knife]. He knew something about knives. He looked at the cloud pattern and then at the handle. Wasn't this one of the 50 workers, Huazhou?
"Humph, humph."
Barker smiled evilly and looked at Kuro. "For a swordsman, with a good sword, his combat power will double!"
He held the handle with both hands and pointed the blade at Kuro. His body was slightly bent like a leopard.
"Look carefully, this is the last scene you will see, Sword Skill: Meteor!"
Whoosh!
Barker's body turned into an afterimage, and a cold light shone under the moonlight, like a meteor drifting on the earth, heading straight for Kuro's chest.
