Raleigh had come back. Kuro had known that for a long time.
In the Sabaody Archipelago, his life force is the strongest.
However, as long as he did not cause trouble and obediently became his plasterer, even if he occasionally stole something, Kuro would not care.
He and Rayleigh minded their own business. After all, such an old guy was unusually annoying.
However, he had been back for so long and it seemed that there was no trouble. Xia Qi must have passed the message and Kuro left him alone.
As long as he stays here obediently, when Straw Hat goes out to sea later, he can even go to the headquarters to 'report' and pretend not to see it.
He loved to send away trouble.
Not long after, Crowe completed Kuro's instructions and walked into the office and said, "Mr. Kuro, I have contacted Mary Jo."
"Okay, let's go." Kuro nodded and stood up to walk out.
"Hey, Kuro, cape."
Leda took the cape from the hanger and jumped up to put it on Kuro.
With his cloak fluttering, Kuro walked outside. There were already people waiting outside.
"Mr. Kuro, I will guard this place well!" Wilbur shouted.
"It's like I'm going to the afterlife. There's no need to be so formal. I'll be back in a few days."
Kuro rolled his eyes and said to Sentomaru on the other side, " Sentomaru, I'll leave Cruise to you."
"Don't worry, I can do it." Sentomaru patted his chest.
Wilbur and Sentomaru, one inside and one outside, happened to form Sabaody Archipelago's "Absolute Defense". Just as Sentomaru believes that he is the man with invincible defense in this world, Kuro is actually not worried about him in Sabaody Archipelago.
Kuro knew that Sentomaru was very strong.
His Haki level is in the third stage, "External Release", and he is one step away from reaching "Internal Destruction". If he goes higher, he will be like Kuro, grasping the highest Haki.
The third stage of Haki is almost always successful in the first half, and he also has a 'Peaceist'.
Sentomaru entered the Marine mainly to let the Pacifista play a role.
Sabaody Archipelago is the end point of the first half, and pirates must pass through. The Pacifista guarding here is very effective.
After all, the cost of building this thing is equivalent to a large military ship, and the overall combat power is equivalent to the concentration of a warship.
Wait …
Isn't that Shipman?
"Let's go."
Kuro waved his hand and said goodbye to the remaining cadres with Crowe and Leda. He brought a group of Marines to the World Government station in Sabaody Land and went to Mariejois through the elevator.
In addition to Crowe and Leda, he also needed underlings.
How can people not have face?
Although he didn't like fighting, as an old Marine, he still had to have some face.
Even a derailed idiot like Garp would bring a bunch of followers wherever he goes.
If you have an underling, you don't have to do anything yourself. You still have face.
Although he could fly, there was no need for him to bring along Clodagh and his subordinates.
If you have to use your own ability for everything, why do you need a Battleship?
There is a huge and long flight of steps from Sabaody Land to Mariejois, and above the steps is the door to Mariejois.
"Open the door."
Kuro said angrily to the two soldiers in iron armor guarding the gate with spears.
He really had no patience for these people.
"Yes!"
The soldier who had already received the news saluted and picked up Den Den Mushi to inform the people inside. Then, with a creak, the heavy door was opened, revealing the full appearance of Mariejois.
Leda and Chloë had been to this place before. They had a tacit understanding not to take the stone road in the center of the avenue but to walk on the road next to it.
No one was willing to leave that place.
Leda had long known with her Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki, and after Kro's Kenbonshoku (Observation) Haki increased, she also knew what kind of sins were hidden under the automatic stone road.
"This kind of thing… It makes people unhappy once."
Crowe looked at the stone path and pushed up his glasses. The back of his hand was faintly showing blue veins.
Ever since he saved a dancer in Sabaody Archipelago, he had an instinctive resistance to slaves.
"Speak less, this thing…"
Kuro picked up a cigar and touched it on his body. He frowned and waved at a Marine.
The Marine instantly understood and took out the matches on his body and lit the cigar for Kuro with both hands.
"This thing is not something you can control."
Kuro exhaled smoke, but his face began to look a little unhappy.
He did not think of the reason for Mariejois. It was also this factor.
If you can't see him, how can you be an ostrich? If you see him… you will be unhappy.
"Yes?"
As he walked, he raised his eyebrows and looked in the direction of Pangu City.
There was an aura with great vitality.
"Green Bull? It's really vigorous. I heard that it has been three years since it ate…"
Kuro muttered, "I don't know how to live? Can handsome really be eaten?"
He had heard that Green Bull was very handsome, but he had never seen him in person.
As a Marine 'new recruit' of the new Marine, Marine Headquarters did not say that those who wanted to curry favor with Green Bull were not qualified, and those who were qualified to curry favor with Green Bull were disdainful.
Just like Brother Yixiao, although it is said that he has become a general, his own faction is not stable at all. The Marines gathered around him are just doing their duty and there is no fixed faction.
Moreover, Green Bull is rumored to be very lazy, like a geek. In the case that he himself is unwilling to meet, naturally no one knows his true face.
There must be someone who knows about it, but Kuro himself stays in Sabaody Archipelago and has never seen him, so Kuro doesn't know.
"That's not right… I'm so handsome and I still need to eat. Is there anyone more handsome than me in this world?"
Kuro raised his eyebrows in disbelief.
A group of people passed by Pangu City and were about to reach the other end of the entrance and go down the elevator there. At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from behind.
"Hey, Marine, Marine!"
A somewhat silly voice sounded behind him. Kuro turned his head and saw a fat fool with a head like a shovel handle swaying from side to side like a monkey, raising his hand and shouting loudly.
"It's Charles…"
Crowe whispered to Kuro.
"Ignore him."
Kuro turned his head and prepared to move on.
"Hey, Marine, handsome Marine! The handsome Marine over there, don't go!"
In an instant, Kuro stood still and turned his head. "Why are you calling me?"
Charles ran over, took two small breaths and bared his teeth at Kuro. "It's really you, Marine, the advice you gave last time was very good. Now that the danger of Sabaody is over, I want to go down and catch the slaves."
