Clap clap clap!
Clap clap clap clap!
Sabaody Archipelago, Marine Station, a very rhythmic slapping sound came from the top office.
In the office, in the darkness, an unknown object squirmed and then a spark lit up and a cloud of smoke floated out of it.
Clap clap clap clap!
Outside the door, the knocking continued.
"Kuro! Do you still care!"
Leda's voice came from outside. "Shiba Land is going to become a pirate's nest. Don't you want to come out and see?"
In the office, light gradually rose.
An unknown object wearing a black coat with open lapels and fur on the collar was squirming. There was a cigar in the head of the object. Hearing the sound, the thing that looked like the head opened its eyes and slowly sat up.
"Pirate?"
The unknown object bit its cigar and blew out a mouthful of smoke. It said lazily, "Pirates and so on, can't you solve it yourself? A group of broken things, is it worth calling me?"
This unknown object gradually revealed its face with the light.
It was the sad-looking Lucilu Kuro.
Oh no, now I should shout Kim Luong.
Smack!!
The door was directly slammed open and Leda strode in and said self-righteously, "I'm not free! I'm going to watch the concert of Brook, the King of Souls. It's said that it's the last one and it's very popular. There was news about it in Sabaody. I finally got the tickets, how can I not watch it?"
With that, she raised the two tickets in her hand. "Hey, Kuro, you haven't been out for two months. Aren't you going out to take a look?"
It has been two months since Kurlo returned to Sabaody.
Every day, Marines have to deliver food.
After eating, he lay there as if he had lost his soul, muttering strange words from time to time. He was no different from a cripple.
Of course, this is limited to Leda's perception.
As for Crowe …
Walking in and lying out.
Over time, no one paid attention to him. They knew that he was in a bad mood, so no one dared to look for trouble at this time.
Originally, without Kuro, Sabaody could still be stabilized by their peaceful and stable life.
But that was in general.
And now is the time when the number of pirates entering the Sabaody Archipelago is the highest.
Even if Leda, Crowe, Sentomaru, and Wilbur are here, in the face of a large number of pirates, they have to protect the island and they have to go out to sea to patrol. In the end, they don't have that much energy and they are still taken advantage of.
After all, this island is not small.
According to intelligence, there have been a lot of new faces on the island recently, and some of them are big pirates on the bounty order.
This alerted Leda and she took the opportunity to make Kuro move.
"What's there to see outside? To see pirates? If they want to leave, let them go. As long as they don't break the rules here, what reason can stop a man from going out to sea?"
Kuro said sadly, "Don't bother me. Let me feel the last peaceful years. Maybe it won't be so easy after that."
"Eh? Are you really not going?"
Lida looked at the two tickets in her hand in frustration. "I finally got them…"
"What's so good about a lousy concert? Is there a concert in this world?"
Kuro rolled his eyes and suddenly froze. "Wait, whose concert are you talking about?"
"The King of Souls, Brook."
Leda took out a poster from somewhere and pointed at a skull with its mouth wide open as if it was shouting. "That's it. Skull singing. It's so rare."
"Hiss, this skeleton…"
Kuro rubbed his chin and perked up. "He looks a little familiar."
"Forget it, I won't cause any trouble."
Kuro waved his hand. "Tell them to get lost."
The appearance of this poster triggered his memory.
Thinking about it, it has been two years since the last time.
This time …
The Straw Hats began to gather.
His subsequent actions are already enough to make one's scalp tingle. Why did he provoke such a troublesome thing for no reason?
Let them go to the New World to cause trouble.
"Hey, aren't you going to see it?" Leda was disappointed.
"What do you want to go? No," Kuro said. "Go and see for yourself. Be careful and go home on time. Don't run around. Leave it to Crowe. By the way, where is Crowe?"
"He went on a cruise."
"Forget it, it's okay, close the door for me… Forget it, there's no way, that's it, I want to lie down for a while."
With that, Kuro lay down again, making Leda grimace.
… .
"Zoro, it's better not to go out for a while."
In the bar, Rayleigh said to Zoro, "Recently, the situation is a little different."
"I can see a little."
Zoro sat next to Rayleigh and Natsuki poured him a glass of wine. He took the glass and took a sip and said, "There are a lot of restrictions on the island, but I will pay attention to it. It should be fine."
"Not only that, I have bad news."
Reilly shook his head and said apologetically, "Your ship… is gone."
"As expected."
Zoro put down the wine glass and spun it. "The ship has been there for two years. It must be gone. It's just a pity that this is Franky's work."
"No, it's not that simple. Your ship was seized by Marines and is now in their station."
Reilly said, "I went shopping earlier. It should be over there."
"Oh? It didn't disappear? Isn't that good news?"
A sinister smile appeared at the corner of Zoro's mouth. "If the ship is still there, we can just grab it."
"It's not that simple…"
Reilly shook his head and looked out the window with a hint of bitterness. "The current Sabaody Archipelago is not so simple. Here, there is a Vice-Admiral. You should have seen him, Luciru Kuro."
"Who?"
Zoro thought for a moment and tilted his head. "No."
"Kim." Reilly said it again.
Zoro looked at the wine glass and pondered for a while. He turned to Reilly and said uncertainly, "Is it from the incense burner?"
Reilly said nothing.
"The one who defeated Ledfield?"
"Who is Ledfield?"
"…"
A vein appeared in Reilly's forehead. "Anyway, it's a very strong Marine. He's there. It's not easy to take the ship."
"Ah… you want to say it's dangerous."
Zoro nodded and the grin on his face grew wider. He patted the three knives on his waist and said, "Danger and so on, it has always been dangerous since we went to sea, but no matter what, we will take back the ship!"
I can't talk to this person anymore…
For someone who doesn't watch much news and doesn't know about the strong, talking for a long time is useless.
Reilly opened his mouth and held it back for a long time before saying, "Anyway, let's wait until you are all here."
