Headquarters.
"Mr. Kuro wants the best materials to make a ship! Hurry up and list the best materials!"
"What?! You're asking me who Mr. Kuro is?! Lucilu Kuro! The direct subordinate of Admiral Kizaru, Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un, Admiral alternate, the man who defeated Golden Lion, Ledfield and Bundy Walde, you don't know him!"
Wilbur rushed to tell him.
"Hey, Marine, do you know Lucilu Kuro? Vice-Admiral Kuro, he wants to get a ship, the best materials, and the most atmospheric seat ship. Can you find a good designer? If you find one, Mr. Kuro will not treat you badly!"
"Who am I? I am Wilbur! [Big Gun] Wilbur is a little colonel under Mr. Kuro, but don't look down on me, I will become Mr. Kuro's spear sooner or later! Now Mr. Kuro has entrusted me with a heavy responsibility, my words represent Mr. Kuro's request!"
"Hello, I am Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un's subordinate. Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un, do you have any channels? As long as the ship is successful and Mr. Kuro is satisfied, he will not mistreat you. I, Wilbur, am willing to accept you as a subordinate."
"What? You are a Rear Admiral? You want to join Mr. Kuro? I can't guarantee this, but I am willing to ask for you."
Wilbur went on a killing spree.
The entire Headquarters was a mess for him.
Mr. Kuro wants a good seat ship. This is a big deal. Wilbur wants to do it seriously.
Then, he found that the materials provided by Headquarters itself could not meet Wilbur's expectations. Even if he used all the materials, it would only be slightly higher than other Vice-Admiral spaceships.
How can that be!
Mr. Kuro wants the best materials!
But since I can't do it…
Then let's go all out and ask Marine colleagues for help!
From ordinary Marines to the upper echelons of the Marine, everyone knew that Kuro wanted to make a Vice-Admiral's flagship with great materials and a handsome style.
But what can ordinary Marines do? It's fine if they just listen, but some mid-level Marines are different.
Especially those marginalized people who know that Marine is currently divided into factions and they don't have any factions themselves.
In their eyes, this is not about getting a spaceship. This is about recruiting subordinates.
Some marginalized people wanted to live their own lives, but they were willing to deal with Kuro, the prince of the Kizaru Sect, who would definitely be a general in the future. They all contributed their treasures.
And some fringe generals who want to join Kuro are naturally more enthusiastic.
Those who had the money to pay and those who did not want to offend others joined the army of messengers. In a few days, the entire Marine Headquarters knew about it.
What a good ship…
In other words, Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un is going to show his edge in the New World.
After all, a ship is the same as a pirate ship. It is unique and represents a Marine's philosophy.
Entering the New World with such a ship means that they are going to have a good arm-wrestling with the pirates of the New World.
When it comes to Marine's face, they will naturally help.
This news even reached the Admiral.
"Oh, Kuro, have you changed your mind?"
Kizaru picked up the phone thoughtfully and dialed a number.
… .
Mary Joa.
"What's so fun recently? It's so boring."
In the residence of the tenryubito, Charles, who looked like an idiot, swirled red wine and said to his subordinate standing at the side, "Is the martial law of Sabaody Archipelago not over? Where is Brother Kuro, why didn't he contact me?"
If I ignore his snot, he might be an elegant person… probably.
"Saint Charles, Vice-Admiral Kim Yuen has been transferred to the New World, and now the one guarding Sabaody is Colonel Sentomaru. There is no news from him for the time being, and we don't know if Sabaody's martial law has been lifted, but something happened before, the Straw Hats… They appeared in Sabaody and were driven away by Vice-Admiral Kim Yuen." The man in black answered honestly.
"Eh?! That hateful straw hat! Can you fix it? It's still alive. No, I have to tell the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) to catch them and kill them!"
Charles thought of the punch he got back then and gritted his teeth.
"Did Brother Kuro go to the New World? It's a pity that I couldn't say goodbye to him. He is an interesting and loyal person, and he is very respectful to me… Well, there is no gift for him. Does he want a slave?"
These words made the man in black sweat.
Although he is a guard of tenryubito, he is not stupid.
Who doesn't know that that man hates slaves the most now? Back then, he used the martial law period in Sabaody Archipelago to release a large number of slaves, and it was legal and just. You still want to give him slaves?
You will be fine, but it is hard to say who will give it to you.
In a hurry, the man in black thought of the recent rumors and said, "Vice-Admiral Kim Jong-un seems to be working as a passenger ship in Headquarters recently, the best and largest passenger ship. If Charles Saint has any suggestions in this regard, I think he will be grateful."
"Ship? Ship?"
Charles thought for a moment and said: "Speaking of which, do I have anything to give him?"
"Saint Charles, you bought a piece of 'Adam' wood a few years ago and were going to use it to make a wooden boat to swim in the lake, but you found that piece of wood too big and it became useless later," the man in black reminded.
"Do I have this thing?" Charles thought about it and said.
"Yes, you do," said the man in black.
It was an auction a few years ago. He was also present at that time. The auction produced a Treasure Tree [Adam] wood and it was won by Charles. However, he later felt that he could not make a wooden ship and put it there.
The materials of Precious Tree only want to make a wooden boat to swim in the lake?
You think it's too big and you still despise it?
What a waste!
"Forget it, if that thing is useful, find it and give it to Brother Kuro."
As Charles spoke, he thought about it again. "But it's not enough. What's the use of a broken wood? It's better to send some gold… By the way, send some gold to Brother Kuro."
"Yes, I understand. I will definitely bring it."
The man in black breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Treasure Tree Adam is precious and the amount of gold given by Charles is definitely not small, it is nothing for tenryubito.
Better than sending slaves.
If he really sent the slave over, he would probably be sent away.
His predecessor seemed to have offended that man and did not survive…
Although it was not done by that man himself, it was more terrifying because he could not find any evidence.
For that kind of person, just let him fight with the smelly pirates in the New World. Don't come to the first half of the game, and don't come to Sabaody and Mariejoia. Otherwise, the Draconians may be fine, but their subordinates may not live well.
